Hard to Explain Mark on my Screen that keeps getting bigger

There is this mark on my screen that at first was very small and looked like something just on the screen, but its not, its like part of the screen is dead. And everyday it gets bigger. It's very annoying.

dead pixels probably
or the lcd is messed up
but its dead pixels
your screen will eventually get entirely ruined
u need a replacement
and they are not cheap
if u still have warranty go to the apple store (set up a genius bar appointment at apple.com first)
and see what they say
they might charge for a replacement
i highly doubt this
they should do it for free
or give you a replacement ipod
good luck
i currently have 1 dead pixel
hopefully i wont have more
since my ipod is like 2 years old

Won't respond. Have a blue screen that keeps flickering.

My MacBook pro is not responding. It has a blue screen that keeps flickering. Power button does not even work.

Safe Boot by restarting your computer while holding down the "shift" key. Safe booting disables all nonessential processes, often times allowing you to start up when you would otherwise crash.
As of OS X 10.5.6 Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache location in the /var/db/dyld directory. A corrupt cache here can cause the blue screen crash. Once you restart normally, the cache will be recreated. This should take care of the issue.

IPod problems that keep getting worse...

There isn't really a specific title that can fit my current dilemmas with regards to my iPod classic as there are many issues that I am currently pulling my hair out over and am in desperate need of getting my iPod back on the road.
Firstly a little background information as this may be part of the cause. I have had my iPod classic since the end of January this year, so it's not very old. My computer I am currently using however, is about 4 years old so is quite slow and battered. It does work though, and with relation to my iPod there is only one cause for concern. Whenever I plug my iPod in or any USB device that is, after a while the computer completely freezes up and the only way of resurrecting it is rebooting it. I don't know if this is related to my other problems, but this may be of use in diagnosis.
Anyway, about a month ago for some reason when trying to manually (I don't automatically sync my iPod) add an album, my iPod just seemed to flip out and the error 'Delayed Write Failed' came up. On ejecting my iPod all my 5000 songs and everything else had been wiped. After researching this problem on the internet I tried a thing called Disc Caching "Because iTunes tries to push as much data as possible as quickly as possible, Windows was unable to keep up, resulting in the error." this seemed to fit my problem, like I said the computer was old and this sounded about right. Unlucky for me, it wasn't that easy and I had no joy.
I've lost count of the amount of times I restored it and every time I try to add new music the same 'Delayed Write Failed' message comes up, or the computer just completely freezes before the message has the chance to come up. The message usually appears after putting 200 or so (there is a definite number of which I'm not sure of) songs on. I've also had the message 'attempting to copy to the disc 'iPod' failed. The disc could not be read or written to.' one or twice also.
This evening I tried again to get my iPod working, but it didn't even load up in iTunes (the programme opened, but that's as far as it got) and then resulted in a freeze up of the computer.
I shall try my iPod on another computer to see whether it is the compueter's fault or my iPod itself, as perhaps this may shed some light on the situation. For the record I also have an iPod mini that I use to run with, this has always been fine and is working now as well as it ever has. I also tried connecting my classic with a Firewire cable which worked fine on the mini and didn't result in a freeze up either, but of course this doesn't work with the classic (I do know why).
I would appreciate some advice on my situation immensely as I can't live without my iPod and I miss it so much. Any advice I thank in advance!

I'm getting a new laptop for my birthday in about a week, so there's no need to reinstall Windows all over again. Plus I would probably make the computer blow up or something if I did this.
Tonight I tried my iPod on another friends computer. Although his is also old, it did not freeze up like mine. Now that is obviously a problem with my system and has already been addressed. However my iPod again proceeded to misbehave. It got to about 270 (ish) songs and then the dreaded error came up saying 'attempting to copy to the disc 'iPod' failed.' But when I ejected it, it still had the small amount of music that I was able to put on, on it.
Later, I tried to put about five songs on but the error: The iPod 'x' could not be synced. An unknown error occured (-1303).
So now I have diagnosed that it is obviously the problem with my iPod. Although, should I try it on my brand new laptop that may get rid of all the other previous problems?
I would be eternally grateful for any help as I can't stand life without my iPod!

How can I remove this awful "Search for anything you want" screen that keeps preventing me from returning to my launcher's home screen?

I'm a long-time user of Firefox for Android. I love it. However, something very frustrating has been going on recently.
I have a Galaxy S5 Active ( Physical home button ) and lately, nearly every time I press the home button, I get this extremely irritating screen which displays "Search quickly for anything you want". Sometimes I press the home button over and over and it won't go away. I will press home after reading an SMS, and there it is. It is driving me insane, and there have been times where I have really wanted my phone to work "right now" and that screen pops up and gets in my way.
This didn't used to exist for me. I really, REALLY don't want to switch to a different browser, but I can't find any info on how to deal with / suppress this new search screen.
Any way to do this? Or can this issue be addressed if not? I wondered if it had something to do with having an actual home button, as opposed to a capacitive one.
Thanks for reading.

Thank you for the reply. I wanted to wait awhile in order to ensure that this corrected the issue. For a brief while, it did! However, it did not take long before the screen began once again hijacking my home button presses. This occurs even with Firefox removed from default applications ( triple-checked ).
This never happened before version 35.

I have a screen that keeps coming up, is this part of Forefox updates ?

I am unable to paste a screenshot, title reads "Open Software Updater', and it has a MCafee logo on it. But I do not have MCafee on my system ?

You can't attach a screenshot to the first post that starts a thread, but you can do that in subsequent replies.
If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or other software then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
*Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
*Plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I-phone 4 froze after an update, will not shut down and sends all calls to voicemail. Apple logo is the only screen that I get, is there anything I can do?

I-PHONE 4 FROZE AFTER AN UPDATE, WILL NOT SHUT DOWN AND SENDS ALL CALLS TO VOICEMAIL, IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?

Unplug it and let unit go dead. Then hold your Home button down and plug the USB power cord back in. iTunes should see it and then restore.

Whenever i am using my laptop and my palms are on the base of the laptop and i am typing all of sudden... my screen size keeps resizing bigger or smaller

i try to keep my thumb palms off the mouse pad when i am typing but every now and then my screen resizes larger or smaller until i take my left palm off the keyboard base its only when my left palm is resting on the base next to the touch pad. i type pretty fast so it gets annoying and yes it also jumps screens or reverts back to previous message and i have to choose ctrl z to undo and get back to my message i was typing... it also switches tabs on me as well... not sure why my palm being on the left of the keypad on the base should effect anything but it does after a while. and i have to stop what i am doing...and go to the firefox menu and change the screen size back down to 100% sometimes it goes up to 200-300 other times it goes down to 70-80% i find it annoying i i wish there was a way to turn off the screen resize in the setup panel. if its just left to be 100% i am happy with that... i don't need it to be bigger or smaller... there should be a way to LOCK it down... i understand that there are people out there with eye problems and needs to have the screen size increase using the + or - but there should be a lock so it just stays no matter what is happening on my keypad or touch pad or base of the pad... that screen size will not increase or decrease. unless i turn off the lock... perhaps this is something they can implement in the next version or do a quick update of the browser

Why does my home screen icons automatically get bigger

As soon as I turn my iPhone 4s on the home screen icons increase in size automatically and then I am unable to use the bottom of the screen on the home screen and on many apps. Any way to stop it from doing this? Thank you

I wanted to also mention that I have gone to Accessibility and made it where it does not zoom with the three finger tap. That does not fix my problem, but I will say I have to have this feature turned on in order to use the bottom row of my keyboard. I am able to get to the characters/letters that I need if I zoom in. That and flipping my screen to landscape are the only things that have allowed my phone to function until I can upgrade.

Screen keeps getting bigger

My screen keeps becoming too large to use. And now also momentarily freezes, i have been rebooting to solve the problem, but it reoccures, sometimes within five minutes, suggestions please

Hello Sagalout,
It sounds like you may have the Zoom accessibility feature turned on. I suggest going into settings and make sure this feature is turned off because it sounds like you may be activating it on accident.

Zoom
Use three fingers and double-tap the screen to enable Zoom. If you need to increase the level of Zoom, use three fingers to double-tap and hold, then move your fingers up or down on the screen to increase or decrease magnification.
