Can't edit settings.

When I try to edit settings on anything I can't. For example, when I go to tools, options the window opens and I can't selct anything. When I hover the mouse over the icons or buttons they highlight, but when I click the mouse button it doesn't work. I can't even shut down the browser with the red square, I have to shut down via task manager. It started after I added the Windows Media Player add on. I tried to remove it, but I can't because the exact same thing happens when I open the Add on menu!! It happens to everything from the top menu.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I installed windows media player add on

-14120 is a Permission error. When was the last time you successfully made a change? What version of OS X Server and Workgroup Manager are you running?

How can I edit the privacy settings for my daughters Apple ID.

My daughter has forgotten her privacy settings. She has $80 in credit and would like to use them. How can she edit her privacy settings?

What do you mean by 'privacy settings' ?
If you mean the Settings > General > Restrictions passcode on her iPad then was it on the iPad when she last backed up ? If not then she can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when she last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and she can then re-sync your content back to her iPad - she won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.
If you mean the answers to her security questions, then if she has a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on her account then the steps on this page will give you a reset link on her account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170
If she doesn't have a rescue email address (she won't be able to add one until she can answer her questions) then sher will need to contact Support in her country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if she doesn't already have a rescue email address) sher can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620

How can i edit APN settings on 4s

how can i edit APN settings on 4s

The above post won't help you.
The iPhone already contains the correct APN settings for all supported carriers, & any updates to those settings are done automatically. Fact is, most carriers don't want users messing with these settings. As far as a carrier adding itself to this database, if not supported, doesn't work that way.
If you have an officially unlocked iPhone, & you're trying to use it with a non-supported carrier, you're gonna have to manually edit these settings. Directions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2283
And here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4839
Or, you can go here:
http://www.unlockit.co.nz/unlockit/
That web site contains a collection of APN settings for non-supported carriers.

Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings to change

Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings within Yahoo or within my iphone to alter editing options.
How can I get access to edit and delete the Yahoo calendar from my iphone? I never schedule anything from the Yahoo webpage. All my appointments and reminders are scheduled from the iphone.
iOS 4.2.1 (8C148a)

My Yahoo email account worked just fine on my iPhone 4S for the last 2 months. Then this morning I started receiving the apple.imap.mail,yahoo error. I tried all of the steps above in solving the yahoo email issue including numerous hard re-sets and deletions of my yahoo account settings without any success. So I gave up trying to use the default Yahoo setup option. I added my Yahoo account back as an "other" type email account and then had the option to choose to set it up as a "POP" account instead of an IMAP type. I then just used the server settings recommended from Yahoo Help for a Yahoo Plus Email POP (or just google yahoo plus email pop settings). This works and I am back in business.
I'm not sure if this will work for yahoo mail classic accounts.
Frustrating that this issue seems to have been going on for quite awhile and Apple still as not made any acknowledgement of this issue or proposed a fix for those of us that can not resolve the issue with a reset.

Is there a way i Can lower resolution settings to edit smoother?

I am sure this is a noob question, but I do not use After Effects a ton. Partly because editing is always such a drag. I am currently working off of a 2010 mac book pro until I invest in a quality editing machine.
I know editing and playback in true resolution in real time is ideal, but my laptop cannot handle that.
Is there any way I can make editing in after effects smoother. Even if the project looks low res and I can out put at apporpiate resolution later???
Thank you.

That, and a whole lot more, is covered in the resources linked here: optimizing for performance: Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects

How can I edit the default settings for the Email button?

I saw this question posted for February and as yet still unanswered. So I am now asking it again.
I do not want to use my .mac account email address in my website. I want it linked to my domain. I have found no specific instructions for changing the default. Also my drag down "Link to" menu in the Inspector does not work.
Thanks........

While you can't edit the default email address in iWeb, there is a workaround which may suit.
In Safari, locate a web page which has iWeb's email button on it (if you've already published a site, one of your own web pages is ideal). Control-click on the button and select 'Add Image to iPhoto Library'. Drag this image from the Media Browser to your iWeb page, select the image, and use the Link inspector to enable it as a hyperlink linking to 'An Email Message'. Enter whatever email address you like in the To box and a Subject for the message if you wish.
To make things easier, create an iWeb library in iPhoto and add the email button to it for handy access.

How can I edit an html file in Firefox using View Source?

I have created an html webpage and saved it to my pc. I can't edit the html file in firefox when I right click on the page and select "View Source". I can view the code but I can't edit it. I can do this in IE9.
I thought I was able to do this before in Firefox.
Did my settings change somewhere that I can no longer do this?
Do I have to have something checked in the Web Developer extensions for it to work?
I'm using Firefox 24.0
Thank you for any help with this. :)

The View Source window in Firefox cannot be used to change computer codes. Nor can the Web Developer tools.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
I suggest using Programmer's Notepad.

I can't edit my contacts on my iPhone 4, after upgrading to iOS 5

After updating my iPhone 4 to the iOS 5.1.1, I can't edit my contacts or add any new contacts. Can anybody help me with this? Thank you.

Try this:
Settings>iCloud>Contacts>On...see if you can edit now...if so, you can go back into Settings & turn this off, if you like.

HT204053 I changed my apple id, but my ipad does not allow me to change it for Icloud, so I can't edit my account so I can access Icloud. I was told at Apple store that I could use both Apple ids, but my old one is no longer recognized. Any suggestions?

I changed my apple id, but my ipad does not allow me to change it for Icloud, so I can't edit my account so I can access Icloud. I was told at Apple store that I could use both Apple ids, but my old one is no longer recognized on the appleid website, so my password for my old apple id won't work.
Any suggestions?

If you only changed the name of your ID rather than creating a new ID, just go to Settins>iCloud and tap Delete Account then sign back in with the new name. (Deleting the account from your phone does not delete it from iCloud. Your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.)
If you created a new ID, you'll have to go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone. (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.) After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Next, set up a new iCloud account using your other ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to your new account.
You won't lose any photos in your camera roll or photo library. If you have any photos in your photo stream that are over 30 days old that are not in your camera roll or saved on your computer, be sure to save these to the camera roll before deleting the account. To do so, open the photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you need to save to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

How can I edit photos in iPhoto in Photoshop Elements? I select PE in iPhoto preferences but they stay in iPhoto for editing.

Here's something you can try with a copy of your current library.
1 - go to iPhoto's Events preference pane and set the auto split option to 1 day per even.
2 - go the the Events mode, select all Events.
3 - go to the Events menu and and select Autosplit Selected Events.
which will give you an event for each day.
4 - again select all events (although it might be better do to fewer at a time) and export them to your desired destination via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with the following settings:
The workflow above will produce a folder for each days photos with the date as the folder's title.

How can I edit the same photo in multiple LR catalogs?

Hi Forumworld,
I would like to edit the same photo in multiple LR catalogs. Before you say "don't", there are many reasons why I'd like to do this. I am a working professional photographer and LR is one of the many tools in my workflow. I essentially want to organize my catalogs according to two different principles: once by year and once by theme. As in, a catalog each for 2014, 2015, 2016. But also one where I can group all of my wedding photos, for instance. I have several reasons for not throwing all of them together into one catalog.
I know that LR is essentially non-destructive, making this an uphill battle. But: if I do something like set all LR catalogs involved to Automatically Write Changes into XMP, should that a) be visible by any catalog and b) sync properly? As in: once the photo is imported to both Catalog A to Catalog B, can I edit it in A and see those changes - including developing, but also flagging etc. - in B? And vice-versa?
Thanks for your help,
Adam

Hi All,
thanks for the various answers. I've considered most of what was written already, but the gem in all this that I was looking for was from John's answer:
You will also lose some of your work (xmp doesn't record flags, stacking, virtual copies, history steps...). So for one thing you specifically mentioned, flagging, you can't sync it across multiple collections
This is consistent with what I've experienced - I wanted to find out if there was a way to not loose some of my work. The goal was to find a way that everything would sync automatically & properly so that I would always access the identical image from various catalogs. This is what I thought XMP would do - but I experienced that it didn't and now I understand that it won't do it properly, regardless of the settings. Flags were exactly the piece of information I was missing when I tried this.
I am surprised that everyone is telling me to use one Catalog. I am sorry but I don't believe that it will scale - because that is not what I have experienced. When my LR4 catalog got to about 50,000 images, it slowed down dramatically. Has something big changed in LR5? I have read many threads about this, most seem to say that already in LR4 it shouldn't have slowed down, but it did. No, my hard drive wasn't full. I just shoot a lot, mostly with a D800.
Thanks,
Adam

How can I edit lightroom 5 smart previews on mac book pro (mbp) when the lightroom 5 master image files are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp

How can I edit lightroom 5 smart previews on mac book pro (mbp) when the lightroom 5 master image files are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp? So far when I try to disconnect the external HD from the mbp, I get the following pop up window: The disk "external hard drive A" couldn't be ejected because "Lightroom" is using it. Quit that application and try to eject this disk again. When I do that and restart Lightroom 5, the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Select Catalog screen pops up but doesn't list my external hard drive A as a choice.
I've reviewed Adobe's Lightroom Help | Smart Previews Lightroom 5 web page and still haven't been able to figure what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Your internal HDD. by default, is named 'Macintosh HD'. From what information you supplied, it looks like there is already a Lightroom catalog installed on you local (internal) HDD using the standard naming convention Adobe uses as well as a Lightroom catalog on your external drive which you created. To be sure of which catalog Lightroom is loading when it starts up, To do this, start Lightroom as you normally would. After it starts, select the Lightroom menu item, then select the Catalog Preferences item and finally, navigate to the General tab. The Location information will tell you exactly what catalog Lightroom is opening by default. This will likely be the Photography Mac Book Pro Versions catalog on your external HDD. Once that is confirmed, you are ready to proceed. As an additional test/verification, you can shut down Lightroom and, this time, start Lightroom while holding down the ALT/OPTION key. This will cause Lightroom to pause and display a screen which will allow you to chose a different catalog to open. Navigate to the /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder and select the Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file. When Lightroom comes up, there should be no previews or folders as this catalog should be empty. Now you can be certain which catalog is being used and which catalog has all your data and you are ready to migrate your current catalog. Shut down Lightroom.
To migrate your current catalog, use Finder to locate your Photography Mac Book Pro Versions folder on your external drive. Select the folder and select COPY from the context menu. Next, use Finder to navigate to the /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder on you internal HDD. You can start at the Macintosh HD level and work your way down by opening each level (Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures). Select the /Pictures folder and then select PASTE... from the context menu. When the COPY/PASTE is complete, you should see the following files on the Macintosh HD:
Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom/ and
Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions
The Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder will contain the empty default catalog the Adobe created when Lightroom was installed and Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions will contain a copy of the catalog you created on your external HDD.
You are almost done now. Make sure your external drive is still attached for this step. Restart Lightroom using the ALT/OPTION key again. When the Select Catalog screen appears, select the Choose a Different Catalog button (lower left side). When you do, a Finder window will open to allow you to navigate to a catalog of your choosing. Navigate to Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions and select the file Photography Mac Book Pro Version.lrcat. This is the copy you just created. Select the Open button and Lightroom should start. You should see all of your previews and settings just as before. Also, in the left hand panel, all of your folder should show up and none of them should be dimmed and none of your previews should display a small exclamation point badge. Either a dimmed folder name or an exclamation point badge indicates that Lightroom can't find the associated image file. If everything looks good, go to the Lightroom menu, select Preferences and then select the General tab. Under Default Catalog, select an option to either load the LAST catalog opened or select the Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions catalog from the drop down. Shut down Lightroom and then restart it normally. This time, when Lightroom starts, you should be viewing the new copy of your catalog. You can confirm this by looking at the General tab on the Catalog Preferences screen (Lightroom/Catalog Preferences menu items). Shut down Lightroom once again and this time, eject your external drive before restarting. This time, your folders in the left hand panel will be dimmed but you should be able to work with your smart previews. If Lightroom should display a Select Catalog screen with the external drive detached, double check your settings as it indicates Lightroom is still looking at the copy of the catalog on the external drive rather than the new copy you made.
Finally, if you are seeing dimmed folders and/or exclamation point badges with the external drive attached, this indicates a problem. You can select any folder and select Update Folder Location from the context menu. This will allow you to navigate to the copy on the external drive and select it. Lightroom will then update the catalog (select to synchronize the content). This will not only clear the dimmed folder problem but also remove the exclamation point badges for all photos in that missing folder. However, it may indicate that not all went well with the copy of the catalog so make sure to verify all went well. You can use the Get Info option on the two folders. You should see the same number of files/folders for both the copy on the internal drive as well as on the external drive but you can't rely on the byte count because of the possibility of differences between the geometry of the two drives. Hope this all helps!

How Can I Edit a Gantt?

We have a "Project Details" PDP and I believe our "Project Portfolio" gantt view on our home page is based off of that. In SharePoint, I can edit a gantt. But, I cannot seem to edit the gantt inside Project Portfolio (receive
an error message that it cannot be edited). I opened the gantt view settings and I did not see anything about "read only", etc.
We have about 100 projects (simple metadata for them like #, name, start date, stop date, etc.) that we'd like to add to the gantt, but I do not want to have to add one project at a time via Projects tab > New > Enterprise Project.
I'm obviously VERY new to Project Server...but there just has to be a way to copy/paste a list of gantt contents from Excel to Project Server, right?! If we can do it today in SharePoint, surly it can be done in Server.
Your help is most appreciated!

Hello,
Not that much clear :) but let me try to give you some hints:
You cannot edit schedule directly from the project center page (what you call your home page)
Project schedule can be edited project by project on each project site, using the PDP called: schedule
Projects need to be checked out before edit and checked in when done, a checked out file cannot be edited by other persons
You need to be member of the project to be able to edit it, exception to the server admin who can do almost everything.
You might check some of those info, please send update if this does not help you, and give more details

Hi jenny,
Are you certain that they are both running IOS 6.1.3? Go to Settings>General>About, and check the "Version".
