Phone restarting every 25 seconds

Hello,
I dropped my N900 in water while it was on. I immediately removed the battery and put the phone in rice for 48 hours. Now every time i connect the battery the phone starts automatically but freezes at the Nokia Logo screen and keeps turning off and on immediately every ~25 seconds. I can't turn it off unless i remove the battery, so i cannot really connect it to the computer. Is there any solution to this or is it even fixable?
Thank you.
P.S. Sorry if there was a thread with the same problem, but couldn't really find one with the exact same symptoms

@nykcu
Sounds as if your N900 has entered a "boot loop", inconvenient it maybe but still some life in it!
How to resolve this issue may depend upon whether only PC available to you or you have access ether to Mac or Linux machine. Either way you may need to look over at http://talk.maemo.org/ and this may help:/t5/Maemo-and-MeeGo-Devices/Top-12-Maemo-N900-Issues-amp-Fixes/m-p/753608/highlight/true#M18135
It may be helpful to find someone with 5230, 5800XM, C3-00, X6, X1 or Asha 200 in case you need to charge battery out of your N900 before starting.

Droid ultra wont turn on blk screen and phone vibrates every few seconds

droid ultra wont turn on blk screen and phone vibrates every few seconds

Hello es1040,
The Droid Ultra is an awesome device with a wide range of features to enjoy. We're excited to partner with you and get your phone on so you can enjoy said features. Is there any physical or liquid damage on the device? Also, is the device charged? I would suggest doing a reset to get the phone back to normal. Here's a link on how to do so.

Finder crashes and restarts every 5 seconds or so!

I just installed the Quicktime Security Update. After I restarted the laptop and logged into my account, the finder began to crash and restart every five seconds, making the computer nearly unusable. I logged out and logged into another account that I have for debugging. In this account everything works. I have run "Repair Disk Positions," restarted, and tried again. Still I'm having the same problem.
Any ideas what the problem might be and how to fix it?

FWIW, I find it extremely difficult to discern or detect the link that "this" links to, that's part of the reason I use the whole http myself.
Boy, if you think my post was terse you should read posts by a certain L5. He provides very good information but I have never seen him post any answer with more than 10 words. Many are of the format, "No. Read [this]."
I correct myself. More than 6 words.

Windows Explorer was crashing/restarting every few seconds and after trying several different methods of fixes, the only one that worked was removing Firefox, is there something I've missed that I can get Firefox back?

I'm running a Toshiba Satellite laptop that was originally running Windows Vista 32-bit, but was upgraded by me to Windows 7 32-bit. On Windows Vista, all I would run was Firefox. I loved it!!! On Windows 7, I've noticed that Firefox kept hanging whenever I would try to download a file...from anywhere. I got so frustrated I went to try several different browsers. They all worked extremely quickly, whereas Firefox was working so slow, I could click on a link to a page, go get some lunch, come back and it still be trying to load the page. This was drastically unusual for Firefox. I used the other browsers and everything was fine for a week and then Windows Explorer started going down every few seconds. I went to the windows 7 forums and started looking. There were several suggestions on how to fix the problem, none of which worked for my compy. I tried restarting the compy in safe mode. That didn't help. I turned off every startup program except for the essentials and that DID work in keeping Windows Explorer from restarting. I then dove into the tedious task of trying to discern which 3rd party program was the offender. I removed everything from my compy that had been downloaded in the last ten days (well before the windows explorer issue, but not before the firefox issue). That didn't work either. I tried replacing an explorer file, which didn't work either. There were several other things I tried, as well, but nothing worked. Then, I saw a post that Firefox had caused the problem for one person. I went in and did as was suggested and completely removed Firefox and all associated files. Unfortunately, this worked. I haven't had any more trouble with windows explorer restarting. My big problem is, however, I can't run Firefox!!! And I LOVE Firefox!!! It's spoiled me! I hate Internet explorer, which is what I'm forced to run now. I've tried Safari and Google Chrome and don't like either one of those, either. I want my Firefox back! But if it's not working 100% it's less frustrating to be forced to live with the Internet Explorer. I'm going insane, here! Does anyone have any suggestions? I tried clearing out browser history, changing download files and a couple of other things and nothing worked with the Firefox to get it going better before I started having the Windows Explorer difficulty and had to completely erase the Firefox program. If I've missed any info, please don't hesitate to ask!! I'm happy to supply whatever I know about the issue!!

uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

Safari browser restarts every few seconds

the safari browser keeps restarting/recycling every few seconds. restarting computer does not help. chrome,opera ok.is this happening to anyone else?

Check for Login Items
Open System Preferences/Accounts then select the Login Items tab. Delete any files or apps you have listed there. And go to /Library/Startup Items. Move any files in the Startup Items folder to the Trash.
if it's not a login items issue, a third party Safari unsupported plugin may be responsible for the restarts. Help here... Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

Please help me, I really need to be able to use my computer again.
Really appreaciate all the help I can get.
Thanks

There is some info here. Try creating a new user, if possible and log into that. If all is well, there is something wrong with your previous user account. If it still fails, then you've got a system-wide problem.
Third-party Contextual menus sometimes cause this problem. Look in yourUser/Library/Contextual Menu Items/ and move anything to the desktop. Restart and see if that helps. If it does, try placing them back one at a time until you find the culprit.
Good idea but hard to do if you only have 2 or 3 seconds before Finder relaunches.
Try this:
1. Restart computer and hold Command and S. The Command key usually has the Apple logo on it. This will boot you to Single User Mode which will be a black screen with lots of white text.
+Note about Single User Mode and these instructions+: Type everything exactly as instructed (including spaces), keeping letters lowercase or capitals as the appear on screen or in these instructions. In the instructions, when you see <RETURN>, instead of typing it out, you want to press the Return key on your keyboard. In the instructions if you see yourusername then you will need to type your username as you saw it on the screen.
2. Type the following:
mount -uw / <RETURN>
ls /Users <RETURN>
Note: The last command will show a list of the different account folders. Find the one that has your name. This is your username.
cd /Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences <RETURN>
mv com.apple.Finder.plist com.apple.Finder.plist.old <RETURN>
reboot <RETURN>
Note: At this point your computer should restart. Log in how ever you normally do and see if the same thing is happening. If not, stop here. Otherwise repeat step 1 and then go directly to step 3 below.
3. Type the following:
mount -uw / <RETURN>
mv "/Users/yourusername/Library/Contextual Menu Items" "/Users/yourusername/Library/Contextual Menu Items.old" <RETURN>
Note: You may get a message saying the folder doesn't exist. If so, ignore it.
mv "/Library/Contextual Menu Items" "/Library/Contextual Menu Items.old" <RETURN>
reboot <RETURN>
Let the computer restart and things should be working after that.

New MBPwR crashing and restarting every 60 seconds or less...

I have a brand new MacBookPro and right out of the box it is crashing and giving me the white screen with the program error. It does this every 60 seconds or faster. Can't get it past this point.... HELP!

Okay, I tried what you said and about Express lane. Not much help other than told me to download and reinstall Mountain Lion. Does anyone have any idea what the issue is or do many people have this issue RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX?

Finder restart every two seconds! After install security update 2011-005

After install security update 2011-005, I rebot my computer and every seemed normal, until I saw that started to restart the finder.
Help me! please.
PD: I try to delete the famous "com.apple.finder.plist" but I can't found them.
Is a MacBook Pro 13'' mid 2009 OS X Lion (10.7.1)

You may be able to repair this with 10.4.8 PPC Combo Update
This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before. It has worked well for many.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

Kdcmond restarting every 10 seconds

I am getting the following console message repeatedly:

Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi shazlacka,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPad is restarting unexpectedly, and you have already reset all settings and force quit all open applications, I recommend backing up and restoring the iPad next:

Finder keeps crashing every 2 seconds. How do I stop it?

I restarted my Mac using safe reboot (holding down the shift key while starting) to fix an unrelated iPhoto problem. I then rebooted. Since then, my Finder has been crashing and restarting every two seconds or less. This is happening in all of my users. I tried deleting the com.apple.finder.plist but I'm not able to surf to it in time before Finder crashes again. What do I do? Thanks!

I had this same problem. I used to use Dolly Drive. Removing the DollySpaceTools folder did the trick.
Startupdiskname/Library/Application Support/DollySpaceTools
(This was driving me nuts!)
BTW, Dolly Drive has a note on their support page that says they have an update that is Mavericks compatible. I did not have that update installed when I installed Mavericks.

All audio on iphone 4s cuts out, every 10 seconds on every apps then keeps playing.

I have tried all the apps on my phone, and every 10 seconds or so it will cut out the audio for about 1 second, then come back in while the track is still playing. like its pausing it real quick and starting it again, except that it doesnt start back where the audio cut out, it just keeps going. Does this on music player, pandora and every single app on my phone that I have tried. Nothing new was installed on the phone, I have tried cleaning out all ports, doing a hard reset, plugging in and unplugging headphones. I have tried closing all apps and reopening them, and turing on and off the phone. switching between silent mode and messing with volume doesnt help. On pandora every time it happens, the volume level bar at the bottom pops up. all other apps there is no visual sign it is happening. it never pauses and audio comes back after a split second. No new music or anything, has worked fine for almost a year now, just started today. Side note, it plays ringtones from calls just fine, but if i listen to them in the sounds section it still cuts out. iphone 4s model a1387

One thing that helped was getting a toothbrush and scrubbing the dock connector on the phone. I scrubbed the connector and used compressed air for about 1/2 hour till the connector looked much cleaner. An Apple employee told me that the pins on the phone had a little corrosion and sand. The problem hasn't gone away completely, but has been significantly reduced. I'm going to hold out until my contract expires after which time I'll switch to an iPhone5 (or newer) or Android phone.

I have the same issue with mine. I discovered it because my MacBook Pro 2010 i7 will not fall asleep on its own. I've had this happen before and it was a process continuously trying to communicate with a licensing server (OnOne's Photoshop plugins). They've since fixed that (and it's a different licensing service). So when my machine stopped falling asleep again I loaded up Console and found this new thing restarting every 10 seconds which I'm guessing is what is causing my computer not to fall asleep.
Tried the uninstall via Terminal and get this:
launchctl: Couldn't stat("com.aladdin.hasplmd.plist"): No such file or directory
nothing found to unload
launchctl: Couldn't stat("com.aladdin.aksusbd.plist"): No such file or directory
nothing found to unload
It's wierd. It's like I don't even have it installed if the Terminal commands had no effect. Wonder what could be trying to call it.
Dug around for about two/three hours on the net and through my system trying to figure out what software might be causing this and have come up with nothing.
