Why does the brightness turn up to max on its own?

I have an iPhone 5 with ios 7.1
I dont have auto brightness turned on and keep my brightness around 40% so I dont drain my battery and its as bright as I need it.
I noticed the brightness turning up to full brightness by itself whether im inside or outside and cant figure out why or how. Its very annoying.
I also turned it onto auto brightness to see if it would help but it is still doing it up to max by itself. Can anyone help please?

Exiting FULL screen is triggered by one of three things.
1. Pressing "ESC" on the keyboard - a "user input".
2. Clicking the "toggle" on the player interface, which placed the video into FULL screen - again, a "user input".
3. The page refreshing or new content loading in the page - can be "user input", or something like a javascript or ad in the page.
Since Chrome uses its own "proprietary" plug-in, which functions independently of the ActiveX (IE) and Standard Plug-in (Firefox), you can uninstall and reinstall all day long and it'll have no effect on Chrome. You can't download or update "PepperFlash" from here.
If you go to the Chrome Settings:
Click "Show advanced settings..."
and click "Reset browser settings"

  • Why does the screen turn back on when the brightness is turned down?

    Hi,
    I bought a macbook pro (Mac OS X 10.6.8), and just recently last week when i turn the brightness down to black, after a couple minutes later the screen turns back on. Then when i touch the trackpad then it goes back to black. Is there any way where i can change this setting??? because this didn't happen before and now it just constantly occurs.

    Seems that some process is calling it back.
    If I shut down via the log in screen it turn's off. What gives?
    Probably a process in your account and not systemwide.
    Go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. BShutdown and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Test.
    EDIT: Also, unmount & disconnect all peripherals except Apple keyboard & mouse.

  • Why does the brightness vary during video playback on iPad 4th gen?

    Hi!
    I've recently bought the iPad with Retina display. Updated the software, uploaded my music and all, but two days later after adding two episodes of a TV programme (also from iTunes) it looks like the brightness level goes down then comes back to normal then does it again, making it look like on the film set it's suddenly sunny then that the sun is hidden and so on so forth. It keeps happening with various videos. It's quite annoying and I'm not sure if anyone else has had this problem, so I was wondering if anyone has: is it a software fault or a problem with the iPad itself? (the latter would be really inconvenient as it is brand new) Or is there something that can be done?
    Thanks!

    Okay, thanks for the advice! I wonder if anyone else has had this problem and has had to take it to their local Apple Store?

  • Why does the restore turn off phone and why doesn it restart

    THe iphone 5c crashed after the last update with apple iphone,

    Hi Bravo55,
    If you are haing trouble updating your iPhone 5, try the in the resource below:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-is/HT201412
    If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
    Restart your device.
    If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
    If your device gets stuck during startup
    When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • Why does the printer turn off after a few hours of sitting idle?

    After a few hours of no use the printer (HP 7510-e aAll-in-one series) turns itself off.    To print I have to turn the printer on.

    Pace,
    Have you tried a "DFU" mode restore as new, without restoring from a backup?
    If my question leaves you lost let me know and I will explain but essentially it returns your phone to it's "Out of the box condition".
    This method has worked for me an many others albeit not everyone.

  • When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer, why do the pictures turn sideways or upside down (it's an HP windows computer)

    When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer (HP Windows) why does the picture turn out sideways or upside down?

    OK, here's the explanation.  When you take a picture, the iPhone knows what orientation it is in (portrait, landscape, etc.) and adds that information to the picture's EXIF data so it knows which side is up.  Apple devices can decode this information and show the picture right side up when it is viewed.  However, Windows computers cannot do this.  They are not capable of decoding the orientation information added by the iPhone, so they are displayed in a default orientation (which may not be right side up).
    This only happens on Windows machines, and unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it, except use the rotation buttons in Windows picture view to orient the photo correctly.

    Hello,
    Same problem for me. Really a pain in the *** this bug ! Does Apple fixed it. I'm really suprised noone reports this problem  and apple does not adress this.
    Because of that, I cannot give it anymore to children because it hurts the view. Really a shame on the part of apple !

  • Why is the brightness of my iMac become 100% automatically when I turn on..

    Why is the brightness of my iMac become 100% automatically when I turn on my computer even though I set the brightness to the lowest before I shut it down.
    I want to set the brightness to the lowest every time I turn on the computer automatically.
    Is there anything I can do?

    Hi,
    There seems to be a serious issue with screen brightness on the 24" iMac. About 6 days ago I bought a 24" iMac (2.66 Mhz model w/4 GB RAM + 640HD).
    Out of the box it had Leopard 10.5.5 installed; there were several problems.
    1. Screen brightness was way too BRIGHT. Display preferences would not pull brightness down. At least not down far enough so that the screen could be viewed without extreme discomfort. Plus add insult to injury a reboot would reset the preferences to maximum brightness. NOTE: An upgrade to 10.6.1 did NOT fix the issue.
    2. Viewing a browser page via either Safari or Firefox (latest versions of each) was not good. A vertical scrolling would be jumpy and appear pixelated. Upgrade to 10.6.1 seemed to fix most of the issue in Safari, but Firefox was still not working properly. The issue appeared like a horizontal "ripple" in about the bottom 2/3 of the browser window. The effect did NOT extend outside of browser window. Changing screen resolutions did not work.
    3. Connecting a USB Logitech head set caused issues with Sound preferences.
    If the head set was connected during startup the machine would recognize them as main sound. The internals speakers did NOT appear in the Sound preferences. as an optional choice. Removing USB headset and reboot would return the internal speakers to the Sound preferences. Plugging in headseat would work for a while. We could repeat and same problem would occur.
    These are all in 10.6.1 - definate bugs.
    Returned with the iMac to the Apple store. Bottom line, after nearly three hours; the Apple technician, and everyone could see what we were talking about.
    Regarding the screen brightness. Nothing they could do about it. They stated that "not too many people have complained about it, to their knowledge." They stated that the electronics in the "florescent" panel could not be turned down the same way. TRANSLATION: The programers at Apple let this one slip past them. As a customer (software programmer & network analyst) I expected a bit more of an intelligent answer.
    However.
    Examining the 20" model I noticed that we could turn down the screen brightness - at least to a level that my wife and I could live with. PLUS the settings remained after a restart. Something that was NOT happening with the 24" model.
    So - we exchanged the 24" for a 20". Frankly we are a LOT happier. The Safari/Firefox issue is still carried over to the 20". However it is not nearly so noticable on the smaller screen.
    Plus the USB headset did not cause the same Sound Preference issues.
    So - Thanks for the speedy return/exchange of the iMac. But someone needs to look at this from the programming side of things.

  • Why does the "set automatically" button keep turning off in the my date & time area of my settings? When it is off I can not use facetime or imessages.keep during off on my iPad?

    I wasn't able to use FaceTime or iMessages and found out it was because the "set auomatically" button was off under date & time in the settings area.  Why does tha button turn off?

    I wouldn't suggest going to get it yourself. You could find yourself in a situation you cannot get out of and could get hurt. Second, as stated before, it is more for misplaced or lost devices, not stolen devices. Many police agencies do not feel they have probable cause, just from your statement on a map location to justify attempts to recover the device. There have been many posts from others who have had devices stolen where the police will not confront someone based on that map location. I understand you are impacted by the theft, but this is what we have insurance for. To protect your content, from now on I suggest you put a passcode on the device. I hope you have changed all of the passwords for accounts you had on the device, since all of your content and data was accessible to the thief.

  • Why does the snmpcoll process always start up even if SNMP Statistics Collection is turned off?

    Why does the snmpcoll process always start up even if SNMP
    Statistics Collection is turned off?
    <P>
    The SNMP Statistics Collection field on the Server Status|SNMP
    Subagent Configuration form affects only the SNMP subagent, which is a separate entity from
    the collector process (snmpcoll). Currently, snmpcoll does not look
    at the SNMP configuration data when it starts up. It is started by
    the dispatcher and terminates when the dispatcher terminates. Many
    of the statistics are supposed to reflect cumulative values recorded since MTA
    initialization, such as the total number of messages sent and received.
    As a convenience, the collector process collects information in the
    background even while the SNMP subagent is turned off; this way,
    the values are available when the SNMP subagent is configured and
    turned on.

    Collections fall off on the Date of First Deliquency 7-7.5 years later; that is supposed to be reported as the first time you went late (1-30 days) on the OC (original creditor) in the chain of events leading up to it's being farmed out for collection as I underestand it. DOFD though sometimes doesn't get reported right, and by default it will be the date the collection is added to the bureaus. As an example I have an awkward collection (not sure how I got it looking at the payment history thought I'd cancelled that account but TWC billing apparently didn't think so) which I went late on in 2009, but didn't get farmed out till late 2010.  The DOFD is 6/09 looking at it, and it's expected to come off according to the bureaus 6/16 as a result. Different negatives have their own rules though.

  • HT201956 Why does the right side of the menu bar disappear or blink when I turn on my epson XP200 printer?

    Why does the right side the menu bar disappear or blink when I turn on my epson XP 200 printer?

    I have also been experiencing the same problems. Mac user since 1991. I own various machines but this particular problem lies with a MacBook Pro 2008 using 10.5.4
    The laptop has two users. One is fine while one is not. A new user was created but upon logging in for the first time the right hand side of the menu bar blinked off and on just like the existing user. No hard drives have been connected. All files backed up via drag and drop wirelessly.
    Since this development I have been unable to get to my iDisk; it might be related or coincidental. Last night I re-entered my .mac/MobileMe account details whereupon I was presented with a message saying the machine had not synced before. Not true. It had been syncing automatically since the day of purchase March 2008. I wonder if there is a connection between somewhere deep down in the Library, updated versions for 10.5.4 and MobileMe. Somewhere along the line a combination of events triggered the tool bar to start blinking...
    It's strange how one user is fine (seldom used and DOES NOT have a MobileMe account) while the main one, me, is not fine (used heavily throughout the day and DOES have an active MobileMe account).
    At this point, I don't intend to re-install and start all over again (I've done this so many times with other machines over the years that I was hoping those days had finally gone based upon Apple's brilliant recent advancements).
    Any help or comments will be welcome.
    Cheers!
