My trackpad does not allow me to click/highlight copy a section of text

I used to be able to click then while holding down my finger highlight an area of text to either copy and paste or to search. Not any more! Also my trackpad will not allow me to click hold and move things. Very frustrating! I do not want to have to use a mouse.

Go to System Preferences>TrackPad and try toggling the trackpad setting and changed that they are correct.

I am syncing my iphone to my iTunes account and then I do a backup and also making sure all updates are current. Then by going to the my phone and then going to the right and selecting the restore my iphone.
Here is a picture of what I get

Why, after pasting a weblink into my emails and sending them it does not allow you to click on them to open directly to the website? (It just started doing that)

When I copy and paste the weblink to a particular website I wish to paste into an email I'm sending it just pastes it in 'black & white' and after I send it it will not allow you to open it up in the email...It does not create a 'weblink.' You have to copy and paste the link into the address toolbar and then hit enter. Then it will take you to the weblink.

To do this in iMovie 11. use the SHARE menu. Share your project using the Share menu and choose Export Using QuickTime.
In the Dialog box that comes up, choose Sound to AIFF, or one of the other sound options. This will create a file that you can drag into iTubes.

Is it possible to load pictures directly from your computer to your ipad. When I loaded the camera pictures onto the computer, re ordered them and fixed some, I then tried to move them to the ipad. It does not allow me to paste the copied file.

Is it possible to load pictures from a computer to your ipad. When modified my camera pictures and reordered them, I was unable to load them to the ipad. I could copy but not paste. If I reinstalled them on the memory card, the ipad did not recognize them.

The iPad can be pretty picky.
One way, if you sync your iPad to your computer, is to use iTunes to 'sync' the photos onto the iPad. Of course that has the downside of if you sync them on you have to use iTunes to sync them off.
Or you can download the iCloud control panel and use photostream to put the photos onto your iPad. WHen you install the iCloud panel and enable photo stream it'll put a folder on your computer. Import photos into that folder and they'll go onto your iPad (they do transfer via wifi so it's not exactly an instant thing, might take a few minutes depending on your network and file size.
Or, if you have a few, you can e-mail them to yourself, open that mail on your ipad and save them from there.
Or, to use the camera kit, you can import htem onto your iPad, but the camera connection kit requires a very specific naming protocol. There must be a folder named DCIM on your memory card, and then all files on that card must be in that folder and have a name of 8 characters. If you follow the naming convention, once you plug the memory card in the iPad will see it and allow you to import the photos.
there are also third party photo apps I just dont' have any to recommend.
One more thing to bear in mind, even if you rename the files, the ipad persists in organizing the photos by date, so I'd experiment and make sure it doesn't totally rearrange your files before you spend a lot of time on it. (third party apps may respect the name of the photo and organize it that way rather than by date first, then name)

Creating Data Driven Subscription does not allow me to get Auto copy from Query.

I am trying to create a data driven Subscription for sharepoint document Library. I have a table I populate with values. Then a stored procedure that exec and returns the values. I use this in my data driven subscription.
Here is what my table looks like
intSubscriptionID strSubscriptionName strFileName strPath strRenderFormat strWriteMode strFileExt strTitle strAutoCopy strUserName strPassword strVar1 strVar2 strVar3 strVar4 strVar5 strVar6 strVar7 strVar8 strVar9 strVar10 bitEnabled
400 Billing - Invoice_ParentChildRollup 19_Jan2015 http://eagleviewportal/BusinessIntelligenceCenter/AccountingBI/Reports/New Excel Overwrite True Invoice_ParentChildRollup False NULL NULL 0000019 NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL 1
401 Test Daily Order and Pending Status by SubAccount Test Daily Order and Pending Status by SubAccount http://eagleviewportal/BusinessIntelligenceCenter/ClientRelationsBI/Reports/New Excel Overwrite True Test
Daily Order and Pending Status by SubAccount True NULL NULL 152884 NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL 1
I can use all the values and it creates my subscription no problem as long as I do not try to use the autocopy.
If I select Use no Value all works great.
If I select Specify a static Value and then choose True it gives me an error The AutoCopy Delivery setting cannot be set to True if the WriteMode Delivery setting is not set to Overwrite. as you can see that value is set to overwrite. If I use
hard coded word OverWrite instead of getting it from query it works.
If I do the same step above but select False it seems to work as well.
If I try to choose the value from the query then it errors with the generic Sorry Something went wrong. I cannot find any value in url logs.
Ken Craig

Hi Ken,
I have reproduced the same issue as you encountered. If you choose both value for the fields(WriteMode and AutoCopy) from query, SharePoint will result in an error page. I finally fixed the issue by manually updating the table
dbo.Subscriptions from the reporting service database. To make this, please first copy the value of field
ExtensionSettings from the subscription table.
Change the WRITEMODE and AUTOCOPY from "<ParameterValue><Name>WRITEMODE</Name><Value>Overwrite</Value></ParameterValue> <ParameterValue><Name>AUTOCOPY</Name><Value>AutoCopy</Value></ParameterValue>"
to "<ParameterValue><Name>WRITEMODE</Name><Field>strWriteMode</Field></ParameterValue> <ParameterValue><Name>AUTOCOPY</Name><Field>strAutoCopy</Field></ParameterValue>".
Here Value means the static value, and field means the name of the query field. After you modify it, copy the settings back to field
ExtensionSettings or use update SQL to update it.
At last, your data driven subscription should be like this:
Thanks,
Reken Liu

The latest version of iTunes does not allow me to open a playlist in a separate window. I need this feature. Is there another way? You used to be able to double click a playlist and have it appear in a new window.

The latest version of iTunes does not allow me to open a playlist in a separate window. I need this feature. Is there another way? You used to be able to double click a playlist and have it appear in a new window.

Others have commented on this too. It seems to be one of the 'improvements' of the newer version you are supposed to embrace with joy as an exciting new development. You can send feedback to Apple but realize you may be perceived as standing in the path of progress.

In Security, clicking on the "Saved Password" button displays your current saved password for each site. It does not allow you to change a password. How would you do that?

In Security, clicking on the "Saved Password" button displays your current saved password for each site. It only allows you to view and delete site passwords. It does not allow you to change a password. How would you do that?

If you enter a new password Firefox should offer to change the password.
*You may not need to delete the old password. Try "Refreshing" the page, entering the site again, you may need to let Firefox fill in the old password, then enter the new password, and Firefox should ask to save the new password. See:

*If you delete the old password, you may need to "Refresh" the site after deleting the old password.
If you want to delete the password that has been saved do the following:
#In the Tools menu select Options to open the options window
#Go to the Security panel
#Click the "Saved Passwords" button to open the passwords manager

In attempting to sync my Outlook Contacts to my iphone 5, Outlook shows in the drop down, but it does not allow click-on, then below is listed only my email information, nothing else, no calendars, contacts. When I click on the email, it adds new acct

In attempting to sync my Outlook Contacts to my new iphone 5,in iTunes, Outlook shows in the drop-down box, but it does not allow click-on. Individual items are not listed to click on. The only listing is my email address and when you sync it, it really does not sync, it adds another email account with the same name, and no contacts sync with it.

also - when I use camera wizard it just tells me the phone is busy or in use and I should retry.
If I use it through windoes explorer - it shows me the camera to computer symbols and a line moving between then but bombs out saying camera is busy.

This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
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. Same problem(s)?
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 in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
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. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

When clicking on a lookup, firefor does not allow me to select from the list

When I use firefox, the website I am on has lookup fields located on it, firefox does not allow me to select my preferred option from the list. also when I slect another lookup from a list it displays the message 'invalid lookup value located in field ......'
This does not happen in IE

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Having a problem with Firefox using Hotmail email. Inbox - as checking messages it freezes up or a 1 item window follows cursor and does not allow you to enter

I am having a problem accessing Hotmail email messages via Fireflox server. When I am in the Inbox, reviewing messages, it either freezes up or a "1 item" small icon window follows cursor and does not allow me to enter messages or do anything. Have to log off and start over. Suggestions>?

Can you detect any pattern to it, whether related to messages with attachments, or particular advertising on the page, etc.?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
(Usually the dialog will refer to live.com rather than hotmail.com, that's normal.)
Then try reloading the page and logging in again. Does that help?
