How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

Can someone help me?How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

    Press the Shift, Command, and 3 keys to capture the whole screen.
    Press the Shift, Command, and 4 keys to capture a draggable part of the screen, or follow it with the spacebar to capture a window.
    Open the PNG on the desktop. Alternatively, combine either of the above with the Control key to put the screenshot onto the clipboard instead of the desktop.

  • Hi I do not want iTunes to open up automatically when I turn on my macbook pro.  I tried going to System Preferences Users and Groups Login Items and then I took iTunes off the list but it still opens up automatically when I turn on my laptop.

  • I cannot repair the HD even from the installation cd of a macbook pro (i have macbbook with Snow Leopard). Even more, i cannot reboot from the HD to export the cd etc... Can you please help?

    History:
    Started with stucking. No sesponse to any attempt than force quit.
    When i checked the disc, replied: nod fail, repair with installation cd. Sth like that.
    I borrowed the installation disc of a macbook pro (i have macbook). I run the utilities to repair the disc 2 times. Failed. After i didn't know how to take out the cd. I had to force quit.
    Then, at start, it takes 10-15 minutes with the Apple sign and a small silver bar, until it switch of by itself. I repeated the procedure 10 times totaly, the same!
    Sime times, when i start from the installation cd ( i hold "c" at the start), it does'n "see" the hard drive to start up with.
    Important detail: When i run the disc repair operation from the Disc Utility of the Installation cd, on the column of the volumes, the "HD Macintosh" characters are grey, whether others are normaly black.
    Budget detail: i don't have money to buy products etc, so i count on your advises!!! I prepare a performance though, soon, and i can add the trademark of the sponsor, if somebody is interested... All the data in the computer are about this work, so i cannot risk to lose them.
    Thank you in advance!

    It sounds as if your MacBook's hard drive is dead, or possibly dying. Replacement drives are fairly inexpensive. You'll need an install DVD like the one that came with the MacBook. Contact Apple via expresslane.apple.com to order a new set. Once you have the machine up and running, restore your data from your backups. If you don't have backups, contact a data recovery outfit to see what they can get off of your old hard drive.
    Backups are important!
    Best of luck.

  • Since the Yosemite upgrade on my macbook pro I have not been able to sync with my Nokia Lumia

    Since the Yosemite upgrade on my macbook pro I have not been able to sync with my Nokia Lumia and assume that this is an Apple issue?

    Two immediate questions:
    1. Why is this posted in Servers and Enterprise Software?
    2. What has this to do with Apple Remote Desktop?
    If you have posted incorrectly, then you should try posting this in the proper forum.

  • I have a MacBook Pro. When I go to system preference, the external speakers option does not appear in the Input tab. Help?

    I have a MacBook Pro. When I go to system preferences, the external speakers option does not appear on the input tab and, of course, the external speakers do not work. Help?

    When you plug headphones in, or external speakers, where it states "internal speakers", it will rename that "headphones", say. Unless you are running an external sound card.

  • Why doesn't the track pad zoom feature on my Macbook Pro work with the newest version of Firefoz?

    The track pad zoom feature doesn't work with the latest version of Firefox. It did on the previous version. I used to use Firefox as my default browser, but no longer use it very much due to the incompatibility of this version on my Macbook Pro.

    Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4.
    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

  • I just noticed that I can no longer get the shuffle feature on my iTunes 10.4.0.80 to work. I've turned it off and on, but it still just goes in order of the playlist. I too have been getting an error msg at computer startup.

    I'm not sure how long it's been like this, but I just noticed that my songs no longer shuffle when playing from iTunes (running 10.4.0.80). No matter if "shuffle songs" is off or on, they still just play on down the playlist in order.  Could this be related to other problems I'm seeing listed that seem associated with the latest update? I also get an error msg when my computer is starting up that I think is associated with this latest update (something about not being able to read a line from "Apple sync helper" (hope I haven't butchered that too much, haven't had a chance to copy the error msg)). Is this something that's likely to be fixed in a later update?

    After looking at other people's posts, I think it's official: there is a bug. Itunes support said I should not have lost the drag/drop tool and I haven't on the laptop that is running itunes 10.4 and operating system 10.6.8. I chatted with someboby who lost both his drag/drop and side scroll and what we have in common is a wacom tablet for a mouse. My laptop is a wireless mouse. I reinstalled whatever updated driver that wacom has out there, shut the system down for night, hoping for magic, but alas none to be had. So if I want to change song order, I network the laptop and desktop, share the screen on the laptop, drag and drop to my heart's content and curse Apple for making me work this hard to find the tool that was once at my fingertips. Apple also let me know that if I want to share songs in household that the hundreds on songs that were purchased for .99 need to be repurchased for another .30. Maybe Apple is holding my drag/drop tool captive til I pay up the money or Maybe the next update will fix the problem, I for one give up for now.

  • Time Machine error: The backup disk image "/Volumes/----/----MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use and resource unavailable?

    I have a MacBook Pro 13" 2010 model running Mountain Lion. I have always been able to use Time Machine with my Time Capsule. Just today I have been receiving the same error message whenever I would back up my computer:
    I removed my name before "MacBook Pro". It takes a long time "Looking for backup disk..." first. The disk I put with the time capsule is called Huge Backup, and in Huge Backup there is my sparsebundle file called "----- MacBook Pro." When I open Finder, open my time capsule, and then open my sparse folder, it should mount a drive where I can see my computer's backups. That doesn't work. Then I get this message:
    I once again removed my name before "MacBook Pro" but I can open my sister's sparsebundle who is running Mountain Lion on the same network and her backups work fine. I have researched this topic and have tried to repair the disk in Disk Utility, remount all the drives, remove the drive and restart the backups, and even restart my computer and the Time Capsule. Nothing worked. It just was working yesterday, but now I get this in the settings along with a caution symbol in my menubar:
    Is there anything I could do to fix this? Reconnecting it in AirPort Utility (5 or 6) didn't work. Also, for some reason, the error renamed Huge Backup to Huge Backup-1 as you can see above and below in the messages. I downloaded the Time Machine Buddy widget and this is the error report I got. I replaced my names or private info with [-----]. By the way, the network is called NDR Network, and the Time Capsule is alled NDR Time Capsule. Here's the error I keep getting:

  • How do I select just the pictures I want from my itouch to my MacBook Pro, I have already picture from my touch already in the iphoto, that don't need duplicated?

    Wanting to transfer pictures from my itouch to MacBook Pro, when I connect itouch to Mac, it shows all the pictures on the itouch and some have already been put on, was wondering how you select just the one's I want to import, I've tryed control C, command C, and it doesn't do it.   Would you be able to help me thanks.

    maxfromwarsaw,
    Why do you find it acceptable to yell at this forum, "HOW LONG TILL I GET A RESPONCE?"? We are not here to do your bidding. These forums are read and responded to by users same as yourself; users helping users. Be aware Apple tech support does not reside here.
    Users respond to questions at their own convenience based on their knowledge of the question asked.
    My suggestion is to go to the iPod Touch forum located at:

  • Why does the iCal app on my MacBook Pro only have a 2-year archive? Where did everything before that go? And can I get it back?

    I use my iCal as a daybook and every now and again need to reference events or occurences from several years ago. I tried to look something up from back in 2010 and the iCal on my MacBook Pro only has iCal data from Jan 1, 2011 onwards. Everything I've put in prior to that seems to have disappeared! I can't find anything under preferences that mentions archiving/storage. Can I change the setting so that this info is kept forever? And can I get my previous info back?

    You can only sync with one computer. When you synced to the new computer it would have erased it and synced what was on the new computer.
    You always need to have a backup, an iPhone is not a storage device.
    When you get a new computer you need to transfer your library before syncing
    If you don't have a backup you may be out of luck
    The only thing would be if you're in the US and have access to the iCloud beta to reload purchases

  • While in traget disk mode to fix a black screen Macbook pro,  I trashed my boot from system library...oops - it trashed the working mac file and now I have no ability to open my trash to regain it... I do have an Imac, and connecting cable.

    I trashed a system window boot file while in target disk mode: attempting to repair a black screen in macbook pro A,  it removed the file from working macbook pro B.  Now I can't open the trash to regain it.  I have an Imac, and can set up target disk mode, but am not sure where to go from here.. Help!

    So, next I used Target mode...saw the HD icon on my IMac display and "loaded" Yosemite back onto the Macbook Pro, I thought, but no!  it loaded it onto my Imac -  so, had to wait til that was done to continue....next day...I decided to try command-R w/startup, recovery mode,  and use wifi to reload Yosemite onto my Macbook Pro, because I didn't want to go deeper into the issue - just wanted my computer working again.
    That worked, of course. 
    Thank you for your help - I always learn a lot on this site.

  • What is the last generation of Retina MacBook Pro that have replaceable parts such as hard drives and memory?

    I am interested in purchasing a used (probably refurbished) Retina MacBook Pro. Probably from the Apple Online Refurbished store.
    Can anyone tell me what generation of Retina MacBooks were the last that had upgradeable parts such as hard drives, memory, etc.? Preferable in the terms of month/year like Apple states in their refurb section. I am aware that  the remaining non-Retina MacBook is upgradeable.
