White Balance Selector Disappears when moved across the image

Hi
I am using LR 4.4 on an iMac.
Does anyone know why the White Balance Selector tool would disappear when moved across an image?
it seems to change to a vertical line with an arror top and bottom.
The areas of the image on which it disappears seem to be consistent, in other words, it disappears on the same portion of the image eveytime.
UPDATE: Since posting the above a few minutes ago I've noticed that my cursor is behaving eractically. For example, on a different image to the one used above, in the library module using the Loupe the cursor changes from a magnifying glass to an arrow pointing to the right. It does this on the same part of the image every time.
Thank you for your help
Regards

Weird cursor problems are a FEATURE of the APPLE os.
There are complaints on the APPLE os system website since 2005.
The last time I checked there were 30 pages of discussions about this on the apple site
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion.
I don't think APPLE has a clue as to how to fix this. It is seen in many apps, photoshop most commonly, lightroom,textedit,exxcel, and others.
Pray that something happens in soon to be released 10.8.4.

Data disappears when a field is added to report

I have a report that uses two files. The first one has a field called "amount code", and the second includes that code field as well as a description of the code.
But when I link that second file to the first one, data disappears when I drag a field from the second file into the report. The first 10 fields in the report are from the first file, and they look fine. But as soon as I drag in any of the fields from the second file, all of the data in the report disappears. (This happens no matter where I drag that field to...data, page headers, etc.)
I'm pretty sure I have the files linked correctly. Can anyone tell my why this happens?
(When I use the either file by itself, things look fine.)
Thanks, Jon

Hi Raghavendra,
I think I have it figured out (or more accurately, our DBA figured it out for me).
The problem is that in the main file, the code field is only one digit long (string). But in the second file (the code description file), that code field is 8 digits long, even though only the first digit has any data (followed by 7 blanks). Therefor CR doesn't see any matches.
It looks like the solution is to truncate the field in the code description file so it's only one digit long instead of 8.
But thanks for the help...I'm clearly over my head, and very much appreciate your assistance.
Jon

Why do items disappear when moved to the desktop?

Why do items disappear when moved to the desktop?

Are you perhaps referring to dragging an item out of the Dock and onto the Desktop?
If so, they are intended to poof-disappear when you do that.
The reason - the icons shown in the Dock are a form of alias, not the real item. Any running app will have its icon shown there; and those that do appear there can be made to stick even when the program is quit. This means that there must be a mechanism to get rid of them, else there would eventually be too many. One way is to right-click or Control-click the item, then select Remove from the popup menu that appears. A more convenient way is to just drag them off of the Dock and have them disappear.
If you want to replace an item on the Dock, just drag the item to the Dock, wait for the items already there to make room for it, then drop it onto the Dock. Apps can only be placed to the left of the vertical dashed line; folders can only be placed between the dashed line and the Trash.

All iCal data disappears after 10.4.3 update

After updating to 10.4.3 all my iCal data was gone. I restored it using Backup and when I launched iCal it all appeared as normal—and then a few seconds later, poof, it all disappeared again right before my eyes. I tried making a new entry and at first it didn't seem to work, then all my iCal data reappeared for a few seconds, only to disappear again a few seconds later, leaving iCal "virgin" as if no entry had ever been made.
The current iCal version is 2.0.3. I have tried erasing preferences and starting over again to no avail. I have also repaired the disk and the permissions with no improvement.
Any suggestions anyone? This is one of the strangest OS X problems I have ever encountered.

Yes,,, how did you solve the problem specifically from all the suggestions you got?
I got a whole new powermac and used the migration assistant, but that didnt bring the information over for some reason (regarding iCal atleast, and some small unimportant pref files).
I tried faking a 'subscribe' situation, a drag and drop, emailing the ics file, manually inputting them into the new machine's folder and so on but no go. And I dont have a .mac account to try pushing them over...

My iCal data disappeared! What happened?

All of my calendar data disappeared in my iCal app. What happened? How do I get it back?!!
I changed nothing, upgraded nothing. I just turned the Mac Air on this morning and... nothing. My data seems to still be on my iPhone but I am afraid to sync for fear of losing everything on every device.
Has anyone else had this happen?

We need to know a lot more to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"

Some iCal events disappear when in week view

Hello all,
I recently had a double agenda booking. Today I found out why:
In week view some iCal events disappear... When i switch to month view, they reappear.
So, depending on the view i have open time slots. Not very reliable.
Anyone know what i can do to return to solid bookings again?
Best regards
Fred

Same problem here. I just imported everything from my old MacBook to my new one using Time Machine. My events appear in the Month view but not in the Week or Day views. So I went back to my old MacBook, created an iCal backup file, and emailed it to myself. Opened it on the new machine, restored from the backup file, and . . . same thing!
Very strange!! I need my daily events to be visible. Any help out there?

ITunes and MobileMe IDs when moving to iCloud

I obtained an iTunes account many years ago and have purchased a lot of music and video content since then. More recently I began using the mobileme service, so I now have an [email protected] e-mail address. iTunes will not let me change my iTunes e-mail address to [email protected]
I am about to move to iCloud. When registering for iCloud should I use my existing iTunes account or my existing mobileme account? Or does Apple offer a simpler solution to resolve this 'two accounts' issue.

Thanks Julian. This looks good (although would be nice if Apple allowed me to solve this issue rather than work around it!). This article offers some additional advice: http://www.macworld.com/article/163013/2011/10/all_about_icloud_common_signup_sc enarios.html#lsrc.nl_mwweek_h_crawl

My mouse disappears when moved over any text box?

After downloading Mozilla Firefox, my mouse no longer appears when moved over text boxes, such as the box I am typing in now. Any ideas? Thanks.

when your moving your arrow cursor over textbox its changes to Text cursor
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Recovery of Calendar data lost when Merging with iCloud

I Was wondering if anyone could help.
Basically, I have somehow managed to wipe ALL the entries from my partners iPhone 5c calendar when turning calendars on for iCloud. When prompted I pressed the merge calendars button and then everything disappeared. I turned iCloud calendars off again and the calendar which was called something like "on my iphone" has disappeared.
I downloaded some 3rd party software which scanned the phone and found the calendar entries, but to restore them would cost my £55 for the full version of the software. Is there a way to access this data and restore it without spending this sort of money?
Just to complicate matters, a backup of her phone hasn't been done since the start of june, roughly 7 weeks ago. I'm concerned that if I restore from that backup she'll lose contacts she's added since there along with saves and other updates she's made to apps on her phone, which will put me in even more trouble than I'm in already. I'm guessing the phone hasn't been synced with iTunes since this backup was made, although I have transferred recent purchases.
So, is there a way to recover the calendar data that has disappeared without losing anything else?
Thanks for for your help

Hi
No I hadn't created a Calendar Archive before this mishap (I will now), and I thought it would be covered by the Time Machine Backup. I was activating my iCloud drive for the first time and I think that it was doing this that somehow lost the calendar data. Previously the Calendar data was on the Mac hard drive.
I have now managed to get the old calendar back, but I don't quite know how.
The links to calendar backup in your reply led me to tinker more with the Time Machine, and the data on the My Passport drive directly. I could not see the any calendar directly in Finder or Time Machine, but a Finder search on My Passport's latest backup showed various calendar stuff, including .ics files, in [users/myname/library] which were hidden.
I either restored one of these, or imported one via Calendar. I tried both, but neither seemed to work at the time. However, I reopened Calendar a some time later and found that the “lost” calendar had returned.
I couldn't find a way of revealing hidden files in the preferences, and I think that the library containing the Calendar files must be hidden because I could only see them via “search”.
Anyway, all's well that ends well, but I wish that I really knew how I fixed it. Thanks for your help.

HT4898 Why have Apple turned off keychain sync when moving to iCloud?

This was one of the most useful feature I found as I didn't have to remember my passwords when moving from one Apple device to another. I think its pretty daft that this has been dropped! So what to do now ? Any advice?

No one knows here, since we're just users - and no one every reported why Apple did this. There must have been a good reason though. But we'll never know.

TS3999 lost half of my calendar when moving to icloud

Whole gallery disappear when moving it from another folder

Hope i can get some clues here of something i find more than strange.
I was working on Photoshop and moving some images within Bridge and i noticed my Iphoto Library was inside another subfolder, to clarify i keep it in an external drive. So i grab it (the libray) and drag it outside the other folder when i noticed i was actually copying the whole library outside.
I stop the action and i moved the library instead, then i have a message saying that it was a folder already named 'Iphoto Library' in that location (the half copy one) and if i want to replace it, i press ok to replace, then its copying into new location...a window pops up and reads -error action cannot be continue- and the my whole library disappear. No original one nor even the copy bit, gone..
I search through with every keywords, Trash, even making a search in finder for JPEG bigger than 100kb..
I am talking here about over 20,000 pictures, so it is really strange if i'm not bump even into one image at all, and how a folder can just delete itself, specially a big one like that.
It makes no sense.
Any help?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Here's a tip: choose between iPhoto and Bridge. Using Bridg on photos managed by iPhoto makes it very easy to damage the iPhoto Library. So, one of the other is my first advice.
So i grab it (the libray) and drag it outside the other folder when i noticed i was actually copying the whole library outside.
When you move an item on the same volume then it just moves. When you move an item between volumes then it gets copied. This sounds like you've moved your Library from one volume to another.
Were you doing these moves with Bridge or the Finder?
o it is really strange if i'm not bump even into one image at all, and how a folder can just delete itself, specially a big one like that.
It didn't delete itself, you deleted it, I'm afraid. It sounds like you made a partial copy then copied the partial copy over the original.
Check out a file recovery software such as File Salvage

Images "Disappear" When Moving a Project But Really They'r e Just Invisible

Last night I imported 442 images into a new project. I rated them, and edited about 40-50. This morning I moved the project within the same library. When I did so, all the images disappeared, sort of. The project appeared empty. I let it sit a couple of minutes, and undid the move to no effect.
I checked to see if a filter was blocking the images but it was not the problem. I checked the Project properties and it showed the images were all there (plus, I use referenced files and I hadn't deleted the CF card so worst case scenario I had all my originals). Also, when I displayed all the projects in a browser view window, the project showed up and I could sweep through all the thumbnails in the project browser. But again, if I selected the project and tried to see the images in either the browser, viewer, or split view, nothing showed up. No thumbnails, no file names, no empty thumbnails, nothing. The photos were sort of invisible.
I "solved" the issue by moving an image - any image - from another project into the problem project. Suddenly that photo and all the other images, were visible. Removing the random image did not recreate the problem.
Since I no longer have the problem I'm posting for 2 reasons: (1) to publish the problem and my fix in case anybody gets the same problem, and (2) to see if anybody knows what caused this and if there is a more direct fix than my weird indirect fix. Thanks.

I have had the same thing happen consistently. I import images into a default project. Then when I move the project into an organizational folder... all the images disappear. After a couple of panics, I have now realized that if I stay calm, close Aperture, then open it again, the pictures are all present. Quite a pain in the butt, but at least there is a work around. Albeit a bit scary .
Best,
Jim

Mail Attachments Disappear when Moved

i noticed that when i create a message and add attachments, i am unable to move them once they are in the message body.
for instance, if i attach a PDF file to a message, and i drag the file icon to a different location in the message, it disappears.
anyone else experience this?
g

It's generally a bad idea to move large numbers of messages at once. Mail is known to barf on occasion when you do this. always copy not move. if the copy is successful then you can delete the originals.
try rebuilding mail index. quit Mail and delete the file homedirectory/library/mail/envelope index. start mail and let it import (that means reindex). see if those messages show up. you can also make a smart mailbox to show messages with received date in December 2008.
