Notes wont stay closed and grabs focus.

Running OSX 10.9.4 on iMac Dual Core 2 Duo.
Issue with Notes 2.0 (284)
Cannot get ‘Notes’ to stay closed. I have tried Quit, Force Quit, Restarting, Disk Check, CCleaner and Virus scan.
Everytime I shut it down it restarts within 5 - 10s. Once running it grabs focus from other applications, again every 5 - 10s- very annoying when typing urls and passwords!
The only recent change to my system that I can think of was the deletion of Twonky media server.
I have logged on as another user and their account doesn’t have this issue.
I can obviously delete the faulty account but that would be a hassle I wish to avoid.

It was Twoky's fault!!
CleanTwonkyServerData.command file was left behind with the following command in it...
sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.fra mework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
open /Applications/Notes.app
Took all day to track that down and apart from annoying people I've no idea why it's in there!

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

I have firefox minimized while I work. Every so often, the firefox window is restored and grabs focus.
Very annoying!

Screen Cracked and replaced, now phone wont stay on, and now i cant get it to turn back on

about 3 days ago i dropped my phone and the screen cracked. Although it was cracked it still worked fine with no issues and the new ios6 was installed prior to it breaking. I brought it to a iphone repair store where they fixed the screen. After a day i noticed the phone just turned itself off so i put it on the charger and returned and it was working. ever since then it has now shut off randomly for no reason, battery was either fully charged or more than 50%. I hooked it up to my computer to restore it today and it seemed to work for about 3 or 4 hours until it started to turn off on its own. i would restart it and it would work for a shorter and shorter period of time until now it wont stay on at all. i plugged it into the charger and it goes through the apple powerup screen and when it turns on it says searching for network in the top left corner. when i press apps and such it is very laggy and it eventually freezes and the screen fades to black and the cell phone turns off. I cannot get it to stay on now, even when it stays plugged into the charger...HELP PLEASE!!! is this an apple issue or something the repair shop may be responisble for?????

The reapair shop is probably responsible. And now that you took it to a third party and not to apple store, Apple will not touch your phone at all. So you will probaly have to buy a new one or go back to the reapir shop and hope they can fix it.

Navigation pane will not stay closed and covers main window

Using RoboHelp Version 7.0.3 to produce FlashHelp - ongoing project that I've been working on for quite some time.
Just noticed this:
I launched the Help from the application with an F1. I then closed the navigation pane in the Help output and resized the window to be tall, narrower, so I could view Help and the application window side-by-side. When changing focus between windows the SECOND time I bring focus back to the open Help window, the navigation pane reappears on its own. And it COVERS the left side of the main window, there is no horizontal scroll at the bottom, and you cannot close the navigation pane at this point. Instead, you must exit the Help and relaunch it from the application to return to a usable state, where the nav pane appears on the left and the Help topic appears on the right with appropriate scroll bars, etc.
I showed my developers this and we were able to recreate several times. Their guess is it's a problem in the javascript... Is there a fix for this? Sure looks like bug.

I'm running the latest iTunes on my Windows XP system, and it keeps restarting unless I do a force termination (in windows terminology, I have to end the process in the Task Manager).
This automatic restarting is so annoying that I end up killing the windows process, and it won't start again until i reboot the computer.
Oh, and this has been going on for well over a year, with other versions of iTunes. And I'm not sharing the contents assuming that sharing would try to force iTunes to stay open. So I removed the sharing of my iTunes library to no avail.
Apple can hardly expect to be the best choice for everyone if they don't have solutions to these obvious problems. Obvious because i've seen this complaint appear for the past 5 years, since 2007 and maybe earlier than that.
Don't they know how to end a program cleanly?

Ipod wont stay connected and icon disappears from finder

I have a new 80g video ipod, have had it for about three weeks. Up until today all was fine, but now it won't stay connected to itunes after updating files. It connects, shows up on the desk top for a few seconds, updates any new files and then just drops out. It keeps the do not disconnect screen for a few seconds, then the red warning logo disappears and after that i can not do anything with the ipod in itunes. The ipod music list is greyed out and I can't add any new photos or change anything. The only thing I have done differently since it was last working ok was I connected my camera using the camera connector and uploaded some pictures from that.
I have done a reset and now a restore but that hasn't helped.
is the problem with the ipod or itunes? What can I do?

Sorry, this may be a case of "always read the manual first"!
I think that what I thought was a fault with the ipod was in fact due to the default preference for auto syncing being enabled. As I had my previous ipod set to manual update I was used to being able to make changes to the ipods lists whilst connected, but as my new ipod is still set to automatically sync I now realise that this is why the ipods list was greyed out. In this mode it appears that it is usual that as soon as you connect, itunes updates any changes and then disconnects and the red "do not disconnect" screen on the ipod goes. If there were no new additions or changes to playlists made since the last time you connected, the sync will only take a few seconds and then the ipod screen goes back to the menu list. Also, because in auto sync the ipod will be updated with a copy of your itunes contents, the ipod's list is greyed out due to the fact that you are not able to make changes independently from your itunes list. (i.e. you have to make the changes in itunes in order for these to be replicated on the ipod).
In order to keep connected and be able to alter things on the ipod list you have to have the preference set to manually update. Then the ipods contents are not greyed out and you can add, delete and change playlists without doing this in your main itunes on the computer.
So I think I have answered my own question, unless I am still misunderstanding something here, and the moral is, download and read the manual properly before worrying that there is something wrong with the machine!
I still think its a bit weird that the ipod icon disappears from he desktop though as I thought it would be at least recognised as being attached even if not in disc mode. Should it still show in the finder anyway?

Optical Drive tray wont stay closed

My PowerMacG5's optical drive door is stuck open. It will close using any of the normal procedures, but then immediately opens again whether there is a disk in it or not. No matter what I try, the tray always immediately re-opens and stays open. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Take a close look at the drive when you try to close it and see if the disc tray is hitting something.
This is normal behavior for a drive whose tray is blocked by something, so there may be something in the way.

Wont stay closed

This seems like a standard question that has hit many people through different generations of iTunes, but there doesnt seem to be an answer around for why my itunes opens up twice after I close it (i.e I close it, it opens, I close it, it opens, I close it...) I am running the new Beta 10.3, however this has happened with 10.2 and previous versions.
Any enlightenment would be nice. I am running Win 7 64bit, intel core i5 2500K, 8gb ram, ati radeon hd4770. it also happened on my previous pc which was a amd processor based model also running win 7 64bit
cheers

I found out it was my keyboard's software. If you have a different keyboard it may still be the cause.
This worked for me nicely. I can close itunes whenever I want now.

Video does not restart when closed and re-opened

I have a .f4v file (Adobe Premiere) embedded into a swf. The
video is launched into an iframe when the user clicks on the link
to "See Video". When I close the iframe in Firefox and then click
on the link again to launch the video, it starts from the
beginning. In IE7, IE6 and Safari the video continues from where it
left off. I would like for it to start from the beginning like in
Firefox. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Do you have a link to the video. Why are you using the iframe? I'm curious to see how this works. I have a html page with a swf with buttons that play movies on a small area on the screen it's easily controllable though I only programmed the pause button. I have the selection buttons run the small videos on roll over and a higher res larger version with swf skin with full controls - seek when you click the selection.

Itunes won't stay closed and keeps opening itself

I've seen one report of that happening for a person because EyeTV was set to open iTunes when an export was finished.
Could you have some application set to start iTunes after a task is completed?

Iphone 4s Camera freezes, crashes, and shutter stays closed.

Whenever I try using the camera the shutter opens normally. But sometimes, when the screen tries to focus, the image freezes, a portion of the screen goes bright purple (or a number of other colors lately) before going black, and the shutter closes like I took a picture. Then it just stays closed and won't open.
I've tried suggestions from other support discussions such as turning it off and on, rebooting my iphone, and removing/cleaning the sim card but none of those helped.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on or have any other suggestions?

Hello totodog8,
I would recommend resetting the phone first, with this process.
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.

IF that does not resolve the issue, I recommend restoring your phone with iTunes.

Problems with the Info panel not closing, and constantly flashing.

For some reason my info panel will not stay closed, and it just keeps flashing.

Waterproof Seals dont stay closed

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone else is having simular issues with the waterproof seals not staying closed. My phone is 4 months old and the waterproof seal that covers the charger unit wont stay closed, when I close it, it will pop open again after about 30 seconds, the seal doesnt seem to be broken but I am worried that this renders the phone unwaterproof. I have a flip case on my phone (genuine Sony case) and havent dropped the phone at all. There is no damage and it is in excellent condition. Has anyone or is anyone having the same issues and is anyone able to offer assistance on this issue.
Handset: Sony Xperia Z2
Thanks,
Gareth

My flaps don't come out, I used some for car silicon fluid which I use before winter on doors and rubber seals. I noticed they'll pop up when get dry and so far no problem for mine device. A colleague has a later Z2 and his flaps do open all the time in fact he bought new flaps from sony store for change but it didn't solve the problem, it must be something with hole shape that pushes the flaps out. My first Z2 was badly formed and my flaps didn't hide out from the box, the device was exchanged for a new one right away saying something like "the phone couldn't be repaired due to manufacturing fault. The device was exchanged for a new, issue-free example."

New Pioneer DVR-110 installed, "patchburned", BUT drive won't stay closed.

Have had some good advice on how to intall a new DVD/CD drive, but after installing a New Pioneer DVR-110 (I thought succesfully) on my G4, and downloading Patchburn for Panther, the DVD drive now won't function as the computer keeps ejecting or opening the drive tray.
After installing the drive, I installed Patchburn, and Toast did recognize the drive. I then tried to verify disc permissions on the computer and it kept getting hung up during repair/verify saying it lost connection with the drive manager. Tried Onyx to repair/verify permissions and it too gets hung up. (Had to force quit)
Any advice on how to get the drawer of the DVD drive to stay closed and what else I need to do to get it working?... Alas I can not even reinstall my original OSX software now as I can't boot from the disc drive since it won't stay closed.
Thanks, Rob
G-4 Quicksilver Mac OS X (10.3.9)

You can verify the closeness by opening the empty drive door with the KB and then hold the door open and close drawer with the KB.
