In my ipad2, sometimes I beeps in a strange tone and flashes a message

in my ipad2, sometimes I beeps in a strange tone and when I open the ipad, it flashes a one liner message in a message box. the 1st time it showed "I'm yor ghost". the other day it flashed " Hi! I don't care" and after one minute it flashed again "I don't care, do you?"
Is this a software issue or is it normal or is a a virus?

It does sound like "find my ipad" or find phone. I would suggest you reset your ipad and re sync with your PC.

    Thank you...I had selected the incorrect option to create an Apple ID....so backing up a few pages and doing as you stated worked!

  • My iPad2 will sometimes hang when loading an mp4. Gives an error message then attempts to resync which hangs until I unplug the iPad.

    My iPad2 will sometimes hang when loading an mp4. Gives an error message then attempts to resync which hangs until I unplug the iPad.
    I have an iPad 2and have not had any trouble until I up dated my os. I have a pc with win 7.  I do not sync since I have so much music on my computer. I synced my apps during the back up but I had to manually reload my music and videos. Since then I turned off all syncs.
    Since I have to load all my movies on this has been happening. I get through about 4 movies then it will hang up. I eventually get an error message that it cannot load this movie. I then attempts to close out. This seems to hang. When I attempt to eject the iPad it attempts to sync and that never finishes. I pull the plug and that stops the sync but I have to restart the computer before I plug back in the iPad or it will not recognize it or it will attempt to finish the sync which never ends. It sometimes hangs on something with safari and site protection.
    After I restart my computer I can put in 4 or so movies, including the one it hung on before, but it always hangs up again. Any suggestions?

    I am having an almost identical problem and hoped that iOS 6 and the new iTunes would fix it.  Regrettably, I again got 3 movies synced last night before iTunes locked up and gave me the xxxx cannot be synced "because the file cannot be written" message.  Same deal with iTunes hanging on "finishing sync" after that and me having to remove the iPad from the cable to get things to come back to life on the PC (Win 7 64 bit).
    I've also done a factory restore followed by a restore from backup and have the same problem.

  • MacBook  Pro screen glitches out, gray lines appear on it then my computer freezes and must be restarted sometimes it will beep 3 times when restarting and other times it won't. Is this a virus?

    I have a MacBook Pro running mavericks. Sometimes the screen glitches out, gray lines appear on it then my computer freezes and must be restarted sometimes it will beep 3 times when restarting and other times it won't. Is this a virus, software issue, water damage, etc? An error message usually appears after being restarted. It does it all the time please help.

    No Virus. You have a Hardware Problem. 3 Beeps means a RAM problem. You could try Reseating the RAM is its sockets.
    But that wouldn't necessarily cause the screen to Glitch Out, as you say.

  • Macbook pro shuts down randomly (sometimes it beeps)

    My computer has been having issues randomly freezing and then shutting down. Sometimes it beeps 3 times and then repeats those beeps until I force it to shut down. I took it to an apple authorized dealer and they found that my hardrive was failing, but not any other problems. After I got it back I download the OS X mavericks upgrade (This computer is an early 2011, 15" macbook pro, unibody).
    From searching it seems from the beeping that it is a RAM issue. I have tried reseating the RAM and using only one card at a time. After a few days it continues to its hold habits.
    It works best when it is on a solid table top and it is not moving. When I move it, sometimes with even the most gentle touch, it continues these issues.
    I ran an apple hardware test and it did not detect any issues, however the problem still prosits.

    Hey! I tried re-installing the OS but it didn't fix it. I called Apple Support and they sent me an OS update and that didn't work either. I went to a friend who knows a lot about computers, and he suggested that it could be a problem with the RAM memory. He downloaded memtest for me (http://www.memtest.org/), ran it and indeed, the test caught some problems with at least one of the memories. I then took it to the Genius Bar in the Apple Store to get it fixed. They had to take it away, though, because they need to run some more thorough tests to see what exactly is wrong with it, since changing the memory might not solve the problem. I'm waiting for them to return my computer, so until then I won't be able to tell you if this worked. It seems too much of a coincidence that this happened right after I upgraded to Mountain Lion (especially if other people are also having this issue after an upgrade...). Good luck!

  • I want to buy a iPad2 to go along with my mac desktop and iPhone, do I have to purchase the same apps. to put on my iPad

    i want to buy a iPad2 to go along with my mac desktop and iPhone, do I have to repurchase the same apps. to put on my iPad?

    You can use most of the apps that you bought for your iPhone on the iPad as well. Sometimes the apps are not optimized for the iPad's larger display. Sometimes the apps are limited to the iPhone and you must purchase a separate iPad version. As with your iPhone, Mac apps cannot be used on an iOS device.

    Problems with iTunes/ipad2  I'm trying to buy FREE apps and I'm being told my card is declined but I also have more then enough credit on my account! Anyone having this problem?

    Part of the validation for credit cards is that they need to be registered to exactly the same name and address that you have on your iTunes account, which prepaid cards tend not to be. Do you have a proper credit card that you could use ? Or are iTunes gift cards available in your country so that you could try using them as your payment method ?
    Until you have a valid payment method on your account and what you owe iTunes has been paid off then you won't be able to download any item from the store, including free apps (and updates to apps).

    How to restart base station from airport utility? I used to be able to do it remotely
    I currently use a Mac Pro 10.8.4 and have a time machine for wireless 6.3 (630.34). Sometimes I cannot connect to the internet and use network preferences to diagnose the issue. This results in being told to restart the wireless. The airport utility includes the drop down option of restarting but is not clickable so I can't choose it.
    With my prior macbook and same time capsule, etc  if i had problems connecting to the internet I would run network diagnostics to help out. This included clicking on the airport utility ---> base station --> restart. This worked most of the time.
    Bottom line, is there something I am missing in not being able to restart the wi-fi remotely? ]
    Thanks in advance

    You are likely forgetting a step.
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon
    Click Edit in the small window that appears
    Now click the Base Station menu.....top of the screen....not the Base Station "tab" in the center of the screen
    Click Restart

    Hi,
    my macbook screen goes black at random points when I am using it. I know it is still running as music continues to play and I can vaguely make out the content of what is on the screen. Sometimes the screen will flicker between black and normal. Can I fix this?

    Emily..
    Could be the graphics card, run the Apple Hardware Test
    If the hardware test doesn't reveal any problems, use Lion Recovery.

  • What is an alternative to bins? Sometimes I want to make custom transitions and I need a place to store them for easy use.

    What is an alternative to bins? Sometimes I want to make custom transitions and I need a place to store them for easy use.

    Either projects or events. You can make a compound clip in a event used to hold favorites. Add a couple of generator items to it and apply the custom transition. You can copy and paste from the compound clip to any project. Hold everything you want into the one event. It probably won't ever get very big, and the render files can be dumped at any time. You can simply move the event from machine to machine or place to place as needed, just as you can other custom content, like keyboard layouts and custom color presets.

  • Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name.

    Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name. Hard to know who is calling/texting! A few times I've tapped on the text message icon and I can actually watch as the conversations turn from showing just numbers to the contact names. Same thing when looking at call history and voice mail- sometimes it shows numbers and then I'll go back and the contacts will be back. So frustrating!

    You don't dial *228 to update the Preferred Roaming List on 4G phones; I"m surprised the call went through.  The PRL updates are handled by the SIM card. 
    Try this and see if it helps:  turn off the phone, remove the SIM card, and wait a few minutes.  Then re-insert the SIM card, turn the phone back on, and give the phone a few minutes to re-establish a network connection.
