The mousepad lives its own life, help!!

My mouse jumps around and live their own life, it seems to say the least quite frustrating.
Just when I think I press "no thanks" to this or that, the mouse, ie coursen, jumped on the "yes"
Sometimes it is just small jumps coursen making, other times it is across the entire screen.
Even when I'm not actively control the mouse / coursen happens that it moves across the screen.
Then sometimes I would rather do nothing, but still make something.
It makes it a little at times, but for example. 3-4 days without and then maybe 30 minutes to 1 hour when it does it. Have tried MacKeeper where it finds an error during virus rubric, but have not bought it, so do not know if it can help? It is now worse, but since writing this post right now, without problems?
Have updated to Mac OS X 10.7.4, as it teased a period of 1-2 months ago but nothing has helped?
What can I do? If I reset my computer works again or is it something hardware does not work anymore? The computer is nearly a year old.
Sincerely Lasse

Uninstall MacKeeper before you do anything. I'm not saying that it's the cause of your problems, but get rid of it nonetheless.
See - Do Not Install MacKeeper and How to Uninstall MacKeeper.
Get rid of it immediately. It is insidious malware.

One of these resets might do the trick:
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
PRAM RESET
Zap the PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
If that doesn't help start it in Safe Mode and see if the problem persists.

My iphone turns off? Livs it own life?

My new iphone turns off it self! Livs it own life! I have restarted in itune but the problem is stil there?

That's normal behavior. It turns off automatically in order to preserve the battery. Pushing the On/Off button turns it on immediately. This also requires entering the passcode and prevents the phone from being accessed by anyone but you.

I have a iphone4s and an ipod 4th gen, they both share same itunes acc, the ipod has its own email but when people try to FT it also rings on my phone, how do i stop it ringing both devices

i have a iphone4s and an ipod 4th gen, they both share same itunes acc, the ipod has its own email but when people try to FT it also rings on my phone, how do i stop it ringing both devices

That's because you're using the same Apple ID on both devices. On your phone: Settings>FaceTime>You Can Be Reached at>Remove your Apple ID.

Just got my first iPhone, an iPhone5. I added the contacts via my Mac, but the phone on its own added my 5000 Facebook friends as contacts and won't let me delete them. How can I delete them? Thanks.

I just got my first cell phone, an iPhone5. I added my contacts via my Mac. But the phone on its own imported the contact info of all 5000 of my Facebook "friends." When I go to one of them, hit edit, and try to delete them, the phone tells me that I cannot delete a Facebook friend. This is a nightmare. Please, I beg you, tell me how I can get these Facebook friends off of my contacts list. Thank you!

Settings>Facebook>Contacts>Off.

Why is my InDesign document drifting to the left on its own?

When I pull up a file it immediately starts moving to the left of the screen...sometimes disappearing to the point that I cannot work on it. Even if I go to the bottom of the page and move it back, it just moves back to the left on its own.   Why is this happening? What can I do to make it stop and follow my direction.

I found out the problem. It was a mouse malfunction that only reacted to my InDesign files.   When I switched out the mouse, the problem went away.
Thanks for your suggestion though to restart.   That quite often works.

2.3 year old iMac (27inch) Hard Drive failing. Does the drive have its own warranty?

My imac that is 2.3 years old is now having the S.M.A.R.T system saying the drive is "failing". Does the drive have its own warranty? That's not very old for a failure and most HD manufactures have a 3 year minimum. Now I wish I had bought the extended warranty period. Shish.

No.

Iphone with a mind of its own! HELP

I've had my iphone for a few months now and it has developed a mind of its own. It will turn on whenever it likes and drain my battery. It freezes while I am scrolling and if I am surfing the web, it will boot me out back to my home screen. This past week I made an appt with apple and they said there is nothing wrong with my phone. Hmmmmm.
Now today I am sitting here at work with my iphone next to me and ti turned on and now there is this daisy looking icon on my screen and I can't turn it off. I never touched my phone and now if I try to slide my bar to unlock it, it does nothing. Has anyone seen this icon its in the middle of my screen and looks like a daisy.
BTW, I've never downloaded anything to my phone and all the updates are current.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1378094&tstart=75
I've been having a similar but less extreme problem - just turning itself on and draining the battery, peeps at Apple store saw no problem, even though the phone can rack up 2 hours of use (as recorded in the phone) during 10 hours of absolutely no use. I made my own post of the problem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1380312&tstart=0
Someone in the other guys thread suggested re-installing iTunes. I don't know about that. I restored the phone to no effect. the 'home' button pushing itself could explain your problems (and mine), except for the daisy - and it sounds like a reboot fixed that. Software is finicky and sometimes you just have to reboot. Quite honestly, software these days is too large to be fully tested.

Macbook pro changes user picture on its own . Help please.

Does this mean I have some sort of malware?
Reccently my mac started changing my user photo on its own. Even more strangely the photos are only from photobooth.

You likely have a corrupt cache file someplace in OS X.
12: OnyX cache cleaning
This routine cleans all possible corrupt caches, doesn't delete your data or programs.
Apple doesn't include a easy for the user, system wide cache cleaning process in OS X, something they need to consider implementing.
So we have to depend upon third party software to do this and the best, time tested and free one is OnyX
Sometimes a corrupted cache file can cause strange behavior, slow machine, Dock and fonts doesn't work, beachballs effect, something won't install, Safari acting up etc., just general strangeness that can't be explained. Web browsing slow when all the other machines are fast etc.,
Use the free OnyX matching your OS X version and run all the initial checks
Run all the maintenance and cleaning aspects (except don't delete the log files) and reboot at the end (must)
If any of the initial checks OnyX does gives a warning, then Stop and report, you have a serious drive or other issue.
This will give OS X a enema of sorts (won't delete file or programs) and let it rebuild all the cache and other files, including Spotlight.
You must be through running all the maintenance and cleaning aspects as this is a "catch all" method and any number of corrupted caches may be responsible for your issues. Don't worry, OS X will work fine (and likely faster again) after the caches are cleaned out and rebuilt from their original sources provided you REBOOT when finished using OnyX.
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11582/onyx https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnyX
List of proven OnyX successes:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18377471?ac_cid=sa123456#18377471
OnyX also has a Verify > Preferences
(plist) file checker, show the corrupt ones and write them down. So while your in OnyX cleaning your caches, check for corrupted plist files too for the next step below.

Hi,
<u><b>Deleting Adjacent Duplicate Entries</b></u>
To delete adjacent duplicate entries use the following statement:
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATE ENTRIES FROM <itab>
[COMPARING <f1> <f2> ...
|ALL FIELDS].
The system deletes all adjacent duplicate entries from the internal table <itab>. Entries are
duplicate if they fulfill one of the following compare criteria:
Without the COMPARING addition, the contents of the key fields of the table must be
identical in both lines.
If you use the addition COMPARING <f1> <f2> ... the contents of the specified fields <f1>
<f2> ... must be identical in both lines. You can also specify a field <fi> dynamically as
the contents of a field <ni> in the form (<ni>). If <ni> is empty when the statement is
executed, it is ignored. You can restrict the search to partial fields by
specifying offset and length.
If you use the addition COMPARING ALL FIELDS the contents of all fields of both lines
must be identical.
You can use this statement to delete all duplicate entries from an internal table if the table is
sorted by the specified compare criterion.
If at least one line is deleted, the system sets SY-SUBRC to 0, otherwise to 4.
Examples
DATA: BEGIN OF LINE,
COL1 TYPE I,
COL2 TYPE I,
END OF LINE.
DATA ITAB LIKE HASHED TABLE OF LINE WITH UNIQUE KEY COL1.
DO 4 TIMES.
LINE-COL1 = SY-INDEX.
LINE-COL2 = SY-INDEX ** 2.
INSERT LINE INTO TABLE ITAB.
ENDDO.
LINE-COL1 = 1.
DELETE TABLE ITAB: FROM LINE,
WITH TABLE KEY COL1 = 3.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO LINE.
WRITE: / LINE-COL1, LINE-COL2.
ENDLOOP.
The output is:
2 4
4 16
The program fills a hashed table with a list of square numbers. The DELETE
statement delete the lines from the table where the key field COL1 has the contents 1 or 3.
Regards,
Bhaskar

Why has Apple not addressed the problems with its own software?

Since I seem to have made the fatal mistake of upgrading my lovely iMac to Snow Leopard, most of my iLife 09 products have ceased working. In particular iDVD, where as before on faithful Leopard it did its job 100% it now decides to crash whenever it feels like it, leaving me with a third party application to use. Myself, along with approx 2000 other users have the same problem, so come on Apple, why the problems with your own software?? and why are we still waiting??

Hi hipster36
Welcome to apple discussions. Question for you: Is your mac intel based?
If not, what's the objective in upgrading to Snow Leopard as opposed to continuing to work perfectly within Leopard? What added features were you considering to upgrade to? Are there any benefits in doing this for your own mac (even if it is intel based)?
It's wise to approach all upgrades with caution (meaning always back up your current / working HD).
Frankly, the way I upgrade is to clone my existing hard drive and then boot to the clone. Thereafter, I install the latest upgrade or OS (assuming it works well on the clone). I guess what I'm saying is to never upgrade without backing up and performing a test drive of the latest OS before you opt to alter your main hard drive. One can't assume that the latest and greatest Mac OS will continue to work fine on a mac which didn't first ship with this particular OS.
This latest Mac OS /Snow Leopard is a bold step forward for apple. It's bold step forward in that it excludes all non-intel based macs.

I have one icloud acount with my phone and ipad on it. I want to make a new ipad account so I can free up storage space on my phone and put the ipad on its own ipad account

I have one Icloud account for my iPhone 6 plus and my ipad. I have no stoage left. So if I set up an Icloud account for the ipad it will have its own storage then I can take it off and open up some storage on my phone.

In case you're not clear - iPad/iPhone storage, and iCloud storage, are totally separate. Buying more iCloud storage does not give you more storage space on your device. Your device has a fixed storage space for apps and data (e.g., 16GB - which is more like 12GB in real terms). iCloud storage just allows you to store more documents, mail, photos, etc, in the cloud.
