Why can't I open Facebook. The icon has a blue spot attached
I can't open face book on my iPod mini. The icon has a blue dot attached. What does this mean? And how can I open Facebook?
The blue dot means it is a newly installed or updated app. I would try deleting it and then re-installing from scratch to see if that helps.

The hyperlinks in my pdf all have a blue shaded box around them when viewing in adobe reader.
The hyperlinks in my pdf all have a blue shaded box around them when viewing in adobe reader. How can I get rid of these? Why is this happening? The pdf was created from a presentation in powerpoint and uses the links for some interactivity.
That's a great feature request. I'd like the ability to turn off the blue boxes over hyperlinks as well.

IPad screen has gone blue/green and will not work
My iPad 1 screen has gone to black when it is turned on and willl not work. Screen stays blue/green for about 30 seconds and then turns off. Unit is charged fully and has been updated to current operating software. Gerry
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If that doesn't work then you could see if you can get it into recovery mode and restore it to your last backup : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
But you might need to contact Apple. -
Since doing a restart the green box 'this site is safe' isn't showing at the side of results when searching topics in google? It used to before I did it. Can't explain it in computer language!
I assume that you mean that you have reset Firefox and created a new profile.
A new profile doesn't have the extensions from the previous profile, but extensions that are installed globally can still be activated in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions".
Note that we see a lot of reports that extensions created by security software cause issues in Firefox, so be cautious in case problem return.
What problems did you have previously that you reset Firefox?<br />

How to disable the blue highlight boxes around links?
I've created a document in InDesign CS5, and when viewed on Adobe Reader 10.2 (on an iPad) all the table of contents links within the document, and all links to external websites have a blue highlight field around them. While I appreciate the fact that it makes it obvious where links are, it looks remarkably ugly to have huge blue highlights all over the document. There must be a way to turn these highlights off, right? Either from the source document within InDesign before the PDF is created, or from within Adobe Reader or Acrobat after the PDF is made? I have all the links within InDesign set to "Invisible Rectangle", and it looks great when viewed on older versions of Adobe Reader or in iBooks. Unfortunately, older versions of Adobe Reader don't support hyperlinks on tablets. So somebody using Reader 10.2, however, is now forced to view this document with ugly blue highlights. Is the only option to avoid the highlights to recommend everyone use iBooks to view the document, or is there a way in Reader 10.2 to disable these?
Thanks, but I already have all the hyperlinks set to "Invisible Rectangle", and there are still blue highlight fields around the links in Reader 10.2. If I view the PDF in other programs (iBooks, older versions of Reader) the links appear without the blue highlights. All the research I've done on this seems to point to the blue highlight fields being a "feature" of Reader 10.2, but I can't imagine that Adobe would create a feature with such a visual impact on documents without offering the option to turn that feature off? In a lot of print, online, and interactive docs both text and images are used as links (icons, buttons, etc) and having an automatic blue highlight around them really takes away from the visual impact that graphics provide. There must be an option somewhere to disable or turn these off, but I haven't been able to find it yet. Any other suggestions/ideas?

RED HALO ON FINDER ICON - How to remove red halo around finder icon?
For what ever reason the finder icon in the dock has a red halo, like a red shine around it.
How can I remove this?
ThanksThanks a lot Badunit.

Go to this place and see if it looks the same there:
/System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app
When you get to Dock.App, right click and "show package contents". Then navigate the rest of the way to
/Contents/Resources/finder.png
Double click on finder.png. Does it look like what's in the dock, with the pink halo around it?
The finder.png has the original look.
The only two things I downloaded so far are:
- the app 'caffeine' and
- the QuickTime component 'perian' version 1.2.3 (perian.org)
And system wise the only difference to the week before is that I now do regular backups with Timemachine (original software defivered with the mac).
Funny enough if I drag and drop the finder app into the dock the new icon has the correct color. It is just the original finder (the un-removable one) that has the pink halo.
Nevertheless,the pink halo icon it is functioning fine. But I still would like to have it the original way.
Thanks for your support.

My IPAD has a little box around everything I tap. I have tried to reset the IPAD 2 but to no avail. Now I am locked out and cannot put my passcode into the Ipad2 so I cannot back up the IPAD 2 when plugged in. It is charged ..I was reading a Foot Smart email when this occured. Help
Sounds like you have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on'. Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut (or Triple-Click Home depending upon the iOS version).
If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes (after typing in your passcode via the tap/double-tap process) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064 -
My finder icon has a red hat, what does that mean?
A few days ago i started up my mac! Everything was the same, nothing changed except the icon of the finder!see picture

Windows machine icon has a blue screen! Now that's funny!
I just connected my powerbook running leopard to my windows network at the office. All the windows servers show up in the finder as little monitors with blue screens and some text that you can't make out. I'll bet it says something like "fatal error." Seriously, that's funny.
"Is this a hardware issue? "
Sure sounds like it. However, it depends on which model iMac G5 you have. You never stated.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301724-en *How to identify your iMac*
The 1st & 2nd generation G5 iMac had video & logic board issues which Apple had a free extended warranty program which expired 2 years ago.
iMac G5 Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues - Closed
Sounds like a trip to your local AASP or Apple Store.If you want to attempt to repair yourself, strongly suggest that you post in the iMac G5 Forums.
There are quite a few users there that can point you in the right +"do it yourself"+ repair direction.

When converting a Word doc to a PDF the pictures are surrounded by a blue shadowed boxes
I started off with a PDF, then converted to a Word doc, made necessary changes, and converted back to a new PDF. However, the new PDF has put blue colored boxes around all the pictures. Anyone know how to fix?
I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a workstation using Windows 7.
I have converted docs this way many times before, but for some reason it does not seem to complete the process about 50% of the time these days.

How do I fix a corrupted Finder icon in the Dock
Hello,
My Finder icon has spontaneously corrupted in the Dock. The icon of the Finder.app (in the CoreServices folder) is perfectly fine and its icon the Resources folder of the Dock.app is also perfectly fine.
Yet, the icon of Finder is corrupted in the dock as shown here: http://img802.imageshack.us/img802/2973/dockimage.png and in the picture below
Any ideas, anyone?
My specs are as follows:Have you tried removing all files containing com.apple.dock from the Preferences folder in your HOME Library folder and in the ByHost subfolder of the Preferences folder, then restarting the Dock (or logout/login)?
(To get to the home Library folder, hold option key down while using the Finder Go menu, select Library. Or use the "Go to Folder...." option and paste in
~/Library/Preferences .)

Finder icon in dock is corrupted
Hi all
Today I had the dreaded "dock keeps crashing" problem. That was due to a few photoshop jpgs I put on the downloads folder which weren't properly previewed. After I moved them away, the dock came back, however the finder icon has been damaged somehow.
See the picture (upper border): http://i3.tinypic.com/7x8qedc.png
When I switch apps (command + tab), the same damaged icon is there.
How to get my nice finder icon back to normal?
Thanks!Hello,
The resource image for the Finder icon in the Dock is located here:
HD/System/Library/CoreServices/Dock/Contents/Resources/finder.png
Control-Click on the Dock app and choose from the contextual menu, "Show Package Contents", to access the Contents/Resources Folders and the Finder .png image is there.
Drag the finder.png file to the Preview app in the Dock to open it. (If you have Preview there, if not you can find it in the Applications Folder of your HD).
Does the image look corrupted in the Preview window?
If yes, then this file will in all likelihood need to be replaced with a good one. We'll look into that if necessary.
If no, then all you may have to do is trash your Dock Preferences. Go to:
+HD/Users/(Your Home Folder)/Library/Preferences+
Drag the "com.apple.dock.db" and the "com.apple.dock.plist" files to the Trash but do not empty the trash.
Restart your Mac. You will probably have just the Default set of icons in your Dock afterwards and so you will have to put the ones back that you want. If you have any problems then put the files from the Trash back into the Preferences Folder, replacing the other ones...Restart...your Dock should be back as was.
(You can also drag the finder.png file to the Desktop. It will automatically make a copy there).
This should be enough to get you going. Report back.

Blue bounding box - Can't Remove
www.cfhda.com/menu.html
In Firefox and Navigfator, but "not Safari or Explore," there
is a blue bounding box around a link (pricing) at the bottom.
It shows up in the DW doc, but I can't get rid of it. The
link is a png in a table cell but there are no border or background
colors selected or on the png.
The page property is set to black, but I can't see that that
would make a difference.The link-ness of the image causes it to have that boxed
appearance. The
explicit border attribute overrides it.
