Why? Why does it do this? Why? (problem with the lock thing)

I always lock my ipod mini and then put it in my bag while I'm using it, but as soon as it touches something in my bag it pauses. Should it pause with the lock on? It's really annoying as I have to unlock it to unpause it, and then it just pauses itself again. Grrrr.

If you are using an third-party headphone set, or your headphone minijack connection is slightly loose, then every time it moves, the iPod senses that and pauses the music.
It is a 'feature' to stop the music playback should you remove the headphones from the iPod. It can be a bit sensitive given the 'wrong' conditions.
No way to turn off this feature, so you'll need to experiment with keeping the jack from being jostled.

  • HT4628 Intermittent reception when streaming music via Airport Extreme and Airport Express to powered speakers. Is this a problem with the Extreme?

    i get intermittent reception when I stream music from I Tunes via Airport Extreme and Airport Express to powered speakers. I Tunes continues to play uninterupted on the Mac.  The problem does not lie with the Express as it occurs on both of my 2 Express at the same time. is this a problem with the Extreme?

    Well, repying to my own post... Might have found the solution: I tried to do the same with a Macbook Pro 2010 using the very same setup. And it worked perfectly! No freeze, no nothing.
    One explanation I see:
    my iMac is dating back to May 2007, a Core 2 Duo 2,16Ghz with 2 Go of RAM.
    So the computer's characteristics (or the Wifi component or the combination of all of this) might be not robust enough to allow streaming to those 2 devices...
    Anyone's got anything to add?

  • I am not getting any sound input on my microphone. There is no microphone input on my new macbook pro, so I am using my old one. Is this a problem with the new operating system? Did they simply remove any microphone software?

    When trying to install a wireless printer, the WEP password says its incorrect. Is this a problem with the airport, my Internet provider or HP? I know the password is correct.

    Your AirPort Extreme supports WPA.
    WEP is outdated and considered fairly useless, so use WPA.
    Be sure you are using AirPort Utility  5.6. If you are not running Lion then use AirPort Utility 5.5.3.
    AirPort Utility 6.0 cannot administer 802.11b/g base stations.

  • HT2341 When I first attempt to power on my MacBook Pro, the LED blinks but the MBP doesnt turn on. However when I try a second time the LED blinks but my Mac turns on. Is this a problem with the hardware and can it be fixed?

    When I first attempt to power on my MacBook Pro, the LED blinks but the MBP doesnt turn on. However when I try a second time the LED blinks but my Mac turns on. Is this a problem with the hardware and can it be fixed?
    Also, I apparently have to replace my battery. Could the problem have any relevance to a dead battery?

    Have you held the power button down for 10+ seconds?  That should turn it off.
    Ciao.

  • Is this a problem with the Sudden Motion Sensor or the HDD?

    I have a MacBook that I purchased in Septemberof this year, and for a while I have been having a problem with the HDD. I understand that there is a Sudden Motion Sensor that parks the hard disk when the computer is moved suddenly, but every hour or so I can hear the HDD make a single loud click for seemingly no reason at all. The computer can be sitting on my desk with no applications running and this will still happen. This is not really much of a problem other than the annoying noise, but if I am playing music or a video from the HDD it will skip when it does this. I have disabled the SMS for now to see if it will make a difference, I am very careful with my devices so I do not fear that I will cause any HDD damage without the SMS, but I am not sure if it is a problem with the HDD or the SMS. Could anyone shed some light on this for me?

    Well turns out disabling the SMS did nothing so I'm going to just take it in and hope it can be fixed.

  • Since Firefox 32.0 was downloaded on 3/9/14 I am experiencing brief hanging when clicking onto websites or links. Is this a problem with the new version of Fire

    If I click onto any link or webpage I am quite often getting a briefing 'hanging' before Mozilla responds. I also get a message at the top of my screen stating that Firefox is not responding and the loading symbol justs spins in circles until it eventually frees up and opens the page. Prior to Firefox 32.0 being downloaded on 3/9/14 I had no problems with this 'hanging' at all. I can only assume it is a Firefox issue as I do not have the same issues if I use Internet Explorer or any other programs installed on my computer.

    You can check for problems with the history that is stored in the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • HT202157 Does anyone else have a problem with the latest Apple TV update?  My Apple TV no longer can load movies from my iTunes library, including ones I've already watched or were watching.  Can I roll back this update, and if so, how?

    After updating my Apple TV, it will no longer load movies from my iTunes library.  Music works, but no movies.  I've turned this puppy every which way but loose, but no joy.  Is there a way to roll back an update?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Is this a problem with the phone or verizon?

    When trying to check for system update my GS3 says
    "To check for system updates,go to Settings> About device when service is available"   ( I of course have a good connection)
    Also under  -Status last checked on" it says October 01 2012
    Does this mean my phone hasnt updated at all since that time?
    It has my Android version as 4.0.4
    I have read on this message board that getting a new sim card has been a fix for others but that several have had to get the phone replaced.  I purchased this phone in September of last year shouldnt it have updated by now?
    Edit:  I have tried removing the sim card and battery then rebooting several times

    Although you said u checked time zone setting, just double check it to make sure.
    Settings->privacy->location services->system services-> setting time zone->ON
    Like you said, if its not the problem then try a hard reset by pressing and holding both the home button and sleep/wake button together untilt the apple logo appears.

  • All of my emails have vanished from inboxes on ipad and servers - is this a problem with the ipad operating system?, All of my emails have vanished from inboxes on ipad and servers - is this a problem with the ipad operating system?

    Last night I went to check my emails on my ipad and noticed that all of my inboxes (gmail, yahoo and exchange) were completely empty. I logged on to each individual site on my computer and the inboxes were empty there as well, with no trace of the lost messages in any trash folders or other folders. Obviously this is completely unacceptable as I have lost hundreds of important emails. Upon searching online I found that other people have experienced the same exact thing  but apple has provided no explanation. As the only device that I use to access these 3 email accounts is my ipad I feel like it must have come from there. The chance of all 3 servers malfunctioning and clearing my inboxes at exactly the same moment last night is too ridiculous to contemplate, despite being suggested by the customer service advisor that I just spoke to. And I have no other evidence that my accounts have been compromised, and they have separate usernames and passwords anyway. Has this happened to anyone else? Or can anyone provide any sort of explanation? Thank you

    You're welcome. As to checking speed go to http://speedtest.net/ and it will choose the closest server for you. BTW, whatever you do, don't click on the robot icon that says "Start Scan" or MacKeeper below that. Only use the speed test in the middle that has the button BEGIN TEST on it. It will run a download speed test first and then an upload speed test. The download test will give a much faster response.

    The program 'works' fine, but whenever I close the window, thus exiting the loop, a wild segfault appears!
    gdb says that:
    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
    0x00007ffff557d164 in ?? () from /lib/libnvidia-glcore.so.302.17
    Here is the complete code with a makefile: compile and test if you have sfml and glew installed (repo versions, nothing exotic !).
    https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B0oubb … 0owXzhRTEU

    You need to break the "while(win.isOpen())" loop after you win.close().  The segfault is occuring because you glDrawElements() one last time after you've already closed the window (and presumably destroyed the openGL context).
    I'd suggest using gdb to attack bugs like this.  It can be extremely helpful:
    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

  • I can make calls and send text messages on my new iPhone 5, but incoming calls and texts still go to my old (non-Apple) phone. Is this a problem with the phone set up, or is it a problem with my old carrier or my new carrier?

    I can make calls and send texts on my new iPhone 5,  but all incoming calls and texts are received by my old (non-Apple) phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Problems with the iOS 5.1 version, HELP!

    I just upgraded to the latest version - iOS 5.1 on my iPhone 4, but now the screen is freezing all the time, and the phone shuts down. Is this a problem with the new 5.1 version? What can I do to fix it?

    Try to restore it... I'm hating this iOS 5.1, everything was working much better before it was released. I shouldn't have upgraded...
