Why Bluetooth keeps turning on?

I turned off it for ~5 times in the settings, I don't need it, but it keeps turning back on by itself.

I have the same problem. It's new to ios 7 I think. I just turned bluetooth off, restarted the phone and guess what, it's back on again. Bumping for any suggestions!!

hi Apfelwurm,
why do you say it's not normal.
it always switches itself on after i update. it just did again, this time for 7.1.2.. i t also will switch on after a restore.
i never use bluetooth and make sure it's not on for any other reason.
it's been noticed by others too.

Bluetooth keeps turning on

Subject line says it all. Bluetooth keeps turning on - I go to settings and turn it off. Look at phone a few mins layer and it's back on again. How to tuen it off - permanently.

If you hold down the power button and then use the slide on the screen, the phone will power off. Then pressing the button will power the phone on again. If you hold down both the power and the home buttons together and keep holding them until the Apple logo appears, then releasing both buttons and ignoring the slide to power off screen, that is a reset. If that doesn't help, the next step is to do a reset, first from a backup, next as a new phone, or not from a backup.
I'm assuming that you had turned bluetooth off before you did this and when you looked again it was on? See what happens with the reset and see if that corrects it. If not, the next step is to make an appointment at the Apple Genius Bar and have them examine the phone. You can make an appointment online at http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar

Odd problem after Kernel update - Bluetooth keeps turning on

I recently upgraded from the 2.6.30 kernel to version 2.6.31. With this upgrade I have noticed something odd - there's a light indicating that the Bluetooth controller is on. This light now turns on when I boot Arch. I have never installed any Bluetooth drivers or software, and I'd prefer if bluetooth disabled as I do not use it with Arch. Does anyone have any ideas?
Btw, my machine is a Thinkpad T61 with a "Broadcom Corp. Bluetooth Controller", according to lsusb.

I've a Thinkpad T60 with the same controller and problem. I've taken to working around this by disabling bluetooth in rc.local, though I'd be very grateful for a solution.

Thankyouuu
it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck

Why does my Mac Mail programme keep turning on the SSL option?

For a couple of years now my wife's Mac Mail programme has from time to time stopped getting most of the emails sent to it for a week or more. I've wasted many hours on the phone to our service provider without ever getting to the bottom of the problem. Now I believe I know what's been happening. It seems that her Mail preferences keep turning on the SSL option without any human involvement. Apparently emails sent to an SSL selected email address will only make it into her in-box if they come from an SSL selected mail programme. Yesterday, scratching my head as to why, once again, few emails were getting through, I once again looked at the preferences and noticed that the SSL option, which I had recently unchecked, was once again checked. I unchecked it. It immediately re-checked itself. I unchecked it. It immediately re-checked itself. And so on, for ten minutes when, suddenly, it remained unchecked.
Why is this happening? My wife never, and I mean never fiddles with settings on her computer and nobody else uses it. The checking of the SSL option is being done entirely at the behest of the machine itself. Can anybody tell me how this could be happening? And could anybody tell me how I can stop it from happening again?

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Step 1 should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary, and if everything is working as expected after step 1.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

If you've tried the basic troubleshooting steps (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new), and you've tried charging from a wall socket and these all fail, then you have a hardware problem.
If your unit is still in warranty, you will be eligible for a replacement with a refurbished unit free of charge. If you are out of your warranty period, you will be eligible for an out of warranty exchange which will cost the equivalent of 200 US dollars.

Every time I turn the computer off or put it in sleep mode... when I come back my wallpaper is gone. I have to keep going to my pics and getting it back. Does anyone know why this keeps happening??

Are you choosing it from one of these folders (in my screenshot) or you can also put that picture into the correct folder. The path is:
HD > Library > Desktop Pictures
If you add it to the folder manually, please restart your computer.
And yes, letting it sleep is a good idea, or else the startup disk will spin and the screen may suffer from image persistence if you leave a window or image parked in the same spot too long, so the screensave is a good idea.

Hi
Can you please write which notebook you have, which OS and is there SP2 already installed? As far as I know this option can not be disabled automatically. Do you use the notebook as administrator or as user with limited authorizations?

HT201401 Why does my iPhone 3G keep turning off by itself even when it's not dead?

My dad had his iPhone 3G and gave it to me when he had an upgrade. He never had the issue of it turning off by itself, but when he gave it to me, all of a sudden it decided to turn off by itself even when it was on like 80% still.
I took it in to the Apple Store near me and they said that I had too much "stuff" on it, mostly music.
So, I completely redid my phone. I reset it completely so that it looked like a completely new iPhone. And then downloaded only 12 apps and 195 songs. And, only about 50 pictures. (This is an 8 gig by the way)
Right now, there's less than 4 gigs on there so far meaning I still have more than half of my phone to fill. They guy at the store said it needs 2 gigs to run.
SO, it should have started working since theres way less stuff on there now, and more than enough space to run. Why does it keep turning off still though?
It's so annoying and inconvenient. If anyone could help it would be SO appreciated.
THANKS!!

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as a new device. Go through each step in succession until your issue is resolved.

Why does my iphone keep turning off when i put my pass code in

why does my iphone keep turning off when i put my pass code in

Hi ManiPictures,
If your iPhone shuts down unexpectedly during use, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
As your iPhone's operating system is already up to date with iOS 8.1.1, follow the last instruction -
If you still see this issue after updating, contact Apple Support.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Sony ps3 bluetooth headset keeps turning itself off

I recently purchased the official sony ps3 bluetooth headset, hoping it would also work with my mac. I've paired it, and successfully used it but the headset itself keeps turning off. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thanks~

Yes, it's fully charged. I plan on posting on the sony forums also, but I figured I'd try this approach also, given I have a feeling both companies are going to put the blame on the other. It does seem like sony's issue to me though, but you never know. I was just hoping I'd find someone who had the same experience (or a good experience where it does work) on these forums.
