  • Progress bar doesn't work if enableRedraw is false? Script UI

    Hi,
    I just noticed in Peter Kahrel's ScriptUI manual (version 2.0) this note:
    "Note: in scripts that use progress bars, you cannot set
    app.scriptPreferences.enableRedraw to false. If you do, the progress
    bar doesn't display correctly. This is on Macs only."
    Not having a Mac to test this on, I'm wondering what "doesn't display
    correctly" actually involve?
    Thanks,
    Ariel

    Thanks Uwe.
    Anyone who has a Mac and a spare moment, may I invite you to download
    the demo of the "Create Character Styles" script on my website:
    www.freelancebookdesign.com, under the "Scripting" tab.
    It has a progress bar and enableRedraw = false (hence my interest in
    this subject), and it never occurred to me to test it on a Mac.
    If someone could test it on their Mac and tell me what happens, that
    would be much appreciated.*

  • In the course of migration MacBook switched off due to low battery. After recharging progress bar doesn't change.

    In the course of migration MacBook switched off due to low battery. After recharging the progress bar doesn't move. How to continue the migration?

    I've never seen the Migration Assistant resume from sleep - for that matter I've never seen a computer go to sleep while MA was running. (If there's a next time, don't try this without the computer being plugged in.) You will probably have no choice but quit the migration and start over.

  • I can't use my Ipad because a pop up is asking me for my Apple ID password but when I write it and press Ok the pop up message keeps appearing! It doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad. I also have an Iphone and it is not doing this.

    I cannot use my Ipad because Im getting a pop up asking for my Apple ID password but when I enter it the pop up just keeps coming back and doesn't go away. It pops up every second it doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad not even turn on WiFi! The account and pasword are correct in fact I can use them fine on my Iphone. I have tried restarting my Ipad and turning it of, it doesn't work! What is happening and what can I do to fix it?

    Same problem for me.
    1. Cannot connect to wifi as icloud password pop up keeps appearing.
    2. tried deleting account. UNable to do so.
    3. tried resetting password by logging into apple id through desktop as mentioned in one of the responses in another thread. Unfortunately the apple id to be reset is the same as being prompted by icloud and hence unable to reset the same.
    Feel like breaking the **** ipad into bits. Stupid of apple to let such a bug in and not offer support !!

  • On my ipod touch i bought some music but when i go to download it on my pc it just comes up as downloaded and doesn't let me do anything with it

    On my ipod touch i bought some music but when i go to download it on my pc it just comes up as downloaded and doesn't let me do anything with it.As in it w'ont let me download it or anything like that.

    Make sure you have signed-in your iTunes and authorized the computer.
    Go to iTunes menu EDIT > PREFERENCES > DEVICES tab and check the Box "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically then OK.
    As long as you don't sync your devices, iTunes will not wipe out music from your iPod.  Now connect your iPod and do the Purchase transfer only.

  • A pop up appeared and it doesn't disappeared even though I press the "ok" of the pop up and it doesn't let me do anything else. I can't even turn it off. What can I do?

    A pop up appeared and it doesn't disappeared even though I press the "ok" of the pop up and it doesn't let me do anything else. I can't even turn it off. What can I do?

    This isn't the solution, but I would just let it run out of battery.
    It would turn off on its own then just start charging it again
    Hope this helped

    Hello Djegoo,
    I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone.  If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    As always, it is a good idea to create a backup before hand:

  • Progress Bar doesn't look correct in Windows 7

    I use a progress bar control and set ATTR_USE_PROGESS_BAR_VISUAL_STYLES attribute. It works perfect in Windows XP. The progress bar looks identical to Windows ones. Though now check how it looks in Windows 7. No matter either aero windows style is on or off, the progress bar looks very strange. It does not fill smoothly and fill not the whole control - the edges are left unfilled.
    I have attached the screenshot.
    Any ideas what do I do wrong?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I use VAL_PROGRESSBAR_MANUAL_MODE and call ProgressBar_Start (for any case).
    I call the updating routine manually and call ProgressBar_SetPercentage function.
    After calling it I call ProcessSystemEvents and ProcessDrawEvents (for any case).
    It does not matter either another control is shown over it ot it's own label is being placed over the progress bar. In both cases it is drawn incorrect.
    I noticed that it try to draw progress bar not a Windows 7 style (one filled green bar) but Windows XP (separated green bars) sometime. So perhaps there is a problem with progress bar drawing routine (just a speculation).
    I use CVI 2009 without SP1 (and I did not find a note about fixing something similar in SP1).
    As for the outline around the green portion of the progress bar. I do not mind, I just wanted to know if I do something wrong.
    Thanks for reply.

  • Blue Progress Bar Doesn't Finish

    Greetings!
    For the past three weeks, Safari has been tempermental in downloading web pages. The blue progress bar will get maybe 1/3 across and stop. No twirling ball, no freeze-up, I can stop and refresh...eventually it works. Sometimes there is no problem at all.
    It seems to be affecting IE and Firefox as well. Mail has also seem to be having trouble sending messages periodically.
    I've cleared the cache, history, favicons...so maybe it's something from outside of Safari??
    Also, no Internet Regulating programs and I have a cable modem connection.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • Safari 6 progress bar doesn't include images

    I've noticed this behavoiur on several forums. HTML is loaded and when it ends the blue progress bar beneath url is gone, Safari jumps the the anchor, but the images on page are still loading. I may look like the page is all set so I start scrolling but again when the images stop loading Safari jump again to the anchor which is extremly anoying. I've noticed this behaviour on Mountain Lion. On my mini at work, where I have Lion, everything is fine, so progress bar vanishes after loading whole page with images. Anyone noticed such a behaviour ? Any fix ?

    Click Go then move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari to test.
    That didn't fix it. Have you experienced my problem or did you just offer a common solution to any Safari problem?

  • I am on dial up. Can I get the progress bar for loading a page back it helps me know how things are going.

    On previous versions of Firefox there was a progress bar when you were loading a page. It was in the lower right corner. How can I get it back? It would be very helpful if there was an add on for it for those of us still on dial up.

    Be aware that the loading indication that you see doesn't represent a real indication of what is happening. It just starts increasing till about 50% of the bar is filled and if it takes too long then the steps get smaller (half what is left as available space in the end or stop at all).
    There is also the Net tab on the Web Console that can show how long it takes to load content.

  • MacBookPro doesn't let me do anything with thumb drives/etc

    Hello everyone.
    In Windows such simple tasks as deleting files from memory sticks/thumb drives, moving files back and forward/ etc. is an easy task which every kid can do. However, Mac makes another big deal out of nothing even here.
    I have an SD memory stick from my camera and a thumb drive. Photos need to be moved from the first one (SD) to another (thumb). Easy enough? Yeah, I'd think so. Mac has another opinion about that.
    It would not let me do ANYTHING with the thumb drive and/or SD. I tried all possible actions I could think of: move the files to the laptop first, copy-paste them, drag and drop, delete old files from the thumb drive (thinking that it doesn't have enough room for the new ones). Nothing. There is one answer: can't proceed with the operation, files can't be deleted blah blah blah. I tried some other memory sticks I had, thinking that the ones I originally used might had some problems. Nope, seems like Mac just don't like them all. Digging though System Preferences didn't bring much luck, I just can't find the proper settings in order to try to change them.
    Please help, it's just driving me nuts, I need to return the thumb drive with photos first thing tomorrow.
    I'm just so mad that I spent over $2000 on a laptop that makes a huge deal out of just anything! :'(

    Nothing that you report is normal with Macs. You have some sort of unusual problem on your machine. Instead of "blah blah blah," tell us exactly what error message(s) you're seeing and exactly what attempted actions produce each one..
