Strange thing

Hello all,
I have noticed that when I go to a web site I have been previously that some of the links I've clicked on the last time I visited are highlighted (showing I've clicked on them before)
The strange thing is that this is happening on every site I go to, even when my IP address has changed ( by manually rebooting my router I get a new IP addy)
And I have also removed all the cookies at the end of a internet session!
I'm using mozilla WaNcom 1.3.1
all help is appreciated
kindest,beca

  • My Mac is doing strange things: delaying between users, mouse flickering and bouncing, gets stuck with rainbow wheel flickering. I ran the appel hardware test and it detected an error: 4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1233 Does anybody know what that means? HELP!

    My imac is doing strange things:
    -delaying between users: when closing session it goes to blue, then takes a while to appear users signin box, and then wont recognize mouse command to enter until a couple of minutes later... then everything seems alright until....
    -it gets stuck between things, the rainbow wheel appears and its just delays there forever....
    -and every now and then the mouse starts flickering and bouncing wildly onscreen.
    I ran the appel hardware test and it detected an error:

    WZZZ answered about where to get iStat. And do check the SMART status. If it is an overheating problem due to a fan or logic board problem, your hard drive is possibly cooking itself to death. If so it isn't a faulty hard drive even though the hard drive might fail. So assuming it's a temperature problem, even if you are able to repair things on the disk with software, that is working on symptoms, not causes. I could be wrong however.
    RE: AppleCare: Your iMac came with one year of AppleCare (Apple's warranty program), but within the first year you can buy 2 more years. You have to extend by the one year anniversary of purchase of the computer. Your 10,1 is too old to still be in the first year, and since you asked what it was, I'm sure you don't have it. Bottom line meaning is that whatever this problem turns out to be, you'll have to pay for it. Unless there is something like this. It is for 2011 iMacs with certain Seagate drives. You can put in your serial number for fun, but it looks like yours is too old. Lastly, some people have had Apple help them anyway if it is just out of warranty, but many have not. Your machine is one of these. Type in 10,1 in the search box. Is there an Apple Store near you? Just b/c it's out of warranty doesn't mean you shouldn't have it looked at by Apple. But no one here can say at all what Apple will or will not do.
    Hope you get it taken care of!

  • I'm using Apple Mail 2.1.3 on a MacBook running OS 10.4.11. A very strange thing is happening. E-mail messages that I either sent or received months ago are showing up in my mailbox and receivers' mailboxes. Help!

    I'm using Apple Mail 2.1.3 on a MacBook running OS 10.4.11. A very strange thing is happening. E-mail messages that I either sent or received months ago are showing up in my mailbox and receivers' mailboxes. In one case, a message someone had sent to me wound up in the mailbox of a third person, who was not included in the address list!!  I have only two accounts, and have checked everything; only one account is showing the repeats Now, that account is my professional account, and it resides in three places: I use it on the laptop described here, I use it through Apple Mail on the much newer desktop Mac in my office, and I can run it through Web mail on my employer's server, which is where the professional account resides (I have a mailbox there, etc.) That program is called Zimbra.
    My personal account is with Earthlink and is not doing the repeats. I access it either through my MacBook's Apple Mail or the Web; the Apple Mail on my office Mac is not configured to access the Earthlink server.
    What IS going on here?? My friends, colleagues, and students (I teach college) are mystified by these ancient messages.
    Thanks for any help!!

  • Lion and Mavericks (strange things going on)

    Hello everybody,
    I have a 2010 (white) macbook,
    I just installed Mavericks and updated it to 10.9.3. The macbook runs both 10.7 Lion (my main and most important partition) and 10.9, it's a dual boot.
    My partition with Lion is called ''Macintosh HD'' and the one with Mavericks is called ''OS X Mavericks''. (Mavericks is startup partition)
    Now i'm using both together some strange things are happening. First off when i opened Finder in Mavericks it only showed ''Macintosh HD'' like that was the partition Mavericks was installed on, now i've added the right partition in the sidebar of the finder (OS X Mavericks). This was already weird.
    When i went back into Lion everything was fine but it stated indexing ( i guess the mavericks partition ) this annoyed me because i want them to be seperate.
    So I went to settings > Spotlight > Privacy and added ''OS X Mavericks'' so Lion stopped indexing that part of my harddrive.
    When I went into Mavericks again, the spotlight on Mavericks was indexing and then randomly stopped. I went in to Setting > Spotlight and Privacy again.
    Only now in Mavericks. Guess what: in privacy ''OS X Mavericks'' partition was added.
    Is Mavericks reading from the wrong partition??
    Is spotlight running between two OS X versions?
    How can i make sure Mavericks is reading info from the right partition?
    It would be very nice if someone could tell me more about this..
    Thanks in advance !!

    I remember when Lion first came out, I installed a second Lion partiton and had issues similar to this. The MAS failed to work at all in the new Lion partition until I removed the original.
    I suspect there is something with Lion that only likes one OS X per drive.
    You might need to install Mavericks on an external drive rather than the second partition.

  • To import photos from Iphone to mac is a strange thing.

    There are different ways to import the Iphone pictures to the mac but the result is a strange thing.
    1. way over the osx tool digital pictures. result with osx Lion 1.1 GB (with the osx Lion it is 3.8 GB with the same Iphone and pictures)
    2. way with Iphoto with both osx exactly the same size.
    Can someone explain me this strange thing?
    cheers

    Hello ALWright17
    Try using Image Capture to see if they will import using that program. If it does then you drag and drop on top of iPhoto. If they do not then there may be an issue with the photos. Alternatively you can email the pictures to yourself and then save them to your computer. Check out the articles below for importing and troubleshooting photos that

  • A very strange thing . . .

    Hi all,
    A very strange thing just happened. One track in a project, which has several regions, just stopped playing back! All other tracks play fine. Even the track that stopped playing back, when selected, is still active, i. e., my midi controller still plays the software instrument associated with the track. All of the info is still there; I can see it all in the piano roll, the score . . . everything.
    One clue, which I'm not sure how to describe, is that in the problem track, all of the regions have changed color and now have a little dot in their upper left corner. So, the regions which were all green, the default color, are now gray and green, but have the little dot at the top left.
    Oh, this happened by accident while I was recording on that track. I was attempting to record a new region between two other regions, then suddenly this happened!!
    Anybody know what's going on here?
    Thanks, Joseph

    thanks for the gray tracks thing. I have worked with Performer since 1985. I am having the hardest time simply getting around on logic express. Copying, pasting, setting regions. I record and sometimes it doesn't erase the previous info. I paste a track and it goes to another track. How do I erase measures on one track? Sorry for the lack of clarity in this question but the manual has been hard to understand. COuld I call you? I know the answers are easy. I don't see the logic in logic. Any help would be appreciated. [email protected]

  • Very strange thing after 10.7.3 update?

    Very strange thing after 10.7.3 update?
    Everything seems to be working normal except the desk top BBC iPlayer which plays fine in a small window but when you go to full screen still plays the sound but the screen just goes black, no video?
    I thought maybe the update knocked off one of the plugins or players but reinstalled iPlayer and same problem, anyone got a workaround or suggestion as to how I can fix it, am I the only one?
    Full screen YouTube works fine.
    Everything else seems ok, maybe running a little hotter and the fans are kicking in a little sooner but does feel a little snappier.
    Thanks
    Phil

    Seems like they are on it

  • Strange things showing up in navigation addresses and say they are from an ex. How is this possible?

    strange things keep showing up in navigation( short notes from ex) and instead of current location it has his name. How is this possible?

    Did you check your trash? If you dont empty it it will fill up and cause your HD to fill up even though you think you have removed some stuff.
    You should get a small program called "whatsize". Do a google and download it.
    Running it will show you what is filling up your HD and I believe that you can remove files with whatsize.
    good luck,
    frank

  • Strange things with keyboard

    strange things with keyboard happens on my macbook - after cleaning keyboard (rag with spirit) I start mac and get sticky key (continuously type one letter and beeping on speaker). I shutdown mac, remove key and clean space under it... it helps - but I found other strange bug:
    pressing left shift - gives me capital letter "O"
    letter "O" - always capitalized
    | symbol always comes with return button
    now I use external keyboard - all good on it... but macbook keyboard still wont work properly
    what can it be? how fix it?
    ps: sorry for my eng

    thanks for your reply, and you might be right about using USB v2.0. The PS/2-USB adapters I am using are v.1.0 so may be incompatible, even though this technology is supposed to be backward-compatable.
    Since this problem reared its ugly head, I have disabled the Toshiba applications and monitored the situation - OK so far, but I will keep an eye on it.

  • Strange things happen: mail disappears/appears/is shown wrong

    Strange things happen: mail appears in "drafts"/mail disappears after "send"/title-content doesn't match
    I'm having some Problems with mails that get worse and worse
    First thing I remember is, that I found mails in "Drafts" that weren't drafts, but just mails I received or mails I sent.
    They were kind of aliasses of the original. Deleting them in "Drafts" deleted the original in its Mailbox too.
    Re-indexing Mail (removing the envelope.index files etc.) fixes it, but it reappears very soon
    Next thing:
    When I send an email, it happens sometimes, that it is not send (no sending sound, no copy in the "Sent"-Folder). It just "disappears"
    Re-indexing Mail fixes this: When Mail is ready with reindexing, it sends those messages (kind of funny, when I do this reindexing after some weeks... kind of...) - but it will reappear
    The third thing happens more seldom:
    When I klick on the emails name in the list, I get another Mail shown in the Previewbox. Doubleklicking the mail shows the wrong mail too.
    Re-indexing fixes this, - but it will reappear
    Well after having re-indexd my Mail library 10 times this week, I want another solution for this...
    Mail Version etc:
    Mail: Version 3.5 (930.3)
    1 Pop account,
    1 .mac account (i don't use)
    Mail, after being sent, is moved to "Sent"mail never to be deleted
    Mails Spam Filter is active (and working fine, by the way)
    about 80 Mailboxes for old Mails I got, partially nested
    More than 4000 Mails in the whole Database
    Things I've already done:
    Reindexing mail, as I already wrote (Quit mail, removing the files "Envelope Index" and "Envelope Index-1", and the folder starting with "Mac-", then start Mail again, that tells me to klick "ok" for reimporting the mail)
    I deleted a bunch of emails with attachements, so there are just a few with attachment now.
    I emptied the "Sent" folder and put those old emails in 3 Folders (each of them is containing about 500 mails now)
    Thanks for your help in advance
    PS: Yes, I want to keep all these old mails...

    This is not a security risk - a setting change you should make.
    1.     Take a look in settings - i message and see what the 'recieve at' addresses are declared.  If you do not want to see phone messages on the pad, clear that number out of there - and just use your e mail address.
    2.     Since you used to have an i phone, that device is likely still registered   go to your i tunes account and de register the device.

  • Addressbooksync wants to connect to strange things

    Little Snitch keeps alerting me that addressbooksync wants to connect to all kind of strange things. It looks like anything can request access to this and "spy" to my address book?
    I read a number of posts about addressbooksync having problems, but couldn't find any other post about how it tries to access all kind of strange url's. See below picture, the list is much longer then that. It mostly pops up when I am browsing through safari.

    Thanks those are helpful - I can also see the activity in my router logs, but this is easier!
    I just got another one that's a bit mystic as well since I have NO Microsoft anything on my 2011 Mini... BUT it looks like some kind of System process...
    "netbiosd"
    wants to connect to 10.xx.1.xx on TCP port 445 (microsoft-ds)
              IP Address          10.xx.1.xx
              Established by          /usr/sbin/netbiosd
              User          _netbios (UID: 222)
      Process ID          185"
    I am running a Seagate Dockstar (Pogoplug) on the LAN sharing a media drive via SMB.
    My router is a Linsys/Cisco E2000 with no Apple hardware on the network other than a couple of iPads and a MacBookPro on the WLAN.  Also a couple of TiVos, and AppleTV1 (patched) and sometimes cell phones.
    I haven't run down the IDs on all the MAC addresses completely yet - but I've got about 12 devices showing up that I need to identify.  4 are still yet to figue out.
    Could an ID like 10.xx.1.xx  have something to do with file sharing maybe?  Dropbox? Elgato Syncmate?  etc.  I do have those running.

  • Very strange thing happening

    I developed a spreadsheet today and had a very strange thing happen while I was working in Numbers.
    Every minute or so Stuffit Expander would open and expand a file and place it on my computer. It started out as a quick flash on the screen and would be gone in an instant. I saw that it was being made by Stuffit so I opened up Stuffit and went into Prefs and told Stuffit to ask before expanding the file. This, then, stopped the process so I could see what was going on.
    A folder was make called "[file name].numbersFolder"
    Inside the folder are two files called: "buildVersionHistory.plist" and "index.xml". Along with these files is a "QuickLook" folder that has a thumbnail of the spreadsheet I am working on inside.
    The xml file is large and has several URL's embedded including the Apple developer site (http://developer.apple.com/namespaces/sfa).
    Can anyone tell me what is going on here.
    Looks fishy to me!

    If I recall, this is StuffIt expanding what it thinks is a ZIP file. It is correct, in a way, but you don't want it to do that. I do not have StuffIt so I do not know what settings it has. Hopefully it has one along the lines of "automatically unzip zip files" and you can turn it off.

  • 2 bugs.. and some strange things..

    Hi, i use my new iphone 5 since a weekswith  iOS 6.1.4, and so far i found to bugs, first bug, i'am most of the time on Airplane mode (for my convenience..) if someone let me a voicemail and after i  listen it when i go back to Airplane mode i have a red icon just like i have a new Voicemail un listened, i get out of airplane mode and no more voicemail, i can do that many time alway red icon on airplane mode and in fact no new voicemail when not in airplane mode..
      Ieven try to delete the voicemail i have listen but i still have this red icon on voicemail and i go on airplane mode.. only 2 solutions for now, go on deleted voicemail and delete them from recycle bin, or a Real iPhone reboot (press 10 sec on start button...) i never had this problem on older iOS version on my iPhone 4..
    Second bug, i get sometime since 2 weeks i have a almost black screen, then i go on general > brightness and wallpapper and i see that brightness become set to almost 0, so i move the cursor to around 80 %, next day again same thing, so i uncheck auto adjustment and now it work, auto adjustment is cool and alway worked fine on my old version iOS on iphone 4, if you can fix that..
    Also as i talk to you (hope you read ;-) some impression, i prefer by Far the old Keypadto make a dial compare to new one who look B@d to me...
    each time i get our of airplane mode i have for 2 sec (no network, then he find, before he searched and then say no network if it's true, in fact i have more bad network and safari won't find any connection with my new iphone (same operator (SFR)
    I feel the battery of my iphne 5 get used more fast then the one on my iphone 4....,
    Thank's

    / isnt full, there is like 4gb free space...
    and i made a mistake, /sbin/shutdown was there, but when i typed "shutdown -h now" it says that "shutdown" is an unknown command. (i just had that error again!). root uses bash as default shell... it didnt work in tty, it didnt work in urxvt, this time i typed /sbin/shutdown -h now and that worked... but its still not like it should be. And it doesnt explain the random corruption of packages...
    EDIT:
    Same problem with any other files out of /sbin...  the strange thing is, in /etc/profile, $PATH looks like this:
    /bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/bin:/home/jan/bin:/usr/local/bin
    but echo $PATH gives me:
    ./:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin

  • Strange thing when moving files

    Since upgrading to lion have had no problems but today a really strange thing happened when moving a file by drag and drop to a usb stick.
    Dragged and dropped the file no problem then dropped the stick to unmount it.
    Removed the stick ok, then when looking at the desktop the stick was still there and the file was still over the stick.
    The only way i could get rid of these ghost files was to reboot.
    It happened everytime i did this
    Any idea what maybe happening.
    I tried to drag and drop the ghost files in the bin but they would not move

    Hi,
    this sounds like a customer support case. I am not sure this can be solved on the forum unless some other users have the same problem and know how to work around it. If this is due to a platform bug then the only solution is customer support to get this fixed.

  • Help needed to figure out a strange thing

    I am running GJ and Java 1.4 on window 2k and I have been spending hours trying to figure out what's wrong with the following codes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The code is simplified (doesn't use any util class at all), but it still throws runtime exception:
    C:\test>java D
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AbstractMethodError: E.test()LE;
    at C.test(C.java:1)
    at D.main(D.java:17)
    The strange thing is that, when I change the name of class E to B, it runs fine. It seems that classes B and C have to be ordered. For example, using name C1 and C2 will be fine, but using C2 and C1 throws exception. It's getting late and I am tired.
    public interface A {
    public A test();
    public abstract class E implements A {
    public abstract E test();
    public abstract class C extends E {
    public C() {}
    // the main class
    import java.io.*;
    public class D extends C {
    public D() {
    super();
    public D test() {
    System.out.println("D called");
    return new D();
    public static void main(String[] agrs) {
    A obj = new D();
    obj.test();

    Its a bug. The compiler neglected to generate a required bridge method.
    I have reported 4821489 for this problem.
