Exposé error... some wierd bug... someone please help

I have a slight problem with my Ibook G4. Firstly the trackpad works most of the time but sometimes it just decides to give up on me.
Secondly and more importantly, sometimes while innocently working on my ibook, the exposé feature goes a bit crazy. Just randomly starts switching windows or exposing windows or spreading them apart. And if i have any text editor open or if a text feild is active before this wierd bug starts to manifest itself, then, everytime the exposé automatically and randomly activates the message 9ol.\ keeps getting typed in the text feild.
I have no control over this, and i just have to sort of wait for a while before everything comes back to normal.
I tried switching off the trackpad and using a normal mouse. Same error. I removed the exposé mouse corners, so that its only accessible thru the F-keys. Same error keeps coming. I even tried to turn the function in the keyboard settings which states i will need to press the fn key before being able to use the F keys for software functions. I still get the error.
I have no idea wht it is. Is it a virus? Is it some sort of bug in the O/S? Is it a hardware problem? Perhaps a loose connection somehwere. In the keyboard maybe.
This breed of lap top is sooo fragile. Little things upset it. I just bought it a year ago and been taking meticulous care of it. Yet its been giving me problems after problems. I guess its nothing compared to its big brothers in the power breeds.
Anyway, anyone with any idea what this problem could be and what course of action i could take to correct it, please let me know. Thanks.

Hi Karan,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
You might want to try starting up in Safe Mode and see if you have the same problem (More information in Knowledge Base Document #107393 on How to Startup In Safe Mode). You might want to try performing an Archive and Install (Knowledge Base Document #107120).
I hope that helps,
Jon

Your headline says iPhone 3GS, but your text says 3G.
iPhone 3G is not compatible with iOS5. 3GS is.

Have you received a resolution for this yet? I'm having exactly the same problem -- I purchased this software yesterday, got it set up, and ran through my first folder of images with no problem. When I tried to run the tool through my second batch of images, I got the error 21. I contacted Mike D, but he hasn't responded. Meanwhile I tried several combinations of uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting, and switching to a different image file to try and resolve, all with no luck whatsoever. If you have a solution that you could share with me, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks!

i am trying to develop a web application using tomcat. i have a servlet that will not compile because of two things. firstly, it says that package beans does not exist and secondle it gives an error becuase im using a user bean here to set some attributes but it keeps saying it cannot resolve symbol User. can someone please help me sort this out. thanks

You need to package the bean classes in the proper package (in your case beans), and then place them in WEB-INF/classes/<package dirs>.
Then you need to import the classes in the JSP.
Cheers!

Same problem here since latest update. As usual poor support from Apple with no answer or fix for this bug.

Runtime error--can someone please help me?!

ok so when i try to open my itunes (i have itunes 7) it opens but almost immediately a window pops up that says "software application has encountered a problem and needs to close. we are sorry for the inconvenience." it also says that they prepared an error report to send to microsoft about the problem. i've tried sending it but nothing has happened so now i click the "don't send" option. then a window pops up titled "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" and it says "Runtime Error! Program: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe This application has requested the Runtime terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information." i've tried uninstalling quicktime and then repairing iTunes but that doesn't fix it. i don't know what else to do. can someone please help me?!

NoClassDefFoundError happens because the JVM cannot find some class from your program, not because the OS cannot find your JVM (PATH regulates the latter, but not the former). JVM looks up classes in directories (or JAR files) specified through the -classpath option, like "java -classpath c:\myclasses MyMainClass". Read the online doc for the "java" launcher for more info.

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting GEAR drive is from:

Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

I've tried to download the flash player several different times and each time i get a connection error message.It downloads fine and when i run the file to start install, it installs up to 5% and then i get the connection error message. I've tried disabling my antivirus software, closing my browser for install and nothing.Can someone please help me? I'm using Firefox.

Hi!
I had the exact same issue, being on a mac. If you are on a mac and the connection error message occurs, then use this link http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg
It allows you to download it offline, which is what I used.
Hope I was help!

Are you using a Microsoft or Apache web server? If so, you can submit to a server-side script, which will bypass web mail and client-side email software such as OUTLOOK.
