  • HT3399 F10, F11 and F12 will not control volume.

    I replaced the keyboard and my new keyboard and I cannot get the F10 to mute or F11 volume down or F12 volume up to work, at all.  How do I get these keys to control volume?

    Hello,
    Is this normal speakers or HDMI?
    I think Spark cured this for another person and the same problem...

  • Mouse movements cause F10, F11 and F12 automatically.

    Unusual problem...
    When i move my mouse in a particular way . e.g diagonally towards the spotlight ( top right corner) this has the same effect as pressing F11- i.e the windows shoot off towards the top of the screen and i ma left with my desktop. Infact other mouse movements can cause the same result as widgets appearing .
    can anyone help? I have a macbook. Although i have Leopard this problem was still in Tiger.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds like "hot corners"..
    Try going to System preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen saver.
    You will see a "Hot corners" button at the bottom where you can adjust what the mouse does as it hits the corner of the screen.
    Before spaces I used this shortcut a lot to reveal the desktop:)

  • How do you stop F11 and F12 beeping when I change volume?

  • My F11 and F12 keys do not affect the sound,

    My F11 and F12 keys do not affect the sound, The only way I can change the volume is through system preferences. How can i fix this?

    1. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own"
    2.Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    Best.

  • Why do F11 and F12 no longer invoke audio control?

    On my Intel powerbook,  F11 fills screen and F12 brings up dashboard. This just started happening. I don't see how to change this in keyboard preferences. Since I use the PB for recording and music, this is very annoying!
    OS 10.6.8

    If using the function key with F11 and F12 work properly (FN F11)  then it's probably the setting in System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard tab > uncheck "Use all F1, F2, etc keys as standard function keys"

  • I can't adjust the sound with the f11 and f12 key

  • How do I eliminate clicking and popping in .wav sounds?

    I tried importing a .wav file for background music in my Director movie. The .wav file is about 3 minutes long, and when I publish a projector I hear incessant clicking, popping, and skipping. What's the best way around this? Thanks in advance.
    [EDIT] Just now I tried substituting an .mp3 for a .wav -- it made no difference; popping, clicking, and skipping were still there.

  • How often is garbage collected and can I control it.

    The code I write tends to have a lots of graphics, video, audio all that stuff that uses lots of memory so I need to tidy up after myself. Are there any commands that force immediate collection? Any recommendations appriciated.

    So I would need CS4 to explicitly control?  I found a interesting link about garbage http://gskinner.com/talks/resource-management/    I also read that gc happens very differently in IE than FF which seems odd as they both use the same vm.

  • My sound control keys F10/F11/F12 do not respond at once this morning

    How can I make them functioning again ?

    Is there any way to either:
    1. make the F10, F11 and F12 keys provide the mute, sound lower and sound higher functions?
    that's the default isn't it? if it doesn't work for you uncheck the box "use F1..." in system preferences->keybaord&mouse->keyboard.
    2. have the sound functions assigned to other keys and leave the F10, F11 and F12 keys with their display application windows, display dock and dashboard functions?
    no. you can't reassign volume shortcuts. if you check the box mentioned above you'll have to use fn+F10 etc to get to them.
    I've tried various settings in System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse, but without success so far.
    Three sets of questions:
    1. Is System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse the right place to be looking?
    2. If so, how should I set the preferences to accomplish what I'm trying to do?
    3. If not, what is the correct application, and what should I specifically do?
    Thanks.

  • Keyboard sound keys not working (F10, F11 & F12)

    I just purchased a wired keyboard for my iMac and can't seem to get my volume control keys (F10, F11 and F12) working.  I've unticked the "Use all F1, F2 etc" box within system preferences > keyboard, and still doesn't seem to work.  Previously I was running the wireless bluetooth keyboard and had no issues.  I'm sure it's something quite simple, but any suggestions would make my life much easier..

    HI,
    Do an Archive and Install.
    To reinstall Mac OS X:
    Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
    Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select the destination disk, select your current Mac OS X disk (in most cases, it will be the only one available).
    Click Options. *If you want to save your existing files, users, and network settings, select “Archive and Install,” and then select “Preserve Users and Network Settings.”* If you want to erase everything on your computer and reinstall Mac OS X, select “Erase and Install.” You can’t recover erased data.
    Click Continue.
    Click Customize to select which parts of Mac OS X you’d like to install, or click Install to perform a basic installation (recommended).
    If you purchased a standalone version of Mac OS X, these installation instructions are in a booklet PDF file located on the Mac OS X Install Disc.
    If you need to reinstall the version of Mac OS X that was on your computer when you purchased it, or if you need to restore all the software on your computer, including Apple, bundled third-party applications, and printer drivers, review the instructions in the manual that came with your computer.
    If you need to reinstall Mac OS X and you’ve been using Time Machine for backup, you can easily restore your applications, files, and user settings from your Time Machine backup file after you’ve reinstalled Mac OS X.

  • How do i get f10/f11 to work as volume buttons

    how do i get f10/f11 to work as volume buttons,

    Hold the FN key as you press F11 and F12 for volume up and down.   If you'd like to have that as the default without the FN key then go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard tab > uncheck "use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys"

  • Function keys F11 and higher not working as expected

    Since I installed Leopard, my F11 through F15 keys act strange, the rest works OK. I use an external MS Comfort Curve keyboard with v6.2.1 (latest) of the Intellitype keyboard driver. I have switched off all keyboard shortcuts for function keys. I have set the System Preference to use the function keys as regular Function keys. Now the F11 is dead, the F12 is the eject, F13 through F15 are dead too. Switching the preference on or off only affects the F1 through F10 keys. There's no change for the F11 through F15 keys.
    When I switch to Parallels 3 with Windows XP, the F11-key acts the same as the PrtScn (which is F13) key, the F12 key does nothing, F14 (ScrLk) and F15 (Pause/Break) are dead.
    This IS annoying since I work on AS400 machines where you really need F11 and F12 + F23 (shift-F11) and F24 (shift-F12). Under Tiger, I did not have this problem - all settings worked as expected.

    Software updates of all concerned programs ans OS's have resolved the issue.

    Sounds like you've downloaded the OS X version of the game, which won't run on iOS devices. You need either this version <https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/angry-birds-star-wars/id557137623?mt=8> or this version <https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/angry-birds-star-wars-free/id578915438?mt=8> for your iPod Touch.
    The versions for iPad are <https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/angry-birds-star-wars-hd/id557138109?mt=8> and <https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/angry-birds-star-wars-hd-free/id578909807?mt=8>.
    Remember, all apps for your iPad or iPod Touch must be purchased through the iTunes App Store. You can do this directly on the devices by tapping App Store and searching for what you want.
