How come the numeric keypad only works in log-in and not in normal progs?
I've searched this forum for all things numeric keypad related and come up blank on this problem so I'm putting this question out there for anyone else who knows the answer.
The numeric keypad on my iMacs only work it seems in typing in numbers in the password box at log-in, but in any other program, including Safari, I get nothing when I push those keys. Why is this and how can it be easily corrected with or preferably without the use of strange hacks if this is not some kind of missed setting? This one really bothers me. Why have a keypad at all if it isn't useful the majority of the time? I find the same problem on the Aluminum and plastic, wired, and wireless versions of the keyboard. If Apple didn't intend us to use the keypad in substitute for the number keys whenever we feel like it, wouldn't it make more sense to downsize the keyboards and sell them without one? The keypad only seems to work when set for use as a mouse-substitute, and nothing else.
It's strange that it doesn't work on my desktops, but it works fine on my MacBook (but of course I have to use the f(x) key to make it work on that because it isn't really a separate keypad).
Does anyone have any idea what settings under Tiger could cause the keypad not to function? It seems the problem is Tiger-related as the Leopard desktops don't exhibit the same problem.. Which keyboard is connected and by what method does not seem to make a difference.

How come the same script only works in one form?
I made a checkbox that when checked it makes another subform visible. The script works perfect in one pdf. When I used the same script in another pdf (except I changed the variables of course) it doesn't work??????
It's set the same in both scripts. The subform name is exactly "CR" in uppercase. In the Events its set to click*, javascript at the client. Here is the script. Please let me know what's wrong????
if (this.rawValue == 1)
CR.presence = "visible";
else
CR.presence = "hidden";You have to have the object referenced correctly and that can include subform and section information.

Why do some of my apps only work ón my iphone and not ón my iPad ?
Why do some of my apps only work ón my iphone and not ón my iPad ?
That should work on the iPad. Basic app troubleshooting from Apples support site. Items 1, 2 & 3 should not apply to your situation, but I posted the link at the end if you want to read them.
4. Restart the application
If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
Tap the red minus to quit the app.
Press the Home button, then restart the app.
5. Restart your device
Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.
6. Reinstall the affected application
Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the application and then download it again.
Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
7. If the issue is still unresolved
If you continue to experience the issue, contact the developer of the application for further assistance.

Draggable window only works in MS JVM, and not Sun?
Hello all,
Our applet needs to support the MS JVM (and therefore Java 1.1). I have been looking to create a draggable Window to replace a Frame that we have since we want the frame to be 'undecorated' (no minimize button, etc). I found some code on this forum to create a draggable window which works fine. But, I would like to create my own title bar on the Window and only have that draggable. When I add the same listeners to the Label instead of the Window itself, the dragging no longer work so well in the Sun JVM, while it works fine in the MS JVM. The problem I am seeing is that if I don't drag slowly it skips, or doesnt drag. Note, I am only seeing this when adding the drag listeners to the Label in the Window, but this works fine when the listeners are on the Window itself. Also, this works fine in the MS JVM. Any ideas? For example, the code below is what has the issue in Sun JVM, but if I replace the 'title.' to 'this.' on the 2 listeners adds, I can drag the window fine in Sun JVM.
Thanks for you help,
Aaron
public class TestWindow extends Window {
Label title;
int width=300;
int height=300;
Point origin = new Point();
TestWindow() {
super(new Frame(""));
this.setBackground(Color.blue);
title = new Label("Draggable window");
title.setBackground(Color.gray);
//setLayout(new BorderLayout());
add(title, BorderLayout.NORTH);
title.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionAdapter() {
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
Point p = getLocation();
setLocation(p.x + e.getX() - origin.x,
p.y + e.getY() - origin.y);
title.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
origin.x = e.getX();
origin.y = e.getY();
this.setSize(width, height);
this.show();
}Sorry, I didn't read your post carefully the first time.... My suggestion would be to add listeners to both the label and the window, although that would make the whole window draggable. To nullify that effect, you'd have to put another component in the main part of your window (Like a JPanel if you could use Swing) and have it eat up any mouse dragged/clicked events that it receives.

How come the backgrounds don't work in photobooth?
I tried using the backgrounds for photo booth, and my picture always turns out really distorted, what should I do?
What exactly is happening? Does the background work, then disappears as soon as you get in frame or is removes the wrong parts of the image, or is it something else?
Because if it's that (which is a problem some people have had), I think it could be the auto exposure on the camera screwing up the background. All it's doing is comparing the pixels before and after, and if the exposure changes on the iSight camera (also if the background and foreground images are too similar), it will ruin the effect (which is why all the demos of backgrounds were done in professionally-lit environments).
If that's not what the problem was, I'm not really sure.

Ipad air will only work with email address and not phone number
Nobody can FaceTime me or message me using my telephone number, they can only do it using my email address, how do I get my phone number to work on ipad air
Do you have an iPhone?
You can only associate a phone number to messages and facetime if you have an iPhone.
The iPhone will associate the number it has to your Apple Id which in turn will make it available to Facetime and Messages on the iPad, assuming it uses the same Apple ID.
If you do have an iPhone, make sure you've activated Facetime and Messages on it so your Apple ID links to your number. -

How can I add a new Template to My Templates in Pages? I've read most of the discussions on the subject but it doesn't work for me. By the time I reach the Templates folder, I only see templates for Numbers and not for Pages. Need help, please. Thanks
Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
iWork > Pages
contenant Templates > My Templates
comme il y a un dossier
iWork > Numbers
contenant Templates > My Templates
Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
puis lancez la recherche.
Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.
Pour moi il est temps de dormir.

The "enter" key on the numeric keypad of my external mac keyboard has stopped working with my Macbook pro. If I plug the keyboard into any other computer, that entier key works fine. I'm using a standard Mac wired keyboard, & it's worked fine for 2 years now. Help!
This is the keyboard I am using: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB110LL/B/apple-keyboard-with-numeric-keypad
Not sure what I might have accidentily done to disable the enter key. (The normal enter key works fine, just the one on the numeric keypad.)
Thank you for your help.Hi there,
Do you have any resolution to this problem in the end? Because it happened to me an exact same thing.
Please share if you have found a solution to your problem. I also cannot think of what I did wrong to disable the Enter key.
