What would cause the original I Pad shut itself off while playing games or online? it is not a battery issue or time issue. When I turn it back on it goes to were I was  when I was online ,but have to start games over.

The original iPad has a slow processor and only 256 MB of memory so it often runs into low-memory failures.
Double click the home button and dismiss all of the recents - I do that weekly.
Then reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider - I also do that weekly.
Both seem to help to reduce the low-memory faults that occur.

    Basic troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore.  If these are tried and you still have problems then you have a hardware failure and will need to have your phone replaced by Apple.

    Where did you come up with the $700 figure?
    Photography plan - $9.99/month or $119/year - Creative Cloud Photography plan : Adobe Creative Cloud
    Single App - $19.99/month
    Complete plan - $49.99/month or $599/yr - Creative Cloud free trial & plans : Adobe Creative Cloud
    Ah - If you wish to cancel early yeah $74.99 which would total for the year at $899.88. But that final total would be if you canceled in the 12th month but if you plan on keeping it that long might as well go for the annual contract. Then cancel at the end of the term limit if you need to.
    If you are not sure what to get, Either Elements as was suggested by Peru Bob or the photography plan.

  • I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on, all my apps were deleted. I tried to reinstall my apps, but it wouldn't let me. My storage still remained the same even though, all my apps were deleted. How can I get my apps back?

    Hold the home and power button down until your phone restarts. If that doesn't work, backup and restore using iTunes.

  • What would cause the printer to only print text in microsoft word but no images

    i have a  hp deskjet D1320 printer, windows xp operating system, and i have always printed greeting cards from microsoft word by inserting an image and then printing it with the printer set to duplex(2sided)printing option, so after you print the image you flip the card around and then print the text on the inside of the card. now the printer does not print any images when i insert the image and then click print it just runs 1 piece of paper through the printer and stops but it will still print text just fine, does anyone know what would cause this type of an issue?

  • What would cause the flash not to fire?

    What would cause 580ex not to fire?

    Can you be more specific?
    When you power it on, you should get a red Pilot light when it's ready to fire.  If you press the light (it's a button) it should test-fire the flash.  That will confirm the flash actually works.
    You can tell the camera to disable the flash... this is useful when you just want to use the flash's focus-assist beam to help the camera lock focus, but do not actually want the flash to fire.  Check your camera menu... probably under "External Speedlite Control" -> "Flash Firing" and check that it is set to "Enable".

  • DPS: pinch and zoom function not working on all pages within folio (v30 tools using the pdf setting). What would cause some pages to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer?

    What would cause some pages in the same folio to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer that's not allowing the pinch and zoom to work?
    I do have a "go to state" button that enlarges graphic to full page on the page. Could this be cancelling the pinch and zoom functionality? Would a box with text wrap ON affect the ability to pich and zoom? What else may be causing this?

  • Solution to the Droid Incredible frequently shutting itself off?

    As with many other posters I was perfectly content with my droid incredible until recently. Now it just shuts itself off whenever it feels like it (while I'm on the phone or when its just sitting on my desk, etc). This past week my once or twice a day shut off has picked up to 5-6 times a day. I can't tell you how many times I've tried factory resets or changing out my battery or any other solution you can imagine to no avail. I'm desperately seeking any advice on fixes to this solution.
    Thanks in advance!

    I'd like to give some advise if you have taken the time to do a master reset already. There are really only 2 other things I can think of aside from replacing the device.  One thing I would like to make clear before trying the troubleshooting steps below is ensure that your issue is not caused by an application. I don't know how many customers have done a master reset and then immediately have redownloaded all of their apps.  The issues immediately came back which isn't surprising if the issue is caused by an app.
    1) Remove the SD card from you device. The phone may be trying to access files that have been corrupted and is glitching out because of this. If you find there is a problem with your SD card, I suggest backing up any pertinent info on a computer and formatting the SD card. Do the same for phone storage memory too.
    2) Ensure your software is up to date. The current software information can be found here: Incredible Software Update.
    If none of the above has resolved your problem, I recommend contacting the Warranty Center at 866-406-5154 or DM me with your name and number. I'll call you as soon as possible.

  • Is the MIFI6620L supposed to shut itself off if you don't have a device using it and you are not currently charging it?  I am having to push the on button to restart it everytime I want to use my computer or tablet.  I don't want to leave it plugged in al

    I have had the MIFI6620L for less than a week.  It keeps shutting itself off, and I couldn't find any mention of this in the user manual.  Perhaps it is a battery saving feature, and not a problem with the unit?  This is happening after the battery is charged and I have the unit disconnected from the outlet.  Thanks.

    Yes that is correct.  Jetpacks will power themselves down after a default amount of time to preserve battery life.  This feature should only be happening when there is no activity on the Jetpack.  If you have devices connected it should remain online.
    As a Jetpack owner it is a good idea to build a habit of powering on and off your device on a regular basis.  This will help you keep your Jetpacks connection to the towers fresh and less prone to disconnections.  The best way to use a Jetpack is to power up, consume data and then power down until next time.

  • I have a macbook pro 10.6.8 system.  My hard drive was replaced under warranty.  Since then, my computer runs hot. The original hard drive never ran hot.  What would cause the new hard drive to run hot?

    I have a 2011 MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8, 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7,  4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3.  This is my first computer so don't know anything about trouble shooting.  A week before the warranty expired, I took my computer to Apple to be checked.  I was told that my hard drive was bad and they replaced the hard drive.  Since then, my computer runs hot most of the time and the fan is constantly coming on, which is good  My computer rarely ran hot with the original hard drive.  What would be causing this? 

    racergirl,
    have you tried resetting your MacBook Pro’s System Management Controller, to see if that makes a difference with the heat?

  • What would cause the speaker in my iPad (III) to stop working suddenly?

    I was listening to a podcast yesterday when the sound got staticky and the speaker  stopped working. I tried plugging in external speakers and those do work, but that is the headphone jack . If I try to play a game with sound, it comes on very low - no matter how high up I have the sound- and then fades after about 30 seconds. The iPad not quite four months old and is in an OtterBox case, and has been since day one. Any ideas on what could have happened and if this may be something covered by the warranty? Thanks!

    Have you dropped the iPad?
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • What would cause the computer to have a continuous knocking sound below the key board on the right hand side?

    I have had my MacBook Pro since the middle of 2009 and am concerned that this continuous knocking sound that is inside and on the right side of my computer is indicative that my computer is starting to die on me. Has anyone experienced this same issue? And if you have what was the determined cause.
    Thanks you

    Hello Barney, its microsoft office 2008 , not sure how to revert to original shipping thanks Ray
    There should be disks that came with the Mac. Gray in color, likely two of them. One is the installer.
    As I mentioned, I'm not sure if just booting into the installer and erasing the drive with Disk Utility is simple with the recovery hd. However, there are other posts around here I've seen discuss reverting to Snow Leopard, so I'm sure you can find something that describes it. 
    If you've lost the disks, you should call AppleCare and order replacements for the new owner. They'll need the serial number which you can find from About This Mac (click on the version number twice).
    As for Microsoft 2008, I would suggest that the new owner install that before installing Mountain Lion.

  • What would cause the screen to swith between backgrounds as if it is being controlled remotely? the system had created 7 new folders on it's own.

    System is currently switching between mutliple screens without me touching it. The system has created several new folders. The system is performing as if it is being remotely controlled.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...
