I know this is a dumb question but...

Somehow my spouse has got some kind of Help window open. It explains what's on the screen, isolating various texxt or function boxes. It's a black rectangular box that can be dragged and resized. I've minimized it but would like to get rid of it. Anyone know what this is?

Turn off VoiceOver in the Universal Access or Accessibility pane of System Preferences.

  • This maybe a dumb question but...If I buy Aperture are the updates already installed into the purchased version or do I need to update them?

    This maybe a dumb question but...If I buy Aperture are the updates already installed into the purchased version or do I need to update them after the prograam is installed?

    Should come updated from the Mac App Store. Obviously, it's tough to keep things up to date when they are sitting in a box on a store shelf.

  • TS1424 Hello:  Please don't think this is a dumb question, but I selected a free trial of a magazine and now I'm being charged and don't know how to stop it.

    How do I cancel a free trial of a magazine?  Also, I was charged for something that I thought was free but isn't.

    There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
    For the item that you thought was free, have you made any in-app purchases within it and/or did you add or change your credit card details when downloading it (could it be a temporary store holding charge ?). If you think that you've been charged when you shouldn't have been then you can contact iTunes support here : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption.

  • I know this is a common question - but is there a way to connect a USB pen drive to the iPad? (See details)

    Basically, I just bought a Nexus 7 after growing impatient waiting for the iPad mini.  But the Nexus has a fault, and I'm taking it back next week.  I'm wondering whether to get my money back, or just get another - because it's a pretty good device!
    My major big thing about it, is that I can plug a USB pen drive into it with a OTG cable and either just stream pictures, documents or movies - or save them to the Nexus for viewing without a dangly wire to annoy me.  It's great!  However, being an Apple fan - an iPad mini (if it comes out!) would be simpler, because it would sync to iCloud etc.  whereas obviously my Nexus 7 doesn't do this at all.  The only iCloud factor I can access is my mail.  Which isn't a problem, just a prefference.
    So, with current iPads - is there a way, without jailbraking the device, to say stream movies to the device through a USB pen drive/external HDD, and save them to the iPad?
    I've seen ways on YouTube but thought it was best to ask here.
    If this was possible, I'd swap the Nexus for the iPad mini straight away - the Nexus 7 is fantastic!  No problem with it, if it wasn't for iCloud, I'd keep that.
    Oh, and as a closing question on the iPad mini/Apple Maps - the Nexus 7 lets you download offline maps, and also you have a GPS which is used even when not on wifi - do you think this will be likely on an iPad mini? I can't see it myself.
    It's a sad day for me, when I start to think Google may still have the upperhand on 7" tablets, even after the iPad mini is released.  I might even wait for the Second generation (if it exists!) - just because I for some reason never like first generation things from Apple.
    But anyway, that's a lot of questions and info!
    Thanks in advance!

    Ok, fair enough.  But since Job's death - Apple's control on leaks has been terrible.  I got the new iPhone, and I like it - but it hasn't made nearly as big as an impression as previous ones.  Because of the vast ammount of leaks.  With the iPad mini leaks, it's 99% sure to come out next week.
    Apple uses many manufacturers and it's massive also websites prefer to report on Apple whether true or false because it brings more hits.
    Amd by "others" I meant other people on iPads - not other devices/manufacturers.  It's possible to do so, I just want to know how.  I honestly don't think we'll ever be in a Post-PC era until all tablets allow us to use USB in the way computers do.
    No, USB is not the future, you missed the memo about cloud and wireless computing?

  • This is a dumb question but please help me anyway!

    I have been asked to take a class to learn to teach AP Computer Science. I was very excited to do this and was told that I didn't need prior programming knowledge to be successful. I got my first set of assignments and there are no instructions. There are just some simple programs for me to create. I went online and tried to do the best I could. I've got the first one working ok but the second one keeps giving me errors. I'm going to post what I've written below. If you have any help to offer me, please do! I am an absolute beginner so please be kind.

  • Please excuse if this is a dumb question but........

    How do I empty photos from IPhoto trash? It does not seem to be the same trash basket as my general trash bucket on the dock. But its has 2600 pics in there that I deleted from Iphoto one day when I was cleaning up. Now, are these photos taking up hard drive space? How do I permanently get rid of them?
    Thanks in advance

    I hadn't noticed how quick it was - that was cool. But it does help to have the question in the title though you must admit: then you don't have to open the click the link to see what it is.
    It was just a tip not meant to be a moan.

  • This is a dumb question but...

    Can anyone tell me where I can find a "bluescreen" in FCP to put at the beginning and end of my short? I'm new at this and just found out that I need "bluescreens" before submiting it.

    Perhaps if you defined the situation a little better.
    who is "they?"
    Typically a screening tape has a show the begins at 01:00:00:00 Typically there is a beep at 00:59:58:00 Before that is a slate naming the program. Before that a minute of bars and tone. At the end of the program it is customary to leave 2 minutes of black. This gives any projectionist time to either shut off the projector or switch to another projector, without the annoying snow or whatever.
    Is this what you mean?

  • My ipad mail is synced to my iMac mail account. On iPad, I can only see my inbox and sent messages. I can't see any of the folders I have created on my iMac. How do I do that? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there!

    My iPad mail is synced to my private email account, which I organise on my iMac. On iPad, I can only see inbox and sent messages folders, not any of the other folders in my email account I have created on my iMac. How do I get iPad to show my other folders? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there.

    If you select a mailbox, you should get an Edit button (easier to see in landscape mode). Clicking the button will provide you with check circles for the messages. You also get Delete and Move buttons at the bottom. Check the messages you want to move and then navigate to the mailbox you want to drop them into. I think as long as you can navigate to a mailbox you can move the messages to it.
    In the Mac Mail application and probably Outlook on the Windows side, you also setup rules to move messages to specific mailboxes. If the mailboxes are stored on the server, then you can have the sorting done on the server and they should appear that way on the iPad. If your later messages do not show up, you may need to have the iPad app pulled down more messages until they are all showing.

    Where do i find the reference number for my preorder? and yes i no this is prob a dumb question but i cant find it anywhere......

        Hi droidboy52999,
    Your email won't have the same confirmation number as it was ordered over the phone. You will need the last name used for the order, the location code (this ends in 01) and an order number (five to six digit number). Please keep us posted if you need further assistance with this.

  • This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out?

    This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out? I am using a MacBook.

    Press "Command P" and when the Print dialogue box comes up, towards the bottom there is an option allowing you to choose the text size, i.e: small, med, large.
    Hope this helps,

  • I know this is the wrong forum, but- (Mac question)

    I know this is the wrong forum, but…
    Can anyone enlighten me?
    How did a folder named just "Adobe", containing only something called "Acrobat.com.app"), end up in my root Applications folder?
    Double clicking on "Acrobat.com.app" launches an installer that wants to install something called "AIR".  What is that and what is it needed for?
    What forum should I be posting this in?
    A global search and searches in the Acrobat Macintosh forum were not helpful.
    Can I just delete that Adobe folder or ignore it?  It has identical Creation and Modified dates of January 15, 2010 17:56, which raises more questions than it answers.
    Any input will be appreciated.

    P.S. what I wrote above is about the Windows version; I assume that the Mac versions are the same.
    Maybe… kinda, sorta…  There are no ".exe" files in the Mac world. 
    I've never downloaded or installed either Acrobat.com or Adobe AIR.  It has to have been the Acrobat Reader 9.3 update for the Mac that installed that sucker on my Mac. I had certainly never seen it before.
    That, on top of the inexcusable, abominably surreptitious "Growl" installed by Adobe behind my back, strengthens my resolve not to acquire any more Adobe products, free or otherwise. 
    What in blazes are the Adobe corporate folks thinking?

  • HT4437 this may seem like a dumb question, but do you always have to have wifi on to play music using airplay through the tv

    This may seem like a dumb question, but once you have set up airplay from the ipad through the tv do you always need to have the internet on.

    It's not necessary to have an internet connection in order to AirPlay content to the Apple TV unless the content is protected. You will however need to keep your wifi network turned on.
