Screen keeps resizing

I just bought a refurbished Ipad and it keeps resizing forno good reasons. It makes it impossible to do anything because it is resizinglike 5 times a second. Any help?

It may be this ....
You may have Zoom on... double tap with three fingers to turn it off. Go into Settings > General > Accessibility to disable it.
If that isn't it - reset the iPad.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Finder list view name column keeps resizing!

I mainly use list view in Finder, and I mainly use windows (as opposed to fullscreen) because I like dragging and dropping between them (dragging and dropping in fullscreen with tabs is rather cumbersome).
Anyway, the name column keeps resizing on me, going from what I have it set to (usually double-clicked to make it fit all filenames) to suddenly being small enough that all the other columns fit in the window without a horizontal scroll bar. This has been happening ever since I upgraded to Yosemite and happens every time I open a new Finder window, expand a folder, move a file, etc. It's incredibly frustrating!
I was surprised to not find much about this problem mentioned around the web, so I imagine it must be some setting or something specific to my machine. Any help in figuring out how to make it stop doing this would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

Sorry, no, preferences in the sense of what I prefer, but I believe view options (command J) are stored in DS_Store files, as well as list view column data, such as date added, date modified, name, kind, size, etc (except for some folders such as network, computer and meetingroom/airdrop?) which are stored in com.apple.finder.plist). You probably know that you can select which columns display in view options. Perhaps a temporary workaround would be to switch off other visible columns to display only name or name and one other preferred column to increase space available. However, myself and another suspect this the problems I described as a bug, and I would have to think your issue is part of that bug. It seems all related, no? For example, in my Downloads folder, I select to hide "Date Modified", show "Date Added", and arrange by "Date Added". Maybe it will still show if I close the window and reopen the Downloads folder, maybe it will not, maybe it will change completely to Icon View despite have "always open in list view" being selected in view options. In any case, after a restart, it will revert back to list view, with "Date Modified" showing and being arranged by "Name".
Sent feedback to apple, maybe will help if you do as well:

Satellite A300 screen keeps jumping up and down

Hi,
What is on my screen keeps jumping up and down, any thoughts, is this a problem with video card in Satellite A300?

I have tried to install the display driver from the European website. During uninstallation I got a messgae to say failures occurred during uninstallation, and then during installation I got the message of Install package failure!
I have my external monitor now connected to laptop, but in personalising display settings, I cannot get my computer to recognise that I have two monitors now, as both keep coming up with number 1 (Multiple Monitors) on ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650, and they both have that degraded view, a bit like in safe mode.
So in checking of device manager under display adapters I have:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650
and under Sound, video and game controllers I have:
High Definition Audio Device
Realtek High Definition Audio
In this whole process I deleted a file that was previously here called
ATI HMD...
should I resinstall this?
So I'm not sure if the new display driver has been installed? help.

Why does my screen keep dimming and brightening?

I'm just sitting here in front of my fire during a mid-March snow storm in Maine, and my screen keeps dimming and then brightening. It's getting quite annoying. What is going on?

OK, I figured it out - it's the auto brightness adjustment. Found the answer in the pane to the right of my comment.

I updated to iTunes 11 on my Windows PC. Since the update, when I open iTunes its window is too large for my screen. Resizing is a pain, because I have to change my screen resolution. And when I restart iTunes,it has reverted back to being too large.Help!

I recently updated to iTunes 11 on my Windows PC. Since the update, each time I open iTunes its window is too large for my screen. Resizing it is a pain, because I have to change my screen resolution. And then when I restart iTunes, it has reverted back to being too large. Please help!

Having the same issue here....a quick fix is to just minimize the window, and immediately maximize it. It will now fit the screen. Trouble is, after you close it, you'll have to do it again when you re-start itunes. The good news is it takes all of about 2 seconds. Apple should fix this. Should.

Desktop screen keeps flashing black and dock has disappeared. iMAC X Yosemite 10.10.1

Recently I updated my iMac to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. All was operating smoothly for a few weeks until one day i started up and logged in my dock was nowhere to be seen. The desktop screen started flashing black replacing my desktop image. None of my desktop icons disappear when this happens. screen keeps flashing black every few seconds. Also the dock has disappeared.
I have restarted in safe boot and it makes no changes.

Please help!

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Screen keeps jumping up and down but only when using firefox-so not a hardware problem

The screen keeps jumping randomly up and down but nothing is being touched or pressed. The screens can be email, you tube, bank or general internet screens, or even trying to create this page

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Screen Keeps Freezing & Sleep Wake issues

I have a 17" Macbook Pro and the screen keeps freezing. The computer doesnt freeze because when i depress the volume buttons i can still hear the beeps or when i hit F8 music from my itunes starts to play.
Also, 60% of the time when my computer goes to sleep I get a blank screen when i try to wake it. When this happens i have to close the screen for about 2 mins until the computer re-falls asleep. Once this happens I can then wake it up.
any ideas on the causes of these two issues?

Hello
> he told me that the laptop is pretty warm.
Probably this happens due a higher internal temperature
Did your friend already clean the notebook?

Ipad mini screen keeps moving around as though someone else is fiddling with it while I am using it. Any ideas what is goi g on?

Hi Deeveeay,
Try resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). When the Home screen redisplays, see if the issue has resolved itself.
Cheers,

Lenovo z50 screen keeps going black

I've had it for around 6 months with no problems, then in the last 48 hours, the screen keeps going black when I'm using it. It happens every 20-30 minutes. If I close the laptop lid and open it again, it works fine until the problem comes up again. I've tried downloading updates and placing a fan by it, but it keeps happening. Any ideas?

My imac screen keeps loading at the log in page

I cannot log in my account. The screen keeps loading at the log in page, even i try to reinstall the OS X. The imac cannot read the CD and keeps stay at the log in page. What is the problem?

This really is something to take up with a local Apple retail store or Premium re-seller. They will examine it and quote you a repair or replacement price. This is usually done without charge. Without knowing exactly what is wrong a guestimate would be worthless to you.
