Magic mouse double click not operating. With iMac 24" and 10.6.8 bluetooth cannot discover the mouse and spins for ever, but mouse was working OK until 2 weeks ago. Now double click does not work, have to go to menu to open messages etc.. A nuisance.

Magic mouse is not discovered by bluethooth software, but it worked OK until 2 weeks ago (10.6.8 and iMac 24). Now the double clik does not open messages, I must go to the file menu to do it. A nuisance. Closing a file takes exactly 2 or 3 seconds! Any idea? Mouse and batteries are OK and checked by retailer. Please help.

Also using iMac 10.6.8
My magic mouse works ok but I am getting the same message from Mouse prefs that no mouse is “discovered” and the progress gear spins forever. For the time being, at least, my mouse functions as expected.
I have trashed mouse prefs and rebooted, but that did not solve the problem.

  • My iPhone 4s was stolen almost a week ago now.  If I can still see the phone listed in Find My iPhone but appears to be turned off does this mean the theif has not restored it to factory settings???

    My iPhone 4s was stolen almost a week ago now.  If I can still see the phone listed in Find My iPhone but appears to be turned off does this mean the theif has not restored it to factory settings???

    Are you sure?  I have other devices at home.  The only way I can make them disappear on the tracking list is by turning off location or resetting to factory settings. 
    I just want to make sure I'm not tracking a phantom that I will never recover :-(

  • Firefox stopped working a few months ago. Re-installation does not work. Help

    Firefox suddenly stopped working. I have tried uninstalling numerous times during the last six months without any success. It appears to download and puts an icon on the desktop but clicking it does not connect me to the internet. Google Chrome and Explorer work but I prefer Firefox. Any ideas to solve this. I am running Microsoft Vista

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Does ANYONE know what to do with the iTunes problem, it was working OK 2 weeks ago now has an error and wont open? getting so frustrated!!!

    Heeeelp!!!!!!

    Have latest version of iTunes installed and running. Also make sure you have internet access working and can access Apple websites. Also, make sure you don't have any entries in your hosts file referring to gs.apple.com....If your not sure about how to do that, go ahead and do the rest first. You can come back to that later.....Plug in phone. Put phone in DFU mode.(google put iphone in DFU mode for instructions) Then restore the phone in iTunes by highliting your device in the left column and click on the Restore button. The latest iOS version is 4.3.3. That's what iTunes will restore it to. When it's done restoring, iTunes will ask if you want to restore from a backup or setup as a new phone. I would use the Setup as a New Phone option. Once it's done, you should have a clean install of the iOS and an operating phone, as long as there are no hardware issues with it.

  • IPod model A1059, freezes, unresponsive to all click wheel entries.  Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or on windows explorer.  What is the problem and how do I fix it?

    IPOD model A1059 appears frozen and is unresponsive to all click wheel entries. Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or in Windows Explorer.  What is the problem and is there a fix?

    If you are unable to reset the iPod (assuming the hold switch is not in the On position either), then you'll have to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then connect it to a charger and leave it to charge for a couple of hours.

  • Why won't my pandora work when I'm not on wifi? I have the cellular data on for it but I never works. Also pandora isn't the only app of mine that does that.. What's wrong with it??

    You're welcome.
    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

    You did the wrong things. In the future it's a good idea to remember not to do something when you don't know what you are doing and what happens when you do it.

  • In adobe reader app on iPad, I have a PDF document that added notes and comments to.  Once I left the document and returned to it, the notes and comments were gone.  Where are they?  I clicked "save" and "done" buttons after I entered text.

    In adobe reader app on iPad, I have a PDF document that added notes and comments to.  Once I left the document and returned to it, the notes and comments were gone.  Where are they?  I clicked "save" and "done" buttons after I entered text.

    The application auto-saves your input when you close the document.  If you left the document, as you state, the notes/comments should have been saved and should have been visible the next time you opened the document with the Mobile Reader (note that if you are opening the document with another app such as Apple's built in PDF Viewer, things like notes/comments may not be visible).  Also note that if you are doing an Open In... from another app (like Dropbox), the version of the document in Dropbox does not update; only the version of the document in the Mobile Reader is updated.
    Would it be possible to send a video of the problem you are encountering to [email protected] so that we can try to help?

    I have a new laptop running Windows 8.1. The 10.3.1 version downloaded, but it was incompatible with Windows 8 and 64-bit. Then I tried to download Itunes 11.1.5 and it comes up with the box asking me to save. When I click on save...NOTHING happens. AAAAAHHHHH!!! I even clicked on the download list to see if it is possessed and downloaded somewhere I didn't choose, but that's NOT happening either. Please help me! I have been messing with this and 4 other problems on this laptop for the last 32 hours. I'm getting tired and frustrated. Also, I haven't even put music on THIS Laptop because on my other one, I ended up with at least 5 copies of EACH SONG. Let's see 636 X 5 = 3,180 and they were in EVERY POSSIBLE LOCATION!!!

  • I just upgraded to the New OS on my Mac Book Pro and now my trackpad does not zoom in or out.  I looked at system settings on trackpad and it is set, but does not work How do I get it started?

    This is really unfortunate. I'm sorry that nothing works. I was going to mention holding down the power button and doing a force shutdown but you already did that. You might need to take it into the Apple store. I don't know if booting into safe mode would help. You would have to turn off the machine again, hit the start button and hold down the shift key after you hear the tone, but normally you would let go of the shift key when you see the apple logo and spining wheel. Maybe by holding down the shift key after you here the tone will cause the screen to come back on? The other option is to start up from the 'install disk' if your machine came with one. You would insert the disk, then shut down the computer, and hold down the C key right after hitting the start button.
    Here's the link for the safeboot

  • I applied a template to a page with SWFs and now that page does not play the SWFs. Why?

    I applied a template to a page with SWFs and now that page does not play the SWFs (just a blank area where the SWF should be). When I detach the template it will play the flash file. This site will eventually be updated via Adobe Contribute. And I just discovered that when applying a template to a page that uses HTML datasets (Master/Detail),it no longer reads the Master/detail regions and displays a blank. Any thoughts?
    [Moved to Dreamweaver forum by moderator]

    Firstly, you shouldn't really 'apply' a template to a page, you should create a child page by going to FILE>NEW>Page from Template.  Too many things can happen when applying a template the way you are doing it. eg:; editable and non-editable regions not matching up and being asked where to place these regions and in all likelihood, you end up with 2 or more of the same region.
    When a swf file is inserted into a page, a corresponding Scripts folder is written automatically is stored in the root of the site - it is also linked to in the head of the document. What I believe is happening is that when you apply a template to the page, the Template has no idea that there is a swf file on the page and is not aware of the correct link to the Scripts folder.  If you do a test and add the swf file to the template page itself, I bet that the links to the swf and the scripts folder are correct - because DW knows the correct path to the script file.   Hence the reason the page probably works when you detach it from a template.
