Turning off issues

I have a Macbook that when you turn it off and then close the lid, the computer does not turn off, it stays on and it eventually drains the battery.
I usually wait while the MAC OS turns off the laptop completely before closing the lid. However, the last two times that my girfriend and friend used my lap top they just clicked "shut down" and closed the lid, and both times the battery was totally drained and it was EXTREMELY hot because it was stuffed into my case.
Both my G/F and friend are Window users and their laptop goes through its shut down procedures after clicking "shut down" and closing the lid right away.
My questions is there a way to shut down the laptop and closing the lid right away and still allowing mac os to go through its shut down procedures?
iMac 20" + Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You should never close the lid (put to sleep) while the Macbook is actively doing something ...including shutting down. Wait for the extra 8 seconds after pressing the shutdown button ...or just close the lid and put it to sleep instead of shutting it down.

Ipod turn off issue

I ´m surprised for the many posts on people not being able to turn their Ipod´s by pressing the Play/pause button and nobody from Apple care to answer! It is definitively an Ipod firmware issue (the button works for other functions).
My Ipod refuses to turn off after disconnecting from PC Itunes. I have to have something playing first than pause than pause again and it will turn off most of the times...sometimes I have also to push back and for the Hold switch. When is coming a new firmware upgrade?

Well you can try putting the ipod into "Disk Mode" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651 and then connect it to the PC and restore it with the latest ipod updater 06-28-2006 to reinstall its firmware.
Now as for the "Next Firmware update" noone really knows til apple decides to release and announce it. Apple USUALLY will release a new version of iTUnes and a new ipod updater during or after one if its Big "Eventes/Announcements". Like the last update to iTUnes and ipod updater was on June, 28th 2006 right around the time they had the announcement of the niki+itunes deal/kit for the nano.
Theres BIG hoopla about an event apple has invited the press to Sept 12th 2006 in San Francisco, California. During or after the event they MAY release a new version of iTUnes and/or ipod updater, just have to wait and see what there event/announcement is for and what they release on there web site on that day. San Fran is like 8 hours behind London england and 9 hours behind the rest of central Europe, so it may be late in the day where you live when they do the event and release whatever there going to release
It may be sept 13th before people in europe see anything new, Because when its 12:30 at night (Sept 13th 2006) in Central Europe is only 3:30PM (Sept 12th 2006) in the afternoon in California USA

HTC 8X Windows Phone Texting, Missed Calls, and Turn-Off Issues!

First let me say that I've had my Windows 8x phone almost since they first came out and HAVE LOVED IT UP UNTIL the last 5 to 6 months so I don't think the problems are in the hardware or have anything to do with a "paper" SIM card (although - how could I know because we can't take the COVER off!)
Anyway, about 5 - 6 months ago, I started noticing the following:
my battery life (which used to be FANTASTIC) was occasionally dying very rapidly but then would be fine again
I'm getting "No Service" in places where I SHOULD BE.
My text messages no longer go through. Once and awhile I can get them to go through and then they're locked out again. I've tried all of the tricks people have mentioned on this board - sometimes they work; sometimes they don't. Nothing is consistent. Nothing seems to REALLY fix it.
My phone is turning off even when I DO still have quite a bit of battery left.
My phone will be sitting right in front of me, will NOT ring, and I'll pick it up later only to see that I've "missed" 3 calls!
I've been quite fed up with a phone that I USED to love and I've been quite fed up with Verizon!
SOMETHING has changed in the past several months and I wish SOMEONE would tell us what it is!
I contacted Verizon over the weekend and asked what could be done since I'm not eligible to upgrade until December. Based on everything I've read on this board, I wasn't interested in getting a replacement phone of the same type and I need a phone that works. I simply wanted them to waive my upgrade constraint so I could get a reliable phone. ONE representative tried to help me but our call was mysteriously cut off! He didn't call ME back and when I tried to call back in, I wasn't able to reconnect with him. The next rep I got was the typical drone that only knew how to follow the standard script and had me take my SIM card in and out to make sure it was installed properly (GIVE ME A BREAK!) etc., etc.! Once I successfully proved that I was not a Tier 1 bloody idiot, I had the pleasure of waiting two hours to be connected to Tier 2 support. (Thankfully after being hold for about 45 minutes, the rep offered to call me back and actually did once he reached Tier 2 support). Both reps acted as if they'd NEVER HEARD of these issues before but after stating THAT, surprisingly, the Tier 2 rep, was THEN able to tell me whether customers WERE or WERE NOT satisfied after receiving replacement phones.
Anyway - it looked like my only option was to agree to a replacement phone and their scary letter about how if I return MY phone it is is deemed "damaged" that I may be charged up to $500! Well, now that I look at it, the replacement phone has the same software version on it that MINE does so HOW IS IT GOING TO BE ANY BETTER THAN MINE IS?!
I am so disgusted. Verizon can break our phones but feels absolutely NO RESPONSIBILITY to FIX them and then treats US like we're at FAULT! All I want is a phone that works! I NEED a phone that works. And with the prices we're all paying, it is certainly a REASONABLE request!

Andrea -
Thank you. I do appreciate your response. I was hesitant to bother but I
did activate the replacement phone and I will admit that SO FAR (about 4
days) that it is functioning OK. I have it set to NOT do any updates. The
NEED to do that bothers me a bit but that may be the only way to "survive"
the situation. I am still having problems with spotty reception is some
locations, but at least it isn't telling me that I have no service. The
battery has been back to full functionality and I'm able to send and
receive texts again.
I'm still angry that this type of thing can happen and that Verizon makes
no concessions, but I do appreciate the replacement phone and hope that it
keeps working.
Thanks again for your response.

IPod Nano turn off issue!

after pressing the play/pause button for seconds to turn off the iPod nano, i swich the hold button to "Hold" position. is the iPod now on or off?

FYI:

MG 3250 new printer turns off automatically after a few seconds.

My printer was just bought yesterday, a new one. It could turn on at the beginning, but while I started to setup the wireless connection, I got a problem installing the driver on my laptop so I turned off the printer. After this the printer never turned on properly. Everytime I press the power button, the printer turns on for a few seconds, the scaner lights up and toner moves a bit, then it shuts itself down.
I totally have no idea what happened and have no clue whether it is the board issue or setting issue. The toner was stuck but I have fixed it, not helping with the turn off issue tho.

So I did call Apple. That was pointless since they had no idea what was wrong. I made an appointment with a Genius at the Apple store nearest to me. The associate who checked me in said his wife had the same problem (and discovered it while on an 8 hour flight, which stinks).
The genius who helped me was great. He had no idea what the issue was and hadn't heard of the issue before, so he took my phone into the back room and ran some diagnostics.
He found that there was nothing wrong with the hardware at all, but he noticed an error with my firmware.
He restored my phone (while my phone was plugged into itunes he held down the home and wake/sleep buttons. Then when the apple logo appeared he let go of the sleep/wake button but kept the home button pressed). This erased everything. I wasn't worried about that since all my contacts, apps, and music were backed up on my computer.
I guess he reinstalled the latest firmware and os update. He put a couple of albums worth of music on there too for me to test it. Problem solved.
It took an hour or two for me to get everything back onto my phone and in its proper place.
That was a pain, but worth it since I can now listen to music freely with no interruption.
The only thing I'm really ****** about is that my game data is all erased. Apparently when you back up your apps in itunes, it doesn't back up your progress/saves/scores in your games. I have about 30 games on my phone so this really, really *****. I guess I will just have to replay all the levels in Angry Birds, Peggle, Cut the Rope, etc. Lost a lot of progress in Infinity Blade which is pretty especially awful.
I just listened to about a half hour of music with no interruptions though, so I guess its a fair trade.
Good luck.

Sounds Keep Turning Off

I've discovered during the past couple of weeks that my interface sounds (clicks at login, locking sound when pressing the top button, etc.) have been consistently turning off. I can reactivate them by reselecting my ring tone, which forces that sound to play, and that reactivates my Text pings, login clicks, and the like, for a while, but then, sure enough, those interface sounds turn off again. Going into Settings/Sounds and turning off the keyboard clicks and then pressing the slider to reactivate the clicks doesn't work. Only reselecting the default phone ring is enough to reactivate the interface sounds that all show they're supposed to be on.
I've tried graceful shutdowns and hard resets, to no avail.
This is a first generation iPhone with OS 3.0 running and about 2.4GB free storage available.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Thanks for listening...

My iPhone's been out of its dock (the two port version that came with my Apple Bluetooth Earpiece) all afternoon, and the sound has been fine with all interfaces effects clicking away normally (after I reselected the default ring sound initially).
Because I had noted that others have reported sound issues after using their docks, typically after they inserted it into the dock and got the message that the device wasn't compatible (which it certainly had to be since it was from Apple), and since I had also observed this message popping up lately when I docked my iPhone, I got out my USB cable connector and tried it this time before putting it back into the dock. The USB cable plugged into my iPhone and the charging transformer as expected, the iPhone made the connecting sound, and proceeded to recharge my iPhone correctly. So, I unplugged it, and looked carefully at the dock's connector pins, which appeared to be OK. I gave the pins a hard blow, just in case some dust was causing the issue, and plugged my iPhone back into the dock.
The iPhone made its dock connecting sound, the battery appeared on screen, and the charging symbol appeared in the top right corner, again, all as expected. So, I unplugged it and re-plugged it in several times, trying to see if I was going to get the Incompatible Device message, and tested the interface sounds several times. All seems to be working correctly, at the moment.
So, my hypothesis at the moment is that the problem I've been having over the past couple of weeks is not software related, but potentially hardware related, specifically to the Apple dock connector itself. I can't be sure at this point, but I will be testing this if the Incompatible Device message appears again and I start having the sounds turning off issue again.
For now, I'm marking this question as answered.

After installing itunes windows services get turned off

I have a fresh install of Vista Ultimate Sp2 that has been running wiithout any probolems. I have waited a couple of weeks before installing iTunes. Now after 2 days the computer will not boot to windows. I boot too safe mode and I get a message that System Event Notification Service is turned off. In safe mode the services can't be accessed. So I do a system restore to the time I installed iTunes and all services are turned on and windows boots properly. I waited one week the downloaded iTunes again and reinstalled it. After a couple of days the computer will not boot except into safe mode. So I do a system restore and windows botts up ok. I then wait another week and I go thtough the same routine. I haven't installed anyother software yet, I want to get past this windows services getting turned off issue. I am not using selective startup so all services should start when the computer is turned on. Does anyone know what the issue may be?

A complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related software components is worth a try (7s can indicate trouble with other software components like Apple Application Support). See the following documents for instructions:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
... But if no joy there, let's check to see if there's a .NET issue underlying this:

Second s5 update has made wifi and data run simutaniously, being charged for data only way to turn off Data is to go to settings. I had same issue with my other phone. Recieved two replacement phones the SIM card did not work on replacements took phone ba

Wifi and Data running simultaneously. Data was being charged to my account even though I was on WIFI. No one can fix the issue. I have wasted 8 hours of my life and went and returned my phone and got a new one yet after the last update I now have WIFI and Data showing that they are running simultaneously. I have looked at numerous message boards and turned off Caller ID don't have Volte on my phone but do get an error with Visual Voice Mail. I don't want any of these services, you are not helping your customers Verizon or Samsung with forcing us to update. I tried not to update my NEW phone that I had to get from Costco because of this exact same stupid issue happen on my last one. But every time I said NO to update the next time I did anything on the phone the UPDATE would pop up again. I would say NO it would come back. I was doing a text and it came up and I hit update not wanting to and then my phone began updating on a low battery. I had to rush to put on charge and then my WIFI and Data came back on together with arrows on all going up and down. I HATE the lack of support I get from SAMSUNG and VERIZON... Verizon washes their hands and say these are not Updates even though these are the features we have on all our phones like Visual Voice Mail and Volte...

I did look at the Settings/Cellular to check the applications. This is one of the steps I did with the person from Verizon who was an "iPhone Specialist". And he didn't see anything unusual. And I can honestly tell you they have very minimal number of apps on their phones.
When I went to the Apple Store the first time with this problem, they had me update the phones iOS systems to see if this would correct the problem. They were each running older versions but different versions. One son had one update to do and the other had a couple of updates needed. So, the problem started before they were updated and they weren't even on the same update. And nothing changed after we did the updates.
I didn't reboot the router and modem, because I'm not having any other issues with my phone, my husband's phone, our iPad, xbox, PS3, or laptops. Would the wifi only affect their phones?

I cant find my pdf/ibooks on computer after backing up my iPad (they are on my iPad). Also, I'm having issues with my Ipad turning off about every 2 minutes so I want to restore it. Dont want to lose my files from my iPad.

Actually I have 2 problems: I cant find my pdf/ibooks on computer after backing up my iPad (they are on my iPad). I looked under Ipad, I Books, PDFs, and it doesn't show them on the computer. How do I manually transfer these files?
Also, I'm having issues with my Ipad turning off about every 2 minutes, and I want to restore it. I want to make sure all of the files are backed up before I restore. My trouble started when I was trying to update my IPad but it was taking too long (internet was scetchy) so I powered off...now Im having problems. I haven't tried to update again since this problem. Any suggestions? Should I restore? Should I update to 7.0.6? (currently 7.0.3).

Windows Firewall issue, Inbound rule opend all, still not the same as turning off

This is Windows Firewall issue on Windows 8.1 Pro.
Backup Exec server cannot expand a computer node in selection list. I drill down to Microsoft Windows Network/Domain/Computers, then when I tried to expand a Windows 8.1 Pro computer node, it hangs out.
I narrowed this problem to Windows firewall related issue on Windows 8.1 Pro computer.
When I turn off Windows Firewall on Domain profile, Backup Exec Selection expands the computer node of the Windows 8.1 Pro computer. So, I created an inbound rule opening all to BAckup Exec server as following, but it's still not the same as turning off
Windows firewall specifically on Windows 8.1 Pro computer;
Any Local IP address, Any Remote IP address, Any port, Any protocol, All Interface, All Programs and Services, All profiles(Domain, Private, Public)
And there are no rules blocking any which may override the above rule.
Ethernet on Windows 8.1 Pro computer shows profile is linked with Domain, but just to make it work, I selected all profiles.
Even though I opened all available in inbound rule, it's still not the same as turning off windows firewall. Why am I missing?

It looks as something related to RPC(UDP 135), but even when inbound rule is all open, why it matters? RPC seems working fine only when firewall is turned off on domain profile.
Protocol 17 is UDP

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

I have been having issues with not receiving texts and voicemails daily, for a few months now. If I turn the phone completely off, when I turn it back on the messages will flood in from hours before. I can't be continually turning off my phone in case someone left me a message. How do I resolve this issue?

Wifi: my Cell phone will remember 10 wifi connections. So delete any you don't use often and your home wifi and try to enter home wifi again.
if it still won't connect to home wifi, call your internet provider for help. You may need a newer router or different settings Or upgraded service. Your phone seeks the best connection and will refuse lesser connections.
last resort. Backup the phone. Do a full reset, then restore as new with the backup.
if still not fixed, go back to apple and insist on repair or replacement.
HOWEVER. voicemail is not a wifi issue, it's a carrier function, which is why the SIM card is a suspect.

Hi Hi Steve Giusto,
If you are having issues with Xxx_state issue here_xxX, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close

Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -

If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
