Template will not hold structure
I am trying to create a site template. I get the template the
way I want it using Layout tables and Layout cells. I can apply
text to the template and it looks good. I save the file, test and
everything is fine. I try to apply different data to the template
(this time there is more text) and it moves the navigation section
of my page when I test it. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Unfortunately, there's no quick or simple solution other than
to acquire
enough facility with HTML and HTML tables to be able to work
in Standard
View not Layout view.
In my opinion, there are three serious problems with Layout
Mode -
1. Perhaps most importantly, it sits between you and *real*
HTML tables,
and fools you into believing that concepts like "layout cell"
and
"autostretch" really mean something. They do not. As long as
you use
Layout Mode, you'll never learn one of the most important
things for new web
developers - how to build solid and reliable tables.
2. Actually, #1 wouldn't be *so* bad, except that the code
that is written
by Layout Mode is really poor code. For example, a layout
table contains
MANY empty rows of cells. This can contribute to a table's
instability.
In addition, if your initial positioning of the table's cells
is a bit
complex,
Layout Mode will throw in col- and rowspans aplenty as it
merges and splits
cells willy-nillly to achieve the pixel-perfect layout you
have specified.
Again,
this is an extremely poor method for building stable tables,
because it
allows
changes in one tiny cell's shape (i.e, dimensions) to ripple
through the
rest
of the table, usually with unexpected and sometimes
disastrous consequences.
This is one of the primary reasons for the final result's
fragility - read
this -

3. The UI for Layout Mode is beyond confusing - many options
that you might
want to use are inaccessible, e.g., inserting another table,
or layer onto
the page.
I can understand the new user's desire to use this tool to
make their life
easier,
but the cost is just too heavy in my opinion.
To make good tables, keep it simple. Put a table on the page,
and begin to
load your content. If you would want a different table
layout, instead of
merging or splitting cells, consider stacking tables or
nesting simple
tables instead, respectively.
And above all, do not try to build the whole page with a
single table!
To read more about this approach, visit the DW FAQ link in my
sig, and run
through the table tutorials.

User Print templates will not hold Print Settings Presets
User print templates set up for different papers will not remember/hold Print Settings Presets
Jeff,
You are correct it does work, I added a step not needed - I created a Preset on the Print Setting page, I should have left that as Default, it works that way. How pleasant to get a response from you, I just watched Camera to Print & Screen #39 Print from Lightroom this morning where I learned about Print templates. Thanks so much. -
My Apple iPad 3 is less than 6 months old - purchased in March of 2012. I believe it already needs a new battery. It will not hold a charge for very long andvs very slow in starting up a carge when I plug it in. Please advise - it is very annoying.
Take it to Apple Store. You are covered under your 1 year warranty.

I have had my iPhone 4 for about 1 1/2 years, with no problems. A couple days ago the battery drained in about an hour, I plugged it in to charge and it was not charging. After a few hours a message popped up on the screen about the temperature being too hot...the phone was very hot when I picked it up. The battery will not hold a charge and it heats up every time I plug it in. Suggestions???
Make an appointment at the genius bar. An out of warranty replacement is $149. It sounds like it may have gotten wet.

will all my music transfer from the mac to my macbook air? I don't want it to because there is too much and the air will not hold it.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, when you are going to turn off or restart your Mac, you will see a box called "Reopen windows when logging back in" in the shutdown or restart window. Untick this box and see if the App Store opens automatically in the next startup.
If it starts, open System Preferences > Users and Groups > Login Items, and see if the App Store shows up. If so, remove it from this list -
Samsung Fascinate Will Not Hold Charge
My Fascinate will not hold a charge longer than about 8 hours. I went to the Verizon store and they said I should get a new battery. I did. It held better for a couple of weeks and now it is worse thatn before. Any ideas?
Hello brookssanford,
Are you still experiencing opportunities with your device holding a charge? If so, I would suggest a factory reset to the device. Since you received a different battery the common denominator would lead towards the device. To do the reset you would navigate to Settings>Privacy>Factory Data Reset>Reset Phone>Erase Everything. The phone will reset and prompt you to re-activate the phone. Please keep in mind this will erase everything from your device so please back up if desired. Please let me know if this helps. Thank you. -
My 27 inch iMac monitor tilts forward and will not hold position when I adjust it up.. Is there a tension adjustment for the monitor position?
That is a hardware issue that will be covered under warranty if the machine is a 2012 or later iMac. Bring it into your closest Apple Store or AASP for repair.

ARD admin password will not hold
I recently had to have my MacBookPro replaced under warranty. I cloned the hard drive from the old machine to the new. All good except a few apps needed to be re-registered. ARD on the other hand will not hold/remember my password. I accepts the password and I can use ARD but the next time I launch it it requires the password again. Any ideas about how I can get the password to hold?
many thanks
MarkYeah!.. thanks Dave. I now always run as a standard user. I logged on as Admin and entered the serial number and it held! Great. Thank you. It is the only app I have which had done this so far. Most just ask to authenticate. Weird that it did not protest, just did not do it.
thanks again

Ever since I updated InDesign CC (2014) approximately 22 days ago... I CANNOT get the welcome screen to not come on at the launch on InDesign. I set the preferences in InDesign to NOT show the welcome screen upon launch, but it will NOT hold the preferences i choose. Anyone else have any other ideas? I am about to lose my mind... I hate you ADOBE!!!
that s just the problem, that is why my level of frustration is boiling over ... I have told InDesign over and over again "Do Not Show Again" but it will just not hold the settings. It might hold it for a day or so, but then suddenly there it is again on another launch. Very very annoying.

My son dropped his Ipod in some water, we put in a bag of rice overnight and it works fine when connected to the computer or docking statioon but it will not hold its charge once it is off the cable & not hooked up, so he cannot listen to it unhooked.. Any suggestions on what to do? Thanks!!
Take it to an Apple store. Most likely you will have to get a replacement for which you will be charged the replacement fee.
Rice only absorbs water. But it cannot prevent damage to the device. -
Why is my location city changed by Firefox to a town I don't live in? I put in my zip code in the weather info and it will not hold it no matter what I do. This is very frustrating and never a problem in the past. IE doesn't have the problem. Can anyone help?
1) Is it a video clip? Something you recognize? To be clear, it's displaying at a point in your exported movie but doesn't appear at all in the sequence?
2) What are your sequence settings? Right-click your sequence and choose "Item Properties" to verify. -
