Issue w/ Spaces - Applications moving from screen to screen

Have been using that laptop for 2 months now - love it. Spaces is a very nifty feature (have it set it up on 4 screens). While I know how to navigate between spaces (using control+arrow for example), very often, my apps are moving from one space to the other.
While I went into System Preferences to assign specific apps to a specific space, I often have to drag back apps into their original space. That tends to happen quite often when I have several apps from Office open (I usually have entourage, excel and powerpoint open at the same time, each in its own space).
Am I doing something wrong. i really love Spaces but that issue is really counter-productive and right down annoying.
Thanks for your help!

  • Spaces Application Assignments from 10.6 transferred to 10.7?

    I just upgraded to Lion with the release yesterday, and I noticed that when I'm using mission control, my spaces application assignments were still active from 10.6 (As in, chrome ALWAYS appears in desktop 2).
    Mission control is a little more abstract than spaces was and I don't want these application assignments anymore, but theres no way to turn them off in system preferences on 10.7
    Does anyone have any ideas how I can turn them off?

    If I understand you correctly you should be able to right-click the icon on the dock when it is open and go "Options" and there you should find an option to lock to that space, have open in all spaces, or unlock from all spaces.

  • Issue In Providing 255 Charcters From The Selection Screen Select-Option

    Dear Guru,
    I am searching for table field with having length = 255 character.
    which i want to use in select-option for proving data from the selection screen.
    I have found the table myhlp and it associated field allvals which is having length = 255.
    I am using it as below in my selection screen for the value to be provided 255 character long.
    SELECTION-SCREEN : BEGIN OF BLOCK b3 WITH FRAME TITLE text-003.
    SELECT-OPTIONS   : s_mlbody FOR myhlp-allvals  NO INTERVALS.
    SELECTION-SCREEN : END OF BLOCK b3.
    Now when i am going for the multiple selection option --> It is providing me the Multiple selection popup and giving me the provision of provide multiple line .
    But the issue is that --> For a particular single value line in the popup i am able to enter only 45 charcters not 255 character.
    But i need to put 255 charcter for particular line in a single value..
    Please give me some guideline how resolve this or any other alternative way of reading the 255 charcter from the selection screen
    Thanks & regards

    Hi,
         As said by A@s selction screen with table control will be a good option.
    design a custom screen with SUBSCREEN as screeen attribute using tcode se51.
    For table control sample - go through Tcode ABAPDOCU - abap user dialogs-screens-complex screen- table control
    Try Following,
    REPORT Zsample .
    controls: tc type tableview using screen 200.
    parameters: p_user type myhlp-username.
    data: begin of itab occurs 50,
          field1(255) type c,
          end of itab.
    data: i_out type standard table of myhlp.
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF TABBED BLOCK MAX FOR 22 LINES.
    SELECTION-SCREEN TAB (25) TABS1 USER-COMMAND UCOMM1
             DEFAULT SCREEN 200.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK MAX.
    start-of-selection.
    select * from myhlp into table i_out for all entries in itab
              where username eq p_user
                    and allvals = itab-field1.

  • Music synching issue on iPOD Touch: moving from XP to W7 computer.

    Moving from XP to W7 computer and when synching music, all playlists on iPOD are there, but empty (no songs).  However, when I expand twistie in iTunes for my device all playlists and songs appear there.  Tried different synch options but does not fix issue.  Resynching with old XP machine reloads playlists.  Any ideas on how to fix on W7 machine? 

    Thanks for suggestion...did restore, but still no Playlists items (Playlists are there but when I access they are all empty/blank)...further checking shows all the songs are listed in the Artists, Songs and Albums listings, but Playlists themselves are blank (on iPod Touch).  Playlists on computer do show songs - still not sure why synching iPod lists are still blank after restore and/or synch??    

  • Space. Moving from iPhoto to photo stream...

    I am trying to free up room on my iPhone on my iMac. I am creating new photo streams, for example "January 2014-June 2014" and moving all iPhoto pictures to the new stream. My plan is to then delete them off iPhoto, freeing up space.  Is this a good solution?? Will those photos remain in my new iCloud photo stream I have created until I delete them off?? I'm able to view them on my iMac and my iPhone under photo streams, I am just nervous to delete from my iPhoto until I have confirmation that this plan is good and will work!!

    FYI...New changes are coming.

  • Moving from iPhoto to Aperture with limited drive space

    My biggest concern is the lack of space on my MacBook Air.
    I have already purchased and download Aperture.
    In the Import window I see the "move files" radiobutton and the "copy files" radiobutton under the "Store Files:" dropdown,  but they are disabled.
    As I understand if I just import my IPhoto Library, it will duplicate the files into the Aperture Library, and that wont work since my current library (iPhoto) is way bigger than my freespace in disk.
    Buying external drive is not an option now since I im saving to buy a NAS that will solve my space problems in the near future.
    What i would like to achieve is just to move all my iPhoto Library to Aperture Library. I wont use iPhoto anymore.
    Can someone help me with this? Im really looking forward to use Aperture....

    Hello Richieto,
    I have already purchased and download Aperture.
    In the Import window I see the "move files" radiobutton and the "copy files" radiobutton under the "Store Files:" dropdown,  but they are disabled.What i would like to achieve is just to move all my iPhoto Library to Aperture Library. I wont use iPhoto anymore.
    Set the "storeFiles" selector to "in their current location".
    Have you seen this support article. Moving from iPhoto to Aperture - How to move http://www.apple.com/aperture/iphoto-to-aperture/how.html
    If you follow these instructions, you will import your iPhoto Library by referencing - that means, all images remain in your iPhoto library; your iPhoto Library will remain unchanged, but Aperture references the files in in the iPhoto Library. This will save disk space; your images will be stored only once: Set the "Store Files" selector to "in their current location".
    If you decide to do it this way, make sure you have a working backup of your iPhoto library. Also remember at all times that your master image files now are managed independently by two applications, that do know nothing of what the other app does and are not synchronized. So you must not move the iPhoto library, and you must not delete any images that are shared by both applications. Other than that this way to import from iPhoto will be the best deal, if you need to be frugal with disk space.
    What i would like to achieve is just to move all my iPhoto Library to Aperture Library. I wont use iPhoto anymore.
    Once you are happy with  the way Aperture handles the images you can copy your iPhoto library to a backup location and consolidate the master image files (File -> consolidate) by moving them from your iPhoto Library into the Aperture Library. This will delete them from iPhoto and store them inside the Aperture Library package. Then delete the iPhoto Library after testing that the consolidation was successful.
    I im saving to buy a NAS that will solve my space problems in the near future.
    Just a caution - you should not use the NAS to store the Aperture library - an Aperture library needs to bestored on a local volume formatted MacOS X extended.

  • Cannot move applications to previous pages from iPhone home screen

    This is a recent issue that I just noticed today. When I press and hold on an app from my iPhone home screen, I can move it around within its own page, or move it to succeeding pages. However, the phone will not allow me to move the app to a PREVIOUS page! It quickly tries to move to the the left, until it resets itself on the current page its on. My only way around this is to synch the apps from iTunes. Has anyone else been experiencing this bug?

    Thanks for the advice, but this still does not work. Again, I've had no problems moving apps between home screen pages until now. This seems to have occurred right after downloading an app from the app store today. I'm running OS 3.1.2, and the phone will literally "pull back" an app I'm trying to move to a previous page, whether I move it to any previous page (currently using four pages of apps at the moment). It will let me move an app to a subsequent page, but then it's stuck there (i.e. it cannot be moved back to the page I moved it from). The only way to move it back is through iTunes. What the heck is going on here?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone can help me. I have a MacBook Pro, it has came up saying I need to free up space on the disk as it full every time it starts up, so I log in and no icons or applications show up on the screen just my background wallpaper, the only thing I can do is the force quit keyboard shortcut but there is nothing to quit, I have tried to start up in safe mode but again there is no icons in the desktop,
    I have my disks that came with my laptop I have went into disk utility to repair disk and I still seem to have the same problem .. No icons or apps or anything lol just the cursor I can only shut down the laptop via power but and the press shut down.
    Please help I am going out my mind with this thing :(
    Thanks x jade

    This can be used to boot the machine and delelte enough files to get it to boot normally.
    .Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    Read about storage drive so you can store your extra stuff.

  • Yoga 2 Pro issues: display flashing, no recovery from power saving, blue screens

    I believe I've narrowed down a problem with the machine not coming out of sleep mode, and maybe blue screening. There is a new version of virtualbox that I've installed and it is suppose to help.
    Issues still present
    1) I have found the screen to become corrupted where it flashes on and off. I end up doing a hard reboot to fix the issue temporarily.
    2) Sometimes (when virtualbox isn't running), the display goes into powersaving mode and doesn't recover. I had this issue with Linux installed (kubuntu 13.10) as well as with windows 8.1.
    3) Rare screen corruption where the display jumps for a split second and then goes back to normal. This is very rare. It may happen 3-4 times a day but I use this system for development so this is scary and unacceptable.
    Any input would be appreciated!
    How I reinstalled Windows 8.1:
    Installed windows 8 from UEFI media (with an old/supported wifi USB), updated, installed 8.1 upgrade, then installed drivers
    Drivers installed:
    bt, dptf, tp, emw
    The default Windows 8.1 drivers included the full intel driver set. I've considered upgrading, but these issues were present before I reinstalled Windows 8.1 w/ UEFI media and I had the full driver set from the lenovo website installed at the time.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I spoke with support for quite a while today.
    It is not sleep mode that is causing the machine to become unresponsive. If you disable "turn the display off after", then it will go to sleep like normal. If you have "turn the display off" enabled, it crashes and neither goes to sleep, nor allows the display to turn back on.
    If I close the lid it goes to sleep, and opening the lid wakes the machine up again.
    I installed the chipset driver from the support website, rebooted, and reenabled screen blanking in power settings.
    I have been unable to get the machine not to wake after screen blanking and sleeping. I set it to 1m blank and 2m sleep and it goes blank and recovers if I hit a key. If you let it go 2m, it sleeps and recovers as intended. I'm very releaved as I did NOT want to return this.
    The power management issue seems to be resolved by reinstalling the chipset driver from the website.
    I'm going to see if I still have the display flashing issues anymore. Perhaps it is solved as well!!
    Thanks Lenovo!
    EDIT: I spoke too soon!! It just did it again.

  • UTF issue when moving from cf5 to cfmx7

    It's been long overdue so am moving from CF5 to cfmx7 on my hosting account.
    The issue is that my hosting account has disabled cfcontent.
    I am getting gibberish outputting utf data from my database. It works fine on cf5 but on cfmx7 I read someplace that you have to use cfcontent to output utf-8 correctly.
    Is there any work around without having to use cfcontent?
    I tried using cfprocessingdirective and cfheader tags to show utf but it didn't work. Any pointers or suggestions appreciated.
    Best Regards
    Sanman

    ok, since it's "N" you should be good to go with transferring the data (it's
    actually pretty simple). in cf5, write a page that does a simple query against
    the table(s) containing your data, i guess just select TOP 100 or so rows with
    the PK & the nText columns. simply output that query using a delimiter that you
    can parse easily (commas between columns & quotes for the nText would be my
    default choices). have a look at the output to make sure it's readable. if all's
    well, on the cf7 (or whatever) box do a cfhttp call to that cf5 page & dump out
    the cfhttp.fileContent or result if you use that. if it's still readable, then
    you can do the real xfer by:
    - backing up the original table
    - double checking that the backup is ok
    - triple checking that the backup is ok
    - adding another table w/just PK & nText columns
    - filling that with the properly encoded data
    - then do a join UPDATE against the old table
