Im having trouble with my Messages. The keypad sensors are going haywire. The other apps like FbMessenger are ok. What should i do?

The keypad sensors are going haywire. Only Messages has this problem. The other apps with messaging like FB messenger are functioning well.
And its not just with typing; even with scrolling up or down, the sensors wont cooperate. Pfft.

venicespent,
Boot into your Mavericks Recovery partition by hold down the command and R keys whilst booting. You'll see a screen that looks like this:
Click on the Disk Utility item to open Disk Utility. You should see your boot drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've changed it) in the column on the left of the screen. Select your boot partition and click on the "Verify" button. Let your Mac do it's thing - if you get green text telling you that everything seems to be OK, then your disk should not be damaged. If, however, you get red text telling you that the disk needs to be repaired, click on the "Repair" button. If the disk can be repaired, you should be good to go. If the disk cannot be repaired then the drive is damaged.
But before you do anything, make certain that you have backups!!!

    You can't do it in one step. Add to iTunes first, Once the tracks are in iTunes you may convert to a different format.

    I am having trouble sending an email from mail on my macbook pro. It keeps requesting my password. What should I do?

    There seems to be a few bugs with iCloud Mail at times, so send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Anyone else having trouble with i message?

    My I message is very slow and doesn't activate a lot on my devices, I even tried different networks over wifi and no joy!

    I had trouble texting today as the touch screen was not responsive until I rebooted. Had nothing to do with my carrier.
    I also have trouble with the SwiftKey app when the keyboard does not display.  I sometimes can get it back up by going in Setting-General-Keyboard-SwiftKey and turning it off then back on.  But just as many times it will only display again after a reboot. I don't know if this is iOS 8.1.1 or SwiftKey.

  • Hi! I'm from Brazil and I'm having troubles with subtitles. Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

    Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

    Solution found.
    I am a Vodafone customer and installed the Vodafone app which asks you to turn off wifi connection on installation as it needs to communicate with their servers over 3G.
    After restoring the iPad via iTunes this is the only app that I did nor re-install and seems to be too much of coincidence that while in full screen view watching films my wifi is switched off and 3G data connection is established 10 - 15 minutes into a fiilm and my data allowance gets eaten up!
    I would also get push notifications from Vodafone saying "my daily data usage was almost used" with this app installed.
    Have tested and on 3rd time watching sky go still wifi is on after 30 mins.
    DO NOT INSTALL VODAFONE APP FROM THE APP STORE.

  • I am new to Mac and am having trouble with uploading images from my pictures folder to Facebook and other share sites- some of my images are accessible while others are seemingly locked....

    I am new to Mac and am having trouble up loafing images from my pictures folder to photography sites and Facebook. Some of the saved images are accessible, while others are not, ( they are light colored and cannot be uploaded) I am not saving them any differently.

    Hi Robodisko,
    Thanks for your prompt reply...... 
    I often proof my work in preview then edit images in photoshop and rename from there.  The dsc images are renamed to correlate the name of the class etc.  i.e. dcs_001 is saved as the file name required 7A.jpeg etc.
    The file names are required to correlate what is what and so on..........

  • Having trouble with error message in itunes every since I had a new hard drive installed. Write access are not enough or permissions aren't allowed.  I have changed all of these in the corresponding folders, restarted and nothing works.  I need help bad??

    Got a new hard drive installed and since then, I cannot get purchased song into my itunes.  It is telling me that my write access or permission are wrong.  I have changed all and nothing works.  HELP!!!!!!

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • I am having trouble with PS6 - it somehow has become a trial of the extended edition

    My purchased copy of PS6 suddenly statered showing a trial version screen when I launched it.  I uninstalled PS6, cleaned the registry, deleted the cookies and temp files.  I then re-download my copy of PS6 from the Adobe page, re-installed and it worked fine for two sessions. On the third session, once again the trial screen for the extended version (I bought the regular edition) appeared and either I elect to "continue trial" or quit, at wihcih time PS6 exits.  I just want to be able to use the Photoshop  I bought without the trial BS.  I paid for a full up version I want to use a fulup version.

    Been having the same problem, but nothing works. Just started telling me my Creative Cloud software can't run due to an inability to validate. Tried entering the serial number for Creative Cloud. Says that serial number isn't valid. Tried entering my Photoshop CS5 serial number. Says that serial number isn't valid. Problem is, the licensing manager says that my trial has expired and so it will no longer let me use Photoshop. I'm a licensed Creative Cloud member and my software is no longer available. This is completely unacceptable. Adobe support is only available Monday through Friday during office hours. Designers don't work office hours. I'm now losing hundreds of dollars on a critical working weekend with a serious deadline and no software available for use. Completely unacceptable. People, avoid these cloud-based systems! You will suffer the consequences. Never again for me.

  • HELP!  I am having trouble with text messaging and sending pictures

    I have had the handcent app for a very long time and I have never had any issues with it.  Today I downloaded an up date and it is running VERY SLOW and also will not allow me to send pics. It just kicks me out to my home screen.  I have tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it which did not help.  I have tried uninstalling it and just using the standard messaging and it just keeps trying to load the screen to text.  I have tried restarting the phone and turning it off for a few minutes.  My notifications are not running correctly either.  The text pops up then the sound come a minute or two later.  Anyone have any ideas on what to do to resolve this issue or experiencing the same thing?
    Thanks in advance!

    From your description it sounds like you have something hogging up all your systems resources... Try downloading System Panel and activate the monitoring option under the settings and allow it to run and see if it shows any apparently that was using extremely high resources and then try to close it or you can try using a Task Killer for a minute and close. all unused Apps and see if problem continue.
    Also you could boot into Safe Mode and see what happens.. Instruction at http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=42081
