Does Cmd+H not hide all applications in Yosemite?

When I press Cmd+H to hide each open app, it works as expected until I get to the last visible app. Instead of the last app being hidden and showing my desktop, pressing Cmd+H will either toggle (hide/unhide) between the last two apps, or not hide the last app at all.
Is anyone else seeing this behavior? Is it possible to restore the Mavericks behavior where I can simply hide all the apps to eventually see the desktop? (Note - this is different than Mission Control's Show Desktop)
Thanks in advance for any info!

found this link a helpful workaround! (hint: use Option key when selecting apps and it closes them off desktop so you're left only with the one app window you want - not all of them)

  • Why does "Hide all Applications" not hide all applications?

    Currently, when I invoke the "Hide all Applications" action, it leaves some apps visible. This happens all the time with Safari if it is open. This is clearly a bug -- is there a workaround for it?

  • Application Archive not listing all applications

    Regarding the packaged application APEX Application Archive, does anyone know why it does not list all applications under Applications tab? I have it installed for three mostly identical instances, and two out of three are missing listing of applications that could be archived. I did not notice that all my applications were not archived the first time I used it. Is there a setting I am missing on the application level that makes an application "archivable"?
    TIA,
    Carl

  • Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough space available.

    Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough available space.

    The S.I. prefix Giga is used to mean both 1000x1000x1000 and 1024x1024x1024. Computer software typically uses the second version, but using the first number makes the same number of bytes appear bigger when expressed as Gb, so is favoured by hard drive manufactures.
    80Gb10 = 74.3Gb2
    It's a bit like specifying a quantity in gallons without saying whether they are US or Imperial gallons - everybody gets the same volume but one number will be bigger than the other. I could offer you a tank with 10 Imperial gallons of fuel in it - but if I tell you it's 12 US gallons it sounds like you're getting more for your money.
    Once the total size of your library exceeds the capacity of your device all you need to do is create some size limited playlists to determine what goes on the device. Don't sync all movies, sync one or two that you plan to watch soon. Likewise with TV Shows. Limit podcasts to unplayed episodes and finally create a music subset. What worked for me for some time was a smart playlist called Steve's Tunes defined as Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Exclude where Exclude was regular playlist that I would manually add to until Steve's Tunes was small enough to fit. These days I run an iPhone and have a number of smart playlists with ? Gb of most played, ? Gb of highly rated, ? Gb of recently added, ? Gb of essentials, ? Gb of unplayed etc. Each time I sync I get slightly updated selection without having to put any extra effort in.

  • The purchased items it is not showing all applications

    I HAVE IPHONE  4S 16GB
    WHEN I GO TO APP STORE FROM THE IPHONE TO THE PURCHASED ITEMS IT IS NOT SHOWING ALL APPLICATION WHICH ONE I DOWNLOADING
    PLEASE I WANT A SOLUTION.

    Hi, rsvip7.
    I would recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device.  If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close.  Test the results after processing these steps by attempting to access your previous purchases.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If the issue persists, I would verify which Apple ID was used to make the purchases you are unable to locate.  If the application is located on your computer, you can either Right-Click and Get Info on the selected media for Windows or Control-Click and Get Info for Mac.  The Apple ID that was used to purchase the media will be on the Summary tab. You can also verify what Apple ID it was purchased with by accessing your purchase history by following the steps below. 
    iTunes Store & Mac App Store: Seeing your purchase history and order numbers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
    If the account used to purchase the missing content is different, you will need to login with that Apple ID in order to access prior purchases.

    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in the forum.
    As far as I know, we could not hide the All Applications Arrow-down icon from Start Screen via Group Policy.

  • Hide all applications

    Hello there. Someone I know is having a hard transition from OS9 to OSX. Is there a keyboard command on OSX to hide all open windows and show the desktop? Is there a program that puts that application switcher thing from OS9 in the menu bar, in OSX? Any info that would ease the transition is appreciated. Thanks

    977/3423
    Yes,
    using Exposé you can show the desktop the F11 way (or set hot corners for the mouse).
    You can also switch between application windows, or all applications windows: play with the F9 and F10 options followed by Tab.
    You can also use Application Switcher to toggle between all open apps:
    Command-Tab (keep Command down then Tab-Tab-Tab or `-`-`).
    Hide All:
    you can only "Hide Others", using the usual Option-Command-H shortcut, or by Option-holdclicking the Finder icon in the Dock.
    By the way, you can combine mousing with the F keys too.
    Enjoy your Mac!

  • CS3 Uninstaller Did Not Delete All Application Files

    A few months ago, I purchased a new MacBook Pro. When I did that, I used Apple's migration assistant to move my programs from my old MacBook to my new MacBook. The Adobe CS 3.3 applications were migated. I recently purchased the upgrade to CS 5.5 Web Premium. I wanted to uninstall CS 3.3 before installing CS 5.5 to save hard drive space. So, I ran the Adobe Uninstaller (Applications > Utilities > Adobe Uninstallers). The Adobe Uninstaller could not find any Abode Products on my MacBook, although they were clearly installed and working. So, I reinstalled CS 3.3 and then tried the Adobe Uninstaller again. This time, the Uninstaller found all of the product and said that it uninstalled all of them. However, it did not delete the application files from my MacBook. I then attempted to run the Adobe CS Cleaner and that also did not delete the application files.
    How do I go about deleting the application files?
    Is it safe to simply drag the folder for each CS application to the trash at this point?
    How can I remove Version Cue CS3 from my System Preferences?
    Thanks!

    You should find the uninstaller for Acrobat 9 within the Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro folder.  Once removed then remove any other Adobe application folders you have listed from the Applications folder.  Beyond that you can also find files for the Adobe applications listed in the following locations:
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe
    /Users/<UserName>/Application Support/Adobe
    /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers/
    /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities/
    You may need to reinstall Flash player and Shockwave after this procedure but it should remove the files used by CS3.  You can then try the CS5.5 installation at that point.  I would still caution that if you run into problems with the installation or even run into a problem removing Acrobat 9 that it will still be more efficient to step back and restore the Mac OS and run the Migration Assistant again as previously advised.

  • Launchpad does not display all applications

    Hi,
    Not a biggie but thought it might show some industrial strife in the background!
    I've installed ML and now launchpad does not show Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, etc). They are still installed, perfectly usable, and on the dock anyway, but is this a sign of corporate friction, or something more sinister?!?!?!?
    Regards,
    Richard.

  • Does iOS 7 not have "All Songs" anymore?

    Hey iOS 7 users.
    I have an iPod Touch 4th generation, which means I can't get iOS 7. I'm thinking about getting the 5th generation and adding iOS 7. Can you please see if iOS 7 has "All songs" in the genre tap? Meaning you can play all the songs by one specfic genre. If you still don't get what I'm talking about, please watch the video.

    No, it does not. I have the fifth generation and iOS 7.0.3. Sorry.

  • My I message ain't working, it does sometimes then not at all

    My iMessage works sometimes then doesn't it just sends a normal text message

    You must be connected to a data source for iMessage to work, either 3G or WiFi, as does the person you're trying to use iMessage with. If not, iMessage will default to SMS if that is enabled in settings.

  • Why does my CD not show all files?

    I have a CD-R that I burned on my old G3 of art files--tifs, jpgs, epss etc. There are also a couple of other folders containing logos and graphic files whose contents show up fine, but all the art files (a bunch of folders categorizing contents) do not show up in the window. I can access them if I use the search function ONLY! What gives? Why can't I view the directory of this CD?

    In the view window of the CD-R contents, if you change that from Icon view to
    one of the other views, can you see a list of contents in the disc? That is how
    you normally can see the items in columns or lists.
    There is a chance something may be amiss on the actual CD-R media, if it
    has some strategic smudge or a few scratches, that could also affect how
    the disc is read in a different computer at some later point in time.
    Also, some optical drives may use a slightly different format, and while it should
    not be a problem among Macs, if the format or disc type is not fully supported,
    the content may appear missing.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Why does "Print Booklet" not print all the files in book?

    My new Indesign CS4 will not let me do what I was able to do easily with Pagemaker 6 and Indesign CS2.  When I go to “Print Booklet”, the program will not print the entire book, but only whatever file is check marked at the bottom of the WINDOW tab on the Menu Bar. I have tried with the files in the BOOK Menu selected and not selected. No difference. I have tried every way I can think of to add and link the files indicated in the Book Menu to the actual files. Each time the same. I have reinstalled the program. Still the same. I am using a Mac PowerBook G4 with OS X 10.4.11.  Your ideas and help will be greatly appreciated..........Richard

    Sorry, Print Booklet simply isn't designed to be used with multiple files. You'll notice it isn't available in the Book Panel menu.
    You could export the entire book to PDF, then place the PDF in a new document and use Print Booklet to print that.
