Help with the tiny menu and type size of the UI...

Does anyone know of a way to make the menus and type LARGER in the User Interface? I am using the new indesign CC on a nwer iMac large display. Everything is SO tiny, my eyes really strain to see and read all the menus and tools. Anyway to fix this?
Thanks!

You can zoom the screen by setting key combinations and trackpad gestures in Mountain Lion's Preferences > Accessibility. In OS X 10.6.x and earlier, IIRC it's in Preferences > Universal Access.

New texts do not display in the open conversation; have to toggle back to the Messages menu and then re-enter the conversation to read newly-received texts.

When I have a conversation open, new texts from that person do not immediately show. Instead I hear the text tone, see Messages (1) in the upper lefthand corner, and have to toggle back to the main menu and then re-enter the conversation to read it. Irritating! Help?

Help with how to read and write files to the applets server

I am writing a form that requires some data to be written serverside(not on the host machine) and I also need to be able to read from those same files.
Can anyone provide any help?
I looked into signing but it seems, to me, that signing is for when you are going to be modifying files on the host...

Would I use that to refer to the file like I would with a regular application?Nope. It's pretty complicated. You've got to set something up on the server to accept requests, get all the data and then save files somewhere and on the client side you've got to make the connection and send the data.

Need help with pop-up menu and applied Rules

I'm working on a spreadsheet that calculates my profit and losses. I drive a big rig so it needs to keep track of a lot of variables so I know if I'm going to make money on a run or lose money.
I get fuel discounts of various amounts depending on which vendor I fuel at.
I went to a section of the sheet and did a pop-up menu that contains the vendor names.
In the trip section I have cost of fuel per gallon, gallons purchased, total fuel cost, cost minus fuel surcharge.
What I would like to do is apply a rule to cost per gallon box (H7) that takes a variable from the pop-up menu (B40).
So if H7 has $2.58 entered as a cost and B40 has pilot selected then $0.050 will automatically be deducted from the $2.58. This way I will have a history of where I fuel, the deduction is made automatically, and I have a history of fuel prices in a certain region.
If anyone looks at this and sees a simpler way of figuring this calculation please make the suggestion. I want to keep this sheet as small and hassle free as possible.
I have 3 fuel stops per trip with totals that are connected to other areas. Once I get all of this done I will be adding a chart for easy comparison and long range simple tracking to see where improvements can be made and costs are going.
Thanks in advance all help will be appreciated.
Message was edited by: Hwoodwriter for clarification.

The IF Lookup table worked. Did a little modification by placing the table in another part of the chart then hiding that part.
I tried doing the discount as a negative but got a negative total which had a negative affect on my total trip income.
Here is how it works in it's final version.
Gallons on board minus gallons required for trip.
Cost per gallon (retail) multiplied by gallons purchased.
Fuel cost equals (Gallons purchased multiplied by Retail gallon price) minus ("IfLookup" multiplied by Gallons purchased)
Fuel Cost Minus Fuel Surcharge (the actual price I pay, which includes all my savings) equals (Retail Gallon Cost minus Fuel Surcharge minus "IfLookup") multiplied by Gallons Purchased.
Some of my trips take up to 3 fuel stops. So this helps me keep track of each fuel stop and all savings per trip.
I now have where I fueled, the retail price, with discount and surcharge applied. A few keystrokes and I know if a trip is going to be profitable or a loss for me.
Thank you for the help. I now have what I need at my fingertips to make my job more effective.
Thanks again.

Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe. When I start the download I get this on the screen: The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068." The memory could not be written. Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug. So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer. A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it. I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance, for your reply. Jim R.

Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy. A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief.
It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C. no joy.
Sigh...Jim R.

Under the help menu, there is an option to repair the installation of reader. Did you try that?

I cannot log onto the App Store, the page appears when I call it from the dock or the Apple menu and I can call the log-in box from the menu bar, but on signing in the spinning icon just keeps spinning,(not the beachball). Using 10.6.7 and up-to-date on all software. Any suggestions?

Could be a third party app preventing you from being able to login.
Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
If it's not a third party issue, follow the instructions here.
Quit the MAS if it's open.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Caches folder.
Move the com.apple.appstore and the com.apple.storeagent files from the Caches folder to the Trash
From the same Library folder open the Preferences folder.
Move these files Preferences folder to the Trash: com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist
Same Library folder open the Cookies folder. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the MAS.

I'm having troube with music. Some artists that start with an "P" appear under the "R" menu and similarly throughout the alphabet. Same about albums, songs

I'm having troube with music. Some artists that start with an "A" appear under the "B" menu and similarly throughout the alphabet. Same about albums, songs and genres. It suddenly happened after about 3 days of iOS 5 usage. Re-synchronization doesn't help. I also tried deleting some artists from ipod, but it doesn't help either.

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=3754

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

Help Me with Encore CS6 Menu and buttons

Hi I need help with Encore CS6 Menu's. I have a Premiere CSs 6 video which is 3 hours long and 21 chapters. It looks like I can get 18 of the buttons to work. I also want to set up a exit button. Is there a 18 button limit to a menu? Should I be looking at using menu index's or play lists?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Ed

I assume you have a single video on one timeline, and you have chapter markers for your chapters.
A button (e.g. "play movie") links to the timeline (default is chapter one, which is what you want). The end action of the timeline is "last menu."
Commonly, a second button on the main menu goes to a chapters menu. Each chapter menu has links back to the main menu and to the next and previous chapter menus.
For EACH chapter, you create a chapter playlist with that one chapter in it. The end action of the chapter play list is "return to last menu."
There are no end actions on chapters and no overrides anywhere in the project using this method.

When I turn on my iMac it comes up with the icon which I then log into. The password works and I then get the apple icon and the spinning wheel. After a minute it turns into a prohibited icon. If I log on the guest icon I get to Safari. Help!

When I turn on my iMac it comes up with the login icons which I then choose and log into. The password works and I then get the apple icon and the spinning wheel. After about a minute the Apple icon turns into a prohibited icon. However, if I log in under the guest icon, I can access the wifi and get to Safari. I really don't know what to do next. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Are you running any A-V? If it's an iMac 21.5, I don't think you're running Leopard, 10.5. Probably at least Snow Leopard, 10.6. This is the Leopard forum.
This article says meant for 10.3.9 and eariler, but contains some still useful suggestions.

Try a Safe Boot. Shift at the startup chime and expect a much longer time to boot. This will bring you to a login screen with "Safe Boot" in red.
Look at this as well.

I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one? Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!

You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different plug sockets, different plugs/cables, help

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box that came with it but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different mains plug sockets around the house with no joy, I have tried different USB mains plugs but again no joy, I tried using my new iPad cable into the USB port of my MacBook Pro laptop but still no joy, then, I tried using my old iPod classic cable into my MacBook Pro and that worked, so I have a way of charging my new iPad3 but its not practical as i have to take my MacBook Pro everywhere if I want to charge it which kind of defeats the object of having an iPad, has anybody experienced anything similar and how was it fixed? can anybody help me please...

Grumpy Gator,
Please note it did say at the store's discretion, but people have actually been able to return it to the on-line store. (I only saw a couple who tried.)
And given the outcry, I would think Apple might have other Apple stores join in. Just in case, though, if you can, you might bring it in today.
If it's an ARS, my guess is they can stick to their 14 day return. Apple cannot force them to do it. SO if it's not bought directly from Apple, and it's past the 14 day deal, I'd bring it in to the store today if you have one. When I gave people the cnet.com site, I gave it so people could read it and know only Apple had made the decision for Apple. And I suggested to some that an Apple reseller would probably stick with their own return policy.
Because Arnie had just bought his, he should be able to return it to Apple or an ARS because an ARS has to have some kind of full refund or at least return for credit within 7 or 14 days of purchase.
Hope this helps.

Can I get help with podcasts? When I try to open the podcasts, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish. everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.

Can I get help with podcasts? When I try to open the podcasts tab, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish. everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.

The only other thing I can suggest is to use the Repair option for iTunes.
Download the iTunes programme (do not uninstall your current iTunes) and then "install" the new copy. At some stage you should see an option to "install" or "Repair". Take the Repair option.
Once you've done that, if you still have a problem, I don't know what else to suggest, except to search through the discussions to see if anyone else has had the problem and managed to fix it.
