If you're running OS X 10.8.5 or earlier, then from the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences... ▹ Accessibility
If the checkbox at the bottom marked
Enable access for assistive devices
is checked, uncheck it and test.
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select
▹ System Preferences... ▹ Security & Privacy ▹ Privacy ▹ Accessibility
If any applications are listed on the right and have a checked box next to them, uncheck all the boxes and test. You may first have to click the padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate as an administrator to unlock the settings.

How can I fix the Gray Dot on my Itunes Store? I just bought the new Celine Dion album on my ITunes and one song decided to have a gray dotOH my god SOMEONE PLEASEE help me. I closed itunes so maybe it could work again now it looks like its never downloaded it dissapeared from my library. I went to the album it looks purchased but it doesnt have a download button. So what you basicly did is you made up a problem. You failed to help me. You stole 0,90 and still dont care to answer me back. Not community nor if there is any workers here, themselves. I wanted to support one of my favorite singers and this is what I get in return.

How do I fix the GRAY boot-up screen with FLASHING QUESTION-mark FOLDER?
When I turn on the MacBook Pro laptop, I opened up the Safari Browser and its when the problem started. It was stuck on an loading infinite loop. I decided to force quit the application and/or turn off the mac by the Menu options, It did not work. So I did a "Hard" Shut-down and restarted the Mac, the Boot up screen stood gray for like a minute until the Flashing ? Folder icon showed up!.
My sister's laptop's warranty is expired so I wonder how can I fix it without having to spend too much money on a simple troubleshooting tip.
How can I download/create a boot-up Disk/Flash Drive so I can reset it to factory settings?
I cannot access the laptop because It's kind-of software bricked if you ask me. Also, I do not know how to check the Mac OS version outside of the "About Mac" menu. I do have another Mac which is a desktop computer with a CD drive.
I would appreciate some expertise on this issue a.s.a.p. Thank you!Ok, now I am stuck:
Why does my Mac boot its OS from the Flash Drive instead of the INTERNAL HARD DRIVE???a
If I start up my MacBook Pro, It will have the flashing question mark folder UNLESS i plug in the OS-Boot flash drive. When I at the desktop screen and work on a program, When I unplug the Flash drive, THE OS WILL CRASH AS IF I TOOK it's soul (OS x Lion) out of the body (MacBook Pro Laptop)
this is frustrating because when I did the INTERNET RECOVERY, When I install OS x Lion, the Flash Drive only show up as an option as opposed to the HDD.
I cannot format the hard-drive in DISK UTILITY because it's grayed out. This is just frustating. I never had problems with PC Windows OS recovery but this (Mac OS). -
How do You fix a iPhone 4S with a smudge under the front screen and a shattered backplate?
You can purchase replacement parts from a third-party vendor, or a replacement iPhone from Apple. If you choose the former, there are many online videos to assist you with the teardown and repair.

My iMac freezes at start. I just get the gray screen and apple symbol.
I turned it off and on and then nothing. Just gray screen and spinning wheel. I also see the mouse pointer.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/. -
How do I fix the green screen on some videos. 15-g018dx
Please tell me how to fix the green screens on videos. It's on utube and facebook.
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi,
Try a clean installation of the flash plugin/activeX as follows.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
Flash Player Uninstaller.
When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has reloaded, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash. Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
When the installation has completed, restart the notebook.
If the above doesn't correct the issue, then try the following.
First of all, download and run the Shockwave uninstaller on the link below.
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/shockwave/uninstall/win/sw_uninstaller.exe
After this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has fully reloaded, download and install the latest version of Shockwave on the following link.
http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
Again, after this installation, restart the notebook.
Regards,
DP-K

I downloaded a book on iBook but when I tried to open it all I got was a empty gray screen. I can't do anything. How do I go back to my library? There are no icons, nothing.... Help
If tapping the book doesn't give a button at the top left to go back to your Library, then try closing the iBooks app completely and see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with iBooks 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iBooks app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
My MacBook Pro was downloading apps from iTunes and I shut the computer down at my I laws house or so I thought? When I pulled the computer out of my backpack it was still on?

I can boot it in the windows side and have an external hard drive with time machine backup on it but don't know how to load it without getting onto the Mac side?
Please help!turn off the mac completely
as soon AS you hit power button press following 4 keys
Option + Command + P + R

How do I fix the red screen on Premiere Pro CC 2014?
Past few weeks, Premiere Pro has not been playing some of my video files properly. Here are the computer specs.
Mac Pro (late 2013)
3.5 GHz 6-core Intel Xeon E5
32 GB 1866 MHz DDR3 ECC
AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
Recorded on:
Canon XF 300
1920x1080
29.97p
MXF files
What is odd is the Premiere file has six different videos apart of a series and only one of the sessions is showing red screens on both the program and source monitor. The other five sessions are fine. The original MXF files run fine, it is only when they are in that certain sequence.
Another variable is this happens on our other Mac Pro late 2013 but it is completely fine on our older machines (Mac Pro early 2008).
How can I fix this issue? I know there have been red screen issues in the past, but Adobe was supposed to have fixed that.Hello konagirl64,

How can I fix the error image and get the regular image to load?
Ever since the recent big update for Firefox I've been getting some sort of error for loading certain images.
Here: http://tinypic.com/r/103bf3l/8 I have put one of those sites that give that error
--The original image that is supposed to show is also available in that image
Certain sites give a different size of that error image, but it looks the most like an error triangle
I've already tried the troubleshoot of not loading images and none of the options worked
If someone has this problem or knows how to fix it, it would be a great helpSolution found:
The addon "Stylish" with the theme "Google two themes" interfered with the image loading of the sites. Disabling the theme was the solution. -
How do I fix the red screen of death issue?
iPad Air, 13 mo. old: working fine yesterday, plugged it in to charge (left it on) and about 8 hrs later I went to use it. When I opened the case, I had the red screen of death. No error messages, can't see any of the icons. just red screen. I finally got it to turn off using the home and off button. turning back on goes right to red screen. Attempted multiple times to restore using iTunes. Each time it gets stuck in "waiting for iPad to respond"? Anyone have a fix?
