Has anyone else had an issue where Mail.app signatures and rules disappeared?

For unknown reasons, I lost all my Mail.app signatures and Rules on Oct 10, 2012 at about 9:00AM PST.
Anybody else see something like this?
Also, I am getting sandboxd warnings that are Mail preference related....
I am guessing that the preferences access error that the sandboxd is having is related but who knows...
Anybody seen these kinda log messages?
11/8/12 6:08:53.579 PM sandboxd[1589]: ([423]) Mail(423) deny file-read-data /Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
repeated many times per hour.
there also seems to be a problem with the mdworker process .... that is perhaps related to the Mail issue....

I think this is an issue with the phone's proximity sensor (the one that turns the screen off when you hold it up to your ear). It's a bug that seems to occur when you switch to another app (any app) while still on a phone call. You'll notice in Messages that the screen goes dark when you move your thumb over the earpiece/iSight camera, but not when you move your other thumb.
Simplest solution is to force-quit the Messages app (double-click the home button, and swipe up on the app). The problem should resolve itself when you restart Messages.

  • Has anyone else had the issue of the the screen randomly flashing black only when using Messages app in landscape?

    I have been having an issue with the screen flashing black for several seconds then turning back on. This olny occurs in the Messages app and only in landscape mode. I have never noticed the issue in any other app. The issue is 100% repeatable. Has anyone else had this issue or know of any solutions to what seems to be a bug?

  • Has anyone else had the issue of losing the YouTube apps on the original IPhone after updating to 4.3.5

    Has anyone else had the issue of losing theYouTube app on the original IPhone after updating to 4.3.5?  (The Restrictions is turned as OFF)
    The Youtube app is now cleaned away from the IOS 4.3.5
    Any help would be appreciated.

    This still doesn't make sense. The iPhone 4 may have come with a number of different versions of iOS out of the box depending on when it was purchased and how long it had sat on the shelf.
    If you can't find it, check restrictions and make sure you haven't locked it out.

  • Since downloading OS X Yosemite I have been having issues with Netflix. Video slows down which causes the audio to go out of sync. Netflix plays ok on ipad which makes me think it's the software which is the issue. Has anyone else had this issue?

    Try this:
    Go to System Preferences - Bluetooth. Delete the keyboard from the list of devices by pressing the "-" button. Take the batteries out of the keyboard and reinsert them. In Bluetooth Preferences press the '+" button to add the new device. If the keyboard begins to pair, click the word "pair" and type in the passcode. Press return. The keyboard is now paired.
    If the mouse is not pairing, try this: shut down the computer completely, unplug any USB mice, then turn off the power to the bluetooth mouse.  ONce the computer starts up again, wait for the pop-up looking for a mouse.  Turn on the power to the bluetooth mouse.  It should work normally now.

    Error -1
    Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    My iPhone 4S will not sync with the music I have selected in iTunes.  Has anyone else had this issue and what is the best way to fix it.

    Hi,
    Setting up syncing
    Before setting up syncing you should download and install the latest version of iTunes. Wi-Fi syncing requires iTunes 10.5 or later and iOS 5 or later. You can change your sync options at any time. Each time you sync, content is synced between your iOS device and computer to reflect new, updated, or deleted content.
    USB syncing
    Open iTunes.
    Connect the iOS device to your computer using the included USB cable and select it in iTunes under Devices on the left-hand side. Some tabs may not appear if you do not have corresponding content in your library. For example if you do not have any podcasts in your library, the corresponding Podcast tab will not appear.
    Click Apply, in the lower-right corner of the screen, to sync.
    Wi-Fi syncing
    Open iTunes
    To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable. Select your device under Devices on the left-hand side.
    In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi".
    Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when all of the following are true: 
    The iOS device is plugged in to power
    iTunes is open on the computer
    The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
    While the iOS device appears in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
    Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
    Hope this helps

  • Loud feedback squeal during phone calls on iPhone 5 in life proof case, has anyone else had this issue?

    I have had my IPhone 5 for one week and just installed it in a life proof case. After installing it in the case I started getting a loud feedback squeal while talking on the phone. There was no squeal when the phone was not in the case so I suspect the case is causing the reaction. I work in construction so this case is a must to keep the phone safe. Has anyone else had this issue or is there a solution so that my phone can remain in the case?

    I have the same problem, guess i'll try it without the case and see.

  • Has anyone else had trouble with their photo app? everytime I try to edit a picture my phone restarts.

    has anyone else had trouble with their photo app? everytime I try to edit a picture my phone restarts.

    You have to go into your Gmail account settings.
    Then Security.
    Then turn ON 2-Step Verification
    Follow the instructions to link a cell phone to your google account. They will text you a secondary code and once you've entered that your 2-step verification will be set up.
    Then you should have the option on the bottom of the page to add a device. Call it apple tv and then it will generate a secondary code specifically for your Apple TV.
    On the Apple TV itself, ultimately I think you have to enter just the first part of your e-mail address (before the @gmail.com) as your Youtube login username.
    Then you should enter your gmail account password.
    Apple TV will tell you it is incorrect.
    Then, retry and enter the long secondary password that google generated for the apple tv.
    That should do it.
