No, it's not normal.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
Frankly though, considering it's new, take it back to Apple.

sorry Q is in the tittle having big issues with my screen so its hard to use
Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays
Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Universal Access
are both places where screen size may change inadvertantly. Use higher resolutions, but lower screen zoom. -
I have an eight (8) GB iPhone 3G, but when on iTunes on my Mac, it says my phone only has 6.9 GB of space total. I just want to know why this is, and if I am able to get a new phone because of malfunction. Thanks!
You don't have a malfunction. Read this: How Mac OS X and iOS report storage capacity, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2419

i have seen many other threads about this, but i just want to know if anyone has found a fix that actually works? or do i just need to wait for apple to send a fix in their next update?
Suppose you elaborate on what you are doing with the MBP that makes the battery life terrible.

i dropped my macbook pro off my couch and when it landed it was shut, i opened it and it was on a grey sceen so i shut it down with the button and when i turned it back on it was kind of slow but not so much anymore. i quit all of my applications before i shut down and i noticed that when there are no more things t quit and i click "hide finder" its not grey anymore it still gives me the option to hide it when i dont need to, little things bug me and i just got this laptop, i just want to know if i should be worried
I suggest you immediately make a backup of your data. You don't know if or when the computer will show some symptoms from the drop. You may want to, for piece of mind, take the computer to an authorised service center for assessment. No one here can assess any internal damage you may have done.

In the last 2 days my Macbook has twice turned itself off just out of nowhere - not even any noise, then when i get it back on it's reset to midnight Jan 2008? It also stops charging as well, the plug in just turns dead, no lights, no charge. Even if i unplug it, plug it back in etc. The time eventually resets itself but that's not the point - is anyone else having these problems?? Dodgy update somewhere maybe? help!!!!
P.S. when it plugs into the computer, it doesn't always Sync- it thinks it's unplugged too fast for itunes to recognize it.
The phone also crashes ALL the time (even with the application for the phone settings- I have only basic apps). My itunes crashes a lot too, but I've re-installed and all that- I think the phone is crashing it. -
Just got on my Ipad and it says it has not been backed up for 4 weeks. It will not let me turn it off, unlock it, and when I press OK it does nothing.
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Please help. My daughter has updated her iPad with iOS 6.1.3 and it now keeps crashing after a few seconds use..we have tried a rest and this doesn't help. Thx

[Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off]
1. Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
2. Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
3. Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
4. After at least 15 minutes, if:
-The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
-The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
-Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
5. If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
-If the display turns on, go to step 4.
-If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service. -
iphone turned off and went to apple screen, once turned back on all my SMS's had been removed..
is this able to be restored at all?dijana wrote:
=/ not impressed with Apple or iPhone 4's at all..
Why?
Apple provides a very simple way to sync and backup the device, simply connect it to iTunes.
In this case, you chose not to do that.
There is nothing that Apple or any other company can do to "force" lazy/ignorant customers to back up their devices regularly.
You would be in the same position if you device had a hardware failure, was lost or stolen.
While it does not resolve the issue, it could have been easily avoided by regularly syncing and backing up the device.
Also, as deggie stated, RSVP by text is not a very smart idea. No carrier guarantees delivery of SMS messages, they are considered extremely low priority. -
Just want to know it this small code is right
Hello everyone, im back :P
well, i've been doing exercises, but i don't have the solution yet...so could you tell me if this code is right? thanks.
About the constructors etc..i think its right, but i not sure about the last method ( distanceFromTwoPoints() )
If i'd like to test this class, i would ask for 4 coord. (x1,y1) and (x2, y2)..
And solved the distance between those two points..well
I don't understand..
On that code how can i calculate the distance from two points if i just have x1 and y1, i mean ...when i wrote that boolean method ( if the two points are equal) the the "p" variable reference is pointing to x1 and y1 , right? maybe that boolean method is wrong too, cuz i want to compare (x1, y1 ) with (x2, y2) well....when i wrote :
this.x1 == p.x1 etc both are references to x1 and y1, so returns always true.
Do i need to write a setMethod to change the values ?
Is that code comparing two points? thats all i want to know...if yes, so how can i test it?
public class Point {
private double x1;
private double y1;
public Point(final double x1, final double y1){
this.x1 = x1;
this.y1 = y1;
public double getX1() {
return x1;
public double getY2() {
return y1;
public boolean isEqual(final Point p){
return (this.x1 == p.x1 && this.y1 == p.y1);
public double distanceFrom2Points (int x1, int y2, Point p){
return Math.sqrt((this.x1 - p.x1)*(this.x1 - p.x1) + (this.y1 - p.y1)*(this.y1 - p.y1));
I think this code is just working with two coord. x1 and y1 :S where do i put x2 and y2?
"p" is a reference to the x1 and y1 variables, so where are the x2 and y2?
im confused :P
thankspublic class Point {
private double x;
private double y;
public Point(final double x, final double y){
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
public double getX() {
return x;
public double getY() {
return y;
public boolean isEqual(final Point p){
return (this.x == p.x && this.y == p.y);
public double distanceFrom2Points ( Point p){
return Math.sqrt((this.x - p.x) * (this.x - p.x) + (this.y - p.y) * (this.y - p.y));
public class TestingPoint {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.print("X1: ");
double x1 = Teclado.doubleLido();
System.out.print("Y1: ");
double y1 = Teclado.doubleLido();
//Teclad.intLido() reads from the console, something like:
//Keyboard.intRead(); we use that.
System.out.print("X2: ");
double x2 = Teclado.doubleLido();
System.out.print("Y2: ");
double y2 = Teclado.doubleLido();
Point p1 = new Point(x1, y1);
Point p2 = new Point(x2, y2);
double distance = p2.distanceFrom2Points(p1.distanceFrom2Points
(x1,x2));
System.out.println("The distance is "+distance);
}the compilation ERROR says: The method distanceFrom2Points(Point) in the type Point is not applicable for the arguments (double, double)
these are the two classes.
What is wrong ?
thanks! -

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
Cheers, Tom
