  • 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.

  • 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.

  • My iPhone 5 started acting wierd earlier and the touched lived its own life. Suddenly it began the iPhone started to turn itself on and off several times, before it got a blue screen and wouldn't start again. What do I do?

  • IPhone 5 has a life of its own

    I started noticing that my iPhone was acting weird after upgrading it to iOS 7.
    1. When the phone is in sleep mode and someone calls you, you wont be able to accept the call because the screen is not working.
    2. When you wake up the phone from its sleep mode, you wont be able to unlock the phone because the screen is not working.
    3. If you happen to answer a call from its sleep mode, the phone will start dialling numbers or even end the call.
    4. If you happen to unlock the phone from its sleep mode, the phone will have a life of its own and will start to open/close apps. Usually it will go to Messages and type "qzqzzqaqzqzqqaqzqzqzq" nonstop. Luckily, I haven't experienced the phone deleting anything by itself.
    5. The funny thing is, I can bypass these problems!
    *I can accept a call using the Apple Earpods.
    *I can unlock the phone from its sleep mode by pressing the wake-up button 3 times  and everything is back to normal.
    *I can also accept calls while using the phone.
    But now I'm sick and tired of doing these steps. I want a permanent solution.
    *Phone is updated to 8.1.2
    *Tried hard reset (Home button + Sleep button)
    *Tried erasing the phone's content and restoring it.
    *I haven't tried erasing without restoring the phone and use it like a brand new phone.
    *I haven't tried removing the screen protector (free from otter case)
    Can anyone please help me?
    Thank you.

    have you tried erasing it from the device or by a forced restore to completely reinstall ios? there are differences because if you restore from the phones menu, and there is a error in the software restoring from the menu it is possible the issue persists. if you did a restore, you should contant apple care there is probably something wrong with the device it's hardware!

  • My iTunes has a life of its own.....

    Here is my dilemma. Ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard my iTunes has had a life of its own. It never did this before. It starts up whenever it wants. I could be in Safari for example and suddenly my iTunes fires up a shows on the screen. I never click on it or nothing. It gets quite annoying after a while.
    At first I thought it might have something to do with me plugging and unplugging my headphones in my macbook. But it has done it once or twice without this action. The latest Snow Leopard update didn't fix it nor did the new iTunes version 9.
    I'm at a loss. Anyone else see this or have a solution?

    I have the same issue. Just today it's started happening. While watching a video I'd suddenly hear the intro to one of my podcasts, however when I paused the video the podcast would also stop. I close iTunes and all other unneeded programs when watching movies, and yet it opens by itself and begins to play the first podcast in my podcast library.
    This has happened 5-6 times in last few hours, and is now driving me to want to uninstall iTunes (despite my large music library, iPhone, and iPod--listening Apple?) so I can make it through a movie without this interruption.
    We all know how adept Apple is at issuing a software update when a jailbreak hits the internet, so why not apply some of the coding to this flaw?

  • Keyboard has a life of its own ...Help PLS!

    hi,
    my keyboard sometimes seems to have a life of its own. for example when I am using ITunes and filling out some from on the Internet it will mute the sound on its own and fill in a buch of charachters in the forms, as if I was pushing down mutliple buttons at the same time. the buttons that are always acitvated, at least from what i could see are the shift, e and 5. After a few seconds the the keyboard returns to normal. has anybody had a similar problem before?
    I don´t know what could be the problem. Please help me if you can!
    Thanks

    Can't say I've experienced keyboard problems as you describe but I have had erratic trackpads. This Apple article helped:

  • My apple macbook pro is about 16mths old, its trackpad seems to have gotten a life of its own. it will be fine then after a few minutes the arrow on the page will start moving and clicking all on its own, im not sure what to do?

    My apple trackpad seems to have a mind of its own, it will be fine then it will go wild and start moving all on its own, clicking and going from left to right in spastic motions, what do i do, is it a virus or dust or what?

  • Computer shuts down on its own even with full battery life.

    I purchased a new battery for my 13 inch aluminum MacBook. Installation was fine and dandy but even with a full charge, if I don't have my power adapter connected, the computer will shut down on its own without warning. Is there a fix for this?

    Have you reset the SMC?

  • Why does my iPod start playing on its own.

    MY iPod lives in the docking station and every now then it just starts playing on its own accord.  How can I stop this as some nights it frightens the life out me!!!

    Do you have any alarms set up on the device? Perhaps you can try a hard reset of the iPod and then see how it does for a few days again.

  • IPhone switching to a different wifi network on its own.

    I have a 4S running 5.0 and live in an apartment complex with free wifi, however I use my own private network with an Airport Extreme. Life is good! But occasionally (perhaps every other day and without leaving the apartment) I’ll notice my iPhone’s wifi signal is less than the usual full strength. When I check its wifi settings I see it’s switched over to the apartment network on its own. Any idea why? And what can I do to keep it locked on to my own network? Thanks in advance.

    You can go to settings, WFi and search or all networks, it should still come up in the search.  To be really covered, write down the name of he network, then you can always use Other...which lets you enter the name of a network to join.
    If you are on earned about it, just keep operating normally and if you end up on he network, Forget it then.

  • IPhone 4 shuts down on its own all the time. Sometimes restarts without ability to make calls, receive emails, and the wrong time.  Only a restore fixes it.  What can I try?

    So my iPhone had a broken screen and back for a while, which may have something to do with this.  I mean like missing peices.  I realize this leads to corrosion and I may have a broken iPhone but this is a really strange problem.  It's always shutting off on its own, sometimes in my pocket while locked and sometimes randomly while in use.   For example the other day this started happening everytime I started safari.  This happens all the time, I usually just restart it and it works for a while.   Sometimes after shutting off a few times in a row, after restarting it will show the wrong time, screws up phone calls and says that it cannot locate the gmail server, or something to that extent (won't load emails).   The phone calls are weird, I can't receive any.   Any calls that are made from the phone, go through on the other side and ring for them, but won't ring or make a connection on my side, also I can't end the call when this happens, it responds to me pressing end by fading the screen to that graytone color that it does before ending usually but stays on that screen whenever you go back to it, only disappearing after reseting.  Texts work, not in iMessage, and internet seems to work.   The only thing that fixes this condition is a restore. The iphone has been turning itself off over the last 3 months and its been getting progressively worse.  Recently its been pretty bad, and then the phone started to do all that weird stuff I've been talking about.  That started about 3 weeks ago and has happened 4 times, the last two times relatively close together.   This is really annoying and I can't afford to replace it.   Do I have to live with it?   What can I try?  Should I maybe replace the battery?  I took the panel off to look at it and the plastic around it was pitted possibly from being really hot.

    Please don't respond with useless comments.  I've already addressed the fact that my screen was broken a few months ago.  My phone may or may not be broken beyond repair either way, as I said before I can't afford a new phone.  It's a strange problem because from what I can tell no one else has posted the same problem anywhere I can find.  Don't be a dickhole.

  • How do I stop the cursor from having a mind of its own?

    I just received this computer T400.  A mac user wswitching over to pc - not famliar with the land.  I am using a notebook and the cursor clicks on its own when I let it rest and then transports me to whatever information/page that it happens to rest upon.  needles to say this is very tiring.  I have tried to go to the help section and there is not informaiton about how to stop this from happening.  There is informaiton for mouse control.  The information I found on the cursor only spoke to the rate of blinking.
    also, I would like to incluse word in my start up programs and can't figure out how to do that.
    the cursor information would be most useful to me at the moment.  Thank you.

    onlinebabe, welcome to the forum,
    you probably need to turn off or adjust the sensitivity of tapping in the UltraNav Touchpad properties. Go to Control Panel > Mouse and select the UltraNav tab and adjust the settings.
    Do you mean that you want word to start automatically when windows starts? Right click in an empty area of the task bar and choose properties > Start Menu > Customise and add Word to your Autostarts folder.
    Hope this helps
