Computer Re-sets Itself every 2-3 Minutes
My Mac has recently started re-setting itself every 2-3 minutes. If I am working off another computer on my network, it will flash me out of there and I have to start over. Any suggestions? I have a Power Mac G5 OS10.4.11.
Anything like the below?

iphone 3gs- updated to the ios 5.0.1... since then i plugged it into itunes, an now my phone restarts itself every 3-4 minutes!!! it so annoying! its useless, i cant do anything with it. restored it 4 times and its still doing it!!! please help!!!
i contacted o2 and they said id have to pay to get it fixed after sending it away for ten days if their was a fault, when im still under warranty!! contacted apple who will get back to me!I am assuming you updated to version 5.1.1, not 5.0.1 since no legitimate version of 5.0.1 is available.
Where is this iPhone from and what means did you use to unlock it? -
IPhone 4 keeps rebooting itself every 1-2 minutes.
Hi!
Yesterday I got my white iphone 4 parts that I changed out of my black parts through a guide on youtube. Everything went well and put in place, I turn it on and everything worked. Five minutes later my cellphone rebooted itself and I did not think it was anything to worry about. After that it just kept rebooting every minute. I thought it was wrong on the white parts, so I switched back to the black parts again but it continues even now. It works 5min until it gets "No Service" then the screen goes off and the phone reboots. There is also something odd about the battery meter, sometimes it can be 0% and sometimes 100% when it started again.
I have tried everything. Took everything out and put it back in again, done a clean restore from itunes, etc.. Do not know what more I can do.
Anyone know what to do or what the problem is?
Thanks!Seems like you are out of luck here. Your warranty is voided considering that you changed the black parts to the white parts. You even tried restoring, which that did not help. Even if you go to the Apple store, it is very unlikely that they will replace it, just because white models are not out and they can check what the actual color of the phone was through the serial number and the model number.

Hard drive parks itself every 10 to 30 minutes
Hi,
I just received a L750-BT4N22 Toshiba laptop. Every 10 to 30 minutes when the computer is not in use the hard drive will park itself. I have searched on the internet and some seem to think this is related to the power settings. The only thing I changed was when the computer is plugged in I have it set to "never" go to sleep. Has anyone ever heard of this and what can I do to stop the hard drive from parking itself every so many minutes?
Thanks,
yetoHi,
Thanks for your reply.
I changed the settings to 360 minutes but the hard drive still (parks/or turns on and off very quickly) every ten minutes. It makes a click-click sound. It is not coming from the speakers. It is coming from the drive itself. Would you know of any power settings that Toshiba has installed that might be different versus Windows 7? Would you have any other suggestions that I can try?
I have 4 Toshiba laptops and this is the only one with this problem.
Thanks in advance for any help. -
I have not been able to use iTunes for several months. Every time I open iTunes, it freezes by computer such that there is about a minutes between each action. I am running iTunes 11 on Mac OS 10.6.8 and have a computer with maxed out memory. Help! I can't access my iTunes content.

2 days ago i dropped my phone in water and immediately got it out and tried to dry it off.
I switched off the phone and left it in un cooked rice for 48 hours, i switched it on today and everything seems to be working fine.. apart from... the phone keeps switching itself off and re-booting every 5 minutes
i have since taken the back case off, dried it, put it back together and left it to dry out even more.
does anyone know what else i can do? or what the excate problem is that is causing it to switch off and re boot every couple of minutes?
The problem is that it got wet while it was under power, this most likely will have caused a short between parts of the circuitry that normally are separated. It may (if you stop using it while there is some moisture left inside it) revert to normal operation, frankly I doubt that very much.
Take it to Apple for diagnosis, you can avail yourself of a 'non warranty replacement' while you are there, if needed. -

My ipod disabled itself for 23 million minutes. How can I fix it if I don't have itunes on my computer?
A computer with iTunes is not required
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You need the iPod and iPad conencted to the interned and FindMyiPod turned on on the iPod an the iPad need to have the FindMyiPhone app installed. That now requires iOS 7 on the device.
You can also wipe by on a computer/s browser, going to icloud.com>FindMyiPhone -

ITunes 10.5 starts itself every few minutes for some unknown reason
iTunes 10.5 installed on a Vista system to perform the iPhone 5.0 iOS upgrade. Now iTunes starts itself every few minutes for some unknown reason. Exiting iTunes will close it (and, of course, remove it from the Task manager list of running applications), but in a while it will restart all over again.
Thoughts?if u have wifi sync on turn off open when this ipod/iphone/ipad is connected

HT1435 iPod Classic reboots itself every minute, is there a way to restore it?
After populating a new iPod Classic up to 50GB of 160GB space, it reboots itself every minute. No chance for iTunes to recognise so no way to reset/reload the device.
Any other way anyone can suggest? Mainly to delete the contents before replacing/returning to the shop.Have you had a look at Troubleshooting here...

I am using Apple mail on my Imac. My emails are coming in but always late...the delay varies from 15 minutes to over an hour.
Im using imap...email hosting is via Godaddy. (imap.secureserver.net) I would normally blame Godaddy, but I use the same account on my Iphone... yet their is no problems whatsoever. I set them up using the exact same information.
- Mail check is set to every minute.
- Connection Doctor successfully connects right away for both incoming and outgoing.
- Closing the program and reopening does not work... Nor does going offline and checking for mail.
- Check mail button does nothing...literally nothing.
Currently using Yosemite 10.10.2
Any help would be greatly appreciated!:)Delete the GoDaddy account from Internet Accounts (make sure to select Remove All)
Locate the Cached folder, after you find the com.apple.mail folder, delete everything inside the cache (all folders and files)
Restart your machine
Re-add your email account from within Apple Mail: Mail - Accounts... - Add Other Account
Fill out your account info fully, re-launch Mail -
My motorola cable modem reset itself every 15 or 30 minutes
why does my motorola cable modem (sb6141) reset itself every 15 or 30 minutes everyday?
Start with the modem's signal stats. Perhaps they already are, or they are close to being out of spec and intermittently they go completely of spec. Try getting them here http://192.168.100.1
Please post the *Downstream Power Level*, the *Upstream Power Level*, and the *SNR* (Signal to Noise Ratio) numbers. -
Since installing IOS7.0.2 my iPad keeps rebooting itself every few minutes. I can't do anything with it and cannot download the new IOS7.2 because it doesn't run long enough to accomplish the download. What can I do?
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.
