HT201412 I bought my I pad 3 2 days ago and the touchscreen buttons are not responding.  some voice is telling me to double click on the apps and then telling me what the app is!  I am not great with computers and so on - can anyone help???????  thanks!

I bought an I Pad 3 2 days ago and updated to IOS 6 Software.  Was working fine until last night and now it is not responding to touchscreen but is instead a voice advising me to double click on my apps and then which explains them - like a tutorial.  Please help!

Sounds like you have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on'. Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.
If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

  • I backup to an external hdd with Time Machine, when it ran out of space it did not delete old backups, now my internal hdd says its full when before it had heaps of space. I have searched for extra files but cant find any. Can anyone help, please.

    First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    To locate large files, you can use Spotlight as described here. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
    You can also use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

    Which keyboard layout you were using? German, French ... I suppose your layout is reset to the default: US and you are unable to find the "?" or "/" ...
    Please have a look into the keyboard viewer, to see how the layout of your keyboard is actually.

  • OS9 incompatibility with upgraded G4 Gig Ethernet:Can anyone help please?

    I have upgraded a G4/450 Dual Gig Ethernet to run a 23 Cinema Display using a retail version of OS Tiger 10.4.11 and Classic 9.2.2. Previously, on the original machine I was running Panther 10.4.9 and Classic 9.2.2. The hardware upgrading uses a Sonnet Encore Dual 1.8GHz (7447 chip), and a flashed Nvidia GF6200 and a Pioneer DVR-112D. The OS Tiger upgrade procedure was to install the retail CD, run an install and archive which replaced Panther with Tiger, while retaining the original OS 9.2.2 installation intact on the same drive as the Mac OS.
    Tiger has been upgraded to 10.4.11 and is working perfectly. I am able to run my important MYOB accounts in Classic OK which is my main reason for retaining OS9. However, I am having problems with OS9 mode about which I seek help. I would like to clean out obsolete software which I cannot do from Classic mode as many apps and files are unseen by the Classic system.
    If I use the Install disk OS 9.2.2 provided with the G4, again the OS9 proceeds loading but freezes after the fourth init (Quicktime) appears. Perhaps the fifth init is the application causing the problem but I cannot identify it on the Install disk when I re-open it in Classic to read the install disk contents.
    So is it possible to run OS 9.2.2 via Tiger 10.4.11 or has the upgraded hardware (7447 chipset), created a conflict which prevents the OS 9.2 Install Disk operating properly?

    Hi, Austalopithicus -
    If I use the Install disk OS 9.2.2 provided with the G4...
    The G4 (GE) model originally came with a model-specific version of OS 9.0.4. It can also use a retail OS 9.1 or retail OS 9.2.1 Install CD.
    All OS 9.2.2 Install CDs are model-specific; there is no retail (universal install) version of OS 9.2.2. The disk you have for OS 9.2.2 is unlikely to be able to install on that model. The usual way to get OS 9.2.2 on such a machine is to get OS 9.2.1 onto it, then use the OS 9.2.2 download updater to bring that up to OS 9.2.2.
    So is it possible to run OS 9.2.2 via Tiger 10.4.11...
    Yes.
    ...has the upgraded hardware (7447 chipset), created a conflict which prevents the OS 9.2 Install Disk operating properly?
    Many folk who've installed a processor upgrade have discovered that in order to re-install OS 9 using an OS 9 Install CD requires that the original processor be reinstalled temporarily. Once OS 9 has been installed the processor upgrade can be installed again. Whether this is a contributing issue in your case is hard to tell at this point, but it might be worth trying it.
    If you need OS 9.2.2 only for use as Classic, and do not need to be able to boot the machine to it, then you can copy a working OS 9.2.2 System Folder from another machine. This would need to be a full-install System Folder, not one from a machine which is not OS 9 bootable - those Classic installs are not complete.
    This copying can be done using a simple Finder drag-and-drop copy process. Unlike OSX which needs cloning in order to successfully replicate it, OS 9 can be direct-copied and remain viable. If you do this, you might also want to copy the OS 9-specific Documents folder and Utilities folder from the source machine.

  • Stumped with a custom component. Can anyone help?

    I'm working on a component that I would like to have 3 dream levels plus limbo.
    Oh wait, sorry...I'm mixed up. Though I do feel my issue is equally contrived and at times, frustrating to wrap my head around.
    What I REALLY would like, is to make a custom component that does indeed have 3 levels, and I'm having issues with mouseover. My goal, Is to have a menu of several items, each a custom component. When a component is clicked, it "opens" into a similar menu of additional components, which in turn can be hovered over to display an image. That seems to be the easy part.
    I have created each second level item (blue), that upon mouseover displays an image (green). I have combined all of those into a single custom component, (red) and made individual states for the overall component that 1) displays ONLY the red button and 2) displays the blue components with the red component disabled.
    What I can't figure out is how to make ONLY the (red) item appear for mouseover and click when in the top state. What is happening at the moment is that as far as the browser is concerned, the entire component is the mouseover area. This makes it impossible to put multiple (red) items next to each other.
    I've tried making the (blue) and (green) components hidden and/or disabled, but it does not seem to effect the problem. I can't make those items not "accept mouseover" because the (blue) items are in turn supposed to be buttons used to display the end (green) image.
    Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problem? I hope I was able to describe the situation well enough. Like I said....it's kind of stupid and contrived.

    WELL. After typing that whole deal out, I seem to have come across the solution myself, and it's ridiculously simple, and makes me feel the same for not figuring it out right away.
    Much like everything else in Catalyst, the "accepts mouse events" can be changed for the same object in different states. So what you do is uncheck the "accepts..." box for each item while in the top state, and check it once more in the lower states. Also, the "Transparency accepts mouse" needs to be unchecked.
    Simple.

  • Something is up with my Superdrive...can anyone help

    I am struggling a bit with a fault on my Superdrive and questioning whether or not to return it under warranty. I haven't seen a similar issue on the forum and I hope someone out there might be able to help. Here's what's going on:
    I am trying to copy some photos from a DVD to my desktop. The DVD goes into the drive fine, it then shifts what appears to be a random number of images to my desktop fine with no problem. However after a first burst of happiness it goes AWOL on me. The data rate drops down to 1-2Mb per minute for a period of time with the drive speeding up and slowing down continuously before giving up entirely with the error below:
    "The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “PICT00441.MRW” can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)"
    After this point the iMac needs to be powered down before you can try again.
    It's the same for other DVDs with image files but audio and data CDs/DVDs all seem to run fine and I've had no other problems with the drive.
    So here's what I've got (all the last software updates applied).
    iMac 24" 2.93 GHz
    Snow Leopard
    The drive is:
    PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTS08:
    Firmware Revision: Q81D
    Interconnect: ATAPI
    Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)
    Cache: 2000 KB
    Reads DVD: Yes
    CD-Write: -R, -RW
    DVD-Write: -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
    Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, CD-Raw, DVD-DAO
    Media:
    Type: DVD+R
    ID: CMC MAG M01
    Blank: No
    Erasable: No
    Overwritable: No
    Appendable: Yes
    Write Speeds: 2.4x, 4x, 6x, 8x
    Any suggestions as to what might be causing this or anything I can try?
    Thanks.

    +it then shifts what appears to be a random number of images to my desktop fine with no problem.+
    If you're copying all of the files on the dvd, they're not being copied in numerical order, just being copied simultaneously, with the randomness of the result due to which copies fastest.
    The file that doesn't copy successfully, can't you just deal with it individually until you get it to copy? I don't have an .MRW file, but if you try the most simple method of dealing with it, which would be changing "MRW" to "jpg" - won't the iMac try to reformat the file to accommodate what you want by using whatever software you have installed, or by recommending what you need?
    Not an area of expertise for me, so that's all I can add, other than to advise I transferred some old files that couldn't be dealt with until I installed a minimum of Photoshop 3 - so I went with the least expense, Elements 6, and it did what I needed - modernized the files so that I could save them as jpg and add them to the others stored in iPhoto.
