New button colors hard to see

The new light gray colors are now rather difficult to see at a glance which one is greyed out and which one is active. It is so bad that I even looked at the Universal Access System Prefs pane and bumped up the contrast but even that doesn't seem to help. Why on Earth did anyone thing this was a good idea or makes the interface more appealing in any way? Or more importantly, is there a way to bring back the old button colors?

Most likely your home button is worn out. There is really nothing that you can do, it's just usual wear and tear. You could set up a repair through Apple. Your phone is probably out of warrany if you don't have a plan set up on your phone. You could do a repair through Apple, get a third party to repair it, or pony up and get the iPhone 5!

  • It appears that Apple has taken away the ability to highlight, in color, file names, replacing them with just a hard-to-see colored dot. Can I get back the ability to highlight the whole file name in color?!

    It appears that Maverick has banishd the ability to highlight, in color, file folder names, replacing the color highlight band with a hard-to-see color dot. Is there a way to get the color-band highlight ability to operate?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Apple has replaced that feature in OS X Mavericks by color tags, so you cannot get it back. The only thing you can do is to send feedback to Apple about it, so they will think about including it in future OS X versions > http://www.apple.com/feedback

  • I just updated my ipad2 to ios7 0.2 latest update, but when I go to apps store to upgrade I don't see the upgrade button, nor when I go in for new apps I don't see free button to download new apps. Could you please help

    I just updated my ipad2 to ios7 0.2 latest update, but when I go to apps store to upgrade I don't see the upgrade button besides each app, nor when I go in for new apps I don't see free button to download new apps. Is there any setting that missed ?  please help...

    What do you see instead of update on the apps you are concerned about?
    When updating to iOS 7 auto update for apps will be turned on. When an app has an update available your iPad will download and install the update with no input from you. Apps that have been updated by this automatic process but which have not yet been opened will show a blue dot before their name.
    A record of updated apps is kept for your convenience. You can see this record by using the App Store app and select Updates, the right most choice in the bottom row.

  • HT201365 Can I turn off this update.  I can't see the new lighter colors.

    Can I uninstall this new update?  I cannot see the new lighter colors.

    Hi Hazel,
    From what I have read here it is not possible to downgrade - I wish it was!!!
    Some replies say that people should have researched what iOS7 would look like before upgrading but to be honest I just did not believe that it could be as bad as it turned out to be.
    I have sent feedback to Apple here and would encourage you to do the same - they need to know how difficult it is now the visual contrasts are so poor:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    If you go to Settings -> General -> "Accessibility" it helps a little to do this:
    Larger type: ON
    Bold text: ON
    Increase Contrast: ON
    I found that the "Invert Colors" option did not help as it made many controls even more difficult to see!
    I have never had to use the Accessibility settings before - the design of iOS7 is a wonderful if unwelcome illustration of the Social Model of Disability in action!  Apple used to excel at accessible design.  The difference between iOS7 and all previous versions illustrates perfectly that bad design is disabling!

  • Color Scheme Change for Webbrowser (Opera) hard to see.

    Using kde 4.5.
    Plumbum Tones color scheme.
    Hard to see the adress bar in Opera, google search bar, and hard to see the light grey that I am currently typing in. Is there a way to change the color scheme only for opera, the color scheme looks good on everything else (pidgin, dolphin).

  • NEW BUTTON ON IPHONE MAIL APPLICATION......SEE UK GUIDED TOUR!!

    Hey guys i must be going mad, but while watching the Uk 30mins guided tour on the apple uk website i noticed a new button in the mail application. Can some please confirm this to be true and does anyone know what this button does???????
    Thanks.

    Indeed. It is in fact the international keyboard support symbol, it allows for easy toggle between various keyboards e.g. US/UK. Its been available ever since 1.1.1 was released, its just not enabled by default on US phones until you're roaming and have Regional Format enabled.
    From the looks of it, its enabled by default on UK (and probably Germany/France) phones. It can be enabled by slight modification on a US phones as shown

  • Can I have "All spots to process" checked at all times, even for new spot colors?

    When I check “All spots to process” in the pdf export settings and save my settings the settings remember that I've checked this option. But, if new spot color objects using new spot color swatches are added to the document (or another document) and I go into the pdf export settings the check mark has been changed into a dash (with the actual checkbox highlighted) – signifying that only some of of the spot colors will be changed to process colors during export. I absolutely fail to see how this could possibly be seen as a feature and not a bug … if the user has checked “ALL spots to process” wouldn't the user expect ALL spots to be converted to process colors, rather than just any spot colors that happened to be in the document that happened to be open when the user first checked that checkbox and saved that setting?
    Am I missing something here? What's the point of even having that checkbox as part of your saved export settings if it doesn't include any other spot colors than those used when saving the settings?
    What's the point of having settings if you can't trust them, and still need to manually "override" them every time?
    I see that some users have taken to writing scripts that instead turn all spot colors in the swatch panel to process colors, and while I commend them for creating that workaround, I'm still pissed at Adobe for not getting the function right.
    If this is a feature, who is it for? People who want to add just certain spot colors and turn those into process colors rather than turning all spot colors into process colors are surely better off doing that in the swatches panel, where they're in total control of what's what. And if they don't want to "permanently" change their spot colors to process colors, and prefer to (temporarily) convert them during exporting/printing only, they can do that in the ink manager. But when someone checks convert "All spots to process" couldn't we safely assume they really want ALL spot colors to be converted and not just some of them? I mean, the way that checkbox behaves now, it's like it's a button and not a checkbox. As in: hit the button "All spots to process" to switch all currently viewed spot colors to process colors in the ink manager, OR check the "All spots to process" checkbox to always convert ALL spot colors to process colors during exporting/printing.
    Anyone got any light to shed on this?
    And is there a way to actually get the advertised behavior, because if you have to run a script every time you export/print you might as well just manually select the checkbox every time instead, but either way it's just really unnecessary as far as I'm concerned … Adobe should get the feature right instead.
    If you save a setting and recall it, it shouldn't be possible for that setting to change into something else (in this case changing a checkmark to a dash).
    Clearly CMYK printing is the norm, so for most users it would make a lot of sense to have the "All spots to process" checked most of the time, and then you just go into the swatches panel or the ink manager and set things correctly for those print jobs that really do need spot colors.
    I myself am not one of those who add spot colors to my swatches unless I'm really using them as spot colors, but I often work with magazines and folders featuring adverts made by whoever, and typically there's always at least one advert that features spot colors, and therefore it would be very nice if the "All spots to process" feature actually worked as advertised without any required actions from me.
    We stopped sending ads back to the advertisers for adjustments a long time ago, unless we absolutely had to, because there were so many things wrong with so many ads that it was simply too much work to write back and explain everything to people who most of the time didn't even understand what we were talking about. We found that it was usually a LOT faster and easier to just adapt the ads ourselves, as long as it was something that could be worked out really quickly from within InDesign itself, which pretty much included most typical errors.
    But with this feature I find Adobe is trying to make my job harder rather than easier, and it's pissing me off. Arrrghh… ;-)

    But It's not a preference it's a shortcut
    It's a bad joke, is what it is. ;-)
    So, why in your opinion should it be presented the way it is? I keep saying in it's current functionality it shouldn't be presented the way it is (and that: if it is, it shouldn't work the way it does). If it's not a preference or even a proper checkbox, why present it that way?
    If you put it right next to the table at the top of the window (so that it's directly associated with that information, rather than information right above it) and just called the checkbox “Spot(s) to process” and had it only visually reflect the content of the sleected spot colors in the table, then I'd see your point with likening it to the “Hyphenate” checkbox.
    If a story has two selected paragraphs that uses two different hyphenation settings then the checkbox should present the way it does now, but if you hit the checkbox so that both paragraphs now use hyphenation and create a third paragraph inbetween the two previous ones it better inherit that setting and not turn off hyphenation for the new paragraph (unless of course there's a defined next paragraph style that switches to a style with hyphenation turned off). And if that checkbox said “Hyphenate all paragraphs” instead, then I would expect it to do just that, and not just the selected ones, and not just the current paragraphs but quite literally all paragraphs even newly created ones – otherwise it doesn't do what it says it does, and simply shouldn't be labeled that way.
    And seriously bad interface design aside, you'd have to rename “All spots to process” to “Switch all currently displayed spot swatches listed in the table above to process” to actually describe what that checkbox does. So even if you're a fan of the current functionality, as opposed to one that actually lets the user set and forget a setting like that, and think it's better that users manually check it repeatedly (which I'm not saying that you are, but you're not giving me any feedback suggesting you even see my point of view with any of this, so what do I know?), then why wouldn't you still support an interface that visually matches/signals that functionality better? If it's a “Select all” checkbox supplementing a table containing a column of checkboxes, then present it that way. Don't put it at the bottom of the window next to another checkbox that works just like a regular checkbox and label it “All spots to process” – because that way you are signalling a different behavior.
    Seriously, if I was to do design using the same mentality that Adobe uses when designing their user interfaces it wouldn't be long before I lost all clients. There's a lot to be said for de facto monopolies, I suppose. Oh no, there's nothing wrong with the design, just as long as you accept it on it's own terms and don't compare it to anything relevant, and just as long as you give people enough time to understand and accept it … and surrender to it.
    For real … I wouldn't win one single pitch that way.
    Today's threads have in many ways been a thorough reminder of the following quote from the second link I provided:
    Is there an Internet rule yet stating that even the most obviously indefensible mistake will eventually be defended by someone somewhere? Awful marketing efforts get explained as genius viral campaigns, broken features become solutions.
    And whether or not you're able to see my point of view or not is really besides the point too.
    The real point was, and remains to be:
    That for those who receive lots of ads or other external files that may or may not contain spot colors it would be far more useful to be able to set a checkbox to always convert all spots to process when exporting, than the current functionality is (and I'm not suggesting eliminating the current functionality, just change so it's presented like what it really is, and then just let that separate checkbox do what it says) … causing unnecessary manual action on the user's behalf shouldn't be the business of Adobe – preventing it should.
    And here's further reading on the subject of bad Adobe interface design for those who might feel so inclined. ;-)
    Cheers!

  • DVDSP3 Won't Make New Buttons, Won't Open Project Files

    HELP!!!!
    The button editor in my DVDSP 3.02 stopped working after it opens a new project file. I mean, when you go to a menu and then hold down the mouse button and drag, nothing happens. It will not create any new buttons. Even if you drag a button template over and use the pop-up submenu. It will not create any buttons.
    Worse is what happens when I open an existing project file. Then it stalls forever at the "Loading Menus" point in the "Loading Project" dialog. It doesn't crash, it just stalls there forever. However, if I click "cancel" - THEN the app crashes.
    But it won't make buttons in the new project files it can open, and it won't open any existing project files. Very confusing.
    Here's what I know and have done to this point...
    If I watch this whole process in the Activity Monitor, here's what I see. I find that two apps named "DSPX_AEncoderServer" and "DSPX_EncoderServer" get hung (and turn red) when the "Loading menus" point is reached in the document load. Sometimes DVDSP will say it's hung, too, but not always.
    However, I found that my DVDSP app still runs flawlessly if I boot from my "clone" backup drive, which is how I'm still able to get work done currently.
    Back on my normal boot drive, all of the other Apple Pro apps still run perfectly - FCP, Compressor, A-Pack, etc. But not DVDSP.
    OK, here's a clue, but I don't know what it means. Two months ago, I had the logic board replaced on my G4. All the pro apps made me re-register. Then this DVDSP problem appeared out of the blue. Nothing fixed it that I could find. What made it finally go away was the timely arrival of a new Security Update to the OS via "Software Update." Installing that made the problem with DVDSP go away, for good.
    Not doing hard drive maintenance, repairing privleges, fully optimizing OS, Disk Warrrior, Norton DiskDoctor - none of them worked. But that Security Update showing up, installing, and then doing the post-install optimize fixed the problem. That time. Or maybe it didn't? Because...
    Two weeks ago the FW ports on the "new" logic board blew, just like the original, so AppleCare gave me a third logic board.
    Same deal as before with all the pro apps wanting to re-register because they are seeing a different serial number in firmware.
    Also, just like before, I have this trouble with DVDSP. But I can't fix it this time.
    In the past three days (two of which were really one "large" day with no sleep period in between) here's what I have done in an attempt to fix this, without success.
    I dumped the receipts for the DVDSP v3 installs and upgrades, then I reinstalled the DVDSP components from my original disc, and then reinstalled the online 3.02 upgrade. No go.
    I did all of the above, except this time I found an Apple TechNote on deinstalling DVDSP v2. So using that as a guide I did my best to delete the app and all its supporting files, as well as the install receipts, before doing a fresh install of the app and the v3.02 upgrade. No go.
    I did a plethora of hard drive and system maintenance thinking that perhaps some files had been misplaced, a hard drive directory corrupted, a bundle bit here or there un-set, a few system libraries de-optimized, various font and system caches corrupted, as well as numerous log files too filled up with "essential" data to run correctly therefore in need of deletion.
    Along with anything else I could think of based on my 20+ years of supporting Macs in a production environment. Again, no go.
    So I deleted all the DVDSP files and receipts from my boot drive again. Then I dumped all the install receipts for OS 10.3.9 and ran the "combo" version installer for that OS upgrade. Next I dumped the receipts for the Security Updates and reinstalled those. Then I did drive maintenance, OS permission fixing and optimizing. Then reinstalled DVDSP and friends. Still no go.
    But my version of the app that is on my backup hard drive that I cloned right before taking the Mac to the shop for the 3rd logic board still runs just fine. I boot off that drive (connected via Firewire) and DVDSP will run fine.
    I'm confused.
    Now I'm not inclined to spend a lot more time on this since my DVDSP 4 upgrade is due for delivery any day now, and I'm sure that will work OK. Especially since I'm planning on moving to Tiger at that point, too.
    But in the meantime, it sure would be nice to know what happened to my "regular" copy of DVDSP.
    Can anyone figure this out, or at least give me some new ideas on now to troubleshoot this?
    Apple Support refuses to help me because I'm still using an "unsupported" version of DVDSP. Even though I'm still using it because my purchased upgrade is being delivered via "media mail" - the US Postal Service's version of the proverbial "Slow Boat."
    That was a difficult and frustrating conversation withthe Apple Support rep, too, let me tell you. I've been a fan, user, customer, supporter, and evangelist for Apple hardware and software since 1984. But when that voice on the other end of the phone essentially told me that...
    a) if I was not using the latest and greatest version of the software, AND...
    b) if I was not willing to spend several hundred dollars each year on support fees...
    ...then I was basically on my own and they would not help me. Worse, they didn't care that I was an old and loyal customer, or that I was even a stockholder in the company. The support system essentially told me to get stuffed. Yee-e-e-ow!!!!
    I was especially mad about this because I have this nagging suspicion that this whole problem I'm having with DVDSP is somehow related to some kind of copy protection scheme that Apple has going on but doesn't talk about.
    I mean why did I need to re-enter the serial numbers for all my pro apps when I changed logic boards? Is my problem being caused by some Pro App component that knows enough to stop working when it thinks it's been bootlegged, but doesn't know enough to trigger a re-registration of itself.
    At this point, that idea is beginning to sound more and more plausible as the cause of my trouble.
    Anyway, this problem is seriously hurting my workflow. I'm out of ideas and I need some guidance from the collected wisdom of the forum to solve this problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    I didn't see anywhere that you had downloaded and
    installed the latest proApplication Support file. If
    you haven't, you should do this next:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/proapplications
    upport31macosx1039.html
    Hal:
    I had reinstalled that ProApps Support version, but I hadn't done it since I deleted all the app files and such, then done a complete reinstall from the DVD.
    So I just downloaded it afresh, and then installed it. Then I restarted, and then repaired permissions with Disk Utility.
    Still no go.
    I'm bamboozled. I thought I knew something about this stuff, but I guess it's good to stay humble.
    However, my 5.1 studio upgrade just arrived in today's mail. I think I'm going to take a chance. I'm between projects right now. So I'm going to upgrade my OS to Tiger>then 10.4.6 upd. Then I'll take a shot at installing the new FCP Studio upgrade and see what happens.
    Any comments or advice? Otherwise, wish me luck. I'll let you know how this works out with a post here.
    Sure wish I could figure out what's going on with my DVDSP v3, though. I really HATE to leave unresolved problems hanging out there. Seems like they always come back to bite you again if you don't deal with them.
    Thanks for the help.

  • Can you change the button color on a custom theme?

    I recently installed a nice theme called Fractal-01 Song of a morning breeze. I had to installan add-on to change the menus that were white and thus invisible, but I have not figured out how to get the grey buttons for like Home and Back and Reload black, and they are very hard to see with this theme.
    I tried changing them in Custom Theme Restorer, but nothing seems to change them to black. I can't imagine that the person who designed this theme would have made these washed out colors that blend into the theme the default, but maybe he or she did. It is a shame to give up on such a nice theme if I don't have to, but it helps if you can see your buttons.

    Hi sherylz,
    It is also possible to edit the theme, but it may be wise to make a copy of it:

  • New Hyperlink Color

    I am having trouble changing a hyperlink color.
    My default is red and I wwant it to be blue.
    I create a new hyperlink, modify the font, size, and color as I want.
    I "Create Character Style From Selection".
    When I use Link Inspector - Enable as a hyperlink - email, it changes font and size, but not color.
    The default red is always used.
    This happens if I make the text a link first or if I make the changes first and then make it a link.
    What am I doing wrong?

    So why do my efforst to modify show up correctly on the Mac?

  • New 60 gb hard drive installed, ibook will not reboot

    This is my first time using this type of support. Please share your advice as I learn the appropriate "norms" of the discussion system.
    Computer:
    2001 apple g3 ibook
    dual usb ports
    500 mgh
    320 DRAM
    10gb hard drive just swapped out for a 60 gb hard drive
    Operating System:
    I started out with the OS9 and OSX system configuration... I have since changed over to OSX exclusively... My current system is OSX 3.9 .
    I have the original install disks and all of the other OSX upgrade disks available...
    Problem:
    My ibook kept saying that I did not have enough space on my start-up drive... I bought and installed a 60 gb hard drive after backing my hard drive up on an external hard drive.
    I am unable to reboot my ibook after the install. I have tried holding the C button on start-up. I get a smiling face folder with a question mark flashing every few minutes. I have tried holding the X button on start-up. I get a "padlock_________arrow button". I have tried to put in my administrative password in the space between the padlock and the arrow button. When I do this, I see lots of dots flashing from left to right. I was hoping that the ibook was trying to boot from the external hard drive.
    I have not tried to reboot with the original install disks that I received in 2001. I will try this today.
    I am assuming that I put the install disk in and hold the C button as the chime sounds... If this gets me into the system, then what do I do...
    I thought I knew what I was doing...but...
    Thank you for your help and advice.

    First please confirm what sort of install disks you have. Your iBook originally shipped with 10.0.3. Do you have the 10.3.x Panther retail full install CDs?
    Hello:
    Thank you for responding so quickly!
    I do have the 10.0.3 install disks. I also have the full 10.2 install disk. I have the 10.3 update disk.
    Problem:
    I have tried to boot up using the 10.0.3 and the 10.2 install disks. I held the C button down as the chime was ending. I released the C button when I saw the folder symbol appear on my desktop... The folder has the OSX image on it... I do not have a curser available...
    Any ideas?
    I am trying to think back... I backed up my original hard drive to an external hard drive... I was under the impression that the external would act as a "bootable" disk...
    I installed a new 60 gb hard drive.
    I tried to reboot my computer with the C button pushed for the disk start up... folder appears with OSX logo on it.
    and with the option down... also the X down... padlock appears with an arrow to its right.

  • Creation of new button on same page after insert command

    Hello All,
    I have an application running on apex.oracle.com where my workspace name is shruti_work,username is [email protected] and password is buwigi. The application name inside this is "app2"
    I am trying to achieve one functionality there but unable to get it so felt like seeking an help from experts here. I have two forms there one page1 form which is simplly made on an html region with go button which is navigating the page 1 items value to page 2 but simply passing their address witout updting the database table.
    In Page 2 i created page on a table or view, which made some extra buttons which i dont want like applychanges ,delete button, cancel button. I created a create button even which is updating my database with insert sql command. What i am seeing is after my create button is pressed i got navigated to same page 2 which i want to but the applychange button, cancel and delete button got appeared. I dont get the idea why it is so. i have checked the buttons even i didnt found anything there.
    All i want is when i press create button in page 2, my database get update and at the same page (2) a new button get appears which i have to use for other things. Approaching to this solution i created a button with giving databse action update and condition to this button "value of item in expression 1 is not null" and in expression 1 i passed p2_id...... but my new button is not getting created.
    Any help on this?

    Hi Jeff,
    I dont want applychanges button and delete button in my page 2. But when i created form on a table or view this but got created and i cannot delete it even. When i am navigating my page from page 1 to page 2 and filling the fields in page 2 and clicking create button, at that time i want after updating my table and running my plsql process which i have created which you can see in page processing, my button at same page get generate which i will use to navigate to other form. This button which i want to generate after clicking my create button will be meaningful only if my record get inserted in table. so that is why i want it at that time.
    I dont want any report so i am not creating form on a table or view
