I am having problems with my optical corded mouse that came with my iMac (it's about 2 years old) It stops working periodically, and I can't figure out how to fix it; doesn't look like I can open it to clean it, or anything like that.

My corded optical mouse (model A 1152),which came with my desktop iMac, stops working periodically. The little tracball may work scrolling down a page, but not up, sometimes, and I have yet to figure out how to fix it, or why it happens at all. Is there someone who has had that problem, and what did you do?

Hello:
Turn the mouse upside down and run it (vigorously) over a piece of paper. Better yet, run it over a microfiber cloth.

One day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry. If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

i installed ios 7.after that my primary cam, one day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry. If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

This advice will sound like a joke or prank, but believe me it worked on my iPhone 5 and my daughter's. The lens mechanism got stock on each of our iPhones. We found a post on these message boards that said to hold the iPhone about 6 inches above a table or counter top and drop it so that it lands flat on it's back. Now try the camera ...Fixed! It has been more than six months now and neither of our iPhones have ever experienced the problem again.

This is most often due to faulty battery. Apple Genius can perform a quick several minute battery diagnostic test. Make Genius Reservation.

Has anybody figured out how to fix the battery consumption with mountain lion (using a MBP 13")?

I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and yes despite all of the warnings posted in the App Store reviews about the battery life being cut in half, I upgraded my MBP anyway. Chalk this one up to the Black Cloud of "I Told You SO!" My MBP could hold a charge for almost 6.5 hours. Now I'm luck if I can get 3, but in most cases I may get 2.5 hours if I'm conservative.
Has anyone figure out how to fix this battery problem? Even now after having it unplugged for almost 2 hours...I'm getting the "You are now running on reserve battery power" message. What a freaking joke!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Open /Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor. Click %CPU until the triangle points down beside it. Make sure it says All Processes in the upper right. Check for applications taking up lots of CPU time.

So iCal won't sync now as I've had to change my gmail password. Anyone figured out how to fix this?

Yes, I go to Settings>Mail>Gmail. I've deleted the old Gmail account and added it back with the new password. I've also deleted the account, shut down the iPad and iPhone and then re-add the Gmail account with the new password and it still doesn't work for either device. The error messages I get are:
For the iPad: Cannot Connect Using SSL
For the iPhone: The user name or password for "imap.gmail.com" is incorrect.

My ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

my ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

Hey Silverdemon, sounds like a short, most likely in the headphones. Try a different set of headphones with this iPod or try the headphones with a different device. If the problem stops with your iPod or it moves to another device, then replace the headphones. If within 1 year of date of purchase Apple will replace the headphones for free if problem is a defect, not abuse. If the problem continues with a different set of headphones, check the port for damage and foreign debris. If you note debris, attempt to remove it, if damage noted contact Apple and set up an appointment to have it evaluated. if nothing appears wrong, try plugging / unplugging to jack about 12 times maybe corrosion on the contacts if so that should clean it. Next thing to try reset your iPod. After that try restore from backup. Last resort, restore to new. Just make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you restore so no data is lost. If nothing works, contact Apple and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

HT4623 I need to know if anyone knows what is wrong with my iphone? It is "Magnified" and I cannot figure out how to fix it.

Since upgrading to mavericks, my email autofill is incorrect and I can't figure out how to fix it.

Since upgrading to mavericks, my email autofill in Safari is incorrect and I can't figure out how to change it. I start typing my email [email protected] on a website and that I need to put my email in (like to request a newsletter etc). As soon as I get to the @ it fills it in as [email protected]@. It is baffling and frustrating. Any ideas? Autofill in general, for all my info (adress etc) works fine.

Cant figure out how to fix my labtop, Acer Windows 8

Hello,
Something was uninstalled on my labtop (acer, windows 8), it was something that had to do with office. So now when I try to open any files made in word, excel, powerpoint, ect. They wont open.
This is what I have tried and gotten no luck:
1) I tried reinstalling Office Mircrosoft Professional Plus 2013 (This is want I installed when I first got the laptop). When I put in the disk it asks me if I want to run it, when I click on YES, another message pops up saying: Something went wrong,
sorry we ran into a problem, try going online for additional help. (Which hasn't been helpful).
2) I tried doing a System Restore, but it ran through the restore and didn't change anything. I tried doing it again, but it now wont even let me do a restore. So I tried the Advance System Recovery, but it wont run also.
3) I then went into the Run System File Checker tool to troubleshoot the issue. A list of all the programs (expect for office) popped up and the only problem it
came up with was that the Blue Tooth Audio Device has a driver problem and needs to be reinstalled. But I don't know how to do that. And I'm not sure what I'm even looking for in the list of programs for the troubleshooting.
Also, other issues I'm having is that its telling me I cant change things unless I'm the admin, but I am and I don't have any other user accounts set up. It also tells me I have things open in other accounts and so I cant make
changes to whatever it is at the moment I'm trying to change. I've been trying to change a few things not know really what I'm doing.
Any advice or steps to take to figure out how to get my labtop working like normal?
If the issue still exists, run System File Checker tool to troubleshoot the issue:
1.
Insert the Windows 7 installation DVD into the DVD-ROM; Click Exit if the auto-menu pops up.
2.
Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow.
3.
At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER

Do you mean in your from field or the signature field?
where does it show up...? it wouldn't be on the iPhone as that doesn't show a from field. Check the account details in MM open it up go to settings and check you typed it in right simple as that if it's on someone elses hardware when they recieve an email from you then they need to fix your name in their contacts.

Figuring out how to fix a Binary Download Fail error message

Hi, Every time I turn on my Gateway desktop computer I get an error message in the bottom right corner of the monitor: "Binary Download Fail. Please try again." Nothing happens when I click on the box and it doesn't offer any further information
or explanation. I can only close the little window. Is this something I have to worry about? I want it to stop but can't figure out how to do some diagnostics to fix the problem or make it go away. Really could use some help here. Thank you to anyone who can
assist me!

I'm having problems with error message 404...so I thought I'd uninstall Firefox and try installing again, but it won't let me uninstall, ANY SUGGESTIONS????

WHEN I CLICK ON MY FIREFOX ICON....I GET THIS LITTLE 1"X 1" BOX THAT LOOKS LIKE IT'S BRINGING UP THE PAGE, BUT IT DOESN'T GET ANY BIGGER THAN THAT LITTLE 1" BOX............HELP

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
