In search for OSX dashboard stickies's options

Hi
I'm using stickies inside my dashboard, but I have hard problems finding options for Dashboard Stickies.
Only options I have found is changing font type, size and sticky color.
I`m missing options like:
Duplicate sticky
Rich text editing (same as a non-dashboard sticky)
Shortcuts
Does these options exist?
Thank you!

Well I finally gave in and formatted the external drives to HTFS+, so now I can read and write on them from anywhere on my home network. But this does mean I cant unplug them and use then with a windows machine directly. Or I have to buy paragon HTFS+ for windows and have that every time with me on a USB drive been allowed to install it (for example on one of the the computer at my school). It feels to me like this just a marketing scheme to spend more money. I mean how am I as end user suppose to know that after I upgrade my OS I am not able to use external NTFS Hard drives on my network. No one in the store when I was buying a mac told me: "Hey when you buy a external drive do format it to HTFS+ immediately or else you could have problems. I mean apple knows that except maybe for a few brands the most used format for external drives is NTFS. There should have been at least a warring before installing Mountain Lion. The best scenario would have been if it just worked. Ok enough of my complaining, its just that this has been really frustrating. I mean to backup 3tb is about 20 hours and then copy it back to the drive is about 13. Am still copying as I write this.
But anyway that's one problem solved. Wake on LAN still have no luck with that one. Well I got a work around but its not ideal. For me setting the Display Sleep to 3 hours works, because my iMac 24 and my main PC are nest to each other. But I guess for people that need this for remote servers even that wont work. O btw maybe this helps a few people, Teamviewer seems to be able to wake him up too.

I can't find the plist for my Dashboard stickies in the normal place - is there anywhere else they might be?

I go to Mackintosh HD/Users but then can't find any folder that contains the widget-com.apple.widget.stickies.plist - my username doesn't seem to have a folder associated with it.
I go to t slats (my home folder) and there's no Library in there. I go to Mackintosh HD/Library/Preferences and there's no widget-com.apple.widget.stickies.plist
Any suggestions?

Hi tslatsau,
Try this:
Open a Finder Window
Click on the "Go" in the above status bar
Press and HOLD the "option/alt" key
the "Library" should appear in the Go list
Click Library still while holding the option/alt key
Look for com.Apple.Stickies.Plist

How to search for a dashboard widget

Can someone tell me how to search the Dashboard site for a specific widget?
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/
The ridiculous thing is, I think I asked this same question within the past year and someone answered it. But I'll be damned if I can find the search button again. It just is not intuitive. And when a friend asks me how to do something and I need to tell them I have to ask on the Apple website it's sort of embarrassing.

Type in Dashboard or widget as well as the name or description of that widget into the text field at the top right of the page. Press Enter.

Case Insensitive Search for the Dashboard Prompt Filter

Hi,
Can anyone help me, how to make dashboard propmt filter to be case insensitive, as of now dashboard propmts are case sensitive by default. How can we achieve this? Any help on this will be appreciated. TIA

I wonder if it can be done. don't know if there's any work-around for it.
Generally, the data that is imported into the SOD system is case sensitive hence the field on which you base your prompt will also be case sensitive.

Search for mai in gmail and copy text

I am having hard time to copy text. Basically, I need to search for mail in gmail and copy text to be sent as text message or copy as note.
1 In ff and default browser, I can search for mail, but no select option
2 In Nokia messaging there is no option for even search.
When I swipe from left to right, whole scree is moving. Appreciate any help.

For Copy-Pasting from Gmail, I am not aware of the technique of doing the same from a browser. The copy-paste function works well from a text-field to another text-field.
So, I just forward the Gmail message, so that the body of the text appears on a text-filed inside the browser......and then I copy-paste it................without really forwarding the message to anyone

If I remember right there "may" be a problem if you have a proxie settings enabled.
System Preferences/ Network/ Advanced/ Proxies. Can't remember which one or if it was an issue in 10.7 or 10.6. Just make sure their all unchecked and try again.
You might try a search in these forums for more information. Different fix's for different issue's.
Sorry I can't help more.........

Windows 7 Home Premium COA sticker illegible - Options for Windows 10 install?

My laptop's Window's sticker is very worn and I can maybe make out a character or two, but certainly not the full key to do the Windows 10 install. I have my recovery discs for re-installing my original system but that's not helpful for this upgrade. Microsoft chat was less than helpful. What are my options? Will the key that a program like Magical Jelly Bean Key work?

Yes.
OEM just means that the Windows OS is dedicated to that computer only. If you sell, replace or throw away the computer you use it on, the Windows CD/DVD goes along with it. (According to the Licensing dialog)
Just do a Yahoo/Google search for prices is the only way to find it cheaper. Or keep an eye on your favorite web store for sales.
If you are in college and have an .edu e-mail account thru the college then Microsoft has it for about $30 US. And other deals also.

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

Searching For Dashboard Widgets

Hi,
How do you search for Dashboard Widgets on Apple's website? Since they changed the site this year, I've found it very hard to find widgets which I know for a fact are listed on the site. For example, if I type into the Search bar in the top-right corner "tomatometer", I get no results. The only way I can see of finding the Tomatometer widget on Apple.com is to manually browse through the Widget Browser.
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

Easy enough to find. They are here.

Need a post-MobileMe synced replacement for dashboard stickies, suggestions?

This question is motivated by the MobileMe to iCloud transition, but could benefit any users of Mac OS X Lion (and could be answered by anyone using a Lion desktop/laptop) so I felt it best to ask in this forum...
Now that I've moved from MobileMe to iCloud, no longer are my dashboard stickies synced between all the computers I use (nor any other dashboard widgets). Over the years, I've become quite fond of using dashboard stickies (not to be confused with the standalone Stickies application, nor the "notes" awkwardly stored inside Mail) to remember and keep track of all sorts of things. The way you can swipe between full screen workspaces in Lion actually makes me even more motivated to continue to use dashboard to keep track of stuff and jot random things down. I would never want to launch some application or go digging through a mail client or a web site in order to do this. Dashboard is what I like to use.
Now that I can't sync my stickies though, this information is constantly at-risk. In fact, since many dashboard widgets are extremely hard (it's not just a simple .plist swap anymore) to restore from a backup, if anything were to get messed up on my primary Mac all this information would just vanish (yikes).
It seems like this would be an excellent time for someone out there to implement a replacement widget for the default Apple stickies that offers some sort of networked syncing or other form of backup...does anyone know of a widget that can do this? If not, I wonder if anyone would be interested in developing one for people like me? I can't be the only user who would love this (former MobileMe customer or otherwise).
I would love to hear suggestions from anyone on what I can do about this. Just bear in mind, I have no interest at all in having "notes" bured inside my mail, even if they are synced to my iPhone. That's just useless to me.
THANK YOU for any help!

I was looking for something like this too and am surprised there is no widget for iCloud notes.

Search for Missing Links in This Folder option not working

I'm running InDesign CC 9.2.1, though this problem has persisted throughout the last few years and previous versions of InDesign. My operating system is OS 10.9.3. In early versions of InDesign, you could check the "Search for Missing Links in This Folder" option box when re-linking a missing link and the missing image would be highlighted in the finder window of the new image location. I did not keep track of what version of InDesign it was when this function ceased to work properly, but I would like to see if there is something I can do to make it work again.
The "Search for Missing Links in This Folder" check box is still in the finder window, and is always checked, so in theory it should highlight the missing link/s in the folder it is searching in, but it does not. The example below illustrates my point. The InDesign document that I used to illustrate this was opened up and there were four missing links. When I select the missing link/s and hit the relink button at the bottom of the links palate, I navigate to the correct location of the link but the image doesn't get selected even though the "Search for Missing Links" is checked. The missing link it should have highlighted was 431-11 frontal.psd, which clearly exists at the top of the "Front Street" folder.
This isn't a big deal when the folder contains four images. But when it has hundreds of links, it is a pain to try to find all of the links that are missing when the file name is often truncated, or it has an odd string of only numbers, etc. Just checking to see if anyone has any insight to this issue.

I think the yellow alert triangle next to each link name means that you just have to update those links, by hitting the refresh button at the bottom of the link panel once all links are selected (it's two arrows in a circle)

Search for "All Pictures" option deleted

I accidentally took the "all images" option off of the sidebar in my finder window (under "Search for") and can't seem to get it back, nor can I actually see all my images unless I clicked on that folder. Is there a way to get that back (and how do I view my pictures within the Finder window without having to open iPhoto?
