Anyone else have their iPad hijacked?

Anyone else have their iPad hijacked? Didn't think it was possible, but I have video of my iPad typing, opening apps, and attempting purchases by itself. I turned off the wifi and it still kept going. Not sure if they were connected to Bluetooth or not because every time I tried to go into settings they would close the window. I ended up just shutting the whole thing down. Has anyone ever had anything like this happen to them?

Ghost typing is what you are seeing and I have seen some other people talking about it. You weren't hijacked, there is a problem with your iPad. Or this is the first "documented" case on an iDevice being hijacked.
Do you have a screen protector on the iPad? If so, does it need to be cleaned?
Post a link to the video of you can.

HELP!! Does anyone else have their entire keyboard stop working with photoshop?

This varies for me but most of the time whenever I use Photoshop CC and CS6 my ENTIRE keyboard stops working. Not just the shortcuts but even in other apps too. The only keys that remain functional are the fn, control, option, shift, delete, all of the F keys, and command keys. I am not sure if this is due to me not having enough ram (I have 4 GB). Does anyone else have this problem and if so what did you do to fix it?

I also have this issue and it's driving me bonkers.
Latest Photoshop CC, up-to-date.
Win 8.1 Pro
Das Keyboard Pro on USB3 port.
Issue only with Photoshop - no other applications.
I have tried a brand new machine and a brand new keyboard (replaced my main workstation recently), so I know for sure it's not an issue with any of my hardware. I also know for sure that it's not an issue belonging only to one OS version, as I had the same issue with win7pro and win8.1pro.
For me the issue is that ALL keyboard keys stop responding completely in Photoshop until I hit the Windows key or otherwise maximise/bring to focus any other application, such as desktop or Outlook etc. Then I immediately bring Photoshop CC back into focus and the keyboard works again. Then after a few moments/clicks/commands the keyboard dies again.
The issue is 100% local to Photoshop CC, is not related in any way to Wacom drivers (I don't have any installed and don't use a tablet), is not related only to one OS and is not hardware related, as far as I can tell. Once again, I've had these issues on-and-off across 2 different machines with different keyboards.
I'm wondering if it's related to Teamviewer, since TV creates focus issues with certain other applications/games etc. I will try with TV closed and see if the problem goes away.
All CC apps are up-to-date.

Anyone else have their cc hacked after purchasing an iPhone?

My husband and I bought iPhones about a month ago, each using our own credit cards to make the purchases. Now within two days of each other our credit cards were hacked. When it happened to me over the weekend, I didn't think much of it. But now that it's happened to him I'm suspicious. He rarely uses that card, so for both of us to have the cards we used to purchase our iPhones hacked makes me extra suspicious.

I definitely contacted Citi to tell them that. I'm just surprised. I think I'm going to take my cc info off my iTunes acct. It'll be a pain to enter it manually every time I want to make a purchase with my phone but clearly Apple is having security issues.
Another thing to consider is Citi bank itself. Seriously, especially over the last five years or so, they have one of the worst credit card security records of any major bank.
Also, do you use those credit cards for any standing payments (cable bill, heat, electric, cell service, anything like that?). If so, contact them as well and ask about any recent security breaches - companies will often not inform customers of potential breaches until quite some time after the fact.

HT5167 did anyone else have their entourage email app shut down with no way to access it?

downloading 10.7.4 shut down my entourage email program. I cannot access it at all. I also cannot get any of my passwords to work on any email solution. ie. I downloaded the free trial of MS Word and tried Mail. Neither will transfer entourage data. they say they can't find it. I can't get my passwords to work on either of them also.
anybody else have this problem?

OK....I used the 'maintenance' utility, and ran scripts, repaired permissions, etc. When my computer restarted, I went to my wifes profile, ran 'disk utility' to repair permissions on her profile. Then I opened her browser and cleared her data, ie search cache, website cache, everything except her logon data. When that was done, I went back to my profile, and opened the browser. I'm at that point now, and all seems to be well. But then it seemed well when this first occured. Any guesses as to why this happened or what might have caused it to happen? A program conflict? A visit to a data-mining webpage? I know that some will tell you (or me) that macs are supposedly immune to viral or malware attacks, but there also are those who will argue that it is impossible to protect any computer, even a mac, from all infections. So, part curiosity and part pessimism create a curiosity. Any input would help.
Thanks.

Anyone else have their phone erase itself completely when upgrading?

I was upgrading to the ios 7, and suddenly my phone erased itself and everything in it.
Even my back ups on iTunes were gone.
It gave me one option: to restore to factory settings. Then it was saying "preparing to restore for 25 minutes. I had to close everything and restart my Mac. It then restored my phone to nada. It said my last back up was June 1st. It was 2 weeks ago. I lost all texts, all info and nearly 2 hours of productivity. I run 2 businesses with this phone. This is nuts. I am so frustrated!
Has this happened to anyone else?

this happened to me too, very quickly after i got my iPhone 5. You are still in warranty, so i would suggest you do what i did. I just went back to where i got the phone (AT&T for me) with my cord, told them that my cord stopped working and they just gave me a new one with out any issue! i use my phone for everything too, so i know how important this is! hope this helps!

Did anyone else have their phone reset after trying to update?

I had the same problems as most doing the update last night, then suddenly my phone came up with the plug into iTunes symbol. Even when I updated it stayed with that symbol, like t was stuck.
Eventually I managed to get it to reset, but it didn't restore from the backup so I lost everything. :(
How do I get it to restore from backup? Or have I lost all my photos?
Did anyone get this problem?

I'm experiencing a similar problem. My thunderbolt external drive (Lacie) and my external video card (TripleHeadtoGo) are both unrecognized. The Matrox troubleshooting tools say it's not even connected...
Resetting PRAM and SMC worked one time, but the next time my mac went to sleep, it lost the connection again, and I've now down several resets & reboots, and I've still got no thunderbolt connectivity. Very frustrating.
Avoiding bad updates is part of why I switched from Windows to a Mac.

Anyone else have their movies deleted from their computer?

Somewhere between now and last week, my computer had suddenly deleted movies I downloaded/transfered to my iTunes. Most of the movies were Digital Copies from purchased Blu-Rays. I searched my entire computer looking for each individual movie, but came with nothing. I tried checking to see if iTunes would let me redownload movies, but movies is the only thing that doesn't seem to be redownloaded. I'm worried; because 26 of my movies have suddenly disappeared from my computer and there's nothing I can do to bring them back. I purchased my MacBook Pro around May and the movies worked just fine ever since. Is there anything anyone can do to help me bring these missing movies back??

Get them from the backup copy on your backup drive.

After updating to IOS 8, my cellular enabled iPad will show "no service" unless turned off and completely rebooted. Does anyone else have this issue?

After updating to IOS8, my iPad 2, which has both AT&T cellular and wifi, needs to be completely turned off and rebooted to get cellular service. Does anyone else have this issue ?

Hi Hi Steve Giusto,
If you are having issues with Xxx_state issue here_xxX, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
HT5137
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -

If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Installing IOS 8 on my iPad slowed all the functions significantly, anyone else have this problem?

Installing IOS 8 on my iPad slowed all the functions significantly, anyone else have this problem?

There are many people experiencing the same with the iPad 2 and the iPhone 4S. The hardware in these devices is barely adequate to run iOS8. You can look for obvious menu settings (like turning off or minimizing background app refresh) but there is no getting around the fact that these two devices are barely up to running iOS8.

Almost everytime I sign into Game Center or into a game itself my iPad goes back to desktop. Does anyone else have this problem?

I'm having a lot of problems sometimes signing into Game Center, or when the game itself is loaded I will click on something and it pretty much crashes and goes back to desktop! This is very annoying. Just not sure why this keeps happening. Does anyone else have this problem and know what the cause of it may be?

My guess would be you don't have enough memory available to run the games that you are trying to play. This is not supposed to happen in iOS - but I have seen too many instances to believe that the iOS can handle it properly all of the time. My suggestion would be to close all apps in the recents tray, reboot and start over again and see if that helps.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
The problem could be something else software related and restoring the device might help, but I would start with this and see how it goes.

My ipad went blank last night for no apparent reason. It was on one minute, and then completely dark. I didn't touch it, it just seemed to have died. I tried turning it back on/off, but nothing happens. Anyone else have a similar situation?

Thansk for the reply King_Penguin...let me elaborate and see what you think...I had the ipad2 in the office and saw the battery was getting really low. I tried charging it with the iphone charger (connects to my pc at work). It took a while, but it got enough juice in the ipad2 to bring it back to life. when I got home, I hooked it up, and got to about 50%. All was fine, then I was attempting to hook it up to my TV with the AV adapter (or VGA adapter, whatever it is), left the ipad alone for a minute, came back to it, and that's when it went dark. I tried the home/sleep buttons, but only for about 5 seconds...any other suggestions in case that doesn't work? Thanks again...

I did the recent update on my ipad 7.0.4 and now it keeps freezing up and can not use it. Tried reboot and works for a second then freezes right up again. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

Madmonkey,
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Gaylefromnewhope,
Seems like you tried this all ready and it didn't help.
Next might be to reset all settings.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings
Note that when you do this you will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
If that doesn't help you might tries a restore of your iPad using iTunes on the computer you normall sync with. Do a backup and save all data first. Or
Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.
