THANKS! :) Nah, this is merely the little documented Silicon Pyschic Neuronal Chip (SPinNaCh) Apple's been embedding in their systems for some time, so that the true cause of problems remains hidden. It senses (via telepathy, and advanced screen reading and recognition techniques) you have an idea about something to try, so it stops doing whatever's wrong just to confuse and annoy you. This is a highly advanced, electronic version of the old 1930's Ford No Noise Assembly which automatically masks odd noises in the presence of a mechanic, later adopted as a industry-wide standard.
