IMessage viewing options in Maverick not working

I changed the iMessage background colors to what I want them to be but ever since I upgraded to Maverick on my MacBook Pro it reverts back to the default colrs when I shut down my computer for the night.  Is there any way to change to the settings I want permanently and now have to go through this every time I turn my computer on?

Sweet Jesus the old lady messed up my cables
K, Ive dug
Out the proper ones, we just moved.
It's going from right in the back if the Mac Pro, to a hdmi cable.  No adapter.  Out Mac Pro (forget what that connection is called) to hdmi
The adapter cable is fine it's always worked.  When the old lady downloaded maverick the monitor stopped working immed.

  • View options "none" is not working for my User

    Yesterday, suddenly, I can't (1) drag a file to my user desktop, though I can save to it, (2) drag a file or folder to another place on the desk-top (a bar-in-circle forbidden sign appears). I can't CMD-drag either, or make an alias , or make a new folder. "Duplicate", "Make alias", and "New folder" are greyed out in the Finder file menu. I can delete, or drag into a folder in the dock.
    Under "Show View Options", I can reorder the files, which all snap to the right, but "None" just reverts me to a previous lay-out (where I had the files before), but I can't drag them to another place.
    This only affects my User. I have checked another User and the Guest User, and there is no problem.
    I've repaired permissions. I've trashed mu User ~/library/application support/dock; ~/library/caches/com.apple.finder; ~/library/preferences/com.apple.finder.plist; ~/library/preferences/com.apple.doc.plist, all without success.
    Where do I go from here? I'd be very grateful for help.
    I'm using a new MacBook Pro (retina, 15- inch, Mid-2014), under OS 10.10

  • Show View Options (DEFAULT) DOES NOT work

    I'm pulling out my hair trying to get my Finder "show view options" to default. This worked fine in Leopard, but in Snow Leopard, the make "default" option doesn't seem to work. I'm using an erase and install version of Snow Leopard. I've used Cocktail and SWIPE to delete all DS_Store files and still it seems the default option won't work.
    I can choose my settings, then make default. Some folders will accept it and others won't. I've searched the web and see others with the same problem. Is there an easy solution? Switching through folders only to have different finder views is really annoying.
    Bryan

    Thanks KT-- I finally got it. After using Cocktail, DS_Store Terminator, another app, and a terminal command, then finally a restart, all seems well. I finally have all of my finder windows to my default view.
    I'll bet Cocktail and then a restart would have worked though, but I didn't restart until the last step.
    Anyway, it's good now.

  • In iTunes 11.1 (I26) , I cannot find how to delete podcast listings showing undownloaded podcasts. Delete does not work. Option Delete does not work.  Dragging to the trash does not work. Under Edit, Delete is greyed out. Mac OS 10.6.8

    in iTunes 11.1 (I26) , I cannot find how to delete podcast listings showing undownloaded podcasts. Delete does not work. Option Delete does not work. Dragging to the trash does not work. Under Edit, Delete is greyed out. Mac OS 10.6.8.
    Tom at the Genius Bar told me that Option Delete would work. It does not.
    I had to upgrade to iTunes 11.1.(I26) because it is required with OS7 on my iPod Touch (5th Gen). I have tried shutting down iTunes, then shutting down the entire system. This is the first in many visits that the Genius Bar gave me a solution that did not work.
    This is a big awkward computer locked to my desk. I would rather not unlock it and then carry it through a shopping center to the Genius Bar if i can avoid oit.
    When I installed iTunes 11.1, I discovered that Ihad to resubscribe to virtually all of the podcasts that I had previously been subscribed to. That was a surprise.

    Hello Achates:
    I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
    Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

  • Sharepoint 2013 list view quick edit does not work with out remote API permissions

    sharepoint 2013 list view quick edit does not work with out remote API permissions.
    When I give Use Remote Interfaces  -  Use SOAP, Web DAV, the Client Object Model or SharePoint Designer interfaces to access the Web site it works which is not an ideal situation..

    This is true. If you use Fiddler to watch the requests from the list view quick edit you can see CSOM calls. For example when changing a value in a cell, when you tab out you will see the SetFieldValue and Update method calls on the list item.

  • IMac bocked on start up. Password forgotten. Command-option-p-r not working

    iMac bocked on start up. Password forgotten. Command-option-p-r not working

    "Bocked"? Is that a word?
    The key combination you mention is for resetting parameter RAM or PRAM.  Nothing really to do with passwords.
    At what stage is it asking for a password?

  • Documents view in Mavericks not working

    I can't click on any of my documents in Mavericks. The viewing options are inactive. That is, I can see a grey-colored list of the files, but I can't select any of them. When I switch the viewing options, some of the files will be "alive" and clickable, but mosts are grey

    Switch your finder to list view, the second icon with 4 stright lines.
    Then hold Command and Control on your keyboard and click Zero on the Keyboard.
    there is a small issue in Mavericks with the arrange feature. That command I gave you
    reset the arrange feature to resolve that issue. This will get the finder to start working normally
    from now on

  • IMessage is Activated but its Not working after ios 6.1.3(10B329) iPhone 4

    i update my iPhone 4 to ios 6.1.3(10B329) and i restore my backup and i synced my Transfered Purchases and i discovered that the iMessage is not working, i tried to re-activate the iMessage feature ,i Did but it still not working, i Contact Vodafone and they Told me that they have nothing to do and its Probably a Problem in apple server!
    Pls HELP!

    Both users need to have an active data connection, either wifi or cellular for iMessage to work. Also, both have to have iMessage activated. It is difficult for you to tell what is going on for the other user. However, you might want to try this to flush out any problems in the system. Go into Settings and disable iMessage. Reset the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, go back into Setting and activate iMessage. Try an iMessage after that.
    You can use this support document to troubleshoot iMessage activation http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268 and this one to troubleshoot iMessage usage. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755

  • Option key is not working on PS4, mac OS 10.6.8

    Hi I'm having a problem with PhotoShop 4, the keyboard shortcut for a couple of tools is not working at all.
    1) The Zoom in and out function that uses the Option Key + Shift or Option to change the Zoom in or out is not working.
         I'm not sure if it's a conflict with the OS or an operator error of some kind.
    2) The Lasso Tool that uses the Option Key for doing a straight line is not working.
    3) The Clone Stamp Tool that uses the Option Key for selecting the area you want to clone is not working.
    Does anyone have an idea of what the problem might be?
    Thanks - Just Plain Bill - 

    It only works on 64-bit Macs.

  • Problem with combo in js IE - new Option(t,v) not working

    hello! Did somene had experience some problems with
    adding new options in select object (combo box) in javascript? I can change text or value property, delete option by setting it to null, but when I want to add new, there is a problem!?
    why this code doesn't work?
    <script>
    ref = window.document.frmExample["cbo1"];
    alert(ref.length);
    ref.options[ref.length] = new Option("text'","value1");
    alert(ref.length);
    </script>
    interesting thing is that this works in Netscape (6), but it is not working in IE(5.5), and this is my first and last example where Netscape is 'better'...
    Can someone help, please?
    regards...
    Vlada

    you are right, it works in the 'mother' page, but if I want to add some options from popup window (window.open...), and when I accessing combo throught opener propery, than I have problem, because it is not working!?
    code sample...
    ... 'mother' page function ...
    function fAdd(){
    var popupW;
    popupW = window.open("page.html","name",attr);
    if (!popupW.opener)
    popupW.opener = window;
    ... popup window function...
    function fClick(){
    var opt;
    var ref = window.opener.document.frmExample1["cbo1"];
    alert(ref.length);
    opt = "new";
    ref.options[ref.length] = new Option(opt,opt);
    window.close();
    I get alert with the number ofoptions in combo, so ref is OK. I can delete some of them, change, but not to add new! Then I get Error message.
    any sugestion!? Strange, but it works in Netscape ...

  • IMessage on iPad and Mac not working since 9/9/14

    Hello!
    All of a sudden, iMessage stopped working since 9/9/14. So here is the weird thing. It is working on my iPhone 5S, BUT I cannot send any iMessages to my mother in Austria. The weird thing is, my mother still can send iMessages to other friends, just not to me, not even on my iPhone. The other weird thing is, i cannot send any iMessages anymore on my Mac or iPad. It says on my Mac that ".... XXXXXX is not registered with iMessage", while I can send an iMessage from my iPhone 5S without any problems to that number.
    So I tried EVERY trick in the book: Restart, logging out everywhere, Cmd+alt+p+r reset, resetting Mac, resetting iPhone and iPad, nothing worked (so please do not tell me anything with logging out and back in, resetting etc., I appreciate any help, but I already did this in any possible combination).
    Clearly, there is something wrong with the iMessage servers. What else can I do?

  • When I restart, previous tabs & websites open. I have selected open in new page in options this does not work

    When I start my computer and open Firefox, all the tabs from the previous session open. For now, I have to return each session to my home page (Google) prior to closing to prevent this from occuring. I have selected "When Firefox starts show my home page" this does not work. I have de selected and then reselected this option numerous times and it has now become a very big annoyance. I am about to uninstall Mozilla if this cant be rectified.

  • Mail in Mavericks not working between two macs.

    Hello all
    I have a 2012 iMac as well as a 2009 MacBook Pro. I am running Mavericks on both machines. I'm having issues with my exchange e-mail contacts and calendar, syncing between the two devices. I will get it to work on one device or the other but not both at the same time. More specifically in mail when it is working on one computer and I go to check my mail on the other it asks me to put in my password for that e-mail account. Every time I do this it does not work and it always returns an error. If I go to delete an account on either computer it tells me the account is linked to "Internet account" under settings for the computer. When I delete the exchange account from "Internet account" it warns me that it will delete the account off of both macs. When I re-add the exchange account mail, contacts and calander all work for whichever computer I add it on. But the other computer will only show calander or contacts not all three.
    Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong or have a solution? This is very frustrating and I cant seem to find a solution.

    Hi,
    Those last two I do not have on my iMac that is working and part of the issue I have in testing is I don't have a second Mac that will run Yosemite.
    Realistically it could be any of the ones that contain com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.private.alloy.***.plist
    The plain SMS.plist  only states it has been started up not what the Mac is linked to.
    Unfortunately nothing is standing out as the Specific one for me at the moment.
