I'm running OS X 10.6.8. Periodically a button pops up which looks like the "CBS eye" but vertical instead of horizontal. It allows for scrolling but I find it annoying. Is this part of the OS or is it malware?

I have to click on the eye to make it go away.

Are you talking about this?
It's just because you pressed the scrolling weel on your mouse.
Just press it again to deactivate it.
AND stay away from Mackeeper!

HT3669 This software update keeps popping up almost everyday in my iMac 27 although I keep updating. Looks like the either the update is not happening on my machine or some other problem. Anyone else know of this?

This software update keeps popping up almost everyday in my iMac 27 although I keep updating. Looks like the either the update is not happening on my machine or some other problem. Anyone else know of this? Everytime I check for updates (I have the setting to manual check), an alert pops up in Apple store with the phrase "Lexmark Printer Software Update 2.11" available for download.
Is there a way I can turn off this notification for Printer updates until it is resolved? It is pretty annoying.
Thanks

Not sure this will help yet, having just noticed it myself, but you can now get the Lexmark driver 3.0 for download here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1397
I'm going to give that a try to see if I stop getting the constant reminder for 2.11.

My interface -- buttons (back, forward, reload), firefox tab, groups, etc. -- does not look like the sample on your "firefox features" page. ("Groups" seems not to function at all.) I'm running the current firefox 4 download on Windows XP. Can you help?

Thank you for your swift reply. I don't know that this has helped me, as I've reached my level of tolerance for fooling with this annoying little problem - for today anyway. It has been going on since I "up" graded to Firefox 4. My wife is running 3.6.x on her laptop with none of this foolishness. As BLASPHEMOUS as it may sound, I've gone back to IE for the time being even though I don't like it 1000th as much as I do Firefox.
Not just to rant here, I would say that I found a way to put some buttons on the right side of the toolbar that immediately gave me permission to "back, forward, and reload", but upon closing the browser and going out for dinner with the wife, I find on return that not only are those buttons NOT still on the toolbar, but I can't find them anymore. I think they were in "add-ons" found under I believe Add-On Manager.
I did also manage to achieve back/forward functionality running Firefox in SAFE mode, but this meant no No-Script, among other things, and I've grown too fond of that particular little script to give it up.
I've rebooted, restored, and reinstalled, can't get this formerly completely reliable program to work like it always has. Before looking around on here, I was beginning to think it was my PC.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP, cor-el. I'm going to see if I can get on live chat on Monday.

I upgraded to Mavericks. I just spent an hour in Pages. Now I can't open my documents, it says I need to upgrade to a newer version. It looks like the new 5.0 when I typed but it's saying I'm running 4.3. the App store says I've already upgraded. Hel

Actually, there seems to be a bit of a bug. Encountered this with a couple of files my wife made. The files were set to "open with" the new Keynote, but clicking the file brought up this error. Right-clicking and selecting "open with..." worked correctly. I can only assume the OS was attempting to open the file with Keynote '09 despite the file property setting.
Probably requires a Launch Services DB reset (although I haven't actually tried it on my wife's MBA yet...since she's still "working on stuff". So I can't confirm if it will solve the problem).

No such option on an iPhone. Just go to Settings>wifi, tap the name (SSID) of your your home network from the list, then when prompted, enter the password.

Printing looks like the ink is running out at the bottom of the page

My HP Deskjet D4260 just developed a new problem. The printing on the bottom half of the page looks like the ink is running out, but cartridge is nearly full and the "low toner" light is not on. It looks like the printer gets lazy half way through the document, but machines don't have personalities, right? I have tried shaking the cartridge. Has anyone else had this problem?

i know i have to but they are charging me 70$ to inspect it. im just so ****** about the slight peeling when its so new and treated my computer like a baby.
I have a difficult time believing that claim. Make an appointment at an Apple Store with a Genius, Apple does not charge for the Genius service. If you are being charged by an AASP make an appointment with another AASP or contact Apple Customer Service. You can reach Customer Service by first calling AppleCare, explaining your problem and then request to speak to Customer Service.

Is anyone else having the finish rub off of the keys on their macbook? I've had mine for about 6 months and several keys look like the finish is wearing through. I went to the local genius bar today and the techs said they'd never seen this before.

Some people have seen their aluminum uni-body discoloring due to body oils. Go figure.
Normally putting anything over the keys/aluminum will hurt heat disspation, but you may need to use keyboard covers.
Or save up $500/year for new keyboards.
Neither is supposed to be a sarcastic answer. Either one could end up being the solution.
Good luck with it.

Eww, thanks for your reply, as it makes good sense, and common sense is practical when you walk into an Apple store.
I guess all the reviews and great specs of the new MB pro's made me want one...
I should probably use my current setup till it is totally outdated or simply is beyond repair.
I could ask Santa Claus for one, but by than, the 2012's will be coming out..:)
Thanks Eww for your reply, IAN....

Export PS from Indesign, open in Preview - vertical instead of horizontal - cuts off part of the page.

I tried to make my title as short as possible..
In a nut shell, I am exporting a postscript file from the Print Booklet feature in Indesign.
Why not export a straight PDF from Indesign you may be wondering? Because it is not paginated.... I don't need to print in logical order, 1,2,3,4,5... Rather the spreads with page numbers 36/1, 2/35, 34/3, etc... And the only way it seems to be able to do this (without me having to do it manually) is to print booklet and choose PostScript.
All is fine and dandy until then, but when I proceed to open the saved PS file in Preview, it opens it vertically instead of horizontally chopping off 3.5 inches from the right side of the booklet. (my book is 11 x 8.5, folds to 5.5 x 8.5)....
Anyway to remedy this?
Thanks

Typical!! - I solved the problem right after posting this.
Works fine in Photoshop when "crop to crop box" is selected in the menu options.

I just downloaded the new 4.0 an now when I click on the tab it won't even load up, it'll look like the page will show up but then it won't an the it'll look like I never even clicked on it. What is going on? Why won't firefox work?

My firefox was working perfectly before when I had the 3.6 but now it just won't load up at ALL! I've dealt with it crashing on me while I was on the internet but I've never clicked on the tab OVER an OVER again an still not even having the home page show up on my screen. Its getting really frustrating and I now really wish I'd of just left my firefox the way it was. . .can you please help me??

Please do the following. 
#Use Internet Explorer 8 or 9 and go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] Do not choose "Run" when you see the prompt, but instead choose "Save" and save the file to your desktop. 
#Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box). 
#Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
'''To reset your home page, do the following'''. 
* Go to the site you want to set as your homepage. 
* Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''. 
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu. 
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen. 
Here are a few tips to make FF4 look like the previous version in case you don't like the new design. 
* Right click a blank part of the tab bar and click "Tabs on top" to remove the checkmark. Tabs will subsequently reappear below the search bar. 
* Repeat the same steps, but click the top one called "Menu bar". This will reinstate the text links at the top. 
* To rearrange the layout, repeat the same steps again and choose "Customize". A panel will open and while that remains onscreen, you can move elements like toolbars, buttons etc around and place them anywhere you wish. You can also drag anything you don't like into that panel and add anything you want by dragging it out of there. 
* To replace the status bar at the foot of the page, install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/

PSE editor pictures do not look like the origianls

The pictures on my PSE editor do not look like the orginals and most have a redish cast. I am having a hard time editing as I am not sure what the actual colors are that I am adjusting.
It is near imposible to work on people, i.e. complexion colors, etc.
Is there a setting I am missing in the basic editor?
Any help will be appreciated.

Hello Donburl,
The red color cast you are seeing is created by your color management settings, as suggested by Bshowell. However, the settings in Photoshop Elements under Edit>Color Settings are only part of the story. There are also system level color management settings, the main one we would be concerned with would be the monitor profile. This profile is a description of the color output of your device and is used to compensate for a known difference between the input and the output. However, you are not seeing a similar red cast in other applications because they are not color managed (meaning, they ignore the color management settings of your system). Most likely the problem is you are using the incorrect color profile for your monitor and it is shifting your colors.
A monitor profile is not necessary unless you a very concerned with absolute accuracy in your prints because it is the only way you can ensure the colors on your screen are accurate. But that requires a hardware calibration device.
You should probably just change or remove your current monitor profile. How to do so depends on your OS:
Windows XP: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/icm_change_ color_profile_monitor.mspx?mfr=true
Win Vista/7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-color-management-settings

I am having problem with me Iphone4, looks like the mic of my phone is not working. no one can hear me if I make a call to them

Can any one please help me I am having problem with me Iphone4, looks like the mic of my phone is not working. no one can hear me if I make a call to them. I have tried all restoring options but no use. please help me

The mic on my iPhone4 has just quit also. Similar symptoms to yours in that people I'm talking to hear only static or my voice very faintly. The voice/memo recorder also only really records static.
It happened suddenly and seemed to get better after a day or two but then went completely after another day.
I'm returning it to Vodafone New Zealand shortly but will have to wait 5-10 days for a replacement. There are NO Apple accredited means to speed this procedure up in NZ.
We don't even have a single physical Apple Store where you could walk in and talk to a Genius.
