Re: Screen Freezes while typing

Maybe someone can help me here. I ran into problems the last couple of days when I am typing the computer screen freezes for a few seconds,then it will blink,and let me type a few lines then does it again. I also noticed it does it sometimes when I'm visiting a news site,and going from link to link. I did run a disk cleanup,but that didn't help. I'm using a Satellite A105-S2716,and I have Windows XP-Home. I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what may be happenning..Thank you for your help...

when I am typing the computer screen freezes for a few seconds..
Which applications does this occur in?
Only a browser, for instance? If so, which browser and version do you use?

My iPhone freezes while typing

Hello
My iphone 6 plus freezes while typing. doesn't matter if I'm typing a text message or a URL the problem is everywhere. My collegue at my work has the same problem. I can still continue to type when it freezes, and when it unfreeze the letters are filled in like there's no tomorrow. It all started with iOS 8
It doesn't matter if it is Swedish layout or English layout on the keyboard.
best regards Jonas

Hello Lim,
To get in the horizontal and enlarged keyboard of the iPhone, simply hold the iPhone or iDevice in a horizontal manner. The gyroscope in the device will automatically sense this and will make the keyboard horizontal.
P.S You could tell us the app you are using unless you are using the the default SMS/ Mail app, because some apps do not support the horizontal keyboard.

Iphone5 screen freezes while checking messages

I have a problem with my iphone 5; it's quite common that the screen freezes while i'm checking my text messages... It doesn't stay that way very long, just a couple of seconds (like 10 sec maybe)... And then it goes back to normal...
It perfectly works with other apps though... Has anyone had that problem before? Do you know what should be done? Should i take my phone to the Apple store?
thanks !

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

Screen freezes while recording video.

Screen freezes while recording. I'm recording a video from Safari 7.1 using Quick Time Player 10.3 in OS10.9.5. The picture freezes after about an hour and a quarter. I'm using SoundFlower to capture the audio; the audio continues to flow and record while the picture remains static.

Hi again, I have found a solution for this! Go to the video in your iTunes library, and right click. Go to "Options" and then uncheck "Remember playback position". Once I did this the videos all played fine on my iPod.. they just won't keep track of where you left off. Hope this helps you both as well!

N70 Screen flickers while typing message

Hello:
I have bought Nokia N70 Music Edition 3 days back but i am noticing that the screen flickers while typing the message.
The screen flickering that occurs while typing a msg does not occur when i m using any of the nokia builtin themes...but when i m using the themes which i have downloaded from www.zedge.net, the flickering while typing msg takes place...i had installed the themes in mem card, but i have also tried installing them to phone and then checking the theme, but still the flickering occurs. The theme installation puts some application called OWN SKIN ANIMATOR in the startup of my mobile. It has something to do with the animation of the theme, although i have tried exiting the application and then testing the msg flickering, and it STILL occurs ...can u please suggest a solution or tell me some good themes or a good site to download themes for N70 ME.
P.S. I have been downloading themes from www.zedge.net for quite a long time and it has never created any problems on my previous phones i.e. Nokia 5200 and 6300

My IPad freezes while typing emails. Touchscreen keyboard as well as Bluetooth keyboard. How do I fix this?

It may certainly matter that the account is IMAP. Try the following variation of the procedure to re-create the index:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is stored.
3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
4. Move the “IMAP-” account folder to the Trash. Note that you can do this with IMAP-type accounts because they store mail on the server and Mail can easily re-create them. DON’T trash any “POP-” account folders, as that would cause all mail stored there to be lost.
5. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index -- Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
6. As a side effect of having removed the IMAP account folder, that account may be in an “offline” state now. Do Mailbox > Go Online to bring it back online.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

Skype freezes while typing at random times. Window...

I'm using Windows 8 Pro (64-bit), along with the desktop version (not the app). But I also recall having a bit of trouble with this on my laptop (Windows 7 home edition 64-bit) as well.
At random times in the middle of my typing, Skype will freeze. It will remain frozen for a few minutes. When this happens, I usually just minimize it and do something else and check back on it to see if it's working. It always unfreezes, I haven't had a crash yet. However, this is getting to be very annoying. It happens rather frequently and interrupts my chat with friends.
I have already made sure that skype is not running in ADMIN or DEBUG mode, etc etc. I'm also using the latest version of Skype.
What could be causing this? And how might I be able to fix it?

Win 8.1
Using the Desktop version because, well, the modern version is unworkably stupid in too many ways to express.
30-60 second random freezes while typing. No crash. And call still work.
These type of Microsoft FAILS can surely drive a person to insanity.
Why do simple applications like these reduce in performance year after year wile doubling in file size many times over?
Years with this issue occuring and no solution from Skype. I am beyond words

TB freezes while typing in email address

While typing the address in the to: box, thunderbird freezes.
I am on Ubuntu 14-04, thunderbird 31.5.0. The behavior happens periodically and also in safemode. It seems to be when i pause typing and it tries to look up the address in my address book.
It looks like the same issue as https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1013192, but that question is closed.

I looked at the question you referenced. Do you have a large address book as 'tektite' did (over 5000)? I can give you a link to the daily version for Ubuntu if you would like to try it. (I run on Ubuntu 14.04 also).

Ipad screen freezes while listening to music

this problem has occurred several times since i upgraded to IOS5 and basically when i am listening to music and want to change playlist or genre,etc... the screen freezes and it will not let me change to what i selected.Whatever i'm listening to that's it unless i go and restore ipad to it's original settings and then it works well until down the road it decides to freeze and must perform restore again.
Please help.Thx.

Ok,i am replying to my question and i have found the solution!
I had set my auto lock to never and when i changed the auto lock to 15 minutes all my problems went away.It's been a week and my problem with the screen going black and not beign able to make any changes while listening to the music app has not come back.
Hopefully whomever reads this and has the same problem just follow my example and you should be fine.
Good luck

TS3367 why does my screen freeze while using face time?

Why does my screen freeze on my iphone 4 while using face time? I am connected to wi-fi and internet is working fine.

Is your iPhone storage capacity full or close to it?
Try a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release. A reset is similar to computer restart.

Screen Flickers while typing!

I bought my Z3 last week from Sony World, Indira Nagar, Bangalore! Having a worst experience in my life with a Sony product. The problem I'm getting is a flickering screen which completely goes white-blank with colour grains while typing. This is happened about not less than 10 times while typing this message so far. This is there from the first day itself. I thought it's a one off. This is happening consistently! It is happening whichever place I go. Please provide a solution or replace my Z3 in good faith. I!very been a Sony Phone user since year 2000. I've spend about Rupees 50,000K, in India it's a lot of money. To give you a perspective, This is a moths Salary of an average middle class person. Kindly act fast and with sensitivity! Expecting a quick response. Sincerely Reghu

IPod touch 4g keeps freezing while typing

(iPod touch 4th gen, three weeks old). Seriously I'm getting so angry, it freezes whenever I try to type, or to type a simple 2/3 lined message will take MINUTES. It's like my keyboard can't think fast enough. It's not just iMessage it's anything involving typing. (internet, facebook, twitter, whatever). Yes I've restarted it many times. One time recently it went all crazy and tried to restart several times, randomly restarting and struggling to turn back on while I just let it sit there. Then it froze on my lock screen (couldn't even go dark) and wouldn't play music, even though the play button was pressed.
I know all about shutting background apps and I've tried turning iMessage off and on again, deleting my inbox, checking too make sure my iPod has enough memory left and isn't overloaded (7.2 GB available and 6.5 being used) and my software is up-to-date with the iOS 6.1.3
PLEASE help me, I am so frustrated!
Also, I've done a lot of searching before asking a question, so I'll be slightly ****** if it's just that llaass guy telling me to restore it

Iphone 6 freezing while typing

Occasionally and enough to be very annoyed, my iPhone 6 has been freezing up on me while i am typing. The only way to fix it has been to shut down and restart, is anyone else having this problem? Do you know if the problem is being addressed. Any feedback would be appreciated! Thank you.

Try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Keyboard Dictionary.
then a reset (pressing Home & Sleep/Wake button till the Apple Logo appears.)

Chromium freezes while typing in the omnibar

KDE base runtime 4.8.0-1
Chromium 17.0.963.46-1
AdBlock Plus 1.2
If multiple tabs are open, typing into the omni-bar will sometimes cause chromium to freeze after a few keystrokes. Removing the ~/.config/chromium directory, thereby resetting the profile, seems to make the problem go away. But allowing the profile to sync again makes the problem show up again. So it seems to be a corrupted profile, but the directory structure under .config/chromium is massive, so I don't know what exactly is causing the issue.
Running chromium under strace shows the following at the time of the freeze:
rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, NULL, {0x7f3bade5dbf0, [], SA_RESTORER, 0x7f3ba97db270}, 8) = 0
clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD, child_tidptr=0x7f3bad55abd0) = 20490
wait4(20490,
If I kill -9 20490, the child process mentioned in the clone() syscall, chromium resumes and continues to function normally. Upon doing so, the strace log continues with:
[{WIFSIGNALED(s) && WTERMSIG(s) == SIGKILL}], 0, NULL) = 20490
--- {si_signo=SIGCHLD, si_code=CLD_KILLED, si_pid=20490, si_status=SIGKILL, si_utime=11, si_stime=19} (Child exited) ---
rt_sigreturn(0x11) = 20490
I suspect there is some kind of race condition involved, because the problem seems to happen less frequently when chromium is running under strace (and therefore slowed down by all the logging going on).
I am right now running on a recently-reset profile that is only syncing Passwords and Extensions. I manually imported my Bookmarks via an HTML export. I've only been using chromium for a couple of hours since that last reset, but it hasn't locked up yet.
I've looked at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=129632 already, and it seems to be very similar to my situation but remains unsolved. Also, Chromium has exhibited this behavior across updates to the kernel, KDE, and Chromium itself. So I don't think it's a version-related issue that will just go away.
Can anyone make any suggestions on where to go next? I'm new to Arch Linux and KDE, so some obvious things are often Big News to me, but I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty. TIA for any ideas or suggestions.

Screen vibrates while typing emails

When typing a new message in Yahoo (using Safari to access YahooMail), the screen shrinks and enlarges with each letter typed, essentially "vibrating" and making it impossible to look at the screen. What's up with that? Just started yesterday.

It took a support phone call and a trip to the Genius Bar at an Apple store and 45 minutes to figure out the problem was being caused by Bluetooth being enabled.
