My phone spazzes and randomly does stuff on its own like typing a bunch of random letters, or scrolling up/down a page, or going out of an app. What can be done about that?
I have a 5S and I've had it since december. ever since i got it I've had trouble whit it. It spaces out at random times, types stuff on its own, goes out of applications, scrolls up/down a page etc. This happens almost daily and the only thing I can do about it is lock my phone, go back in, quit all my apps... Along with that now my touch ID has not been working. Although it has started today, I am worried.
I have an iPhone 6 and have been having this issue since I got it in December 2014. Apps open on their own, scrolling up and down, etc. It's like a ghost is touching the screen. It seems to be the worst when my Verizon connection is only at 3G or my wifi strength is low. I'm not sure if it's an iPhone thing or a carrier issue?? Any ideas?

why does my ipad mini keep glitching!! /:
Your iPhone doesn't require as much power to charge as your iPad needs so there is a possibility that the charge could have a problem even though you were able to charge the phone. If you can try a different power adapter and still have no luck, then the only thing left - IMO - is to contact Apple support and see what they advise.
BTW .... Copied from your first post ...
i then decided to do a reset or restore by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button down.
I'm not trying to be a nitpicker - but what you described is a hard reset and your post gave no indication that you tried a software restore - which I referenced in my post. That's why I suggested the restore.
Many times restoring the iPad to factory settings can help "revive" the device. If you have tried restoring according to the two support articles that I directed you to and still have no success, you are probably out of luck getting any further help on this site. That's all that you can try at this point at least AFAIK. -
hello, my friend's i pad locked and need the apple id and password to unlock the setup and open the i pad but he don't remember any one of them nor his email and security questions the serial number of tha i pad is DYT*******PH and the part number is MC979ZP/A what can we do about that please solution?
<Edited by Host>Your friend will have to remember or find his account id and password, without them he won't be able to re-activate the iPad.
Does he have any of the account's downloads in his computer's iTunes library : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name.
Or has he tried finding it via http://appleid.apple.com : Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID.
If he can find the account id he can then get its password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com
(As these are user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple, I've asked the hosts to remove the serial number from your post.) -
Hi wondering if anyone can help me, i have an itouch 4 gen and the front cover has started to come away, it hasn't been dropped or anything just started to come away ( although i did notice that it was heating up drastically ) looks to me like the glue has dyed up and as usual the guarantee had not long ran out.

I have what looked like a small bug that ran up and down the screen and then sudenly stopped in center upper half of screen and now appears to be burned in to the inside of the screen, anyone had this probelm before and what can be done about it?
Thanks for the suggestion, the next step was to call Apple, who gave me a claim number, which I discovered you must have to get anything done with them. They refered me to a Apple store or repair center, after some reseach took it to the Computer Store in Mobile, Alabama and they were excellent. They took pictures of the screen with bug submitted it to Apple who denied the claim but they kept kicking it up to the next level and finally Apple agreed to sent new cover. The Computer Store had the cover the next day, they changed it out and now I am bug free. If your in the area of Mobile Alabama you can feel good about getting help from the Computer Store. For the two folks that responded to my note, Thank You, good comments and good advice.

What can be done so that these files do not eat up all the disk space.
Dear Adviser
This is NOT a bug report or an enhancement request.
We are looking for advice on a customer support call.
We are using iPlanet Webserver 4.1 SP7 and iPlanet Directory
Server 4.12 on Solaris 2.8.
We are checking to see if there is any engineering
documentation or quick pointers on LDAP database file
sizes and cache file sizes that may relate to a
reported problem.
Thank you for your time and co-operation in advance.
We have been working on a TIBCO/Portal Builder customer
issue that does not seem to have guidance in end
user documentation. This is related to a significant
increase in LDAP and cache file sizes (which at this
point do NOT seem to affect any performance). Is this
something that you are aware of from your QA/performance
tests? The problem seems to have suddenly cropped
up and we are attempting to isolate the triggerring event.
We started with the possibility that it is
a. Solaris Platform issue
OR
b. LDAP issue
We have done several experiments to isolate specific
issues as described below. We have researched
Sun/iPlanet web site and technical sites on the net.
Currently, we believe that the LDAP database size is increasing
because the Portal has been configured with pages
that have a lot of "Personalized" panes. Users are visiting
these pages, and getting automatically subscribed to these
panes, which add corresponding entries in the LDAP server.
Please find below the listing of all the files (from LDAP
DB directory) which are growing very fast. Kindly advise what can be
done so that these files do not eat up all the disk space.

Tibco SupportThis may be perfectly normal behavior for the LDAP server. If some application is adding a lot of data to the server, the database will necessarily grow. You can look at the access log to find out the IP address of the client, the BIND dn of the client, and the operations from that client. Perhaps this will help you narrow down the culprit.

Hi, I recently updated to iOS 8.0 on my Ipad mini however when i try to agree to the new terms and conditions i get an error message saying either 'Cannot connect to server' or 'Your session has timed out please try again' what can be done to resolve this problem? Also i cannot download anything from the App store as a result of this.
Can you check the Object Security for the Analysis Menu and Export button and see if it is restricted?
Also, is this a Oracle DB? IF so, has the following 32 bit Oracle Client components been isntalled:
Oracle Objects for OLE
Oracle Data Provider for .NET
Oracle Providers for ASP.NET -
My power button on my iphone is not working. What can i do about that?
my power button on my iphone is not working. What can i do about that?
Meaning that you cannot restart or reset the phone? If you haven't tried already, try both options.
Otherwise, you can do a backup & restore, or even a restore as new (only after a successful backup).
If the issue persists, then look at a replacement. Either it will be a hardware defect (free if within warranty), or physical damage ($49 with AppleCare Plus, $149 without it.) -
Photos recently changed from sequential numbering to date/timestamp. When I import into apps for editing they are out of order. What can be done to change back to sequential numbering instead of date/timestamp?
The date information is taken from the camera which writes it to the file. This needs to be set to the correct date and time in the camera itself.
The order the images are shown in the Library mode is set by clicking on the sort button in the tool bar, which if not showing can be activated from view, tool bar. There are different sort orders that can be applied including sorting by file name. You can also sort by dragging the images to the order you wish them to appear in by selecting user order. -

Im on iOS 8.0.2 and it just keeps going out of cellular service, what can i do?
Hello there cubandope,
If I understand correctly, your iPhone cellular data is dropping periodically, but you can still make calls. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article to help resolve the issue here:
If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad
Follow these steps, testing after each.
Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
Restart your device.
Remove the SIM card. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or if it's too big or small for the SIM tray, contact your carrier for a new one. Then reinsert the SIM card.
Check for a carrier-settings update: Connect to a Wi-Fi network, tap Settings > General > About, and install any available carrier-settings updates. If you can't connect to Wi-Fi, connect your device to a computer that has iTunes.
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues.
Restore your iPhone.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

What can be done about this outrageous bill??!
Ok, here's some back story; My girlfriend and I were on the same plan for about a year or so. Here recently we broke up and she continued on the plan for about another month while we were working out some money issues. During that time (not having any Wifi at her house) she constantly watched shows and such on her phone, which sky rocketed the phone bill into it's 70th overage allowance!!! Her line ended up using a total of 80 gigs while mine only used about 5, which is normal. I kicked her off immediately and had her accept responsibility for her own line. I know, I should of done it earlier, but it was a different situation then. Lesson learned I guess.
When that happened, it obviously started a fresh new plan for her and I was stuck with a $1,400 bill! I asked Verizon (customer reps, hadn't spoken to any "supervisors" yet) if there was anything that could be done as far as her taking responsibility for her part of the bill. The obvious answer was no, simply because I'm the account owner and it's my responsibility, which I think is absolutely ridiculous! I'm not the one sitting her ringing up a bill that high. She did it on her line, it's her responsibility! That should follow her over to her account, and she should be liable for paying for the charges she rung up! That would be fair, right?? The way they have it set up now isn't in any way, shape or form fair. When asking about how much time I'd have to pay it, I was told they could only push it out a couple of days. I don't make anywhere near that much in such a short time, let alone with having other bills to pay and everything, and they expect you to just cough it over that quick!
I'm on here to see if there's anything at all that can be done about this stupidly high bill, or if any Verizon associates here might be able to help. If not, I'll take my number and go to another carrier. This is ridiculous and I'm not at all happy!As the account owner, you are personally responsible for all charges on your account. Period.
If you feel that another person is responsible for the charges, then Small Claims Court would be the avenue for you to explore.
You might want to contact Verizon Financial Services and set up payment arrangements for the amount you owe. There might be more that they can do to schedule a series of payments.

And even though she is off your account now, you might also want to set up data alerts on your account so that you get alerted when you are near your data limit. It's one thing to be a little bit over, but 80GB? Seriously? -

See here: iPod Displays a Red "X" Icon
Note that the fatal red X is often a clear indication that your iPod's HD is shot and in need of replacement. You'll need to take or send your iPod in for repair either through Apple or a third party service.

What can be done about my lack of coverage and service?
I am well inside 4g coverage area and have been in the same house for over 5 years now. In that time our coverage has gone from 3 bars down to 1 bar within the last year and a half or so, and starting a couple days ago our phones think we are in roaming??
Minorly off topic is we have been lied to repeatedly at the local sales store and or corporate more than once, the largest pain being the fiasco in "renewing" my military discount I am eligible for by being a disabled vet. had it for years then we get a mail saying it needs to be renewed, go in to local store and they do the paper work, corp says they didnt get it we have to jump through a bunch more hoops its finally reinstated.
So is this crappy service and lack of coverage tho map shows us more than covered just part of what we pay over a hundred bucks a month for? No way to complain to anyone but to other people with problems? Canceling our account will be a big hurt financially up front but be a little easier on our pocketbook in the long run. (we would have to do local land line phone service which is almost as much and with no features at that, so not much easier)
Is there some way out of this as they are no longer providing the service they did when we signed up? thi site is a mess and impossible to find actual help for anything, they will sell me more stuff and give me a person even if i want to buy something. an issue tho? fergetaboutit, go cry on a forum.
Basicaly now that my crying is done, does anyone see any options that I am not? thank you for your time.
also, this says im my wife .) im not, this is Jeff. thats another area where even "my verizon" page is a mess. we both on the account but each spot canonly have one person I guess. the billing is in her name (she keeps track of the bills) the phone account is in my name so we can get my discount etc etcWe have been with them for years, would love for them to care. but I have seen the dwindling support and the removing of power from those who use to be able to help over those years. I challenge any verizon employee to be seen even. I cant even find an e mail address or any other way to contact verizon other than to buy more from them. This is their "provided customer service" so thought I would use it as a last effort as I know of nothing else to do. I was hoping someone out there had some luck somehow and could give some advice or one of those employees I have seen on here rarely in the past might be able to help or something.
I basically came here assuming I was going to just have to cancel our account as the early cancel fees would be cheaper than continuing to pay for nothing till contracts up. buying their booster the store tried to sell us would probably solve the problem and may be cheaper in the long run but I am also tired of the "give us money while we do less" crap going on with this company. 5 years ago we had fine enough service in my house, we have watched it fade over the years (even tho they say they are putting up better faster service in the area) until we had to go outside to keep our calls connected to now, we are put in roaming while at home. I shouldnt have to keep paying more to keep my service I originaly paid for in my opinion.
I thank you for any help you can find and your continued responses on this thread. But this is also not your responsibility. I am thankfull for anything you can find tho. I am also doing my research into who all I can complain to, not that that will help either, but it might keep one more person from them and much like here it is probably only good for venting. nothing will come of it, but it least it wont stay pent up inside. -

When it has disappeared I can open Firefox again using the menu or the opening icon on the toolbar, but then it only shows up blank, so without the tabs that were opened before. Closing down all other icons on the toolbar is the only way to make the Firefox icon reappear and for me to open Firefox again with all my tabs.
Please excuse my English, the jargon is difficult.Thanks for your reply, cor-el.
The odd thing is, this problem hasn't occurred again since I posted it. What kind of magic is that? :-))
It really is odd, since I had it at least twice a week for several months.
So far, so good, then.
I'll wait a while more, and will then close it as being solved. I guess that's the procedure.
We'll put it down to temporary bugs or pc mysteries.
Though I like the magic option more...
