How do I disable the "mute microphone" icon on the Facetime page, so that the video recipient can not only see me,(which they can), but also to hear me as well?

When you are on a Facetime call, click on "Video" on the top menu bar. You'll see "Unmute" on the dropdown menu -- click on it. Your mic should now be unmuted. Note: You must be on a Facetime call, otherwise the mute/unmute option will be grayed out.
Of course, when your mic is unmuted the option will turn to mute.

How to set up the iPhone 5 so that I can receive iMessage (incoming messages) and send text messages (outgoing) every time?

How do I set up the iPhone 5 so that I can receive iMessage (incoming messages) and send text messages (outgoing) every time? I have limited internet quota but unlimited sms!

Thanks!!
The reason I don't want to set it off is because I want to let others send me iMessage - most people prefer that according to their plan.
How do I bring this request to the hands of the people doing the ios updates? Maybe they could work on this for the future...

How do you add non-Garage band instruments into a Logic project so that you can hear them on playback?

How do you add non-Garage band instruments (orchestral instruments) into a Logic Pro (8) project so that you can hear those insrtruments' sounds on playback? I've tried to understand and follow the Logic Pro 8 User Manual, but the process comes off as so complex and the writing so technical that it does not help but only confuses.
To be precise - I want to add instruments (orchestral) that are not offered in the current Garage band menu which is offered in the Mixer's channel strip menus for Logic Pro 8. To be clear, the instruments that are offered are Bass / Drum Kits / Guitars / Mallets / Organs / Pianos and Keyboards / Synth Basics / Synth Leads / Synth Pads. Most of these that I've tried seem to work and give their characteristic sound when placed in a particular channel and playback is clicked.
However - there is one orchestra instrument offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Mixer channel menu and it's the item labelled "Performance - 000 flute 1 or 001 flute 1." And it is this instrument that presents a problem. When I click on it and choose it from the menu and enter it as the instrument of choice for a specfic channel / track in my Logic Pro project arrangement, when playing back the music for the overall piece this particular track, the flute, does not playback and produce the notes (Midi events) in the track in the sound of the flute. Instead, nothing comes out at all. I can't imagine why this does not work. Any ideas, anyone? Again, when choosing this instrument for a track and clicking the playback no flute sound is forthcoming. Why not? I have not tried them all, but when most of the other various types of keyboards, such as an electric piano or an organ, are chosen for a track the playback successfully renders the sound of these instruments. Why then does playback not produce the sound of the flute when it has clearly been chosen to play and sound the Midi events given it?
Anyway, the overall, larger issue for me is the inability I have to choose and get non-Garageband instruments (largely orchestral) to play the Midi events given on various tracks. If my guess is correct then technically, orchestral instruments not offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Garageband Mixer channel menu are referred to as external Midi sampled instruments - still, IMHO the process is not clearly spelled out in the User Manual. The simple step by step process whereby a non-Garage band instrument, say an orchestral instrument, is placed in a channel replete with Midi event (notes) waiting to be played should be easy, logical and given in a simple to follow format, but is not.
What with all the talk of routes, busses, auxillary channels, GM devices, GM mixers, audio bins, libraries and audio files this Logic Pro User is confused to the max. Can someone please help me and, in simple English, describe the step by step process whereby presumably external sampled orchestral instruments can be successfully employed, in any given Logic Pro arrangement project, to render their characteristic sounds upon playback?
On my two Macs, one a laptop and one a much larger Mac, I have any number of the GSO (Garritan Symphony Orceshtra) and Vienna Symphony Orchestra instrument library samples - and yet - I've yet to figure out how to actually get them INTO a Logic Pro project of any kind! To put this as a question, even as a humble request, how can I make good use of these orchestral sample libraries in a Logic Pro project? Can someone steer my to a clear resolution of this issue. I'd sincerely appreciate it! Thanks all!

David, you understand that this is professional software and is not necessarily meant to be easy but is in fact designed to give the professional user as many choices as possible, that's why it's in the Pro Apps section. You WILL need to learn about buses, GM Devices, Audio Bins, Libraries...etc..etc if you intend to use Logic.
That said, you are looking in the wrong place in the channel strip.
May I offer you advice?
Go here:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/
Open "Exploring Logic Pro" (a short PDF Document). Pay special attention to chapter 3. Also pay special attention to the included graphics of the channel strips.
I encourage you to read the whole document as it will clear up many things... even though it's a Logic 9 document.

How do I disable the liquify embedded mesh so I can liquify a new picture?

I'm trying to liquify a new picture, but PS loads my previous liquify mesh. How do I stop this from happening so I can use liquify on a new picture? Thanks

How are you selecting the liquify? In the Filter menu there will be two locations after you use it. At the very top and about 7 options below. It is the that 7th option you need. The top is there as the last filter that was used, so that you can repeat a filter. If you use a different filter that filter will take its place at the top.
Repeat filter - ctrl-f(windows) cmd-f(mac)
Liquify -shift-ctrl-x(windows) shift-cmd-x(mac)
If you are choosing the lower option, then it maybe possible your preference file has become corrupted. as it is not suppose to use the last mesh unless you save that mesh then load it on next use.
mid-right in the liquify dialog box is reconstruct options the button below it should be enabled to reset the mesh.

How do I reduce the amount of space that "Other" takes up on my macbook pro.

I've just bought a new macbook pro with Retina display & running Yosemite. I have the 128Gb version.
Initially I downloaded all my music into iTunes, but after seeing that it took up almost 40Gb of the 128Gb I decided to delete it from the Macbook. But now I find that I have 40Gb of "Other" in it's place. Does anyone know what "Other" is and how I can reduce it's bulk? (Image attached)

How do i make the pdf file so that people can fill in the blanks

i converted a file i had into adobe but i need to know how to make it so that people can fill in the blanks only on the form without being able to change it

If you have Acrobat, you add form fields. In Acrobat 11, you'd select: Tools > Forms > Edit
When you do this it will ask if you want Acrobat to detect form fields for you. This is known as the Form Wizard and it will attempt to divine where it thinks form fields should go based on the content. It work fairly well sometimes, but you will often want to make refinements such as changing the types of fields, the field names, certain field properties, etc.
You decline this automatic field generation and create them all yourself using the various tools available in form editing mode.
More information is available in Acrobat's help and numerous tutorials at http://www.AcrobatUsers.com

How do you disable the right shift hotkey that goes to mission control?

I want to change the right shift button as a hotkey for mission control. It is really annoying that whenver I want to type a '?', I use the right shift key, but it goes to mission control. I am fine with the 3 finger swipe up for mission control....I don't need more options for this feature.

Never mind, I figured it out. If anyone else has the same problem, go to System Preferences and then click Mission Control. Change the Mission Control keyboard shortcut to nothing. It will still go to mission control with the 3 finger swipe up. You can then go back and change it to another option.
I did this and it no longer automatically goes to mission control with right shift.

Is there anyway to disable the volume buttons so that you can only change the volume on the screen?

My volume buttons go up and down by themselves.

No. To solve your problem have you tried:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How do I minimise the history page so that the website is shown as well when an entry is selected. This happened on my old set up but not on 3-6-12

My old version of Firefox allowed browsing from the history list with a minimised history window. This allowed website or webpage to be shown next to the list. Since upgrading to Firefox 3-6-12 I cannot do this and have to relaunch from the history tab in the toolbar each time.
Is there a way round this. I am a novice on these things.

You can open the History in the sidebar: View > Sidebar > History (Ctrl+H)

How do I disable the spacebar in my PDF?

Hi, created an interactive PDF in Acrobat pro V8.3.1 which works ok, the only issue I have is that I can't seem to disable the "next page" function that seems dedicated to the spacebar. Basically I need the viewer to navigate the PDF via the buttons I've created and not press the space bar to move to next page. Likewise the arrow keys do the same thing and it would be useful to disable these too. Any ideas out there greatly received!
Thanks

You can't take away the user's ability to use a PDF in their usual way, only add to their experience.
