Cannot select arrow that was previously "Sent to Back"

I am creating a flow chart and have to move some objects around. I have an arrow that I believe I set as "send to back" that I cannot select in order to delete it.
Any way of doing this?
Thanks

Is the flowchart inside an anchored or graphic frame? If so, then select the frame and use ctrl-A to select all, then try to click on the arrow to make it the only selection.
If you haven't usd frames, then just do a ctrl+A on the page to select everything and try to select that arrow. WIth a lot of objects in front of it, you may have to de-select the others first (ctrl+click).

I cannot select images that I've sent to back.

Once I send an image to the back, it's impossible to ever reselect it. Any suggestions?

My iPhone recently broke so I was sent a brand new iPhone to replace it, however, since receiving this phone, I cannot access anything which was previously backed up onto iCloud from my last iPhone. Please help me!

If you are trying to restore to an iCloud backup, this has to be done during the initial setup process. If your phone is already set up, you will have to go back to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content & Settings, then go back through the setup screens again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to complete.
Also, your replacement phone must be running the same iOS version or higher to restore to your backup. If you are running an older version of iOS than the device that was backed up, your backup will not be visible when you choose to restore to your iCloud backup. If this is the case, you'll have to update your replacement phone first.

Drive Preparation
1. If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

I've lost the orange firefox tab with the arrow, that was in the top left corner: how do I get it back?

I've lost the orange firefox tab with the arrow, that was in the top left corner: how do I get it back?

In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden<br>A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.<br>You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
*It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
*<br>*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"

Hello edjhsu,
Unless the drive is in a format that isn't compatible with Time Machine, the files will not be overrwitten. However it is typically a better idea to keep your files and your backup separate, especially since files on the Time Machine drive will not be backed up by Time Machine.

How to select a text frame that has been "Sent to Back"?

Hi Framers,
In FM 7.2 (all patches up to date, running on Windows XP Pro), I added a note inside a text frame next to an anchored frame holding an image. I nudged the text frame close to the image but it blocked out a tiny portion of the image. So I selected the text frame and from the Graphics menu clicked Send to Back. Solved that problem, of course. Now I want to change the wording in the note but can't do it because the entire text frame has been sent to back -- how can I select it to Bring to Front so I can edit its contents???
This MUST be something totally obvious, right? Can I plead pre-holiday brain freeze?
TIA,
Gay

Hello again, Sheila ;~)
I selected all and moved my cursor all around the page (around various pages, actually, since Ctrl+A selects the entire chapter), and I see what you mean by the color of the arrow's head changing between black and white. Is it significant that the ONLY time it's black is when I'm outside the frame of the page itself? (That is, in the white, non-editable space around the actual frame borders on the page.) Clicking anywhere, whether inside or outside the active area, deselects everything.
HOLD THE PRESSES! Even though I *knew* I hadn't grouped my text frame with anything else, after reading your suggestion, I selected the page frame to make sure I hadn't somehow grouped it with my text frame: I hadn't -- but then, on a hunch, I sent IT (the page frame) to the back -- now I can select the text frame!
I'm marking your response as answering my question and I'm also going to try to mark Peter's the same way, because each of you in your own way, helped me resolve this problem.
Thank you both and HAPPY HOLIDAYS! (Gee, and I didn't get either of you anything... maybe next year ;~))
Gratefully,

Hi, Gay:
The "I-Beam" pointer tool is called the Smart Pointer, because it changes to an I-beam when it's over text, and to the Graphics Pointer tool when over a graphic, or part of a graphic, or when you press Ctrl. It's easy to select the main text frame when you Ctrl+click on its interior text area inadvertently, when you're trying to select an anchored frame edge, or when you use Ctrl+A to select all. It's frustrating to have some of these unintended events happen when you're not expecting them. Always work with View > Borders ON, to display the edges of objects and reduce confusion, and always watch where you click. You can zoom iin to large magnification to see things better.

Is there a way to backup the iphone without entering a passcode that was previously set?

I have a passcode on my iphone, which I recently dropped. Both the front and back screens are cracked severely. I can see when someone txts / calls, so the phone appears to be working, however it is not usable. I cannot access anything on the phone using the touch screen. The screen continues to shake as if there are multiple fingers trying to operate it at once.
Although it would be nice to get back into the phone, I would prefer being able to back it up just one more time. I sync frequently to icloud, but the last time I backed it up to my pc was 11/16/2011. I can access everything I've backed up(txts, images, etc via other applications), but I have some important correspendeces that took place between then and now that I would like to have.
Is there way for me to backup the phone without entering the passcode? Also, I have read through some of the discussions, and pardon my ignorance but I wanted an unequivocal answer to this question: If I restore the phone from the backup of 11/16, will I lose everything after that date? And, are there other alternatives?
I have tried some things which I thought would be clever ways to bypass this problem, but alas...here I am asking for help. I find it frustrating that I can sync to icloud (still) yet I cannot backup to my pc without passcode. I guess a good alternative would be if I could access my txts on icloud? I may consider replacing the screen, but I don't know if this will fix the problem since the phone looks pretty bad. I also prefer not to replace the screen since I wont be using this phone any longer.
Your comments / suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
reaL

Restoring a phone from a backup will put the device back to the state it was when the backup took place, i.e. all info that you had on that phone before using the backup will be gone.
You could try to restore the phone, which will back up the actual data on the phone, including the passcode, and use this backup to set up a new phone with. The passcode will still be the same, because it is part of the backup.
More info here, iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
Not being able to fill in the passcode is not much different from forgetting it.
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

Responding to a Notification that was previously responded to

I am having a problem with Workflow not sending out a notification if someone tries to respond to a notification that has already been responded to.
The workflow documentation says that "If you send an invalid response, the Notification System sends you an "invalid response" message. If you respond to a notification that has been canceled, you get a message informing you that the notification was canceled. Similarly, if you respond to a notification that was already previously responded to, you get a message informing you that the notification is closed. "
I am not getting this message informing that the notification is closed.
Any help?
Thank You,
Joyce

dbMiller... if I understand you correctly, you've got two sites loaded in your iWeb page. One is above the other in the SITE ORGANIZER on the left of the screen. If this is accurate, drag the one on the bottom to the top by clicking on it, holding down, and moving your mouse so that the bottom site is on top. When you publish, iWeb publishes both sites, but you only see the top one.
To fix having to do this every time, and reloading both sites each time, you need to create a new account in system preferences. Once you have the NEW account up and your running in it, open iWeb create 1 page, save it, then close iWeb and GO BACK to your other account. (this creates an iWeb folder and domain file in the new account.) When your back in the other account... follow this path
hard disk/users/user name/library/application support/iWeb/domain.
Duplicate this file by clicking on it once and then going to FILE/DUPLICATE
Drag this file to your new account, follow the path listed for the domain file above but use your new user account name, drop the file in the iWeb folder replacing the domain file you created when you opened iWeb in the new account.
Now... open iWeb in one account and delete one of the sites. Open iWeb in the other account and delete the other site.
You now have two sites, in different domain files, and can publish and edit them easily.
This is a work around until Apple fixes the two domain on one Mac account thing in a release that will probably come out soon we're all hoping.
Anyway.. hope this helps.

Error 200617 on every usage of NI PXI-5610 that was previously working

Hello,
I have been trying to use the NI PXI-5610 RF upconverter (associated with a NI PXI-5441) with VIs that were previously working, including the NI GPS toolkit and RFSG example VIs. However, with the same setups as were working previously and the examples every time I now receive the following error
niRFSG
Commit.vi<ERR>The upconverter reported the following
error:
DAQmx Error
-200617 occurred:
Measurements: Output generation was aborted by the reverse
power protection circuitry of the device. Either the output signal exceeded the
output power limit, or power was being driven back into the output of the device
by an external source. Correct the problem, then generate the signal
again.
I have tried restarting, allowing 30 minutes warmup time before trying to use the RFSG and ensuring that the chassis fans are set to high with no change in the result.
I have also tried doing a self test on the RFSG unit in MAX which fails with error 200020.

Ok, well we can take the first steps via this forum post. If we need to RMA the PXI-board we can follow up on the created service request.
First I want to start troubleshooting the Self Test error.
I have attached a application which goes through all of the tests separately so we can determine where this error is coming from. Please run all of the test provide by this application.
Thank you in advance.
With kind regards,
Casper

Cannot Select Text That Use Certain Fonts

I have some PDF files where I cannot select the text because they use certain fonts (monotxt for example) when I change the font to Arial and recreate the PDF, then I can select the fonts for copy and paste. My question is how to add fonts that Adobe can recognize for selection.

The fonts are invisible to selection. I cannot select them at all. I do have the license for these fonts. I did some further tests and found that it only happens when I make a PDF from my AutoCAD application and use the monotxt font type. I guess it could be a problem with the AutoCAD application and the creation of the PDF and not the Adobe Reader.

How to I change an email back to one that was previously used.

I had an iTunes account that was hacked several years ago. How do I change my iTunes ID back to that email since that is my primary email and I just got an iPhone?

Just make her a new AppleID - https://appleid.apple.com
On her device, log out of iMessage with your AppleID, then log back in with her new AppleID. For iCloud, first go into the iCloud account settings and disable find my iPhone, then delete the iCloud account. Now add a new iCloud account using her new AppleID.
You both can continue to use the same AppleID in the iTunes and App stores if you wish to share purchases. If not, just scroll to the bottom of the feature page in the store, log out with your AppleID and log back in with her AppleID (she will need your AppleID and password to update anything purchased with your AppleID though).

HT4913 unable to use itunes match to download, much less play, any of my library that was previously matched.

this is still not working. am unable to download anything. keeps asking me to locate the specific file on my mac, which i cannot, because it accidentally was deleted.

Just to let everybody know, the problem disappeared totally on friday. Now everythiing works again, I lost nothing and I still can access all of my songs.
I waited a bit because you never count your chicken before they're hatched, but after three days I can cry "victory".
Thanks anyway to anybody who viewed my question and thought a possible solution for my problem!
