Anyone else compulsively hitting command-q in a Finder window? LOL

I know this is silly, but I can't stop hitting command-q to try and close finder windows - because it LOOKS like an application....
Anyone else experience this weird cross-purpose tick?

Ok - now that I've got my fingers going for option-space to bring up Spaces - my urge to command-q Finder windows has reduced a bit...

Anyone else get hit with a computer Influenza?

Recently my computer got infected with a nasty virus. I notice that when I go to lightroom I don't get the work window where I can adjust the photo before moving onto photoshop.
Can I download the Creative cloud program again to fix whatever problem this nasty virus may have damaged?
Confused & angry

Depends on the virus, I imagine.
Which virus is it?
Also - any particular reason why you haven't just tried what you're asking? You're not going to break anything or make things worse...

IS anyone else having the new Messenger trying to find iChat when you start?

Everytime I start Messenger in Mountain Lion, the app attempts to open iChat, but cannot find it since it no longer exists. I am looking for a way to stop this annoying quirk.

I think I have the same problem.
Apple TV 2. I can watch stuff I downloaded a while ago, but after I downloaded a season of a TV show on Friday night (Oct 28), I got the "Authorization Required" message. Ruined my Friday night trying to troubleshoot this, and found a bunch of posts on this forum about Apple's Servers being down can cause this. Since I'd done nothing different to my setup, I assumed that indeed "Apple's servers being down" was causing my grief.
It's now Oct 31st, and I'm still getting the error on the newly-downloaded stuff. So either Apple's servers are having serious grief (and passing it on to me!) or else there might be something else after all.
I've de-authorized and re-authorized my computer (I never thought for a second it would help because I can play "older stuff". Everything in my TV shows folder is bought from iTunes - i.e., it's all completely legit. We haven't even vacuumed behind the TV(!!) so we haven't disturbed anything... And the key info is that I can play stuff purchased prior to Oct 28th, but the stuff I purchased on Oct 28th hets the "Authorization required" message.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I just bought a ZEN. Anyone else got one? Where does one find documentati

Hello any and all,
I just took it out of the package and tred to follow the instructions in the quick start but after choosing the region,country,& language the link goes nowhere and says the requested document doesn't exist. It doesn't seem to be on any database I can access at creative.com. Does anyone know if it's called something else?

The weather widget does not come on the iPad like it does on the phone and the iPod Touch. There are tons of weather apps in the apps store and lots of them are free.
Have a look around the app store - I'm guessing that youwill find one that you like.

Has anyone else noticed that iBooks search does not find all information that should be located for a specific search criteria?

I am converting a novel to ePub format. I am currently in the process of adding "end notes" to the book. Each will have a flag embedded at the proper spot in the various chapters that is coded as "[See End Note xx]" where xx is a one or two digit number. Each of the flags has those words surrounded by the HTML that links the flag to the proper end note at the back of the book.
To verify that I have indeed inserted correctly each end note, I copy the book's epub file from my desktop PC to the iPad. I then do a search in iBooks to locate each occurance of "[See End Note" or just "End Note". I should see each of these flags listed. Last night it would list all of them except "[See End Note 28]"! If I did a search for "28", it would appear.
I then copied just the flag itself ("[See End Note 28]") without the associated linkage HTML to the back of the document, and placed the copy just in front of the paragraph that contains it. Neither of the two flags were found.
I then duplicated just the flags for end notes 27 and 29 which the search function had located. I placed the copies surrounding the copied flag for 29. The result was as follows in the text of the book:
[See End Note 27]
[See End Note 28]
[See End Note 29]
Although 27 and 29 were still being shown in their normal places, none of the above three inserted (test) flags was displayed by the search!
It seemed that the iBooks search goes through part of the book, but cannot take the whole book in one piece. It then continues, but leaves a gap that is not scanned per the search criteria. To test that theory, I removed the entire text of several chapters that did not contain any end notes. I then loaded this modified copy of the book into the iPad. When I ran a search using "End Note", all of the flags (including the special test flags) were displayed. The list included the "missing" "[See End Note 28]" that cannot be found if the all of the chapters have their text!
I shall be calling Apple in a few minutes to again attempt to get the apparent "bug" (aka design or coding flaw) removed such that it does not
impact the ability of the iPad to be a useful tool.

Not all movie studio signed up to the agreement with Apple to allow redownloading of movies, only those that did will have their movies available in the purchased section of iTunes.

Anyone else having trouble installing ADE4 onto PC with Windows 8.1?

Anyone else getting tacked on ads? ( ie Fix Windows 7 Errors)

I keep getting ads tacked on as separate pages. They seem to be from PCKEEPER from Zeobit. Plus some others. Any one know of a way to stop these? I've run Spyhunter but they keep popping up.

Hello,
If these are appearing only on certain sites, consider using an adblocker such as [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Adblock Plus].
If these ads appear all the time no matter where you are browsing, sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer that you may not be aware of. Check your add-ons for any suspicious extensions:
* Tools (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]]) > Add-ons > Extensions
Check your list of install programs in Windows - Control Panel > Programs and Features. Usually malware comes bundled with other applications, so if you sort by date and see several applications installed at the same day, it may be easier to find suspicious applications that way.
You can also try the Reset Firefox feature which can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information. Note: After resetting Firefox, you will lose any extensions, toolbar customizations, and some preferences. See the [[Reset Firefox - easily fix most problems]] article for more information.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://general-changelog-team.fr/en/downloads/viewdownload/20-outils-de-xplode/2-adwcleaner AdwCleaner] (for more info, see this [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ alternate AdwCleaner download page])

Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article. It is always a good idea to scan with more than one scanner as they use different search methods and improve your detection rates.

Updated to ios7. Ipad decided it wanted a password, after a day of ios7, and after exhausting all options it "disabled" itself. Tried all the Apple suggestions. No luck. Anyone else have this problem and did you find a solution?

Nothing about 7compensates for this betrayal.

I read the set up information after the update. When it asked if I wanted to add password I said no.

HT202157 Not all my movie purchases are showing up, does anyone else have this problem?

With the new software update for apple tv, it now supports movie purchases on cloud. It only worked with some of my movies. I still have 4 that are not showing up that I bought from iTunes. Is there a glitch in the system? Is anyone else having this issue?

Go look again and notice the text right under the buttons to purchase. All the Jurassic Park and Back to the Future movies say they are not availabl for iTunes in the Cloud:
There is nothing to "fix" since Apple does not control the copyrights for these movies; the copyright holders do. You'll need to talk to them about making these purchases available to iTunes in the Cloud.
If you go back and re-read this entire thread you'll see that not all movies studios have signed on to iTunes in the Cloud, and even those copyright holders who have signed on will not make all of their content available to iTunes in the Cloud.

Hyperlinks won't load in 6.0 unless my laptop's cursor is in motion. Anyone else having this issue?

Hello, I upgraded from 5.0 to 6.0 today, and I noticed that my pages weren't loading unless I moved my cursor. It was obvious Firefox was gathering the right information because it displayed the "I'm thinking" cursor, but the pages I had just clicked on wouldn't load until I moved my cursor. For pages that loaded in multiple layers, like Wikipedia articles, I had to sit there making little touchpad circles until my pages fully came up. This was happening on every page. Now I've reinstalled 5.0 and I'm having no problems whatsoever, so it was only in 6.0. Has anyone else had this experience?
I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 1545 with no hardware mods. My interface and drivers are all up to date as far as I know, and I never had touchpad issues before.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Is anyone else having trouble with bookmarks in Windows Safari 4?

Is anyone else having trouble with their bookmarks in the Windows version of Safari 4? The Bookmarks Bar imported when I upgraded from Safari 3.2.2. But the Bookmarks menu can't be seen when I click the icon that looks like an open book. The History & Bookmarks Menu present in cover flow (which by the way I love and have found very useful). But the Bookmarks Menu option remains blank. At first I thought it hadn't imported - but I've realised they have imported, just aren't displaying.
They are definately imported because the same Bookmarks Menu is still present on my iPhone through MobileMe synch. Also I can get to the bookmarked pages by clicking Alt-Bookmarks. All the bookmarked pages are there (along with being on my iPhone). So they've imported - they just don't display in Coverflow (or any view at all) when I click the open book icon.
Does anyone have any solutions please.

Ok I have a fix for that....
I just figured this problem out for myself with a friend]
==============================================================
CLOSE SAFARI
go to MY COMPUTER
C:
Documents and Settings
Your name
Application Data
Apple Computer
Safari Folder
Delete BOOKMARKS.PLIST
( Now I have to warn you this WILL DELETE your bookmarks from Safari so back them up before you do this )
NOW........
go back and IMPORT your bookmarks
take all your bookmarks from the "IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX " folder and drop them into the BOOKMARKS MENU at the top ( not the folder just your bookmarks)
NOW DO NOT DELETE the Imported on xx/xx/xxxx folder
for some reason when you delete the IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX folder.... It causes them to go missing under BOOKMARKS MENU
SO as long as you dont delete the IMPORTED ON xx/xx/xxxx folder they will stay in the BOOKMARKS MENU where you can manipulate them
ALSO... DO NOT DELETE the IMPORTED FROM INTERNET EXPLORER
or IMPORTED FROM NETSCAPE/ MOZILLA FOLDERS
that will also cause your bookmarks menu bookmarks to go missing too
I guess this is a temp. fix for now
Thanks,
Christopher

Hey! I had the same problem you did just today when I was trying to get my second iPhone to sync. What you need to do with music or anything extra that you doing you have to creat a second playlist or picture or anything that you would like to use, so that you can add to the second device that you are going to be using. I am not sure if that will help but it helped me out a lot!! Good luck!

HT1222 I just wish we had a "backwards" half circle to hit when we need to go back one page. Does anyone else feel the same way? How did I find this page anyway?

My new 5G iPod touch is much slower to respond th touch commands than my old 4Gen. Anyone else have this problem?

The reponse time after a touch command on my new iPod 5th Gen, 64GB is painfully slow, especcially when compared to my iPod touch 4th gen iOS6. Anyone else experiencing this? From Grumpy Troll.

My is quite responsive. However, I had a corrupted iCloud sync file that were looping using constant CPU and draining batterie life (there another post related to this). So, it is possible that something went wrong if you had restored the new iPod using previous backup.
First, you should try to quit any open apps by double-clicking home button, tapping and holding on an opened apps and then closing them all.
Second, do a restart by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button.
If this doesn't solve the issue, you may take a look here to get more info:
Settings General -> About -> Diagnostics & Usage -> Diagnostics & Usage Data and look at crash reports. Is there many recent, recurring crash from specific apps, etc.
If nothing special there, you can try to restore like a new iPod to see if it get more responsive. If it does, it probably means that you got an issue with your backup. Retry the restore from your backup to see if it get again less responsive. That would confirm wether or not you got such issue.
Let us know the outcome of these trials.
PS: since it a new device, you may also get help from Apple service either by phone or at a genius bar.

There is a conflict with third party software or your system keyboard shortcuts. Lately, there have been many postings about conflicts with Chrome extensions so check there first.
It's not a new problem. I wrote about it on InDesignSecrets.com in 2006:
