<title><![CDATA[MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display Mid 2015: iOS devices connecting and disconnecting rapidly.]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I've been having this issue for a while with my iPad Air 2: When I plug it into my MacBook, it will act as though I am plugging it in and unplugging it rapidly, and will not stay connected long enough for me to sync or backup with iTunes.</p>

<p>My iPhone has connected perfectly until today, when it started doing the same thing as the iPad. All other USB devices work fine, and my iPad and iPhone both connect with the windows computers at work just fine. I've tested with both USB ports on my MacBook, and with several known working cords, both Apple branded and not.</p>

<p>I've done a lot of searching, and haven't found any definitive answers or solutions, but today I thought I would try something.</p>

<p>I use Windows 10 in VMWare on my laptop for work (and yes I made sure it wasn't running before trying to sync to make sure that wasn't causing the connectivity issues). But today I opened Windows on my MacBook, and when I plugged in my iPad I told it to open in Windows, and voila it connected to iTunes in windows fine and stayed connected.</p>

<p>This leads me to believe it is some sort of software issue on the MacBook side of things. I even tried closing itunes and just plugging my phone in to charge, and it again acted as though I was continuously plugging it in and unplugging it, but stayed connected in Windows.</p>

<p>Is there something I can do to correct this? I thought it might be an iTunes issue, but since it wouldn't even keep my phone connected enough to charge without iTunes open, I'm assuming it's an OSX issue.</p>

<p>Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Has anyone figured out exactly what is causing the problem with Xbox Ones that power on, and immediately power off. The power brick is lit orange which instantaneously turns white once the Xbox is turned on directly from the console, but immediately powers off.</p>

<p>This is a very common problem that Microsoft will not discuss.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>The HDMI output to my PS4 recently broke. The pins inside the PS4 jammed and broke off. Now my PS4 has no output signal.</p>

<p>I called Sony and was told it was user error so they won't replace it for me.</p>

<p>The port is missing at least 2 pins. I have already taken the PS4 apart and couldn't figure out a solution. Is this part replaceable? Where I can find the part?</p>

<p>Thank you,</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPhone 4: The volume bar has disappeared. There's no sound in apps.]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,</p>

<p>When I press the + and - buttons, the volume icon appears, but the slider is empty. When I receive a call, I hear it ring, and I can hear the ringtones in the sound menu. However, the message/mail notifications don't make any noise, and I can't hear the sound menu.</p>

<p>I changed my LCD screen and upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 the same day. Now, I have a strange problem, and I don't know if the cause is an iOS 5 bug or a physical problem.</p>

<p>I restored the device many times on iOS 5, but it doesn't fix the problem. Here are some other symptoms:</p>

<ul><li>During a phone call, if I put the conversation on speakers, it works and the volume bar reappears. I can control the volume with the + and - buttons. But when the conversation is over, the bar disappears again.</li><li>With the headphones, everything is ok!</li><li>I also noticed (only a few times) that when I do a repring (with changing the language of the phone), the volume slider reappears and works correctly for 2 or 3 seconds, before disappearing again.</li></ul>

<p>My guess is that this is an iOS 5 problem, since the speakers work.</p>

<p>Can you please help me?</p>

<p>Thanks from Paris.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Having an issue w/what I think is the latest kitkat update.</p>

<p>I put off the installation for like a week, finally decided to do it on Friday night.</p>

<p>Install went without a hitch, rebooted a couple times and finally rebooted and everything appeared to be working as it should.</p>

<p>Anyways, this morning I notice my battery is down to like 25% so I plug in (Original charger and cable)</p>

<p>Let it charge throughout the day and go to pick it up (Had plans that required my tablet be on a decent charge)</p>

<p>I unplug it and power on, I can hear the startup chime but my screen is black (not totally black, it still has that powered up glow)</p>

<p>I've tried every button combination/sequence I can think of, have disconnected/reconnected the battery, Still No Joy..</p>

<p>WTF, Kitkat update is the only thing thats changed on my tablet lately and now its blown away..Its never been dropped, is always in its case except for when I had to disco/reco the battery, not a scratch/dent/blemish on it.</p>

<p>IDEAS???</p>

<div class="clearer"></div><div class="headerContainer"><h2 id="Section_Update" class="header">Update</h2></div>

<p>Thanks for the input Joy, Glad it has helped someone as well as yourself out.</p>

<p>Referring to my first post you'll see &quot;I've tried every button combination/sequence I can think of, have disconnected/reconnected the battery, Still No Joy..&quot; No pun intended w/the &quot;Still no Joy&quot; part.</p>

<p>Anyways, tried powering the unit up again this morning (with power/vol +/- buttons annnd nothing, Same old same old.getting along great w/my EVGA Tab but I do miss my GT3.</p>
