That's strange...
Resetting PRAM might help: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
If that doesn't help, I'd recommend contacting AppleCare.
it seem to be lcd problem

I synched my iphone4 on my wife's imac to down load pics but got 700 unwanted contacts. How can I get rid of them without doing one at a time?

I synched my iphone4 with my wife's imac with the hope of uploading pictures from my phone. Instead I now have 700 plus contacts on my phone I do not want. How can I get rid of them except one ata time?

iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
If this is not the computer you sync your iPhone with, you should have been provided a warning message that your iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer and when trying to transfer any iTunes content from a different computer, a warning message is provided indicating that all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first.
When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on another computer, none of the options under the various tabs for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes are selected automatically. This means you had to select Sync Contacts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your wife's computer.
Assuming you are syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, connect your iPhone to Tunes on your computer and without syncing, under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences below the Advanced section, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone followed by a sync.
For importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll which can be done with a computer that is not used for syncing the iPhone since syncing with iTunes is not involved.

My iPhone 4s keeps storing deleted emails. How can I get rid of them?

Hello RickJFalcon,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to delete emails from Mail. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
iCloud: Reduce email storage space
Delete messages, which moves them to the Trash, by doing any of the following:
Delete a message that’s open: Tap .
Delete a message without opening it: Swipe from the right to left over the message title in the message list, then tap Trash.
Delete multiple messages: While viewing the message list, tap Edit.
To permanently erase all messages in the Trash and free up iCloud storage space, tap Trash in the list of iCloud mailboxes, tap Edit, then tap Delete All.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

ITunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

iTunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
Click File
Scroll down to "show duplicates"
A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
For playlists, you will need to hit the name tab so that your doubles line up, from there you will have to manually delete them, it helps to hold the Control button to select multiple songs as a time ( they will be highlighted) then when your done selecting the songs you wish to delete, right click your mouse and select the delete option from the window tab.
Best of luck, please rate my response for help!

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

What are this things in my document and how can I get rid oth them

Hi,
I'm a happy recent switcher, I'm migrating my .doc documents to pages '08 but sometimes I'm getting weird vertical lines and triangles in the pages document.
What are they and how can I get rid of it, cause they get printed. There is no way to affect it using the mouse.
Thank you

Thanks anyway

I do not want to update to Lollipop right now. How can I get rid of the notification that wants me to install. It says 'Install Later' or Install Now. I don't want to do either so how can I get rid of this notification that keeps popping up?

You cannot stop it from popping up.
it will continue every few minutes until its installed.
just keep using the back button near right side of home button.

I cut photos from folder and exit iPhoto. When I return, the photos are back. how can I get rid of them?

How can I get rid of unwanted photos. As I'm going along removing pictures, they seem to be gone. When I return to iPhoto, they are back.

The original images are in your Library section - (events and photos). In order to delete them permanently, you need to select the image, and drag it to the trash in the left hand column of iPhoto, or go to "photos / move to trash".
This puts them in the iPhoto trash, and they are still not gone. To delete them completely, you must select trash in the left, then select to empty iPhoto trash.
All images you see in albums, or slideshow, are just short cuts back to the originals, in the events and photos sections. If you delete them from albums, they are still in the library section.

Rented movies won't delete; how can I get rid of them?

They have been on my iPad longer than 30 days, and I can no longer access them, but they are eating up memory and I can't download anything new. Can't find the files on my computer to erase the files there. I am at a loss. How can i get rid of the movies on my iPad?

Try tapping Videos, swiping your finger across the movie and then tapping delete.
If you can't delete the movie that way, try checking Manually managing music and videos from the iPad Summary tab in iTunes, then click the triangle to the left of the iPad under Devices in iTunes. Then delete the movie from the iPad using iTunes by clicking Movies under the iPad and right-cicking the movie and choosing delete.

Permanent vertical blue line the screen and a red one has just popped up too. What does it mean and how can I get rid of them?

I have had a permanent vertical blue line on the right side of my imac screen for some time now. It does not affect the use of the computer. A red one has popped up on the right side of the screen and is not going away either.
Would you know why these are appearing and perhaps how to get rid of them please?
Thank you in advance

Best guess is that either your GPU or LCD is failing. You should take it to the nearest Apple Store or AASP for proper diagnostic. Once you know what the problem is you can decide wether or not it's worth repairing.
