My cursor is a notepad symbol, instead of the usual arrow. Any ideas?

The cursor has a notepad floating with it wherever I move it. The cursor usually is an arrow, or a hand when over a link. The notepad is annoying. Any ideas?

* Is this all the time with all programs?
Then it is your computers mouse / pointer settings.
* Is this happen '''only''' in the Firefox window?
It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
there for. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
'''''Windows > Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.'''''
Go thru the list and use a web search to check any that you don't
know what they are.

I have been having issues with my iCloud email on my iMac. For some time period, everyday, it won't reload and often shows symbols instead of letters for the text. Any ideas how to solve?

All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

TS2755 why is Messages now showing phone numbers instead of contact names. any ideas?

why is Messages now showing phone numbers instead of contact names. any ideas?

Check to see if you have contacts in your Contacts app. This is something that can happen sometimes, and is usually cured by resetting the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. No data will be lost.

Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer was running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier and you reach the third set of steps, insert a Mac OS X install disk.

Why does the iTunes 10.4.1 update take me to Apple's download webpage instead of the usual Safari/Quicktime dialog box?

Why does the iTunes 10.4.1 update take me to to Apple's download webpage (to download a full version of iTunes) instead of the usual Safari/Quicktime pop-up/dialog box where I usually perform the updates?

iTunes 10.4 and Safari 5.1 contain more than 'just' the OSX Lion-release but stability and security improvements as well.
For example, here is http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070 what the Safari 5.1 contains.
In here http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/ I can't find an "end-date" for the download of the Lion installer.
Nonetheless, personaly I would download the Lion installer and then copy it (from your Apllications folder) to a secure place (backup harddisk, external hardisk etc.).
When your IT gives it a go you can then use te Lion installer from inside the Applications folder, but I would also say to make a bootable clone of your current OSX Snow Leopard before starting the Lion installation.

Safari status bar disappears. I have tried clicking on show status bar and it will only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen. I can not minimize the open page only full screen or close the browser. Any idea how the rectify this

Safari status bar disappears. I have tried clicking on show status bar, under the View tab and it will only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen. I can not minimize the open page, only full screen or close the browser. Any idea how the rectify this issue?

One enters and exits full-screen with control+command+F keys. This is on the View menu in Safari. Optionally, the green traffic light in your browser title bar, if you roll over it, has the full-screen control it it. While in full-screen mode with Safari, moving your mouse pointer virtually up, and off-screen reveals the Safari title bar again, and you can click the green traffic light to exit full-screen mode.
You can hide/show the status bar by simply typing command+/. This too, is on the Safari View menu. and in 10.10.1 — it works reliably for me.

I just turned on iTunes on my Mac and suddenly instead of the usual song list there's a window with what looks like a screensaver graphic. Anyone know how to get rid of this permanently? Thanks.

Since upgrade of IOS, my once dependable camera connection kit will only import landscape photos from my Sony Alpha DSLR, but red exclaimation symbol only for portrait format. Any ideas why?
I am using an ipad2 with the latest operating system upgrade. My problems started with the upgrade to v6. Before that, portrait and landscape pics were uploaded from camera with no problems.

Hi,
I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
Anyway, thank you,
Chris

Changing the cursor to the hourglass. Any ideas?

I posted this in the Actionscript 3 Forum so I'm sorry about
the double post.
I've got a frame in my Flash AIR app that loads some data and
I'd like to change the cursor to the hourglass in Windows (watch on
the Mac) while the data loads. Anyone have any ideas? It seems like
it should be simple, but I just can't seem to find a solution for
it.

Yeah, you can't do that. This is a top request of mine, glad
to see I'm not alone. File an Enhancement Request -- see me
signature.
The workaround is to attach a custom graphic within Flash (or
your HTML app) to the mouse location. The limitation of course is
that this isn't system level, so you need to rely on custom
graphics, and the graphic obviously won't be able to go outside the
Flash/app frame. You can hide the mouse, thus effectively replacing
the mouse cursor with your custom graphic, but I'd do that with
caution: poor app performance or hangs will make the user think
their mouse is hanging, which is a really bad feeling, and there
are some other situations that can get hairy (mouse stays hidden
outside of the app frame, sometimes, so cursor has completely
disappeared!) For an hourglass or similar it makes sense to just
attach right beside the cursor.
Marco, the stopwatch you've seen is probably the one used in
the Flex framework. It uses the custom attached graphic
workaround.

I just upgraded my iPhone4s to iOS7 and now I am unable to make phone calls and send/receive text messages. Network signal indicator on the upper left side of the display shows hollow circles instead of full circles. Any idea how to fix the problem?

I just upgraded my iPhone4s to iOS7 and now I am unable to make phone calls and send/receive text messaes. Network signal indicator on the upper left side of the display shows hollow circles instead of full circles (but with the network provider name). I checked with my colleagues in the office who use the same network and theirs work just fine on iOS7. Any idea how to fix the problem?

I have also called my service provider and my service remains active in the network. I tried removing and reinserting my SIM but to no avail.

My cursor is playing up. It changes from hand grab or spot circle back to an arrow in the middle of the photo. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks!

Any idea how to stop it doing that.
I can't remove dust spots in the centre of the picture or zoom in by pressing the hand sign, it just moves on to the next photo instead.

Now the saturation slide is not moving!
Hell of a night tonight.
