Exposé is broken - any ideas how to fix it?

Hello, I have a MacPro 2x 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 6GB RAM and running 10.6.8
I installed the latest Software Update to fix a Security Issue tonight and since then my Exposé is not working. I checked my Prefs files and my Mighty Mouse, it shows the correct set up in the panes but it just doesn't work anymore. Any ideas how to fix it?
Is it related to me installing Diablo 2 today by any chance?
Thanks

ok, it seems someone else had this issue too as this post has just appeared - with a cure for the problem I may add. Tried this and it worked like a dream!
I'm having huge problems with my MBP (2010). Exposé just stopped working, both the key on the keyboard and the multitouch gesture stopped working. Does anyone have any idea why, or how to solve it?

    That happened to my brother earlier. He went into Facebooand then into another app and the same thing happened. he ended up having to restore it. Mine stayed with the Apple logo for a bit but its back to normal after pressing the buttons a million times. I hope you get your problem sorted. Goodluck!

    I think the clock no longer works.
    If you set the time and date to somewhere around 2001, or 2005...it will probably keep the setting just fine. But around 2010, it stopped working.
    Not broken, that is just the way it was made......many years ago!

  • It takes a long time to open an app and sometimes it will just crash, any idea how to fix it?

    My four year old Macbook Pro couldn't start yesterday and after going through solutions and all, it worked. But now it's freaking laggy and whenever I want to open an app, it takes a long time or the app will just crash. Any idea how to fix it? I really need the speed and everything back.

    noeleeeen,
    so you have an external hard disk, onto which you deleted/moved files from your internal hard disk, so that you now have 143 GB or so free on your internal hard disk — is that correct? Is the external disk purely for backups (e.g. a Time Machine destination), or does it function as a supplement to your internal disk?
    Was it entirely your personal data files (documents, photos, movies, music, &c.) which you’d deleted or moved to the external disk, or did you also delete/move apps, libraries, &c. over there?
    I’m not familiar with Echofon Lite, so I can’t comment on it, but an Apple-supplied app like the App Store shouldn’t crash.
    Have you tried running Disk Utility yet, to see if its verification process gives your disks its seal of approval?

  • Any ideas how to fix my mac book pro to canon pixma mp640 printer connection?

    Anyone have any ideas how to fix my mac book pro to canon pimxa mp640 printer link? The two are connected manually yet the ! remains on the 'print' page next to the printer name. it was working fine until i changed the ink cartridges. Without the wireless password - which I've never had and don't supposedly need as it's not a wireless connection, I am being prevented from resuming printing.

    If it's on a windows network you have to enter your (windows) log in (name/password) credentials.
    This should be a 1 time event. It will remember it thereafter.

  • I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    Did you already try these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

    search MF4150
    click >Drivers & Software
    Verify or choose Yosemite 10.10 - then click the [+]
    Again verify Yosemite > click agree > click [DOWNLOAD]

    I have uploaded the InDesign file so that you can take a closer look at:
    http://www.hsdesign.comuf.com/downloads/
    The file is called "Template_File.indd"
    So, as discussed the main issues are:
    1) The TOC doesn't generate all the listings (only those with the applied paragraph style "Heading 1 - Appendix")
    2) When I try to create a new pargraph style and apply it to existing or new text, it reads the pargraph style in the Paragraph Style menu, but the style doesn't actually apply.
    Hopefully you can figure something out from this. I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks!

    Did you delete all receipts with iDVD in the file name  with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder before installing the new copy?  If not then do so and delete the new application also.

  • My iphone 4 went into recovery mode for some reason and it is unable to be restored. any ideas how to fix this?

    my iphone went into recovery mode for some reason and is unable to be restored. it wont turn on and when plugged into a charger it shows a usb and itunes symbol. so i plugged it into my mac and connected to itunes then itunes said it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored. so it goes through the restoration process for a couple minutes or so then stops and says itunes is unable to restore because an unknown error occurred (2001) or (2006) and other times i try it says its unable to restore because itunes cant detect the device... any ideas how to fix this?

    Errors 2000-2009 (from Apple support): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
    2001: Use up to date software. Make sure your device is in DFU Mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    2006: Use a different USB cable. Possibly the one that came with your iPhone.
