Very strange but very annoying problem?

Hey everyone, quick question about something that while not a big deal is very annoying. For some reason even though im the only person who uses this laptop its my brother that os x seems to think is the owner. In other words any scenario where os x has an auto fill or something it always puts my brothers name or email in. Incredibly irritating and ive no idea how to fix it.
There are no other accounts besides my own and ive created a card in the address book for myself and set it as "My Card", that is all i can think to do.
Any help appreciated.

Actually in Safari its fine, its more programs that are the problem. Say iMovie for example it will fill the wrong details automatically into the template because somewhere on this thing it has my brother as the primary user/owner.

    Strange but probably easy problem...
    I have made two pages recently. One for a company and one for
    a game I'm making during my spare time. I have made them both in
    the same way with an html page for every side.
    The problem is that when it changes sides... On the first
    page I made it looks like it leaves the back ground graphic and
    just reload the text that has changed... this is how I want it to
    be. But on the second it loads the backgrounds's every time...
    These are the links... I hope someone understands what I mean

  • Very loud, but very weak vibration motor [Xperia Z1]

    Hi,
    I've bought new Sony Xperia Z1 a few days ago and overall it's a great device, but there is one issue, which is very annoying for me. 
    The vibration motor is very loud, but at the same time vibrations are just weak, so that when the ringtone is set on the lowest level, the motor is louder than this ringtone and when I keep the phone in my pocket I can hardly feel anything when it's vibrating. 
    In the keyboard I've set the shortest possible vibrating time, but it still makes more sound than vibrations. 
    The pitch of the sound is increasing with the duration of the motor working: eg. when I push home button for one time, the sound is quite low (but still loud), but when I press a few times in a row the sound gets higher and even more irritating.
    Is it normal behavior for this smartphone? It's very annoying, because vibration should be discrete way to notify me about incoming calls or text messages. The fact that it is louder than a normal ringtone makes it useless. 
    Is it possible to fix it via software or is it a hardware issue and I should send the phone to the repair center.

    I have the exact same issue.  When the phone is in my holster and vibrates to remind me of a meeting, I can hear the vibrate but not really feel it.  I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 before this and I could feel the vibration all the time and not really feel it.
    This is really a huge downer for it.

  • Very Strange Logic Studio Installing Problem, please help !

    Hello .
    I wanted to install Logic Studio 9 on a brand new imac and somehow installation was failed .

    And now i am trying to reinstall, but this time Installation is not asking me Audio Content 1, 2 and 3

    But what ever i tried, gives no solution . At the end a fail .
    How can i wipe out all the Logic existence from my computer to make new install ?
    Or, what is this problem i am having? As installation is not asking some discs which is necessary for the setup anymore .
    Did anyone experienced that ?
    I will be very happy if someone can assist on me this . Since 5 hours i am trying to setup this thing .
    Thanks a lot

    it is very frustrating to see such an installation problem happening from a "professional" called DAW .
    I am actually a Protools user , and i have never had this type of complications .
    I mean come on, i am just trying to install the thing .
    On a new system, on a new computer and from an original purchase .
    I believe i have enough computer knowledge to instal a simple software .
    But i am spending almost 10 hours since yesterday to install Logic .
    Instead of making designer boxes or giving fancy advertisements, i am inviting Apple Engineers to create proper working software .
    Especially to see a professional audio software like Logic in this epic fall, is very very bad .
    I mean you can say i am problematic and don't know how to instal a simple software, but than please write to google, Logic installation problems , and you will see thousands of issues .
    Whatever i am writing here not against to the people who are replying and want to help , i just want Apple to read this .
    Ah , i am sure Apple won't put attention on it , but doesn't matter .
    You just lost 1 customer for Logic
    I am erasing this thing now from my computer and continue with Protools as the way i was doing .
    Sorry if i am bitter, but this is not acceptable .

  • Very strange and possibly complex problem: Macbook (A1342) Trackpad starts acting strangely after typing something on keyboard

    A few things you need to understand first:
    1) My macbook keyboard does not work.
    2) Upon reboot, the trackpad works fine.
    3) Then, as soon as I try typing something on the macbook keyboard, the trackpad starts to register every single click as a two-finger (right-click).
    4) Then, immediately after I push a key down on the bluetooth keyboard, the trackpad starts doing the double-click thing again.
    Here's another strange thing. This issue arose a few weeks ago, then suddenly disappeared without me doing anything. I mean, the trackpad AND macbook keyboard were both working flawlessly. After about a week, this reappeared again, and my macbook keyboard stopped working, with the exception of like, 1 key.I have no idea what this could possibly be. Advice appreciated, though I'm not sure anyone here would have any clue what this could be.

    I had a similar problem.  The battery was VERY SLIGHTLY deformed and was exerting preassure on the bottom of the trackpad.  A new battery solved the problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • Very strange E4200 Router Connection problems

    So Pretty much everything about my router and internet works just fine.
    But a week and a half ago, I was suddenly unable to access a website I'd been visiting for years. it's a phpbb forum that's hosted by a friend for a small online community I'm a member of. When I try to access the forum, I get "Could not determine your IP address". 
    I tried rebooting the network. That didn't work. I put up with it for awhile, but now I am also unable to access another website I frequently use as well, and that error is simply "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to wowhead.com".
    I've tried both websites on multiple browsers and resetting the modem, and router, and clearing my cache and rebooting my computer doesn't seem to work.
    Now here's where it gets weird.
    I restored my router to factory settings in hope that this might work and it did! For a few minutes I was able to access those websites without a problem, but then my entire intrenet hiccuped hard for a second and now I cannot access them again.
    So I reset the router back to default again and it didn't work at all. I couldn't access the websites again at all.
    The difference is, the first time arround I disabled the WMM support because my dad likes to stream HBO a lot and it sucks more bandwidth than he needs to do it, so I had it disabled before the first reset(And disabling it did not originally coinside with being unable to access those websites, I disabled the WMM support months and months ago and was able to access those websites just fine for a long time.) WMM is currently active again and after a third reset, the only configurations I have changed are adding a pass word to the wireless connection. (I selected WPA2 Personal encryption, I don't have the CD set up any more, so I opted to activate it the old fashioned way.)
    Now the other weird thing, well this looks weird to me at least, is my ping results to google.
    http://i41.tinypic.com/5ofbr5.jpg
    Now I don't know if they changed something recently, but it didn't used to do that.
    Any ways my Firmware is 1.0.05
    I hope I've given sufficient information. I'm not sure what else to do at this point except buy a new Router. I've had this one for over a year now. I'd hate to think their 180 dollar router only has a one year shelf life.

    Hmm small update
    google is telling me my ip address is some strange long string of numbers and letters.
    "Your public IP address is 2605:6000:150b:4004:ac96:6419:b590:c635"
    This might be why I am unable to access these websites.
    also strangely, since I started messing with my network, my IP address has changed? I'm running on Cable, I was pretty sure Cable IP's were static. How bizzare.

  • Very strange iPod 120 gig problems

    About one month ago, my 120 gb iPod Classic began to randomly pause when moved and skip songs and videos. I reset, restored, checked for iTunes and iPods updates, and reinstalled, but the problems continued.
    After experimenting with different brands of headphones and doing research, it appeared to me that the most likely culprit was a worn headphone jack.
    I sent it to Apple's repair service, which returned it a week later, saying it had been repaired.
    It worked just fine for about 3 days, then resumed the pausing and skipping. Album artwork also sometimes appeared as a garbled "static" looking image.
    I then thought it might be a issue with my computer, so I ran several virus scans, defragmented it, and formatted the iPod as FAT32.
    Next, I restarted the computer, then restored the iPod, then restarted again and synced the iPod.
    It worked like a charm...for roughly 3 hours. I then experimented with just doing a reset, restarting the computer, and syncing the iPod, which bought me another hour on average.
    However, it didn't work for long. After two days, that method no longer worked, and it now immediately pauses and skips whenever I listen to it.
    I'm at my wits end with this thing. I'm not sure whether sending it back to Apple will help, since it didn't last time, so any advice on what to do is appreciated.
    Thanks -

  • Very strange and very frustrating WiFI issue with U460 Ideapad.

    I have been very happy with my U460 up until this point.  A very good value I thought.  
    Problem:
    Unit running well.  One day my wife complains that the wifi is dropping on her.  We reset the router and it seemingly went right back to normal operation.
    This continued however, not more than 10 minutes later.  I took a look at it and diagnosed it as a wifi router issue.  I called my isp and they reccomended I started cycling the channels used on the router to avoid any interference.  So I did that.
    Absoulutely no improvement.  About that time I brought other machines into the mix and they would have no issue at all while the u460 would drop the connection periodically.
    So I called Lenovo and they had me remove some bloatware from the computer, I forget the name of the program.  They also had me reinstall the drivers for the wifi.  This did nothing, but I gave it a day or two to let it work itself out.
    Next thing was to flash the hard drive completely.  This did nothing.  In fact, this made the situation somewhat worse for some reason, but it is hard to really quantify what is "worse".  They then sent a box for me to return the machine.
    Return 1: From all I can tell they just flashed the hard drive again and put it back in the box.  The notes said they saw this issue I saw.
    I almost immediately call them up again and they send me a RMR number to send the u460 back
    Return 2: Replaced WIFI adaptor and flashed hard drive.  Again they note on the RMR that they saw this issue.
    This has had no improvement whatsoever.  
    Further debug steps:
    I note that the closer I am to the router the longer the wifi will stay connected, but it will drop out eventually
    Ethernet is totally ok.  Bluetooth is OK
    Seems to disconnect on other wifi access points other than my own.
    I am worried to send this back again. I have a lot of consumer electronics experience as I work in support for a major technology firm.  To me I have absolutely no idea what the heck is going on. I think the software is clean, and I can't even imagine what the hardware issue would be.  From browsing this forum this problem is nearly completely unique except insofar as removing the bloatware which pertains to the wifi.  
    Any help would be appreciated before I call Lenovo again to send the machine back.  The next option is just EBAY as a broken item to recoup some of the cost.

  • Very Strange!  But turns out OK for me, others may need to beware!

    Woh, when I received my Leopard and upgraded, I did a Archive Intall thinking in case something goes wrong with the Leopard installation I would be able to go back to Tiger. Well I had gotten to the point to where I was comfortable with the way Leopard was running and went to delete the "Previous" Archived install, and it simply was not there. No more Previous Install directory...very strange, but since I was ready to delete it anyway, then no big deal. Hopefully this won't happen to somebody else that really needs the Archived Install. Just a HEADS UP message to anyone interested.

    Here's the Apple Knowledge Base article that gives the command for removing the Hidden attribute on the Home directory for folks who did a Leopard upgrade and had their Home directory vanish:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307033
    Obviously you would need to know the correct name for the "hidden" folder you are trying to unhide.
    In a Finder window, type Command-f to bring up the search panel. In the "kind" drop down box at the top of the right panel, select Other. In the panel that opens up, scroll down to File invisible and check the check box to the right of it. Then click on OK. Now again in that "kind" drop down, you will find file visibility in the list. Select it and also select "Visible or invisible" in the drop down just to its right.
    Now you should be able to put in the name of the missing folder in the search field and have it show up.

  • Premiere Pro CS5.5 -very strange issue with the color tones and Preview-

    I deal with a very strange and not usual problem in Premiere Pro CS5.5 (also the version CS5). What I try to do is just a simple color correction. The problem occurs when I try to use Three Way Color Corrector but it happens with Fast Color Corrector also.
    When applying the Three-Way Color Correction and without changing anything else (just applying), can be seen in the preview of the soft how sudden changes in color tones. For example, the gray tone becomes a little more green, but also can be seen very easy a change in the other color tones too. In fact even RGB Parade show the same thing. This is very, very strange and unacceptable and saw that it happens when trying to use Colorista II too.
    I tried the same thing in Sony Vegas Pro 11 and I downloaded the trial version of Edius 6 to convince me if the same thing happens. Not! In Sony Vegas and Edius everything is working correctly, I have not experienced these problems in the preview's of this 2 others softs.
    This issue is very annoying because every possible color correction is based on what we see in the preview and if in this preview the tones are seen altered realize that can not make a decent color correction. So what happens here?!? I uploaded a small video demonstration to see very clearly about what I'm talking. You can see in the next link: http://vimeo.com/35317616

    Yes Jim, you're right. No changes in the scopes when one just apply RGB Curves, Fast Color Corrector, RGB Color Corrector  or the Three way Color Corrector (last three thanks to the new update 6.03). I already wrote that Adobe team has been able to fix this bug for some of the tools/effects.
    But Brightness&Contrast? Change Color? Color Balance? Levels? MBLooks? Twixtor? Colorista II? Does it seem normally that all scopes or just one of them jump when you just apply one of these effects/tools? Not to say that in some situations even the tones change (especially in shadows&midtones).
    You say this is something "very minimal". I say it is not so. I don't find normally to make a very detalied CC with Three way Color Corrector and then when applying Colorista/MBLooks, for example, the scopes jump and inclusively some tones may be influenced. And I left clear examples in this topic where you can see that this is possible. I don't know if this is "very minimal" or not, but is really so impossible to edit in Premiere without this "very minimal" issue?!? How can it be possible in other softs (Edius, Media Composer, Vegas Pro) and in Premiere not?!?
    One more thing: many of us use intermediate codecs in the editing process. Do you find normally that a AVCHD video have the lumninance at approximately 110IRE, to export it directly to Cineform and then import it in Premiere, and the waveform shows the luminance at 100IRE?!? How is this possible?!? So the AVCHD video have a 110IRE luminance, you convert this video to Cineform without changing anything, and then this Cineform video have the luminance at 100IRE?!? And anyone can verify this example.
    So, how can one trust in this soft?!?

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above has helped, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • Why does my iPhone 4 not charge correctly?  Problem is definitely with the phone and not charges or chords.  Phone will charge but very slowly and no icon comes on.  Computer and iTunes doesn't recognize it a being connected.

    My iPhone 4 quit charging correctly.  It does charge but very slowly and icon doesn't indicate it as charging.  I've checked cables and charges and the problem is definetily with the phone.  My car stereo no longer recognizes it as a device.  Neither does the computer.  The real strange thing to me is that when I plug it into my old klispch speaker dock it will play songs.  My battery life is good when it is charged so I don't think its the battery. I've tried resetting the phone and cleaning the charging port.  I'm out of warranty.
    Would disconnecting the battery possibly reset it from some glitch or is the charging port got some bad contacts?

    I checked with the Genius Bar.  It was a new dilema to the lady that was helping me.  She took it to a back room and worked on it but it came out the same.  She gave me some options for repair or credit for replacement.
    I just kept the phone and put up with slowly charging it by plugging it in and then turning it off.
    I couldn't transfer anything from itunes.
    I finally got fed up and bought a new charging port for $10. and a toolkit for $3.  I looked up a video on youTube for the replacement and did it.
    That solved all the problems, it was the charging port, must have been some bad pins or something because it patially worked.

  • A Very Strange Post Update Problem

    Hi guys, new to the forum here, wondering if I could get some help with a most disturbing problem...
    Off the bat, I use a ppc Mac G5 running 10.4.11. I use this for Music production, and general music listening in my studio. For Audio I use pro tools HD 7.3 (as well as logic 8), with a digidesign 192 IO interface, and run most ofmy audio thru that. Now that we have that out the way... I normally dont agree to updates, as I would not like to upset a balance thats been working perfectly for me for some time, but 2 days ago, one of my assistants was using the computer and agreed to the latest update for Itunes, quicktime, and logic (but not the security update). Immedietly after the update finished (during which he said the quicktime update crashed), the system started going haywire, pro tools was shutting down, itunes wouldn't open, the like... Well after uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and quicktime, all order was restored, except for one AWFUL problem.. the sound coming out of any program BESIDES pro tools (itunes, logic, toast) is very strange, as if its coming thru very cheap speakers. I've run itunes through both the digi interface and the standard sound card (it has the same problem), and checked the EQ settings (flat), my sample and bit rates are straight... I have no idea! if anyone could offer some insight, It would be much appreciated! Thanks!!

    HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    It's possible there's an underlying problem with your hard drive.
    Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    *(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    Also, make sure you have sufficient drive space. Control or right click the MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop. Click "Get Info". Under the General tab you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is at least 10% available disk space, 15% is better.
    If the drive appears to be ok and you have enough available disk space, you could try the 10.4.11 combo update available here. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eppc.html
    Make sure and run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions BEFORE and AFTER the installation.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Very Strange Internet Problems

    I own a MacBook Pro 15.4 Inch that I purchased about a year and a half ago. I recently upgraded to Leopard and have all the latest updates. I am from the US, and when I am home my internet works fine. However, I am on travel to Seoul, South Korea right now and am having a very strange internet problem.
    As far as I can tell, the URLs that I type in to my browser are, sparodially, not translated correctly into the webpages that they are supposed to represent. This problem is probably effective 75% of the time, and the rest of the time my internet works roughly correctly. For instance, when I enter http://www.google.com, instead of being taken to the Google homepage, I am taking to the homepage of Jammin Beats DJ Service, an obscure website about a company in northern Pennsylvania. The actual URL of this website is http://www.jamminbeats.com, but when my internet is malfunctioning, 'jamminbeats' is for all intensive purposes replaced by 'google' (that is, it applies not only to the main page, but to sub pages, so "http://www.google.com/weddings" takes you to "http://www.jamminbeats.com/weddings" and etc). For most other webpages, one of two things happens. Either I am taken to the correct page but it is displayed without any images or frames (just the html text and links), or I am taken to a blank page with the header "Under Construction", which I assume is the default for a page that doesn't exist. This is why it seems as though the URLs are simply being interpretted erroneously.
    This problem occurs when connecting both to the wireless and the wired internet at my hotel, and it occurs on both Safari and Firefox, so it is not a connection-specific or browser-specific problem. It may be a problem with the hotel's internet, and as of yet I have not had a chance to test the computer at another location. However, a colleague using an IBM computer has had no problems, and I am currently on a Samsung machine in the business center of the hotel and it is working correctly as well. I have searched extensively online for a similar problem but have come up empty handed, and more than anything, I am confused about what might be causing this problem. The strangest thing is that a fraction of the time, the internet functions normally, but it is usually roughly 15 minutes out of every hour, and eventually I am inevitably taken back to Jammin Beats.
    I am a computer science graduate but I still have no idea what would cause this problem. At first I thought it might be a hacker, but if it is, he or she has been at it consistently for 3 days now, and only seems to be targeting my computer. Any ideas or solutions would be greatly appreciated, as I have been forced to resort to the hotel's business center for checking email, doing work, etc. Thanks in advance.

    I did consider that, as I was in Beijing last week and there are a number of censored sites. However, in Korea I have had problems with very basic sites like facebook, wall street journal, google, yahoo, Korean google, my hotel's webpage, etc. Further, I have successfully gotten all of these sites to load seemingly at random, and can access them without problems on other computers. The only disconnect seems to be between my MBP and the internet, not between Korean internet and the web. I have toyed around with the network settings, and although sometimes after switching from "Automatic" to a fixed connection I get some sites to work, it usually only lasts a short time and eventually the same sites stop working. I reset my cache regularly to make sure I'm not getting sent to cached sites, but this also doesn't help. Further, my Apple Mail, Skype and AIM accounts jump between being connected and disconnected randomly as well. Again, this is isolated to my own computer, which is why I'm so confused.
