How do you get Grab to activate.  When I click on it nothing happens; the icon simply rests in the dock..

Perhaps it is a flaw in my software, but when I seek to take a picture of the screen, I access Grab through the untilities folder.  Instead of giving me options, the Grab logo simply goes onto my dock and rests there.  Clicking on it produces nothing.  Very frustrating.

There is an alternative with key short cuts for screen shots:
command shift 3
command shift 4
Maybe your Grab.app is corrupt.

  • How do you get money credited back when your child mistakenly buys an app while playing a free kids game?

    How do you get money credited back when your child mistakenly buys an app while playing a free kids game?  We need to refund the charges and apps that were mistakenly purchased by a child while playing a free kids game on Ipad.

    There are no refunds, but you can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception.

    what version of iPHoto do you have? Of the OS? is the iPhoto icon you are speaking of in the Dock?

    Somehow my "IPhoto" icon now says "Preview".  When I click on "Preview" nothing opens up except the bar says Preview.  When I click on the Preview on the bar, a box opens up with different items, except when I click on any of them, there is nothing there.  The only thing that work is the "quit preview".  However, it is still there where my IPhoto icon should be.  I can't get into my IPhoto.  How do I get rid of this "Preview" and how did it end up taking over the IPhoto icon???
    If you go to your Applications folder and double click on iPhoto what happen?

  • I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap

    I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap. I am trying to export 33 PSD files in BRIDGE to a PDF like I used to do on my other computer with bridge.

    Let's start with the general things.
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    Unfortunately, there is no answer to this problem via this link. It may be that this is simply how the software actually works. It is a design fault in Adobe Photoshop Elements. It is possible to temporarily hide the dock within 'system preferences'. Oh well. Someone may know better.... I hope!

  • TS1717 When I click on ITUNES nothing happens

    When i click on ITUNES nothing happens. Tried repairing, still nothing happens.

    I was having the same problem, that when I click my shortcut or the icon on the tray by the start button, I get an hourglass but nothing ever happens. I read these posts, and I did this:
    First, I repaired iTunes and QuickTime under my add/remove programs. I had clicked my iTunes icon previously, and ironically, I had problems repairing QT because it said iTunes was currently trying to use it, even though iTunes wasn't appearing on my desktop.
    When I accessed QT, it worked perfectly, and when I clicked the link on the QT player to the "free single of the week" I was directly linked to my iTunes and it worked.
    iTunes also worked when I accessed the program through my start menu.
    The iTunes icon on the tray also worked when I clicked on it with the Task Manager open.
    See if any of these things work for you, I am suspecting that perhaps there is just a problem with the icon and the shortcut. Does anyone know how to fix those?

  • When I click on IDVD nothing happens.  It is like the application is gone.

    When I click on iDVD nothing happens.  It is like the application is gone.

    Hi
    Was it ever there ?
    iMovie suggest's it (as Share to iDVD) - but on Newer Macs - Apple decided it to not deliver iDVD any way.
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • HT1349 I do not have an APPLE.  But I downloaded ITunes on my HP computer.  I also paid for Miss Kitty slot machine and it says it has been downloaded.  But when I click on it nothing happens.  HELP !!!!!!

    First of all, I do not have an Apple anything.  I just down loaded ITUNES onto my HP dekstop computer.  It went in with no trouble.  I also paid, and downloaded Miss Kitty Slot Machine App.  It was downloaed, it says.  But, when I click on it, nothing happens.  I am new to all this stuff, what am I doing wrong?  PLEASE HELP !!!!!

    Hi,
    The items that you can purchase from iTunes in the form of apps are for either an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod) or for Mac Computers.
    The chances are the app you have downloaded is either written for an iPhone or iPad (iOS device -although even then there can be differences) or for a Mac computer (even then it may be OS version specific)
    In a search for "Miss Kitty Slot" in iTunes I found this
    It says it is an iPhone App.

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on the version twice, append the last three digits of the computer's serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= , load the page, and check the computer's maximum OS version. If that's the current version, click here and read the entire page. If not, you can't use the Mac App Store version.
