How to go back if you make a mistake?

I have a new N8.  I've googled and searched help but can't find the answer.  How do you go back or cancel out of something if you've opened it by mistake or have changed your mind (like in messages)?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

 In that scenario all you need to do is press the green tick to close the keyboard. You will then see two buttons at the bottom of the screen, Options and Close.
All the best.

  • Is there a way to go back into the program pages? Like in windows if you make a mistake you can hit a back button

    Please help! I was writing a paper and went to select all to copy and paste and hit paste instead of copy. Is there a way to go back like there is in windows?

    It depends on what operating system you are using. In Lion you have a chance to revert to an earlier Version. In Snow Leopard you would have lost the ability to Undo when you Saved.

  • Just got my first Mac desktop. How in the world do you make an icon?

    Just got my first Mac desktop.  Cannot figure out how to make a favored website an icon.  Seems like it should be simple, but am evidently having a brain cramp.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Drag the tiny icon for it to the left of its name in the browser's address bar to the desktop or to the right of the Dock's divider line as desired.

  • What is the solution after you make the mistake of updating your phone to os5.11? It ruins your Bluetooth pairing and can't be fixed

    After updating my iPhone to 5.11 there's no remedy to get my Bluetooth in my brand new Acura to function- the apple guy said there's no fix until they repair the os which will be months -this is costing me bucks cuz I use the phone for business in my car

    The difficulty that I have is that based on the information I have available the repair agents will only tell you they cannot help is if the phone is outside of warranty, outside of warrantable condition or they cannot find a fault with the handset. is there any other information they have provided you regarding their lack of assistance that may help us to come to root cause of this?

    After plugging in your camcorder, I would run Software update just one more time.
    I would also try to see if the app "Image Capture" doesn't see your camcorder. This is found in your applications folder but you can get to it easily by hitting command and space bar to bring up spotlight and then typing "Image Capture".
    the current version of iMovie is 9.0.7
    you could try creating a new user and seeing if the camera doesn't connect from there.
    if it doesn't then you might need to find a friend with a compatible OS until Sony decides to update it's support for OSX.
    I looked on their site but it doesn't seem like they've ever supported it with your model.
    you might also want to send feedback to apple as to your experience, although their support is limited to their own hardware, so calling Sony might be a better idea...

  • Can you make a folder and it's contents temporarily "invisible"---sort of?

    Can I make a folder and it's contents, temporarily invisible? I don't mean I don't want to see it. I mean I want to make it such that if an automated process was scanning my computer, it temporarily wouldn't see that folder and it's contents.
    For instance, let's say I have a folder on an external firewire drive containing video files. And I'm going to run a batch process or automation that says: "Look at everything on that external drive and move it to another designated location"...but I don't want it to move one folder. And I have several folders on the external drive and I need to keep making some of the folders "visible" to the process or "invisible".
    I know I can physically move the individual folders to another location temporarily, run the process, and then copy them back...but I'm trying to determine if there is anything built into OSX 10.6 that
    lets you identify a folder and temporarily make it and it's contents "invisible" in the sense that I described above.
    To be clear, I don't need the folder to actually disappear...I just need it to be "jumped over" or ignored by any batch processes that would be scanning the external drive, and after I run the process, I want to make it "visible" again.
    Thanks in advance for any input.

    You normally wouldn't want to change the rights to your name in a situation like this. What you'd want is to have the other app logon to your computer with a different username, (you have to create the additional user in System Preferences,) then change the privileges for that username. This would eliminate the need for you to have to change the settings all the time.
    In addition, if you make a mistake, you could prevent any access by your username, which means you'd have to logon as some other administrative user in order to fix your username's privileges. This is why I said I wouldn't recommend this as a first choice.
    And are there any keyboard shortcuts for this?
    No, but I imagine you could create an Applescript to do this. But as I said above, if you have the process use a different username, then set the appropriate privileges for that username, you wouldn't need to change the rights all the time. Just set them once the first time.

  • How do I edit suggestions Firefox makes to automatically fill in a field?

    When I attempt to fill in a form, as I type,a Firefox will offer suggestions as to what to fill in. For example, the web form asks for a date. I want to enter 5/25/2011. As I have filled out this form before, Firefox offers suggestions of 5/25/2009, 5/25/2010, and 5/25/2011. I no longer will be entering 5/25/2009 or 5/25/2010, so I will not need those suggestions any more. How do I get rid of them? As it's annoying to have them constantly showing up. ( The same thing occurs if you make a mistake, for example, in typing an e-mail address. The mistake keeps showing up as a suggestion. )

    how do you make it not so sensitivity. when turned off set down it comes back on or when working out shirt brushes ipod and it changes music

    You didn't say which model of iPod Nano that you have, but generally there should be a lock setting, that can be turned on or off, to prevent accidental changes in settings. And, there is also a setting to turn on or off a feature called, "Shake to Shuffle." It allows you to change songs by just shaking the iPod.

  • I wanna ask you something. My bro has an iPhone 5s that disabled for 23 million because of the time changed to 1976. So, how to make it back into 2015, make it enabled without erase the data

    I  wanna Ask you something. My brother has an iPhone 5s that disabled for about 23 millions minutes  the time changed to 1976. So how to make it back into 2015 without waiting for 23 millions minutes later and enabled it without erasing any data? Please answer me ASAP because I really need it. Thank you for answer!

    Hello theshadowhunters,
    There is not much you can do to change the time back because he will not have access to change the time. The only option to get passed this is to restore the iPhone. Once the iPhone is restored and have a back up, you can put that back on once the restore is complete. For more information, take a look at the article below.

  • How do you make the most of any "free" services/ca...

    I wonder if we can get a consensus of views that could contribute to a sticky on how to get the best value for money from BTBBA (and the other BT services that this is based upon).
    I'm constantly confused so please excuse my ignorance:
    Calls:
    We have three family members on different mobile numbers, all using the same account. We're on 600 minutes - and this usually does for all of us. I'm on the HTC s620; my wife is on an old vanilla Nokia (don't ask) and my daughter is getting our new HTC Hero ("free") upgrade.
    We all try to make calls to other mobiles from our mobiles (to make the best use of the included minutes from the 600 minute monthly allowance). 
    We also have a BT Broadband Talk account on our land-line, so when at home we tend to make calls to other landlines from our landline in the "free" periods. I assume that BTBBT is cheaper than standard BT Option 1 for land-line calls out of the free period, but I really don't know for sure!
    Even in the Broadband Talk free periods we make calls to other mobiles on our own mobiles as we assume that - even if we go over our 600-minute allowance, these inter-mobile calls will still be cheaper from a mobile than via BTBBT. Is that correct?
    I often link my s620 to the wi-fi network at home for casual (slow) web browsing, and then find that - on the odd occasion that someone calls us on our Broadband Talk number, my mobile will ring as well! I can live with that!
    As a previous BT Fusion user I was used to the idea that I could multiply my free minutes by calling on my mobile through the hub, but that's old hat now. I'm given to understand that the new benefit is that I can make calls via BT Openzone, but I don't know if these cost me or not? And what about BT Fon - if I can find a FON connection and make a call, does that cost, or not?
    If we don't use our 600 minutes in any one month I assume that the surplus rolls over. All of them, or is there a roll-over cap? If I roll over 100 minutes after month 1, and then have 150 minutes unused at the end of month 2, how many minutes will be rolled over to month 3?
    Texts:
    We have a big family text allowance, although having added some text blocks I'm a bit confused about the total allowance as the bill is so complicated to read. It seems we have 400 free texts included in the 600 minute bundle. To that I've added one or two blocks of texts; there's a bill entry for BT Mobile: 200 texts, and also a bill entry for BT Mobile: 300 Texts as well as an entry for the 400 Free Texts. However I'm only being billed for a BT Mobile: 200 Texts Bundle. Not complaining! Of course this could be because I upgraded part way through a month from 200 to 300 extra - but I'm thoroughly confused!
    Data:
    We've been super cautious about data. I switched to my current s620 (unused by my wife who didn't like the form factor) when my s710 started to fall apart. When I tried to activate this phone its software needed to be completely updated (not surprising as it had sat unused in its box for 16 months). A very patient lady from BT remotely connected to my PC to assist in getting the correct software on to the s620. However, she omitted to tell me that the default state would mean that all my emails would be flooding on to the s620 and I'd incur a whopping data bill as we only have the bundled free 10MB of Data. BT Customer Service have since done two credits - spanning two bills - for over £60 + VAT for erroneous data charges resulting from my software upgrade. For that I am very thankful!!
    Now that the HTC Hero is about to arrive I've decided to subscribe to the £5 Data charge for an  extra 500MB per month. I s that correct  - total allowance will now be 510MB?
    From what I've heard it is not easy to monitor your own account's data use. Is there an App for the Hero? Can I check anywhere from the HTC s620?
    What is the best strategy for getting free Data on the Hero? I'm assuming that the following is free - (a) connecting via WiFi on your own BT Home Hub (or someone else's BT Hub with their PIN/permission); (b) connecting via BT FON (c) using one's free monthly allowance on BT Openzone - how much data or time is this, and is it cost-effective to add to this data allowance, compared with overshooting on the BTBBA 500MB allowance?
    Other tips:
    As well as providing some responses and/or confirmation for the above, does anyone have some more tips for how to get the best value for money out of BT, with a mix of:
    BT land line
    BT Home Hub 2.0
    BT Broadband Talk account
    BT BBA To Go Mobile account
    Voice
    Text
    Broadband (we're on Option 3)
    Mobile Data via BT BBA To Go (Also, would a mobile dongle be a worthwhile/cost-eeffective back-up if you were about to go over the 500MB limit? Although I agree with everyone else who would like a larger allowance available than 500MB - especially on a 600 minute bundle being shard by two or three users)
    BT Vision
    I pay a lot to BT every month and I still don't regard myself as anywhere near expert enough in how to use/combine the services for the best value for our money.
    HELP Please!!!

    Wow!
    I'm not going to be of much use regarding answers but I sure am going to watching this post like a hawk for any replies. My package is a slightly diluted version of this and I do find the BBtalk and data limits hard to make the most of as well.
    If nothing else this totally highlights how complicated BT have managed to make their packages.
    A cynic would assume that they are trying to catch us out at every step and for us to either be overspending or not really getting the moneys worth.

  • My mac book air can't start installation, because i use windows installation in DOS to make partion, now no mac os on it. How to get back the mac os? i have a window based iso image from a friend, because in my country there is no Apple service.

    It sounds like you destroyed your boot partition and the recovery partition.  Depending on it's age, your MacBook Air might be able to do a net boot.  Plug and ethernet connection into it and attempt to boot.  If it has the right firmware, it will find a net boot configuration on the net and boot that.  Then it will give you a Recovery Partition like display and allow you to reinstall the OS X version that came with it.... assuming that it was Lion or ML.  If your computer came with Snow Leopard, then even the net boot won't work. 
    At that point you need a bootable USB Key, or an external DVD drive AND a Snow Leopard installation DVD. 
    An Apple Store, if there is one nearby, MAY be able to get you going again.  However, whatever is on the SSD now will be toast too.

  • How do you make imessage work? The icon is there. You can type in the recipient but are not allowed to hit the send button

    How do you make imessage work? We upgraded to verision5. The icon is there. You can type the message but the send button is not available.

    There is some instability in  iMessage.  It is a versatile and confusing app even though there are so few options in its use. 
    I had issues trying to get iMessage work on both my iPads and my iPhone. 
    ON the iPhone, turning off WiFi service and then trying iMessage fixed the problem.
    On the iPad 2, same thing.  Turning off WiFi service fixed it.
    On the iPad 1, I took a suggestion from zoomzoom and changed the WiFi network configuration on the iPad to use 8.8.8.8 as a DNS server and then use iMessage.  That fixed it.   Now I put the DNS back to default and it still works.
    I suspect the iPod Touch will have the same fix as the iPad.
    If you have a WiFi and 3G iPad or iPhone, try turing off WiFi and see if that fixes it. 
    Why?  (beware, some of this is guesswork)
    iMessage can talk SMS to cellphones and smartphones (that are using the cell-network).  It can also talk Apple iMessage format to iPhones and iPads whether they are on cell-network or on WiFi.  If you are talking to an SMS cellphone, iMessage figures that out and blindly sends your message.  If you are talking to a iOS5 device, iMessage figures that out too, checks to see that they are on-line, and then does something different if they are or are not on-line.  If you type in an email address, and not a phone number, I think iMessage attempts to see if the email address is registered with Apple (or iCloud or whatever) and if it is not, it does something to let you know, possibly by making the Send button not light up. 
    In order to register iMessage and an email, you have to let the iOS device see whatever service it is that iMessage uses.  That is where the problem happenes.  zoomzoom suggested manually setting the WiFi DNS to google's 8.8.8.8 IP address, then run IMessage, and that seemed to fix the problem.  Setting the iOS device to use 3G-only (by turning off WiFi) also fixed the problem.  I suspect going down to StarBucks or McDonalds and using their WiFi would also fix the problem.  Once the problem is fixed, it doesn't seem to come back so I can't test these 'fixes'. 
    To change the DNS on your iPad find your WiFi networks configuration, click on the blue arrow, touch DNS, backspace over the number that is shown, type in 8.8.8.8    Then click on the WiFiNetworks button at the top of the screen.  Now go run iMessage.  After that, you can delete the DNS entry again and leave it blank.  Your iPad will fill it in from the WiFi router when it needs it.

  • How do you make it send an email on a condition? Or automate emails?

    How do you make it automatically send emails or even on a condtiion? (like qty left of inventory is 0)

    As far as making the report emailed conditionally, if the report is an exception report (only showing items with inventory = 0, for example), then you could add this to the report footer to prevent an email from being sent if no exceptions exist (basic syntax):
    WhilePrintingRecords
    dim noEmail as number
    if count({any field}) = 0 then  ' If no records processed...
      noEmail = noEmail / noEmail ' divide by zero failure prevents email from being sent
    end if
    This assumes that the data coming back from the database will only be exception records.  If that is not the case, then you'll have to manually count the number of records with inventory = 0 and use that formula field in the IF statement above.
    The down sides to this technique are that this will cause BOE to not generate anything (not even a blank report), and the status of the run will be Failed...

  • How do you make an application open on a specific monitor?

    How do you make an application open on a specific monitor? I have two monitors, and I was able to get Firefox to open on the secondary display always by resizing it with the option or command key [I forget which one] and then quitting it. Now everytime I start it, it opens on the second monitor.
    However, when I try to do the same with QuickTime [when playing videos], it always opens on the primary display no matter what I do with it. How do I make it always open on the secondary display?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Thanks for the suggestion, but no, Spaces is not what I want. I have two physical monitors, and simply want an application to always open on one monitor, not be able to switch back and forth between different desktops.
