Why is my iPod behaving like this?

My iPod Touch 4th generation keeps popping up Voice Command by itself and keeps stopping and adjusting the volume by itself. Why is it doing this? There's absolutely no damage to it....I haven't dropped it and there's no water damage

Did you already try to reset it by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes up again? If this does not work, restore "as new ipod" without using the backup, in case it contains corrupt files.

Why Hashtable class name is like this instead of HashTable

I have a doubt in Collections, why Hashtable class name is like this, because, Every class name is start with CAPS like, ArrayList, SortedSet, etc. then the second name first letter should be in CAPS.
Is that any special for that. Can anyone clear my doubt
Thanks in advance.

Why is Acrobat naming files like this?

Acrobat has recently began naming files I want to save from the internet with a series of seemingly random letters and numbers.
For instance, previously if I went to www.domainname.com and right clicked on a link www.domainname.com/top10acrobattricks.pdf to open in a new tab and then save it, or if I just right click and "save as" it used to name the file in the dialog box as "top10acrobattricks".
But recently it has been giving the files random names like "A9R75A4", and I have to rename every file before I save it. Does anyone know why it has started to do this?
BTW, every file begins with "A9R", with the next 4 letters and numbers different and random, i.e. no sequence to them.

I'm used to these names for anonymous files created in Acrobat, or other apps. But let's see what I get. First, I will post a link to a PDF. Here is the link https://community.dur.ac.uk/g.l.ingram/download/tut.pdf. Please visit Why is Acrobat naming files like this? to check this link.

Why doesn't the "more like this" section offer suggestions anymore in the netflix app?

In the netflix app there is an area labeled "More like this" and it usually show suggestions of other movies. After the last ATV update, it just shows "More like this..." but it doesn't show any movie suggestions. When I spoke with netflix, they said the problem was with Apple since they design the netflix app.

I would also like to know why the suggestions are missing. It seems to work when you select movies outside netflix.

Why is my text formatting like this?

Hi
I've set up my .css so that the <H2> is big and bold,
and that my <p> text is smaller and normal. The problem is
that I'm getting a line break gap between the two even when there's
not one in the HTML. There should be a space between the <p>
and <H2> (padding of 5), but not the <H2> and
<p>. The HTML is:
<h2>Designers - </h2>
<p>enter your designs</p>
<h2>Everyone -</h2>
<p>vote for your fav designs<br />
Here's the .ccs:
h2 {
font: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #69DB33;
font-size:18px;
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
padding-top: 5px;
p {
text-align: center;
FONT-SIZE: 13px;
COLOR: #847d6e;
FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-style: normal;
So it kinda looks like this (layout-wise):
Designers -
enter your designs
Everyone -
vote for your fav designs
instead of :
Designers -
enter your designs
Everyone -
vote for your fav designs
I know I could probably do all the formatting in HTML, but I
should be able to do it all in .css - can anyone help?
Cheers
Shaun

Your interpretation is correct. Show us the code where it is
not working
for you, please.

Why does Mail behave like this?

More often than not, when I try to either respond to an email, or generate a new one, Mail just hangs. It will continue to do this until either 1) it finally gives up and says to select another server, or 2) I quit Mail, then open it again, at which point the outgoing mail swooshes away like it should have the first time. I would say this happens 8 out of 10 times.
The other thing that's driving me nuts is servers I have deleted from the server list keep coming back. I've tried repairing permissions right after deletion, but that doesn't help.
These two issues come together when I let Mail continue to try to send while it hangs, then it pops up and tells me it can't do it with that server, try another... and the servers I've deleted are back on the list again; sometimes, Mail has tried to use one of the re-appearing servers, or it'll offer one of them as an option.
THis is maddening. Anyone have an idea how I can get these things to stop?

Hi Dave, missed this apparently, thanks for bumping it up again.
On the Mail problem, Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
On the Server issue, are they listed in Accounts>Login Items, or set to Automount?

60GB ipod behaves like only a 40GB in iTunes

Got a new 5th gen 60GB ipod, replacing a previous 40GB model. ipod mounts fine, looks like a 60GB disk in disk mode, however in itunes, it refuses to copy more than 40GB of music/photos/whatever.
Weird eh ?
Any ideas how to fix this ?

Got it fixed !
Problem was pretty wierd in the end, so I thought I'd report back. 40GB behavoir was just conincidence - my itunes library is just under 40GB, so that's why I upgraded to a 60GB.
Problem was that one of the files in my itunes library was apparently 252.2GB in size (even though the disk in the powerbook is only 80GB). Get info, ls, etc all reported the fielsize as this, there were also problems I had with backup (there was insufficient space on my backup device. This single file was causing the inability to load all the library. Anyway, deleted it, thing were fine now
Finally, I regularly do disk utility verify, and the funny file was not picked up in this.

I didn't know Macs behaved like this...

Hey everyone,
I never thought I'd come to a day where a PC would be more reliable than a Mac but I guess this is the reality. I purchased my unibody Macbook approx. 2 years ago. It's had the odd crashes, applications crashing one after another etc but nothing like I've experienced a few days ago.
As I was working, all of a sudden my open applications started crashing one after the other (imaging editing software, Firefox, and then Finder). Everything started going crazy, kernel panics, would get stuck at grey startup screen indefinitely.
I decided to try and see what was wrong so tried verifying and repairing the HD, there were no problems reported. Verified and repaired permissions, some problems detected and fixed. This didn't help, it kept hanging at the startup screens, going in and out of states, like the screen would flash up like it was shutting down, then coming back to the desktop. It was going crazy.
I started it in Safe Mode a couple of times, was OK but then when you start normally, you'd get kernel panics, not leading to anything but frustration. I decided to get all my files off and reinstall OSX. I did this, and sometimes it would hang or I'd get kernel panics and it wouldn't install properly and have to be forced to shut down. I did manage to fully install it once but then again, a kernel panic happened. Basically, I tried to reinstall OSX a few times and try get it to work but there is this reccuring problem with kernel panics not allowing for progress. Some people suggest it's something wrong with the RAM. I've never forced something to shut down so many times because it just wouldn't go after 30 mins.
So what have I tried?
Hardware test at startup - no reported problems
Resetting the RAM at startup
Reinstalling OSX
Verified repaired permissions
Verified and repaired disk
I'm just so disappointed in Mac now. And frustrated. I never in a million years thought this day would come, when I expect reliabilty from a machine. Maybe this is why they only give 1 year warranty because after 2 years it could go kapot at any minute...Deeply disappointed.
Anyway, I hope someone can give me an insight at least. Thanks a lot.

If you can do so then I would try erasing the hard drive then installing Snow Leopard from scratch.
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X 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.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
If the drive is still working properly then the above will repair any soft defects on the drive. If all is OK then quit DU after formatting and return to the installer. Install OS X. If there are still panics then take it in for repair.

Why does Java utility look like this - mac god required pls

Where are my option tabs - this is driving me nutzoid

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by Find My Mac.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Anyone have an iPod case like this?

I want to know, does anyone have an iPod case similar to the one linked to below?
I'm looking for one for my 5th gen iTouch, and haven't been able to find one in America or on American Amazon (the one I found is on the UK Amazon).
If you have one similar to this, or any other suggestions, please answer. I like the thin, tpu material, and prefferably the case will be clear.
Thanks to everyone who answers!

btw, dont say things like "google it for yourself" or "look on amazon".
I have looked and not quite found the perfect one yet and I'm looking for anyone's suggestions!

Will this work out for you???
I hate to be too picky but I never have quite liked those hard plastic shells. Tpu is really more of what I am looking for (and for everyone else, I prefer Amazon to eBay, so if you know of one on Amazon, that would be better). Silicone is not an option either.
It does look like a decent case at a fair price, and for trying going on what I described I marked your answer as helpful.

Why does my cmus look like this?

It's in a screen session on Leopards terminal. It didn't do this before and I haven't updated anything and I'm confused. If I go to the cmus window, the rest of the screen windows look like that too and when I detach the term looks like that.
hrm, it only does it when I do
ssh -t me@foo 'screen -rd'
if I just ssh then do screen it doesn't

Supposed to be plain old english. Leopard terminal says it does UTF-8, but I'm pretty sure I removed all the foreign languages.
The weird part now is that it only does it when I put screen in my ssh command. Let me bold that part. I can live with hitting up arrow every time I login from this computer.

Why is my Page looking like this?

I have essentially the same page uploaded and I have no idea why one is looking like it does and the other is fine. The one that is the DSMS Home is the one I need to look correct. The other one is a test of that page before I made it the homepage of my school!!

On my machine it looks horrible (viewing in Firefox). The text is all over the place, an image that used to be on the page and I took it off is still on there. I checked the site on a different computer using IE and it looks good. I'm not sure why only on my machine it looks bad.
