IBooks dictionary feature isn't working

I found a way to make the dictionary feature on iBooks work again.
Here's how....
Pick any word and click define. Nothing appears as usual.
You need to then click on "manage". Now download whichever dictionaries you want.
I downloaded the 1st two, when the download(s) is/are finished you should then
click on the back arrow until I was back at my book.
It should work for you now. You might also close and reopen the iBooks app if necessary.

HT5595 Parallax feature isn't working for me. Help?

I have an iPhone 4 that I updated to iOS7. It's supposed to have the parallax feature and it isn't working for me. Games that use motion and tilting the screen still work, so why no parallax effect on my phone?
It doesn't even have a reduce motion option in my settings-general-accessibility. No option to even turn it on. What's going on?

Our EFFECT COLOUR CORRECTION COLOUR BALANCE feature doesn't work on solids. Any clues?

Hi, I'm trying to help a friend troubleshoot a light sabre effect. He has followed a series of instructions from the net, but no matter what we try the solid will not change colour using the EFFECT > COLOUR CORRECTION > COLOUR BALANCE feature on the layer.
On the linked page is the file + full instructions:
http://beyondthewallmedia.com/?q=aftereffectsproblem
Could someone more experienced with After Effects please help us out and tell us why this feature isn't working in this project?
"Using your mouse to slide the numbers, drag the 3 “Blue Balance” labels to the right, up to 100 is you wish. This should start to change your glowing white lightsabre into a blue one. Play around with it, till you have the colour you want. You can slide the “Red” and “Green” Balance labels to the left to lessen their effect too."
Would really value someone taking a look at this for us. Thanks.

I agree with Mylenium. There are some serious flaws in the instructions. With no colour in the solid, Color Balance will have no effect.
But your project is also incorrectly built, according to the instructions: you've duplicated the mask 5 times, rather than the layer.
In the precomp, make your solid blue, with just one feathered mask, duplicate the layer 3-5 times, switch all to Add transfer mode.

Drag and Drop Feature is not working

I have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro running 10.8.3 and all of a sudden the drag-and-drop feature isn't working. I was dragging photos from my job's website and adding them to a folder, but after about three photos in, it stopped working and no matter what I do it won't drop into the folder. How can I solve this?
Thanks

Can you drag anything into the folder, such as files from another folder?

AirPort Express-Website isn't working

This is maybe a bit off-topic but the feature-part of the Airport Express-Website (http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/features/) isn't working. I'm not sure, if I want to buy one and the decision doesn't become easier when you can't see the features-page.

They may have moved it and/or changed the name.
Try this one.

HT5557 The ibooks dictionary works fine for my iPhone 5, but it does not work for my iPad 2. Is this fixable?

The iBooks dictionary works fine for my iPhone 5, but it does not work for my iPad 2. Is this fixable?

I went to the Audio store to see about getting a surround sound and the salesperson asked me why I wasn't using AirPlay, he said it was better than the Bluetooth, better quality. So I do have AirPlay on my Sony and I installed the app on my iPhone 5 but they can't find eachother.......when I try looking for my iPhone on my receiver it does not show it. The Sony display works through my TV, the set up screen is there but it says no devices found. Like I said, the Bluetooth finds the iPhone and works ok, but the AirPlay does not.....looking at the manuel it says that the AirPlay will recognize my device (iPhone 5) but it does not..........

Search Function isn't Working on Specific PDFs in iBooks?

Recently, I have been having problems with the search function in iBooks. I have opened 2 large PDFs in iBooks, the primary reason being to use the search function, and 1 of the 2 PDFs is not coming up with any results for searches. File 'A' ha no problems at all with searching, but file 'B' just comes up with the message "Search Completed No matches found" Note that both PDFs came from the same (clean) website.
Everything is up-to-date on my device (iPhone 5s) iOS Version: 8.2, iBooks Version: 4.1.1. I don't know why the search on this particular PDF Isn't working, as all other PDFs I have in iBooks perform just fine with the search function.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

HT4901 Why does OS X have this poison pill? What if iCloud isn't working one day; isn't it a security feature to keep a copy on the local machine?

Why does OS X have this poison pill? What if iCloud isn't working one day; isn't it a security feature to keep a copy on the local machine?

Thank you Julian and Csound1. Please help me understand these two messages that I get when I try to sign out from iCloud:

Look Up feature is not working properly.

Look Up feature will not work if another word is selected inside the Look Up display of the first word. The only solution was to the problem is to click on the word "Dictionary" (so that you will be using the Dictionary application instead) and then you will be able to look up for the second word that was originally displayed in the Look Up display.
It's really annoying this extra step just to look up for a word. That problem did not happen before installation OS X Yosemite update. I hope they fix that problem

My auto translate feature is not working on firefox v5. When I highlight a few words and right click, the option is'nt there to translate. Why?

Ok so my auto translate feature does not seem to be working. When trying to translate text on twitter or any page I highlight the text, right click and the option to auto translate has gone. I am running firefox v5 on vista. Can anyone help me out.
thanks

Sorry that my guess about what you are using was wrong. How about telling us exactly what you installed to provide that '''auto translate''' feature in Firefox?
If you don't know, give us a list of the extensions that you ''do'' have installed so that we don't have to wildly guess or so we can do an '''''educated guess''''' as to which one isn't working.

Help! Built in features/hints not working flash cs6. Need fix ASAP

Loads of built in features are not working for me in Flash CS6. When I was using CS4 they did, now they aren't. I will give two examples. Say for example I am writing code in the actions window and I type "green_btn." in regards to the name of a button instance, what usually happens when I hit the "." immediately after "green_btn" a menu will pop up showing me every option I can pick, like green_btn.addEventListener() etc etc. There is usually a menu that comes up, but for me there is no menu. I have also created a button symbol, placed an instance of it on the stage, named the instance and tried it again (cs6 is supposed to recognize the "_btn" automatically and make the menu come up even if there is no button created, but I decided to create one just in case), and no menu pops up, still . Something is wrong here, it used to work for me when I had CS4 installed. Another example is if I am in the actions window again, and I type in a function like trace(); for example, you are supposed to be able to put your cursor infront of it, or highlight it and hit F1 and it will take you directly to the help page for that function. This does not happen as well. As I go on and on I seem to keep stumbling across all these built in features for convenience that are not working. And I know 100% that they are supposed to be, I am actually in a class right now for flash and I watch demo videos where it works perfectly. What is going on with mine? I have checked every possible preference and option, I have everything and I mean EVERYTHING up to date with the most current versions. I'm stuck, and I am getting really pissed off to be blunt, I need to fix this ASAP because it is going to affect my studies which are currently ongoing, I have deadlines to meet and I am dicking around trying to fix this. PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME! Any suggestions and solution will be greatly appreciated on my behalf. If anyone helps me fix this I'll kiss you!!!!!!!!

I increased the cache from 800 to 5000, is that sufficient?
The .fla is saved to my harddrive
still no code hinting. I also unchecked and rechecked the code hinting, and even did a reboot on my comp and still nothing.
everything is updated, EVERYTHING, to the most current version available. I updated everything possible through the "Adobe Help Manager" and also through the help menu within the programs themselves; Help->Updates. I made slight progress with the help issue, in general settings withing the "Adobe Help Manager" I changed it to display local help only. So now when I initiate help by either right clicking, and then going to "view help" in the pop-up menu, or by hitting "FN+F1" (hp laptop) it brings up the flash_reference.pdf but it does not go directly to the function selected as it's supposed to. So maybe that isn't even progress...
I watched the demo video for the course I am in, and it shows our instructor put the cursor immediately infront of trace(); (within the actions window) and go to help and it goes directly to the help section on trace, and then he also highlights trace(); and goes to view help and it does the same thing.
I am also in touch with him (its an online course) to see if he can figure out it, and I am still waiting to hear back from him, but no one seems to know. I even contacted ADOBE today and got passed on to 3 different people only to be given the toll free 800 number because no one knows how to fix it.

Try resetting your iPhone. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.

Dictionary shortcut doesn't work for me

I found out that we can look up vocabularies on Safari while pressing ControlCommandD. However, I'm unable to bring this feature out no matter how many times I pressed this shortcut.(I even pressed it for 20 sec and nothing happened.)
Yes, I have went to system preferences-keyboard shortcuts-"look up in dictionary", and it is indeed checked. I even tried to change the shortcut setting and it still didn't work.
Any ideas what's wrong and how can I get it to work? Any known programs that may cause the problem? (I have LiveDictionary installed, would this affect the shortcut key?)
(and no, I don't want to use LiveDictionary to replace the build in dictionary feature because it is only a shareware)

Thank you for the reply.
I only tried this feature on "Safari"; It is a cocoa application, no??
The thing is, it doesn't work. I do not know why. I can't figure out what is causing the problem.
system preferences-keyboard&mouse-keyboard shortcuts tab-"look up in dictionary" <-- it is checked.
So, I don't know why it wouldn't work. I moved my cursor over to the word and pressed controlcommandD for 15-20sec. I even highlighted the word, yet nothing happened.
I still need help on this...
