Dashboard doesn't appear when hiding is on

Hi,
I've have the dashboard set so that it hides it, when it's not being used, and for some weird reason, just today, it's stopped bringing the dashboard up.
To gain access to it, i have to turn the hiding off.
Any ideas why this would happen?

Are you talking about the Dock?
I've never heard of an option to hide Dashboard when its not being used unless that is some haxie that you've installed.
If you do, in fact, mean the Dock, you might try trashing the preference file:
/Users/~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
Note: You'll have to replace any icons that you've added since trashing the preference will reset the Dock to default.

  • Photo doesn't appear when a contact calls until after answer (iOS 7)

    When I recieve a call from a contact the photo (sync'd with Facebook) doesn't appear when the phone is ringing. Once answered the photo appears on the in call screen. I'm sure it appeared whilst ringing in iOS 6?

    I have this same problem with SMS, recent calls, vm, etc. it started after i re-synced my contacts form MoblieMe and I can't seem to get it to recognize the number as a saved contact.

  • Keyboard doesn't appear when trying to type into Numbers cell

    I'm having a strange problem trying to use the latest Numbers app on my iPad 2,.
    I opened a new spreadsheet but the virtual keyboard doesn't appear when I try to enter text in a cell.  I can only get the "Paste" option.  When I hit that, it enters text I'd cut and pasted from a NY Times article into a Facebook post two days ago.  I thought that I'd just paste it then delete that column later but when I move to the next column, the same "Paste" option appears.
    I can title the spreadsheet; I just can't type into the body of the spreadsheet.  The spreadsheet and cells aren't locked.
    I've been using the latest version of Numbers on my desktop with no issues at all.  I have no idea why this is happening.  Any suggestions?  Thanx.

    Hi William,
    Things are working the way the were intended to. A single tap on a cell brings up the Cut/Copy/Paste/Delete/Fill/Comment menu. A double tap brings up the input screen. If the cell is formatted as text you will get the text keyboard right away. If formatted as a date or number then those screens show. You are given the option to change the data type here. If you are in a form you will be ruled by the format and unable to change it there.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Photo transfer App doesn't appear when SD card inserted with camera connection kit  to iPad 2

  • HT5278 i did this update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though! ne1

    i did the ios5.1.1 update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though, and for my alarm. ne1 else had these problems?

    I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s.   Usually the solution is one of the following:
    1-  If  your volume indicator says  headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
    Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
    2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
    3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
    Hope one of these works for you

  • SPED output type doesn't appear when goods issue done

    I have made goods transfer from one storage to another via two-steps procedure. Both storages have WM.
    So I create UB order (Me21n) -> outbound delivery -> transfer order. Then I approve the transfer order and the goods issue is done automatically. In this moment SPED output type has to appear in outbound delivery and to create inbound delivery.
    SPED settings are:
    dispatch time - 4 (Send immediately  when saving the application)
    transmission medium - 8 (special function)
    req. routine - 408.
    The problem is that after goods issue done via transfer order approving I haven't SPED in outbound delivery. I need to open the delivery to change (SPED appears) and save it. Can it be solved by any standard method or only by ABAP?

    Hello Mihailo
    Thank you for your answer.
    I think so too but I hope it can be another way. It's really strange situation because I see that the delivery status is updated after the goods issue. So the devilery is re-saved. But the output document doesn't appear.
    How you solved it in your expirience via change the delivery in background by ABAP or via any new req. routine?

  • Spotlight doesn't appear when I click on it or when I use the cmd space....

    All of a sudden it stops coming up. ??????

    I'm having the same problems. Spotlight doesn't respond when I click on its icon in the menu bar, and splat-space highlights the icon but doesn't open any windows.
    If I click on a Finder window and hit splat-F I can open a finder window but it appears it stopped indexing a while ago because I don't see any new info. I've deleted the index and it's reindexing now, but no change in the Spotlight icon behavior.
    I have Now-Up-to-Date as well, and I'm running the current version, but I'm a bit nervous about deleting that startup folder without knowing what that will do. If that simply removes the icon from the menu bar I'm fine with that.
    Spotlight does occasionally work. I don't know why but it'lll suddenly kick into gear. These days, though, it's not available 95% of the time, which is a bummer as I really like it and used it a lot.

  • Ipod appear in my computer when disconnected, doesn't appear when connected?

    It's impossible to add songs to my ipod because when i connect the ipod the taskbar says it's connects however it doesn't appear in itunes or in "my computer". In addition to that it takes million and a half years to eject it from the task bar. I've managed to disconnect it properly maybe twice. at first i thought it was that the drivers need to be reinstalled. but after waiting for an entire day for it to respond i disconnected it improperly and suddenly the ipod icon appeared in my computer and actually stayed there for a while while the ipod was disconnected. as soon as i reconnect it the ipod disappears. im thinking the computer is slow to respond to it since it immediately opens itunes when i disconnect it after waiting for hours.

    The USB host controller maybe hung by the Antivirus or a slow CPU, with low RAM.
    Antivirus has a tendency to freeze iTunes sync Operation with iPod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your iPod filesystem, so when iTunes can't read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
    My suggestion.
    Connect your iPod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your iPod to the PC, using a high speed USB 2.0 port at the back of your PC. (don't use USB hub or the USB port at the front of your PC).
    When iTunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
    When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
    Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well.
    When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
    Good Luck!

  • Grey dot doesn´t appear when using the adjustment brush

    In LR5, when I´m using the adjustment brush, the grey circle doesn´t appear.  How can I make this dot to appear?
    Thank you in advance.

    I have just found it!
    In the left inferior angle, below the picture I am working with, appears the text  "Show Editting dots" (sorry if the text is not exact, I have the spanish version). Then, you have several options (Automatic / Always / Selected / Never). Do select any option but  "Never".

  • Welcome window doesn't appear when installing CS5 on new imac

    I'm trying to install CS5 into my new imac but after I inserted the Application disc 1, nothing happens. the welcome window doesn't appear. No window to fill in serial #s, etc. Installed Acrobat with no problem though. Thanks.

    Thanks for your response Jeff. I'm still getting myself familiar with Lion and obviously handicapped with these tech stuff so pardon my ignorance. I didn't see the DVD icon the way I used to in earlier OS so just assumed it wasn't working the way Acrobat worked (the first DVD I inserted). Now, I transferred the contents of my backup drive onto my new imac and see both CS4 and CS5 transferred into the Applications folder. Does that mean the softwares are installed or do I need to install them through the DVDs? Don't want to accidentally screw up anything. If I just dragged and deleted CS4, does that completely remove it out of my iMac? thanks so much for your help.

    Hi,
    You can delete the network profile using the next command.
    netsh wlan delete profile name="HomeNetwork"
    Then you can reconnect to the network again and choose the type you want to.
    If you don't know the name of the profile, use the next command.
    netsh wlan show profiles
    For more method to change network type, I would like to suggest you refer to the thread below.
