HELP Mz kezboard went crazy

Hi there
Today I discovered that mz keyboard got the keys wrong way around, Like y and z swapped places. also . and , and few other symbols. Anyone else has that problem, can it be fixed easilyć not sure where question mark is. This mad. Thanks explanation mark

Sounds like you might have an international keyboard turned on- you can see if you go into system prefs, International, then have it show keyboard viewer and US (under input menu).
ALso make sure English is at the top of the language list.

HELP MY IPOD WENT CRAZY

Hi i just recently bought a 30gb 5th Gen pod, and have been enjoying it, up until today, when during an update, my computer froze, and it absolutely wiped the ipod clean of all my music!! I had stuff on there that wasn't on my computer, and now i've lost it all. Can anyone tell me why this happened, and whether or not i should be worried that it might happen again?
Oh also since then, it won't let me play the music from my ipod through my computer - is there a way to resolve this too?!
ARGGG this is so frustrating!!

I got a mini a couple of x-mas's ago and in about 6 months its screen went bananas. We restored it several times and tried all sort of the suggestions on the troubleshooting sites, etc., but to no avail. I had to return it. They sent me another last fall, and now this one is actin' a fool, too. I'm doing the 5 R's and all, but no good, and I haven't received any help since I've posted questions on here... I think this model is just funky. I love the software and the convenience of the mini itself, but I think I'm going to have to return this one too, and that's two times too many!

Yesterday, as today's deadline for filing tax returns approached, I was paralyzed by the inability to create new IRS PDF forms and to retrieve archived ones from a year ago. My computer went crazy. 24 hours later, I am still paralyzed. Can you help?

My computer went crazy yesterday on two occasions involving PDF documents. One dealt with attachments to an email from a bona fide corporation. The other dealt with IRS PDF forms & schedules needed for today's submission.
As both dealt with PDF and had nothing else in common, I suspected my PC had a virus. When I asked a local store technician, he agreed. I turned to Norton, which protects my PC from viruses, and after a few hours of really thorough searching, the computer was found to have no viruses.
Before describing what I call "crazy" computer behavior, you need to know that I have long had IE8 as my default browser but a few weeks ago switched to Mozilla Firefox because IE8 had beome incompatible with some websites from which I get information.
When I received the email from AT&T email service and clicked the first of four icons representing attachments, there was figuratively an explosion on my monitor: a series of new tabs, each called New Tab, burst onto the monitor--but no text or picture. The new tabs appeared faster than I coul kill them. I finally decided just to shut down the computer, hoping they would not reappear when I restarted. I was wrong. After 2 repeats, I decided to forget about the attachments and asked the sender to send them to me by regular mail.
That was no solution for my IRS PDFs. I wanted to complete filling in the various forms and schedules that I had begun months ago so that I could mail them today to the IRS (without having to copy them all in ink). When I tried to open the first one, BOOM. The same thing happened: the blizzard of New Tabs atop blank pages; my IRS form or schedule did not show up. Did the same shutdown/restart routine with the same results.
When I looked at the list of current forms that had to be completed, I noticed something very strange: the icons that began the listing of the documents' names were replaced one by one by Mozilla icons. When I moused over them, they said Firefox HTML. Why?
Starting the day today, I had the same experience. What's more, when I started to retrieve 2012 IRS PDFs from a year ago, the same New Tab tabs appeared and had to be killed, and Mozilla icons replaced whatever icon was there before.
Assuming that the problem arose with Adobe Reader's reading of the PDFs, I contacted Adobe but got no helpful phone number because PDFs are a free service and was directed to use this Forum to get help.
What do I have to do to (a) read and use PDFs in the normal way and (b) remove the Mozilla icon from those that have appeared on icon documents. If Mozilla is the source of the problem, shall I go back to IE8? (In my 80s, I want eventually to replace my old computer but for the time being I must continue using it. It will not take an IE9. Anther possible default browser would be Google Chrome, but I have unfavorable impressions of it because of its intrusiveness, loading my PC with stuff I do not need.
Can you help?

The problem is absolutely not Reader. The problem is that FireFox has stepped in front of Reader and handles all the PDF stuff - wrongly in your case. FireFox is DESIGNED to take over PDF files. But it is not capable of doing IRS forms!
To start with go back to IE for these forms. When you save them to disk DO NOT DOUBLE CLICK ON THEM until this is fixed. Just open the in the normal way - start Adobe Reader and use Open from the File menu.

Netbeans 6.1 went crazy after updating

This is driving me crazy (too).
After updating Netbeans 6.1 went crazy and doesnt stop opening itself everytime I close it.
In other words "*Everytime I Exit Netbeans it opens itself again, then I close it and it opens itself again...*"
Anybody can help on that? (I dont know exactly where to ask about this).
Thanks

Just uninstall it, and do a clean install of 6.1

Help iphone 4S went dead, no drop, no water. Docked to pc and came up w/ error that it could not be restored

Help iphone 4S went dead, I did not drop it, docked to PC and error came up that it can't be restored

Hi
I followed this guy's instructions and it worked:
http://evsiphone.blogspot.com/2009/05/iphone-iphone-could-not-be-restored.html
I did disable the security (AVG and Zone Alarm) when I tried on my own PC. My wife's laptop which eventually got it working also uses AVG and Zone Alarm but on an XP O/S whereas my PC is Vista - maybe this is why.
Cheers for you help.

Help me please going crazy, I have my Iphone 4S getting my e-mails from my computer using outlook but when I delete yhem on my computer they stay on my phone, I am syncing via the cloud, Is there a setting that stopps this e-mail from growing on my phone?

For outlook or hotmail emails they use a pop server technology that you can't sync your computer and your iPhone with. You have to unfortunately delete the emails from both devices. It is super frustrating but that is the only way.
Hope this helps.

My mouse went crazy - really it was possessed . . .

anyway, I was looking for something on my harddrive and my mouse was highlighting stuff randomly and it moved stuff from one application to others willy nilly. I think it moved something major because when I went to retreive emails using Entourage, everything was gone and it was asking me if I wanted to run the set up assistant or whatever the thing is called that gets you started.
Here's my question, is there any way that go back and so that my system is restored to before the time my mouse went crazy? Please someone say there is.

Hello aarbelle
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Sorry no one has come to your Aid but not sure what could be the problem accept for a mouse that is dying!
You stated that you cleaned out the lens and that's about all you can do.
Even though you cleaned the lens double check that there is not a hair or small piece of lint stuck between the plastic and blocking the laser.
You might try to take the batteries out let it sit a minute and then put them back in.
And reboot your Mac!

Help! IMovie 11 went crazy on me & stopped working.

So, I've been working on a project on IMovie 11' since November w/ music & clips I downloaded from YouTube. I was more than half way finished with it, it was perfect & all of the sudden, it went nuts on me. The first thing that happened is an entire event folder of video footage greyed out - I assumed it was because I had over 10 hrs worth of clips & it was too full, so I moved some to another folder & it worked - all the clips came back & I could see them in the project.
The next time I opened the program, it was saying "Optimizing Video" & loading something. Then, it wouldn't even let me playback the project, edit or add anything to it. The thumbnails were still in the project & all the clips played within the event folders, showing the orange line indicating what was in the project ... but when I try to playback the project, it's just a grey screen & plays random audio from another one of my video projects.
I even tried exporting the movie & saving it to my computer - when I played it, it was a totally different video project!
None of my other video projects will play either, it only plays the audio & shows the grey screen. ALL the clips play in the event folders, so I don't understand why my projects won't playback.
Anybody have any idea what's going on here? It's really not letting me do anything & I'm really upset because I've worked so hard on this If anybody knows the problem or how I can fix it, I really appreciate the help!
If I have to, I might have to redownload IMovie & start over. I know there is a new version of IMovie, but if I update will I be able to get all my old projects & do you think they will work?
Thanks!

@iphonejunky : Perian was installed by a pref.pane I needed to watch trailer in HD with Front Row on my MacBook.
The installation was automated so I didn't check the version on Perian after installing the pref.pane.
Anyway, i don't use Front Row anymore to watch trailer because I recently bought a Apple TV 2.
FYI, Here is a link to the pref.pane in question
http://blog.jorgesapereira.com/2009/07/27/watch-hd-trailers-from-apple-on-front- row/
@amazingmiki : you're very welcome, always a pleasure to help a guy from the state of House M.D
Another important information : Perian was in "my account/library" because I choose the "only for me" installation but maybe it could be a good idea to check in "/macintosh hd/library/quicktime" in case of "all users on this computer" installation

Screen went crazy, then black - now iBook won't boot up. Help?

So, my iBook has problems. therefore I have problems. I was spoiled and grew up using macs as well as having a computer obsessed father who kept everything running smoothly... unfortunately I never took the opportunity to learn from him. So now I'm lost.
Problem started yesterday, screen went all vertical lines and flickered on and off. Rebooted, got to the login screen, same thing again. Rebooted, chime and grey screen. Reset PRAM, same thing. Started up off install disc, alllllllmost started all the way up... then colored lines, black. Reset PMU, still black, no chime now, just fan/ optical drive noise. Got frustrated, left it alone for a while, tried again and it worked!
THEN this morning in the middle of chatting, colored lines and black. Rebooted, just chime. Reset PMU, rebooted, and it worked!
THEN this afternoon... colored lines/ black. repeated above steps, but no luck. Currently all I get is a black screen and fan noise, no chime.
My iBook was bought July 2005, so it's just over a year old.
I'm not a computer whiz at ALL... but from things I've read in these discussions it sounds like it could be a logic board issue?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated... I'm a broke college student

So, I suppose you've checked the link on the support page
http://www.apple.com/support/ in the lower right where you
can key in the computer's serial number, to see if you have
any AppleCare original coverage left...? The deal there is
with the extended optional policy, you get Support by phone
as well as Service repairs, for a combined period of up to
three years, total; including the first year's coverage.
If it is the matter of a few days, you could spring for the call
to AppleCare (pay per incident, out of warranty) and see if
you can get your issue covered, even though you probably
have lapsed official coverage. Sometimes sales support is
a way to go; other times, if you can get an AppleCare super-
visor; if you can point (hindsight?) to an issue that may have
grown into this current failure, that you were unfamilar with,
that now shows as a probable hardware failure... they may
be able to have the computer checked over anyway.
Out of warranty repairs are often expensive on compact and
portable computers where the parts are very hard to get into.
To get the computer tested and so on would cost you money.
If it cannot be booted from the included Apple Hardware Test
on the included media disc, someone else will have to do it.
Can your parents help you get a refurbished iBook G4 1.33 12"
from the Certified page online? Then, get AppleCare w/ in 11 mo?
These are less expensive machines than the MacBook on budget
and are significant in value as Certified units direct from Apple.
PS: I've owned only a few newer Macs; the total however is a
bit over 100 of them. At one time, I had over 40 in a room and
all of them worked very well; I restored them, & gave them away.

IBook went crazy - please help!

Hey,
I was just downstairs surfing the 'net when all of a sudden my iBook went flooey. The screen went black, and then red, green, white, blue (I'm not sure of the exact order of colors). I tried holding down the power button to force it to restart, but that didn't work. I had to unplug it and take the battery out to get it to stop. When I tried restarting, I got the same funky screens. Oh, and now the fan is going like crazy.
What happened??
I have AppleCare, but I'm still hoping this something I can fix myself with appropriate software. I hate parting with my iBook while it's getting fixed!
Thanks in advance!
ETA: I just realized that the iBook wasn't shut down despite me taking the battery out and putting it back in. So I took it out and the fan has stopped.

Please help! my ipod went crazy!

I have had my ipod mini since july 2005, and it always worked fine, until about 3 months ago I was at the gym and it was working fine, when all of a sudden the text on my screen went all blurry and looked smudged. There was no damage to the actual screen or anything, but after this happened I was unable to use the wheel to scroll anywhere, it was like frozen. I went home and tried to charge it, and that didnt work either.. it wouldn't even charge or anything. I tried to reset it like the online support suggested and that didnt do anything either. After that day I could not even turn my ipod on anymore and the blurry text was not visible? I finally just ordered it to be serviced, but does anyone have any idea what might be the problem? or if anyone else's did that too, can you let me know what was wrong with yours? Mine is still under warranty, but I only had to pay for shipping.handling...but im wondering if they will cover this? although there is no physical damage to it? so I dont see why not? Please anyone let me know Thanks sooo much!!!

Comp went crazy, lost qtime w/apple (have a desktop xp) uninstalled all apple and quicktime, now can't seem to reinstall it. It tells me an older version of apple softwareupdate cannot be removed. contact support. found it but cannot delete it. help

need to know how to uninstall an older version of apple software u pdate v2.1.1.116. uninstall/install program won't let me.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you are running 64-bit Windows and the above steps haven't helped try installing the version of iTunes that can be downloaded from this support document. iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
If you still have no luck try reinstalling iTunes 12.0, links in the user tip.

I need help downloading itunes on two vista 32 bit computers

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.
