At night, as soon as I plug my iphone to be recharged, my iphone starts behaving anomaly. It is like somebody has taken control of it. I see the screens moving, music starts playing and then stopping, etc. I have noticed that several nights. What I do is in Settings is to change into Plane Mode, thinking that, may be if I do that, somebody that has taking control of it will not be able to download data. Yesterday night, I was awakened by an alarm, whose setting I did not changed. When I looked over, the alarm screen changed to Settings and the Plane Mode changed alone in front of my eyes, from on to off.
I have not observed such a situation during the day. Only when I plug the cable.
I suspected that may be there is no Trojan installed. May be the cable, which is a spare cable, has been modified by a hacker, and it has electronics installed in the connector. But tested with the original cable, and the behavior was the same, as described above.
Thanks Meg for your reply.
It could be that both cable are bad. But, anyway, you would not expect any of these manifestations, even with a bad cable. I had bad cable for my 4s, and never saw such a thing!
I contacted by chat the support of Apple. They told me that this behavior could be a software problem and recommended me to do a full recover of my iphone. That meant, putting in at the factory conditions and recup all the data from the backup. I did that, and the behavior did not change. The backup was made with the data of my PC, not icloud. Tomorrow will try with icloud and check if that will work.

My iPad screen has gone black. I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again. I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...I'd rather not reset it to the factory settings as I have a lot of things I worry about using. Either way seems to me that the system itself is working since I can hear it working, but its the screen that isn't. It has not been dropped and has been in a case for years! Please help!
When the power is on and I press the home button, I can slide my finger where the slider bar "would be" and it makes the noise as if its "opening" flashes a blue screen then returns black...

So I recently got a Mac Mini about two weeks ago and for some reason while I am on it the display will go blank and then return after a few seconds. It is happening very frequently. I checked the HDMI cable, I checked my tv and nothing seems to be wrong with them and I don't know what is going on.
I am getting a bit frustrated because this Mac is brand spanking new and it is totally acting up for no reason whatsoever.
Could someone please help me with this? I don't want my new computer to be useless. I need it.Which TV model do you have?
Be aware of the fact that very many TVs do expect video signals on their HDMI inputs, not data signals from Macs or PCs. Please consult your TV manual if PCs or Macs can definitely be connected via HDMI, or if e.g. only DVI or RGB/VGA connectors are to be used.
In case of DVI inputs for data being present, it's not a problem if an HDMI->DVI adapter, or better, cable is being used.
Many users here are overlooking this potential reason for problems, assuming that HDMI outputs must always communicate with any HDMI input, certainly also because TV manufacturers do not "advertise" such limitations loudly.
AV receivers with multiple HDMI inputs and a single HDMI video output to the TV are typically more "tolerant" and provide a sort of "converter" function. If present, feed a Mac's HDMI signal into the receiver, not the TV directly. If the receiver does not have enough HDMI inputs, consider to connect rather a video source (DVD player or similar) directly to the TV than the the Mac. -
It's the biggest tease ever haha! I can see the photo beautifully merged but then it forces me to close the program! I have tried this a few times and it's always the same. So annoying. I have never had this problem before until I recently updates to CC from CS6. Any thoughts? Do I just simple reinstall the program?
This panorama consists of at least eight single shots which were (in my opinion) not taken
using a tripod by rotating the viewline about a fixed point. They are more or less somewhat
arbitrary shots.
Merging these requires a kind of optimization which can fail because of numerical problems,
though the intermediate result seems to be convincing. A crash log cannot help.
A remedy would be the manual arrangement of the single shots, varying the degree of
overlapping. That was available in older versions of Photoshop (for me in CS2).
Enlarging your example, we can see some hairlines, like edges of torn paper. What's that?

Suddenly, my Classic ipod got two narrow, black lines runnings horizontally across the screen. Will thes eventually go away or is the screen damaged?
Thanks!You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.

It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less. Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

The place that has the spot is about the size is about 2cm,it still works where the spot is. I haven't sat on my phone or hit it too hard, not that I remember. I noticed a while ago. Will it disappear? I can see the things that should be where the spot is eg it's on the keyboard and I can see the keys. Will this spread to the whole screen? How can u get rid of this?

In iTunes I would like to set it to bookmark where I am holding in a song on my iPOD. Let's say I want to play a song that I listen to yesterday and stopped playing it in the middle on my iPOD. Today, I want to listen, on my iPOD, to the same song and have it start playing where I left off yesterday.
Can someone please tell me what I have to do in iTUNES to have this feature on my iPOD?
Thank You
DovidiTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first. Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one? The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless). To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes. To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
Realize what you are talking about is not "backup". Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded. -
When I try to synch my iPhone 4 with iTunes - both at the latest code levels - the synch goes normally until the last stage where I get the message Finishing sync. It nevers completes. Eventually it times out and states that the iPhone is not responding. On the phone the sync icon has gone away so the iPhone thinks that it is done.
More information. During the synch process this last time it moved through the first 5 steps fine. At some point during the "Waiting for items to copy" the iPhone stopped showing the sync icon.

I haven't used my eleven month old Mac book pro in two months and when I turned it back on it gets stuck at the silver wheel with the wheel of death spinning it has been like this for two hours
Could you specify the model of MacBook and the OS X it's running, please? Some of the advice or references vary along with the system, so this could be helpful to formulate a reply. I've never used a Guest User selection, but do have more than one User.
If the computer does not have an optical drive, you may be able to boot it into a recovery disk mode or something; in an attempt to see what is wrong and maybe fix it.
Good luck & happy computing! -

Can I find my phone if the theif has simply gone into settings and turned the "Find my iPhone" toggle to off?
Hello rbmc25
If you are using iOS 7, then no they cannot easily just turn off Find My iPhone. If they do, then it will ask for the Apple ID password. If it is not showing up, then that means the device is not connected to the internet through cellular or Wi-Fi. Check out the article below on Activation Lock.

Unable.to.reset my iphone..wen i.do.it goes bak.to settings menu...any.one help.plz
Hello Philly,
I believe that when you reset your ipod(command given from the computer, right?) touch WHILE the ipod was updating, It cleared the system in the middle of writing files, thus corrupting(equivalent of cutting of in the middle of a sentence) the basic running system.
I suggest you go to an apple store and ask for a technical diagonosis in person. they may offer to help if the problem is fixable. If your ipod is still under warrenty, i would guess it would be free/low cost.
~Remember, I am just giving an educated guess on limited information -
My iTunes will only play one song and then stops.
In a playlist, my iTunes will play only one track and then it stops. Won't move to the next song, won't work in shuffle mode, just plays once and that's it! Any ideas? This just started a few days ago, maybe with a recent iTunes update? I'm in 11.0.3 (and of course, my AppleCare has just expired).
Hello kitkatmac
I would check to make sure that the songs in your playlist are check in the checkbox section. If they are not the songs will play and then stop once it is done playing like you have described.
