Access Privileges Button does not bring up pop-up Menu -- SOLUTION

Hi. I was puzzling for a long time over why my Access Privileges Button did not work under System Preferences // Sharing on the Apple Remote Desktop Panel. I tried re-installing the Remote Desktop Bundle, removing System caches and so forth but nothing fixed it.
The culprit was that somehow the following support file was missing: RemoteDesktop.bundle inside of the following directory: /System/Library/PreferencePanes/SharingPref.prefPane/Contents/Resources .
I copied the file from another MacBook by selecting System/Library/PreferencePanes/SharingPref.prefPane in the Finder and then using the option menu to select Show Package Contents.
I hope this will help anyone else who has run across this problems. Thanks.

Thankyou VonHamhorse. I was met with the same problem.. EXACTLY. Your solution worked. My situation involved two Intel iMacs. Pre-sharing pane problems, I deleted the extra user from the iMac in question. (I was having to enter in an admin name and password everytime I upgraded the software. I found by deleting the second user that was installed by an ARD Admin package, I no longer had to enter in two sets of confirmations for each time I upgraded software.) However, after that deletion, I no longer could access the iMac via ARD Admin. I was working on that iMac tonight and decided to check out the "Sharing Control Panel" when I discovered I had no drop down menu. A quick search in discussions brought up your solution and in minutes, I had control again! Hopefully I'll be able to rectify my connection now.. Thanks again.

ALT space does not bring up pop up menu

HI,
For most applications if I press alt spacebar I get a pop-up menu appearing on the top left corner of my applications (i.e by the title bar) which gives me the options to restore, minimise or close my application.
Thus without using my mouse I can minimise my application.
How in java do I get this popup menu appearing on the top left corner of my frame?
Regards
Colette

Hi,
that is a platform specific thing - you use Windows as it seems. And that is also not specific to Swing, so it would be a good idea perhaps, to ask that in the "Programming Java" forum.

Home button does not bring me to the home screen

I bought an iPod Touch 16GB in the beginning of june. It was a gift, and has not been in use until yesterday. The home button is totally unresponsive. Pushing the home button will not give any respons at all. Whenever I launch an app, I'm stuck there, until I shut the device off or reset it.
We felt this might be a softwareproblem. The software was upgraded to 3.1.2
The iPod is fully charged. I have done a restart and a reset several times. All of the content on the iPod (music was the only thing put into it, no apps) is removed. I have reset all settings and the software is restored several times using the restore button in iTunes.
I can do a "hard reset" (holding down the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time for 10 sec will give me the expected respons). So it seems the home button hardware is working.
I still believe this is some sort of software error. I have done everything suggested by Apple to sort out the problem, but nada!
This is a brand new iPod, it has never been used and I obviously will take it to the store and I am sure it will be fixed or replaced.
BUT: Does anyone have any suggestions, in case there are something I should have tried out first?

One more thing before you take it back to the store - try a restore. You will do this from within iTunes. Since you really don't have app data to concern yourself with, do a "restore as new". This will wipe it clean and reinstall the firmware. You can then sync to add everything back to it.

MODEL OF THINK PAD, IBM 2373-G5U T40P

Hi Tom. I just went through the same issue with my T42p. After uninstalling/downloading/reinstalling the Access IBM software it still didn't work so I found my way here. At first my visit didn't seem promising but I did a search of the forum for Access IBM and found a post in which somebody suggested installing the ThinkVantage System Update utility. I did that, rebooted and accessed the utility through the start/programs menu and installed 3 critical updates, rebooted again, et voila, Access IBM is fully functional. I've since gone back there a couple more times and am in the process of doing a fairly large download of optional updates. It appears to be a cool utility that even allows for setting up automatic updating. Kudos to whoever posted that link.

At least I'm fairly sure this is where I went to download the thing. Took a couple of tries to successfully flash the bios but all seems fine now. If you do decide to do this and also to flash the bios do yourself a favor and have your machine plugged into your AC adapter with a fully charged battery *before* you start that particular drill.

HT1918 I am trying to change the country of id on my apple store payment details. The button does not bring up options, just resets itself. I need to change the country as I have moved and payment is no longer valid, I can't download any new apps. Help

I am trying to change the country/ region on my store account. When I press the 'change country/region' section in 'my account' it does nothing.... I have moved country, so I cannot enter valid details of payment and so the store is refusing all app requests.
Has anyone a way around this please?

Before you can change countries in iTunes, you will need to have a valid payment information addressed in Ireland. When you have one, you can go ahead and change the country on your account.
- sign in to iTunes
- go to Account Information page
- enter your Apple Id and password
- click on Change country or Region
- enter your new information then save
If you will have a hard time, I suggest contacting email support.

Double click home button does not bring up Search

I installed OS 3.0 on my first generation iPod Touch. On the Settings | General | Home, I selected Search. When I double click the home button, I get the "Dock Connector" dialog. Am I missing something?

RESOLUTION- First, enter "Settings" and select "General". Then, scroll down to "Home". Then, flip the switch that says "iPod Controls" (so it is off). Once your are done with that, select what you want a double-click of the Home button to be.

The 'Reimport from Camera / Archive' button does not appear in my file menu.

My last attempt to import material from my camera was interupted so not all the footage was imported to iMovie. I have re-attached the camera to try and reimport and the message on iMovie says that I should select the 'Reimport from Camera / Archie' option from the File Menu. Unfortunately, there is no such option in my file menu. I am using the latest version of iMovie 10.0 and my camera is a Panasonic HX-DC3. Help?

i wasn't even interupted, it told me it had imported everything from my gopro then i aimlessly went onto edit. ejected the gopro, went down stairs. came up to continue only to find half of the vids missing from the project screen. telling me the file was missing as it was still on the camera. so i went to import again. it told me done. no not done still on camera only. then when i go to consolidate event files it tells me they are already there. no not there. i went to share finish project (after pluging gopro back in and finishing project with half the vids in the libary and the other half stillon the camera) it lets me share to the new iMovie theater but when i go to youTube it it tells me it cant as half of the files are still on the camera.
i hover over the camera icon on the video file in the project screen where it pops up a info window telling to reimport from camera/archive......... from the file/menu...
hm hmmmm
nowhere to be found.
think you forgot a few things apple.........

.Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].

HT1430 My ipad mini is frozen in an app and the home button is stuck. Pressing down on the sleep/wake button does not give me the red slider to turn the ipad off. Is there any other way I can reset?

My ipad mini is frozen in an app and the home button is stuck. Pressing the wake/sleep button does not bring up the red slider to turn the ipad off. Is there any other way I can reset the ipad? Can I remove the battery? and then put it back in?

No the battery is non removable.
Try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

HT201401 How can i reset my iphone if the Sleep/Wake button does not work?

My camera shuts off every time that I try to take a picture. I would like to reset my IPhone in order to try and solve the problem. My Sleep/Wake button does not work.
How can I reset my IPhone without the Sleep/Wake Button working?
Thanks for the help.

When pressing the sheep/wake button, the iPhone's screen is not turned off if on and does not turn on if off, and pressing and holding the sleep/wake or on/off button does not bring up slide to power off?
And you can't do a reset by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
If so and there is no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby since more than likely there is a hardware problem.

HT202667 The "edit" button does not pop up next to my Apple ID and Primary Email Address

The "edit" button does not pop up next to my Apple ID and Primary Email Address. I want to change my address because its an old @mac.com address and I want to update it with my @gmail.com. I'm guessing this is an apple support question, but I would like to just get it fixed.

Just making sure we are comparing Apples to apples, so to speak.
If this is NOT what you see at My Apple ID - then Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
It seems that for SOME folks it takes contact with a live person at Apple - can't explain why though. One person replied that after contacting Apple, they were instructed to email [email protected] with old and new. I never heard back if that was successful or not - just that the email was instructed.

My assist button does not access vaio care any more help

need help assist button does not activate vaio care any more please help me

Hi westlyeaton,
Welcome to Sony Community!
I believe you were referring to Vaio Care Rescue Mode, right? To access the recovery partition. Is the Assist button stuck from being pressed?
Try to Power Cycle the laptop - Remove the battery and all peripherals -> press and hold the power button for 5 seconds OR, if the battery is not removable, remove all peripherals-> look for a battery off button on the bottom of the laptop -> push the button for 5 seconds
Try to press the Assist button while the unit is on. There are certain models where Vaio Care (Desktop) will open when pressing Assist while the computer is on. Then test while the unit is off.
Let us know if this will work.
Thanks,
Vincent

Verizon does not fix/repair/replace devices.
Apple provides all hardware support in the US.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.
FYI, they do not fix devices, so backup your device prior to going to the store.

The itunes application icon on my dock does not bring up itunes. I have no problem accessing itunes from my iphone though, so I believe it is computer related rather than an itunes issue. Haven't had this problem before.

Does the icon in your dock look like this?
Can you open iTunes successfully from your Mac's Applications folder?
Are you running the current version of iTunes (11.2.2)? If not, get it from here:

Open Task Button does not come in Outlook

I have a three level approval workflow in which each level an email is generated to the approve to approve or reject.
But suddenly the Open Task Button does not pop up in Outlook 2010 anymore can you tell me why?
Srinivasan Kidambi

had the same issue with External users not using Outlook. This is how I fixed it:
Open the task list that the workflow is using and connect it to Outlook. Then kick off a workflow to make a new task. Once the task is made open the task from Outlook. The bottom options (review, perform the specific req. for the task, and Open this task)
are now links. Hover your mouse over the link and you will see the address.
Now open SPD, connect to your site and open the work flow assc. to the doc lib.
Start editing the workflow and click the "Approval" link
Click "Change the behavior of a single task"
You are going to have to look for all the instances of "then e-mail task notification to "Current Task:Assigned to"
Open "Current Task:Assigned to"
Click where you want he link to go and hit the Hyperlink button
name the link whatever you want, then hit the string builder ("..." button)
Copy the link from the Task in Outlook into the string builder (if you use External addressing you can also hard code the External address).
At the very end of the link where is says ID=(then a number) delete the number and DO NOT put a space. Click the Add or Change Lookup button and use "Current Task: Approval" "ID" "As String" and click ok. Should like this:
Now this will not pop the form up, but it will send the user straight to the task form (might have to enter username and password) for the correct task. Remember to do this to all the "Current Task:Assigned to" in the workflow. It sounds like a chuck of
work but it does not really take thaty long on the OOTB Approval workflow.
Just wanted wanted to add my two cents.
