  • Why cant i type or text on my iphone

    A while ago my iphone started rebooting on its own after I try and open an application or just on its on. I restored my iphone and that really didnt stop the rebooting from happening. That was late last year. This year the phone still reboots and as of yesterday if I need to text or simply type something whether it be in safari, dialing a phone number or typing in my passcode, the keys are off. Say i type the letter A well A might come up or 4 Ds might come up making it very difficult to look up anything or text. Even if i try and touch someone's name to dial it. it will either dial that person or my screen will jumble and it will dial whoever. Today I restored my phone and it is still doing this. I even experienced a blank white screen yesterday while trying to turn the phone off. Today my phones battery is running down while it is plugged into the wall charger. Im now on my third charge for the day with the computer charger. Anyone know what could be going on? I understand maybe its simply time for a new phone and I'm trying to hold out for the iphone 5 but may have to give in.

    If a restore as new didn't solve your problem, you likely have a hardware problem.  You might be better off buying a used iPhone off craigslist and waiting until the next iPhone is released, unless yours is still under warranty.

  • Different contact options when creating a new text message

    Hi all,
    On my Q10, I have the following "issue":
    When I want to type a new sms message to somebody listed in my contacts, I get not only the mobile phone number linked to that contact person but also e-mail addresses, fixed number...
    Is there any way I can change a setting for this so that only mobile numbers are displayed while creating a new text message (SMS)? Fixed phone number and mail addresses are just not relevant.
    On the other hand, when I want to create a new e-mail, I only see the mail addresses of my contact I am sending to.
    In my blackberry HUB I have following account (most probably the reason why I see other contact details while creating new text messages):
    Mail
    Facebook
    LinkedIn
    Please advise.
    Many thanks in advance!
    Kind regards,

  • Undesired bullet pointed text automatically upon creating a new text box

    Hi there! Due to the snow I'm working from home today but I have a little problem back in work that would be nice to get some help on before i go back hopefully tomorrow so i can continue at full speed!
    I'm using Mac OS X (can't remember which version from the top of my head but something quite new!), and InDesign CS3. Basically, every time i create a new text box, or place an excel file into the document (having to do a lot of that at the moment, creating a price guide), it is in bullet point form, and although it's quite easy to go and turn it back off, with me having to do this quite a lot it's getting somewhat frustrating. It does it every single time i create a new text box even if i have turned it off for the previous one
    I'm pretty sure this is going to be one of those "oh, you just need to..." problems with a really simple answer...i hope so anyway!
    Cheers dears!

    Thanks guys, i now seem to have a related problem at home. Here i am using CS2 but working on the same document as at work. I have made sure nothing is selected and set my character and paragraph styles to basic, and hey presto, when i create a text box, all is well. However, when i create a table, and i type in a cell, the bullets return! I have just discovered that turning them off in CS2 doesn't seem to be as simple as CS3 - so firstly - how do i do that?! And secondly - any ideas why it is happening but only in tables?!

  • How can i create a new album picture in iphone 4g ?

    hi to evryone
    how can i create a new album picture in iphone 4g ??
    thanks

    Hello,
    As I understand, you would like to know how to create photo albums on your iPhone? This is possible only by first moving your photos onto your Mac or PC.
    On the Mac use iPhoto to sort your pictures into albums then sync them back onto the phone via iTunes.
    On the PC sort your photos using folders or software like Adobe Photoshop Elements then sync them back onto the phone via iTunes.
    Hope this helps

  • I am unable to create a new event on my iPhone with IOS 7.0.4. I tap the plus sign, fill in the details, tape Done and ... nothing. Repeatedly. No problem on my iMac or iPad, just with the phone. Help.

    I am unable to create a new event on my iPhone with IOS 7.0.4. I tap the plus sign, fill in the details, tape Done and ... nothing. Repeatedly. No problem on my iMac or iPad, just with the phone. Help.

    Assuming you're creating this event to place in your calendar, and assuming this calendar is shared with your iMac and iPad using iCloud, might the calendar be restricted on your iPhone?

  • I created a new ID for my Iphone, because the old ID was an email address I no longer have. Also, the phone wouldn't recognize the password I have always used. Now the problem is when I try to update my apps, it automatically wants to use the old ID.

    I created a new ID for my Iphone, because the old ID was an email address I no longer have. Also, the phone wouldn't recognize the password I have always used. Now the problem is when I try to update my apps, it automatically wants to use the old ID. I've set the new ID for the phone, but it defaults to the old one when asking for a password to update apps.

    That's because all apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them, & can only be updated using that ID.
    To use your new ID with these apps, you'll have to delete them, then repurchase. Or, contact iTunes support, explain the situation, & ask that they add these apps to the download queue of your new ID.

  • Sorry but we cant create a repair while Find my iPhone is active

    Hello everyone. First of all please accept my appologies in case im posting to the wrong place. I bought an iphone 5 used, like half year ago on ebay and now it stopped turning on. I browsed for troubleshooting on expresslane and came up to the page where it offered to mail phone to apple for repair. I decided to do that but on a certain step i got a message "Sorry but we cant create a repair while Find my iPhone is active. Youll need to turn off Find My iPhone and retry this serial number." Well i knew i never turned this feature on personally, it appears that the previous owner did that and never erased this feature before selling and i never checked for that before using. I even never installed any apps of any kind. Decided to contact ebay seller to ask if they could turn the feature off. They appeared to be wholeasalers who resell used devices and never keep a record of what they buy and sell. Contacted Apple telephone support, they confirmed that the only way device could be serviced is to turn the feature off. A vicious circle. Dead end? Any thoughts?

    Yes and in my case i cant find who i bought it from. Now its a useless device for me
    I don't understand?  You don't know who you bought it from?  So, was this a purely private sale over the internet or something?
    Activation lock may lead to many such scams if people insist on buying used from unknown parties.  Someone steals someone else's phone, sells it online, and of course, it is blocked from being restored and activated by the original owners perfectly legitimate use of Activation Lock.

  • When I create a new contact on my iPhone 5, despite having all my devices connected to iCloud, the contact does not appear anywhere else. Please can you let me know how to solve this?

    When I create a new contact on my iPhone 5 it does not appear on any of my other devices (iPad, PC).

    '''''#This will fix the problem for most I think:'''''
    ''Firefox 4.0 has a new feature that automatically saves your tabs when you close Firefox.''
    Its seems that for many people, this feature was not enabled automatically, instead it is set on a different setting of 'show my homepage' or 'show a blank page'. But it is very easy to change, I just did it myself! Here is how to do it:
    At the top left of the screen is an orange 'Firefox' box, click on it. On the right of the dropdown menu you will see 'Options'. Click on it. Then you will see another 'Options', click on it. This will bring up the Options menu.
    The part we are interested in for this fix is where it says, 'When FireFox starts:'. There is a dropdown selection next to that sentance, click on the little down-arrow, and choose ' Show my windows and tabs from last time'. Then click on 'OK' at the bottom of the Options menu, this will close the menu.
    You should be sorted now, I was. I hope it works for you too. To test it out, have a few tabs open, and close firefox. Then try open it. Those same tabs should re-appear. Holding thumbs & fingers crossed :)

  • I've deleted some contacts, but when I create a new text it will still suggest the deleted contact. I want that to stop.

    I've deleted some contacts but when I create a new message it still suggests the deleted contact. How do I permanently delete that information?

    Restoring should not be the only solution !
    Apple should work on fixing this issue.
    The option is available when u email,
    A blue arrow appears and when u click it,
    It asks if u want to remove it permanently
    So i think the phone # after u send a sms/text
    Should be able to be deleted at will.
    Apple team get to work ! Lol
    Thnks
