My screen will suddenly be 're-directed' by Modzilla to a new site not ever opened by me. What's happening?
When on a screen, it will suddenly disappear and I will be at another screen, usually '...film trailers'.
I have never opened this screen in the past.
The comment at the bottom is "re-directed by Modzilla"
This has just happened in the last few days, 3-4 times.
I'll try more/different anti-virus programs and let you know.
Thanks,

When I am on the internet, my screen will suddenly scroll all the way to the bottom and will not respond to any commands. All of the other programs are then affected the same way and you cannot even use the commands at the top of the screen becayse they all scroll to the bottom. After a while, the screen resets by itself. Help.
It sounds like a problem wih the backlight inverter. Usually they just go, instead of on and off.
In a dark room hold a flashlight on the display when it blacks out. If you can see the items on the desktop, it's probably the backlight. -
Use HDMI to HDTV, screen will suddenly change color to PINK
Is anyone know why I use HDMI to my 40" HDTV. The screen will suddenly turn to green and everything change to PINK color. It will turn back normal after a while.
The problem indeed seems to be limited to the Mac platform and senior LV developer Greg McKaskle posted the following explaination on info-labview:
***************quote*************
The mac version of the rendering engine fails to allocate rendering context larger than 512 pixels wide or tall. When your meter gets above about 710, that is when the radial ramp goes above 512 and the allocation fails. When it fails, LV reverts to using a noninterpolated ramp.
Future versions of the render engine will hopefully not have this limitation or we will learn to work around it.
happy wireworks

When on FaceTime, the screen will suddenly reeze for a few seconds as well as the audio. This happened to everyone I have talked to on FaceTime. Any suggestions to keep this from happening?
Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

I've read that OS X Lion will require 2 g's of memory, but the official site says nothing about memory. What's the case?
Under Pricing and Availablity in this press release they mention 2 Gigs of ram.
http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2011/06/06Mac-OS-X-Lion-With-250-New-Features-Av ailable-in-July-From-Mac-App-Store.html
Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM. The Lion upgrade can be installed on all your authorized personal Macs.

Safari 4.0.4 will suddenly reload previous page while I'm reading new page
I'll be happily reading down a column of text on a webpage and suddenly the browser will load the previous page as if I'd hit the back button.
Any ideas?I am having the same problem with my wireless mouse! It has been happening for months, since I bought my iMac in November. The mouse was, obviously, included with my purchase. I keep forgetting to complain about the problem, until today when this odd occurrence happened for the 500th time.
Sometimes, not always, a page I am reading will suddenly jump back a page when I reach for the mouse to slide it. I have not clicked anything, nor have I touched anything on the keyboard. It is random, and when it happens as I am composing text it is incredibly maddening! How do I make this stop? I have checked my setting and all are compatible. -
My iPad has been suddenly enlarging the screen view to almost double. This occurs randomly. I then must completely turn the iPad off using the power button (the slide isn't always visible), wait a few minutes then power up. Sometime I have to repeat this more than once. Any fixes?
On the Home screen, double-tap with three fingers to exit zoom.
Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility and make sure Zoom is turned Off.

My MacBook pro is just over 3 years old now and the screen has totally blacked out for a few seconds at a time. It will come back on in a few seconds with the exception this past month it has stayed black for a longer period of time like one minute. It scares me to think that one of these times it won't come back on. I have noticed it happens more often when I am using just the battery power. Does anyone have any idea what causes this? just to mention my battery was not low when this happens.

if your MacBook Pro is a 15-inch Mid 2010 model (“MacBookPro6,2”), then it might be exhibiting the defect that is documented on this Apple Support page. If your black screen is due to this defect, then that page states that Apple will service this problem on this specific model of MacBook Pro gratis, for three years from the date of purchase. However, some commenters here have noted that sometimes the servicing is done gratis without having proof of the date of purchase. If you have an Apple Store near you, you might consider bringing your MacBook Pro there to have them check for the presence of this defect.
It is only the 15-inch Mid 2010 model that has this problem; no other model suffers from it. -
this happens whether I am online or offline. I could be playing a game and if I stop for a minute or so, it will do the above.
HELP it is making me nuts!The easiest way is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.

Not sure what I did but all of a sudden everything I touch has a voice attached to it. For instance, if I touch an icon it tells me out loud what the icon is and tells me to double click it. ***??? Help!
Connect your iPhone to your computer via its USB cable and select it in the left column of iTunes.
Select the "Summary" tab, scroll to the bottom and click the "Configure Universal Access" button.
Disable "VoiceOver" and click the "OK" button.
Click the "Sync" button at the bottom-right. -
Very strange. Why would it disappear after all this time
Very good question. In fact I have just replaced my monitor with a higher resolution screen. However it is all irrelevant now as I have cured it. I uninstalled the old versions of the Converter and installed the latest version 9. All works ok. The hardest part was finding where the DNG Converter had squirreled away on my computer. Eventually found it but I couldn't get access to it through the Control Panel.
Many thanks for your reply -
I am using Windows Vista. My itunes launched fine until now. Now I get an error - "The Itunes application could not be opened. The required folder cannot be found". I have no idea what file it is looking for. Has anyone seen this error?
I have also tried to uninstall the package and I get the error Could not access network location %APPDATA%\. And it won't uninstall. I don't know why it's complaining in both cases.
Itunes was working 3 weeks ago with no problem.

Can someone help me to be able to access the iBooks & iTunes sites now that I've updated ?
Try a reset, press and hold both the home and power buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. Check apps.
