HT3509 I have no erase button in my window?

Where it says there should be an erase tab at the top of my window, there is no tabs at all. It only shows display tabs and eject.

Does the window look like this?
This looks like a secondary window, opened with "File > New Window".
Click on one of the drives in the left column, to bring the tabs forward.

In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

What operating system are you using?
Which version of camera raw do you have in photoshop cs6?
After you select the Adjustment Brush, the New button should already be enabled.
Then after you draw on an area of the image, the Add button should be enabled, with the option to choose either of the other two buttons; New or Erase
Could you post a screenshot?
Maybe all the adjustment values are set to zero?
(at least one needs to have a value other than zero)

Erase button on Disk Utility doesn't work

II'm trying to erase my external HDD so I can use it to restore a backup of my HDD , since there's a problem with my HDD and my MacBook Pro is stuck on startup, but the erase button (is not grey, it looks functional) doesn't respond. I press it and nothing happens. What can I do? I need to backup my files ASAP

Connect the external drive to another mac ( a friend maybe?) and re-format it using that.
I'm not 100% clear on what you're trying to achieve here, but it sounds like your MacBook HDD is corrupted. Make sure you've tried repairing the HDD using disk utility in the recovery partition. This will tell you if the disk is usable. It may repair it and return your system to normal operation.
If your HDD is corrupted or damaged you may have trouble backing it up to the external drive anyway.
Personally I would remove the HDD, replace it with a new one and re-install OS X onto it. While you're out getting a new HDD, pick up a SATA to USB drive caddy that will allow you to connect the old HDD to your new restored Mac via USB. If it's readable then you should be able to copy data off it.
Your ability to re-install to a new hard drive will tell you if the problem was with the old HDD or with the Macbook itself.
If the old HDD is not readable you may have lost your data, or you may need to go to a professional data recovery service. This is why backups are essential. I would recommend using your external drive for backups with Time Machine.

Lacie USB 3.0 - do I have to erase it to be compatible with time machine?

Just bought a LaCie USb 3.0 external hardrive. Do I have to erase it to be compatible with time machine?

I would do this:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. 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. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply 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.
It's now ready for use on your Mac.
If for some reason Disk Utility will not repartition or format the drive it means the drive has been preformatted with NTFS to which OS X cannot write. You will need to repartition and format the drive using the MBR partition scheme and formatting FAT (MSDOS.) When you succeed with that, then open Disk Utility again and do the above process that now should work.

My iphone 5 will not turn on ... i have held both buttons down at the same time and I get nothing ...it is fully charged ....any other suggestions?

My iphone 5 will not turn on ....I have held both buttons down at the same for a long time and get nothing ...it is fully charged ....and other suggestions?

The screen on my iPhone 5 (iOS 8.1.3) went dark after unplugging it from the PC. I could still could see a backlight on the screen, but unresponsive. iOS was hung in this state.
I opted to try a reset holding power and home button, which succeeded in turning off the phone.
After that, the screen went completely off. Power button didn't appear to turn on the phone.
Upon plugging back to iTunes, I discovered, even as the screen was pitch black, the phone was actually able to power on, or off if I repeated the reset....I could hear the USB connection chime on the PC every time I powered on or reset. The iOS was in some sort of corrupted state with no screen output.
I couldn't restore to factory settings, as iTunes requires I disable "Find My Phone" on the phone itself, which I couldn't do without screen output. Also tried to put the phone in "Recovery Mode"...didn't work either.
I finally succeeded by:
Logging in via web browser to iCloud, locating the phone with the "Find My Phone" web app, and triggering [Erase]. iCloud reported the phone was successfully erased.
After a minute, the phone rebooted itself and screen output worked again.
I then restored my data and settings from my last backup using iTunes without further issues.
Hope this helps others.

Update iOs 4.x to 6.x - do I really have to erase and restore device?

Do I really have to "erase and restore your device" as stated at the top of this support page:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
in order to update iOS 4.x to 6.x (iPhone 4)?

Yes.
See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to.

I have garage band ver 10.0.2 and am trying to add effects to an audio track but i have no info button or track info under the track tab. How do i get these things to show up on my program?

I have garage band ver 10.0.2 and am trying to add effects to an audio track but i have no info button or track info under the track tab. How do i get these things to show up on my program?

In GarageBand 10.0.2 you can no longer add all kinds of effects freely; this GarageBand '11 feature has been discontinued. Pick one of the predefined patches that already has the effects you want.
However, you can add effects from the predefined audio units.
You'll see the predefined effects on the track, when you open the Smart Controls. To add audio units, click the button and enlarge the the smart controls pane by dragging the dividing line to the Track Area upwards.

New computer, new itunes, do i have to erase everything on my itouch and iphone just to sync it with my new computer??

Hello,
I recently purchased a new windows laptop because i needed a new one. My old laptop ive had for quiet awhile and i've had it for like 7 years. Anyways, i have a iphone 3GS and itouch 4 generation. I installed itunes onto my new HP laptop and i connected my itouch first to transfer my purhcases. But i thought after authorizing the itunes would make it to where i didnt have to erase it when i hook it up to the new computer. Friends and family memebers of mine have itunes and apple devices too and they mentioned that they didn't have to erase either their ipod, iphone, or ipad when they hook up to a different computer. MIne however, says " this ipod/iphone can only be synced with one computer at a time" and it gives me the options to : cancel, erase and sync, and transfer purchases. Now i already transferred my music and most of my apps onto my new laptop. BUT, im worried about my iphone losing all of its contacts. If anyone can help me mess with the sync settings to where i can back up my ipod and iphone data onto my new laptop that would be great!
P.S. I did manage to TRANSFER all of my apps and music. I am worried about my CONTACTS and PHOTOS disappearing after it erases and puts whatever back on. i just need helping finding a way to get all of my stuff not to erase. And my ipod and iphone DO SYNC to the new computer but DO NOT BACK UP to the new one.
Thank you!

Can we have a "print button" to print massive report document ?

Hi there,
Can we have a "print button" to print a massive report document (e.g 3000 page , each for a specific customer description), instead of exporting to pdf or excell before printing.. ?
Thanks
-toni

You cannot have a print Button in the report, But have you tried Scheduling the report, and setting the output to printer? That might meet your requirement. You can also use the schedule section to run it immediately (once)

Can I have multiple submit buttons on the same form?

Hi!
I'm creating a web page that allows the user to build a mail filter, and I would like to have to submit buttons, one to add more fields to the filter and another one to save the filter... I could insert the two buttons on the, but I don't know how to distinguish them while doing the process of the form on a jsp page. Any ideas?

You can create additional submit buttons using Javascript buttons:
<input type='button' value='Add Fields'
onClick='this.form.action="/servlet/AddFields";this.form.submit()' />
<input type='button' value='Save Filter'
onClick='this.form.action="/servlet/SaveFilter";this.form.submit()' />
The value of "onClick" is a block of Javascript, so you can all a function to validate the form before submitting, etc.

How can I use my home Mac and my MacBook's iTunes and not have to erase...

I have a desktop Mac and a Macbook. Obviously I have iTunes on both. Both are the same account.

I mean, you'd think they'd be linked? Geez.....help <Edited by: Host>
