Macbook freezes when pressure put on bottom left corner or when picked up

Hi all,
So this started happening a few months ago (it didn't happen often, but now it occurs almost daily). Sometimes when I place my phone, or press down with my hand on the bottom left corner of my macbook it goes black, as if going into sleep mode. Sometimes it wakes up after a few seconds, other times I have to reboot. Additionally, sometimes when I pick up my macbook it freezes and I have to reboot. If I'm in the middle of watching something when it freezes, say on Netflix, then it often makes a strange clicking noise. It kind of sound like the noise at the end of a record. After I reboot it's fine right up until the next freeze. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Macbook Pro freezes when pressure put on bottom right corner

Hello all,
I have a mid 2012 macbook pro. Sometimes when I pick up and move my laptop the computer will freeze and black horizontal bars will come across the screen, and I will need to force shut it down to be able to the use the computer again. The more confusing and helpful symptom I have noticed is when I put any sort of pressure on the bottom left corner of the macbook (below the keyboard, to the left of the trackpad) which aligns to be over the battery, the computer will immediately freeze and the black bars will come across the screen. I took it in to a repair shop and they replaced the hard drive and RAM, neither of which helped the problem, but both were corrupted so needed to be replaced anyways. Upon further inspection, nothing else seemed out of the ordinary. Has anyone else had the same problem or know any possible causes/fixes?

I successfully deleted a user from my MacBook through the Users and Groups window in System Preferences. But now I cannot close the lock in the bottom left corner of the box. When I click on it, I briefly see a word that I think says "reauthorizing" but the word flashes too quickly to tell for sure.

If you are admin.
Try restarting your Mac.

Now that the "Status Bar" is gone, is there a way to hide the "status notification" (bottom left corner) when a page loads? This is on Windows & FF5/6

The so called "Status Bar" has apparently gone away since FF4, I'm now onto 6 I think, on my work machine. But one of the things I liked about the Status Bar was that it could be hidden entirely.
With no Status Bar, now when a page is loaded in FF, you get a floating "Status Notification" in the bottom left corner for a second or two while the page is loading (this even happens in FullScreen F11, something I never had to deal with when the Status Bar existed).
What I want to know is, is there a way to turn off this "Status Notification" entirely? A setting somewhere? Something in About:config? I haven't been able to find anything.

1. Install the addon Status 4 evar, which puts the status text back in the status bar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
2. Hide the status bar by right clicking the refresh button and unchecking "Addon bar"

My macbook freezes when l try to upload photos

my macbook freezies when i try to upload photos to a web site.

When someone complains that their music upload stalls I immediately think of three problems:
1) corrupt song(s)
2) bad cable
3) bad hard drive
The list is actually in reverse order of my expectations. Since you were able to format the drive it obviously hasn't suffered a hard crash but there might be a very large number of bad sectors. Go here to see how to put the iPod into diagnostic mode so you can further check the drive.
If the drive passes muster borrow another cable. And finally, create a playlist and verify that each song is good by playing it. See if it will sync. If it does, add more songs (verified good). Keep repeating.

When i select a pdf file for download in a webpage instead of automatically downloading the file and opening it using adobe acrobat I get a new blank window in the browser and it says done in the bottom left corner

when I select a pdf file within a webpage and click to download instead of getting the "download" window and the file automatically opening after download using adobe reader I get a blank webpage (in the same tab) and in the bottom left corner it says"done". No file is downloaded and if I click "back" I just return to the webpage containing the link.

Aha! The properties for the plugin file nppdf32.dll for Adobe Reader indicate the file is for Adobe Acrobat. This misidentification is then used by SeaMonkey as a label in the helper application list.
Adobe Reader 11.0.3.37: nppdf32.dll has version 11.0.3.37. This is the version in SeaMonkey's plugins folder.
Adobe Acrobat 7.0.8.218: nppdf32.dll has version 7.0.9.50.
As for having both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat on the same PC, this generally works providing Reader is installed AFTER Acrobat. Reader is freeware, and I want to keep it current. Acrobat is purchaseware, and I cannot afford to keep buying upgrades or newer versions.

Maybe you need a new VGA adapter? Can you bring your MacBook and adapter in to an Apple store and have them test your adapter and a known working adapter?

No url is showed at the bottom left corner when my mouse cursor is hover a link

Hello,
When I went hover a link I used to see the url showed on the bottom left corner, but it has been a while that it is not happening anymore.
Is it a bug or that feature was removed?
If it is a bug, how can I fix it?
Thanks

Maybe Status-4-Evar isn't working properly or you have changed its settings.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

I want to know how to get the web addresses to go away that appear in the bottom left corner of the browser every time my mouse goes over a link

Any time that my mouse goes over a link on a web page a little box in the bottom left corner of the browser pops up showing the web address for that link and it is really annoying, especially when i am on facebook because there are so many links on the home page i cant move my mouse anywhere without that box popping up and blocking part of my conversations. I was wondering if there was any way to turn this off. I've checked through the options and to my knowledge there is no way to turn it off. Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem or knew if there was a way to get that box to go away.

Another option would be to use the following extension to push those messages into the status bar. It could be a convenient way to have your messages visible when you want them, but with less distraction.

Since the latest Firefox update, the Personas icon (brown fox) that appeared in the bottom left corner, has disappeared. Where did it go and how do I get it back?

I have a Personas account. The brown fox icon was present in the bottom left corner of my screen before the latest version of Firefox downloaded, but is not there anymore. I have to go to the Personas web site now whenever I want to manage my Persona. Previously, all I had to do was click on the brown fox, and do what I wanted to do from there.
Why has this changed, and how to I put it back to the way it was before?

Try this:

You may need to manually add the icon to your toolbar.

PERSONA FOX PICTURE IS GONE IN 4.0, click on the little fox in the bottom left corner of your browser,

Help. The little picture of the firefox persona is gone from the new 4.0 version. I'm running Win XP (latest service pack). I miss being able to change Persona's at whim. Marie 5/9/11
To undo the design you most recently selected, click on the little fox in the bottom left corner of your browser, (not able to do this with 4.0).

hi!
Turned on the ADD ON BAR and it's still gone. Only thing showing is an X in the left side of the add on bar. I have persona options set to show the little fox.
I was able to drag the little fox icon to the Add on bar and that seems to have worked.
4.0 should have saved the settings when I upgraded from 3....
Thanks.

Any way to resize artboard and have it adjust the coordinates so bottom left corner is 0,0?

That may have been too wordy of a question.
I've noticed that when I resize the artboard of my document the coordinates don't update with it. 0,0 which for me is always good in the bottom left corner now becomes some spot in the region. The bottom left corner becomes -344,-555. This doesn't work for me.
So far when I'm faced with this I just make a new document with the new size I want, but it gets old.

Since Ai is (or rather was) based on the page description language Postscript, it started with the convention from math where the 0,0 is the lower left corner of the X-Y quadrant system to keep both numbers positive.
Thanks for the explanation
Which is why X being on the L/R axis is always on the left corner anyway... And Y being on the Top to Bottom is always on the bottom...PIA
But thanks again...

I am trying to click on a 'zoom' button to enlarge a table or photo but nothing happens other than "javascript:void(null)" appearing in bottom left corner of Firefox window. How can I correct this?

There are a few tables and photos on the left that I need to zoom into but nothing happens. All I get is the text "javascript:void(null)" in the bottom left corner of my Firefox window.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
