Osx keeps logs me out all the time!
I just bought the new MBP retina with lion on it the other day, and it is continuously logging me out! doesnt matter what im doing, could be watching a movie, browsing on facebook, or even when im just navigating around finder, it will just go to the log in screen and sometimes closes the applications i have open.
i have no idea why it is doing it, it has never done it with my 2009 macbook i still own, which also has lion on it. Hopefully when i update to mountain lion it will be fixed.
any help would be great, this is most frustrating!
Go to
> System Preferences... > Mission Control
Click the 'hot corners' button in the bottom left. Are any of them set to 'Put display to Sleep' or 'Start ScreenSaver'?
If not, also check
> System Preferences... > Security & Privacy
Click the padlock (bottom left), enter your Admin password, then click the activated 'Advanced...' button (bottom right). Is 'Log out after ... minutes of inactivity' set? If so, disable it.

Hi BillCilla,
If you are having intermittent but persistent drops in AirTunes via your AirPort Express, you may find the following article helpful:

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?
The "fix" is to get the phone repaired. There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you. -
Macbook battery life, is there a problem If I keep it plugged almost all the time?
Hello.
New Mac user here, so I was wondering if there's a problem if I keep my MBP plugged all the time.
Most of the time I'm on my room using my MBP fully charged and I don't disconnect it.
Is there a problem with my batter life if I do that?
Or it's recommended to unplug and use it till the battery run off and then charge it again?
Because I work a lot on my MBP and that way in a simple day I could charge it and run uff the energy of the battery 2 to 3 times at day.
What's better for the life of my battery?
And if you could give me some advices to maintenance my battery and Macbook pro (also programs) I would appreciate it.
I own a Macbook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2012
2.9 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
With OS X 10.9

No. I do that most of the time. Perhaps monthly I discharge it to the 40% level to keep the battery happy. Do not discharge the battery completely. If you are forced to use only battery power and you see the battery is low warning terminate your session or plug into AC if you can.
Here are Apple articles with official battery usage guidelines:

Airplay and airfoil cut out all the time
Whenever I stream music from my mba via either iTunes or AirFoil to my speakers the sound will cut out all the time. If I switch the sound output in sound preferences to the airplay speakers then everything works fine and there's no cutting out. How can this be fixed so that I don't have to change the system preferences everytime I want to play music to the airplay speakers?

Hi people. I have an iPad. Since I updated to 4 all my apps keep turning themselves off, all the time, ncluding Safari. I now have 5.1. I have done everything on the forums: reinstalled everything, deleted running apps, turned off running apps, turned off properly... I now give up and want to throw the blasted thing away. Any input? Thanks.
Did this start happening recently? I have seen this too and no idea why it is happening. I find I am typing away and it just closes, I have to open it up again. I found this first with Angry Birds, but have also experienced it with Facebook and Safari. I have iOS 5.01 so not sure if it is related to this or another iPad issue.
I wasn't sure if it was because of the screen or some other touch issue.

Keeping N85 screen on all the time
How do I force my N85 to keep the screen on all the time when using Google Maps? I have tried to turn off all the Power Saving, Screen locks etc, but the screen still goes off after a few seconds. I have the phone plugged into the cigarette lighter so the battery running down is not a problem?
Install S60SpotON(free) or Smartlight (not free). These apps will keep the backlight on. Get spot on at http://www.outbank.de/index.php?id=29&L=1 or Smartlight from any S60 app store e.g Handango.

Shall I keep power plug on all the time?
Shall I keep power cord plugged on all the time for my MacBook Pro 2011?
You can keep the MBP plugged in whenever possible.
But once or twice a month you should run it on battery
until battery runs down to about 40%.

How to keep internet PPPoe On all the time?
Ok so here is the low down, right now every time i turn on my IMac and want to get the internet. I have to do it manually. as in go to system preference and select network and turn on PPPoe directly from the menu every time i turn on the computer.
Is there anyway to keep the internet on all the time and have it connect automatically without going into menu settings every time.
ThanksHere, you can study this - its pretty simple code that I wrote for one of my own students to develop;-import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Baller extends JFrame implements Runnable{
int top, bottom=250, left, right=250, x=100, y=100;
boolean down=true, forwd=true;
public Baller(){
JPanel pan = new JPanel(){
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.fillOval(x,y,30,30);
pan.setOpaque(false);
getContentPane().add(pan);
setSize(290, 310);
setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
new Thread(this).start();
public void run() {
while (true) {
if(down) y++;
