Has a life on his own

My iPad has a problem that comeback and goes, it has a life on his own.
Think that you use your finger, and click like a maniac on the screen, fast as lightning, opening programs, edit settings, surf internet, writing etc etc....
I just let it have a brake, and after few hours it can be used again.
I have restored it many times, but it did not get better.
What could be the problem??
What to do??

Try a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

My iTunes has a life of its own.....

Here is my dilemma. Ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard my iTunes has had a life of its own. It never did this before. It starts up whenever it wants. I could be in Safari for example and suddenly my iTunes fires up a shows on the screen. I never click on it or nothing. It gets quite annoying after a while.
At first I thought it might have something to do with me plugging and unplugging my headphones in my macbook. But it has done it once or twice without this action. The latest Snow Leopard update didn't fix it nor did the new iTunes version 9.
I'm at a loss. Anyone else see this or have a solution?

I have the same issue. Just today it's started happening. While watching a video I'd suddenly hear the intro to one of my podcasts, however when I paused the video the podcast would also stop. I close iTunes and all other unneeded programs when watching movies, and yet it opens by itself and begins to play the first podcast in my podcast library.
This has happened 5-6 times in last few hours, and is now driving me to want to uninstall iTunes (despite my large music library, iPhone, and iPod--listening Apple?) so I can make it through a movie without this interruption.
We all know how adept Apple is at issuing a software update when a jailbreak hits the internet, so why not apply some of the coding to this flaw?

Keyboard has a life of its own ...Help PLS!

hi,
my keyboard sometimes seems to have a life of its own. for example when I am using ITunes and filling out some from on the Internet it will mute the sound on its own and fill in a buch of charachters in the forms, as if I was pushing down mutliple buttons at the same time. the buttons that are always acitvated, at least from what i could see are the shift, e and 5. After a few seconds the the keyboard returns to normal. has anybody had a similar problem before?
I don´t know what could be the problem. Please help me if you can!
Thanks

Can't say I've experienced keyboard problems as you describe but I have had erratic trackpads. This Apple article helped:

IPhone 5 has a life of its own

I started noticing that my iPhone was acting weird after upgrading it to iOS 7.
1. When the phone is in sleep mode and someone calls you, you wont be able to accept the call because the screen is not working.
2. When you wake up the phone from its sleep mode, you wont be able to unlock the phone because the screen is not working.
3. If you happen to answer a call from its sleep mode, the phone will start dialling numbers or even end the call.
4. If you happen to unlock the phone from its sleep mode, the phone will have a life of its own and will start to open/close apps. Usually it will go to Messages and type "qzqzzqaqzqzqqaqzqzqzq" nonstop. Luckily, I haven't experienced the phone deleting anything by itself.
5. The funny thing is, I can bypass these problems!
*I can accept a call using the Apple Earpods.
*I can unlock the phone from its sleep mode by pressing the wake-up button 3 times and everything is back to normal.
*I can also accept calls while using the phone.
But now I'm sick and tired of doing these steps. I want a permanent solution.
*Phone is updated to 8.1.2
*Tried hard reset (Home button + Sleep button)
*Tried erasing the phone's content and restoring it.
*I haven't tried erasing without restoring the phone and use it like a brand new phone.
*I haven't tried removing the screen protector (free from otter case)
Can anyone please help me?
Thank you.

have you tried erasing it from the device or by a forced restore to completely reinstall ios? there are differences because if you restore from the phones menu, and there is a error in the software restoring from the menu it is possible the issue persists. if you did a restore, you should contant apple care there is probably something wrong with the device it's hardware!

There might be different reasons for that... SOFTWARE or HARDWARE !!!
First you will have to check if this happens only when you are running windows.
SOFTWARE:
If yes,
(1) a malicious program (trojan, keylogger etc) might be installed on your laptop, or
(2) a faulty driver might be the reason. Have you recently attached a usb mouse or keyboard to your computer? This might have installed a wrong or incompatible driver.
Start your computer and keep it in the PRE-BOOT stage (enter the BIOS-SETUP and wait to see if this will occure there again).
HARDWARE:
If yes, I assume that the contacts of your keyboard film are dirty. You will have to remove the keyboard, open the film-lock and clean the contacts with alcohol or a contact spray. If you are not familiar with this procedure, please consult the Technical support.

My Lacie external hard drive has a life of its own

Hi,
I've had my Lacie External hard drive for about 4 months and i have a recurring problem, it wont always show up in finder or on the desktop.
It shows up in disk utilities just fine, but stupidly the first time this happened i didn't know that you could right click and "open" it from disk utils, so i panicked and reformatted the hard disk, obviously losing everything inside.
Since then i have learnt from my mistakes and now when it vanishes (when i start up the computer it just randomly doesn't appear...) i just open via disk utils. But this isn't fair! It should appear EVERY time its switched on and plugged in. Thats what i paid for.
I issued a ticket with Lacie but with lots of trial and error they were able to tell me that is was more likely my imac and not the external hard drive. I am crossing my fingers hoping for help here!
Thank you for any help/advice in advance! Charlie

I used disk utility and tried "repair disk" and it said this... (yes, lol, my external hard disk is called peep)

Help! Mac Mini has a life of its own!

My mac mini (I have an 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running leopard 10.5.5
2GB RAM with 4 USB ports) all of a sudden is shutting down and running commands over and over on the screen. This is the computer my autistic son uses to communicate (he can't write-only type). so I need it up and running quickly...can anyone help?

Boot from the OS installer CD - you put the CD in, start up while holding the"c" key down.
Proceed as if you want to install the Os, until you see the Utilities menu on the top of the screen. Clcik there, then select Disk Utility. In the new window select the hard drive (in the left column), then click on Repair drive.
After that, run Repair Permissions.
Good luck.

When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my account keeps popping up on his phone. How can we change the ID on his phone?

When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my apple ID email address keeps popping up on his phone when he tries to download an app. We do not want to have all of the same apps on our phones. How can we change the ID on his phone? I already tried going to Settings>iTunes &App Store> and changing the Apple ID to his account email and that did not solve the problem. To make things worse, I recently changed my Apple ID email address (without getting a new ID) and I do not remember my old password (and this is the address that is popping up on his phone). He does not have any music on his phone and all of the Apps that he has are free. Any help you could offer would be great (-:

All apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that bought them. To stop your id from popping up, you need to delete the apps on his phone, and then repurchase them under his account.

I have 2 iphones in the family and want to use itunes match on both devices, but my husband has his own itunes acct, how can he use the main itunes library and get out music on his phone also

I have 2 iphones in the family and want to use itunes match on both devices, unfortunately my husband has his own itunes acct and when i change on his phone to my itunes acct it states that the email is already in use, any help on how to get the itunes match to go onto both devices, thanks

"Method Three
Create a separate iTunes library for each device. Note:It is important that you make a new iTunes Library file. Do not justmake a copy of your existing iTunes Library file. If iTunes is open,quit it.
This one may work. I searched and searched on the website for something like this, I guess I just didn't search correctly, lol. I will give this a try later. My daughter is not be back for a few weekends, therefore I will have to try the Method 3 when she comes back for the weekend again. "
I forgot to mention that she has a PC at her house that she also syncs to. Would this cause a problem. I am already getting that pop up saying that the iPod is synced to another library (even though she is signed in with her Apple ID to iTunes) and gives the pop up to Cancel, Erase & Sync, or Transfer Purchases. My question arose because she clicked on "Erase & Sync" by mistake when she plugged the iPod to her PC the first time. When the iPod was purchased and setup, it was synced to my PC first. When she went home, she hooked it up to her PC and then she erased it by accident. I was able to restore all the missing stuff yesterday using my PC. However, even after doing that it still told me the next time I hooked it up last night that the iPod was currently synced with a different library. Hopefully, you can help me understand all this. She wants to sync her iPod and also backup her iPod at both places. Both PCs have been authorised. Thanks

How to use multiple iDevices with one computer

I have an iPhone sync'd to my iTunes. My boyfriend has his own iPhone with his iTunes account set up within it. We want to sync his iPhone to my iTunes account on the PC but we wnt to retain everything from both phones and the iTunes account. Help?!?!

No. If you connect his phone to your iTunes account/computer, ALL iTunes content on his phone will be erased. By design, iPhone syncs or manually manages iTunes content with ONE computer at a time.

Nokia Messaging has a life of it's own.

Installed Nokia Messaging on my 5800XM a couple of weeks ago, and have struggled ever since to get it to work how I want, and am just about to bin the thing. But thought I'd make a last-ditch plea to see whether anyone can help me set it up the way I want.
I don't want an "always-on" function: I want to control when it synchronises. So I want to run the app when I want to, collect messages when I ask it to, and not do anything unless I command it. But it has a life of it's own ! My settings:
1. General: manual application start.
2. When to sync: (1) Days - nothing selected (2) Sync while roaming - always ask
3. Options - offline
I thought, with these settings, I ought to be able to manually sync by selecting Send/Receive. And so it does. But it also starts up automatically (if I turn it off it simply starts up again uncommanded); it synchronises even when the app isn't running; and the data transfer indicator shows it's trying to do something even when the app is turned off and the setting is offline.
In short I don't trust it not to start initiating a data transfer when I don't want it to.
Can anyone offer any clues as to what might be going wrong here ? If not, useful as it is, it's the Uninstall option soon !

ok just found out more info on this problem here is the link for anyone interested.

How do I share music with my husband who has his own Ipod without deleting his music and so he can view his music too on my itunes?

He has music on his Ipod but his computer broke. So he wants to use my mac book to buy music which he signed in and we have not bought anything yet. Plus how do we see his music on it itune on my computer. I already did home sharing but nothing yet. He wants to be able to use my computer like its his to get and share music. Please help Thanks.

The best way for him to share your computer is to set him up with his own user account on your macbook. I'm not talking about iTunes account or email account, I'm talking about a login to the computer itself. Go to System Preferences -> Users and Groups and create a new user there for him. You will see your user account while you
are there. Once you have set him up with his own computer account, have him sign in and open itunes and log into the iTunes store with his own account and it won't mess with yours. You guys will be sharing the disk space on your mac so try to keep that in mind.

My husband has been using my daughters apple if to log in to his ipad. can i set him up with his own apple id for this ipad? if so, how?

my husband got an ipad. he has been using my daughters apple id to log in to his ipad. she has an ipod touch. how do i make him his own apple id?

Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
If y do not want to use the common ID then:
Note
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
