I don't Know How to Do Something with Layers/Gradients

I have an image that I want to fade from one side to the other which I can do with a layer mask. So my Layers palette looks like this:
I would like to also make the opacity like the gradient too. So the image fades from left to right but also goes from opacity-high to opacity-low from left to right.
I just can't see how to do it!
Thanks
Martin

awsome, thank for tips.
I can't even dont know why we have that tool in photoshop

I don't know how to apply a circular background gradient

Can someone please look at step one of this tutorial and tell me what he means? Do I make a circle shape and fill that with a gradient? Or drag the gradient line tool thing across whole page? I think it's the latter but if so, how did he get a circle outline there?

They are just showing you where they are centering the gradient just drag the gradient tool set to radial from about that position and you are there

I don't know how to print wireless with my HP Photosmart C4795 printer

How do I print wireless? It says on the box it came in to just touch one button. Which Button?
I thank-you for your help in advance.
Linda

The easiest way to print wirelessly is to get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.
When you start this process, make sure the USB cable is NOT plugged into your printer. When the software asks, choose a Network (or Wireless) installation type. Plug in the USB cable only when it asks.
The one button method requires newer wireless routers and you still have to install the software, so the method above is overall more straightforward.

When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can use my ID, which is in Mail, Contacts etc. The ID I get, I can't find, so that I can delete it. What to do?

I have to delete it. How do I solve this problem, anyone?

My content was obtained through another ID, which popped up earlier. Now this one doesn't pop up, and my current ID doesn't pop up either, but another one. How do you find an ID which is not in the store, and not in Mail, contacts etc. either?
Or is it possible to write the ID yourself when you want to buy something, not only to have it popped up being unable to be changed?

Close out of the mail app, then double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
Then do a reset, no data loss. Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
Then check your email again.

Anyone still up? I just purchased from the itunes store for the first time, and don't know how to get them downloaded to my ipod.

Sigh.....really late and I want to go to sleep, but I just purchased some Itunes online for the first time, and I don't know how to download them to my ipod. I've never done it before, and it shouldn't be rocket science, but I can't find anything that tells me where to go to download my songs. It said something about check purchases, but I can't even find that screen. I connected my ipod to the computer, and now it says CONNECTED...EJECT BEFORE DISCONNECTING. My BF set up the acct when he bought my ipod as a gift, and as I bought these songs for a special weekend I have planned I can't ask him how to do it. HELP! For some reason the password I always use is not recognized for my account... and since I can't get anyone from itunes without a proper log-in I'm at the mercy of all of you more versed in tech and itunes than I. Is anyone still up that can help me out?

It should keep asking for the password, because it's trying to check for purchases... As soon as you login, it will see you have pending downloads and create the downloads section on the left below Purchases under the Store section. Then it will start the music downloads there, as they will be listed one below the other.
You could just try to check your account balance or view your account and that will trigger a password request too. You can just click on that and say that now iTunes keeps asking for the password and ask him to help you with that. Trick would be to interrupt him so that he carries on with another task after, so he doesn't notice the download. Or you carry on with email or browsing which you were "busy" with when iTunes interrupted you for the password (stupid iTunes)

Why is my macbook pro running slow. It runs slow even if only one app is open, especially if it's a browser. I don't know how to read Etrecheck, but was hoping someone who does can help me out. Would be super grateful. :-)

Hi. This is my first time posting. My Macbook Pro with Os X Mavericks has been running super slow since before I installed Mavericks so I'm pretty sure it's not the OS that has the problem. It runs slow even if only one app is open, especially if it's a browser, particulary google chrome. If mail is open...forget about it, down to a crawl. I don't know how to read Etrecheck, but was hoping someone who does can help me out. Would be super grateful. :-)
P.S. - Also, it sounds like something is loose inside my mac. How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance.

Hi!!I have some problems with the synchronization of my system, and I don´t know how I can solve this!

My system consists of differents vi´s.Some of them are used to read analogic inputs and digital inputs, using the serial port.
The values that I read, go through differents vi to be proccesed, and at the end, these values are written in a file, all the values in the same file.
My problems of synchronization are:
1. I have one vi per input, and all of them use the same serial port. How can I synchronize them to avoid serial port conflicts? (using queues??) And how can I do, to get differents number of samples/sg with every vi? I have to introduce them in differents loops?
2. The other problem is that, for example, I want to read 8 samples/ s but I only want
to write two samples every second. How can I do to avoid stoping the data flow?
Maybe, my problem is that I want to see the system like
one block, and I am ignoring that, although all the system works like a block, every part works using a different "speed". I don´t know how tools can I use to combine two ideas, working like an only system( data dependence, some vis need the data of others vi to be able to work) and working getting differents numbers of samples/s.
I have seen that there are synchronization vis. I am going to glance at them, maybe I find something interesting but I amsure that your help will be very useful?
Thanks in advanced!!

I think you are pretty much on the right track with Queues. I have implemented a very similar system myself using queues. I have even different systems connected to the serial interface, but I can synchronise them all easily using the following method:
1) Make a VI for opening the serial port and reading the data. The data (parsed to extract the numbers required) are then stored in an array (Shift register). If the pre-determined time delay is reached (say 5 seconds) the values are averaged and written to a Queue with a defined data type. Save the VI as a VI template.
2) Make a VI which starts an instance of this template VI for every channel you require. You can use VI Server to set values on the new front panel before you set it's property to "running". Setting a timer value for all can help ensure that the X-Axis of your timing values (if you require) are synchronised. The clue here is to define and initiate a QUEUE per channel. (RS-232_1, RS-232_2 and so on). The QUEUE name needs to be passed to the VI Template before running so that each VI running in the background has an individual link to the main program.
The second part of this VI simply uses an array of QUEUES, polling them one after another with a timeout of, say 5 ms. If data is found, append accordingly to an XY-Graph.
I also add in some "Auto termination" in the VI template (MAx number of values allowed in the QUEUE for example) to allow for the background processes to find out if the front-VI is still running or not. There are many different ways to do this, shoose the best for your application.
With this approach, it's not even important what instrument is connected as long as data is written in a specified format into a known QUEUE. I have also developed systems where I can transparently (almost) drop in VI Templates for instruments with similar functionality (output data) from different suppliers.
I would post an example, but the time it would take me to clean it up is too large. Sorry. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask further questions.

I've got OSX/Genieo.A virus on my mac and don't know how to get rid of it and why I have it

I've got OSX/Genieo.A virus on my mac and don't know how to get rid of it and w I have it

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You installed the "Genieo" malware. The product is a fraud, and the developer knowingly distributes an uninstaller that doesn't work. I suggest the procedure below to disable Genieo. This procedure may leave a few small files behind, but it will permanently deactivate the malware (as long as you never reinstall it.)
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.
If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder should open with an item named "GenieoExtra.framework" selected. Move that item to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password.
Move each of these items to the Trash in the same way:
/Applications/Genieo.app
/Applications/Reset Search.app
/Applications/Uninstall Genieo.app
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
/usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib
/usr/lib/libgenkitsa.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib
~/Library/Application Support/com.genieoinnovation.Installer
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.download.plist
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those listed above, move them as well. Some of these items will be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
Restart and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including ones called "Genieo" or "Omnibar," and any that have the word "Spigot" or "InstallMac" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Your web browser(s) should now be working, and you should be able to reset the home page and search engine. If not, stop here and post your results.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install this trojan. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad has a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If youever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
Finally, be forewarned that when Genieo is mentioned on this site, the attacker sometimes shows up under the name "Genieo support." He will tell you to run a fake "uninstaller." As he intends, the uninstaller does not completely remove the malware, and is in fact malware itself.

I don't know who "sailsalot" is, but it's not me. I am gags76. I keep getting responses from you about an iphone. I have an ipad and have gotten help from you before. I once used "sailsalot" as a nickame on Skype. I don't know how this happened.

I have a new ipad and have used the community to answer questions for myself. Your help has been great! I don't know how you got my sailsalot name from my Skype account but I signed in with you as "gags76" and got help with my new ipad. I discovered I used a different Apple id and password on my ipad from my computer (imac) and changed that. My e-mail is **********. Could you email me if there is something I should do at my end. I have to use itunes to sync with my ipad so I have been going back and forth between the two. Should I sign in with my proper Apple id on my ipad?

My iPad calendar has stopped syncing to my iPhone calendar. I didn't change any settings. I have now switched off the iCloud calendar on my iPhone but don't know how to get it back.

I added items to my iPad calendar yesterday but they wouldn't copy into the calendar on my IPhone. I switched both devices off and on again but to no avail. The calendars were all ticked the same. I have now deleted the iCloud calendar from the iPhone but don't know how to get it back.
My Errands app is also not syncing. If I mark something as Done on the iPad, it's not removing them on the iPhone version.

Try the other USB port. If it still doesn't show up in Disk Utility then there may be something wrong with your Mac. Try something else in each USB port and see if it is seen. If the other thing, like a USB thumb drive, does show up in disk utiltiy then the USB ports are fine.
Power down the system and restart with the drive connected, go to DU and see it it is seen.
