Help! my scroll bar (elevator bar) is not showing up now--how can I fix it; it's driving me crazy!

The scroll (elevator) bar has suddenly become very faint, hard, to find, and in some cases is not showing up at all. The arrows at the top and bottom show up, but not the scrolly tool itself. I have tried changing the themes/display, but it doesn't seem to matter. This is making me so mad, can someone help?

Backup, backup, backup...

Hello.
I did not touch my computer the past week, I've only been messing with my laptop.  I had my computer off a whole day.  I turn it on, open iTunes, and everything is gone.
Is your laptop a different computer than your computer?
You have two computers?
iTunes is missing everything from which one/both?
I system restore.  Everything is gone.  None of my podcasts, apps, or music files are there.
Do you mean you reinstalled the system from scratch?
Yes, that tends to delete everything.
Or you restored everything from a backup?
Directions on where to go to download all past purchases?
Selete Store on the left side of iTunes.
Make sure you are signed in.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick links to redownlaod your purchases.
Then make sure to regularly backup, backup, backup all your important data .

  • I recently updated my itunes to 11.3.1, and now when I connect apple devices to my Windows computer with a USB, they are not showing up. How can I fix this?

    This problem makes it impossible for me to sync any apple device to my itunes library. I have tried reinstalling itunes, but it still doesn't work. My computer recognises the devices, but itunes doesn't.
    Suggestions?

    I have the EXACT issue as Hatchs88 and the response doesn't help. I found a 3 of 4 missing songs as "song".tmp file in the music directory but I can't do anything here... The iTunes store just says purchased and it doesn't the songs show up in the purchased list either. What's funny is that I was able to download on an iPod touch but I cant get it on my PC...

  • My Macbook is not playing sound unless i have headphones in. The light in the headphone plug stays on even when they are not plugged in. How can i fix this?

    You might need to clean the headphone port (I was in the same situation and this worked for me).  Dirt, dust, and debris accumulate in the port and eventually the computer registers the debris as headphones being plugged in.  After cleaning the issue was resolved.

  • I have up dated my itune and now it will not play my old purchase movies. I have brought new ones and they work but my old purchases will not. Why and how can I fix it.

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

  • The page won't scroll down to see the all the content. How can I fix it?

    My pages won't scroll to see all of the content. I don't want it to scroll on the home, about, or contact pages, but I do want it to scroll on the pages with image thumbnails.
    Such as this page:
    http://megancampagnolo.com/loves.html
    How can I fix it?

    The Slideshow widget on the page appears to be pinned and pinned elements are not considered as part of the content by the scroll bar.
    So select the Slideshow widget in Design mode and unpin it.
    Thanks,
    Vinayak

  • Clicking a link opens a smaller window, not a maximized window, how can I fix this?

    When I click links that open in a new window, that new window is not maximized, like the browser window that I used to click the link. How can I fix this?
    I prefer using new windows instead of new tabs, and I have been doing this forever. I had turned OFF the automatic updates for Firefox, but this newest update was installed anyway. If there is no setting to open all new links in windows the same size as the main window, is there an option to revert this update?

    Hi Mumps,
    There is a feature in Firefox that forces window.open() to open in a new window.
    browser. block. target_new_window
    Reference (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries)
    Same window size should be default. It should open the window of the same size. Try to reset firefox if this is not happening. (about:support page > Reset)

  • My "awesome bar" is not showing up! How can I get it to show?

    My "awesome bar" is not showing up at the top of my page! How can I get it to turn back on? I have all of my plug-in information up to date. Help!

    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • Print quality terrible, may not be the printer - how can I fix it?

    I've been cleaning and replacing cartridges in my printer lots but no improvement of print quality, in fact a deteriation so that now only magenta and a tiny bit of black print. I just used someone else's printer and same problem (different colour error though) but printed using their computer and the printer is fine. Could there be something I need to change in my mac rather than from the printer to solve this?
    I have a MacBook Pro 13" and my printer is HP 8600dn, which has worked fine for 2 years.
    The second printer which I can't print on but does work from another computer is the Epson Stylus SX420W.
    I've just put new HP cartridges in and it's claiming to have finished the yellow despite me not seeing any yellow being printed.
    Can anyone help?? This is driving me crazy and I really need my printer! Thanks, Eve

    There are alterate drivers in OS X for each of those printers. Try Generic PCL 6 for the HP and the Gutenprint driver for the Epson. - in other words, add the printer again, but select the alternate driver.

  • I have followed the directions given and still can not copy and paste, how can I fix this?

    I am trying to use the copy and paste function on a website and I get a message window that states that firefox does not allow cut/copy/paste. I followed the link for help and created the js. text file like instructed with the website's URL. I still can not copy and paste. I can copy and paste on this website with internet explorer, but not with firefox. I can not perform all the website functions with the internet explorer brower and switching back and forth from browser to browser is very time consuming and a hassle. Please help me solve this issue.

    Try this using extension - Allow Clipboard Helper - it makes that a lot easier to do and lessens the incidence of user error. <br />
