Is there any way to make the scroll bars wider and blue in Lion?

Nope, afraid not. The only third-party utility that you might look at is LionScrollBars 0.5.4. You can search for others at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

Is there any way to make the sent folder in mail list emails in the "to" order instead of "from".

Sure open Sent folder.
Just above first message is an icon titled Sort By Date followed by a downward pointing arrow.
Click on the arrow and select "To" from the list.

Is there any way to make the page size of a PDF document smaller? I'm at 30"x36" and want 8.5"x11"

The quickest way is to print to a new PDF and use shrink to fit. Be sure you set the paper size in the printer properties. Normally this is not recommended, but it is a quick approach. You would loss any bookmarks and other markup with the print.

Is there any way to make the cursor appear larger in Mac OS X?

Wow, love my 27" screen, but have trouble finding the cursor! Is there any way to make the cursor appear larger? Perhaps adjustable for fine print capture?
Thanks!

System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Mouse -> Cursor size
However, I prefer using Mouse Locator (free download)

I like this Mouse Locator Graphic

Is there a way to make the scroll wheel move up and down instantly like you could with previous versions, instead of moving slowly up and down?

I've only recently updated my firefox to v 15.0.1 after using v 10 for so long, and I was wondering if there is a way to make the scroll wheel move up and down instantly without having it slowly crawl to it's spot?

you can disable smooth scrolling.

*Is there any way to limit the Chart Bar size dynamically?*

Hi
I have selected the Marker size as Medium for my Bar chart.
Bar chart bar showing too big when there is only one bar.
Is there any way to limit the bar size dynamically?
Thank you

hi Ruwan,
Don is correct in that there is no option in the chart design component to do this.
what you can do though (i know it is a pain) is to
1) create a new chart in a new section with a narrower bar using the chart options dialogue
2) create a conditional suppression formula for the new section and the old chart section based on the value returned in the Show Value for the chart
i have created a request for a charting overhaul [here |https://ideas.sap.com/community/products_and_solutions/crystalreports;jsessionid=B3E2E9F6A6CC9C9F5321659382A91855.node0]in the ideas place which includes a solution for this particular issue. please feel free to give it the thumbs up if you think that this is a worthwhile idea.

Is there any ways to make Mail app show prefix and suffix in the address field?

I apologize for any inconvenience that my poor English may cause.
I would like to ask if there is a way to make Maill app show prefix and suffix in the address field.
This is, in my culture, very important, especially for formal situations. When I call someone such as professors, bosses, I should put prefix after their names to show my respect. In Microsoft Outlook, there is a field called 'Display as'.
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/contacts/contact-address-book-options-settings/
Therefore, I can choose how the name will be shown in my messages. For example, Prof. Kim instead of Kim. However, as far as I know, there isn't such options in Mail app. Is there any way that I can modify the way of displaying names in the address field in Mail app?

As far as I can determine, that is only how you see the email address, not how it is sent.
You can set up Prefixes and Suffixes in Contacts using the Add Field submenu of the Card menu:
If you use the Edit Template... command, you can choose to always have the Prefix and Suffix show on new cards.
However, I don't think Mail uses anything but First, Last for addressing emails.
You can override the behavior by manually with:
Prefix First Last Suffix <[email protected]>

I have the silver apple tv. I just purchased a new computer with Windows 7. Is there any way to make the 2 compatable?

I have a silver Apple TV. I just purchased a new PC with Windows 7 on it. Now my apple tv won't communicate with the new PC. Is there any way to fix this or will it only work with systems up to Windows Vista?? Please help.

I seem to be stalking you tonight AC
Or vice versa ;-)
I'm actually quite peeved about all this iCloud stuff, shafting of MobileMe members with no clarity about long term availability of features many pay for above and beyond e-mail/contacts/calendars (my family pack renewed a couple of weeks ago, this is just like the .Mac transition debacle), US only rollouts of redownloading music purchases to iTunes (like the AppleTV global content apartheid we see), continual need to upgrade to latest hardware to run iOS 4/5, older pre Core 2 Duo machine unable to run Lion.......there's a pattern and I'm getting rather fed up with Apple dumping support for things.
Oh and while I'm at it how about the situation that those who've purchased using multiple Apple IDs cannot use the Cloud for more than one ID at a time, and changing disables the ability to change back for 90 days - I'm not one but there are many users who have more than one ID because they've changed e-mail addresses or have devices used by more than one family member.
With all the hoo-hah surrounding Sony getting hacked, I'm not honestly sure I want my stuff in the Cloud for Apple or anyone else to peruse.

When changing "browser.newtab.url" is there any way to prevent the address bar from getting focus?

When I change "browser.newtab.url" to about:home and open a new tab, focus is set to the address bar not the search box on the firefox home page. The same thing happens if i change the url to google.com or another search engine. Is there any way to prevent this from happening.

Custom new Tab has a small bug if the start page is exactly the same as the new tab page. Then the focus of the start page is on the address bar. Just leave the "www." out in the startpage and use "www." in the new tab page then it works perfectly. e.g.
Startpage: google.com
new Tab page : www.google.com
Now the focus of the start page is on the search box.

Is there any way to hide the menu bar?

I've been trying to find out if there's a way to hide the menu bar unless the mouse pointer is pushed up to the upper edge of the screen, I know there are third-party applications that let you do this (Menufela which uses Application Enhancer that I prefer to avoid as it is causes more problems than it solves as far as I'm concerned), I also know that it's possible to write applications that cause the menu bar to exhibit this behaviour while they're focused.
But what I'm looking for is a way to make it behave this way all the time without installing Application Enhancer and having to deal with all the headaches that come with it.

serioustrouble wrote:
It does seem odd that you can't get the menu bar to hide itself though, I seem to recall something about editing certain files in .app directories to make it hide itself on an app-by-app basis.
To hide the menu bar for a single application, you need to modify the Info.plist, as described -> here <-.
This will work on nearly every application. Only on a very few applications it will cause incorrect behaviour, mainly Finder.app.
So a simple way to realise your wishes, is to create an Applescript, that will "hide and unhide" the menubar for a couple of apps at one time.
Here a demonstration example: Choose one or more apps. Menu bar will be hidden/unhidden:
<pre style="
font-family: 'Courier New', Courier;
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 1;
border: 2px solid #1E90FF;
width: 700px; height: 200px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #F5FFFA;
overflow: auto;">
on run
set xyz to choose file default location (path to "apps" as alias) with multiple selections allowed without invisibles
repeat with i in xyz
set appName to name of (get info for i)
if appName ends with ".app" then set proName to text 1 thru -5 of appName
tell application "Finder"
try
if exists (process proName) then
set x to display dialog "Is " & "\"" & proName & "\"" & " still running? If so, please quit it now!" buttons {"Cancel", "Quit it!", "No! Not running!"} default button 2 with icon 0
end if
end try
end tell
try
if button returned of x is "Quit it!" then
tell application appName
quit
end tell
end if
end try
try
((i as Unicode text) & "Contents:Info.plist") as alias
set infoPlist to quoted form of POSIX path of ((i as Unicode text) & "Contents:Info")
try
do shell script "defaults read " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode"
do shell script "defaults delete " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode"
on error
do shell script "defaults write " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode -int 4"
end try
end try
end repeat
end run

Is there any way to remove the see-through grayscreen and the 8-dotted circle whenever mozilla loads a html5(.webm) video?

When i watch an embed .webm in the innate html5 player, every time i try to forward or rewind the movie it puts up the grayscreen+loading icon(even tho the movie was fully preloaded).
Its especially annoying when you need to watch the movie frame by frame and loading grayscreen darkens it so that you can see alot of less details :/
Is there any way of removing that gray whatever?

Your original question was:
When i watch an embed .webm in the innate html5 player, every time i try to forward or rewind the movie it puts up the grayscreen+loading icon(even tho the movie was fully preloaded).
Could you post a link to a web page where you see this problem?
I couldn't find a test page for an embedded HTML5 webm video but I found this link to a webm file:
*http://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.webm
The above webm file link is from this test page:
*http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html
(The embedded video on that page is actually a mp4 file). That test page is linked from the Mozilla Support article, [[Viewing HTML5 audio and video in Firefox]].
I have no problem using the slider to forward or back up video playback in either the embedded HTML5 mp4 video or the webm video linked above.

Is there any way to make the compass heading in Maps more accurate?

I find myself perpetually annoyed by the inaccuracy of the iPhone 5 compass when I'm using Maps. Here are my main issues:
1) When I am at rest (perhaps in a parking lot or driveway) and start directions to an address, it rarely starts the map out pointing in the right direction - making it difficult to tell whether I should turn right or left coming out of the parking lot. Of course, once I start moving I can see whether I'm moving in the right direction (and half the time I'm not - no snarky comments, please). It really annoys me that the internal compass can't figure out and take into account which way I'm pointing when I'm at rest. So I can immediately tell which was to turn.
2) When I am moving, and I tap the purple location icon until it enters compass mode one of two things usually happens - both really annoying. Either it asks me to wave the phone around in a figure-8 (which it does often) or it doesn't set me moving towards the top of the map but instead as much as 45 degrees off from that (sometimes even a full 90 degrees). It's annoying to have to disconnect my phone from power - while I'm driving - and wave it around. And it's super annoying that it almost NEVER points the map in the right direction - nor is the error consistent but often spins around all over the place.
Now, I do recgonize that when my phone is mounted on my dash it is angled slightly towards me and thus not truly pointing straight ahead. I might then expect a slight variation in map heading due to do that - but I would expect it to be consistent, and it is not.
So, is anyone else having these problems and has anyone found a way to improve the compass/map performance?
Thanks.

I think this is an ongoing problem with the iPhone 5. I went to the store in my area and asked them about it. They said I needed to be away from any metal objects. Then asked when I noticed it. I replied while at work, The genius asked if there was anywhere I could stand that wasn't near any metal. I said, not safely.... he gave me a puzzled look, then I told him I work on Tankers at sea.
Fortunately I don't have to depend on the iPhone compass. But it would be nice if it were a working feature and not just a cheesy gimmick.

MFC - is there any way, to make the MFC work on Mac OS X

Hello,
I'm new to programming on Mac OS X. And I just want to know, if there is a way to compile the MFC (M$ Foundation Classes) for OS X?
Or is there any other possibility to use them?
I searched in different Forums, asked Mr Google, but didn't find a good answer.
Well, I didn't find a positive answer...
Maybe someone here, has any idea about it or a hint, that can help. A simple NO is not enough...
THX tobschwe

Well, the last time I looked, the underlying MFC concepts aren't totally foreign to OS X. You could probably (with SUBSTANTIAL effort) write a package that presents the MFC API, but implements it in Cocoa. But that's what you'd have to do, because Cocoa has none of the underlying library functions used by MFC's Windows implementation, and the Cocoa implementations of the underlying concepts and the relationships between them vary in subtle ways from the Windows implementations.
Which is why wise men simply say "NO".

Is there any way to make the text in ios 7 easier on the eye?

My Mom and CoWorker (they are both 50+) both did the upgrade to ios 7 and new coloring and font has been extremely hard on their eyes. Is there anything that can be done to help alleviate it? Their biggest complaint is that it's "TOO white". And just changing the background isn't going to help because there is the same problem in the new Calendar.

I am trying to make the calendar readable also. I am soooo disappointed because making the text bold or bigger and changing the contrast does not affect the calendar. I will not change my mac until this problem is solved!
