Suddenly my 3GS enlarges the screen OR goes into rearrange mode. What can fix this?
This happened in the blink of an eye. I did a restart, a restore, and nothing is working. The display comes on as normal then takes a slight jump so that some of the display is outside the screen. If I edge to press a button, the screen moves and alows the press, bu then another part of the screen is not visible. The other annoyance is apping the calendar, or the phone, or addresses, or anyhing else will shift the phone into wiggly rearrange mode. I have to press home then tap the icon once again. Sometimes this happens 2x before I get the app to come up. One other thins has started happening, when typing, sometime a letter will hold and a row of variations ofthe letter appear as tabs across the top, like oomlaut, or tilda over theletter or whatever. HELP!!!
Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

hi
I broke the side of my iPad and parts of the screen do not respond....is there an easy way to
fix this ? If I get the screen fixed is it going to respond?Take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Center for an assessment and plan to move forward.
You might expect to pay US$249 plus tax for out-of-warranty service for an iPad 2 if you are in the U.S. -
Firefox goes into glitch mode. Please fix this for a future version.
I am having a problem and had this problem for a really long time. Firefox would enter glitch mode. Here is an example:
http://www.factslides.com/
When I hit the next arrow, it would freeze for a second, and if I hit it multiple times, it would go to another page without me hitting the button. I would like this fixed for a future version.A post was flagged as '''Solved Problem.''' Please remove that flag.
If you don’t, others that can help may not read this post.
Start your '''Computer''' in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try '''Safe''' web sites.

I have had my mac book pro for about a year and a half and suddenly my dvd player will not play DVDs and i can not play alot of things on full screen. Does anybody know how i can fix this?
This could be several things, but let's get the obvious ones out of the way, first:
1. Judging from your text, there's no problem with anything stuck in the mechanism; it's more an issue of no being to put in a disk. In other words, you're sure that there isn't a disk stuck in your MBP. (That happens a lot for all computers.)
2. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility, and repair the disk. This should take under 10 minutes.
3. Perform the procedure outlined here:

4. After you're done, leave a message here as to the status of the repair. -
Hej. I cant tilt the screen om my iPhone 4. What can I do?
Hej. I cant tilt the screen om my iPhone 4. What can I do?
If you tilt the phone then the screen will tilt too! Seriously though, double-click the home button, where the icons appear at the bottom swipe to the right until the music player controls are displayed. At the left is a button with a circular arrow. Yours probably has a padlock symbol in the middle, if so click it so the padlock goes away.

My laptop says it is connected to our wifi but it also says alert: you are not connected to the internet! Does anyone know how I can fix this/has it happened to anyone? Thanks
This usually indicates a problem with your router or cable modem, your ISP's service or cabling outside your house. First thing I'd try is rebooting the router/cable modem (turn it off, wait 1 minute, then turn it back on).

While browsing on safari earlier today I had about 10 tabs open some with YouTube.
I was on a flash website browsing and the system froze and the spinning wheel came Up on the mouse.
I tried to move the mouse to get to the force quit in safari but then the mouse froze too, after a minute I held down the power button and turned off the laptop.
Now I tried to turn it back on, it turns on and loads up as far as the white screen with the grey apple logo and goes no further?
What does this mean, how can I solve it? I'm in panic as all of my school notes are on it, any help or advice would be muh appreciated!Do you have backups of all the data on the startup drive? If not, do nothing else until you've backed up that data, if you still can.

I used to use Movie Maker and it would be able to handle lots of file uploads and big projects. I figure iMovie can do the same since it's newer and it's on my iMac. I was working on a project for a few months, it was working fine up until about a few days ago when the project file just stopped working. Not getting any audio or visuals and the screen went grey. I hope to not lose the project file as I've spent a lot of time on it. The project will still show up in iMovie, but it won't play. Other project files will, but this one won't for some reason. It's my first time using this program and I assumed it would be fine, but now it's causing me big problems. Anyone else run into a similar problem?
But it is I jsut can sync, back up files, or anything becuase its stuck at this screene and wont do execute when i click either of those button

Hello.
I recently woke up this morning to use my iPod Touch (2nd Gen) to find that it was completely unresponsive to both buttons and would not turn on. I had been using it the night before and had not charged it. Thinking the battery was drained, I plugged it into a wall outlet for two hours, and still no sign of life on the iPod. Plugging it into the computer, it immediately showed up in iTunes and synced normally, and even indicated it had nearly a full charge. Still, however, the screen showed nothing. I checked the lock and home buttons to see if it was stuck, but it was not. Does anyone have an idea of what this is? Do I need to get my iPod repaired? Any help would be appreciated.
I am running iOS 4.1, and am out of warranty coverage.
Thanks,
- Justin1; Do a hard rest by holding the buttons at least 15 seconds. Does the Apple logo come on?
2. Hold the power button down for at least 5 seconds. Do you see the battery symbol?
If the answer is no to both questions, you most likely have a hardware issue--possible bad battery.

Intel imac 2009. Grey screen with question mark folder. Changed harddrives 3 times now. Tired 5 keyboards on all Usb ports and a hub and keyboard wont boot to startup or safemode of anything but hub gets power. disc drive wont eject or accept a disc cuz keyboard commands not being sent to computer. Help?
Keyboards must be connected directly to the USB port, not through a hub.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
