Dashboard Widgets not Working or Updating

I have a 3 week old Macbook Pro and I noticed about a week ago that my dashboard apps not working. I have researched and have not found a solution to the problem. Any help?

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.

    Dashboard widgets not working. I trash the dashboard .plist and redo all widgets then after a restart. Widget not working again.

    Yes hello,
    My widgets are not working as well, i looked on forms and it seams that the 10.5 update fix there problems. I also did an archive and install from 10.4... One of the major reasons i purchased the upgrade was to use widgets to clip parts of safari, i'am totaly bummed because all forums i find end with the question un answered. i'am a little bummed becuase there are a couple of things that worked with 10.4 that are not working in 10.5 (like some meg moives not playing.
    i do not wish to create a new account because i do not want to reinstall all my software, photoshop, final cut, dvd studio pro.. etc.
    i hope to find the fix some how.
    I have opened up the console application and when i select widgets load or delete them i see no activity in the console. I'am not familiar with the console app. or command lines.
    is there any more info on this matter? is there any support from apple?
    Thankyou

  • Dashboard Widgets not working...

    I noticed last night that my Dashboard Widgets not longer were functioning.  After searching here, I tried doing "~./Library/Prefrences/com.apple.dashboard" refresh and all, but no joy.  I tried verifying and repairing permissions, but also no joy.  I also can't enable iCloud Calendar and Reminder setting in System and wonder if all these problems are interconnected....

    Thanks,  That got me to thinking and discovered all I had to do was go to System --> Mission Control, turn Dasboard off  and the re-enable it.  It worked right away.  As a side bonus, discovered "Overlay" mode and assigned (unused) F5 for that. Pretty cool!
    Stil no joy on being able to enable Calendar and Reminders in Internet Accounts either.  Although I did notice that I have two instances of the same email accounts setup in email.  Trying to delete one sends me to internet accounts, where there is only one instance.  If I delete that one and go back to Email Prefences Accounts and try to delete the remaining, it errors out saying no UID for it.  I think that "may" be related to the iCloud problems as the iCloud username is also that email address.  Not sure how to get rid of it.  I setup another Mac user login to test and everything works fine.  I just want  to get everything working for the other Mac user login account as it is highly configured.
    Hope that all made sense.
    Thanks!

  • Itunes Dashboard/widget Not working

    I have searched and found a number of people stating the same problem but no solution has been offered or confirmed.
    The Itunes widget stopped working it will no long display the current song playing and does not allow you to control the songs playing. If you click on the controls a window will come up saying the widget crash and would you like to re-start even though it is still running. This problem is not limited to apples own itunes widget other itunes widgets are doing the same thing.
    I can only conclude this has something to do with itunes 7.1.1 or early because it use to work and not it does not. The only Itunes widget that still works is AlbumArt widget.

    This is what mine looks like when I don't get any results:

    Is your's like this, or is it different?

  • Safari, dashboard & help not working after 10.4.9

    I have loved my iBook since day 1, until 10.4.9. This is my first Apple computer and I was very close to being a convert. I updated through sys prefs to 10.4.9 and now: Safari opens for a split second then closes with kernel errors (or I least I assume from the crash log), no more widgets and dashboard does not work and help files do not work. What gives? I tried downloading the combo update but it was a .exe file. Forgive my lack of tech know how, I know some, enough to get me in trouble evidently. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried booting into safe mode, Safari does the same thing, I have tried repairing permissions in safe mode and in regular mode as admin, nada. HELP!

    I originally updated through sys pref and just let it go. One day later things stopped working. Repairing permissions etc did nothing. Applied the combo update, verified the disk before hand, repaired permissions after the update and reboot, now things are back to normal as far as I can tell, better even in some areas. Hope this can help others with similar problems.

  • Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash wmode transparent based

    Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash with wmode transparent set. For that matter all flash text fields in Safari 5.1 are not working accross the web when wmode is set to transparent. This is a Safari bug! Other browsers work fine.
    Well after much research Adobe flash text field with wmode transparent set is not working in Safari 5.1 when any flash object has the wmode set to "transparent", or "opaque". The problem is many site must layer flash objects with html so the wmode transparent must be used.
    Affecting sites like BEST BUY, WALMART, CVS, STAPLES, Chechout their flash based weekly ads and find one that you need to update the quantity in the flash pop-up and the text field with keyboard strokes will not work. Flash text fields were all working fine until several month ago when Safari rolled out 5.1 working for Google Voice Flash based widget which uses the wmode transparent. HELP!

    If not working for you, try clearing your cache to remove any old, non working versions.
    Test on some other machine besides yours.
    Code looks fine and seems to work.

    I Have tried:

    -going into general settings and reset all settings
    -the device reset several times (waiting until I saw the all important apple logo)
    -removing the last few apps I installed.

  • Iphone 4 personal Hotspot not working after update to IOS 7.1 India BSNL cellular

    Iphone 4 personal Hotspot not working after update to IOS 7.1 India BSNL cellular

    BSNL is not a supported carrier. Personal Hotspot requires carrier support and provisioning of the account to enable it. iOS 7.1 disabled the ability to manually configure Personal Hotspot on unsupported carriers.

  • HT1688 My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Service is with ATT.  Apple says problem is with ATT, ATT says problem is with Apple.  Anyone else having this problem?

    My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Any suggestions?

    Ok, I had the same issue, my phone is unlocked(iphone 5 with 6.1.3). So I went to the apple store and had it replaced. it worked good for a day and started doing the same thing. When the apple tech replaced my phone, he transfered my screen protector to the new one.
    so I thought it was my sim card, I put in my sisters sim card from a different carrier and it did the same, so then I was like let me take off the screen protector, and that was it.
    so guys, if you have a screen protector on your phone and it's doing "low signal", "No Service", "Searching", "Full bars cycle" then take off the screen protector. so far my phone is working normal.

    Click to activate plugin does not work after updating to version 23.0.1

    hello Kamullia, if you have set click-to-play to true in about:config you can now go to the ''addons-manager > plugins'' section and set the permissions individually for each plugin type.

  • 3G is not working after updating to iOS 6.1

    My 3G connection is not working after updating to iOS 6.1. I have tried all possible solutions like resetting the network, restarting the phone etc.
    With this kind of bugs in every update, Apple will no more be THE Apple.
    There are bugs which have not been fixed even in the subsequent updates. SMSs going blank being one of them.
    Miss you Sir Jobs.....

    I have since managed to sort mine out - when the phone was updated it wiped out the network settings. 
    I was able to reset them by manually putting the information in:
    Settings - General - Cellular - Cellular Data Network and then I put in the correct details for APN, username and Password in the relevant sections and now it works OK.
    Hopefully it will work for others too

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards
