Hi,
Open System Preferences / Exposé & Spaces then select the Spaces tab.
If "Enable Spaces" is selected, deselect that box.
Now click the Exposé tab. Check to see if you have any *Active Screen Corners* activated.

How do I get an album from Itunes that I have already downloaded to show the complete album again. After the last update it only shows one song. I tried to re purchase the whole album but it will not let me cause I already purchased it. Pease help
The large text size makes your post almost impossible to read.
Excessive use of bold or capitals (also) makes posts difficult to read.
You can drag most of the column headings left or right, or right-click on the header to turn columns on or off.
Once you've used File > Display Duplicates or Shift > File > Display Exact Duplicates you can use File > Display All or the Display All button at the bottom of the list to restore the display.
For general advice on organising your library see this article on Grouping tracks into albums.

Screen/Desktop Only showing one program at a time...
My mom called me in to look at her iMac earlier today. She said she was moving her illustrator window off to the side when all of the sudden it was "sucked" away to the left side of the screen. Now when she tries to bring up more than one window for different programs, it will only show windows from one program at a time. I have no clue what she has done and can't seem to find a way to fix this... Does anyone know what she has turned on and how can I turn it off?
Thanks!sounds strange. I would try resetting dock and spaces preferences. delete the file homedirectory/library/preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and log out/in. your dock, spaces and exposé will be reset to the defaults.

I have time machine saving onto two usb drives.
The total size of the files being backed up is 4.6TB.
Each external USB drive is 6TB. So I have 12 TB of space for Time Machine.
Why is time machine only updating one USB drive? (One drive has been the same for two weeks.)
I have selected both drives in the Time Machine settings panel.
My understanding was that it would do a full backup, and then incremental backups of changed files, getting rid of old copies as needed, and alternate between the two drives.
But it looks like drive A has one complete backup, dated two weeks ago, and drive B is the only one getting action.
There is a red icon on drive one that says the drive needs 120GB more space to do a backup -- which is strange since the whole backup set is only 4.6TB in size, and the drive is 6TB in size...You could try a clone instead.

I gifted $15 to my friend through the itunes store. After 30 minutes, she had not received it so I resent the message. iTunes didn't say I would be double charged for RESENDING the email.
She only received the email once. She opened it and the redemption code was automatically downloaded onto iTunes. She only received $15, not the $30 I was charged!
I've tried calling iTunes support and now I'm here.
Can a robot please help since custome service is out the window?!The iTunes Store has no phone support. Go here:

and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

It appears that my iPhone 5 has a wifi signal reception issue. I only show one bar on the wifi signal meter even when I an next to the router. Both my Macbook Air and my iPad2 show full wifi signals at the same time. Rebooting the Apple router and each device results in the same meter readings.
Does this occur with any Wi-Fi connection? Or only a specific one?
If it occurs with any Wi-Fi connection, take it to Apple.
If it is only occurring with a specific Wi-Fi connection, it is an issue with that Wi-Fi connection.
Try the following, it may help:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Forget the Wi-Fi connection on the iPhone then reconnect.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). -
Login window only shows one user account
Hi,
Anyone has an idea what's happening?
I'm running Yosemite on MBPr 15" Mid-2012
When I power on or reboot the laptop, on the login window it only shows one user account, my account which is the Admin account. It doesn't show the secondary normal user account I created for my wife. However once I'm logged in and I hit log-off, then it shows the 2 user accounts available for login.
Thanks in advance!The lock is on the bottom left not bottom right. Sorry mixed that up.
Letting other users unlock the drive
If you want to make the Mac available to a user that doesn't currently have unlock capabilities, log in as a user that can unlock the disk. When you see your own desktop, choose "Log Out (user name)" from the Apple () menu. Also, you can unlock the disk, then switch to another user from Fast User Switch menu in the menu bar.
If you want to grant existing users the ability to unlock the drive on their own, open the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences. Select the FileVault tab and click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the window. Enter your admin privileges when prompted. Click the "Enable Users..." button to add existing users to the list of accounts that can unlock the disk.
Hope that helps,
Weston

gmail attachment pics saved on desktop only shows 1 pic. the original email had 20 pics.
Well, as usual with any new release, there will always be issues. No one is perfect and Apple is no different. At least the important functions work for me (phone, browser, ipod). I've already submitted this issue as a bug so hopefully in the next firmware version, it will be fixed. I've heard they're testing a 2.0.1 version but not sure if that would include this fix.
As for removing that picture from your phone, I'd connect the iPhone to a computer and then delete it directly from the iPhone. I haven't tried that on mine but it might work. When I connected the iPhone to my computer and transferred it, it was the exact same size as the one I sent in my email. I haven't had the issue your experiencing though but I have the 1st generation iPhone, running the 5A347 firmware build. If you have the 3G, could be limited to the new phone or the older firmware on the 3G phones? (I think they came with 5A345 out of the box). Maybe a restore is in order or just wait for the 2.0.1 version to come out. Hope this helped. -
I only show one iCloud on my IPhone that can do a restore. I synced it with my MacBook Pro and I think that may have messed things up. Prior to that I have several backups. Will a "genius" be able to access the info I need?
If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

I have several albums by and an artist as is expected for a number of artists. But after the new iOs5 update my ipod touch now only showing one on my ipod. I have already resynced it, any suggestions on how to fix the problem without having to restore my iPod to factory settings.
Becaise the digitizer is broken in that area
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

Why can I create a new folder in the catalog but it only shows up in windows not the catalog
Why can I create a new folder in the catalog but it only shows up in windows not the catalog
Not sure I understand the question but it could be because you meant to say "can't" somewhere in the sentence. anyway, just guessing here:
Try going to:
File >> Watch folders
Now you can Add new folders here that you see them in Windows. The word ADD is a button to browse for the folders and hopefully this will solve the problem you are having. -
How do I get my printer to print only on one side of the paper?
I want to print only on one side of the papger. But machine prints out on both sides. When I remove the duplexer at back of machine, the paper flies out the back and printing error says no paper. I'm going nuts. I am a writer and can only submit material on one side of the paper. I just got this machine and hate that it has no manual and the manual on line is beyond me. I need simple easy to understand instructions for my simple brain. thanks
Hi,
Follow these steps to disable two sided printing:
Open the file you would like to print. From the File menu select Print. The Print window appears.
NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.
Click the settings drop down, it will usually appear as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
Select Layout from the drop-down menu.
Set the Two-Sided option as Off.
You may save the settings as a preset by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset...
By doing so and completing the print job these settings will remain default till another preset will be used in the future.

Shlomi
