My iPad is acting like it is possessed. It opens apps, closes them, switches to others without anyone touching it.

Can not control, iPad. Even types on it's own

Hello, i have the same problem.
I take ipad2 to the apple "genius" bar, they did re-install the iOs, even i told them that i already did, they insist that its a software problem.
Anyway, they told me to come back if it happens again, and after a week it starts to happen again.
a Ghost was using my Ipad, it was possessed again.
This time apple "genius" says ok its a hardware problem, and because my device is out of warranty they offer me to switch with a new one for 299$.
This is clearly apple's fault, not mine, and they need to atleast offer a service where they try to fix it. THREE HUNDERED DOLARS for a new one? thank you very much.
Anyway, i am still waiting, i bought this from US, now i am in turkey, the genius that i was talking above is in US, NewYork City.
I do not expect anything, i just want to write here to let people know that this is not ok to just ignore a faulty device even it is out of warranty and Apple doesnt care for customers.
BTW new tablets that not apple are good too, maybe i will give them a try with 299$ that apple ask me..
Cheers,

Look, if you don't define what's wrong (posessed and crazy are not technical terms), then we can't help you.
You need to clearly define the problem, what you've done to troubleshoot, and what happens when you try.
If you can't do that, then just find an Apple Store and take it in so someone can actually see it in action. We are not psychic.

Firefox running weird !! Whenever I click on something like bookmarks, it acts like it is going to open, blinks real fast, and then doesn't open.

Yes, you should get an email if somebody replies to a thread you started or one to which you posted. I did; that's how I knew you had replied. Check up at the top of the right column of this thread. In the "Actions" box you should find "Stop email notifications" if you are subscribed to this thread.
One step you didn't list among HP's suggestions is a compound action: delete the app, reset the iPad (by holding down the home and start buttons together for ten seconds), then reinstall the app and test it. If it still falls over, I would say the HP app has not kept up with iOS changes and needs updating -- OR your iPad has developed some persistent internal corruption in its photo storage that only the HP app trips over (in which case, the app still needs updating, but it's going to be much harder for HP to determine how).

My ipad 2 is really slow and it wont open app store or safari

my ipad 2 is really slow and it wont open app store or safari but i dont understand why?

Or a reset of the iPad?
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

HT1551 1st Gen Apple TV - Remote worked fine yesterday and today acts like it is unpaired. Is it possible to pair it again without a working remote?

My 1st Gen Apple TV remote worked fine yesterday and today acts like it is unpaired (amber flash when I hit a button). Is there a way to pair it or another remote now?
Thanks.

A 5 GHz network cannot reach as far as a 2.4 GHz one, nor is it able to penetrate walls and the like anywhere near as well, it is not therefor always an ideal solution. It can help avoid interference from neighbouring networks but it may not avoid interference from other household appliances. You might want to try another wifi channel or even temporarily move the Apple TV closer to the AP for diagnostics.

HT201413 iTunes acts like I haven't reviewed an app.

I have reviewed several apps yesterday and today. Once I write a review and click submit and leave the specific app page, the info I just entered disappears when I return to that app page. It acts like I haven't entered any info into the boxes. Does anyone have idea what is going on?

Was it purchased by that account, and is it still available in the store ? If it's been withdrawn from the store then you won't be able to re-download it

Firefox keeps acting like it crashed everytime I open it.

Every time I start my computer & open Firefox, instead of pulling up my home page, it acts as if it just crashed and brings up the page that shows it crashed/is trying to re-open my previously opened tabs. (Page displays: "Well, this is embarrassing. Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page." Then it lists all the tabs I had opened the last time I had my computer on). I have deleted Firefox & downloaded a previous version, and that corrected the problem for a few days. Now the same problem is back. How do I fix this?

A possible cause is that you are first closing all Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.
Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them.
If this still doesn't work properly then you can consider to disable crash recovery, but note that you will lose open tabs in case a real crash occurs.

HT4623 I am new to a smart phone, I have I phone 5. It said it needed to update, so I let it. Now I cannot turn off the open apps to save power. I click twice quickly like before and it shows open apps, but when I hold the app, it goes to control board

New to here. As said above I updated to 7.02 because I thought I had too. I double click and it shows open apps. I hold one like before and it goes to control board and I have no idea how to close the apps or how to set up that board. I rarely use my phone. I wish I had not updated.

Thanks, it worked, however you cannot do them all at once any more, only one at a time.

My iPad 2 acts like I am touching all over the screen when I am not.

On the plane ride the other day I was using iBooks, and my iPad started scrolling through the pages like crazy (even when I was not touching the screen).
Now, it will just start performing actions (clicking, swiping, multi touch, zoom, etc) even when I am not touching the screen at all. For instance, when I am in mail, it will all of a sudden bring up the reply menu, change emails, close the app, scroll, etc and it is just going crazy.
I don't know what to do to fix it, but I am 3+ hours from the nearest apple store.
Any suggestions? Is anyone else having this problem?

I'm having the exact same issue now. What did you end up doing?
I restored the thing but didn't work. It keeps doing it. It does it for so long time I even took a video of it to show at the store: http://youtu.be/BqGCyEQU-mY
Good luck!

My ipad keeps acting like im doing something when im not

what do i do? it keeps selecting things or if im playing a game it will make moves i am not doing and it does them over and over.

First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If this doesn't help I suggest making an appointment at an Apple Store for a consultation.

Won't open "pages" on certain websites, however, it acts like it wants to, even opens a "tab" for it and all I get is a white screen?

After about 5 minutes, it usually tells me that the scripts on the page aren't running or something like that. I can always get onto the homepage of whatever site I'm having problems with, but any other page within that site is a no go. My java script is on so not sure what else to check. I like the idea of using FF instead of Windows, but if this persists I'll have to go back. I need to be able to get info from certain sites for work related stuff.

I am having this problem with TONS of blogs... it is so frustrating. They all open just fine in IE. I prefer Firefox but I might have to switch to a different browser if this keeps up.

I have an HP laptop preloaded with Adobe Premiere Elements 10. For whatever reason Elements will "run" on click, but not even open the load screen or anything and then act like I never tried to open it? whats going on?

I bought my HP laptop in 2012, and it came preloaded with Adobe Premiere and Photoshop Elements 10
It worked fine and I even made a few video edits back in 2012 but for the last year Elements just REFUSES to work properly
I used to be able to open elements to at least the "what do you want to do?" screen
But now It won't even open this...I have no idea why...
If I double click the Elements application my computer slows down, bracing itself to load, and then ....thats it....it reverts to its normal speed and elements just doesn't open...
Any help would be great cause I feel like I've exhuasted all self-troubelshooting options and need to either get help from the forums or take the laptop in before I smash it in rage

Thanks for the reply with additional information.
Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
driver version roll back.
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
Thanks.

Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
later versions of Premiere Elements.

My iPad is acting like it is possessed. It opens apps, closes them, switches to others without anyone touching it.
