Help my mouse doesn't function

Help!, my mouse doesn't react anymore. It can move but when i click it does nothing. Tried it with an USB-mouse, wireless mouse and the trackpad on the macbook itself

Re-Start the system. Do a SMC reset. Chjck the USB ports to see if they are still working, insert some other USB device like an external hard drive.
If in the end the built in Trackpad still does not work it is time to take it to Apple and have it looked and fixed if you can afford it.

My magic track pad works fine, the magic mouse cursor stayed in the central part of the screen and would only move up and down on a slight diagonal. I went into system preferences/mouse/more gestures and disabled all swipes. Problem solved.

[SOLVED] External USB mouse doesn't work

I've installed Arch on my laptop and today faced with a problem. When I boot with AC off my external USB mouse doesn't work. Also it looks like USB ports don't work. If I detached AC when working mouse works fine.
I can suppose there is some problem with laptop mode. May be it turns off usb ports to save energy. Anyway quick search doesn't brings any results. If someone give me a hint how to solve this problem I'll be very grateful.

Well, after diving into configs solution has been founded. The point was to disable auto suspend feature in laptop-mode-tools config by setting BATT_SUSPEND_USB variable to 0 in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/usb-autosuspend.conf
Hope this information will be helpful for users who probably faced with the same problem. Thank you!

I have an Apple Powerbook G4, and my monitor doesn't function. I have an external display Monitor, however it's stuck in extended screen mode. How do I get it to mirror or duplicate the display without use of the on-board?

As i had said, I have an Apple Powerbook G4, and my monitor doesn't function. I have an external display Monitor, however it's stuck in extended screen mode. How do I get it to mirror or duplicate the display without use of the on-board? Is there a Fn key combo i'm missing or is the issue more serious then i realize? any and all help and hints would be greatly apprichiated, thanks in advance.

The PowerBooks have an F-key that toggles mirrored and extended mode. My PB is loaned out right now but I think it was f7. The keycap has an icon on two overlapping rectangles, as I recall.
EDIT: Yes! Found a pdf of the PB manual it shows F7 is the toggle:

TS1717 I have exclamation marks (!) which has ruined my playlist as it doesn't function as it should. I was downloading music when a scan had started which I cancelled. Ever since then I've had these exclamation marks anyone know how to fix it?

I have exclamation marks at the beginning of the titles which has ruined my playlist as it doesn't function as it should. I was downloading music when a scan started which I then cancelled as it was slowing down my download. Ever since then I've had these exclamation marks and now these tunes are not transferrable and I've lost them in my music file on the ipod nano and so cannot reload them again. Anyone know how to remove the !!!'s or clean my files?

You get exclamation marks or dead tracks because iTunes can’t find the file. This can happen for a number of reasons:
The song file or a folder in its path was renamed
The song file or the folder it is in has been moved
The song file has been deleted
The device containing the song files e.g. external drive is not accessible or the drive letter has changed..
Usually the actual music files are still there, so you need to check to see if you can find them.
If they are there, open iTunes and select a problem track, right click and select Get Info.
Answer NO when asked if you want to locate the track.
Now you should see where iTunes thinks the tack is located on the summary tab, how does this compare with where the track actually is.
This info should help work out what has gone wrong.

RDP 6.0 Vista lefthand Mouse doesn't work

When i connect to a Terminal client with my Windows Vista my left hand lefthand Mouse doesn't work correctly (switch to right hand).
With Windows XP and RDP 6.0 i haven't these problem.
what goes wrong?
Regards
Walter

First off, I can state with 99.9% certainty that this has *nothing* to do with USB vs. PS/2 mice, and since you don't have custom mouse software on the client, the driver on the client is irrelevant to the equation. The version of Remote Desktop you are using is the most up to date available, so upgrading won't help you.
I suspect (this is just a theory as I lack a mouse to test it with presently), that the problem is not that Remote Desktop doesn't recognize the presenter mouse. Rather, the Presenter mouse software that does the custom button swapping is only designed to work with the Presenter mouse. It ignores the emulated mouse that Remote Desktop uses on the server to forward mouse clicks from the client, so Presenter settings don't get applied.
Does the server's mouse software completely remove the check box to swap mouse buttons, or does it just offer an additional means of swapping mouse buttons? If the check box still exists, you should be able to use it to fix the Remote Desktop problem. If it doesn't exist, I'm afraid I can't offer much in the way of solutions. The only possibility I can suggest is that while the client mouse software is not causing your problem, you might be able to solve the problem using the same weird mouse software that is causing the problem on the server. As a test, you might try turning off mouse button swapping on the client, installing the Presenter on the client, and using the mouse button assignment mechanism it provides. If it is bypassing the usually mechanism for swapping mouse buttons, it is possible that the Remote Desktop client won't detect the swap, and will pass the clicks on to the server inverted. It's not an ideal solution, since in order to make it work in the long term you'd need to get another Presenter mouse for the client, but try it out to see if it *can* solve your problem.
I will look into providing a mechanism to solve this more easily in the future (even if it is just a checkbox to allow you to force a swap), but any solution would not be available for quite a while I'm sorry to say.

Several Onmessage and asynchronous process doesn't function

Hi,
I'm using the BPM suite v10.1.2.0.2.
A process instantiated by a pick with two onMessage, each receiving a distinct message from two different invoke from another process, doesn't function.
I have the following error :
<remoteFault>
<part name="summary" >
<summary>when invoking endpointAddress 'http://set.by.caller', exception during AXIS invoke: java.net.UnknownHostException: set.by.caller; nested exception is: javax.xml.rpc.JAXRPCException: java.net.UnknownHostException: set.by.caller</summary>
</part>
<part name="detail" >
<detail>javax.xml.rpc.JAXRPCException: java.net.UnknownHostException: set.by.caller</detail>
</part>
</remoteFault>
More clearly, when I Introspect the data entries to instantiate only the process beginning with the pick, It works with one operation, but not for the other.
I can see that the error is the following : the server always looks after the same portType, and therefore generates the following error : operation cannot be found in the portType.
I assume the code is correct describing the two operations.
Has anyone already faced such a bug ?
Thank you by advance,

Hi,
I've been working on it these past days. I Never found the problem.
You can find here the useful bpel code :
<partnerLink myRole="BPELProcess1Provider" name="PartnerLink_1" partnerLinkType="client:BPELProcess1"/>
<partnerLink myRole="BPELProcess1Provider2" name="PartnerLink_2" partnerLinkType="client:BPELProcess2"/>
<variable name="variable1" messageType="client:BPELProcess1RequestMessage"/>
<variable name="variable2" messageType="client:BPELProcess1RequestMessage2"/>
<pick name="Pick_1" createInstance="yes">
<onMessage portType="client:BPELProcess11" operation="initiate1" variable="variable1" partnerLink="PartnerLink_1">
<wait name="Wait_1" for="'PT5S'"/>
</onMessage>
<onMessage portType="client:BPELProcess12" operation="initiate2" variable="variable2" partnerLink="PartnerLink_2">
<wait name="Wait_2" for="'PT5S'"/>
</onMessage>
</pick>
and here is the WSDL code :
<portType name="BPELProcess11">
<operation name="initiate1">
<input message="client:BPELProcess1RequestMessage"/>
</operation>
</portType>
<portType name="BPELProcess12">
<operation name="initiate2">
<input message="client:BPELProcess1RequestMessage2"/>
</operation>
</portType>
<plnk:partnerLinkType name="BPELProcess1">
     <plnk:role name="BPELProcess1Provider">
          <plnk:portType name="client:BPELProcess11"/>
     </plnk:role>
</plnk:partnerLinkType>
<plnk:partnerLinkType name="BPELProcess2">
     <plnk:role name="BPELProcess1Provider2">
          <plnk:portType name="client:BPELProcess12"/>
     </plnk:role>
</plnk:partnerLinkType>
If I Try to introspect the call of 'intiate1' with a HTML form on the BPM server, I get the following error message :
Unfound operation in the portType. The operation "initiate1" cannot be found in the portType "{http://xmlns.oracle.com/BPELProcess1}BPELProcess12". Check if the "initiate1" operation exists.
The other branch is working fine.
I can't help thinking that this is an Oracle Bug : the server always looks after the same branch.
Anyway, thank you by advance

When reinstalling OS X with install disk, wireless mouse doesn't work

I have an unusual problem: My iMAC G5 hard drive died and I installed a replacement disk. Now, I am trying to reinstall OS X 10.3 with the help of my original install CDs that came with the iMAC.
Unfortunately, my wireless mighty mouse doesn't react anymore and I cannot proceed with the installation through keyboard commands alone. I get stuck at the first install window where the system asks for the operating system language.
I am clueless how to proceed since I don't have access to any utilities to test or connect the mouse because OS X is not installed yet. I tested the mouse on another Mac and it works. Any clues? Thanks for your help.

I solved my problem by using the original mouse

[SOLVED] Awesome WM - Mouse Doesn't Work on Client Objects

I am new to Arch and awesome and I haven't tampered with the default rc.lua but my mouse doesn't do anything when used on windows(clients). It does in fact work everywhere else e.g. the root window, the menu-bar... Below is the relevant part of my rc.lua, even though its the default.
clientbuttons = aweful.util.table.join(
aweful.button({ }, 1, function(C) client.focus = c; c:raise() end),
aweful.button({modkey}, 1, aweful.mouse.client.move),
aweful.button({modkey}, 3, aweful.mouse.client.resize))
aweful.rules.rules = {
{rule = {},
properties = {keys = clientkeys,
buttons = clientbuttons}}
The client specific keyboard rules do in fact work so its just the mouse related client rules.
Has anyone had this issue or have any suggestions about how to go about debugging it?

Repair what? Your description seems a bit unclear, maybe posting a few screenshots can help clarify the issue.
Are you talking about Quick Mask Mode?

I bought a budget sheet app from the apple store, there is no option of sub category given and therefore the app doesn't function can I get its money back ?

Actually, wrong.
The tech support people can help with Playbook purchased apps. If you've called and they said they cannot, you were lied to.
Even in the link you posted, in #10, it states clearly "App Refund related matters are handled by BlackBerry Customer Care." That, my friend is accessed by the support number. Again, if you were told otherwise, you should inform them of such or ask for a manage/supervisor.
And, you don't have a "Partner ID" because you are not a "Partner". The section you're referring to applies to mobile providers, which are the Partners.
Good luck.

Hi, im tinkering with mpeg streamclip and its giving me problems because it won't open my ripped dvd files from my desktop. It keeps giving me the same message "no VOB files can be found". Can anyone help me, this doesn't make sense.

hi, im tinkering with mpeg streamclip and its giving me problems because it won't open my ripped dvd files from my desktop. It keeps giving me the same message "no VOB files can be found". Can anyone help me, this doesn't make sense. I also found online that you need Apple Mpeg-2 playback component in order to use mpeg streamclip. Even though I have OS X Lion, should I download the add-on?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.
