I can no longer change the icon of the startup disc... What gives?
I used to be able to get info, select the icon and paste a new icon on it, but now it won't let me. This works fine/as usual with my other mounted drives. Any ideas?
thanks for your help...
Instead of using the Get Info window you can put your desired icon, as an .icns file, at root level (the window that opens when you dbl-click the volume icon), calling it ".VolumeIcon.icns" - note the leading "." which makes the file invisible in the Finder. Your custom icon will appear instantly as the startup disk's icon.

Imac G3 shows no icons on desktop including the hard drive icon Ican only open applications from the dock but then it crashes if I try to open files (for instance word documents) I can see the files are still on the hard drive and Preview will allow me to open some photos. I cannot access the Finder either and the only way to switch off the mac is to open system preferences or any other application which will then allow me to access the options to shut down or restart.
Does any one have any ideas or experience of this problem?
I've tried restoring the Hard Disk using the original installation disk (Starting up from the Disk and pressing c) but could not restore disk.You have some sort of issue with the external drive, I would use a powered USB hub first if it's not self powered.
Next I would be looking at purchasing software to direct recover your files from the 1's and 0's of the bits themselves on the external drive as it appears your directory or something is hosed.
Software that comes to mind is DataRescue $99 which you can download and test first before buying, then send the recovered files to another blank external drive.
Once you've got your files recovered, then your all set to mess around and experiment.
Try to access the files with the program version that originally created them, I'm not all that up to speed on iMovie, but I do know there are issues with using older Apple software versions with newer version altered files. -
Apple changed my Apple ID to the email address associated with my iTunes account. I now can no longer access my account because the old user name is no longer valid and has no password. I have been on the phone with tech support for hours trying to fix this. I can not update any of the apps associated with that user name.
Is this itunes on the iPad or on my computer? Thank you for the reply.

You can no longer change the password
Good day!
I have a problem on a Netweaver 2004s BI server.
When a user tries to change his password at the logon screen, the error message : "You can no longer change the password" appears.
To clarify, user types his current user id and password in the logon screen, then clicks the "New Pasword" button. Then immediately the "You can no longer change the password" appears.
This is not similar to the message that says you can only change your password once per day.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Regards
DerikAh.. that was interesting.. actually you wouldn't know about these errors which do not give u a clue.. in the right direction unless you have faced the problem. Good that the problem is resolved.
Its more quicker to actually help, if you have access to the system.
This error could have been easily sorted out by checking system log entry and audit logs or SUIM.

I am no longer able to access iphoto. When I click on the icon. The screen opens but remains dark with the spinning icon continuing indefinately. In the light panel on the left hand side there is no list of albums or the library.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Can no longer change the G/L account in AO90
Hi!
I have a problem changing the G/L account in AO90 for an account determination where I have posted the wrong account. Since I have already created assets with an account determination that includes this account, it says that I "can no longer change the value '124000' for the G/L account.
I have found some threads with info f.ex:
- AC476 in transaction OBMSG, but it require SAP entry
- reverse the posting values in transaction ABF1, but I'm not 100% sure how to reverse it...
How can I remove the asset/reverse asset values so it will be possible for me to post the correct account? I'm currently working in a dev system, so these are fictive assets that I can delete (which I cannot do as there are values on them). But i have to get this in order to transport the correct properties to the test system.
All help much appreciated!
Regards
Haakon BekkestadIts Very Simple.
To change GL Account for asset class first remove GL Account in A090 i.e.
put it as blank and save it.
Come out from AO90 transaction code and change gl account.
It will posted. -
Since purchasing my Mac Pro with retina display, I can no longer change the preferences on MP Navigator for Canon MX870. I can change them on my old Mac Pro with Lion, but not the new one. I can scan but I can't save it to a folder on my hard drive. I can only let it default to a back up date folder. Tried all sorts of things to change the preferences and folders, nothing worked. Ideas?
StephanieTo prevent your iPhone from automatically syncing when you plug it in, click on iTunes in the menu bar, then preferences, then "devices", then tick "prevent iPhones, iPad's and iPod's from syncing automatically".
Plug it in, then on the iPhone sync summary screen, click "info" along the top.
Make sure the "sync contacts" option is not ticked. as long as it's not ticked, then it won't sync with your mac's contacts but will still include them in backups.
Also, if you use iCloud, make sure that the iPhone/mac are either not signed into the same account, or that "contacts" is not turned on for both of them -
I have a 13" macbook from 2009 and for some reason can no longer change my desktop image by just clicking on an image in system prererences>I-Photo. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Your Desktop Picture settings and Dock items are stored in the files
/Users/your short user name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist and
/Users/your short user name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
in the "Preferences" folder in your user library. This looks like the system has trouble to write to these files. Check the permissions on your user library and remove the above files from your user library, then log off and on again.
Your user library is hidden in Lion and Mt. Lion. To reveal it, use the Finder's "Go" menu. Select "Go" in the Finder's main menu bar and hold down the alt/option key, until you see the "Library" in the drop-down menu. Double click it to open a Finder window, so you can browse the files inside.

How can i change the icon in the top left of a jdialog
how can i change the icon in the top left of a jdialog.
thnkx in advanceYou cannot directly. If you have a jFrame (e.g.) with your own icon you can use one of the JDialog costructors using (Component owner, ... ). Then the dialog will display the same icon.

I synced my Ipod to itunes now I can only double tap the icons on the screen, it seems that the swipeing feature has somehow been disabled, Is there a way i could fix it or get it back to normal?
Hi there,
It sounds like you may have an accessibility feature called VoiceOver enabled. Take a look at the article below for more information on how to use VoiceOver as well as how to disable it.

How can I change the icon for the bookmarks menu button
Using linux, the default icon for the bookmarks menu button is quite ugly. Is there a way to change the icon for the button with some code in userChrome.css ?
After several intents, I found a solution.
This is my userChrome.css file:
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
toolbarbutton[class="toolbarbutton-1"]#bookmarks-menu-button image[class="toolbarbutton-icon"] {
list-style-image: url("bookmark_gray.png") !important;
-moz-image-region: rect(0px, 0px, 0px, 24px) !important;}
Probably it's messy but works. -

I can't click on the icons at the top of a site. What's causing this?
I have firefox and it's having a strange problem today. When I'm on facebook, I can't click on the icons at the top. I can't click the message, friend request, notifications, home, profile icons and can't click the one that allows you to sign out. So i can't even sign out. What I mean by can't click is when I put the cursor over those icons, it doesn't change into the finger. When I left click it anyway, nothing happens. This doesn't happen in internet explorer, but I want to keep using firefox. What's causing this? I also noticed that this doesn't just happen on facebook. I've uninstalled and reinstalled firefox. I restarted the PC. It didn't help.
The Yahoo! Toolbar extension has been reported to cause this issue.

After installing the latest update to itunes, and my ipod, I can no longer sync my computer and my ipod nomatter what I do. I have tried everything I know and can read. I am beginning to think it has something to do with the password that I changed, but I tried to change it back and nothing happens. Does anybody have any suggestions. I have been working on this for three hours and I can't figure it out? Apple is no help and it was their updates that messed the whole thing up.
