Is there a way for mac os 10.8 to become a white background with black text in dockmenu like it was in os x 10.5?

the black dockmenu which was introduced with os x 10.6 is difficult to read for me, i would back the white version which was used in os x 10.5.
is this possible or would it eventually possible under os 10.8.2 or a newer version?
thanks

You can't change it within the OS. There may be some apps which will do it. Search Dock on MacUpdate.
But all these types of haxies come with possible risk.

  • Is there a way for mac to turn a voice file into text?

    is there a way for mac to turn a voice file into text?

    Mt Lion has dictation. I've had some luck using that and my iPhone voice memo program transcribing. It works best when the memo's are a minute or less and obviously there's editing to do afterwards.

  • Is there any way for me to get a 5th generation ipod touch 16gb with both cameras?

    i really wanna get an ipod touch 5th generation but i also want the forward and out facing cameras, and for me $200 is already kind of expensive for me, let alone $300, is there any way for me to get an ipod 5th gen without the extra $100?

    Like JEM24 said, Certified Refurbished is an Apple item which has been used but been checked over and (if necessary) repaired.
    Also, the iPod Touch 4th Generation is 3 years old and cannot get iOS 7 - meaning some apps can't run on it.
    Once again, here is the certified refurbished link: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/ipod/ipod_touch
    Hope this helps!

  • Is there a way for converting WCF service into Azure Cloud Service without dealing with project files.

    Here is my situation.
    We provide Platform and SDK to other people where they can build WCF services and deploy that on site. We have a  many ISVs who has built wcf services, packaged them and ship them.
    Packaging consist of couple of manifest file and .dll file that make up wcf service. Now we want to go on cloud with our platform.
    Long story short - I have all the dlls for my wcf service but no project file.
    Is there a way to generate cloud service package from this dll files?

    Hi,
    You can't simply package your dlls and deploy it as a azure cloud service deployment package - you will need to have your project as well as service definition file which will define your role and instances.
    You can read more about packaging an Application by Using the CSPack Command-Line Tool here -http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/gg433133.aspx
    another way to go to cloud platform is by making use of azure web sites, however you will still need your service files do deploy.
    If you have the dlls and the service files with you - then you can simply use the web site publish wizard and deploy to azure web site.
    Read more about it here - http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-deploy/

  • Is there a way for your backup to remember what songs you have downloaded with itunes match

    i use itunes match, but i download the songs to my device as i have spotty service where i work and live.
    i am upgrading to a larger size iphone and dont want to have to search through itunes match again and select all the songs i want to download again once i get the new phone. is there a way that itunes match will "remember" what song i have downloaded to my device and "re-download" them to the new device?
    maybe via a playlist then just download the playlist? this seems like a lenghty way of doing it though.
    anyhelp, tips or advice would be greatly appreciate. thanks

  • I'm trying to downgrade my icloud storage; however, my MAC book will not upgrade pass 10.6.8 and I don't have my iphone anymore.  If there another way for me to do this?

    I'm trying to downgrade my icloud storage; however, my MAC book will not upgrade pass 10.6.8 and I don't have my iphone anymore.  If there another way for me to do this?  I've tried everything I can find online and of course my coverage has expired and can't call the support team.

    Hello Lara,
    have you already called Apple and explained your current situation, because I don't see a way to downgrade your storage plan with a Mac only running Snow Leopard and without a iOS device running at least iOS 5.
    Best regards.

  • I have always heard that Macs are less likely to get infected with a virus.  My computer has been running much slower since I installed Maverick.  Just not sure what the problem might be.  Is there a way for me to run a diagnosis?

    I have always heard that Macs are less likely to get infected with a virus.  My computer has been running much slower since I installed Maverick.  Just not sure what the problem might be.  Is there a way for me to run a diagnosis?

    Some have found relief just by reinstalling, but it is more than likely incompatible third-party applications that slow it down.
    You will have to investigate to see what it is.
    Open Activity Monitor and see if anything is using a lot of CPU% or Memory. If they are, check to see if there is an update for them.
    Another place to look is the Console. See if anything is logging repeating messages with throttling and/or respawn in the All Messages list.
    Sometimes it is not that easy to root out the problems, but if you have anything that purported to clean, protect, optimize, maintain, or flush your system, then that is likely the cause.

  • Is there a way for two people to play music on Apple TV.  We both have itunes [she on windows, me on mac [mt lion].

    Use Boot Camp Assistant in
    Applications/Utility
    Remove the partition.
    There is also a full pdf help guide built in Help menu there.
    There are other methods also. Use OS X DVD and delete it but you can't do so while booted from your hard drive.
    Memory = "RAM" that programs use and get loaded into to run
    Your partition is part of hard drive physical storage where OS and applications are kept until needed.
    And yes, Mac needs to have 20GB or 20% minimum to avoid problems and will run slower with such small amount of free space.
    You could also do one of a number of ways to backup and then boot from another device and reformat and then restore your drive.
    A "Mac Pro" is a workstation with multiple internal drive bays so really easy to backup, put Windows on its own hard drive; and no need to have someone else do anything - at all.

  • I accidentally formatted my portable hard drive when setting it up for time machine. Is there any way for me to get back my lost files?

    I have an external hard drive of the brand Western Digital.
    Before I got my iMac I moved a lot of my important files from my PC to the hard drive and today I went on and connected it to my iMac to move my files over to it.
    When it had connected a window popped up that asked if I wanted to use this hard drive with the program Time Machine and create backups. Without thinking it trough enough and reading the warning properly (I'm stupid I know) I clicked "yes". I then realised how stupid it was and cancelled the formatting of the hard drive. But somehow the program still managed to delete all my important files and can't find any way to get them back. Neither can I connect the hard drive to my PC anymore so I can't check if the files are still there (which I doubt they are since I can't see them on my iMac either).
    And now I wonder: is there any way for me to get back my lost files or are they lost forever?
    Thank you in advance!

    A data recovery specialist or some data recovery programs should be able to help.  Most format simply rewrite the directory tree saying no files are on this disk.  The bits that represent the files are still flipped appropreiately so they still exists, you just don't have the location info to get at them.  Secure formats and erases rewrite each bit to a zero or 1 or random so the data is then truely gone.  This type of format takes a long time to complete.
    I'm not making a recomendation of a particular program but here is one company that does what you ask:
    http://www.remosoftware.com/mac-recovery  The cost is pretty high but I'm sure they don't sell many copies and need to cover their development costs.
    Good luck and don't write anything on the freshly formatted disk until you decide what to do.

  • HT1338 I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8. Is there any way for me to install and run keynote on this machine? Do I need to upgrade OS and how? Thanks

    I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8
    Is there any way for me to install and run Keynote on this machine? Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Keynote '09 is compatible with your computer, but you won't get the latest Keynote version running that version. As you have an Early 2008 MacBook, first I recommend you to update to Mac OS X Snow Leopard to get newer versions of all applications but without losing any applications > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Make a backup before upgrading.
    The DVD contains Mac OS X 10.6.3, so after upgrading, open  > Software Update to update to 10.6.8. Then, you will get access to the App Store.
    However, the Keynote version available in the App Store is only compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or newer, so now you have two options:
    1. Upgrade to OS X Lion and purchase Keynote from the App Store.
    2. Keep Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, and buy Keynote on a DVD in eBay or Amazon. Note that you won't be running the most recent Keynote version, but it doesn't mind (the latest version only adds iCloud support)

  • I've already paid 5 dollars to buy iMovie on my iPhone, and now I've got my macbook, I've synced my accounts and stuff, and it still wants me to pay 15 dollars to buy the app again? isn't there a way for me to get the app without paying for it again?

    Ive already payed for iMovie on my phone, and it wants me to pay again for it on my macbook. Is there a way for me to get it without paying again?

    The iOS and Mac versions of iMovie are in effect separate programs (coded completely differently for the two operating systems) and have to be purchased separately.

  • I've recently purchased an iPhone after years of using a Blackberry.  Is there a way for me to transfer all my contacts directly from my Bberry to my iPhone?

    I've recently purchased an iPhone after years of using a Blackberry.  Is there a way for me to transfer all my contacts directly

    Your wireless provider should be able to do that at one
    of their retail locations.
    If not, you need to get the information from the blackberry to the
    appropriate program in your computer (for example Outlook on
    a PC, Contact on a Mac) and then when you connect your iPhone
    to that computer and open iTunes, you will be given a choice to
    sync that data from the computer to your iPhone.
    If you can get the information from your blackberry to google contacts,
    you can sync to iPhone from there.

  • I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same fam

    I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.
