Display not staying put

My shiny new iMac doesn't seem to want to stay at the angle I put it at. Does anyone know any way of tightening up the stand or is it an Applecare job? Thanks

Hi, probably the best course of action is Apple or an Apple Approved Service Agent...L

  • CS6 synchronize window not staying put

    Most frustratingly the CS6 synchronize window is not staying where its put. This used to work just fine in CS5. I tried saving the screen layout while it's open as well. Each time it comes up in some default position and I have to move across monitors and expand the window where I want it to sit. Anybody else having the same issue? Any solutions? Can you please fix this Adobe in the next release? Thank You.

    I haven't made the switch to CS6 yet, so I don't have any experience to add either way, sorry.
    As far as getting the info to someone within Adobe that could make a difference if it's a bug in CS6 (and not just some kind of conflict on your machine), make sure to report your bug here:

  • IOS 8 rearrange activities not staying put

    When I rearrange the Activities order on the iPhone 6, they don't stay in the same order after I quit app. This happens in every app (Safari, Photos, etc).
    Any idea why the order is not staying in memory?

    Okay my IT Director and I had the same problem,  On your DC go to AD-Users and Computers, go to the properties of the name, in the security tab click on advance button on the bottom.  In advance the button on the bottom should say disable inheritance. If it says enable inheritance, then click on enable.  Once I did this all my exchange emails came pouring in.  Hope this helps anybody.  Problem solved

  • Sound Input will not stay put!

    Hi, if i go to
    System Preferences>Sound>
    and change the input level to my desired choice for my built in mic on my imac g5 isight, well, the level will not stay the same.
    I constantly use Ichat, and use the audio chat feature with a few friends.
    And it bugs me cause I have to go to change my preferences every single time.
    Is there a cure for this.
    I would trash the sound prefereces p.list , but im not sure which one it is.
    Anyone , can you shed some light on , a
    small issue, but important to me.
    thanks

    I will need to select character by character with Hanin, while with Zhuyin, the system will render suggestions.
    This page has some info on Hanin that may be helpful in doing more characters at once:

    As for the problem with the Zhuyin IM, I think it would be best to ask on the chinese-mac list and see if anyone there has run into this and found a fix:

  • Sleep Display not staying asleep when encoding video

    Hello,
    I am looking for a way to turn the display off and KEEP it off with applications running as normal, until I want to wake it up. It is not always staying asleep.
    I have a hot corner set up so that I can instantly turn my iMac display off (including the backlight). This works fine most of the time, but when running certain applications, activating sleep display works for a few seconds then stops working and the screen comes back to life.
    Example applications which cause this are iTunes when encoding a video (e.g. converting a movie to iPod format), iSquint when encoding video, iDVD when encoding and burning a DVD - seems to be anything that makes heavy use of the processor.
    I have tried all sorts of things to get around this:
    1. setting the sleep display timer to 1 minute in the Energy Saving settings
    2. 3rd party application and widget "Sleep Display" (http://linestreet.googlepages.com/home) which claims to make the display go to sleep and STAY asleep, suggesting "This version may work for people who experienced the monitor going off then coming right back on" - which indicates that it's not just me having the problem. This "Sleep Display" application doesn't work with Leopard though; the author acknowledges this and suggests he will update it if he upgrades to 10.5
    3. different application - http://www.imalc.com/Site/SleepDisplay.html - this does the same as the hot corner and wakes up within a few seconds
    4. sleep display tool in Dockables - same problem
    5. "shades" system preference add-on, this makes the screen black and keeps it black but doesn't turn the backlight off
    6. tried hiding the offending application, moving it to another space - nothing seems to work!
    7. covering the imac with clothes - not ideal!
    Thanks for your help!
    Jim
    P.S. the screensaver does stay on - so whatever is waking the sleep display isn't disturbing the screen saver - this suggests to me it's a bug. Obviously a black screensaver isn't the solution though - the backlight is still on.

    I've got a very the similar problem. Brand new iMac 24" that shipped with Leopard -- my first Mac after jumping ship fom the Windoze side.
    I had iTunes updating it's album artwork and since it was taking a while, I went to bed. When I turned out my light, I realized the screen had not yet gone to sleep (a good 15 minutes after it should have). So I set up a Hot Corner to put the display to sleep. When I put the mouse there, the monitor would go to sleep, but wake up within 10 seconds. At first I thought it was just the mouse moving as I walked away, but it wasn't.
    I ended up turning the computer off because the big beautiful screen was throwing too much light. Since, I rarely turn my computers off and they're usually doing SOMETHING, this is really annoying.
    Admittedly, I haven't tried some othe the potential solutions above, but this has to be the same bug. Screen saver stays on, monitor comes out of sleep.
    Any help would be.....well.....helpful.

  • Multiple Computer Monitor Screensets Not Staying Put

    I've created 7 screensets, each distributing various windows onto different computer monitors (I have 3 monitors and a lcd tv attached to my computer) to speed my workflow.  Each time I open my LPX file, all the open windows of each screenset are stacked top of each other on my main screen, instead of where I put them. I've tried locking them which keeps them in place until I reboot the computer, then they're all in stacked in the main window again.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
    Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?  I've tried reinstalling LPX, trashing the pref file, but no luck, the problem persists. 
    I am currently trying to use 10.0.3, but the problem has been there since I updated to X when it was released.  I still have 9 on my computer and it is working fine.  I had no problems with this in any previous logic version until now. Thanks.

    I did a fresh install of Mav and LPX on an external HD and booted from it...  to test out the combination and so far, so good. No major issues of note.. A few niggling OS X bugs that I can work around, (not related to LPX and it's use I might add.. ) but such minor bugs are not unusual with a new OS version... All my external hardware (Motus) work fine with the current, latest drivers although Motu do have a new beta driver specifically for Mav ready to go....but so far, I haven't come across anything of issue with the current ML drivers... All my plugins are working just fine too.
    As for my main working rig... Whenever there is a major upgrade to the OS I always install from scratch... and even though I could simply upgrade the previous OS to the new one.. I have found through bad experiences in the past, that it is better just to start again from fresh to minimize issues.... I keep my major sample libraries on a separate HD so at least i don't have to reinstall those.... just the plugins like Kontakt and 3rd party FX and SIs...... It can take a couple of days to achieve all this (I have all the current versions of plugin installers stored on another external HD ready to install from which speeds things up a great deal)  but for me, the time spent to do it this way, seems to always pay off in terms of the lack of issues going forward.
    I do upgrade one of my test rigs rather than start from scratch.. just to see what happens in case there are any issues related to doing so, that my clients might face.... but I will only be doing that when the App Store version is actually released... as even though i don't expect any changes to be made to the Gold master version of Mav at this stage... the installer itself can change so I wait until it is released to the public... and use that version, just in case.
    So, I haven't come across anything 'bad' using Mav and LPX..... and some things.. like the way Mav handles multiple monitors.. are greatly improved for sure...Overall performance in both LPX and other OS X apps seems snappier under Mav... in particular those apps that made heavy demands on the graphics sub routines.  Also, after waiting for almost two years now.. a long standing bug regarding the use of the Thunderbolt to FW adaptor and a problem when the display goes to sleep, has finally been fixed resulting is stable connections to my FW800 Ext HDs and FW400 Ultralites.. which for me is a real bonus and benefit of using Mav!

  • Laptop display not staying on television

    I am able to connect my laptop to the television (Sharp Aquos) and choose to have the presentation display on the laptop and tv at the same time. After 3 to 5 minutes, the setting reverts to laptop only. Not only is this annoying, but it looks unprofessional. How can I fix this so the display stays in one mode until I want it to change?

  • Song Info is not staying put

    I am pretty anal about keeping my music collection organized, so after I import new songs into iTunes, I like to edit the song info to change the track number, disc number, genre and other things. I hit OK, and the changes appear to be groovy, but as soon as I play one of those tracks that I just edited, the info goes back to what it was when I originally imported the track. I have enabled iTunes to keep my music folder organized and all music files I use are in that folder that's specified.
    Any idea how I can make these edits permanent so I can finally quit repeating all the work I've been putting in to cleaning up my collection?
    Thanks much
    -Chris

    Excellent question ! You need to make regular backups of the itunes database file, which is named
    iTunes Library.itl
    That is the file that holds ratings, play counts, and other metadata. With that ITL file, you can rebuild your itunes library if your hard drive crashes.
    I copy mine over to a USB thumb drive about once a week. More often if I've added lots of music, and ALWAYS before any itunes update.
    You can back up the XML and Genius files too, but as I said, the most important is the ITL file. iTunes can re-create the XML and genius files from the ITL.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    That article doesn't list the default Vista path - it's something like
    c:\ users \Music\iTunes on Vista
    But you may be running your library from a non-default place.
    The actual track info should stay within the track's tags.

  • Resolution will not stay put, changes at turn on after selecting "apply and ok"

    When I set the resolution on display settings to the max on the slider scale, then select apply and ok and select to keep this setting, every thing works as it should until I shut down and restart the laptop.Upon restart or startup, the resolution goes back to a lower resolution and all is distorted, then I have to go back into control panel, personalizing, display settings and reset the resolution to max. This happens almost 100% of the time but not always. Very annoying behavior..
     Any help would be appreciated to keep the resolution set and stop this tiring/annoying routine
     System is Vista..

    Try placing the iPhone into recovery mode.
    If this is successful, this will require restoring the iPhone with iTunes. Do so as a new iPhone or not from the iPhone's backup.

  • Footer not staying put

    I am not an expert at CSS, and I am sure that I have made a mess of things. My footer is as big as a browser window, but not as big as the webpage. I hope that makes sense? If I have a small little window open and scroll to the right to see the entire webpage the footer does not cover the entire bottom. If I just make the window bigger without scrolling there is no problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    fixed it! I had to set the minimum width of the footer at least as wide as the body.

  • Icons not staying put in folder windows

    Just recently if I rearrange the icons in a folder window after I do a restart the icons reaarange themselves and the folder window resizes back to a previous size and arrangement - it's driving me mad! Do I need to dump some preference file or clear some cache or the like - if so where would I find said preference or cache?

    Information about the properties of a particular window, such as the view, icon size and arrangement, window size, and so on, are stored in an invisible file in every folder that has been opened. The file is named .DS_Store, the simplest way to see this is to get one of the utilities, such as TinkerTool, which allows you to see invisibles, or to use the list command in Terminal:
    ls -al /
    hit the retrun key, and it will show all the files and folders at the root level of the drive. It sounds like the .DS_Store file is not being written to. You could try trashing it. If you use Terminal you would type:
    rm /.DS_Store
    hit return, and it will delete the .DS_Store file for the root level of the drive. Open the window and size and arrange to your tastes, then close the window. Make sure the window is closed when you shutdown. You can verify that a new .DS_Store file was created by using the list command again and check the date. Thus I just trashed mine, then opened and reset stuff and ran the list command:
    -bash:~francine$ ls -al /
    total 11979
    drwxrwxr-t 41 root admin 1496 Feb 5 12:12 .
    drwxrwxr-t 41 root admin 1496 Feb 5 12:12 ..
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 francine admin 12292 Feb 5 12:13 .DS_Store
    ----more stuff----
    You see that a new .DS_Store file was created today at 12:13.

  • Album view not staying put...

    After updating my Touch to the new 1.1.4, the album view will reset to the top of the list when moving in and out of the list to view other items. That view use to stay where you last were when you moved to other pages, now it won't on mine. This problem has cropped up in different update versions. Some fixed them while others brought it back.
    Anyone else have this problem?

    On my ipod touch, if I pick an album to view its contents and then go back to the album list, the list won't reset. If I pick another view such as artists or genres, then when I pick the album view again, it resets to the top of the list. I have version 1.1.4

  • Files dragged or added to Finder not staying put

    In OSX Lion when I drag a file to the Finder side bar I cannot drop it there. If I highlight a file in a finder window and add to the side bar using Command-T it will be added under Favorites but will have disappeared next time the Finder is opened. How do I fix this please?

    In OSX Lion when I drag a file to the Finder side bar I cannot drop it there.
    Hold down the Command key while dragging the file, and you can add it to the Favorites section of the Sidebar.
    You can also add applications to the sidebar's Favorites, but you need to hold down both Command and Option while dragging the icon to the Sidebar in order to do so.
    I have not noticed that an added item (file or application) auto-disappears from the Sidebar. Not sure what you mean by "next time the Finder is opened" - do you mean opening a folder?

  • CYMK slider color not staying put when trying to color match editable text

    Hello-
    I'm having trouble with Acropbat Pro and color matching. I tried the magnifying glass for the editable text box I created, but the color is slightly off. I used command 3 to open up the CYMK slider. I adjusted the slider to the color I do want (the CYMK color in the document made in Illustrator), hit "ok", but the color reverts to something else!!! I recheck  the text color and sure enough the CYMK slider bar changed to something a little different. Why is this????
    Ex: I click on text in the editable box, then another color option, adjust the CYMK slider to 0, 58, 28, 0 and then click ok to exit out of the color choices box. The text then changes to different color again!!! I click back on the color and somehow the CYMK slider is 3,56,28,0???? Why is this??? I'm so frustrated I can't figure out how to match this document and make it stay!!!
    Thanks!!!
    Lisa V

    Here is an example on an editable text art document:
    Baseball Party Invitation Editable Text Invitation by printmagic
    This is what I mean. I am bringing in an art document and creating a personalized name area. I am trying to match the text to a color on the document but the magnifying glass is off. And when I go into "other color" I am given a number of color picker options including a slider. I am given a CYMK slider if I click command 3 on the grayscale slider. I change the CYMK color slider to what I want but the document switches it.
