Issue or symptom
You might not be able to enable Handwriting recognition in Ink preferences (in System Preferences). This may occur on some Macs that shipped with Leopard pre-installed.
Solution
Use this workaround to enable handwriting recognition:
From the Finder's Go menu, choose Utilities.
Open Terminal.
Carefully type (or paste) the following command, then press Return.
sudo rm /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.IntlDataCache*
Enter your admin password if prompted for it.
Type or paste the following command in Terminal, then press Return.
sudo rm /var/folders/*/*/-Caches-/com.apple.IntlDataCache*
Type or paste the following command in Terminal, then press Return.
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ink*
Restart the computer.
It didn't work and has crippled my OCR software into the bargin. Any solutions?

Restore the bootable backup/clone of your previous installation or your Time Machine backup. BTW, the rm command action is otherwise irreversible.

If a dialog box appears that asks for your password, ask yourself whether you're doing anything that requires it, such as logging in, using sudo, moving or copying items in some system-level folders, or installing software. Mistyping a command may delete files that should remain intact, or damaging the Mac OS X installation by moving files around or altering permissions on certain components.

Is there any way that I could know that those problems are occuring>>> i'm referring to "moving files" and altering permissions on certain components?
and when you say altering permissions? what do you mean by that?

Can you create a template that has a header and footer to forms?

Can you create a template that has a header and footer to forms?

Yes but how are they going to create the Landscape versions?
The problem with doing it in Pages '09 as rotated content is that the Headers and Footers are not rotated and there is inherent clumsiness in the rotated content usually being too large for the page when viewed at 90°.
Best to make it in two or more separate documents.

how can you find an ipod that has been lost and the icloud is not turned on

lost/stolen
No app is required.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.

iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

You won't be able to remove the existing iCloud account, restore or erase it without know the password. If you ever update it or restore it you will not be able to activate it again and use it without knowing the correct ID and password.

Can you link a folder that has multiple files

I have DW CS4. Is it possilbe to do a link to a folder that has multiple files. What I'm trying to accomplish is a link that will have multiple chocies of what months results people will be able to choose.

This is not something that is the simplest thing to do and will require some server side programming. With Godaddy there are 2 hosting plans that they offer, one for Windows and one for Linux. If you got the Windows plan you will need the script in ASP, which I admit I am not well versed in which is why I asked the question earlier. If you have the Linux plan with PHP I could help you out a little. To be honest if you do not have a lot of experience with programming I would probably recommend that you use the Jump menu in Dreamweaver (under the forms tab of the insert toolbar). That will allow you to have a link to a page from one month's results.
Otherwise what you end up needing is a form that stores the results as an array and then you run a loop on the display page to include files based on what is stored in the array.
It can be done, but from the sounds of your experience I would recommend taking it one step at a time and learning along the way.

How can I unblock Adobe Systems Incorporated that has been blocked as a publisher from running software on my computer?

Hi there!
Few weeks ago malicious adware attacked all browsers in my computer and Adobe Flash Player so I uninstalled them, downloaded new antivirus (Avast Premium), antimalware (Malwarebytes) programs, adware cleaner, HitmanPro and ran them several days; they can not detect anything wrong now. I believe the computer is clean but it is impossible to install again Abode Flash Player, even from the official site of Adobe (I do not have any problems with Adobe reader). Any time I click on the icon, instead of "Run" button, appears security warning: "This publisher is blocked from running software on your machine". And as long as I have the icon in downloads or in the bin, Avast warns me that there are files that can not be scanned. The status of these files in the chest says: "Error: Archive is password protected. (42056)". Does it mean that I still have bugs hiding in the computer? Is there any chance to recover the Flash Player or I will have to miss lot of interesting videos by the time I buy a new computer?
Thanks in advance for any opinion, advice and support.
Elena

Fortunately, I found the answer for my problem, thanks to Bruno_Dude and now I have AFP installed. Somehow Adobe Systems Incorporated was listed as untrusted publisher. Here is the the link with the way to remove it from the list.
Re: Flash Player won't install
Hopefully it will help to other people.

Can i do a battery swap on a third party battery for macbooks

What are you talking about? Do your job yourself. If you don't know, ask your boss.

That pretty much eliminates all the user-serviceable parts the phone has.
When you say you purchased a new battery, I'll assume that it included the installation and you did not go fiddling with the nanoscrews and such. So it's got to have some sort of warranty that the part is good and it is time to take it back for service.

I'm trying to re-install itunes on my laptop & I am getting a message that has stopped the re-install & it says: "Service 'Apple Mobile Device" (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." The diaglogue box gives me the options to abort, retry, or ignore; when I tried retry and ignore the re-install process stays stalled & the dialogue box comes back & I don't want to abort & start this all over to probably end up with the same issue; what does this mean & what do I do?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

I have Firefox 7.0.1 and it has no bookmark transfer feature that I can see. It used to have a Manage Bookmarks but that seems to have vanished. I am trying to transfer my bookmarks from my Imac to my Macbook Pr0 can you no longer do that?

hello,
It would be 'Bookmarks' > 'Show All Bookmarks' and in the window that appears there is an 'Import and Backup' menu on the top. Click that and then choose 'Export Bookmarks to HTML..'. Now on the other PC it would be the same procedure except for the last, where now you have to choose 'Import Bookmarks from HTML...'.
