My tabs randomly become scrambled and encrypted in what appears to be mandarin? What is going on???

When I have my web browser open for some moderate time period, suddenly the "web-page tabs" become scrambled and have an overwriting text which appears to be Mandarin or Japanese. The red "close (x)" button on the tab as well as the plus (+) to open a new window page all come scrambled and out of alignment and/or hidden. If I close out my browser and clear all my internet data and reopen, things start normal again. But these symptoms are ALWAYS returning. It does not matter what webpage I am on. Even Google's search engine get's this "tab-scramble." ANY HELP? Is this a virus, worm, bug? I have Norton anitvirus and MacAfee Internet security, but they don't detect anything. And again, this occurs on any harmless site. I can email screenshots of these occurrences if it helps. Thanks for any suggestions!!

Hello Drvsowlaks,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To isolate and troubleshoot this issue I'd like you to first reset your iPad by following the steps in the article below.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If the issue persists, please back up your iPad, and then restore it to its factory defaults.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
Take care,

Imports from my memory card to Aperture have suddenly become scrambled, not in numerical, chronological or any order. Whats up?

Imports from my memory card to Aperture have suddenly become scrambled. Not in numerical, chronological, or any order.

Hi waynecook. More information is needed in order to provide a helpful response.
What settings are you using in the Import dialog?
Can you sort the images once they are imported?
Are they sorted/sortable in the Import dialog?
Into what container are you importing them?
Is your installation of Aperture and of OS X completely up-to-date?

When creating a multi page document, some of my thumbnails become linked and can't be separated for editing. What am I doing wrong and how do I correct this?

When creating a multi page document, some of my thumbnails become linked and therefore impossible to rearrange. What am I doing wrong and how do I correct this?

The pages in sections stick together because the text flows between the pages.
Insert a section break to isolate pages between sections.
Now this all works in Pages '09, unfortunately Pages 5 doesn't let you.

Safari window becomes scrambled and looks like...

...something Jackson Pollock created. Does anyone know why this is happening? It happens intermittently but enough to be a nuisance. The rest of my display is fine...only the portion of the display within the Safari window has this issue. Thoughts? If needed, I can post a screenshot. Thanks in advance for any help!

(First check that you have checked the box Enable Plug-ins in Safari Preferences/Security! )
Update 10.6.4 included an out-of-date version of FlashPlayer*. Try deleting it and installing the latest one from Adobe even if it has the same version number as the one you have:
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
* To avoid this situation in the future, Apple recently announced that Macs would in future not have Flash Player pre-installed, precisely to avoid this situation, saying:
We're happy to continue to support Flash on the Mac, and the best way for users to always have the most up to date and secure version is to download it directly from Adobe.
They also noted that this will be happening across all Macs in the future, though there may be some models still in the channel with Flash pre-installed.

It is also interesting to note that more than half of the security issues addressed by the recent security update 2010-007 (for Leopard and Snow Leopard) were Flash related:
http://photos.appleinsider.com/cve.001.jpg
"the most security vulnerabilities by far are associated with the Adobe Flash plugin, with a whopping 55 issues listed, the "most serious of which may lead to arbitrary code execution," Apple reports in its Apple Product Security update.
The security issues related to Flash are in fact the stated reason why Apple is backing away from bundling the plugin with its new computers. Apple began shipping the MacBook Air without Flash installed, noting that customers could install the plugin on their own to ensure they had the latest, most secure version.
However, testing indicates that in normal operation, Flash can also consume dramatic amounts of battery life just to animate web ads in the background, resulting in as much as two hours of lost productivity on a single charge."

My iPhone 5 just randomly shut off and it won't turn back on. What do I do?

I pulled my phone out of my pocket to check something and i hit my home button to open my phone and it wouldnt turn on. I tried the lock button and that didnt ework either. I thought my phone may have died so i tried to turn it back on and that didnt work. It had about a 40% battery and this has not occured any in the past. Please help!!!

Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond.

Mi ipod touch 5th generation randomly turned off and it wont turn back on or charge. what should i do?

hi!
i have the ipod touch 5th generation and last night i was using like i normally do,but the it just turned off and i thought that my battery died so i put it to charge but im pretty sure that my battery was at least 40% so i found that a little bit odd and when i plug it in it didnt make any sound and nothing showed on the screen. I kind of just ignored it so i let it charge the whole night and the next morning when i woke up the firts thing i did was to check on it. My ipod still wont turn on or charge and tried to connected to my computer but nothing shows up. i will really appreciate if someone could help me.
thank you (:

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have an i tunes a/c and wish to buy pages and numbers. when I press on the 'buy now' button, it turns green but then nothing happens, the page remains on the screen and they don't appear on my account What to do?

Problems buying 'pages and numbers, I have an itunes a/c and have been trying to buy pages and numbers for 2 weeks now. When I press the green button to 'Buy now' nothing happens, the page remains on the screen. If I open my account, i haven't purchased anything
Has any-one experienced this problem
Thanks

Just to clarify...
Did you know that by purchasing it in iTunes, you are purchasing the iOS version of Pages and Numbers? If you wanted the Mac version, it should be downloaded from the Mac App Store.
If you DID want to download a copy for an iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, then try purchasing these apps on one of those devices rather than iTunes and see if it works.

Why is text become blurry and out of focus?

Why is text become blurry and out of focus?

I am confused what device you are talking about. You question is here in the Using iPhone section, but it is marked for your MacBook Pro running iOS 6? If you are talking about an iPhone and you never update your profile to say you are running iOS 7, I would blame the paralax feature that slightly zooms into your picture, making certain low-res photos look extra blurry. Hope this helps.

I am unable to see any POP3 or IMAP tab when I set up an account in my iphone 4S. Hence by default all my email accounts become IMAP and the messages are deleted from the server when I delete them from the iphone.

ok sorry everyone but i solved it myself but the solution is so nuts i've posted it here to help others who have the same problem.
to setup a comcast imap account on your iphone:
go to mail, contacts, etc in settings
under accts, select add account
select "other"
new screen, choose "add mail account"
now on the new acct screen you must enter your name, email address and password for your GMAIL acct ! (yes i said your gmail acct !, or some other acct with a NON comcast address).
hit next
then the acct verifies
when verified a screen will open with all the acct settings for this acct AND @ the top of the screen are the 2 buttons > imap or POP
select imap and THEN CHANGE ALL THE ACCOUNT information to the comcast account !
then hit next and the account will take a couple minutes to verify but it will verify and now you have a comcast imap acct set up on your iphone. The problem must be that when the iphone sends the initial verify acct info to comcast (if you enter that information first) the comcast server is simply not setup yet to signal the iphone that there is an imap option.

My trackpad and keyboard randomly become unresponsive on MBP Retina

I just got my Macbook Pro with Retina a week ago. Its the newest model that just came out the week I got it. Its a 13 Inch. I noticed when I am using it, the trackpad and kayboard randomly become unresponsive for sometime. I have to close it and wait for it to start working again. Do you have any idea what the problem might be. Should I contact Apple?

I went through this with my old Late 2008 Macbook Uni when I installed Kingston Value RAM.
Take your new RAM out - install your old RAM back - do a PRAM reset and see if your keyboard and trackpad are working again.
Once that's done - turn your Macbook off - install the new RAM - if keyboard and trackpad are unresponsive again - install different brand of RAM.
I ended up intalling Crucial RAM in mine.
Good luck.

After being open for a while (with several tabs) Firefox becomes generally unresponsive and stops playing sound - videos will still play, but no sound.

This problem has only begun happening recently. I commonly keep my Firefox open overnight with websites like rainymood.com or grooveshark.com playing, as well as several other tabs including but not limited to Facebook, Reddit, and YouTube. Sometimes, after several hours/days of not restarting Firefox or my computer, Firefox begins to become unresponsive - that is to say, pages take a long time to load, opening new tabs is difficult for the browser, and videos will take up to 30 seconds to begin playing. In addition to this, sound will stop playing; if I begin a YouTube video, after the initial period of excessive loading, the video will play, but without any audio. Also, websites such as rainymood.com and grooveshark, even Facebook, will stop making sound.
Note that this is different from a flash plugin crash - when flash crashes, both audio and video become inaccessible and a simple refresh or restart of Firefox will solve the problem. But what is happening here is different; if I refresh the tab, nothing changes, and even if I restart Firefox, it opens again the same way until I restart my computer completely.
Also of note: I have had, in the past, this same thing happen but rainymood.com continued playing, however no other tabs would make sound. The problem is sporadic and I'm not sure where to begin. Also, sometimes this is only a Firefox-specific problem, meaning other programs on my computer can make sounds, but sometimes this problem makes my entire computer stop making sounds, except for Ventrilo, which works but is also unresponsive at first.

You can also try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
