I have an unnamed window which can not be closed, what can I do?

Hi!
I have a window titled as "unnamed window" which can not be closed. I am unable to get its PID. Neither Xkill utility and Xprop doesn't work. Xprop doesn't report anything when I click on it.

I know it was said in jest (Or I think it was), but even in the worst case, there is no need to reboot - just restart X.
I suspect the name "unnamed window" is not useful, as that is likely the window manager's default when it either cant get the window attributes, or when the window attributes contain a NULL string.
I am also guessing this is a tilingWM - is this awesomewm? I suspect this as I've seen this problem with some programs that crash after having mapped a window but before they have drawn anything to it. This window will remain in the WM's listing of windows, but it will not be at all functional. Often it will not even be "visible" - but if you have a tiling wm, it will take up a tile space.
I've been thinking of writing a little utility to remove such dead-windows.

As note already on the iBA forum [ AppleID for ibooks publishing ], you need two IDs. You can't use your developer ID.
If you already signed up for books with that ID, you need to talk to Apple to straighten things out.

Hello pen pang,
if your Photoshop is a part of Creative Cloud you can use "Manage your membership and payments|Creative Cloud" at
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/membership-subscription-troubleshooting- creative-cloud.html >>>
Payment & credit card >>> Help changing the credit card on your account >>> from there see what hints are listed.
On the other hand I'm sure that you can use the recommended procedure with a "normal" PS too.
If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.
If you need these explanations in another language, please use "Change" at the end/bottom of the website from above
Good luck!

If you can't find the movie you downloaded on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, check inside your Videos App

I have an iPhone 4 and tried to update to iOS6 but received an error message when trying to restore. The phone is no longer recognised on iTunes (using my Windows PC). I have reinstalled iTunes but this has not worked. What can I do??

I have followed the instructions on the apple support pages and still cannot get my phone to work. It continues to show the iTunes USB picture and is not recognised on my iTunes on the windows PC. When I connect the phone to my iMac it shows no data and says I can restore to factory setting. However if I do this will all my data be erased? How do I get my phone and data back? I have saved most of the photos that were on the phone but all my contact details and messages are stored and I really need to get them back! Would have limited memory on the phone when trying to update caused this problem?

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

I bought a used iPad 2 and it has started prompting me to sign into iCloud, however, I do not have the original owners password. How can I reset it

You can't. You may have purchased a stolen iPad. Where did you buy it? If on eBay, you can get a refund.

HT1430 I set-up my new i-pad when I received it Saturday, following the 'on pad' directions. Having switched it on for the first time since this evening, I am now asked for a 'passcode'. I now can not proceed. What can I do?

This was no help. I'm still being asked for a Passcode!

Will it not open without a passcode?
Trr using your Apple ID password.

I was using adobe sendnow until now although at this time I came to Bolivia from Belgium. I can not send a file any more and can not suscribe either What can I do to keep on sending files?

Can anybody help?? I was using the application locally for the last 7 months.

Got everything to re-install and it worked fine...for a few hours. Then I came in to find ALL of my network users deleted. Just GONE. Then found out the Open Directory was trashed and was unable to open, recover or restore from a backup. Looks like I may have a bad drive here.
I installed a new drive in the system, re-installed and so far (for a couple of hours anyway) the system seems to be working and stable.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Local laptop seller installed Windows which is not genuine.

Hi! I claimed my hard disk warranty but my local laptop seller installed Windows which is not genuine. Do hard disk warranty also comes with original windows warranty?

No that is on the guy who installed it. I would go back to him. There is no excuse for committing what may be a felony. You can get a legal copy of the Windows 7 or Windows 8 reinstall disk online and use the Key Code on the bottom of the laptop to register it. You can have him come on here and we can link him to a place to download a legal copy and how to install it.
