10.6.4 update -- expose no longer works

Since the 10.6.4 update, the expose feature no longer works on my MBP. Activating expose causes the screen to dim as usual, but none of my windows move or resize. Strangely enough, the application specific expose still works (click and hold on an application icon in the dock). Anyone else having this problem or know of a way to "reset" expose?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Forums!
First, let's get a better sense of where the problem is. Open you Applications folder. Then, go to the Utilities folder found inside. Double-click on the Expose application.
Is the problem the same?
If so, my guess would be that the problem is somewhere in the update. An easy fix would be to download and install the 10.6.4 update again. It can be downloaded from Apple here. This should re-install the update and fix your problem.
Good luck!

After the last update iTunes no longer works... "This application failed to start because MSVCF80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem" I tried and it did not fix the problem?

10.5.7: Automatic Software Update Feature No Longer Works

Ever since I installed 10.5.7 the automatic Software Update feature no longer works. (Manual updates work fine.) For example, here's what happened today with Safari 4.0.2:
1. After powering up I got the Software Update icon on the Dock.
2. I clicked it and it said I had updates that would require a reboot and it asked the usual stuff. (It didn't say what would update.)
3. I clicked to reboot now and it asked for my password and rebooted.
4. My MacBook rebooted but nothing had been updated.
So, I went to the Apple menu to check for updates and it said I had Safari 4.0.2 ready to be installed. This time, it worked. Unfortunately, I have to do this two-step process on every update that requires a reboot. I could turn off the automatic updates and just do everything manually but I prefer the automatic way. (I had it before, too.)
Thanks in adavance,
Brian

Jeffery,
Thank you for your quick response!

I have check for updates weekly and download important updates automatically enabled.
{quote}I'm thinking that the first time you approved the update, that it could have been for something that was already downloaded in the background, and just waiting for you to OK the install.
Then when you rebooted, and did the manual check, it found that the Safari update was available as well.{quote}
Interesting. I hadn't thought about that. ☺
{quote}There could be a host of other issues... but check the "installed updates" in the SU preferences, and see what, if anything, was installed right before the last Safari update... note the date and times and see if my theory might be correct.{quote}

After installing Mountain Lion, Expose no longer works.

After installing Mountain Lion, Expose no longer works.

Unfortunately the Expose feature as you know it from Snow Leopard was removed by Apple in Lion and Mountain Lion.
You can make all windows for an app 'expose' by putting the cursor on the Dock icon and using a 4-finger swipe-down.

My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'. Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6. I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works. Her phone says its on. ???

My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'. Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6. I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works. Her phone says its on but when I try and locate it from either my phone or laptop it shows it offline. Any suggestions. It's my only peace of mind! Thanks!

Does she have her own iCloud account? You can have more than one iCloud account installed on a device, and some users install a secondary iCloud account which is common to others in the family to allow "Find My iPhone" to be used from one account while keeping separate iCloud contacts, mail, etc.
But with iOS 7 although you can still have multiple iCloud accounts installed, only the "primary" iCloud account supports "Find my iPhone". So if her iCloud account is the primary, you can no longer track her from your iCloud account. Is that what happened in your case?

After an update, iTunes no longer works

I'm sorry for such a long story. Several weeks ago, iTunes informed me of an available update. I clicked to update. The next time I open iTunes, the iTunes store no longer worked. Everything else worked fine. I solved this problem by uninstalling and reinstalling. The next time an update was available, this entirely same process happened. After finally getting everything working smoothly for several days yet another update was available. This update being 10.4.1. Fearing the same problem and not having time to deal with it, I declined the update. The next time I opened iTunes, my library no longer existed. The files are on my hard drive still so I attempted to reload them to iTunes. iTunes acts like it is loading the files but in reality is not loading them. Once it is finished, they are still not in my iTunes library. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 10 different times. I am always careful to uninstall all apple related files ie. QuickTime, Bonjour, etc... I have even gone so far as to restore my computer to a previous date. How can I fix this problem?

Don't know. Not my area of expertise. I was just trying to help in some way. You can check this:

How do I force/re-install failed Leopard update (USB no longer works)?

Hi everyone,
The last Leopard update last week went smooth with two out of three of my Macs.
Unfortunately the update did not work well on my MacBook Pro 17". I let the update
run over night and in the morning it was still stuck on an "installing" screen. I had no
choice but to force a reboot. From what I can tell a lot of the system .kext files were
updated, but my kernel was not. How do I know this? Well my USB ports no longer work
(well at least with USB memory sticks). I checked my kernel version and it says 9.3.0. The
versions for the System.kext file under /System/Library/Extensions is showing 9.4.0.
Obviously I got far enough into the update that the newer system file works (almost)
with the older kernel.......
So how can I force this update to run again??? I really don't want to reload my MacBook Pro
from scratch. There must be a fix... Please help!
Thanks,
Mike Bender

Alternatively, restore your previous good and tested bootable backup/clone, then run the COMBO update again. Don't have one? Then take some time to peruse:

After 6.1.3 Apple TV update mirroring no longer works

I have 2 Apple TV devices. both devices were configured and working for AirPlay. After the devices were upgraded to 6.1.3 AirPlay no longer works. Performed a complete restore on both Apple TV devices still not working from 3 different iPads. One of the iPads also did a complete restore. still not working. Does Apple test these updates anymore and is there any chance this will be fixed in the year.

There is no 6.1.3 for ATV.
Are all devices on the same network?

Try re-installing (go over the settings again) in the cups web-interface. I had do this when I just updated for some reason. Process is like: Maintain Printer, then go through all the steps to set it up again.

After 10.5.6 update Mail no longer works

I just updated to 10.5.6 and now Mail (3.5) no longer works. Just before the 10.5.6 update all Mail functions were working normally. When I launch the program "Mail" appears on the menu bar but no window opens. I can select the message window from the menu bar and make it appear but it has no message list and no message content in the window. I can't make sent messages appear either. My in, sent, etc. mailboxes show on the left as usual but I can't get any messages to appear in the window for either of my mail accounts. Also, Mail won't quit without being force quit. I also did the Mail Update 10.5.6 but this didn't help. I went back and used an older 3.3 version of Mail but it won't work now either.

Hi,
Some people have reported success by trashing the preference file for Mail. Quit Mail if it is currently up and try moving this file onto your Desktop:
Hard drive -> Users -> YourUsername -> Library -> Preferences -> com.apple.mail.plist
If Mail now launches properly, reset your preferences to how you like them. If it makes no difference, quit Mail again and move the file on your Desktop back to it's original location.

Gingerbread update - Bluetooth no longer working in car

I have seen people complaining about this issue on other forums - lots of phone models and car models are affected. My bluetooth was wworking perfectly for hands-free calling prior to the Gingerbread update. Bluetooth stopped working the day I received my Gingerbread update last week. I've tried everything I can try. Apparently there is no resolution to the issue yet. Verizon tech support could not help - they told me to contact HTC. HTC tech support had no clue. I want to revert back to Froyo, but apparently that's not possible either. I am VERY frustrated. I loved Android, but bluetooth in my car is a very important feature for me. Might be time for an iPhone...
If anyone has any solutions for this issue, please let me know. By the way, I have read in other forums that a factory reset does not work - it keeps the same phone software. It's something that changed in Gingerbread that is causing the problem. I would love to get rid of Gingerbread.

Smitty,
I don't have Gingerbread (yet, and I'm thinking that's a good thing at this point), but I've had the same problem with my DInc before with my 7 week old new car. After an initial successful link-up and upload of my phone book, my phone wouldn't maintain a connection either.
Here's my suggestion for you, because It's my current work around to get my bluetooth connection to work:
1) Unpair your car bluetooth and your phone so you can start from scratch
2) Re-pair your DInc and your car
3) When your phone connects to your car, you'll hopefully get a pop-up dialogue box on your phone asking to link to your phone book. At this point, say no to the phone book link. You *should* hopefully have a good bluetooth connection now, and you'll still have the ability to dial from your phone book. If you don't get the pop-up, well...I'm out of ideas. Sorry.
I don't know what capability that pop-up dialogue box on the phone supports, but it sure screws up my bluetooth connection in my car.

3GS with iOS 4.2.1 update - voicemail no longer working through bluetooth?

Hi Folks.
I've been happily using my iPhone 3GS with my Jeep Patriot's bluetooth/stereo system for months (it's called a Mygig). However, I just upgraded to 4.2.1 and now when I connect to my voicemail the sound doesn't come through the system - the iPhone thinks it is sending the audio to the stereo, but the stereo remains idle. So I have to select one of the audio options (phone/speaker) to hear anything.
If however I make a phone call, or if the phone rings and I answer it, it works fine.
Even if I use voice dialling to call voicemail, that works through the bluetooth, but as soon as it has finished the voice dialling and actually calls voicemail the stereo goes back to being idle again, even though the phone thinks it's still connected.
So at present if I want to connect to my voicemail while driving I have to use the speaker. Only for voicemail. Weird!
I am thinking this is a software update issue, as it worked fine prior to the update, and everything other than calling voicemail works fine through bluetooth.
It's as if the phone isn't talking to the bluetooth properly when it's dialling the voicemail, which is somewhat of a 'hardwired' thing, given it has its own button. I tried tricking it by dialling the actual number instead of using the voicemail button, but the iphone knew it was voicemail...
Any ideas?

Yah, have the same issues since upgrading to ios421. Pretty annoying... I have two cars, and the issue is same with both bluetooth systems. I am able to make and receive calls but cannot listen to my mobile voicemail.

I used to be able to open MAFF files but once I updated, they no longer work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

It says the Add On Compatibility Reporter no longer works and I think this might be the problem. When I click to open my MAFF file, it asks would i like to open it with Firefox, I click open and then another tab opens asking me the same question. What is wrong?

After the 10.9.4 update, ssh no longer worked until I poked a firewall hole for sshd-keygen-wrapper

I upgraded two of my Macs, a Mac Mini, A, and a MacBook Air, B, to OS X 10.9.4, using Software Update. After that, I could no longer ssh from A to B, but ssh from B to A worked fine. After some poking around for differences, I then noticed that in Mac B, I had made an exception for /usr/libexec/sshd-keygen-wrapper in System Preferences: Security & Privacy: Firewall: Firewall Options. When I deleted and re-added that, ssh from A to B worked again.
But on A, I have no such "hole" in the firewall, yet ssh from B to A works fine. What is going on?
I no longer recall whether I had myself initially added that sshd-keygen-wrapper setting on B... and why exactly I had got the (perhaps incorrect) idea that it is needed. (But if it is, why would one have to add it manually, and wht does ssh from B to A work fine without it?)

Let me add that Mac A is the machine I am physically logged in on, and I did the check sshing from B to A in a Remote Desktop session, so the situation is not entirely symmetrical.
