How do I get rid of the checkerboard grid on my files?
I have just bought an iMAC 21.5" and installed my CS3 photoshop program.
When I used it on my old iMAC 20" every file had a white background.
Now every file has a checkerboard pattern or grid -- very small. Drives me crazy.
They are also on the little thumbnails on the Layer list.
There must be a way to delete this "screen" "grid" but I cannot find it on VIEW or anywhere else.
Thanks for getting back to me!
My 7-year-old iMAC 20” blew up on Friday AM — CRACK!!! and smoke issued forth.
A techie friend suspected it was a power supply component
and hoped my HD & two External HDs survived the explosion. (They did.)
So I bought a new iMAC 21.5 and re-installed CS3 from disc.
Any new files I created since the CS3 re-install were fine (WHITE already clicked on.)
It was all my old PS files (hundreds of them) that Opened with the grid present
after the reinstall of CS3 in my new computer. They had not been created with a grid.
As an artist I was frantic as the checkerboard effect was impossible for me to work on
and simply adding a layer of white underneath did not resolve the layer thumbnail images
which were a strip (my files can be 600 layers) of tiny checkerboards.
I have resolved the issue using this advice from an artist PS user friend:
Go to Pref. in Photoshop — then Transparency & Gamut —
I made the grey checks into white using Custom.
What I am now troubled with are the FONTs this CS3 re-install on my iMAC 21.5 has eliminated
causing me no end of work to fix. Six of my favourite fonts. Gone.
O well. Perhaps I will find I have been given beautiful new ones to play with.
Thanks again, Brett.

Since downloading ios5 on my iphone 4 a few days ago, the capacity guage in itunes shows "other" as over 21Gb and i can no longer fit any music on my iphone.
How do I get rid of the other stuff?
capacity available on 32 Gb iphone is 28.49Gb
i previously had 21.97 Gb music, over 6 Gb photos, about 1Gb of apps, and minute amount of audio
now i have no music, 5.4 Gb photos and similar (0.8Gb) for apps and audio. i have deleted heaps of photos and unused apps to try to make space but obviosly this is a much bigger problem. I also created a smaller music folder on itunes to sync to but at present no music is selected for syncing due to the lack of available space.
i have 15Gb icloud account now also which is about half full.
Ive done a little research and heard similar tales but with much smaller other totals than this. Can you help?
i cant update my apps as i get a message saying i do not have enough available space.I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first. -
Some of my songs are listed twice on my iPod itself. However, when I plug the iPod into my computer, the songs don't show up twice in iTunes when I click on device/music. How do I get rid of the duplicate songs on my iPod?
that is odd! that should not be happening.
Are you syncing your songs right off of itunes itself? because it should be syncing over to the ipod however it is listed in itunes. -
How can I get rid of the dates and time on my Notes
How do I get rid of the dates and times on my Notes that appeared when I updated to 8?
Yes, it's seems like a poor design decision.
By putting the date on the line below the Note title in the Notes Index, the app shows half the number of notes per page AND if you have a large number of notes, it takes twice as long to stroll down.
I doubt the designer actually uses the app.

THAT you can't change. Silly of Apple not to provide a setting to back out the animation effects either as a whole or individually. -

How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?
It seems this problem is caused by the software to increase the readibility of upper letters (clock battery etc.) It be nice to leave us the control of choosing background letter color too if we are using brighter images or darker images.
I'm using iphone 4s and it appeared after I updated to new patch. 7.1.1.
Thanks,
Cem
