Why my brand new iphone 4 will not ring on a call but will play any other sounds?

When I play music, movies or ckeck the ringtones an other alerts, it sounds. But it will not sound when receiving calls. Please, help

Check the switch above the volume buttons, red is silent mode, if it isn't red you should hear it ring.

FaceTime will not ring on my Mac, but will on every other device

For some reason about a week ago, my Mac stopped ringing for FaceTime. FaceTime will ring on every other apple device in the house, but not my Mac. I've tried every setting change that seems logical, and nothing works. I see from the forums that lots of other people have this same problem. Can someone help? Thanks.

It isn't that I can't hear it. It just won't register that a FT call is coming in.
However, one thing I did do and NOW everything seems to be ok, is a) log off iMessage and FaceTime from all your OS X and iOS devices, and then b) re-log in to them. It resets something on the server end.
(A friend who had iMessage/Messages syncing issues was told to do this and it helped him.)
This seems to have solved my issue.

HT201401 My iphone would not ring with incoming calls, despite ring tone was set up?

My iphone would not ring with incoming call despite ring tone was set up using sound setting. In the beginning, it did ring. After a while it stops working. Any idea to make it work again?

Is the silent switch on the side of the iphone on?

Yeah, because if the switch isn't on, the phone is put on vibrate.

Call *73 to insure your phone is not forwarded. Is it all calls or a specific number?

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page. I continually get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only will it not print docs, it will not print web pages using IE 11 or Google Chrome.
I've used Print and Scan Doctor, it always reports there are no issues and prints a test page even though I can't print anything else.
Each time I want to print, I must reboot the computer. After reboot I have one chance to print.   This problem started February 15, 2015.
My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled the HP software, rebooted, then reinstalled the software:
OJ8500_A910_1315-1.exe
HP Print and Scan Doctor - HPPSdr.exe
HPSupportSolutionsFramework-11.51.0049.msi
All versions were last downloaded on April 4, 2015.
I have a home wireless network (Ubee DDW366 router). All other devices in the house will print to the 8500A printer without issues: 2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones, and 1FireHD.
The desk top is installed with a Netgear Network card I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC Tech to confirm that the card is working.   The card and Windows 8.1 were installed on January 3, 2015.
I have run virus scans and malware scans. Each time they show there are no issues with my desktop. What kind of desktop? Specifically made to my specs from store parts. . . no brand name computer. ASUS Motherboard P6X580 Premium. Now I will probably get hacked!
I am at my wits end. And it is frustrating when I need to make a print of something and the system locks up. I often resort to screen printing to a word document to save in order to reboot. . . .but then I lose all sorts of capabilites when I salvage what I needed. Also this is a time consumer.
This printer has served us well for two years and I have expensive cartridges waiting; another two rounds of refills.
Help?
Addendum: I can scan using HP Printer Assistance. I open the HP Printer assistant, it "retrieves" info from the printer, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer responds.   I have no trouble with scanning.

Hello lyngos,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:

If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
Best of luck,

My iphone 4s will not ring for incoming calls...I've checked Do not Disturb, changed my ringtone to default and did a soft reset. It will vibrate but not ring. What can I do?

My iphone will not ring when calls come in. I have it set to ring and vibrate. The Do not disturb is turned off and I have reset it but still it will not ring. What can I do?

Check and see that the silent mode switch on the upper left side is toward the front of the iPhone and there is no orange or red showing.

My iPhone will not ring when a call comes in. It goes straight to voicemail.

What can I do when my iPhone does not ring, and just goes to voicemail?

Call your wireless carrier. I had the same issue once. the problem was on their end.

HT4623 I updated my phone to iOS6 and now it will not ring for incoming calls. It blocks my landline number. I've tried resetting, updating, etc. I've gone to the Verizon store. They were puzzled too. Any ideas of what I should try next?

I accepted the push to update my iphone to iOS6....now it will not ring. It blocks calls from my landline. Help! I've tried resetting, etc.

It has been caused in an OTA glitch. You need to hook it up to your computer, restore and update off of iTunes. Good Luck.

Iphone 3GS not ringing/vibrating when called.

Hello,
When I call my Iphone 3GS with another phone (while in sleep mode) , the Iphone does not ring nor vibrates.
However, when I push the home button while the call is comming in, the Iphone awakens and starts ringing and vibrating.
If the home button is not pressed the Iphone remains completely silent.
When I restart the Iphone it works perfectly for a few times and then shows the same problematic behaviour again.
I've updated the OS to the latest version, restored the Iphone a few times, nothing helps.
I found someone with the same problem saying that it is a battery related problem, so I've changed the battery and it didn't solve the problem.
The problem also persists after changing to a different opperator. (I didn't switch operators to solve this problem, it had other reasons, but does excludes it as a possible solution)
To me it seems like a software problem. Anyone any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks
Jonathan
