I was trying to make a new screen recording using quicktimeplay, but when I watched the video after recording it all I could hear was me talking while the video was showing on the screen. How do I turn off that recording and turn the right one on? thanks

Hi j2399123,
It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
And for screen recording specifically, there's
QuickTime Player 10.x: Record your computer’s screen

Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

HT201150 How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?

How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?
With the position of the power button on the Retina MacBooks, any mistake turns off the screen in the middle of a presentation or any activity using a projector or big screen — a huge waste of time to wake up the display, enter password, have the projector sync back, watch audience disconnecting from what was being discussed, etc.
This is very annoying, and seems to add to the increasing collection of options Apple decided to make by itself instead of allowing the user to choose.
Come on Apple guys, I'm using my Mac because I want options and lots of preferences to tweak to my needs.
If I needed the lobotomized version I'd be using my iPad!
Any way (official or hack) to change this button back to its proper funcionality?
Thanks!

Not what you want, but you can get the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by holding the power button

When I open Safari 5.1.5, it automatically opens all the pages from my previous session. Can I turn off that feature , and how?

So when you plug it into your computer, you're not getting a message in iTunes that it has discovered a phone in recovery mode?
Reboot both the computer and the phone and try again.

Try a SMC reset.

It might be helpful if you indicated the exact model/year of your MBP. Are you running Lion OSX?

I was trying to make a purchase from Amazon & a return but FIREFOX would not let me open drop down boxes in the purchase & return areas. I was forced to use IE to accomplish the deed. Can you investigate the problem?

Thanks for the welcome Karsten! I’ve checked the installer disks – which appear to have all the main pieces of software, but not iDVD. If you or anyone knows where it might be hidden that would be great. Thanks for all the other info too!
Thanks Lennart – I don’t think my computer could support iLife ’05 as it is running Mac OSX 10.3.2 and I’ve just been looking at its system requirements which state it requires 10.3.4 minimum – if you know differently, please let me know. As an alternative I have considered getting iLife ’04, but your comment about iLife ’05 being the first version to support external drives worried me (“iDVD 5 is the first iDVD version that officially supports external burners“ does this mean there is an unofficial option for iLife ‘04? Perhaps a patch similar to the one mentioned by Karsten), does that mean iLife ’04 would not support an external Lacie DVD writer?
What is the earliest version of Toast I’d be able to use (as a money saving option!)?
Thank you both, and apoligies for my amateurish questions…

Restart the phone

Why does my iPhone arbitrarily brighten, to the point of decreased resolution, despite my having turned off auto-brightness and setting the brightness to maximum?

Could be a hardware failure.
Restore the iPhone, first from a backup, then as new, and see if the issue persists. If it persists when you restore as new, then there's a hardware issue with your phone and you need to bring it to an Apple store to be evaluated.

HT204406 Does anyone else have to "Turn Off iTunes Match" and "Turn On iTunes Match" for it to become available and working on a second computer??

Everyday I get to work and open iTunes. Everyday the iTunes Match logo next to my library is constantly working and never stops. The only way I can have access to my iTunes Match library is to "Turn Off iTunes Match" and "Turn On iTunes Match" immediatly after. It checks libraries and then everything is available.
Is there a reason and a way to have my iTunes Match to work as soon as I open iTunes?
The requirements are met:
iTunes: 10.6.3 (25)
OS X: 10.6.8
Thanks
Marc

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately that did not work for me. I turned off match and let it sit for over 3 hours and music never disappeared. I made sure to turn off auto-lock so the iPhone/iPad didn't go to sleep and neither device ever cleared out the music so I just restored from iCloud backup.
Now the other thing thats strange is I still have autolock turned off and both devices are sitting on the music app and on my iPhone I have the cloud icon going with the status bar and took 3 hours to get it complete the first time and then someone called me and foolishly answered the phone and then it started all over again. On my iPad I don't see the cloud icon but i have the spinning wheel going in the corner for almost 24 straight hours now. I have all my music/artwork back but none of my playlists so I am going to let both these devices sit until the spinning circle stops.
I do have a large library of just under 25,000 songs so maybe thats why its taking so long but I haven't had this issue before iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.

I turned off my ipod and turned it back on, and lots of apps are grayed out

I have an Ipod touch 2nd gen 16gb, and I turned it off last night, and turned it back on, and lots of the apps lost the picture for their icon, all of the data is there, but the icons are grayed out, I tried restoring from a backup, and restoring, and nothing helped. I thought it had to do with the putting iOS 4.3 on it, since I am stuck on 4.2.1, and I tried the same with my 3rd gen 8gb, the 3rd gen also grayed out the apps, and when I plugged it into Itunes to update to 4.3, I had iTunes check for updates, and it didn't find anything, please help!

Your "3rd gen 8gb" iPod is really a 2G iPod. Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPods.
You stated: "I tried restoring from a backup, and restoring, and nothing helped." What do you mean by the second restoring?
Have you tried restoring to factory defaults/new iPod since you may have corruption that is also in your backup.

My ipad has sort of frozen but will not turn off by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button

my daughters i pad has sort of frozen. She can lock it and unlock it. All it is showing is her wallpaper. All her apps have disappeared.
We cannot restart it as per the apple support troubleshooting assistant as it will not turn off. Help

Have you tried to hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so, until you see a silver apple. See if you can get it to reboot.

How can I turn OFF Google instant ,and remove the Magnifying glass Hinderance

Firefox recently asked me to upgrade from 3.6.13 to 3.6.15 stating that 3.6.15 was more stable and addressed certain security issues. When doing a web search with Google through Firefox 3.6.13 I had the option (on the right hand side of the page) to either enable or DISABLE Google instant search which I rapidly did. Unfortunately in F-F 3.6.15 even though I select Instant search and [preview of webpage] to be OFF it seems to switch itself back on again.It only allows me to search one page Then Fades Out page 2 onwards and then Siezes up entirely. So am constantly having to switch Firefox off then start it up again before performing a new search. Please help me to permanently Disable Google Instant search and Preview of Webpage.
