  • How to? switch between the following mission control preference "group windows by application" on the fly? OR have both readily available

    Is there any way to switch between the following mission control preference "group windows by application" on the fly?  I would like to turn this feature on and off quickly. OR have both readily available?
    If osx 10.9 does not support this, does any one know if automater can be used to creat a short cut to turn this preferance on and off?

    I currently added the preferance control icon for mission control on my dock.

    Do you mean the general System Preferences icon? ...If so, it's possible to put the icon specifically for the Mission Control pane in the Dock:
    I'm on Mountain Lion and that Preference Pane is in: Macintosh HD > System (not Users) > Library > PreferencePanes > Expose.prefPane
    ...Drag that Expose.prefPane to the right-hand side of the Dock, say, next to the Trash. Then you can simply click on the resulting Expose Prefs icon in the Dock to open its Prefs panel.

  • How to move between applications in Mission Control using non-english keyboard?

    I have recently started using MC and really like it. I prefer doing as much navigation as possible from the keyboard.
    I can do most of the things I want to with MC but I have not been able to find out how to switch between open applcations on the selected Desktop while in MC.
    I have tried searching for a solution online without success. To begin with it would be great if it is at all possible but preferably, it would be something that could be configured by me in System Preferences/Keyboard.
    I would think that other people would want to do somehting similar so hopefully there is a solution.
    Thanks in advance,
    Thor

  • Can't drag folders or files between apps using mission control

    I've been using Lion without any incident so far, but now that I've downloaded the lastest update (10.7.2) I can't drag a file or folder using mouse click (or my wacom tablet) between apps or folders - gestures simply will not work.
    Once I click on a file, the multi-touchpad stop responding - if this is for real, Mac just lost it's allure... the nimble feature of exposé and/or mission control was this sole ability to navigate through apps and draggin files.
    What's the status, anyone got this issue already?

    I've been encountering the exact same problem! that was my favourite multi-touch gesture of all, which improved the productivity greatly. The only workaround for me is to assign hot-corners to mission control and drag files i want to the corners, but I really hope there's an explanation for this because i would really like that feature to be back

  • Switch between Windows in Mission Control

    What is the shortcut to switch between windows, add a Space or delete a space in Mission Control?
    I bring Mission Control with CONTROL - UP. However, once I see all windows, I cannot choose the application with a keyboard shortcut, nor add or delete a space with a keyboard shortcut.
    Any ideas?

    Control  right/left arrow or control space number will switch between Desktops.
    Tom delete a Desktop, select it and an X should appear in the top left corner of the Desktop.
    To add a Desktop, slide the cursor to the top right corner and a + sign should appear.

  • Moving Between Apps Using Mission Control

    Hello,
    Does anyone know of way that I can quickly move between apps using the arrow keys and Mission Control?  For example, in Snow Leopard if I use Mission Control (F3) I could easily move between all of my apps and/or multiple instances of an app by using the arrow keys. 
    In Lion if use Mission Control the apps come up but I have to actually click on the one the app that I want to bring up.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    I use the three finger swipe:
    The three finger swipe works in Mission Control too. There are lots of ways to accomplish this.
    ⌘ Tab works for all open apps, including those that are "minimized".

  • How to see hidden apps in Mission Control

    In Exposé in Snow Leopard at the low part of the screen, I could see all my hidden apps. In Mission Contrtol (Lion) I don't get to see the hidden apps. I've gone through all the system preferences and I did not see anything to be able to active it, I mean, to be able to see my hidden apps when I launch Mission Control.
    Has anyone already solved this issue somehow?
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards.

    YES . you get it.
    Not thing to apologize. you don;t do anything wrong. sorry about my word i'm not good in english.
    it call Minimize windows
    by your answer that is ok. The window will go to stay on Dock by click in  >System Preference >Dock > Uncheck Minimize windows into application.
    but someone (me and topick owner Jmayorperes) we check in minimize window to application icon . because i want a static Dock . dont want many icon on Dock when i minimize.
    and old style expose is allow me to see all active window and all minimize windows in same place. by move mouse to hot corner .
    But Lion if you want to see  Minimize window you must >>>  .. hold click to icon and select > show all window .. That's it.   http://postimage.org/image/2wd9ly7no/
    but i think 1-2 second difference not good .
    That why we try to get it back . it just change by apple. maybe it good for people who use touchpad or andything i don't know.
    but for me it difference. and have to change behavior hope it come back in next update
    Thanks you AMMOCAN

  • Dropping files to fullscreen apps through mission control results in app folder opening and in some sort of task switching madness

    In Snow Leopard I got used to attach documents in mails by dragging and dropping files from the desktop to the message window. To do so  I used active corners (spaces, exposé). Now, with Mission Control in Lion I've tried to keep that workflow but this leads me to an awkward problem. To reproduce it in my computer I do the following:
    Pick up a file from the desktop --> drag it to lower right corner (opens mission control) --> drag it to full screen mail space, press space to switch (applications folder opens inside mission control), and a lot of apps too (those the cursor hovered).
    At the same time, mail full screen window opens (as waiting time selected in finder preferences for triggering is short), then Lion turns crazy entering in some sort of spasmodic task switching mode, which lasts after I find some clear space to drag the file back in the desktop.
    Did any other user  experience something similar? Is there something I could do to help to fix the problem?
    Thanks for you answers.
    [Edit: Ok, so I started trying with other apps and it turns that every time I drag and drop any file to a fullscreen app in mission control and use the space key to open it, I get a similar behavior. I did it in Scrivener and it resulted in photoshop and itunes opening,  Scrivener vanished and but left an empty (like dashboard's) desktop.]

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    >>Running bootcamped Win7, yes power consumption is more, a lot more,....indications are no.
    Sorry, can you clarify on this one - do you mean the power consumption is more DURING the use of Windows, or ALL of the time (even when using the Mac as normal with OSX).... also what did you mean by indications?
    >>From the parameters of what you say your use would be, Id recommend the I5 with 8gig of ram. the 12 hour >>batt. life is only rated for the 13" on the I5, ....not the I7.   
    Sounds like my first guess was about right - and good point about the battery life - as that is something that's quite important to me!
    >>The "switch" is extremely easy. Ive seen grandmothers switch to a MAC and have its 'everyday use' >>conquered in under a week. So, you should have no worries, its extremely user friendly, no worries of virus, >>etc.
    Glad to hear I've done more research and already seen a few features I can see myself preferring a lot more to the Windows system!
    >>As a former computer repairman, Ive owned nearly 200 diff. laptops (many were free, or Franken-computers >>built from parts) and I can honestly say the Macbook AIR is the finest piece of beloved hardware Ive ever >>owned by a mile.
    >>Many people incorrectly see the THIN nature of the Air and incorrectly conjecture its "less than" a full laptop, >>but the contrary is the case.
    Nah, I don't associate size with performance - especially these days, everything is getting smaller. My concerns are really just about whether to upgrade for extra performance, and using the OS - once I have those nailed I am pretty cofident the hardware will perform well.
    >>Additionally the AIR is the only Mac that has 802AC wifi, new Haswell cool-running processor, and extremely >>long 12 Hr. batt life on the I5 13" configuration.
    Yeah that battery life is one of the big sellers
    Cheers for the tips,

  • How can I switch between apps without going to home screen?

    Is there anyway to switch between apps with one tap? (ie. without going to home screen first). Kind of like a command-tab feature.
    Steve

    Well, you can have one app that you can get to with a double push of the home button (set in settings which you want), but I think it's only your contacts list, or your ipod app. Still useful though.

  • How do I stop Firefox mobile from having to restart when switching between apps?

    When I'm switching between apps, firefox takes 10 seconds to load up again. Why isn't it already loaded since I just had it up? The Opera browser doesn't do that.

    Android automatically closes apps in the background when it needs more memory. To let Firefox run in the background longer, we will need to reduce its memory usage. We are continuing to work on this with each new version of Firefox.

  • I updated my iPad to ios 7.1, and now I can't double click on the home button to switch between apps, or to close them. What happened? How can I fix this?

    I can't double click on the home button to switch between apps, or to close them. This happened after I updated to ios 7.1

    Swiping up from the bottom of the screen with four fingers did not bring up the app preview. A single press on the home button still brings me back to the home screen, but a double press of the home button does nothing following updating to 7.1   Given that, when I added a software home button as suggested by DIAVONEX, I found that all of the apps WERE still open! So thank you DIAVONEX, and you should be careful, bobseufert, as your information was inaccurate.( I did try turning it off and that didn't change anything. ) I don't really want a software home button on my screen, but I guess I will use it until either there is another update to resolve this glitch or someone else identifies a quirky setting that I inadvertently activated...

    You need the Gaming APP for switching (not Afterburner): http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/gamingApp.zip
    Afterburner is for manual overclocking (for advanced users) if not using the modes.

  • Ios7 Update Problems on iPad 3 - My iPad is not going to black screen after not being touched.  Also, am I crazy; I can't find timing adjustment to go to black.  Finally, iPad slow to switch between some catgagories in control panel

    O.K.  I found 3 issues on my iPad 3 after ios update:
    1.  iPad does not go to black after non-use
    2.  iPad is slow to switch between some catagories in control panel
    3.  Speaking of control panel; have I lost my mind?  I can't find time adjustment responsible for iPad going to black.

    Outside of the contact number for that you've already used I don't know another way of direct contact. Here are some things that they may or may not of had you try that might help you. If you will go to the settings app and pick general on the right-hand side you will see accessibility. Within that you can adjust a text size make the text bowl you can also increase the contrast. You can also adjust the brightness and control panel.
    As for Siri again in the settings app under general you should see Siri on the right-hand side with the switch to turn it on. If that is turned on and you're still having issues
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Switch Between Apps shortcut doesn't work, tip won't go away

    The only solution I could find for this is to move my mouse to the top left of the screen, but it doesn't work when I do. Therefore, whenever I have an app open, the ****ing tip to switch between apps won't leave my screen. Same thing for the tip that
    shows me where the start button is, only when the tip isn't actually there, I can use the button without a hitch. Seriously frustrating considering I haven't had a computer for almost a week and this happened the moment I started it up.

  • How to switch between messages in the BlackBerry Hub

    With the release of BlackBerry 10 version 10.1, we’ve added a new gesture to the BlackBerry Hub that allows you to quickly switch between your next and previous messages. It’s simple: while viewing a message drag your finger from the left to the right and in one continuous motion swipe up or down.
    For example, in the following screenshot you’ll notice I am viewing ‘Test 08”. To get to the next message, “Test 09”, all I need to do is swipe from left to right (red arrow) followed by swiping up (green arrow) in a single motion. To switch to the previous message, “Test 07”, I complete the same gesture, but swipe down instead (blue arrow).
    Tip: Using a BlackBerry Q10 or Q5? On top of using this gesture to switch between messages, you also have the option of pressing the N key to view your next message, or the P key to view a previous message.
    If this gesture doesn’t appear to be working on your device, verify you are using BlackBerry 10.1.0.4181 or later by going to Settings > About and reviewing the OS Version field. If the OS Version is lower than 10.1.0.4181, check for updates by going to Settings > Software Updates.
    For more details about the availability of BlackBerry 10.1, check out Inside BlackBerry’s post on BlackBerry 10 Software Updates.

    I would set up a variable before you get to that node, lets call it $EmpID and assign to it the value of the prompt you want to play lets say 12345 which would be the library promptID. It will then play prompt, get digits, and once you validate if it goes through the expression that flags it as invalid, in that node re-declare the variable, but this time give it the value of the new prompt you want to play, then sent it back to the node which will then play the new prompt and collect the digits.
