Can't close Quicktime Windows!! CMD-W is not working

Hi
my quicktime did not close anymore..CDM-W is not working and neither can i see the red amber green icons on the top left..
there is no menu when i try to rightclick within the video.
the effect is dramatic that every time i open quicktime it automatically opens all the recent videos..
there is currently only the possibility to use alt cmd-q to close the application..
Did anybody also face this issue and did anybode knows how to fix this?

after searching some time in the internet i found the solution of this
I found the issue..
that the user has to post
this setting into a terminal window
defaults write com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX MGCinematicWindowDebugForceNoTitlebar 0
there is also another option to close windows everytime the applicatin is closed
this can be used..
defaults write com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

Can't close docs in preview; command + W not working

I created two "New from clipboard" images in Preview. I have no red button in the window to close them, but that might be my theme - I do have a gray button with an X. However, it doesn't work. Command + W also does not close them. I have cleared out my recent menu. I have quit and restarted preview, and quit and rebooted the computer.
Every time I open Preview these images open. I cannot save them directly as documents; I tried duplicating one in order to save it, hoping somehow that would make closing an option, but all it did was create a third image for Preview to irritatingly reopen. Images I've opened from existing documents do not behave this way and can be closed. Preview seems slowed down by this, since other commands don't work (Open, Save) and getting menus to appear is very slow.
This is my work computer and these images are getting in the way. Can someone help me out? Many thanks in advance!

Needless to say, you have landed in a very bizarre place.
Others might have better suggestions, but if this were happening to me, I think I would try to clear out the "Saved state" info for Preview. Here are some instructions:
Delete Specific Application Saved States from Mac OS X 10.7 Lion ...
Long shot - but harmless.

Can't close Safari windows

I can close tabs, but when I get to the final tab, I cannot close the window. Neither can I close any window with multiple tabs open, either by pressing the red close button or with CMD-W. I can minimize the window, however. I've tried resetting Safari and deleting prefs, all to no avail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Saul

HI Saul and welcome to Apple Discussions...
First, try restarting your Mac. If that doesn't help...
Your profile indicates you are running 10.4.11 with Safari 3.0.4
Tiger 10.4.11 minimum requirements for Safari is Safari 4 with the 2009-002 Security Update installed. Click Safari/About Safari to make sure which version of Safari you are runnig.
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

I can't close one window in Safari.

I can't close one window in Safari. I'm on an iMac 27", OSX 10.9.4 and using Safari Version 7.0.5. I have several windows open - one with the header in grey (as they appear when not selected) and am able to individually close the other windows. The problem window has several tabs. I cannot close that window. If I try to select it, the top bar remains grey. I've quit and restarted, run disc utilities, run permissions and no problems show. At a loss how to handle this. I do not have this problem with Firefox.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

How can I split the window in the document I work like I can in the Microsoft Word

How can I split the window in the document I work like I can in the Microsoft Word? So I can see in the same time the start and the end of the document!

I also agree it's a needed feature. I suggest you leave feedback for the Pages team regarding this. You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

My IPad cannot download live Tv from skygo. I have no problem with my lap top so I assume the broad band is okay. Can anybody suggest why the live streaming will not work on my iPad one.

Are you using the Sky Go app to try and watch it ? If so are you logged in with your Sky account ?
If you are using the app then you could try closing the app completely and see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Sky Go 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Sky Go app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Audigy Platinum Ex Windows 7 SPDIF IN not working

Audigy Platinum Ex Windows 7 SPDIF IN not working? I have an old Audigy Platinum Ex that has served me well, until now when I have a new Windows 7 x64 PC (RTM). SPDIF IN no longer works, though everything else does (including SPDIF OUT). I've tried the current and beta drivers for the card, and no difference.
In Windows Vista x64 I could use ASIO drivers with my M-Audio ProFire 60 while using the Audigy for PC audio. Most often this was for skype, which I would set to use SPDIF IN/OUT which I then connected to the ProFires SPDIF OUT/IN. Using the ProFire mixing tool, I could control which mics and levels went to the Audigy while not interfereing with the ASIO drivers recording the mics. The ProFire also recorded the SPDIF OUT from the Audigy to caputre the person on Skype to their own audio track. This is a podcast producer's heaven, and I miss it!
If it's a known issue (SPDIF IN / Win 7), I've had this card through 4 PC upgrades and it's served me well enough I don't mind buying new. The Creative Sound Blaster X-fi Elite Pro looks to be the current version of my Ex - are there any Windows 7 issues currently that would stop me from using it in the role above? I will miss the FireWire port, a shame they dropped that.

Well basically it is possible, and I've found this out. Apparently Dell released a driver or something that allows it to work, but then only if you install a 3rd party modified xp version of the creative suite. I don't remember where I found it, but it was through google... Using some term including x-fi, dts, and vista.... Can't seem to find it now. Anyway, it had a download for the whole creative suite that was modified from the xp version for Vista, however it was buggy as hell, caused driver issues and blue screens, and ended up causing me to have to reinstall Vista altogether again. In other words, it's possible, but I don't recommend it until it's officially supported... Don't know when this will be yet... *crosses fingers*
Luckily I've got a dual OS system with XP too, and I switch to that when I want to use my Xbox 360... However due to Microsoft also being terrible in that department... I now get entertainment off of its 3 red lights... (For those of you who don't know, 3 red lights = hardware error. Sending into microsoft for repair typically is a 2 month process... I'm still waiting on my prepaid shipping box to arri've and it's been 4 days... Will be a similar wait to get it to them, 4-6 weeks for them to actually repair, and another week or so to get it all shipped back). Although even when the console worked, my dsl modem sometimes cut out when playing on Xbox li've and dropped signals, reported errors, etc.
What is with the companies producing technology nowadays? I just want to play Gears in 5. on Xbox li've... *cries*Message Edited by Supercoolyo on 07-22-20070:54 AM

Windows media player will not work as no DVD driver

Had to format disk (trojan) & reinstall Windows XP home. Now Windows media player will not work as no DVD Driver, can I download from Toshiba site?

Hi
Usually the Windows media Player is not able to play DVD movies IF no plug-ins were installed.
To watch DVD movies you can use the programs like WinDVD or PowerDVD.
Such programs were designed especially for the DVD playing!
But you can also visit the Microsoft website and search for plug-ins for Windows Media player.
Then you could download and install it to play DVD with WMP

Windows Live Tiles are not working and refreshing

Hello,
I have looked for an answer but can't seem to find one so this is honestly my last resort. For some reason my Windows live tiles are not working nor refreshing. When I open my Netflix app for instance I get a playback error N8102, but I am strangely connected
to the internet. Oddly, however, Netflix does work well using firefox on the desktop.
I tried to check if I needed an app update for Netflix, but the Windows app store is not loading as well. Internet explorer app is not working, and IE on the desktop is taking too long to load. But firefox and chrome work perfectly well on the desktop.
Other problems that I have encountered are:
Microsoft Office 2013 is taking too long to open, and when it does it often crashes
I can't view my Windows Updates
Can't view control panel. It also crashes.
I am not sure what the problem is.

Hi GBell101,
Here I list these issues：
1. Windows Live tiles are not working
2. Netflix app not working error code N8102
3. Can’t open windows app store
4. Windows office 2013 often crashes
5. Can’t view Windows updates and control panel
Please share us more information for better analyzation:
1. What changes had you made before you met these issues?
2. Do you receive other error messages or code?
3. Do you mean we can’t open Windows updates and control panel or can’t find them?
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Install Silverlight on the computer and check if the Netflix issue persists.
2. Run the app troubleshooter, for more information, please refer to the following article.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/what-troubleshoot-problems-app
3. If the issue exists, we could conduct the system restore to restore Windows to a earlier point in time.

The "automatic Install" in the windows support software does not work. I cannot see the USB in Windows to manually start set up.
I have downloaded windows support software from Apple 3 time with the same result. Where can I get a clean copy of the Windows support software?

Did you correctly format your usb stick in accordance with the Boot Camp installation instructions? Go here to the Boot Camp System Requirements page, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634, look for your computer model/year and download the correct version of Windows Support software.
