HT2506 My "preview" screen is locked.  HELP

My "preview" screen is locked.  Says locked at the top where the document name is.  The arrow turns into a cross and I cannot click onto anything even the toolbar.  I also cannot see any other screen  just the locked one.  How do I turn off this locked screen?

Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • Possible bug: After using page setup in print preview it clears the preview screen and locks up the window (no visible widgets). I have to close the window from the title bar and start the print over.

    On any page, select "Print->Print Preview". Once in the preview window, use the menu to select "Print->Page Setup". In the setup dialog box, click on the "Margins & Header/Footer". Modify some headers and footers. Then click on OK.
    The preview window will either be cleared or become unresponsive. The only way to proceed is to close the preview window using the Windows close button in the top right hand corner. I must then start my printing over.
    I found that I can work around this by first changing the page setup BEFORE going to print preview. However, this looks like a bug and it should be investigated and fixed.

    Both printers? Or just the HP Photosmart C3100 series printer?

  • JPEGs locked in preview screen

    I am transferring files from my PC to MacBook Pro using a seagate hard drive.  All my JPEGs are marked as locked in the preview screen.  ie the file name becomes IMG xxx - Locked, with a drop down arrow next to it which can then unlock the file.  When I `get info', the locked box is not checked and the file is read and write.  I notice that JPEGs I transferred using a USB thumb drive also show as locked.  Are JPEGs supposed to be locked?
    My plan is to use iphoto for photo storage/organising and then periodically export to an external hard drive as required.  Is this hard drive suitable for storing mac files?
    Am new to Mac so any help would be appreciated.  Would like to get my process correct now so that I dont have problems in thw future.
    Thanks

  • ****PLEASE HELP ME SOMEONE**** PLEASE - Re: ON SCREEN CAPS LOCK INDICATOR

    can someone please help me before i pull all of my hair out.
    i have windows vista - 64 bit - the HP IQ500 touchsmart with a wireless keyboard.
    in the systray the num caps and scroll lock appears as little blue boxes (when on).
    everynow and again they simply disapper.
    i researced how to activate them again but cant remember how to do it.
    there is a way without having to mess with the registry and without downloading any program
    i just cant remember how. i know wherever it is...you ultimately get 3 boxes that you can check in order to turn the options back on.
    i am not talking about toggling, or sound, or mscofig and then boot.
    does anyone know the steps to turn the caps scroll and num lock indicator in teh sys tray back on
    oh, and right clicking on the toolbar and going to the notificiation area is not what i am referring to either.
    I checked in the control panel programs and the hp on screen caps lock indicator etc program is there.
    I reinstalled it nonetheless and confirmed it is installed properly
    When I right click on the notification area I do to properties/notification area/customize
    There are two lists there
    1. Current Items and
    2. Past Items
    For some reason I see caps lock - scroll lock and num lock under the past items
    There you are also able to change the status of the items to either Hide wne active, hide or show
    All three (caps/num/scroll) are SHOW
    I click apply OK then apply
    I restart the computer and nothing. The on screen caps lock indicator is still not in the notification area/systray area
    I repeat teh steps to ensure that the three have the SHOW option chosen and they are.
    So....
    Program is installed
    Items are check for SHOW
    Restart was done
    Ohhh and also...I went to MSCONFIG and made sure that the HP Keyboard Program was selected/check mark as one of the start up programs.
    There in a run command to activiate the 3rd party program (hp onscreen indicator program)
    When you enter the run command that I cant remember...you then get this option where there are three check boxes...one next to num lock - one next to caps lock and one for scroll lock.
    Once you check/select the boxes/options you want...presto they appear in the sys tray/notification area.
    I just cant remember the run command it to save my life.
    Please....put my mind to ease...cause I am losing it!
    I just cant seem to "walk away"...must be my OCD :-(
    Thanks

    NO.
    We are all iPhone users just like you.
    Apple has no blacklist.
    You can contact your carrier and see if they offer such a service.
    You cannot block it at all.
    Sorry

  • Black Preview Screen on Movie Maker on my HP Pavilon dv7-6175us, can someone help me , thanks

    Back Preview Screen on Movie Maker on my  HP Pavilon dv7-6175us, was working before , now it is not working,  can someone help me , thanks

    @Greg57 ,
    Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forums.  So that I can provide you with the best possible assistance here I am going to need a little more information.
    So you say Movie Maker give you a black screen on play back.
    First here is a link I would like you to go to and check out.  Please post back with as much information as you can.  Do not post your serial number.
    Advice for asking the "Very Best Question"
    Other things you can post back with is.  
    1) What type of file are you trying to play back.  ( .avi, .mpg, wmv, .ogv.)  
    2) Have you used other media players that have built in codecs to play different video types.
         ( VLC media play it is free to download.  Quicktime from apple.  Windows Media player.  Realplayer.)
    3) Have you saved this file and tried to play it on other systems.  If it plays black on other computers         then you have a corrupt video file.
    Please try a few things and let me know what you tried to do to solve this issue.
    Resolve common Video Playback problems and issues on Windows 7
    Do other videos have problems on your system.  If yes you could have an issue with the notebook.  If no you are looking at a software issue or an actual issue with the file itself.  
    Hope to hear back from you soon.
    When you post back could you provide key system information as well.  What is your product number and what Version of Operating System are you running.  For example Is it Windows 7 home or pro or ultimate.  What updates or service packs have been installed.
    Here are some links for you that should help.

    You must restore it with iTunes.
    Try placing the iPod Touch into recovery mode.

    Have you tried resetting the device?
    Hold down the home and lock buttons until you see an Apple Logo, then release the buttons.
    If that doesn't work, you should check to see if you have a backup because you may have to restore your device.

    if you can not unlock your ipad, you need to plug it into itunes and do a restore.
    If it will not ben able to restore you need to put it in dfu mode (holding down power and home for 10 seconds untill the screen goes completly blank) and then itunes will say it is in 'recovery'. Try that

    Sounds like the hold switch is broken, meaning you'll need to have your iPod serviced/replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.

  • HT5085 my screen is locked,and in voice mode please help me to get it back.

    My screen is locked and in talk over mode ad i can not e into my phone please help me?

    If VoiceOver has been enabled on your device, first try to disable it by triple-clicing the home button. If that doesn't work, you can connect the device to iTunes to remove the accessibility options. Otherwise, tap on an item to select it, and the device will read it out loud. After the item has been highlighted via one tap, double tap on the same item to select it. Once into your phone, navigate to Settings > General > Accessibility to disable VoiceOver.
