Mission Control/ Expose issue with stacked pages hard to view. Please help

Is it just me or is there a real issue with the way Mission Control/ Expose displays these stacked windows? For instance, I had about 6 finder windows open, showing 6 different folders on my Desktop. If I then use Mission Control to quickly access a particular folder, it displays all my finder windows together, stacked up on one another and this makes it almost impossible to view which particular folder i want. It doesnt have the folder names displayed so this is seriuosly time consuming now. Is this something im doing wrong, or is it a valid issue?
many thanks

If you are just trying to see all the Finder windows which are available, just invoke App expose. I use a 4 finger swipe down. If you are in finder, just swipe. If you are in another application, hover your mouse over the Finder icon in the dock and swipe. All the windows are easy to see.
(You can, of course, do this with any application, not just the Finder.)

  • Mission Control launch issue with Mountain Island

    I love the OS X Mountain Lion, but ever since I downloaded it, my 'mission control' freezes up when my computer wakes up from sleep mode.  The only fix I have found is to restart my i-mac everyday.  Is there another fix or reason for this?

    Often, stuff like this is caused by third party software conflicts.
    Does this behavior persist:
    1) For a different user, e.g., Guest?
    2) In Safe Mode?

Thank you. I want my power manageent system back. 

    You should check your startup drive as a starting point, if programs are crashing regularly. That's obviously not "normal." Run +Repair Disk Permissions+ in Disk Utility while started up normally. Then, start up from another disc and run Disk Utility to use the +Repair Disk+ on the startup drive, to look for disk directory issues (you can startup from the Mac OS X installation disc to run Disk Utility).
    When this happens, Force Quit doesn't do anything. Any other options?
    You can start the Activity Monitor program and quit processes that look relevant to the app. Sometimes, force quit does not work to quit an app because an underlying process keeps running. Sometimes, the Mac is not able to restart or shutdown normally because an app refuses to quit, due to this problem. It is often difficult to know if you should kill a process, so after doing it to make an app quit, it would be a good idea to restart.

  • HT4199 Hello Im have issues with my Face time app. Please help.

    When loading Facetime I am prompted with a message that reads....The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later....
    Thus, I have tried to make a new account and I'm still unable to create one.

    This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
    Step 1
    Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Step 2
    Sign out of iMessage on all your Apple devices. Log out and log back in. Try again to sign in.
    Step 3
    Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
    Step 4
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ About This Mac
    Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
    Step 5
    Take the steps suggested in this support article. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
    Step 6
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If the box marked SOCKS Proxy is checked, uncheck it. You don’t need to change any other settings in the window. Click OK and then Apply. Test.
    The result may be that you can't connect to the Internet at all. Revert the change if that happens, or if iMessage still doesn't work. Remember that you must Apply any changes you make in the preference pane before they take effect.
    Step 7
    Select from the menu bar
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
    and click
    Block all sites from storing information on this computer
    Close the preference pane.
    Step 8
    Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Log out and log back in.
    Step 9
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
    Step 10
    Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
    If iMessage worked in safe mode, but didn't work when you booted out of safe mode, stop here and post your results.
    Step 11
    Reset the NVRAM.
    Step 12
    Reinstall OS X.
    Step 13
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support.

    My Dear Friend...
    Typical Steps for refreshing your understanding :
    1. Transfer Business Content Datasources 2LIS_03_BX , 2LIS_03_BF, AND 2LIS_03_UM in RSA5.
    2. Go to Transaction LBWE, Activate Datasources 2LIS_03_BF, AND 2LIS_03_UM.
    3. Go to Transaction MCB_ select SAP BW usage 'Standard' Radio button.
    4. Save it.
    5. Go to Transaction MCNB, enter name of run ‘Stock_init’. Enter Termination date in future. Enter Datasource as 2LIS_03_BX.
    6. Execute the initialization.
    7. Entries can be found in SETUP Table MC03BFSETUP & MC03BFSETUP.
    8. Run SETUP for 2LIS_03_BF, AND 2LIS_03_UM using TCodes OLI1BW and OLIZBW respectively.
    ALWAYS LOAD in order as BX datasource first then BF datasource and then UM datasource in cube
    9. Run the extraction for 2LIS_03_BX in BW.
    10. Compress the request with ‘No Marker Update’ NOT SET i.e. unticked or unchecked.
    11. Run the extraction for 2LIS_03_BF in BW.
    12. Compress the request with ‘No Marker Update’ SET i.e. ticked or checked.

    Steps 1 and 2 shall be executed in Development and transported to production and step 3 onward should be carried out in Production itself with posting Block.
    And about Reconcilitation of data ...Count the number of records in R/3 in particular table and check with BW is its matching...When you request in Detail Tab you can find the number of records...
    Then check if the balances are matching in R/3 and BW...saying for ex: Check opening Stock for today in both the systems...
    If you follow the process properly I dont think you will face any issues...I havent ever seen any complication in Inventory loading...Dont worry...Just follow the typical LO Extraction steps...All Good
    Regards...

  • Issues with restarting after a program crash- please help

    Two questions regarding restarting after a program has crashed on Leopard.
    1. I had an issue where Parallels crashed and I had to restart. When restarting, the dock closes and it goes to a point where there is a circle timer. This does not stop and an error comes up stating that I need to hit the power button. Is this "normal" after a program crash and restarting? On a side note, I couldn't close the program with Force Quit. This seems to be happening often.
    2. How often does it occur for you where a program will not close with Force Quit? I've had Parallels crash and some other programs. When this happens, Force Quit doesn't do anything. Any other options?
    Thanks for your help.

    You should check your startup drive as a starting point, if programs are crashing regularly. That's obviously not "normal." Run +Repair Disk Permissions+ in Disk Utility while started up normally. Then, start up from another disc and run Disk Utility to use the +Repair Disk+ on the startup drive, to look for disk directory issues (you can startup from the Mac OS X installation disc to run Disk Utility).

  • Issues with updating apps on ONE iMac - please help!

    Hello everyone
    I use an iMac at home and at work.  At work, firewalls or similar have been stopping my apps being updated and also accessing the itunes store
    I brought the iMac home at the weekend so I could bring everything up to date.
    However, the itunes stuff downloaded immediately. Two apps from teh store updated quickly too.
    However 6 other apps would not update - I kept getting a null message.
    After a few attempts I have been getting teh following message for all six apps. "The product file could not be verified It may be damaged or was not signed"  I have tried updating all and doing them individually.  I even tried deleting one app completely to reinstall but the same message came up everytime.
    The apps range from Final Cut Pro X to Angry birds so it's not like they even just apple ones.
    Anyone able to help me?
    Thank you
    Chris

    "The product file could not be verified It may be damaged or was not signed"
    OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo) may help Chris. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try updating your apps.
    Make sure you are using the same Apple ID for updating that you used to them with.
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.7.4 on your iMac.
    I even tried deleting one app completely to reinstall but the same message came up everytime.
    If you just dragged the app to the Trash, that does not remove all the associated files.

  • Color Banding issue with FCP and Color...PLEASE HELP!!

    Ok so heres whats going on and i'm hoping some can help me out here cause i'm totally lost!
    So we have a film shot on HDV. The scenes are mostly dark and well lit. Everything in the FCP timeline looks great (little noisy but great). We brought it over the color and did our color grading and corrections. Once we returned back to FCP, we started seeing some major color banding. We then applied the neatvideo plug-in with helps with noise but it made it far worse.
    We are rendering in 10bit but how can we remove this banding!!
    Thanks again for the help!

    Yeah, you can't critically judge video quality on computer displays. They won't show you an accurate image. Unfortunately, there is no way to send a signal to a video display (HDTV, broadcast monitor) for this purpose from an imac.

  • HT1414 Good morning, I have an issue with my Iphone 4s, could you please help me?

    My IPhone 4s is losing battery at an alarming rate, now it is getting very HOT while it is turned on and even shuts itself off because it is getting too hot?

    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Issues with my MacBook's display. Please help!

    Hi all, I have a mid-2009 MacBook 13" and the display keeps randomly turning itself right down and then off completely. As it is the 2009 model I do not have the option to select/deselect auto-brightness as everybody keeps telling me it's to do with this. Does anybody else know how to rectify this at all? I've heard it's quite common and to be fair, it's a tad irritating when I'm trying to watch something online. Thanks in advance!

  • E2000 NAT issues with my xbox. ive tried everything please help!

    ive tried the dmz port range triggering, forwarding. ive done it all please help me all i want to do is a play  little online.

    what is the modem that you are using? some internet provider use a modem/router instead of a 'modem only' device.
    if it is a modem/router they  have NAT enabled, and this would cause Double NAT on the modem and on the linksys router, which would cause the port forwarding setup not to work.
    if that is the case you need to ask your provider to set your modem/router to bridge mode or work as modem only. when that is done, then you can proceed to port forwarding by following the instructions here

    I am not sure if this is the same issue but there was a bug that caused small exchange numbers to become negative which was resolved in one of the 11.1.1.3 patches, it is worth logging into My Oracle Support and having a look at the patches available.
    9588147 – In exchange rates table, entering very small values become negative after you save the data forms. For example, 0.000071 becomes –7.1E-5 after you save the exchange rate.
