My motorola cable modem reset itself every 15 or 30 minutes

why does my motorola cable modem (sb6141) reset itself every 15 or 30 minutes everyday?

Start with the modem's signal stats. Perhaps they already are, or they are close to being out of spec and intermittently they go completely of spec. Try getting them here http://192.168.100.1
Please post the *Downstream Power Level*, the *Upstream Power Level*, and the *SNR* (Signal to Noise Ratio) numbers.

HT1435 iPod Classic reboots itself every minute, is there a way to restore it?

After populating a new iPod Classic up to 50GB of 160GB space, it reboots itself every minute. No chance for iTunes to recognise so no way to reset/reload the device.
Any other way anyone can suggest? Mainly to delete the contents before replacing/returning to the shop.

Have you had a look at Troubleshooting here...

ITunes 11.x resetting itself every time its closed and relaunched

Itunes 11.x keeps resetting itself every time I close it and then later reopen. It prompts accepting the end user agreement, then upon entering, all the sync preferences are reset. Doesn't seem to effect backup of apps or music library. I'm using windows vista 64. Tried reinstalling several times removing every apple component including, all apple sub files, preference files in windows user folders, and all other apple folders, with no change upon reinstallation. Tried resetting sync history/cache in iTunes preferences, tried resetting admin rights in windows, tried enough to make this miserable. Can't find any solutions online though have found a lot of people complaining about the same issues with iTunes 11. Thought about removing 11 and installing older version though figured I'd try here first for a solution.
Thank you for the help...

Its a i7 965, 12GB ram, 295GTX, on a ASUS P6T Deluxe m/b, with a PCP&C 860W in a LianLi 7010 case.

My iPhone4 reset itself

I have had my iPhone 4 for two years now without trouble until today. Earlier this morning, it said that my passcode had expired and that I needed to reset it. I entered it and it was working great for about two hours. Then when I went to use it, for the third time after resetting my passcode and entering the new passcode, it would no longer accept my new passcode. Caps weren't on, I was entering it correctly, it was in my purse the whole time so someone else couldn't have reset it, no other reasonable explanation as to why it wouldn't work. Then about an hour later, I tried re-entering my new passcode and the phone reset itself. It is now asking for an Apple iCloud ID and Password, but the problem is that I never had an Apple iCloud ID. What the heck is going on? How do I fix it?

Sorry, this didn't help. I don't know what happened, but the same exact thing happened to about a hundred of my co-workers over the weekend. We all have gotten our iPhones at different times in the last two years, but on Sunday we all got the notification to reset our passcodes, we all reset them successfully and we all were able to use our iPhones for about 4 hours when it no longer accepted our passcodes, at which time they all were wiped. If the passcodes never worked or if it only happened to me, I would think that I entered the wrong passcode. But to a hundred people on the same day? Too odd. Not sure if it was a software bug or a virus, but whatever happened was catastrophic. Our email admin created a step-by-step procedure and passed it out to everyone so we could reconfigure our iPhones.

Iphone 4S resets itself every few min - the battery drains in an hr.

My iphone 4S is resetting every few minutes as a result the battery drains in an hour.
By resetting I mean, the lock screen would show up, then the apple sign would come up like when you start your iphone, searches for the network etc. This happens every few minute even when the phone is on standby or when I am using it. If I am on the call, then the call gets disconnected because the phone is resetting.
The usage always shows "-" for both Usage and Standby with the message that the usage time will be shown after iphone is fully charged.
This started only a month ago when my phone was not on the latest os version. But now it is on the latest but the problem never did go away. It never fell out of my hand or fall into water and is barely a year old (just 10/15 days over the warranty period).
Please help!

And I should mention that I took the foll steps so far:
1. Let the battery drain out completely and charge it overnight
2. Backed the phone, then reset the phone and restored from backup.
3. Took it to the apple store and they did a different kind of restore but no luck
The only thing left for me to try to is to reset it to factory setting unless some one can suggest some other way.

Finder relaunches itself every minute!

For the last couple of weeks the window focus mysteriously shifts away from the finder while I am working with it. Also, the finder window does frequent refreshes - even if it doesn't lose focus. And the desktop icons flicker and refresh quite often. I just deleted the finder plist and the problem continues.. It often closes and reopens, having returned to my home folder. In fact the finder is unuseable, it happens so often. I have a 30 day trial of Pathfinder installed until I can get Finder working again.
Can anyone suggest how to solve this irritation? Thanks a million! John

Boot into Safe Mode and see if you still see the problem while running in Safe Mode. If not, then you have some third-party software causing the Finder to crash.

There were some third-party menu bar items that caused that, and I think Google Drive, but I'm not sure (it caused some problem).

I downloaded an add-on to have firefox reset itself everytime I close/reopen. Now I want to remove it. It's not listed as an add-on. How can I get rid of it?

I downloaded an add-on to have firefox reset itself every time I close and reopen it. Now I want to remove it, but it's not showing as an add-on. How can I get rid of it?

You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Finder resets every minute

Last week I upgraded my ibook from 10.4.8 to 10.4.9 via software update. i think i also updated quicktime and iTunes at the same time. After doing this I began experiencing a problem i've never seen before in which the finder 'resets' every minute or so, regardless of what program i am running. the desktop items disappear for a few moments and when they reappear, i'm "in" the finder and have to click on the window of the progam i'm in to continue using the program (e.g. if i'm typing in Word or Mail, i have to click on that doc in order to continue typing, something i've done 3 times since beginning this message). I downloaded 10.4.9 combo and installed that. no change. i thru away the system and finder preferences in my library. no change, and the finder prefs renews itself at every 'reset'. there is no 'finder reset' option from the finder dock icon like there once was--the only option is "hide". Any suggestions?

I suspect the magic word is "StuffIt"--for some reason its various add on goodies frequently have unfortunate effects on the Finder.
Restart and hold down the Shift key as soon as you hear the startup chime. This will boot you into Safe Mode, which will repair the disk, clean a couple of caches, and disable ALL third party startup items (and a few of Apple's too). The start will take longer than normal as it does all this. The Finder should now work normally, and you can start looking for Stuffit add ons: check here:
"/Users/yourname/Library/Contextual Menu Items"
"/Library/Contextual Menu Items"
If you find something from StuffIt in either location, drag it to your Desktop. Also launch System Preferences, go to Accounts and click the Login Items tab. If there is something in there from StuffIt click on it to select, then click the minus button at the bottom. Now restart normally and see if the Finder is working correctly.

Since installing IOS7.0.2 my iPad keeps rebooting itself every few minutes. I can't do anything with it and cannot download the new IOS7.2 because it doesn't run long enough to accomplish the download. What can I do?

Since installing IOS7.0.2 my iPad keeps rebooting itself every few minutes. I can't do anything with it and cannot download the new IOS7.2 because it doesn't run long enough to accomplish the download. What can I do?

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Iphone 3gs- updated to the ios 5.0.1... since then i plugged it into itunes, an now my phone restarts itself every 3-4 minutes! Restored 4 times and still not working help please!!!!!

iphone 3gs- updated to the ios 5.0.1... since then i plugged it into itunes, an now my phone restarts itself every 3-4 minutes!!! it so annoying! its useless, i cant do anything with it. restored it 4 times and its still doing it!!! please help!!!
i contacted o2 and they said id have to pay to get it fixed after sending it away for ten days if their was a fault, when im still under warranty!! contacted apple who will get back to me!

I am assuming you updated to version 5.1.1, not 5.0.1 since no legitimate version of 5.0.1 is available.
Where is this iPhone from and what means did you use to unlock it?

Nano resetting itself after a minute or so into the workout.

For some reason my iPod started resetting itself right after I start my workouts. I keep restarting the workout. It tracks the info for about a minute and half then completely shuts off, shows the big black screen apple, then restarts. The battery was fully charged so that's not the issue. It did this 6 or 7 times. Now today, it doesn't reset but the Last Workout, Recent Workouts and Personal Best are now blank. Is the receiver piece that's plugged into my iPod dying? The iPod seems to be ok. I'd hate to have future runs not recorded because this issues surfaces again. Anyone else had this issue?

Most likely, it's a corrupted xml file. This has happened to me several times over the past couple of years. If you have Tinkertool (or another utility that shows invisible files), you can access your iPod's Trainer folder (which holds the workout xml files, delete them, and it should fix the problem.
Hope this helps!

ITunes 10.5 starts itself every few minutes for some unknown reason

iTunes 10.5 installed on a Vista system to perform the iPhone 5.0 iOS upgrade. Now iTunes starts itself every few minutes for some unknown reason. Exiting iTunes will close it (and, of course, remove it from the Task manager list of running applications), but in a while it will restart all over again.
Thoughts?

if u have wifi sync on turn off open when this ipod/iphone/ipad is connected
