Can not click buttons or move windows

Hi there,
I have a strange problem. When I click the mouse in certain areas of the screen or within certain windows it does not have any effect. I can move icons around the screen but windows that are recently opened and which sit towards the left centre of the screen seem to be unresponsive to clicks.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Paula

Try running Firefox in safe-mode.
* Firefox -> Help -> Restart with add-ons disabled
If it works in safe-mode, that means one of your Add-on Extensions is causing the problem, which will require disabling them all, and then re-enabling them one by one to isolate the problem.
Edit:
I forgot to say this earlier, have you checked to see if all plug-ins are up to date?

Did you delete all receipts with iDVD in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder before installing the new copy? If not then do so and delete the new application also.

My mouse can not click to anything left, right or the middle mouse button does not work

I am using a 24 inch imac and the problem is suddenly my mouse can not click to anything left, right or the middle mouse button does not work i can see cursor moving and i can use the features of the keyboard but my mouse dies. I tried to plug in another mouse magic trackpad and my tablet but each has the same problem. I can not click to anything but cursor is moving and computer is not frozen. I have to shut it off from the power button when this happens. Do you have any idea what can cause this and how can i fix this?

Reset the SMC 2-3 times. Click Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets for instructions.

User troubleshooting steps as outlined in the manual include restart, reset, restore, restore as new. Have you tried any of these? Restart involves powering off your phone and powering back on. Reset involves the following procedure:
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

These ones are tricky. But the following instructions are worth a try.
First do a complete uninstall of iTunes and related components (but don't reinstall just yet), as per the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
a. Launch regedit (Start >> Search Programs and Files >> type Regedit and open the regedit that comes up.)
b. Access the following Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData \S-1-5-18\Components
c. Perform the following actions
i. Right Click on Components Folder
ii. Select Permissions
iii. Select Full Control and Read Permissions options
iv. Select Advanced Button
v. Select Owner Tab
vi. Select to Change Owner to the Administrators
vii. Check the option “Replace owner on subcontainers and objects”
viii. Select OK when prompted that it may not change all.
ix. Select Apply
x. Select Apply again
xi. Exit the Registry Editor
Now try reinstalling iTunes again. Does it go in properly this time?

I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.

I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone. I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added. So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them? It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

My iPhone 4 with iOS 6 is making me start to hate Apple. Any App and at any time I open and I can not view it or move for more than 2 minutes, they close themselves. During connections, it also gives this problem and the signal disappears after a few seconds back but often the person on the other end has hung up ... I can not stand it anymore, someone suggests something?
Besides these problems, there is the battery, which was bad got worse, she is not lasting more than 10 hours, even without using the phone.
Sometimes it even seems that the problem was solved, but my joy did not last long after I celebrate all the problems return, is incredible ...
thanks.
Sorry my bad Inglês.

Captivate TOC navigate visited slide only problem. Visited topic can not click when exit and open again the training.

Hi,
I have created the TOC and i want the learner just can click at the Topic they have visited. i have no problem at the first time viewing the training.
The problem is i read half of the training, for example I have Topic 1 - Topic 5, I just read until Topic 3 finish, then I exit the training. When i reenter the training, the Topic 1 - Topic 3 which i have already visited can not click, I can not review back those topic. At the TOC setting, I have enabled the Self-Paced Learning, Enabled Navigation, Navigate Visited Slides Only.
Is there any other setting I need to enable to make the learner can click at the topic they have visited when they exit and reopen the training?
Thanks,
Chee SK

I don't think you are understanding what I'm saying.
If you are using an LMS then the bookmarking you are currently using MUST be Resume Data bookmarking. It's the ONLY kind Captivate has that will work with LMSs.
If you are unable to navigate to a visited topic after resuming from the LMS then it's possible you've got some other setting in your project that is interferring with that navigation. For example, if you have NOT allowed Backward Movement in your Quiz Settings, then under certain circumstances that will mean you cannot navigate because resuming the lesson dumps you somewhere in the middle of the quiz and you're not allowed (by the settings) to go to an earlier slide.
Is that what you are seeing?

Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Can not open new blank tab window from file, new tab.In Tools/Options/Tabs I have ticked open new window in new tab?

The Ask Toolbar is probably causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Disable that extension or un-install it.

I am using the newest firfox 7.1 and i can not click on any tab or link within an inch below the toolbar.

Sorry to hear that.
Do you have a question?
If so, please explain your issue in far greater detail than "I Can not download the new movie and new videos I bought" and ask it.

The GB size of the download file is the compressed size (like .zip or .dmg). When the file is installed/uncompressed it can be 2-3 times larger.

W530 Can not see SSD (Bios or Windows Installation)

Hi all,
I have been workign on this for a bit now and can't see mto get it figured out. I referenced past threads on this forum for help, but so far no luck.
Basically I am tryign to install a new Samsung SSD into a W530, however, I can not get the Bios or Windows instalation to see it (when you select what driev you want to install windows on).
I can externally attach the SSD to my other laptop and see the drive. I can create partitions, format them, etc. But none of that helped my original issue.
I have also updated to the latest BIOS version, tried turning off UEFI, no luck.
Any ideas on what I am missign here to get this SSD to show up?
Thanks,
Jeryn
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Are you replacing the spinner in your W530 with the SSD? Main drive bay?
The side rails from the old spinner must be removed from the old drive and attached to the sides of the SSD, before putting it into the bay. However as is shown in the user manual, they actually must be attached "upside down" (or maybe inside out as well?? I forget now) for the SSD from the orientation that they had with the spinner. I assume this is because of a slight height difference in the two drives as far as where the rear electrical connector on the drive mates with the correnspinding connector inside the bay.
The reversal of the side rails will raise (or lower?) the SSD drive, so that its electrical connector meets the drive bay electrical connector properly. Now when you push in the SSD drive all the way, you're really making true electrical contact and presumably the SSD will now be seen.
With the side rails attached incorrectly, when you push the SSD all the way in, the drive electrical connector is completely missing the drive bay connector, and there is zero electrical contact. It's just sitting in the drive bay physcially.
I made this same mistake myself when installing my Samsung 840 Pro SSD to replace the factory 500GB spinner in my own W530. Played with this for an hour, before finally interpreting the picture from the user manual as an indication there were two different orientations of the side rails that were actually different, for spinner vs. SSD, and exactly what that meant in terms of attaching the rails to the drive before inserting it into the main bay.
