How to get the 'info' button working again in Spotlight?

The 'info' button to get info about an item in the search results window of Spotlight is no longer working for me. I have tried reindexing and trashing the preference file in the user library, with no luck. Any idea how to get this functionality back?
Thanks
Chris

I have the same problem after installing Safari 3, the more info icon in the spotlight results no longer works.

  • How do I get the home button working again

    The home button is no longer closing any open app, so to close anything that is open, I now have to do a hard shutdown and then reboot the iPad.  You can imagine how much this cuts down on my use.  It doesn't matter what app is open, I'm unable to close anything without shutting the iPad down entirely.  Help please

    You can use the "soft" Home button for the time being:
    Settings>General>Accessibility>AssistiveTouch>ON

  • My touch screen isn't working so I can't use my iPad.any ideas how to get the touch screen working again?

    My son has done something to his ipad2 and now his touch screen does not work so he can't get from the lock screen as the screen isn't responding to touch. Any idea I can't even switch it off to restart.

    Try a Reset...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

    If you have iOS 5 installed on it, you don't need a PC.  simply turn it on and set it up.
    if you don't have iOS 5 then you'll need a computer.

    If it's not available in your country and you do not have a copy of it in iTunes backed up on your computer, you don't.

    I recently stopped a download of the most current IOS-  I powered off the phone.  It now displays a charging cord with an arrow to an itunes icon.  How do I get the phone to work again.  Not near a computer with my itunes account and do not wish to continue the download.

    You will have to try a recovery mode restore, for what you need a computer with the latest version of iTunes.

  • How to get the webcam to work?

    Hi,
    As I don't have an instruction book for this computer, can anyone tell me how to get the webcam to work please?
    There is supposed to be something that pops up from the side of the screen, but I've left the mouse sit there for ages on all sides and nothing. Please assist me.
    Kit_e

    I refer you back to my original question.
    There used to be a bar at the side that popped up when you left the mouse sit there for a bit. It no longer pops up ... ie: it's disappeared and will not return ... this is what "started" the webcam for use as a webcam.
    I have no idea on how to use the webcam from any other place. There is no icon. There is no mention of it in the programs list. There is nothing. There is a webcam sitting there in the laptops lid, but I can't find where to "access it". Like I said there is no icon, nothing in the programs list.
    I want to be able to use it. You know, like you use a webcam. On the web, as a camera. No particular website or software that I have in mind.
    Thanks.

  • How do I get the capture to work again?

    the day before yesterday I captured media on FCE onto my hardrive with my Canon MiniDV cam with no problem. I haven't moved anything, and yesterday I tried capturing the same media and I got 'dropped frames' so capture stops. I tried unticking "Abort capture on dropped frames" so to see if it was to do with dropped frames, and then the message was "capture encountered a problem reading the data on your source tape. This could be due to a problem with the tape." and stopped capturing as well after 4 secs.
    I have tried 5 different tapes and they all work fine on the Camera, nothing unusual. Is there a way to get this thing to work again? thanks,
    intoto2002

    Are you using a cardbus with the camera or the drives? LaCie does not support the use of their drives with Canon cameras unless they are on separate buses. Macs only come with one built-in FireWire bus, so the recommendation is to use either a cardbus on a PowerBook a a FireWire card in a tower.

  • [SOLVED] Need some help getting the sound to work again

    Recently I changed the motherboard and CPU to an AM3 platform, everything works with my previous setup except sound.
    Reinstalling alsa-utils and rebooting had absolutely no effect. Google didn't help either.

    The motherboard documentation refers to it as "VIA VTI708S".
    VLC complains about alsa-lib. Reinstalling it also didn't help.

    Still, any ideas ? Or would you just rather let me squirm a little and diagnose the problem myself ?

    sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
    (I think it's what you tried to tell me, igndenok)
    Great. It took the bulk of my day trying to figure out how to get this thing to work.
    VolWheel is now set to adjust "Master Front" (it was previously set to "Master" with the old motherboard) and the Sonata volume bar apparently works too, just like I wanted (adjusting the PCM volume by default). Good. Great ! Now I just need to set the "snd-hda-intel" module to load at boot so I don't have to type "sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel" all the time and this thread can be considered SOLVED.
    sudo nano /etc/rc.conf
    ...and add the following:
    MODULES="... snd-hda-intel ..."
    (also removed snd-ac97-codec from the list because that's what the old mobo used)
    THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP !
    PS: Just out of curiosity, why is it called "snd-hda-intel" ? Why intel ? The CPU is AMD, the chipset is Nvidia nForce, sound is VIA...
    Anyone know ? I'll subscribe to this topic just in case anyone knows. Thanks again.

  • How can get my flash to work again?

    How can I get my flash to work again?

    Flash is not a feature of the Adobe Reader for iOS.
    To answer directly, though, per orders of Apple, Adobe has never released a version of Flash for iOS. You can't get something “to work again” if there never was such a product on this platform.

  • HT3669 Hi I have a Konica Minolta PagePro 1300W printer. This works with my Windows-based Toshiba laptop but not with my i-Mac. Can someone please advise me how I get the printer to work with my i-Mac? I have installed it but documents don't print. Thanks

    Hi I have a Konica Minolta PagePro 1300W printer. This works with my Windows-based Toshiba laptop but not with my i-Mac. I have the latest (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) OS-X software.
    I have installed the printer using 'System Preferences' on my i-Mac and it appears on the list of available printers but documents that I create just don't print.
    Can someone please advise me how I get the Konica Minolta PagePro 1300W printer to work with my i-Mac?
    Thanks, John Lee

    Looking at the Konica web site for the PagePro 1300W, I saw the following note.
    Please note: This printer is designed to be used in computer operating systems running MS Windows only. Operating systems such as UNIX, Macintosh, or Linux are not supported nor do we have workaround drivers available. Older MS Windows versions, such as Windows 3.1/95/98[pre-SE] and NT 3.51/4.0, are not supported.
    So KM are not going to help you. But the LinuxFoundation does provide a workaround that should allow you to print. Have a look at this web page. You will need to install all three packages as per the instructions from that page.
