Every time I unlock my homescreen on my Droid mini, it flashes once and turns itself off.

When this happens I can't use anything on my phone. What do I do?

Hi missmeliann - Let's make sure your phone stays shining and able to be used! Have you recently installed any new applications? Does the device display any sort of errors?
Thank you,

Hi, I would like to know, why is it that my iPhone's flash lights every time I recieve a notification??? is there any option to turn it off?

Hi, im from Colombia And: I would like to know, why is it that my iPhone's flash lights every time I recieve a notification??? is there any option to turn it off?
(iPhone 4s)
Or is it a hardware problem?
Thanks for your help!

Settings/general/accessibility - turn off "LED Flash for Alerts".
Then go read the manual - http://support.apple.com/manuals/

When hovering over a webpage image, the URL associated with the image pops-up at the bottom of the browser. I do not want this information to pop-up every time I hover my cursor over a webpage image. How do I turn this off?

The pop-up appears at the very bottom left of the Firefox browser. Again, it displays the URL associated with clicking on the image for '''every image''' on the webpage.

The easiest way is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages or URL hover previews, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.

Almost every time i unlock my iPhone many apps appear to be installing simultaneously

Almost every time i unlock my iPhone many apps appear to be installing simultaneously, and after a few seconds the "install" or something like that and i can use them again.
This happens on my iPhone 4s and iPad 2, both with 5.1
I think this is happening since 5.1, has someone the same problem?

Hi
It seems you are using the same account in both devices. In Settings --> Store, check if Apps is on or off.
if it is on, just turn it off.

How do I stop apps from reloading every time I unlock my iPhone?

How do I stop apps from reloading every time I unlock my iPhone? I have an iPhone 4 and at least 95% of the time I unlock it, some apps act as though they are reinstalling. It only lasts for about 3 seconds if that but it makes me feel like something is wrong with it. Does anyone else have this problem??

Could you explain what you mean by this? What is happening that makes you think they're reinstalling?

Settings>Store...make sure you are signed in. If not, sign in. If you are signed in, tap the ID shown...sign out...then sign back in.

My iPhone is skipping back to the start of a song every time I unlock it, especially when I am replying to a text message, this is very frustrating and just want to know if it is a simple bug that will be dealt with in the next update?

Assuming the phone isn't jailbroken, the basic steps (as needed) are:
Restart phone (you already did this)
Reset phone
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
See appendix B of the User Guide for details
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
If your phone is jailbroken, this is the most frequent cause of the problems you described. Restoring could permanently brick the phone.
Note that your iOS is old and the current version is 4.2.8. It's odd that it wasn't updated when your activated your phone in iTunes, being that you got it last Friday.

I'm having problems with iPhoto and the facebook set-up. Every time I attempt to do so it says an error has occured and try again later. I have not seen a solution posted. Therefore, how does one contact Apple to solve the problem? I'm new to the world of iMac but I find it a bit frustrating trying to solve basic issues/problems:(

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I read online about a "clean reinstall" of firefox which seems to have worked! They should include direction on this on their page: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+crashes+when+you+open+it

Every time I reset Safari, I have to re-sign into the iTunes and App stores. Related or coincidence?

It seems that every time I reset Safari, I have to reestablish credentials with the App and iTunes Store. Are there cache or web site data files that are common to all three of those applications?
Currently using Safari 7 with OS 10.9.

Thanks, Bee. I reset my browsers on quitting as a matter of course, Most other browsers allow this in a preference setting, but I have a macro for Safari which resets it before quitting. I've noted that the problem is not Safari's alone -- any cache cleaner, like NetShred -- seems to have the same effect. I suppose I was questioning the linkage, though. I would have thought that store credentials would be treated differently than browser cookies and cache files. The cleaners I've used so far allow you to add disparate files to the cleaning routine. I haven't yet found one that allows you to say, "Don't touch that one..." I'll keep looking.
Thanks for the help, Bee.
