Since I downloaded the newest update, my phone only rings or makes text sounds about 10% of the time. It can be sitting in front of me and a call or text comes in. No sound, just a msg on the screen. Anyone out there having that problem?

Since I downloaded the newest update, my phone only rings or makes text sounds about 10% of the time. It can be sitting in front of me and a call or text comes in. No sound, just a msg on the screen. Anyone out there having that problem? It's not a problem in the settings as I set the rings and tones I want. The rare one comes thru with sound. I never had any problems before update.

No, sounds like when you dropped it an cracked the screen it may have also damaged the logic board or the repair person damaged a cable.

What causes the screen to magnify when using wireless mouse in Safari?

Sometime when clicking the mouse in Safari the screen will magnify. Why?

Check your Magic Mouse preferences. There's a preference for zooming the screen in Safari similar to the double tap zoom for iOS devices. You can change that configuration.

What causes the screen to freeze? 10.7.4

update to 10.7.4 and now for no reason the screen just freeze's

Use backups with Carbon Copy Cloner in addition to TimeMachine.
You can find CCC on www.macupdate.com
Lion does not include support for Rosetta. That and plug-ins and extensions change.
You really should try the Safari support forum www.apple.com/support/safari to help you isolate why or maybe you just need to
1. delete all the history cache and other temp files is saves to disk ~/Library/Caches/ (MetaData, Safari, com.safari etc)
2. Create a new Safari profile folder ~/Library/Safari
Or create a new user account for your system also and try that.
Never upgrade one OS over an older one, install on a new hard drive. Then use Setup Assistant.
And you might want to just try installing Lion new on another hard drive and see how Lion only really runs.
If you had saved the Lion installer you could test it out on another hard drive.
You can always boot from the 10.6.x DVD or flash memory that you had and wipe out Lion and take an hour to install SL to a new drive and do all the updates and also use Setup Assistant from your old drive.

Iphone 6 screen is zoomed in so far I can't enter passcode

I woke up today with my Iphone 6 screen is zoomed in so far that the number 5 fills the whole screen. I've done the hard reset many times, but it still reboots zoomed in. I can't do a restore via itunes because it requires the pass code to be entered. I can't do the reset because it requires find my iphone to be turned off. So my phone is useless until I can fix this, can't get into my phone at all.

Don't. If you're not familiar with a feature, then you have to learn.

HT201335 What causes the TV screen to freeze but sound continue on TV when using Air Play from I Phone?

What causes TV screen to freeze but sound continue on TV when using Air Play from I Phone 4?

First try rebooting ATV and router. Beyond that, it's probably something within the network, typically interference.
To get a report of the network go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC). Look for signal strength and noise.
If on wifi try ethernet.

Software hiccup, glitch or maybe faulty battery. Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. See if this helps. If still problem that you think is serious enough to fix, all iPhone 4S have full Warranty. Make Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

You need to continue with the Recovery...
Once the Device is in Recovery Mode... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... After the successful Recovery... Restore from the most recent Backup...

What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring?

What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring? I can't get iPhone 4 video to work on my TV screen
I have just bought an MD098ZM/A (Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter). I am struggling to get it to show a picture on my TV. I know I'm doing something right because the audio is coming out of my TV speakers but no picture on the TV screen.
I have used the same HDMI channel (on the TV side) with the same cable and my thunderbolt port (MacBook Air) without any trouble - and on the same app (BBC iPlayer download then full-screen mode).
Now I note that the packaging for the MD098ZM/A says video-out on iPhone 4 but mirroring only on iPhone 4S. I only have an iPhone 4 (not the 4S). Now if the lack of iPhone 4 support for mirroring means that I can't play video material out to my TV, then in what sense is there any video-out capability at all?
There is only safety and warranty paperwork in the Apple adapter packaging - no help information. And I haven't found further guidance online either.
I do note somewhere online that it suggests that basic non-mirroring video-out (for this adapter) only works with some external TV sets. Any way of finding out which? I'm using a Sanyo CE32LD90-B LCD TV if it helps.
So far not doing very well.

Now found these but have had to give up on this adapter!

What causes areas to be grayed out when viewing in Acrobat 9?

What causes text to be grayed out when viewing in Acrobat 9?
Douments which were fine in Acrobat 9 suddenly have areas blacked or grayed out. The same thing happens if opened in Acrobet Reader. Is there a setting that causes this.

It could be that the text is an image.
Try going to Edit>Preferences>Page display>Page content and information and check the box hat says "Display large images".

Problem outputting to the screen using FileDescriptor.out

I have the following program that reads prime numbers from a binary file. The issue is that the numbers are not printing to the screen using
FormatWriter out = new FormatWriter(
       new BufferedWriter(
       new FileWriter(FileDescriptor.out)));The numbers are being read from the file as if I unblock the line
// System.out.println(primes[j]); the numbers are printed to the screen.

Thanks for any help.

Indeed. It isn't obvious to me what the result of new FileWriter(FileDescriptor.out) would result in, but your test appears to show that it doesn't result in something which can be used to output to the console.

What are the screens made of on iPod nanos?

Hi I am looking to buy an iPod nano, most interested in 6th gen but everything from 4th onward looks decent to me... My current music player is last years model of the 8gb Sony Walkman. The very first time I put it in my pocket and went for a walk, the coins in my pocket made quite the mess out of my screen. The sound quality on the unit is amazing though... If I am going to invest in a new player, it has to have a scratch resistant screen like gorilla glass. What are the screens made of on iPod nanos and how well do they perform against being in a pocket with things such as coins, keys and a lighter?
Thanks in advance for any helpful responses

It is Gorilla glass and is scratch resistant but not impervious. I've carried mine in my pocket with coins, keys, etc.
