Mail appears open in dock but nothing on screen! Help!
I have this bizarre problem where i go to open my mail on my imac, i click the app in the dock, it bounces once, then the black arrow next to it appears. But nothing appears on screen. No windows, no error messages, nothing. But i do get the Mail bar at the top of the screen with 'File', 'Edit','View' etc etc.
This has never happened before. I have tried opening Mail from the App folder, restarted my computer 6 times, repaired disk permissions, but still no joy.
Anyone have any idea of what may be the problem may be, would be very much appreciated.
Thankyou
Matt
Ok try the "Rebuild" command under the "Mailbox" menu. Failing this it may be a good idea to backup your mailboxes, reinstall Mail from your system disk, update and re-import your mailboxes.
Let me know how it goes

Firefox appears in menu bar but nothing else does. Is Safari overriding Firefox somehow?
Hi,
I'm going to assume you don't have AIR installed at this point. Let's try these steps:
1. Download the latest AIR runtime
2. Open a terminal window (Application/Utilities)
3. Mount the AIR dmg
4. Execute the following command: sudo /Volumes/Adobe\ AIR/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer -silent -eulaAccepted
5. Enter your password
That should get AIR installed, from there you should be able to get Muse installed.

Why do some Apps(programs) appear in my dock, but not in my launch pad?
I recently downloaded Open Office and Adobe Photo Shop 12 . Photo shop appears in both my dock and launch pad. However Appace Open Office just appears in my dock, but not my launch pad, and also the open office little disk or cd reader icon (white 3d rectangle with image of black slot in front) appears on the right side of my screen. I can't eject it because I get a popup that says it is being used by "Open Office" and I have to quit the application to eject it. My question is if I quit the application using "Command" Q and then eject "Open Office" will I loose open office and have to downlad it again?
I think I answere my question.
I clicked on the Open Office Icon in my dock, had it go to "Finder" then ejected the "Open Office" disck reader icon and it went away from my screen.
I then went to "Finder" and opened it up and Lo and Behold "Open Office" disappeared from there too. Boy that sure is crappy.
So I downloaded it again.
Is there anyway to clean up the desktop so I don't have those silly images hanging around?There have always, well for the past few years, written installers that just create a mess. All installed applications should appear in Finder, Applications. Not all of those will appear in Launchpad. When you encounter one that does not appear in the correct way, all you can do is manually move things around so it is consistent with the way apps should work.

Quit your browsers.
Open the Finder.

Typs this exactly as you see it here: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
Relaunch either Firefox or Safarai and try downloading a PDF document. -

Since updating to iOS 6, my 4th gen iPod touch, and my 3rd gen iPad has sound in and out. Sometimes it's on, and then all of a sudden, no sound. I've tried everything from restarting to fully resetting each one starting fresh, but nothing. Please help.

My g5 2ghz tower turns on but nothing on screen
my g5 2ghz tower turns on but nothing on screen. I've tried changing video card and still turns on but monitor is black saying that there's no signal.
Hmmm, assuming both video cards aren't bad, then it must be a logic board problem.
Does hold alt, option or shift key at bootup show anything?
