I am running OS 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.  Option-Command-Escape now brings up Front Row.  How can this be fixed?
Also, trying to copy portions of articles from Safari (5.1) to MS Word now results in the twirling ball. Any solutions?

Try using the other Option (Alt) key. The reason I suggest that - the real command combo for Front Row is Command-Escape; yet yours was being activated when you pressed Command-Option-Escape. That would indicate that Finder was not responding to the inclusion of Option in the key combo. The simplest explanation for that would be that the Option key you are using is not working for some reason.
One other 'simple' possibility - just to make sure (in case you are using a non-Apple keyboard), Option is the key adjacent to each Command key.

  • I have an iPhone 4 still running 6.1.3 software.  A few days ago it stopped working through my car's USB connection.  How can this be fixed?

    I have an iPhone 4 still running 6.1.3 software.  A few days ago it stopped working through my car's USB connection (I have a 2010 Honda Civic Hybrid).  I can no longer control my music through my car's stereo system.  I am unable to choose what song, album, playlist, etc. to be played and cannot skip songs.  When I try to skip, it reverts back to the first song.  When I choose what to be played directly on my phone, it can only be played for about 30 seconds through my car's stereo system before it stops and displays the message "Unsupported Version."  How can this be fixed?  (Also, I know it is my iPhone and not my car because someone I know has the same exact car as me from 2009 and it did the same thing on theirs.)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  This problem is extremely frustrating and the alternative of trying to change music directly on my phone while driving is a risk I am not willing to consider.  Thanks!

    Alright, sorry for not having browsed this page a bit more before stating my question. I have just found some other similar topics on this problem. Please don't reply this thread unless there actually is a solution to the problem, because at current time there is not.

    uninstall pse 10 (properly using the adobe uninstaller).
    clean - Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    then try reinstalling using the adobe installation file(s).
    if you see an activation count error while trying to reinstall contact adobe support, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html
    and ask for an activation count reset.

    I turned on iTunes Match, and subscribed; but it did not load all of my library. How can this be corrected?

    iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match
    After looking through the above link, and still doesn't help then try this below:
    > iTunes Content: Downloading past purchases from App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    > Non-iTunes Content: Transfer them from a different iDevice or from USB flash drive and/or external hard drive.
    I don't use iTunes Match so I don't really know.

    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

  • My 2 TB Time Capsule's memory is full because it will not automatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zero backup of my two computers now.  How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and saves the new?

    My 2 TB Time Capsule’s memory is full because it will notautomatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zerobackup of my two computers now. How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and savesthe new?
    Neither my local computer consultant nor I have been ableto change any of the settings in Time Machine to correct this problem.  Working with the choices in the TimeMachine, there does not appear that there is any way to change the frequency ofthe backups either, so, after a year has elapsed, the time capsule is full, andmy only choice appears to be to erase all the current data on the Time Capsuleand start over, something that I do not want to at all let alone repeat on anannual basis.  My questions are:
    What can be done to have my Time Capsule delete old filesas it is supposed to do, so it has memory available to allow my computers toback up? 
    Is this a software problem that can be fixed online or isdoes this require a mechanical fix of defective hardware?

    How much data is being backed-up from each Mac?  (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
    Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
    Most likely, there just isn't room.  Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't.  Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).

    Everyone who logs into Facebook on my Firefox has this problem however if we use Internet Explorer - facebook looks normal.

    If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues like you described.

    You need to fresh install 10.6, programs fresh form original sources and return only vetted files (no TM migrations) from a regular storage drive
    But this when erasing the drive use the Security Option: Zero All Data before installing 10.6
    What has happened your data got corrupted and it's corrupted on the TM drive too.
    So the Zero will map off bad sectors on your drive, the 10.6 install will be fresh, the programs will be fresh and only files will be returned, you'll find out in short order which ones they are.

    That is usually caused by a missing unpack directive (&lt;em:unpack&gt;true&lt;/em:unpack&gt;) in the file install.rdf of that extension.
