My iPad has been slow and unstable. What can I do if this is caused by a virus from the Internet because that is what I suspect. The problem started after a message like "scripts to run.

My iPad has been slow and unstable - it actually seems to be hung when I use it. Once I put it, a blue line with four faces (which forms a rectangle or square) appears on the display and moves as he tries to anticipate my next actions or touch on the scree. All started about four days ago while I was downloading of articles in google scholar. A message that reflects something as "run scripts" or "scripts to run" appeared just before the problem started. Please advise on what I can do.

Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

  • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
  • Press and hold the Home button
  • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

  • My iPad has been slow and has now stopped working completely and does not light

    My iPad is a few years old (I think that the iPad 2, 32GB model A1395 2, no internet,).  For w a few weeks, it has been very slow but has now stopped completely.  I can't turn on even when connected to a power source.  Any ideas?

    Bob

    You can try to reset: hold the home and power buttons at the same time and continue to hold until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). If you see the Apple, you should be in business. Once the reset is complete, the Slide to Unlock screen will be displayed.

    If this does not work, you will probably want to pay a visit to the Apple Store, so they can watch. It costs nothing for looking at it. Don't forget to take a go-Genius Bar, so you don't have to wait all day...

    Good luck

    This is what Apple said in their Article of support:

    Disable the match without your iPhone

    If you do not have your iPhone, you can always erase content and settings on your Apple Watch. On your Apple Watch, tap Settings > general > reset > erase content and settings. This will reset your Apple Watch to the factory settings.

  • Unable to access computer because the account password for Windows Vista has been forgotten and don't have a password reset disk/hard to find ways to restore the system... Help please

    Hello
    I'm stuck on the screen on my computer for my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit edition. The password to the user account has been lost, and now I am unable to access my computer. I don't have a created password reset disk so I can't reset the password. I searched these forums and seems the most effective way is to run a system restore to a time where I did have a password for my account. Fortunately for me, I did an automatic update of Windows that created a system restore point literally moments before I put the password, so I should be able to get access to my computer once I figured out how to get system restore to work. The advice I found on other forums do not seem to work, because I'm in my Windows vista operating system disc, but no screen is coming up with 'Repair your computer', which indicate the steps happen. I need assistance to find another way to run the system restore on boot menus/Vista/DVD CD. Thank you.

    Go to Bestbuy or other PC shop. They can fix it for you. (Could I have so I am not allowed to post these alternative instructions.)

  • Firefox crashes when it starts. I tried to reset it; I uninstalled and reinstalled no question. The problems started after I changed my video card

    Crash ID: bp-1c18c383-28e4-426c-96a7-ff97e2130906
    OS: Windows 7 SP1 64-bit
    I had to change my video card, immediately after this FF started crashing at the beginning.
    The graphics card is a Nvidia GeForce 210.
    I tried to:
    -Reset FF;
    -uninstall, delete the registry, reinstall it;
    -Windows Update;
    -Update (311.06) video card drivers
    but no way.
    I can start FF mode without failure.
    Any help will be really appreciated.

    I solved it by disabling hardware acceleration in the FF options.
    There seems to be a conflict between FF and some drivers from Nvidia.

    1. it is normal. You need not do anything.

    2. unless you use Windows on the computer or often to share files with computers running Windows, it just Synchronize Mac OS X and use your common sense.

  • My address book has been hacked and my contacts receive e-mail messages. How can I stop this?

    Copied spam my address book so that I wasn't using email

    I use Windows XP and Outlook Express 6.  Recently, while I was on the Net, but not by e-mail, spam has been received and sent himself to a lot of people in my address book under my own name and e-mail address.  He led "this kit changed my life", and it seems to research at various forums of discussion it has been around for several months, always with various English misspelled and poorly punctuated texts with without capital letters and a hyperlink to sites with names of different people.  I changed my e-mail address and password in a day, but my contacts has often received several versions of spam in the coming days.  My computer has been professionally checked and has no infection, and I thought that I was sufficiently protected by AVG Internet Security 2012 and my ISP (BT).  I hope that my new email address is more difficult to discover by chance, but is it possible that I can avoid this kind of thing does not happen?  For the moment, I completely emptied my address book and print on screenprints, which is a nuisance, but at least there is nothing to hack.  It is obvious that the text was spam when I opened then Outlook Express, because there were several notices referring to obsolete addresses NDR spam itself, I have the above would be deleted immediately if I had known, he had come, because it was so obvious, being on a scheme to get rich quickly and terrible English and sender's name was a pretty ridiculous (which I forgot in my haste of) delete spam).

  • Everytime I open Firefox I get a message: "an attempt to change your home page has been blocked" and firefox crashes

    Everytime I open Firefox I get a message: "an attempt to change your home page has been blocked" and firefox crashes.
    I unintalled (on my MAC) and reinstalled twice. Makes no difference. Any suggestions?

    Could you try starting Firefox in Safe Mode? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the option key when starting Firefox.

    If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    and OK reboot.

    Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

    Any improvement?

    While you are in Mode without failure, you could copy a list of your extensions and paste them into an answer? The best place for this is the support information page - either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    Scroll down to the Extensions section, and then select from there until the end of the following table with the mouse and copy. Then paste into a response. It may seem a bit messy but don't worry, we're used to it.

    In addition, if you check your homepage settings, he changed? This article explains where to find that page preferences: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings.
