ICS and widgets

I got the ICS update yesterday.  Just did a hard reset of my phone as it was killing my battery life.  Verdict is out on this.  HOwever, my new issue, after the reset, is I can't seem to create/add widgets.  I used to just hold my finger on a blank spot on the screen and a menu would pop up with widgets being an option.  It is no longer an option.  Any idea on how to add a widget?  Thanks!

To Get your Widgets you have to Open your App Drawer and there on the Very Top of were your apps are to Cycle Threw them Scroll to the Right--> then hold Tap on them to Send them to the Home Screen.. And your Widget that are down on the Bottom Next to the App drawer Icon you can Move them up and the ones that are up on the Page Drop down there.
It take some time Getting use to how to Do this but my Suggestion is Just play with it Have a Look on YouTube as they have Videos on How to move things and Navigate them around this is Were i Go when i want find how to move and adjust things..b33

  • Problem in opening .ics and .vcs file types through servlet in IE browser.

    I'm having problem in downloading an .ics and .vcs file through servlet in I.E browser. It is happening fine in Mozilla firefox(they both are getting opened in OutLook), but in IE it says as undefined file type.
    I'm using Content Type as : 'text/Calendar' and then setting header as :
    response().setContentType("text/Calendar");
    response().setContentLength(file.length());
    response().setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;
    filename="+filepath);
    and after that i'm writing it to OutPut stream.
    Plz Help.

  • HT2513 I have a Macbook pro and I've lost my ical and widget icons. It says it's in the trash but I can't find it.

    I have a Macbook pro and I've lost my ical and widget icons. It says it's in the trash but I can't find it.

    Hey Shady K,
    It sounds like you've removed the iCal and Widget icons from your dock and want to get the back there for easy access. The following document goes over dock basics and there's a section (which I copied below) that goes over how to get those icons back on to the dock. Essentially you'll just find the application's icon in your applications folder and drag it back.
    Mac Basics: The Dock
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2474
    Adding and removing Dock items
    If you want to add an application to the Dock, click the Launchpad icon in the Dock and drag the application icon to the Dock; the icons in the Dock will move aside to make room for the new one. If you want to add a file or folder to the Dock, just drag its icon from any Finder window (or the desktop) and drop it on the Dock. The resulting icon that appears in the Dock is actually an alias of the original item (it's kind of a pointer to your original item). If you drag an application or file onto the Dock, you'll be able to open it anytime by simply clicking its docked icon. If you drag a folder onto the Dock, a Finder window of the folder's contents will display when you click the folder icon in the Dock.
    To remove an item from the Dock, drag its icon an inch or more off the Dock and wait a couple seconds, then release; the icon will disappear in a poof of smoke. There are some icons that you can't remove from the Dock, such as the Trash and the Finder.
    Don't worry, you aren't permanently removing the item from your computer; you simply got rid of its Dock icon. If you want that item back in the Dock, locate the application, file, or folder in the Finder (or with Spotlight), and drag it back into the Dock.
    Hope that helps,
    David

  • Droid Bionic battery dying since ICS and 4G

    I have owned my Bionic for just over a year.  Recently I upgraded to ICS and last Friday Nov. 9th our area went to 4G.  My battery is dying quickly......Example...as of 10:03AM my phone has been on for 3 hours, the screen shows that it has been on for 31 minutes, and I am down to 70% battery after a full charge.  I did do a factory reset yesterday due to issues with the Android OS using up over 40% of battery - now it is at 28%.  I have turned down screen brightness, lengthened updates, I have wi-fi turned off as I do not use it, etc.  I don't want to have to limit everything, or it really isn't worth having the phone.
    Phone completely dies each night around 10 with light use.
    Any ideas without considering a new phone?

        That certainly is a strange phenomenon, veriozonjj68117. Clearing the cache http://vz.to/P5s0JC and temporary internet files http://vz.to/rYO9Ym can sometimes help. The system cache clearing that ginnypres mentioned are:
    Power down phone
    Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously
    Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
    Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
    Press volume up/down simultaneously
    Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
    Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select
    That is a fantastic way of helping to clear out all the cookie crumbs on your phone and a great step before the need to resort to resetting http://vz.to/nExWmP the device.

  • Absence of IM app and widget on N8

    Hello!
    Can anyone from Nokia, please, tell me why there is no chat application on my Nokia N8. At the product page (at least in Finland) it is written, that in selected markets there is a chat application available for the most popular instant messaging protocols. I have seen some reports of early devices with this application but apparently it was removed from latter firmware versions. I haven't found any clues abou why this application is withdrawn from the release firmwares from any forums (including this one) or articles for any markets.
    Is the chat application/widget under development and will it be released any time soon? I have seen Nokia's video from Nokia World 2010 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN-4hUGYcOw) where the IM application and widget are demoed. That application was one very important reason among the others why I bought my N8. Could someone clarify this situation?
    -Almost happy N8 owner
    P.S. I am well aware of the third party alternatives but I'm not interested in them in this post.
    Solved!

    What Happens To the IM for Nokia N8?
    I also saw the video before I bought my N8. That contributed to buy it.
    In Venezuela I could see Nokia employees with active IM.
    They themselves told me that the PR 1.1 would be active!
    What happens? Even when the deception?
    First with my N97 that would be awesome and it was a big disappointment.
    Now also with the N8. That I will not buy more Nokia phones?
    I remember one that launched Nokia N95 and was only a success! Today is not the same.

  • ICS Calendar Widget Date Bug

    I'm running the .587 software release.
    Today is 10th September. I added a new calendar event for 25th September to my Google calendar (all OK). I have the calendar widget on my homescreen and it shows "No upcoming calendar events" (as it should as there are no events in the immediate future). If I tap on "No upcoming calendar events" it will show me my next event (the one on 25th September) -- all good so far.
    However, when I look at the details shown for this event it shows both the "From" and "To" times as "01:00, Thu, 1 Jan 1970"!!! (if I go through the Calendar app and not the widget the dates display properly as 25th September). This is extremely annoying, and it can also corrupt your calendar dates by replacing them with this 1970 date if you then go on to tap the "edit event" button.
    Please fix this bug!!!!

    Have you also tried with other calendar widgets to see if the same problem occurs? It's wise to try so your able to sort out what might be causing the issue.
    Try it out and let me know!

  • Problems with stuck/dead pixels, battery life, ICS, and other problems

    Stuck/Dead Pixels:
    I bought my Droid Razr at around the 21st of December last year. On or around Christmas, I found a bright red pixel on the very bottom of my screen. Unlucky for me, I was leaving for Florida on Christmas Night. I got back on December 31st. Sometime in the first week of this year, I visited my verizon store and told the customer service lady that I had a dead pixel on my screen and had just bought it. But, she told me that she needed the manager to fix this and there was no manager there. For the next week I was busy with school and sports etc and was not able to go back to the store. It was now past my 14 day return period. So I decided, its only one pixel, most people won't notice it anyway. So here I am 5 months later, just starting to discover more pixels dying on my screen. I now have the one bright red one, two light blue ones, and one dark red. I have no idea what the return policy is on defective phones, and the verizon site is designed so that you can't find anything. And an FYI, I have tried stuck pixel removers and other apps, which  haven't been successful.
    Battery Life:
    I have also been finding more problems with my phone. The battery life is terrible when 4G and even 3G are on. I actually see no difference in battery consumption between 3G/4G.  My battery dies  about 4-5X faster when data is turned on, compared to using no data. I know it isn't because of the apps I installed since when I use WiFi, the battery is alright. I also make sure that my RAM isn't above 400MB, so that the processor doesn't use a lot of battery. I feel like I completely wasted my money buying the Razr. Mainly because of the fact that the Razr Maxx was announced two weeks later, which has about 80% more battery. Not only this, but I've seen the Razr selling for only ONE PENNY on amazon over the past month and it still is. I payed $300 on my Razr.
    Ice Cream Sandwich:
    After these major problems comes another one, that I bet all Razr and Razr Maxx customers are still thinking about. When will I get Ice Cream Sandwich? It is very disappointing when you are told that you will be getting an upgrade in early 2012, and are still wondering where your upgrade is 5 full months in. From what I understand, we won't see an upgrade until the end of June, since Motorola has posted on their website that "rollouts" would begin in the second quarter. Even if they release it by the end of June, when will it get to your phone? Maybe another week or two for some people. This is another thing that I feel I wasted my money on. My brother told me to get the Nexus because of ICS, but I trusted Motorola that they would upgrade my phone in a timely manner. WRONG.
    Phone Freezing:
    One more problem that I've had is that the phone will freeze. Usually you only need to turn the screen off and on, but once in a while, you have to completely reboot your phone. When I was coming back from Florida, right as I was about to get home, my phone completely froze. I was about to go return it, but after about 15-20 minutes, it became unfrozen.
    Motion Sensor not functioning:
    Another problem, an annoying one, is that sometimes the motion sensor that controls portrait and landscape mode will just stop working. Some of the games I play are completely dependent on the motion sensor. It is very embarrassing  when you are trying to show off to an iPhone friend and major components of your phone aren't working. They always tell me "why didn't you get an iPhone?". And I really just wanted to have a phone that didn't look like everyone else's, but I guess that comes at a cost. When the motion sensor stops working, I have to shut down my phone and restart, which takes a couple minutes.
    Problems with camera:
    My last problem would be with the camera. Sometimes if you bring the camera close to something, like a barcode, it will keep trying to focus, but never will. Another problem is photo quality in low light situations. It seems like the camera can't focus because it goes from being very dark into being bright because of the flash. I doubt this can be fixed because it's hardware, but a potential fix could be having the option to keep the LED light on during picture mode, that way the camera will be able to focus correctly.
    In Conclusion:
    I really just want someone to tell me how to return my phone for a new one, due to the dead pixels. I also wish I could be upgraded to the Razr Maxx because of the poor battery life on the Razr, but from what other people are saying, that probably won't happen. And finally, if anyone has more info about Ice Cream Sandwich, that would be awesome.

    Well since it's a Manufacturing Error it should Fall under your Warranty if you got one with your Razr. You know you can Call C.S. an they can Assist you with the Matter on it.. Just remember to have another phone so they can Trouble shoot the One that is Experiencing the Issue an when you talk to them go over thing. An they should send you C.G.A.N unless they request you to send it in before you get anther one. If you feel Better going to the Store try that. And Good Luck.. 

  • The Page turning effect and widgets. Who else wants this as a widget? I can't get it in ibooks author.

    The page turning effect( or lack of). Having spent 6 months writing a children's story in ibooks author, I can't get this effect unless I export it as a pdf, and re export as an epub. I lose the interactive widgets, and the font format goes crazy, extra page numbers as well. I contacted apple support on 4th Nov, but was recommended to come here. I want the page turning effect, and want to keep the widgets. Surely there is a "widget" to plug in to this? Honestly, I despair...

    I don't think anybody has found a way to do what you want with iBA.  Join the rest in letting Apple know how much you want it via

  • 512MB of RAM and Widgets...can it make the system completely freeze?

    Noticing a very sluggish response on my Mac Mini I realize that memory is an issue with MS Office and such using Safari with iCal in the background.
    My Mac does a complete freeze, no force quit no toggle when I hit F12 (widgets) retrieving widgets while an app is running will freeze the system it has occurred twice in one day.
    I use a maintenance tool to run cron jobs, optimize safari, updated prebinding, check S.M.A.R.T disk and all is fine.
    Looking for more avenues...
    I am on the fence on adding more memory because of the processor chip and wanting to go to Leopard shortly..
    I may just have to backup and live with this problem...

    The folder and question mark at startup is an indicator that no valid MacOS install was found to boot from. Usually it means the system can't find the internal drive or the internal drive wasn't correctly recognized. In a normally functional and correctly configured Mac, this is a rare thing, but it can happen if, for example, the system is usually booted from an external drive, but the external is disconnected or powered down.
    However, it can also be caused by an error in the system management controller, where an SMC reset will usually resolve it. It may have been this in your case, since although you may not have intentionally performed an SMC reset, the disconnection of power and other devices is essentially the same thing!
    Just check that the startup disk preference pane has the internal drive selected, and as long as there is a valid MacOS install on that, this problem should not recur.

  • Terminal and Widget Problems

    I am running into an unusual problem with my computer. I used Terminal to allow my widgets to go to the desktop (witch did not work), but when I typed in the command it added the plus and arrow symbol (the same as when you go to widgets on your mac) to my main desktop. How do I fix this?
    file://localhost/Users/student/Desktop/Screen%20Shot%202013-05-17%20at%201.10.18 %20PM.TIF

    Fixed this issue by installing XQuartz.  After this the DISPLAY environment variable is set to a value. 
    plb$ env | grep DIS
    DISPLAY=/tmp/launch-fMUlob/org.macosforge.xquartz:0
    plb$ ssh -Y oracle@grid1vm1
    oracle@grid1vm1's password:
    Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.
    Last login: Wed Aug  8 17:58:09 2012 from 10.187.89.245
    [oracle@grid1vm1 ~]$ env | grep DIS
    DISPLAY=localhost:11.0
    [oracle@grid1vm1 ~]$ xclock
    XQuartz starts on the Mac and xclock now appears as it should in my Mac display.
