Zen V switches itself from music to record

I can't get my Zen V to stop switching to record. It will not play music without switching over to record. I have shut it down and it sometimes refuses to shut down. I have tried resetting it and then doesn't help.

Hi Lynnbfreeman,

Zen Micro switches itself back on - any solutions plea

Morning All...
Another question from a newbie.........please don't shout if this is on the board somewhere as I couldn't find this problem........
My Zen Micro has been perfectly well behaved for most of its life but has recently begun to switch itself back on - even if I lock it in the off position. Customer support have been rather unhelpful so far with only standard replies about software probs. This fault happens with both the batteries so I'm guessing its a hardware fault. It doesn't get over used & hasn't been mistreated - it just started doing this of its own free will ! There's a ghost in my machine!
I've done a search on the board & can only find problems switching on - I have the complete opposite! It means the battery keeps draining & I don't realise until I pick it up to use it..... It takes about 4 attempts to shut down completely & even then, I don't trust it to stay off all day......
Has anyone else had this problem?
Does anyone know how to solve it or will it require a replacement maybe? It's still in warrenty but about 0 months old..........
Many thanks for any ideas.......

Hi
Many thanks for such a fast response!
To reply;
. I didn't know it had an alarm! So it seems highly unlikely (I hope!) that I have set it. Can you tell me how its done so that I can check that I haven't........
2. Where is the customer support based in the uk please? the email replies have been less than helpful as they include suggestions like this....& they have no other contact info than the email.
Plug out the headphone then switch off your player.After which plug in the headphone again.Does the player switch itself on?Then switch off your player with the headphone connected,After which plug out the headphone.Does your player switch itself on?
I'm not the most technically minded of people but I'd already advised them that this fault occurs no matter which battery is installed which indicates to me that its hardware at fault & so how can taking the headphones out solve that? (It doesn't by the way!) 3. Perhaps I wasn't clear about the problem - it doesn't switch back on at a set time - it does this the moment I've switched it off & keeps doing it until it gives in about 4 or 5 attempts later then it will stay off....or else I just take the battery out which is a drastic option but the best I could think of stuck on a train!
I love my little micro & have persuaded others to buy them as well but if its going to throw a wobbly like this then I can't recommend it anymore........ : (
Has anyone else seen this problem.... It just seems so weird!
I would refer to customer support if they would give me a UK phone number & address.......so I could talk to a human being.........
Any info on this please?
thanks once again!

What software do I need to get music from a vinyl record into ITunes

What software do I need to get music from a vinyl record into ITunes

When I used Audacity to digitize some of my LPs I would record the whole album, then trim the lead in, select and export the first track, delete that, then export the next track, and so on. You can zoom in and out to locate the track breaks. There is a snap to zero point option which should prevent clicks on track transitions. If you want to go deeper you can add fade in and out so you don't snap into the sound of the groove. (I was using a pretty ropey turntable). There are other tools that chop up audio but you should be able to do it all in Audacity reasonably quickly once you get your eye in. I'm sure there are tools that can chop audio at pre-specified points, or even calculate where those points should be, but they are unlikely to be free and probably still need a degree of supervision.

Adobe Media Server failing to record video if switched from play to record midstream

The Adobe Media Server is failing to record video if switched from play to record midstream. It is an intermittent issue that happens randomly one out of every 30 attempts.
Flash Runtime: Flash Player ActiveX 11.7.700.169 or Flash Player ActiveX 11.4.402.287
Media Server: AMS5.0.1, also FMS4.5.5
(The problem happens on both FMS4.5.5 and AMS5.0.1)
The ActionScript is as follows:
netstreamRoger.publish("719_Client","play");
Then 1 second later:
netstreamRoger.publish("719_Client","record");
netstreamRoger is streaming out the video and audio data correctly, because there is another computer playing the stream 719_Client live. So the media server is forwarding the stream correctly when live. The bug is when you attempt to playback 719_Client.flv the file does not contain any video data. The file size is not zero, and the file is not corrupted, but the file size is smaller than it would be if it had saved the video in it.
How do I submit this bug to the Media Server team, and how can I workaround this issue?
Below is the log from the Media Server 5.0.1

Zen Flashdisk- will not play music - "not licenced&qu

I have an SDHC card for my Zen but if I copy music to it it will not play as it states that the file has no licence. This is music I have ripped from Cds I own and which will play without problem from the Zen itself. What?is the point of buying a card if you cannot store music files on it's
Frustrated and stressed!

What app did you use to rip the CDs? If it was windows media player check the setting to be sure that the protect files is UNCECKED.

HP Officejet Pro X476dw MFP switches itself on

My Officejet Pro X476dw MFP just switched itself on. It has been off for a few days; not sleeping, off. I waited for it to do something, but it did nothing. So I started the HP Utility to check whether the settings that govern sleeping and turning off and on had been changed. They hadn't. A few minutes later the printer seemed to be preparing to print something. It displayed a message, "Preparing n ...", where n counteed down to zero, and then the paper door opened but nothing came out.
Is this expected behavior? The printer's firmware is up-to-date. It is running in a Mac environment, connected wirelessly to an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station with a fixed IP address. Two MacBook Pro's running OS X 10.9.5 and an iPad 3 and an iPhone 4S running iOS 8.3 are also connected wireless to the AEBS.
Thanks,
Richard

I Work for HP

Ive had my iphone 4s since 10th april and on three seperate occassions its switched itself off completely (whilst having battery) it then wont work for around 2 days, this is very annoying and I dont know what to do as its been out for around 12hours now

I don't know why my phone keeps switching itself off, I've never dropped it, had water damage nor any other damage to it. Ive had it for around 5 months or so now and it just likes to switch itself off for around 30-40 hours then work again as though nothing happened. Although this is great as it will eventually work its very frustrating not knowing if it will switch on again.. at the minute my phone hasnt worked for about 10-12 hours. I went in to the apple shop and they said they couldnt see me for over a week as they were fully booked, I understand that theyre busy but surely they can't expect me to go without a phone/alarm/email for that time when I am paying for it. Does anyone have any help/advice they can offer? Thanks

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Swipe up on the app preview card
- Press the home button when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

I like to watch tvcatchup or sky go or I player on my iPad while falling asleep, the problem is that the iPad then stays on all night. I would like to find an app that allows me to set a timer for the iPad to switch itself off automatically.

Does such an app exist? Can anyone help me? Thanks

You can try the Sleep Timer.

My iphone4 switches itself off and wont switch back on until its plugged into the mains

Hi there, can someone help me please!?
My iphone4 white had updated ios 4.3.3 and it randomly switches itself off, has anyone else had the same problem?
It just goes to black screen and I cant manually switch it back on, only when I connect it to the mains does it come back on.
What's also really strange is that once its reset from the mains it resets the date to 01/01/1970 and the time to 01:05?
Hopefully someone out there can help!? Mark

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
Good luck and let us know!

Hi Spenny,
Do you have any Apps that are not working properly or Apps that appear open from the Dock and shows the menu bar but no App window?
Have you looked here (System Profiler): Go to Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info > Contents > Hardware > Diagnostics... you can see what kind of Power up info is contained...
If it were me, I would go ahead and try resetting the SMC and pay careful attention to the instructions. If this does not help, I believe your machine is not actually turning off. So, if were me, I would force a shut down by holding the POWER BUTTON till machine turns off, this may take a few seconds but it will shut down and then go through resetting the SMC again....
Let us know, good luck, Rick

Autorotate stops when switching view from popover

Hi guys. This is my first post here (on my first iOS app) so please be gentle
I have my iPad app set to Autorotate between both right and left home button landscape modes.
Everything seams to be working fine when i build and run. Auto rotation works and only admit landscape modes.
In my view controller i have a button linked to a popover with 4 other buttons to swich to 4 different views.
When i switch to any of those other views autorotation stops working.
All those views have the same code to accept autorotation:
- (BOOL) shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: (UIInterfaceOrientation) interfaceOrientation {
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight || interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft);
The popover also has that code and is displaying the buttons in the correct way when I rotate the screen. I assume that the popover is autoratating fine, but the rest of the view stays upside down.
I'm switching views from the popover with the following code:
- (IBAction)GotoView02{
View02ViewController *View02 = [[View02ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[self presentModalViewController:View02 animated:NO];
Any ideas why autorotation stops working?

Same problem here, happening both in the simulator and on the device itself.
Have you found a solution yet?

My iPad switches itself off when I'm on the Internet help

When I'm using my iPad on the net it switches itself off and I'm having to turn it back on again and out in my password I only want to use it properly

Hi Lisah,
It sounds like you may have some corrupted files in the operating system -- when built-in apps and features like Camera and Siri malfunction, corrupted files are often the culprit. There are a few things you can do to fix this -- first thing I'd recommend would be to back up your device to make sure you have all of your current data and settings saved. Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
After backing up your data, try resetting all settings in Settings > General > Reset. Try the camera and charger again to see if you still see the same strange behavior. If so, there's likely a corrupted file in the iOS installation. It's pretty easy to reinstall the operating system files to fix this -- you will need a computer with internet access. Follow the steps in Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support to completely reinstall the iOS files and get a fresh, clean installation.
After using iTunes to restore the phone, go through the setup assistant on the phone and choose the option to Set up as a new iPhone. Set it up as new and test the camera again -- if it works this time, that's a good sign! After making sure it works properly, you can restore from the backup that created before doing all of the resets and restores. This will bring your content and settings back to the phone.
Good luck!

Importing song ratings from Music Match.

I am new to iTunes.
I am trying to switch from Music Match to iTunes in preparation for buying my 1st iPod (Nano). It seems that my song ratings from MMJB do not transfer into iTunes. Should these ratings transfer and I am just doing something wrong?
If not, any suggestions on how to best accomplish this task? I am thinking grouping songs by rating in MMJB, either in playlists or by moving each rating to a different folder on disk; then importing into iTunes songs of each rating separately. Hopefully in iTunes there is a way to rate a group of songs all together, rather than having to mark each one individually.

The playlist idea is probably the best one. Export your playlists (5 of them, one for each rating), import them, select all the playlist contents in iTunes, right click the selection, set the rating to whatever.

6500 slide keeps switching itself off

Just got my shiny new 6500 slide which keeps switching itself off. The only way of switching it back on when this happens it to take the battery out, put it back in and then press the power button. It happens about once or twice a day and it seems to be when the phone is charging.
Anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way of resetting the phone to prevent this happening?
I'd really like to fix it without the hassle of going back to the shop and trying to demonstrate a very unpredictable fault.

I would definately take your phone back and get it replaced. I had problems with my 6500 slide, every time i turned it on & off i would have to resest the time & date. I purchased my phone from an internet retailer and they exchanged it for a new one, so far i have had no problems...
