Have to tap everything 3 times so I can go into it and I can't drag
My friend was playing on my iPod touch & I came back to it and now everytime I tap something a box around it appears and I have to tap it twice more so that I can go into anything. I don't know how to scroll down & my friend doesn't know what they've done. As I can't scroll down I can't go through all the settings, and set anything back to normal. If someone could even tell me how to scroll so I can try & fix it that was I'd be so greatful!
Hi, not sure if you have sorted this out yet but it just happened to me and i have managed to sort it.
You need to use 3 fingers on the screen together to scroll. Once y'v done this go to 'settings' tap on 'general' down to 'accessability' then on the top is 'voice over' ..turn this off. This hopefully should rectify this problem.

Hello, Alayah14.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This sounds like VoiceOver has been enabled. Here are the steps on how to disable this feature.

I have the new 2011 macbook pro, with lion preinstalled. I want to change the harddrive. I have backed up everything on time machine. when i put my new blank hard drive in will the lion screen startup.How do i get the lion dmg when i am already using lion

When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process. This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition. The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.

I have tried loading 3 different cds that I recently purchased into Itunes. I click the import cd button and Itunes goes through the motion of copying and importing the cds, but the songs are not in my music library. I have searched everywhere to find where these cds might be, but to no avail. Could really use some help here. Never used to have this problem.
Are they in the relevant artist & album folders when you look via Windows Explorer. If so something may have gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem.
If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

This morning, i downloaded about 16 songs to put on my ipod, and i manually dragged them over to my ipod to sync that way (like i always do because the music on my ipod came from a different computer which I no longer have) and on my way to work, i realized my ipod says "no content" under Music. However, when I plug my ipod into itunes and click on the music tab under my ipod name, all of my music is there. What happened and how do i get that music back on my ipod? I need help asap.
You had a glitch and the music files got corrupted. I know of no way to uncorrupt them.
You can try using a computer app like iFunbox
http://dl.i-funbox.com/
to see if yo can get them from the iPod in a usable file.
Otherwise you will have to re import them to your computer and sync
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

I might have downloaded BIOS DISPLAY twice by mistake, since then I can not drag a picture in CD/DVD after inserted the disk. When I try to drag the picture, the computer is asking me "insert a writable disk," and the disk comes out before I paste the documents or pictures. Please help. I can not save anything right now.

I have been trying to reorganize my files. When in Manila I created a folder called Manila 2015 in Documents. I have the Mother folder Files 2015 with several subfolders like Finances, Personal, Tax etc. I want to have two finder folders simultaneously so that I can drag and drop files from the Manila 2015 folder to the various subfolders in the mother folder Files 2015. I am not able to open two windows of Finder on the desktop.
I have since found out that a new finder window can be opened witht the short cut Command+N.
Thanks anyway. -

After using my new iPhone 5 for a few months I tried to sync it to my computer but it said I had to wipe it first, I don't know if it means everything or just the music. Half of my music transferred to my iTunes library and the other half I can get through iCloud so it's the apps and photos I'm worried about. Will they be wiped too? If so, how do I transfer the photos I took before activating photo stream onto my photo stream? I'm going away on vacation tonight so please answer ASAP! Any help appreciated, thank you!!
The iPhone will only sync potentially copyrighted information from one computer, music, movies, and photos (synced to the iPhone from a computer). It will not delete the photos you have taken on the iPhone, which are in the Camera Roll.
To sync everything to your computer, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
See this for help setting up iCloud -> Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
Have fun on your vacation! -
I DONT HAVE STACKS AND I DONT HAVE ANYTHING FOR BACKUP ON TIME MACHINE HOW CAN I FIX THIS
I DONT HAVE STACK ON MY COMPUTER I THINK I ACCIDENTALLY ERASED IT AND EMPTIED THE TRASH AND I DONT NOW HOW TO GET IT BAC AND FOR TIME MACHINE IT DOESNT LET ME BACK UP ALL MY FILES HELPPPPP!!!!!
Please don't SHOUT!
We're all users here and you'll get more help if you give us some coherrent information.
Firstly, do you have an external Hard Drive connected to use for your Time Machine backup?
Secondly "stacks" is not a programme; it's one method of presenting folder icons in the dock, and is accessed from the 'view options' choice which appears if you click on the folder. Right-clicking the folder will go straight to the options menu. -

I sign in to hotmail. I send an e mail. I go to another program. I come back and have to sign in all over again. My other computer doesn't have this problem. It upset my wife. How do I get hotmail to stay on. I never have to sign in to get right into my other MacBook Pro.
Try going to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access. Delete the Hotmail password. While there run Keychain Fist Aid.

Why did I have to sign in 4 times to get into this forum?
I hate apple. I have to sign in 4 times just to use the forum? And the only reason I want to use the forum is because Apple broke my ipod. It was working fine until I tried to run the update. Then it crashed, and wont work until I restore it, which means I lose everything on it. Stupid apple. Your stuff stinks.
Complain here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html or call Apple and ask for Customer Relations.

Is there an app that can read the adresse in calender and use it in a gps app so you dont have to right it 2 times.
If it is a complete address, and is formated properly, it should appear as a link. Tap on it and it will open the Maps App.

Raspberry 2, Windows 10 and Arduino shields, does it work?
