HT6337 HandOff feature does NOT work

HandOff feature does NOT work on my iPhone6 and iPad Air.
I have the latest updates (iOS 8.1) installed and my MBP is on Yosemite 10.10...
I have my iPad Air, iPhone6, and MBP on the same network.
And, I have bluetooth enabled.
Yet, I don't see the handOff icon appear on any of my mobile devices...
Am I missing something??
Does setting a password on all my devices affect this feature?

Hello LoreZyra,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To get Handoff working between your devices, please take a look at the article below for settings needed to be configured on your devices.
Check your settings
Check the following settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:

Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.
Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps and make sure Handoff is on.
Go to Settings > Phone. If you seeWi-Fi Calling, turn it off.

Go to the Bluetooth icon at the top of your screen and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
In System Preferences > General, select “Allow Handoff between this Mac and your iCloud devices.” If you don't see this setting, your Mac may not support Handoff.
Open the FaceTime app, go to FaceTime > Preferences and turn on “iPhone Cellular Calls.”
Go to System Preferences, and sign out and then sign in again to your iCloud account.

Using Acrobat Pro X on windows 7. The replace pages feature does not work. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix?

Using Acrobat Pro X on windows 7. The replace pages feature does not work. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix?

Hi Todd,
I haven't heard other reports of this (though there was an issue quite some time ago where deleting pages on this combination of Acrobat/OS was challenging).
Can you please tell me what happens when you try to replace pages? Do you get an error message? Are you able to manipulate pages otherwise (delete, extract, and so on)? Is this issue unique to one file, or does it happen with all PDF files?
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

Macbook Pro Pinch/Zoom feature does not work with Firefox 6

Can someone please tell me how to fix this major problem?
I can not get the Pinch/Zoom feature on the track pad to work on my Macbook Pro. I am running OS 10.6.8.
I have seen this below in other posts, and have tried it, but it STILL does not work !!!!
'''''Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4.
'''You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
'''browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce<br>
'''browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset<br>'''
'''browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge<br>'''
'''browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset<br>''''''
'''To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.'''
'''If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.'''''''''''
Please someone help me - this is a great feature and its really pissing me off that I can't use it.
HELP !!!

I'VE TRIED THIS:
browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
I'VE TRIED ALL OF THE ABOVE NUMEROUS TIMES AND IT DOES NOT WORK ON MACBOOK PRO AND FIREFOX 6.
CAN ANYBODY HELP? THANKS ♥

New Lightroom 4 mail feature does not work with Hotmail

Hi,
I have tested the new mail feature today. Unfortunatelly, it does not work well with my hotmail account.
The mail is send by lightroom and received in my hotmail mailbox, but the photo is not visible. The tekst in the messages is readable, but instead of the downloaded photoI only see a red cross.
Anyone an idea what the reason is ?
thanks
Rudy

Hi Stone Pan,
Thanks for answering.
I do not see any error message and the received mail contains a correct text message, only the picture is not visible in the mail. I tried to send a Photo with the email preset on small and normal but without success.
Kind regards,
Rudy
Edit :
I have tried to send a photo to the hotmail email adress of a friend and it works, text and photo are visible. Conclusion is that the reason for not showing the photo is not a Lightroom 4 problem. The reason should be something on my own computer, any suggestions are welcome.

Full screen auto-hide feature does not work with Adobe Acrobat Reader add-on 11.0.0.379 in Firefox 17.01.

"Full screen" menu item and its keyboard short cut F11 stop working with Acrobat Reader. The Firefox top edge border does not hide once you have moved around in the Acrobat document. Therefore it is not possible to display PDF documents in a true full screen mode within Firefox. The auto-hide full screen mode works nicely with other Firefox windows, so apparently the Acrobat Reader add-on breaks the feature. Windows 7 64-bit.

From the JS API Reference of the print method:
Non-interactive printing can only be executed during batch, console, and menu
events.
Outside of batch, console, and menu events, the values of bUI and of interactive are ignored
and a print dialog box will always be presented.

Officejet Pro L7590 Scan feature does not work after power failure!

Hello guys,
I have an L7590 set up as a wired network printer through a netgear router. I am running Windows Xp. I installed the printer and everithing was working fine, but whenever there is a power outage the printer scanner does not see the computer. I am able to print from the computer but the twain feature is the only thing affected. I checked the router "Attached devices" and the printer is listed. The only way that I have being able to repair the problem is doing a complete uninstall and reinstalling the printer software again. Does anybody knows why this happpens or how to fix it? thanks a lot.

I am having a very similar problem. Everything will be working fine, and then one day the scan function will not work. It will print fine but it wont scan. It locks up my computer and then I have to reinstall. Now it has happened and I cant get it to work even after a reinstall. Printer works fine, but scanning wont work. I am able to ping the printer and nothing has changed on my computer. I am lost with this one. I hope someone is able to answer this.

Mac Mail "bounce" feature does NOT work

Noticed that the "bounce" mail feature of Mac mail will not work. Did a search and found that it isn't working anymore for anyone. Also found several posts here on Apple Discussions, that "bounce mail" is not working, and all of the questions asking why it isn't working, are archived and no answers are allowed. The bounce mail feature was a great tool to reject and send back an email from someone that you didn't want email from. That unwanted sender would get the message that it was an invalid email address, and problem solved. We should absolutely have the right to reject an email from an unwanted sender by blocking reception from their email address. It is not acceptable that we should have to receive emails from a specific sender we are trying to block. Spam coming from faked addresses is bad enough, but when you know a specific unwanted sender's address, we need to be able to bounce and reject their emails! Fixing the Mac Mail bounce feature should be a high priority.

Making a rule to simply move emails from an unwanted sender (with a real email address) to the trash, is no solution at all. The whole point is to Reject that person's email by bouncing it back to them, with the intention of showing them they have NOT reached a valid email address. The whole point is to STOP their behavior, not accept it. Your suggestion, that I have to allow the unwanted email to come in, for me to have to deal with it, trashing it or otherwise, sounds like the attitude of the spammers.
Let's not confuse the point here, Apple put the "bounce mail" feature in Mac mail for a reason, and I just want it to work again.
Bouncing email is not unique to Apple's Mail. There is a RFC specifying how bouncing should be handled. Thomas already explained why bouncing email is not a good idea. Here is the reason quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeliveryreport.
"Today, however, most email is spam, which usually utilizes forged Return-Paths. It is then often impossible for the MTA to inform the originator, and sending a bounce to the forged Return-Path would hit an innocent third party. In addition, there are specific reasons why it is preferable to silently drop a message rather than reject it (let alone bounce it):
* Heuristically filtered spam. Spam filters are not perfect. Rejecting spam based on content filtering implies giving to spammers a test environment where they can try several alternatives until they find a content that passes the filter.
* Viruses and worms. Most times these are sent automatically from an infected machine. Since a bounce may contain a copy of the worm itself, it may contribute to its diffusion."
So using bounce is not a good idea, IMHO.

Do not disturb feature does not work since 1st JAN 2013

Following settings are done
1. Do Not Disturb is Enabled (ON) and hence a moon icon is visible in Status Bar.
2. In Notification, Sort App: By Time is selected.
3. Scheduled is Enabled and time range is set between 10pm to 7am.
4. Allow Calls from: Favorites is selected.
5. Repeated calls is turned ON.
With the above settings, the features was working fine till 31 DEC 2012. 1st Jan 2013, morning 11am I saw, the moon icon was displayed in the status bar. I checked the settings of Do not disturb, there was no change in settings.
Please suggest what's gone wrong. Why this is not working.
Thanks.

AE CC 13.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.9.5 - file collecting feature does not work anymore

hi, I am experiencing issues with the file collecting feature out of AE CC 13.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.9.5. I have the same kind of problems on my MacBook Pro Retina 15'' (2014) with 1TB SSD and 16 GB Ram and on my iMac (mid 2011 3,4 GHz Intel Core i7 16 GB RAM). I open a project without any problem, then try to collect onto an external hard drive. AE gives me error message, it cannot find a certain file (never the same file, I tried many times). I hand collected a current project onto external HD from my MacBook Pro, went to my imac, opened the hand collected Project from external HD (again no issue while opening) then again tried to perform the collect command. again error message notifying me that a certain file is missing. This is the case with different AE projects!! The After Effects collect files command to me is a very important feature that provides backup safety. with this feature not properly working I feel insecure, I need to fix this asap.

Oh yes. My bad. It is in face the one-second mark. And it is in every
project I have tried.
The assets in the first project that I noticed this happening on (which was
also the first project I opened after upgrading to OSX 10.10.2) include:
- Solid background with a color gradient
- Alpha Track Matte
- Optical Flare
- Particular
- Null object
But this exact same problem occurs with every project I've tried to export,
regardless of what's in the project/comp

The autosave feature does not work on Pages 5.2

Since downloading the new version of Pages with Mavericks, the auto save fearure has never worked for me. After initally saving the document to iCloud, giving it a name and folder, every time I make a change I get the 'Edited' label next to the document name. I have to cmd-s of file save in order for the document to be saved, or am promted to save when I close to app. I have tried deleting and reinstalling Pages with no luck.
Is there a way to turn the feature on, Please help ?!
P.S- I am on Late 2013 Retina MBP 13", running latest software on both OS X and Pages.

I don't think either of your "indicators" actually refers to whether a document has been autosaved; they both refer to the saving of a version.
The prompt to save is a reflection of the setting in the General pane of System Preferences to ask when closing; if that is unchecked, the document will close without a dialog, but including the changes that you have made since the last version that you marked with ⌘ S.
The "Edited" label indicates that there have been changes since the last marked version. The changes may have (eventually will have) been autosaved to disk, but if you browse back through the version history, the first step will jump over those most recent edits.

The password features does not work. Open TB, and I can read my email without using the password. Why?

I use a password for security. When I click onto TB, I do not have to use my password to read my emails or it will not download. I cannot figure out how to change my password. When I tried to set the master password,
it claims to have confirmed the new one. But I have to use the old password, or I do not have to use a password at all to read my email, if it downloads. This is after I uninstalled and installed TB 24.4 three times.
Now what, any ideas?

Here is my understanding: the master password secures your saved passwords. In other works, it unlocks your password to connect to the server to send and receive mail. It doesn't prevent people who have access to your computer from opening Thunderbird and seeing what's already there.
This article has an extended discussion of many methods to try to prevent others from reading your already downloaded mail: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Protecting_the_contents_of_the_profile_-_mail
