Screen wake time and brightness resets itself

I did run the Xperia Connect to switch different scenario of work and sleep, but everytime it runs, the brightness and wake up display is always resetting itself to default. I had to re-enable it again to the setting I've previously sets. Please help to resolve, cause it's getting annoying.

When I turn my ipod on why does the screen stay blank and then turn itself off?

When I turn my ipod on the normal start up screen appears with the apple logo in the middle, but then after a few seconds the screen goes blank and it turns itself off. It was working fine the other day. I even charged it overnight to make sure that it wasnt because it was out of battery. I dont know what to do, it has over 600 songs on it and around 300 photos, I know that the memory isnt full because I checked the other day and it said I had around 1GB left. I cant do anything on at all because the screen just goes blank and then turns itself off. Please help, thank you

Well, I strongly suspect that a gig isn't quite enough "extra" storage to allow operation.
However, first, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

It is not even swiched off. the button in the right above side caanot do it. Could you please, help me as soon as possible.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.

Time and date reset bug

Sherwin,
Those symptoms indicate that you need to get your backup (PRAM) battery replaced.If your computer does not retain parameter RAM (PRAM) settings when it is turned off, this generally indicates that the battery needs to be changed.;~)

You messed up the settings on your phone and you say IT is a piece of crap? The phone is doing exactly what you told it to do. If that isn't what you meant see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3577

6280 Time and date reset screen goes blank

Whenever I turn my 6280 off at night when I switch it on the next morning the time goes back to 00:00 and the date doesnt change automatically. Called up 3 and they werent much help at all just said to switch auto update of date and time on which I did and it didnt make any difference!!!! Has anyone else had any probs like this?
Also my phone occasionally cuts out either when I am on the internet or just when I am using it. The screen goes blank and then after a couple of seconds it comes back again. Apparently there is a firmware upgrade for the phone and the version I have at the moment is 3.36 does anyone have any idea where I can get this from??

Why will my ipod play a song or two and then reset itself?

Earlier, I had an issue with synchronizing my iPod to iTunes - it kept freezing up. I reset and restored the iPod, then I re-installed iTunes and I finally was able to transfer music. Now, the iPod will play a song or two, then the music stops and the black "apple" logo shows up on the screen and resets itself. What's going on here? It is the 8gb iPod Nano Black.

As you have tried all the usual things like a reset and restore, it sounds like it needs service.
You can arrange online service here.
Service request.
Just a thought. You've checked to see if it's a bad song file?

Iphone5 touch screen lost control and went crazy itself

I had my iphone5 for two weeks. The 2nd day after I had it I started to feel sometimes my touch screen commands were not very responsive. The 3rd day when I was using it with Safari, I totally lost control with the phone. Touch screen commands generated itself. The phone zoomed in automatically, keyboard poped out and started inputing itself with "," , "1", etc. I went to home screen, apps randomly launched itself and the pull down menu kept pulling itself half way. I had turned off and on the phone and the same things still happening. Ended up I restored my phone and it was ok initially. But everyday I felt the non-responsiveness getting more severe and eventually the phone started to go crazy from time to time for a brief moment. Today it completely lost control same as the first time it happened again. I restored it immdiately with itunes and on the initial configuration screen, I cannot even input the wifi password as it input itselfs with random numbers. I can certainly take it to apple store but it seems the problem is intermittant.
Anyone with iphone 5 have similar problem?

I had the same issue with my iPhone 4S. When I kept my finger on the touch screen to scroll, the content was jumping up and down. Sometimes I could hold my finger 3mm above the screen and it activated wildly buttons. In short the touch function has gone crazy. The Apple support could not help.
I suspected that it comes from an over sensitivity.
I put then a screen protection film on (which reduces the sensitivity) and the problem disappeared.

HP laptop says "no bootable device" for weeks at a time and then fixes itself

Hello,
I am a college student. I have an HP pavillion laptop that I boughtin 2009- I do not currently know the exact product name because the IT center of my school has it. It crashed in 2010 and was found to have come with a faulty hard drive, and the hard drive was replaced. Ever since then, once in a while it will get a blue screen (the same blue screen I got the first time it crashed) and then whenever I try to turn the computer on it says "No Bootable Device." It will give me this error message for days or weeks at a time, and then all of a sudden it will start working again without having lost any information.
I have brought it to the IT center at my school twice. The first time they gave it back and said there was nothing wrong with it. This time, I was very insistent that there was something wrong and explained the problem in detail. I got a call today and they told me that they ran tests on the hard drive, and it's working fine, and they cant do anything else. They also said they could try reformatting it if I bring in the discs that it came with, but my dad told me that means I will lose everything on my hard drive.
I'm hoping there will be a simple solution that I can do whenever I get this error message but I'm guessing there won't be. I apologize in advance because I really don't know much about computers so I may have trouble understanding computer jargon..
Thanks!

Without knowing the product involved it is hard to help. You are correct there is likely no magic bullet if you are getting "no bootable device" other than shutting it down and trying to boot again. A 2009 laptop is now 4 years old and that is about the expected life of a laptop although this one seems to have been snakebit from the start.
Ask the IT Center exactly how they tested the hard drive. I am suspecting you have one of the ill-fated dv6000 or dv9000 series models which have heat related issues and high failure rates, but won't know until you provide the model number.

Time and date reseting - Faulty charger? Please help!

Hi,
I have a macbook pro (summer 2011 model). My charger broke so I bought a cheaper, non branded replacement online as my husband has a macbook and has the same replacement charger for around one year and never had any problems. While waiting for my replacement to arrive, when charging my macbook with my husbands charger, it completely cut out, totally dead! When I turned it back on the date had reset to 2000 and I got an error message that reads something like, "The date and time have been resest to a date before 2001. Some applications may not perform correctly....." - something along those lines!
Today my new, non-branded charger arrived and the same thing has happened 4 times. If it wasn't for the fact that this has only ever happened when being charged with one of these AND 4 times today with the new one, I would have thought the two not connected. But now I am convinced.
I must add that for a period of a week befor my charger arrived I borrowed a friends Apple charger as my husband needed to take his to work.
So my macbook never had this problem before, then it occured when using my husbands charger, then was fine for a week with an apple charger and has now happened again with the new one!
Has anyone else had this problem? Is it the charger that is the problem or something in my macbook that is somehow being triggered by the charger?? Any info would be greatly appreciated!
I know that I should have just bought a proper Apple charger to start with but c'est la vie!
Thanks,
Kirby

With my friends apple charger eveything was totally normal. Her family all have macs from different years so i'm not sure which charger she will have leant me (i'm guessing it would probably be quite a modern one though as they always have up-to-date kit!).
My husband has an old macbook, from roughly 2006/2007, the charger he is using now I bought from amazon quite a while ago. As I mentioned, he has had no problems with it but I did. Before I had these problems I re-ordered the same charger for me as it had been pretty good.
So my macbook pro was fine with a proper apple charger, then it broke and i ordered a new non-apple charger, in the meantime borrowed my husbands non-apple charger a couple of times and my computer kept cutting out. Then borrowed a friends proper apple charge and had no problems at all for a whole week. Then today my new non-apple charger shows up and so far my macbook pro has cut out 3/4 times when plugged in. Totally fine when unplugged.
Thanks for your response, I hope this is clear!

Time and date reset to 2001 with Mac-Mini

Hi all,
I am a newbie with Mac, I just got a new mac-mini some weeks ago from Apple store. Everything is ok, except that, when I start my mac-mini, the time is reset and the date is reset to year 2001. I first saw that settings were to start with a network device, so I changed it and set to start from hard disk. Doing this, I pressed "restart", and it worked, the time and date were no longer changed. However, if the mac-mini stays for some hours turned off, the next time I start it it resets again the date and time, and it alerts me that with this new time&date settings some programs may not work well. So I need everytime to go to time&date setting and to change manually them, which is indeed annoying.
How can I set definitely time&date, and why does the mac-mini resets them?
Thanks
mac-mini early 2006

Hi,
thanks for your answer.
I would eliminate the second option, cause it does not seem to go into shutdown, and moreover I have other PCs which do not suffer from power supply issues.
I asked a pc-shop and was told that maybe the small battery inside the motherboard is over and need to be changed. Is it possible? The mac-mini is just come out from the factory!
If your first option is true, I am afraid I need to send it to assistance at Apple!
Thanks a lot
Bye

Login password doesn't work (and repeatedly resets itself)

I've run across an odd problem maintaining my in-laws' Mac Mini running OS X Tiger (10.4.11). From time to time, one of the user (non-admin) accounts seems to lose its password--if I type the correct password in to log in, it's rejected. (Yes, it's the correct password, and, no, caps lock is not on.) Every time this occurs, it always happens to the same user account. I haven't been able to figure out any other way to restore access to the problematic account than logging in to an admin account to reset the password on the problematic account.
The most puzzling thing is that resetting the password works for a while, but then the problem reoccurs. This has happened at least once or twice a month for several months, and I'd really like to find the underlying issue. Just to rule a couple other things out, I'm sure they aren't changing their password, and I have tried running Disk Utility in the past to repair permissions with no effect.
Any thoughts?

Hi there,
Here is something that might be helpful - reset the password of the user by using your system disk. Put your Tiger CD in the computer and restart. As the computer is restarting, hold down the C key until you see the gray Apple appear. This will begin the "setup" process. Press OK for selecting your language and then at the top, look at Utilities for "Password Reset". Change the password to something you have NEVER used and click Save. Restart and open Keychain Access. Under Edit - click the "Change Password for Keychain" and then reset your password with the same password you used in the "Password Reset". Hope this helps. I've also found that disabling the airport card will usually allow me to login with problem account. First, I would login with Admin account, disable airport, then re-login with "problem account".
