Lost Apple web link on dock.

Would anyone happen to know how I can restore the Apple-Mac OS X icon which looks like a Spring next to the Trash. I was resizing a window next to the dock when, poof, the icon disappeared. Where in the world do you find the Spring looking thing for Apple-Mac OS X?

I agree with Templeton Peck. That link is to the marketing website for apple. I don't see why you'd want it.
If you really want it, go to http://www.apple.com/macosx then drag the icon on the left of the address bar into the dock.
Good luck!

OS X: Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password - Apple Support
Or use Terminal app found in Utilities
With 10.8 or 10.9 restart holding the Command and R keys, then from the drop down
of actions, choose Terminal. When Terminal opens type:
resetpassword
and press enter.
You will get a reset password window from which you can select the user you want to reset, the admin account in your case. Type a new password twice, do not do anything with the hint box. Click Save, then confirm you want to do this reset. Then click apply to the user's home directory, and click the apple in the left corner, and choose Restart.

Ibooks author web links lost when preview to iPad

Created a long book with ibooks author including links to web sites. Works fine on Mac version but when I open the book on iPad ibooks, web links are lost and default to apple web site. What do I do to retain links for iPad version of ibooks?

No, catually I can't. I don't see my iPad nor my iPhone either in Image Capture, iPhoto, iTunes. They are nowhere. I even tried 3 different dock-USB cables. The cables are ok and I can charge the devices. But they won't be recognized by all the apps. This never happened before. The only thing that has changed recently is that I installed OSX Lion. Any connection ? What happened????

When opening Apple Mail links 2 Firefox Windows Open, The top one is blank and the one behind it contains the web link page???

Whether with previous version of Firefox, or new one (3.6.4), when I open an Apple Mail link, Firefox opens 2 windows. Top window is blank, window behind it contains web page for mail link that I hit. I can't find anything in preferences of mail or Firefox to resolve this issue.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

I have discovered one solutionto my problem, which is not really convenient and is something I don't have to do with Safari 5 -- If I have Firefox open, but not a window open, then when I click on an Apple Mail link, only 1 window opens. But I don't always want to have my browser open, so this is kinda annoying. I'd rather not use Safari -- Firefox is so much better. Please fix this! Thanks.

Apple Magic Mouse responds but does not want to click to web links, but wants to give me option to open, save, etc? Keep trying by clicking again and again, finally it will let me link

Apple Magic Mouse responds but does not want to click to web links, but gives options instead, go back, look up, save, etc? Changed batteries but does not solve the mouse problem. I click all over the page and it continues to provide options and link is indicated in blue, but have to keep trying until it finally let me continue.

Are you sure you are clicking on the left side of the mouse, rather than somewhere in the middle (and probably closer to the right side)?

Can no longer view videos on Apple web site

I'd like to watch the new iPad videos on Apple's web site but my iMac no longer loads them. I can view You Tube videos, movies, Quicktime etc. But on the Apple web site the video never loads. Any ideas why this might be? OSX 10.7.3 3.06 GHz Core Duo, 4G RAM.

The following only applies to those running Tiger or Leopard:
If you are experiencing trouble viewing QuickTime movies with QuickTime Player or the QuickTime browser-plug-in follow the steps in the link below to ensure that QuickTime is properly installed on your Mac
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/troubleshooting/
If you having problems watching WWDC Keynotes, tutorials or Trailers on the Apple website, check your Quicktime Player 7 settings in System Preferences:
Under Streaming, set for Automatic, enable Instant On and Play Immediately.
Under Advanced, click Mime Settings and ensure that Streaming (both kinds) are enabled.
Note that if you are running Snow Leopard you should be using Quicktime Player 7 and not Quicktime 10. Snow Leopard does not have a QuickTime System Preference pane. No MIME Settings options. No streaming settings. If a User has migrated from 10.5.8 then those settings have moved over (but no changes can be made). QuickTime Player 7 is in your Applications/Utilities folder (if you've got it installed). If not you can install it from the Snow Leopard DVD (Optional Installs).

Help! How to e-mail a PDF (from Pages) with active web links!

I have been working on this for hours without any success! I would be so grateful for a brainy Apple wiz to help me out. I am creating a Pages document that has active web links in it. My goal is to e-mail my document with the active web links in it.
So - If I export my Pages doc as a PDF to my desktop, the links work great! However - the moment I put that PDF into an email and send it the links become inactive. Is there any way to create a Pages document with web links > Export it as a PDF > Then mail with active (clickable) links? I have tried many times without success.
If the answer to my question is no, does anyone have a tip for where I can create a PDF and mail it with active links? Will any of the Adobe programs work for this type of thing?
Thanks so much!!
Kristen

Using Pages '09 v4.2.
I just tested this. Assumption: You have the “Windows friendly attachments” checked in the attachments panel.
Your Pages document is open. The web links are active. You want to get it into Mail.
From the Pages menu bar, choose Share > Send Via Mail > PDF.
Mail will open with a compose window. Your PDF will be attached as a full view document. You see the links present in the PDF.
Now, click near the web links. This shows your PDF in blue. Now right-button click, and choose View as Icon from the pop-up panel.
Now mail it to yourself on another account that Mail can open.
You will see the web links in the PDF.
Right-button click on a link and from the pop-up menu, choose Open with Safari.
If you chose Quick Look, it would pop open the PDF and offer to open it further in your default PDF viewer. In my case, it is Adobe Reader.
If Reader opens this PDF from the Mail attachment, the web links remain active.
Does this solve your issue?

Hello, I have includes a Web link in an image. When I convert the document in PDF, the link remains inactive. Could use me? Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you.

No version of Pages will allow images to be links. We always got around this by bracketting the image with text and making the link in that.
Pages 5 has lost the ability to have cross links in pdfs and seems to have a bug that disables any links after the first page.

I have Snow Leopard, Quick Time X and Quick Time 7.6.3 installed on my system.
I can not see the video on Apple Web Site and get the message: "QuickTime required. Free download" and a link to download QuckTime
Why? What?

I can not see the video on Apple Web Site
Which one? Can you post a link of said video? Apple has loads of videos on their website.
Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.

Apple Web Site Default Icon, Gone..

Hi There,
I seem to have tossed my Apple Web Site Default Icon..
I remember seeing the puff of smoke which means I moved it a little to far, and now I'd like to get it back.
You know the one, it looks like an A, or an @ on a spring or something..
Any help would be great..
Thanks,
Eric

Hi Eric
you can make a new one for any website, not just Apple's....while you're on the webpage you want, click & drag the icon in the address to the dock, the area near the trash where your original one was.
These 'web internet locations' can also be dragged to the desktop, or any folder you want.

Apple web site crashes safari on ipad

I Have tried to get to the apple web site today and every time I try to access it safari crashes. I can not understand how apples own web site can crash its browser on iPad. ApparentLynn chrome does not have this issue

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > Safari then tap to delete history, cookies, and data then try Safari.
* No data is lost due to a reset

How do I organise photos in my shared photo stream (public web link)

I have created a shared photo stream as a public web link and sent the link to some peopls to view it. I intend adding photos to it over time, for them to see.
When I (or they) look at the photostream via the web site link, the photos have automatically been arranged, ordered and cropped in not necessaroily the way I would want. Is there a way I can change the layout that these photos are presented in ?
Thanks for any ideas.

You are welcome!
That is a shame that we can't change the layout. Oh well!
I am hoping for future improvements You may want to send a feature request to Apple - the more, the merrier!

TS3899 Unable to access web link within a received emails, how to correct?

Add Non-Standard Web Link in Mac Mail

Does anyone know how to add a non-standard web link? The add link dialog box does not like my url.
I need to add a link like this: http://someserver100/index.html.
It disables the "OK" button as soon as I add the "100" after "someserver".
Prior to the Leopard upgrade I never had a problem doing this. Now it seems that Mail is trying to be too clever. Please help, this is an important business need for me to be able to send links like this.

I didn't originally go deep into detail as not to bore, but maybe the details will make the difference.
I am a web developer. I have a client that I vpn into to make web updates. The server that I work on is a testing / development server, not the outside world facing production server. The server is not viewable via a domain name. So I can not get to it by typing www.domainname.com. Instead, the client's IT guys have a host name set up for the server that I need to use due to some of the back end technology that serves the pages.
The server name is "development100".
In order for me to view pages on this server, I had to make an entry in my host file so my browser would know what ip address "development100" is associated with. That way whenever I type "http://develoment100" into my browser's url bar to proof my web work it would resolve me to the testing / development server.
Now, once my changes are done and posted, I need to send a notification email to the IT staff that servers two purposes. First, it gives them an exact url laundry list of what files have have updated. Second, it gives them a link to click for each item that will allow them to proof that html, jpeg, etc.
A typical item in this list would like like this: http://development100/index.html
That link should send them directly to the index page on the server for example. I have be using this system of building the notification emails with these links for over five years and prior to upgrading to Leopard, it always worked.
Now, if I try to "Add Link" and type "http://development100/index.html" in the dialog box. The "OK" button will become disabled as soon as I key in the first number in that link.
If I don't "Add Link" and just key "http://development100/index.html" into the body of the email the link will cut off at the first number as well. So the link will look like this: "http://development"
Sorry for the long explanation, but I think that it is necessary. The answer may just be that Apple is trying to verify / qualify links automatically and wont let numbers go in the link name without a .com / suffix. Thanks for the help.

Web link in signature's

Is there any way to add a hyper link/web link to signatures?
Cheers, Slowstdy

As regards the problem with inserting a link into a signature, the work around you've suggested might be one answer. However, the Apple mail application seems to promise something more than that.
On the menu bar go to "Mail," then "Preferences," then "Signatures" and then fill in the text box with whatever you want to appear as your signature. If you highlight the part of that text that you want to hyperlink and then click on it a menu will appear. Sixth from the bottom of that pop-up menu is a command labeled "link" which in turn leads to a command labeled "Add."
Unfortunately, that's where the good news ends. That sequence of steps, if done in the message portion of any e-mail, will result in a cool little pop up window that allows you to specify a web address. However, in the "Signatures" text box the "link" command fails to invoke the pop up window. Evidently in this context the feature is not properly implemented.
My guess is that this is an issue Apple will need to address in an upcoming fix.
