10.6.8 Update Issue: My cursors are of an older clunky style. Just the cursors seem to have lost resolution. Everything else seems fine.

All my finder cursors reverted to something with less resolution when I login. Logging into the guest account does not have same issue so it's clearly account specific. Happened after 10.6.8 upgrade. Is the issue associated with Universal Access? How can I get hte cursors to back to their higher resolution?

  • I just updated to windows 10 and I have no audio, everything else works fine

    i have no Audio, sounds or volume afte the update/upgrade to Windows 10. This is NOT the case yesterday when I did not have Windows 10 updated/upgraded into my Sony Vaio Laptop. Everything else works fine, it's taking a usb logitech mouse among other things. My Audio jack will not function so earbuds will not do the trick. I have found a old PS3 usb headseat seems to work, following that logic a usb speaker set would do the same. If you have a HD Cable you can link your laptop to a HD TV and use the TV's speakers. What can I do to fix my audio problem?

  • My iphone will no longer connect to my home wifi. it recognises it, but the searching cirlce is constant next to network name. there are three laptops and another iphone on the same wifi that have no issues. i have reset network settings

    my iphone will no longer connect to my home wifi. it recognises it, but the searching cirlce is constant next to network name. there are three laptops and another iphone on the same wifi that have no connectivity issues. i have reset the network settings but that did not help. the issue started last week when the second iphone was introduced to the house, could this be the cause?

    No.
    Any problem connecting your iPhone to any other wi-fi network besides your own?

  • After the last update of itunes I seem to have lost all my music (Cds that I had downloaded into itunes) except the once I had purchased from the itunes store. Can anyone help? Do you know what might have happened?

    After the last update of itunes I seem to have lost all the music that I had downloaded from my Cds. It was a lot of music! All I still have is the music that I had purchased in the itunes store. And before you asked. No, I did not have a backup. Never got around to do it.
    Does anyone of you have an idea if and how I can maybe get my music back?
    Your help is very much appreciated. Would it help if I recover my computer from an earlier date?? I am not even sure if I make sense here.

    Hi - I seem to have a similar problem. I was prompted to update to iPhoto 11 yesterday (don't know why yesterday, I'm in iPhoto all the time). So I followed the instructions, library updated, all existing events and albums are there. I uploaded some more pictures and created a few new albums and did some new year spring cleaning, moving stuff around etc. And I started making a calendar.
    I've opened it up today, my calendar is still there as are all the new events, but the pictures are empty outlines. If I open up a picture I just get the "!" but I can still see the thumbnails showing in the slider in the bottom - I don't know if that means the source files must still be there somewhere, or if it just means it captured thumbnails yesterday.
    I've gone into it via "show package contents" and there just don't seem to be any masters for an upload yesterday. I also just had a look in the last import folder, because of a comment from someone above. As I scrolled down through the folder the images were there and literally disappeared in front of me - by which I mean, the thumbnails were there as I scrolled down and then would turn into empty outlines...!
    All my old folders are still there, thankfully (although they're of course the ones that are also all safely back up).
    Although I have a timecapsule, my photo library is too big to keep on my hard drive, so I keep it on an external drive - so it only gets backed up when I do it manually (thanks Apple for that, I will never understand why it was designed to work - or not work - that way). So if the pictures have been lost then they are gone for good which is super-frustrating (I just got back from South Korea and was in the middle of sorting out all my shots from that trip).  It seems that this can only have happened because of the update - I should have known better than to have pressed yes.
    If you have any ideas, I'd be most grateful!
    Regards

  • Safari pages are darkened and unresponsive. Internet is fine. Syncing with MacBook did not solve problem. Everything else works fine.

    Safari pages are darkened and unresponsive. Internet works fine. Syncing to MacBook didn't help. Everything else works fine, including a different browser and apps that use the internet. Safari responds to searches and bookmark changes, but pages are not clickable. Help, please.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Also have you cleared the cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History). Also, if your equipment list is correct, you update to 4.3.3

    You may have to try a general OS X troubleshooting process to see if the issue goes away by doing this...
    Have you tried: starting the computer in SafeBoot mode, with shift key held down; a login screen should appear after a time, and then the regular desktop. At this point, locate Disk Utility in utilities folder, and run 'repair disk permissions' on the startup volume, usually the name given the hard disk drive as it appears on desktop. After Disk Utility is finished the permissions repair, restart the computer normally.
    ...The iTunes player has free support only through the duration of the hardware product's complementary or AppleCare extended plan coverages, so though you can download a newer version, that is not the same as free support for an issue. However, the iTunes Store or App Store has a different factor for their product.
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    There is an iTunes area in Apple Support Community discussions for more topics like this; except for when they involve a hardware product where an OS X is involved. If your computer is NOT a powerPC (an 'intel'-mac) the topic would more naturally need to be posted where that hardware and later supported OS X version topics get seen. So that is why one asks 'on what Mac running what version...' instead of writing four paragraphs in a wide angle reply. The details about your iMac and the OS X say more; without them, more questions arise.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    You might want to download something called an undelete utility. These can find files and recover them even after they appear to have been lost. There are some undelete utility programs that are free. Look at tucows.com
    Also, it appears that you have POSSIBLY overwritten the actual files, which you moved manually, with I don't know what, which you moved in PSE's folder location view.
    Next, in the future ... NEVER (that's: don't even think about it) move your photos in Windows. NEVER. NEVER. Not ever. Not once. This always (that's ALWAYS, as in 100% of the time) causes problems and usually makes things difficult to fix.
    Lastly ... make regular backups! I must say this in the forums about seventy bazillion times a month. Make regular backups! Regular depends on how often you take photographs and edit them. Since my photographic activity usually happens on the weekends, I make backups every Sunday night. You may need a different schedule, depending on your activity level. MAKE REGULAR BACKUPS!

  • HT204291 I updated my apple tv to the latest firmware. I seem to have lost the ability to mirror my ipad 3rd gen. Can anybody help

    I bought an apple tv for its ability to mirror any of the content on my new ipad 3rd gen. Now after updating my apple tv i seem to have lost the ability to mirror my tablet onto the screen. Can somebody help with this. I have tried to do everything. I made sure both my apple tv and my ipad are connected to the same network. I also made shure my bluetooth was off. I can still airplay with my brothers iphone 4s. ( ios5.1) but i cannot do the same with my tablet.

    To U2SockMonkey,
    You must be a newbie, because otherwise you would have fixed it. I don't have that mirroring problem and it must be because you are not looking around and inform yourself thoroughly. It took me also 2 days of grief before I found out how to do it. Not even to mention that the Apple Engineer that I called did not have a solution either and just suggested that I should send my Apple TV back or go to a Apple Store nearby.
    I was pretty annoyed about that such a little black box was giving me grief. I have been working in the IT industry for over 30 years and I know quite a bit inside out about many hardware's. But my opinion is that sending out Version 6.0 Aka 5.1 as you rightfully say is not on with me.
    This is the same behaviour that Apple now does as Microsoft forever is doing. Not finishing the products and putting it on the market or release it before it is finished and has bugs in it.
    Personally this irks me and annoys me. Because I am in that field for many years and have seen what grief it causes. I have noticed that an Administrator has removed another post that I made about other matters concerning iPads and especially with iPad 3 and 4 now and that there are also other people who make inflamatory remarks to people ( Julian Wright for e.g.)  about how they have to spend their money for the latest stuff of Apple and come over very aggressive, selfish, if not evil.
    For your information, I used to work for Apple, I know Apple inside and how they work and what they used to do ? They were really nice for their employees and customers. But I think that has changed now for whatever reason they have. Very disappointing. It's up to Apple not to listen, I have no control of that, but it will cost them at some point.
    Besides that point, I feel that some people are been taken for a ride and when I am expressing that this is not OK I should be rewarded for that instead of being rejected.

  • While I was updating my ipod touch there was an error and it said my ipod needed to be restored so I did that but I seemed to have lost all the photos I had on my ipod.  Is there anyway to get them back?

    While I was updating my ipod touch there was an error and it said I needed to restore my ipod.  I restored it from backup but I seem to have lost all my pictures that I had stored on there.  Is there any way to get them back?

    - Try restoring from a backup that include the photos. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you use PhotoStream you should be able to get the last 30 days worth from your PhotoStream. See:

    My notes won't open on my iPod touch 5 g it lags and closes everything else is fine I need my notes all my passwords are written there in my notes.

    If on a computer browser you go to icloud.com and sing in are you notes there? If so get them off.
    Next,
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>iCloud and delete the iCloud account from the iPod,. Note this does not delete the account, only deletes it from the iPod. Then sign back in.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Backup and then restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • I was wondering why the iPhone 5 has the option for a battery percentage and the iPod touch 5g doesn't? I mean... they are almost both the same thing... just the iPod does not have the phone.

    I was wondering why the iPhone 5 has the option for a battery percentage and the iPod touch 5g doesn't? I mean... they are almost both the same thing... just the iPod does not have the phone.

    One likely reason is the % battery is not that accurate because of the smaller battery capacity in the iPod compared to iPhone and iPad. Users why use a % battery app post that the % reading changes a lot.

  • Automatic Cursor Movement in one Graph, in accordance to the cursor in another graph

    I am using two XY graphs each with 4 cursors. I want to assign each cursor of graph A to each cursor of graph B such that the corresponding cursors in graph B moves in accordance to the cursors in graph A.
     I have used Active cursor, Cursor.PosX and it works for one cursor. However when I use the same concept to change the active cursor value and faciliate the automatic movement for all cursors they do not work.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    As requested I would like to post the solution as to how I tacked the problem. It was actually small mistake on my part. When I connect the two property nodes for each XY graphs I should connect ActiveCursor to ActiveCursor and Cursor.PosX to Cursor.PosX. What I did was connect the Active cursor of A graph to the cursor.index of B graph. I have attached a small screen shot of connecting the first cursor of A graph to the 1st cursor of B graph so that the cursor in B graph follows the cursor in A graph.
    In order to connect more cursors as in my case, the only change to be made is the change in the Acitve cursor constant to, 1,2,......
