HELP! My screen is going CRAZY~!

Okay, I run my mbp a rediculously long time for work and school. Recently it has been having these suddon screen seizures. The screen will start looking like an 8bit bad nintendo game on acid? It covers the whole screen except the bottom little bid. I can still see what is behind it but bearly. I just turn it off and back on and it works find..
but the last day or so, especially last night, I could not keep it from doing this, every 5 mins or so. I found out that I can just exit the program and move stuff around to get rid of it? Like i have to move stuff and 'erase' it.
Maybe the program I am running is way too hot? or messing with the graphic card? Not sure. I just downloaded something this morning for the fans to run cooler. Hopefully this will help the probelm.
If not, WHAT DO I DO??!?! Please help

You call Apple and explain the problem to them, it sounds like a graphics chip or Motherboard problem sadly.

My iPhone 4S screen is going crazy

I bought my iPhone 4S 3 months ago. Since last week, after going under the airport X-rays, the screen is going crazy, either it freezes, or opens things randomly, or doesn't work on parts of the surface.
The problem is that I bought it sim-lock free in Madrid's Apple store, but now I live in Tunisia. The only support here is provided by the carrier (Orange Tunisie) is for the iPhones sold by them. I don't know what to do. I thought the warranty was a global one for the sim-lock free ones.
PLEASE HELP!

HT5262 my ipad mini screen is going crazy

My ipad mini screen has started going crazy. It's zooms in and out, changes pages and moves all by itself.

Hi just4dana,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPad mini is behaving unexpectedly, I recommend restarting or resetting it:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article with these steps here:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If you are still experiencing the same issue, I recommend resetting all settings next:
Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose Reset All Settings: All your preferences and settings are reset.

Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
And fyi, deleting iTunes from the computer does not cause you to lose the songs. The iTunes music folder remains unaffected.

Toshiba Satellite R15 - Help! Pen calibration goes crazy after hibernating and resuming the PC.

I have a Toshiba Satellite R15 laptop that I got off of ebay. This laptop is the kind with a flip-around screen so that you can use it in pen/tablet/stylus mode. When I got it, I installed a fresh copy of Windows XP SP3 on it, and installed all the necessary drivers from the Toshiba web site. Also I made sure to get the latest Wacom pen driver from the Wacom web site. Also, I got all the windows updates.
I can normally calibrate the display and the pen just fine using the Wacom tool in the windows control panel. I have the computer configured so that, when I flip the screen into tablet mode, the screen goes into a portrait-aspect configuration (tall instead of wide). This works fine and I can also calibrate the screen fine in this mode.
But if I hibernate and resume the machine (in "tablet" mode with the screen flipped around), after resume, everything has gone wonky with the pen. First of all, the pen moves as if the machine were in landscape mode still: An X motion of the pen produces a Y motion of the cursor, for example. If, then, I flip the screen back to regular-laptop mode, the X/Y direction is correct again, but, the calibration is way off, the cursor is two inches to the right of the pen. If I try to calibrate again when it's in this state, the pen is still off by two inches.
I did a google search, but, the only results I see are for people encountering this problem under Linux. I don't see any solutions for Windows XP users.
I emailed Wacom and they said to ask Toshiba. I can't email toshiba (no support email in their contact page), so I'm asking here. Can anyone help?

I ended up fixing this, by formatting the computer from scratch and installing Windows 7 instead of Windows XP. :-)
This works but there is a limitation: There are no updated Win7 video drivers from Intel for the Toshiba Sattellite R15. So you have to hack the XP drivers to work. Here are the instructions on how to hack the XP drivers to work on the Toshiba Satellite R15 running Windows 7:

But after that, everything is fine on the tablet.

Please help guys, i'm going crazy!

Hello everyone, i hope someone out there can help me cos i'm tearing my hair out!
Ok, so i've had my 80gb video ipod for less than a month and a few days ago when i went to update it, it said there was a corrupted file and i may have to restore it. which i did. Then, when it was loading back up again, the hold function on the ipod seems to have stopped working. The furthest i've got is the screen shows a list of languages to choose from, 'English' being at the top, but i can't select any because the hold function won't turn off!!!
I doubt that i've broken it in any way, i'm really careful with it
Any takers?! I would love someone forever if they knew the answer to this riddle!

David, thanks for setting that up! It's just kills me why Apple wont just give us the ability to go fullscreen and make it easy for us!
Your samples did work on the Mac, but completely bombed on the PC in IE and Firefox. I visited the apple site and found some QT movies that opened the QT player and went fullscreen, but they didn't always work on the PC. The problem with using the QT player outside of the HTML is I have several clips so I need some sort of navigation. Also, the fact that launching the player doesn't always work for everyone is a bigger problem for me.
I was originally using JW Flash Player and it was wonderful, but the CPU usage was HUGE when compared to QT. My movies are 960/540 and around 80 megs, it was using 120-150% of my CPU (each core is 100%). Fullscreen was great with FLASH, but the movies didn't play for users that had older hardware (1 cpu)
Any ideas on how I can still work with QT, can I pay someone money? LOL.

Ipad air screen starts going crazy

My iPad Air which is only 10 months old will, more often now, start flashing the screen and moving from one app to another or just start typing weird characters. I can be reading a book or in Safari or just reading mail and this might start. Even is sitting reading while not touching anything it might start and is totally random. I've tried resetting as has been suggested elsewhere but that made no difference. Some times it is fine for days and then might start. It is very frustrating especially when reading a book and it just starts flipping pages. Any help would be welcome.

Thanks Jim but somehow I don't think it's the screen as I can sometimes just turn the iPad on and it might start acting up. It's actually only been doing this since the last iOS update so I'll see what happens after the next update. I've logged a service call with Apple so maybe they'll have a suggestion.

New T410 - Screen contrast goes crazy on battery!

I got my T410 at the end of January. I noticed that when I am on batter power...the screen will suddenly, and without any apparent reason, get all washed out...the colors are all skewed and the contrast is non-existent. It will stay this way for 10-20 seconds, then slowely regenerate to normal...taking about another 30 seconds.
This is not something I need happening during client presentations. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Help! I'm going crazy with the Export function!

I've spent all day googling and trying different methods but I keep having issue with the Export to Movie function in CS3. I have a short 2-minute long movie made of several video clips, cross dissolve transitions, and an mp3 for background music. Everytime I try to export it through File/Export/Movie, it fails with the "Error compiling video...". This happens to many formats available (Microsoft AVI, Microsoft DV AVI, Quicktime, etc.). The weird thing is that I was able to export it through Adobe Media Encoder. I tried several file formats this way sucessfully with the same project. I uninstalled and reinstalled a few times and it's doing the same thing. I'd really appreciate any advice to help me solve this problem.

Please provide
these details to help us help you.
Cheers

HELP! I'm going crazy trying to organize my music into folders!

I am managing my own music which I need to do.
I've now got thousands of playlists, each usually an album or artist name. For example I've got over 33 Madonna albums. Just my "A's" to get through on the playlist require my thumb to go around the wheel dozens of times.
I need to have folders, I would like to name them "A" and have all my playlists that start with A under them. I'm thinking "M" followed by a subfolder "Madonna" followed by a playlist with a playlist for each Madonna album.
It is not letting me do any of this. I can make a folder but then it won't let me drag it to my ipod. I create a folder and try to drag a playlist into it and it won't let me. I can't deal with this much music anymore. There has to be a way to use folders for this.

It's not difficult to use but if you are used to doing it a differnt way, it may be confusing.
You're gonna have to try to not apply what you used to do.
In iTunes, go to menu Edit - Show browser.
This will show a list of Genres, Artists and Albums.
Click on any of these to view just that info.
Same on the iPod.
Go to Music -> Artists -> Albums
or Music -> Genre -> Artist
or Music Albums
or Music -> Playists.
Yes, you can create folders in iTunes under playlists. This will help keep your playlists a bit organized.
I have two folders, one for my playlists and one for my daughters playlists.
However, these folder do not get transfered over to the iPod. Only the playlists get transfered.
To get Artist>Album>Playlist, on the iPod, use Music -> Artist -> Album and press Play.
In iTunes select the artist and the album and press play.
You don't need a playlist for an artist or album.
To play all songs by an artist (or Genre) , simply select the artist and press Play
iTunes and the iPod are not as friendly for classical music. Many people edit the ID3 tags to exchange the Composer and Artist fields. This way everything from Strauss will be shown under Strauss instead of the 27 different orchestras who recorded Strauss.
Here's a good place to start -> iPod 101 - Master Your Music and More
It explains the basics of iTunes and the iPod.

EMU 1820m install problem please help me I'm going crazy

I've brought the EMU 1820m two days ago and for two days now I've been looking everywhere for an answer.
So I plugged the card in the computer, I turn the power on and... Windows doesn't detect the card. I look on the net and apparently it's because I have to delete the previous sound card in the bios and desinstall them. OK. I do it.
I reboot again and again and windows still doen't recognize it. Nothing. It's plugged but windows doesn't see anything.I look on the net for various solutions: trying a different PCI slot, changing where it's plugged to the power supply, nothing...
I was so excited to buy this card and now the disappointment is even greater...... Can anybody help me???

Windows doesn't detect anything... It's not listed in the device manager... I will try to find another computer to see if it works...
By the way, the power supply cable has three plugs, one for the card, one for the power supply and one for the hard drive (if you don't have any cable left on the power supply)... Where do I plug it on the hard drive? I'm trying everything, I'm desesperate....

NEED HELP OR I AM GOING CRAZY

I BOUGHT A VERIZON PREPAID SAMSUNG GALAXY LEGEND SCH-I200PP FROM WALMART AND ALSO PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. NOW I CANNOT GET MY PHONE TO CHARGE, SO I STARTED A CLAIM AND THE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME TO REMOVE THE SIM CARD FROM THE PHONE BEFORE BOXING UP TO SHIP WITH THE UPS LABEL THEY PROVIDED. ONCE THE LABEL IS SCANNED AT UPS, MY ACCOUNT WITH WALMART WILL BE CREDITED TO PURCHASE A NEW PHONE....... THAT IS ALL GREAT, BUT WHERE IN THE WORLD IS THE CARD???? I AM SOMEWHAT TECHIE, BUT SOMEONE HELP ME BEFORE I PULL MY HAIR OUT......

I can't speak with 100% certainty, but I was under the impression that is long as your service is active, you'll be able to active another prepaid phone and keep your number. I thought the only time you lose your number on prepaid is when you fail to make a payment before the expiration date.
Your phones unique ESN/IMEI number is what gets tied to your account - so I imagine its just a matter of swapping out the old and putting in the new.

Help with motherboard installation-going crazy

Firstly I wouold like to give thanks to a forum as this.
The Problem:
I Just bought a new motherboard, MSI PM8M3-V, it seemed as if it was pretty straight forward in it's installation; but best laid plains. Being new to this forum, I'm not to sure if I am even in the right place to be stating my problem; that being: No Posting (no beeps when powering up).
I don't know what info you may need to ID my system, but I will start with the basics:
Motherboard: MSI PM8M3-V, VIA P4M800ce + VT8237R, FSB @ 800/533mhz, supports DDR SDRAM memory (33/400mhz)
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 541 3.20Ghz, 1MB cache, 800 FSB, socket 755
Power Supply: 350W (ATX 2.03(P4)).
memory stick: 512Mb, 400Mhz
Now I do have some knowledge of computer hardware, but I have no clue as to where to start looking to repair the problem. That problem being at the moment, getting no beeps when powering up my system. If someone could tell me what I should be expecting if I have a good installation of my board, why I'm not getting any beeps; or should I be getting any beeps? I think I have everything plugged in as it's stated in the user's guide, but still no beeps. I even powered up the board outside of the case, still nothing. The last thing I tried was removing the memory stick, but still no beeps. What's Missings?
DRK

Hey Guys, hope you are having a better weekend than I am; this darn computer . The test with the PSU did not go well, still no beeps or posting or even drive LEDs. The PSU that I was testing which I took from another system that is running the same type board (PM8PM-V - the board looks almost exactly the same, with the exception of being duo-core and higher FSB). Here's the PSU specs:
model: WIN - 400PS
Input: 115V/230V, 7.5A/4A, 60-50Hz
Output: +5V & +3.3V & 12V combined: 380W
Total output: 400W
3.3V - 15A
5V - 30A
12V = 15A
-5V - 0.6A
-12V - 0.6A
+5VSB - 2A
Ps-ON - Remote
POL - P.G.
Com - Return
Again this PSU is running another system, with a simular Motherboard; so as usual I'm still in the dark. Would you guys recommend me returning this motherboard for the PM8PM-V or one of simular type (I'm not looking for super-duper power, just want to play some great games, sound/video files and ofc files). But I rather figure out what's wrong with this board or set-up; so what do I do next?

While charging 6 plus if I hold the screen it starts going crazy! Am I the only one this happens to?

While charging IPhone 6 plus, the screen starts going crazy! As if I was clicking all over the screen! Just looking to see if im the only person this is happening to!

That is not usual
Reset the device - no data loss incurred
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Also try a different charger and a different electrical outlet for good measure
If it is still happening - then you may be looking at taking the device to an Apple store or authorized repair store
