ICal Window Popping into view...

Has anyone experienced this issue: (on a MacBook Pro 15')
You open up your iCal window, look at your calendars, then drag the window off to one side or the other of your screen (to temporarily get it out of the way, but still see it on the desktop) and then as you start to move your mouse to another application, the iCal window pops fully back into the main view of the screen. It will not stay off to the side, it keeps wanting to be fully within the main screen. Other applications are not exhibiting this behavior (at least not that have been noticed yet).

Is this something that only happens on a MacBook Pro? I have also seen this happen but only on MacBook Pro machines. I also have a MacBook and an iMac G5 that behave perfectly. Wondering if anyone has found anymore insight into this small but annoying problem.

  • Is there a way to view just one open Finder window (without any other Finder or other application windows coming into view) from a Desktop hot corner in Yosemite?

    I just upgraded to Yosemite from Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro. Previously, I could view just one open Finder window by viewing the Desktop via a hot corner and then selecting Finder from the Dock. This would pull only the top Finder winder into view, without showing any other open Finder windows, and most importantly, any other open application windows. I could then easily drag files/folder from my Desktop into the Finder window (which I do A LOT). Since upgrading to Yosemite, whenever I use the Desktop hot corner and select Finder from the Dock, it pulls every open application and Finder window back into view, putting Finder in front.
    Is there any way to view just one already open Finder window (or all Finder windows for that matter) without seeing all other open applications, without having to Hide the other applications or using Spaces?

    Yes I've created an Automator Application that does the job, but the "watch me do" function that does the Mail Merge is a rather Clunkey work around, as the mouse moves all over the place, thats the part i want to remove and replace with a script, or work out a different way around it that avoids the "watch me do" function.
    Is this Possible? or where/who is there i can ask to write me a script, im not a novice to scripting, but i am a novice to Applescript.

  • How do I create calendar alerts (popping into view)?

    How do I create alerts that pop into view to tell me an upcoming calendar event will be starting in, say, 15 minutes?

    When creating a calendar event, there is an alert option - with a first and a second alert if you want two. You can set the first alert for an hour before and the second alert at 15 minutes before, or have a single alert at 15 minutes before. There will be the calendar alert sound and a pop-up for the event.

  • Window that slides into view

    Hi all, I'm looking to add a little bit of Swing eye-candy.
    I have a little pop-up window that informs the user that their file has saved after they hit "save" or Ctr-S. I need it to be noticeable (so that they are assured that their file did indeed save), yet out of the way and not requiring any action on their part (no "Ok" button).
    Currently I have a little JWindow that appears at the bottom of the frame when they save, and disappears after two seconds. However, I'm looking to make the application look a little polished, so I wanted something a little fancier.
    Does anyone know of a way to get a JWindow (or any other kind of internal, non-modal frame or dialog) to slide in from the edge of a parent frame? I'd want it to look like it was being pushed in, so the whole thing would slide into view in one piece (i.e. not stretching). Or a similar kind of eye-candy that would be simple to implement (maybe fade-in fade-out)?
    Any help greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Hey that works great! Using null layout makes a lot of sense.
    I couldn't get it to be both fast and smooth -- changing the delay/repeat time to 0 doesn't make it significantly faster, so instead I had to increase the amount by which it moves each time, so it's less smooth. It still looks pretty good, though.
    For anyone else who's looking for this, I'm posting an excerpt of my code below, which slides the window up from the bottom right corner and then back down again a couple seconds later. I haven't made it into an SSCE, since that's above.
    Thanks again!
    final JWindow savedWindow = new JWindow();
    JLabel savedLabel = new JLabel("File saved");
    savedLabel.setFont(saveStateLabel.getFont().deriveFont(Font.BOLD));
    String fileName = currentAuthoredFile.getAbsolutePath();
                                       // .... bunch of layout omitted
    savedWindow.add(savedPanel);
    savedWindow.pack();
    final int desiredHeight = savedWindow.getHeight();
    savedWindow.getContentPane().setLayout(null);
    savedWindow.setSize(savedWindow.getWidth(), 0);
    bottomCorner = new Point(mainFrame.getLocationOnScreen().x + mainFrame.getWidth(),
         mainFrame.getLocationOnScreen().y + mainFrame.getHeight());
    savedWindow.setLocation(bottomCorner.x - savedWindow.getWidth(), bottomCorner.y);
    savedWindow.setVisible(true);
    javax.swing.Timer timer = new javax.swing.Timer(0, new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
            int newHeight = Math.min(savedWindow.getHeight()+6, desiredHeight);
            savedWindow.setSize(savedWindow.getWidth(),newHeight);
            savedWindow.setLocation(bottomCorner.x - savedWindow.getWidth(), bottomCorner.y-savedWindow.getHeight());
            savedPanel.repaint();
            if(newHeight >= desiredHeight) {
                ((javax.swing.Timer) e.getSource()).stop();
                //restore original layout
                savedWindow.getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
                savedWindow.validate();
    timer.start();
    javax.swing.Timer timer2 = new javax.swing.Timer(0, new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
            int newHeight = Math.max(savedWindow.getHeight()-6, 0);
            savedWindow.setSize(savedWindow.getWidth(),newHeight);
            savedWindow.setLocation(bottomCorner.x - savedWindow.getWidth(), bottomCorner.y-savedWindow.getHeight());
            savedPanel.repaint();
            if(newHeight <= 0) {
                ((javax.swing.Timer) e.getSource()).stop();
                savedWindow.dispose();
    timer2.setInitialDelay(2500);

  • ICal blank window pop up

    At random times this image pops up in iCal. It is always blank and I have no idea how to prevent it from popping up. Please help.
    please view a screenshot here:
    http://www.reemasville.com/web/ical.jpg

    That did it, actually. I had tried resizing it to make it smaller, but I guess I didn't go to enough extreme. I dragged the corner and made it just about as small as it would go, and the window popped up right where it should. I brought iCal back up to normal size, and there the edit window is.
    An odd fix, but a fix indeed. Thanks!

  • ICal for iPhone. View all events as a list without having to type into the earth box.

    iCal for iPhone. View all events as a list without having to type into the earth box.
    On the previous software version I used to be able to view all my calendar events as a list by clicking on the magnifying glass. Now you have to type into the search dialog box for a list to populate. This is very frustrating and annoying because I much prefer the list format to populate everything unless I specify what I am looking for into the search box. Is there a way to view all the events as a list without having to type anything into the search box?

    And you are aware of the possible options for listing the months and having an optional export value for each month.
    For listing the months, you can use a number, a 3 character string, or the full name.
    For the export value, the full name, the 3 character value, the 1-2 number, or the 0-11 JavaScript value.
    I would look at deciding how you want to populate the drop down box and build a one page form with just this field. You can then insert that page into a PDF and copy the field as needed and then delete the inserted page. Or you could create an FDF file to create the drop down box.

  • The drop down view by menu (Song, album, etc) at the right side of the iTunes window is like a ghost. It flashes into view for a millisecond once in awhile but never lets me click on it. Anyone know what this is about and what to do?

    The drop down view by menu (Song, album, etc) at the right side of the iTunes window is like a ghost. It flashes into view for a millisecond once in awhile but never lets me click on it. Anyone know what this is about and what to do?

    Short answer:
    Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
    Long answer:
    iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
    If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
    Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
    To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

  • Is it necessary to create a seperate window for a pop up view

    Hi Experts,
    Is it necessary to create a seperate window for a pop up view? I don't want to create a seperate window for a pop up view. As I don't want to make much changes in the present program logic.
    My only problem is following code. This code finds out the window. So I have to create a seperate window for a seperate pop up view.
    I am wondering if there is any API or the same API which can allow me to call the view instead of window
    IWDWindowInfo windowInfo =(IWDWindowInfo) wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows("Popup");
    IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createModalWindow(windowInfo);
    window.show();
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Gary

  • New Icloud Terms and Conditions window pops up every time I try to check my email, or when I open setting. My email doesn't load because of this, so I haven't been able to check my email for months.

    'New Icloud Terms and Conditions' window pops up every time I try to check my email, or when I open setting. My email doesn't load because of this, so I haven't been able to check my email for months. When I click, 'view terms' it takes me to my Icloud section in settings, but the terms don't pop up. I plugged it into my iTunes to see if it would pop up, but that didn't work either. My phone is updated, and I'm pretty sure I already accepted the new terms and conditions on the last update a few months back.

    Hi munaxnight,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone continuing to ask you to accept terms and conditions, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • Pop up view in Web Dynpro for ABAP

    Hi,
    I am new in web dynpro for ABAP. Now I am facing a problem of how to make a view pop up.
    Since I had already create some table in this view. I just want to make it pop up after I click a button. But I had no idea to do it, could anyone tell me how to do it?
    Thanks!

    Hi Ho,
    For POp up view please follow the below steps.
    1. Create one view [Ex:popup_view] and design it as per your requirement.
    2. Create one window [Ex:popup_win] and embed the popview_view into pop up window.
    3. Then write the below code when ever you need a pop up window.
    data: l_cmp_api           type ref to if_wd_component,
            l_window_manager    type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
    l_cmp_api           = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
      l_window_manager    = l_cmp_api->get_window_manager( ).
      if wd_this->m_popup1_1 is initial.
        wd_this->m_popup1_1 = l_window_manager->create_window(
                 window_name  = 'POPUP_WINDOW'
                 button_kind  = if_wd_window=>co_buttons_ok
                 message_type = if_wd_window=>CO_MSG_TYPE_STOPP ).
      endif.
      wd_this->m_popup1_1->open( ).
    Thanks.
