I am trying to fill in a PDF form online- there should be a submit button but it isn't showing. My partner has an identical Mac and can see the button when he opens the same page- what do I change in my systen system preferences to resolve this?

You and your partner might have different browsers, different versions of the same browser, or most likely a fervent version of the PDF plug-in.
See if just clicking on the Enter key sends the form in.

Hi, I need to activate my Adobe CS3 on a new computer because my old one died and I'm having difficulty. Tried the normal registration way and then logged in with my Adobe ID and can see the software and activation code already registered. How to get it on my computer registered?

If your two activation are in use you need to call Adobe. Install CS3 to to point of activation and call Adobe at that point. They have help me in cases like your My Disk crashed and I replaced it. Could not deactivate the crash activation. I done that twice over the years I've been using PS for around 20 years
To see your key you need to click on the product in your Adobe products and services page.

I have a grey screen on start up and can see the sign in page in the background. How do I resolve this issue.

After my iMac has been asleep for sometime and I wake it up there is a grey screen with a load bar running at the bottom, but I can see the sign in page in the background. It eventually goes to the sign in page but it still takes a minute or so before I can actually sign in as well the mouse and keyboard are froze during that time as well. One it unfreezes the iMac seems to work as usual. What is going on and how do I resolve?

Hello there Kenorb1,
It sounds like your computer is unresponsive and the screen is grayed out with a loading bar and is unresponsive for a bit. From what you describe it sounds like you are seeing the computer wake from Safe Sleep. Here is some more information about what that is and why it is happening:
Mac computers: Progress bar appears after waking from sleep
Safe Sleep ensures that data stored in main memory will not be lost should the computer shut down due to the battery being drained completely . Prior to your computer entering sleep, Safe Sleep automatically saves the contents of main memory—such as desktop settings, open applications, and other work in progress—to the hard drive.
There are two situations in which a computer will enter safe sleep:
In the event the battery becomes completely depleted while the computer is asleep, the computer will shut down. But when a power adapter is connected or a freshly charged battery is installed, the computer can be restarted. Press the power button as if turning the computer on and it will automatically return to the desktop state that existed prior to entering sleep. This means that applications and files will remain exactly as they were prior to the computer being put to sleep, making it easy for you to continue with your work.
With the release of the OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 supplemental update 2.0, a new feature was introduced to enter safe sleep after four hours of the computer being connected to AC power. This is an effort to comply with the European Energy Standards (ErP Lot6). This will only occur if there is no wireless or Ethernet activity and no activity from external devices such as USB storage devices.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

Hello I am really struggling with iCloud. I have changed my Apple ID but when I go into iCloud it has my old id and won't let me press it to change it and will only let me change password so I can't even delete iCloud pleas help

I Can't even delete the account as it keeps asking for the password for the account I don't have anymore! It's really frustrating!

Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID

I've paid for my Mountain Lion and can see the transaction in my itunes account, but it fails to download for the past 36 hours. Any solutions, or is the system heavily overloaded?

Can anyone help with this issue? It's hard to beleive that Apple is having such a protracted problem...

Sorry to hear that, it does seem to be stateside where the problems are (been to Vancouver, great City by the way ) Here I downloaded ML at 8pm last night with no issues. I didn't click the main banner I clicked Mountain Lion under I think it was productivity, not sure if that made any difference though tbh. Its worth the wait, runs beautifully so far on my Mid 2011 i7 iMac. If you can maybe try taking your Mac to an Apple store and see if they have better bandwidth for the download.

I cannot change my system preferences because I did the wrong thing in creating the admin profile. So, whenever I wanna change the preferences again, it says to me that you cannot do this. How do I resolve this?

Do you have an account that is a type of Administrator? If not, try this tip to restore an Administrator account.

I am trying to fill out a PDF form from an internet site, but when I go to print it, none of the content prints, only the header of the document. Help!

Instead of printing it, try saving it as a pdf from the print menu, and then printing the pdf out.

I don't know my administrator's name in order to make changes in system preferences.

I cannot make any changes in system preferences because whatever 'administrator name' I put down will not work. The password is correct. What steps should I take?

Thank you so much for your help. I apparently had the wrong Admin username somehow, and found it by typing
dscl . -read /groups/admin GroupMembership | open -ef
into Terminal. A text box popped up with the root username.

I have changed default language in the program & have set Language & region in system preferences. My Word (Mac2011) keeps on changing the default language to US english every time I check. Please help!

If you're having trouble making changes to files that are inside your home folder (represented by a house icon in the sidebar of a Finder window), or if you can't get changes to the settings of an application to stick, then please see below.
Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Trying to set up iCloud onmy iMac and the iCloud icon does not appear in System Preferences under "Internet

I am trying to set up iCloud on my iMac and the iCloud icon does not appear in system preferences under "internet & wireless". How do I proceed. I have already set it up on my iPad & iPhone.

You have to upgrade to Lion for the iCloud preferences to be available.

Padlock will not unlock when i attempt to make changes to system preferences

After recently upgrading to Mountain Lion, when i try to click the padlock to make changes in system preferences, it does not do anything. I have already repaired disk permissions, still no luck. Any suggestions??

No luck. When I click the padlock, it should popup my username and ask for my password. it doesn't even do that. the padlock just jiggles and doesn't attempt to open.

I have iCloud on my MacBook Air. Trying to set up icloud on another device- MacBook Pro. I have OSx version 10.5.8 on the Pro. The iCloud does not appear on my system preference/ Internet

How do I get the iCloud icon to appear in my System Preference/Internet & Wireless section to turn it on. Again I only have Mobile Me icon. When I check for updating of software it says there are no updates. I currently have OS X Version 10.5.8 on the MacBook Pro that needs to have iCloud.

iCloud requires OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. If you’re running 10.6.8 or earlier you will need to upgrade to either Lion higher in order to set up iCloud on your Mac. First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
Lion system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Mountain Lion requirements are shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5444.
Mavericks requirements are shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842.
If you can run Mavericks, you can purchase an upgrade from the Mac App Store. If you can only run Lion or Mountain Lion, contact the online store in your country and purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing programs by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table.

HT5953 How can I speed up the "start speaking" feature in iBooks? (System Preferences Dictation and speech does not do anything to the speech speed.) The rate is a bit to slow.

How can I speed up the "start speaking" feature in iBooks? (System Preferences Dictation and speech does not do anything to the speech speed.) The rate is a bit to slow.

Hi, I had the same problem you described, and I noticed that there are two ways of activating text to speech on iBook for Mac, with different speed results (at least on my MacBook Pro Retina display)
On your iBook you can select the text and and then click on > More> Start speaking, and you will get a certain speed, which tends to be too slow.
But you will get the speed you had selected with "Go to System Preferences>Dictation and Speech>Text to speech. In there is a slider to adjust the speaking rate." if you use the TOP MENU (next to the black apple) under Edit>Speech>Start Speaking. I also learned that under System Preferences>Dictation and Speech>Text to speech, there is an option for a shortcut which is very helpful. And you can change Key. Hope this was helpful.

Hi Pelle,
Why did you delete your profile? Also how? Did you use the profile manager or did you delete from the windows file structure?
It sounds like something during the profile delete has stopped Firefox from starting up. Please see the this article and follow the steps:
