New Modern UI app titlebars misbehaving when using stylus (pen) on tablet

When switching from the desktop to a Modern UI app by tapping the corresponding taskbar button the new titlebar of Modern UI apps behaves differently depending on input method:
1. Finger: the titlebar is not shown at all (correct behaviour)
2. Mouse: the titlebar appears and stays for a few seconds (correct behavior)
3. Stylus: the titlebar will only appear for a second. In fact, as soon as tapping the taskbar button, the titlebar will be displayed at the top of the screen but instantly starts fading/moving out of the screen. Shortly after disappearing, the titlebar
is displayed again for a split second without any animation. This is visually contradicting with the fade out animation just before and creates a very irritating flickering of the titlebar.
Additionally, I'm not able to summon the titlebar again by moving the stylus to the top of the screen.
I don't think this behavior is correct. Either the titlebar should not be displayed at all (like with finger input) or it should stay there for a short duration to make the user aware of itself (like mouse input). Since the titlebar is in fact not usable with
a stylus (you can't get it to show again), going with the finger input way would be the quickest fix.
I'm using the built-in Wacom powered digitizer on an ASUS VivoTab Note 8.

Hi,
Thanks for you feedback.
Can you test on another tablet? If there is the same issue, I would submit a report about this, as we are trying to bring the best experience to customers.

IPad "misbehaves" when used with a MultiSIM - picks up/rejects phone calls

Hello Cupertino,
iPad 3G misbehaves when used e.g. with a MultiSIM card of T-Mobile Germany.
It is said to pick up phone calls and actively rejects them. Thus the "Main" Mobile Phone (e.g. the iPhone) will ring ONCE then the iPad will pick up and reject the call. (On T-Mobile Network, one cannot disallow phone calls for a specific MultiSIM, all Phones of the same number will ring simultaneously).
This is a really serious and embarassing bug, please fix it with next OS version.
Cheers,
Thomas

No! this is a "bug", because the ipad is connecting via the sim-card in an incorrect way. From day one on Apple always is pressing the fact that the iPad is a "data"-device ONLY and NOT a "phone"-device.
There is no intention of Apple to make the ipad do anything else as "connecting to the internet". That's why there is no textmessage app, no voicemail, no phonestuff on the the ipad. That's perfectly ok! But considering this the iPad misbehaves when connecting to a gprs/umts network because it is connecting showing itself as a PHONE AND DataDevice instead of DATA-ONLY.
THAT IS WRONG, because this automatically triggers the telcom provider to sent voice and messaging connections to this device.
Proof: On a jailbroken iPad it is possible to simply switch the device to the correct CGCLASS="CP" setting. With this setting the iPad only connects as a datadevice (e.g. like a usb-umts-stick) and doesn't answer any incoming non-data-connections.
BUT: I don't want a jailbreak! If want a correct working iPad.
And last but not least: the multi-sim-option (meaning more simcards under the same number) is totaly legitimate and is part of the usagespecs for telecom-networks. It is working perfectly well if (yeah, IF) every device connecting to the network identifies itself correctly with its capabilities.
If a device identifies itself as a phone and it actually isn't, then this device has a serious bug and is not correctly configured to be used in a mixed telcom network. Just because "normaly" everybody uses only one simcard, it is no reason NOT to stick to specs.
This is just sloppy work when porting the iPhone OS to the iPad. Simply forgotten! No big deal, but fix it, because Apple is "killing" a whole generation of german t-mobile users (all iphone contracts older than ~12 months can use their dataplan with free multisimcards from t-mobile on different devices!).

How do you add a new thumbnail to a slide show when using in-browser editing?

At this moment you can’t add pictures to a slideshow. You only can replace them.

Mac book pro (late 2013) has a lag when sculpting and rotating models in Zbrush only when using my Wacom-capture tablet (if I use a mouse or trackpad its fine no lag). Also Premiere Pro CS5, playback is almost like watching footage in slow motion.

Also Premiere Pro CS5 playback is almost like watching footage in slow motion, Premiere Pro is installed on the main drive but the footage is on an external drive connected with USB 2.
I'm wondering if it is just a problem with the Mac USB drivers maybe not supporting USB 2 ? (Because I have also installed Window 7 on this same MacBookPro and tested the same software "Zbrush and Premiere Pro" And they both work perfectly on the Bootcamp Windows 7 install, and so its using the same hardware so it has to be the drivers right ?)
Any help would be great, Thanks

My mini ipad cannot use stylus pen

my mini ipad cannot use stylus pen.please advise me. Thank you.

Not sure what to tell you, I have an iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.3 and my stylus works just fine.
You're using one with the squishy rubber tip right?

My New iphone 5s gets hot quickly when using GPS and downloading apps/movies. Is this normal? My Iphone 5 never did that!

I Have had my IPhone 5s for less than a month and have noticed that it gets very hot while downloading apps/movies and while using GPS. (not at the same time) Battery life is also disappointing! Normal?? My 5 never had this problem!

Hi anthonym73,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone getting hot you may want to read this article for some guidance -
Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable operating temperatures
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

TextInput control misbehaves when using the East-Asian fonts

I am a little curious about this issue and I would like to get some help from our community. The issue is about fonts when using East Asian languages.I have all East-Asian language installed on my computer (WIN SERV 2003)and I let my flex application to use the local system font(font is not embedded) to get the Japanese character. When I start typing the characters into the Flex textinput control everything works properly as expected until I reach the boundary of the textinput control, the characters gets displayed outside the textinput and I would need to press the enter key to get the fonts inside the textinput . Have anyone experienced such problems when using fonts for Japanese, Chinese etc? Refer the image for more clarity.Please help

This is the expected behavior for Japanese in my experience. The reason, I think, is that for Japanese characters the text input process has two steps. First the basic phonetic characters are entered and then these are selectively changed into kanji characters which can shorten the final input text. So it makes sense to calculate the textbox height after the text has been finally input, not while it is still being input. The enter key is the event that signals the text should be submitted. I don't know about Chinese, but for Japanese, this is the standard way of handling text input in my experience.

After Effects CS6 11.0.2 crashes when using the pen tool (Mac OS X 10.8.2)

I'm using After Effects CS6 11.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.8.2. Whenever I use the pen tool to add a vertex, the application crashes. I've submitted several crash reports to apple (they get sent to apple automatically when the app relaunches).
My specs:
iMac
21.5-inch, Mid 2010
Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3
Memory 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
Anybody else having this problem or have a solution?

So I have discovered it only crashes when adding a vertex when I'm editing the max a few frames in. When I add vertices on the first frame of the comp I don't have any trouble. I've tried unchecking the box that says preserve constant vertex count, and it still happens.

Disable finger input when using stylus

Hi,
It would be really very useful for those of us with Galaxy Notes to have an option to disable finger input when using the device's stylus. It could be that finger input should still be usable for pinch/zoom etc., but not for drawing or erasing.
An on-screen toggle button for this would be ideal, as in the Galaxy S-Note app, but even an option in the app preferences would be excellent.
This would make a great mobile app even better.
Please add a comment if you would find this useful.
Thanks,
Mike

I think this is a good idea, with the proviso (as you mentioned), that you could still use the two finger pan/zoom (and three finger 100% zoom toggle).
Why don't you stick this in the ideas section? Then people can vote on it.

Why do arrow heads change ends when using the pen tool?

1. I create a horizontal line
2. I change it to a right ended arrow head selected from my own graphic styles
3. I then want to extend the left side ( non arrow end) with the pen tool
4. I click the non arrow end to extend the line in a vertical direction
5. The atrrow head changes to the other end
Why?

Illustrator's arrowheads don't know right from left, they only know start from finish. Each open path in Illustrator has a beginning and an end. When you use the pen to extend a path you make the end you work from the end, even if it was once the beginning. Deselect the path, then click on the other end with the pen tool to restore the path direction.
If all you are doing is making the path longer I'd would be better to just move the end point.

Don't shade area when using the pen Tool?

When I use the Pen tool the whole area beneath the curve is shaded. Is it possible to only draw a curve and not shade the area?

blop,
At the bottom of the Toolbox, change Fill to None.

Thinkpad Yoga - screen wear when using the pen

I've been using penabled laptops for about 8 years now and bought a ThinkPad Yoga about 10 month ago.
The pen turned out to be disappointing - it's a lightweight job reminiscent of the pens they include with Samsung Note and like phablets rather tha a proper full size Wacom pen.
Just like other people I was also disappointed by the non removable plastic sheet protector on the screen in place of proper Gorilla glass screen cover.
But well, overall, apart from the awful touchpad, it was a decent laptop and I've been always happy with my previous Thinkpads, so I kept it.
Now, I'm using the pen a lot, incliding for scrolling. It turned out that the nib is not replaceable and that the plastic sheet protector on the screen is not hard enough to resist wear from the included pen - after 10 month of use it's pretty badly worn, especially in the scrolling area on the right.
I've never had this issue with my previous penabled tablets, even after 3-4 years of use, so I must say I'm rather disapponted at Lenovo selling this as a penabled laptop when the screen could not stand up to daily use with the included pen.
Does anyone else have this issue? Should I send it back to Lenovo to get the protective layer replaced while it's still under warranty?

I had this very problem with my Yoga S1 display screen. The anti-glare foil/protector became scratched by the digitizer pen. After reading a bunch of posts about removing this film layer, it looked easy enough, so I decided to JUST DO IT. My steps:
I grabbed a sharp razor blade and started in the corner where the "Lenovo" logo is placed (bottom left). Very gently, I slid the blade edge under the film being careful not to dig, pry, or lift the blade any more than necessary -- just keep is as flat as possible and glide slowly about 1/2" or so making an equilateral triangle shape. The corner of the film will lift up losing its adherence and, in my case, I experienced zero damage.
I elected to continue sliding the blade along all four edges only 1/8" or so deep - just to make sure that the film was lifted across the entire perimeter. No problems whatsoever - smooth as silk.
I went back to the starting corner and slid the blade a little further (approx. an inch) so that there would be a triangular section large enough for my fingers to grab without cracking or breaking the film layer.
I began pulling from that corner slowly and gently making sure that my other hand was resting on the glass as a brace. Note that you should pull level with the screen not upward. I did not use a blow dryer and, as it turned out, it wasn't necessary.
When I got to the point where one edge of the film was about at the center of the short width, I started pulling down that side until I reached the opposite corner.
I then continued pulling lengthwise working from edge to edge, then center, always keeping my other hand pressing lightly on the display screen glass (for leverage). If you want to avoid palm prints, wear a soft glove or put a microfiber cloth under your hand.
In no time at all, the entire sheet of film was removed in one piece - no cracks, breaks, or other problems.
There was no glue residue on the glass, so I just took a microfiber cloth and rubbed it to a gorgeous shine.
I fired up the laptop and was amazed at the extra clarity and color -- and NO SCRATCHES!
Is there additional glare? Yes, of course, but I just tilt the screen to avoid it as I do with all my other devices.
I started working with the digitizer pen and, thus far, I see no evidence that it will scratch the screen surface which, I have been advised, is gorilla glass.
This entire process took less than 15 minutes. It has taken me longer than that to write it up!
I would be happy to answer any questions if there are any. Good luck!

I can't access my new playlist on my iPhone 4s when using iTunes Match

I recently spent 5 hours combing through my entire digital music collection to compile a playlist of all the songs I want to hear right now. It is 696 songs and 1.7 days long. Both my iTunes on my computer and my iPhone 4s have the latest version of the available software. I cannot see or listen to my new playlist on my iPhone. I have done the following (with no success):
1) I have updated iTunes Match.
2) I have powered off and powered on my iPhone
3) I have disable and re-enabled Match on my iPhone.
4) I have disable Match on my iPhone, connected my iPhone to my computer via a USB cord, transfered my playlist that way, then re-enabled Match on my iPhone. Still, I do not have access to my playlist. While this did have the desired the affect of putting the playlist on my iPhone, I then could not download the songs that were in the playlist onto my iPhone without Match or performing the laborous task of transfering each song individually via the USB cord. Not to mention the fact that I play for Match and expect it to work.
5) I have disabled Match on my iPhone, powered off and powered on my iPhone. Then, I re-enabled Match on my iPhone.
None of these actions have resulted in the desired occurance. I have read through the community and when I find someone who said they have fixed the problem, the person either has a minimal grasp of the English language and I do not understand that person or I have already completed the action that the person recommends.
I feel as though, since I pay for this service, that iTunes, i.e. Apple, should address my problem directly, rather than rely on the support of a community of people who are up the same creek, lacking a tool for forward momentum.
I somewhat feel as though I, and all others in a like-situation, should receive a refund for Match or, at the very least, some sort of compensation for time during which it has caused problems.
Additionally, I refuse to ever purchase an apple product again. They are not the company of quality that they used to be and we are all now just paying top dollar for an subpar product.

Additionally, when trouble shooting, and you disable iTunes Match on an iOS device you cannot simply re-enable it immediately. You must launch the Music app and let the content clear out before re-enabling the service.

New AP3 Version Has Muted Colors when Using External Editor

Hi All,
I'm having a frustrating problem. I just noticed that files that I've edited using an external editor (PS5) come back to Aperture with significantly dulled colors. At first I thought it was something that PS was doing. Then, I realized that this was happening to the new versions created by Aperture even before the external editor was completely launched.
Right when you select "edit with Adobe Photoshop CS5.app" Aperture creates a new version - right then I can see the colors being dulled/muted. I don't for the life of me know how to avoid this from happening.
My export settings are:
- 16 bit TIFF
- DPI: 300
- External editor color space: Adobe RGB (1998)
Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.

I'm taking a look now. It's perplexing (to say the least).
There is definitely a shift in the created-for-external-editor Version (I'm seeing the same color shift, almost exclusively in the middle- and high-tone cyans, but not quite to the same degree as you). I using my usual settings of 16-bit and "No Profile Selected".
Although the shifted version shows in Aperture, it does not show in PS-CS5. In other words, the shift is somehow removed when the file is opening in PS. When the file is closed in PS, the shifted version remains in Aperture.
The histogram is very different for the Versions in Aperture.
The color values shown in the Loupe and in the color meter (which shows in the Info Pane at the top of the Adjustments tab of the Inspector) are +the same+ for the Versions, though the histograms are different and the images are dissimilar.
I am seeing -- as best I can tell; it's clearly time to take notes -- inconsistent behavior. Sometimes a shifted Preview will not have a shifted full view. When I send a previously edited in PS Version back to PS, sometimes the shift disappears.
If I have the time later I'll make a chart. I can confirm that something is amiss. I don't edit that many images in PS, but I still do so regularly, and I have never noticed this before. (My images are in general neither saturated nor blue, so it is possible that there has been nothing to notice in those images. I have some very blue JPGs which I may try.) My hunch, though, it that this will end up being traced to something in the RAW conversion done to captures made with this camera.
*Anyone have any underwater RAW captures made with a camera other than a Nikon?*

Emoji Problem: Iphone 5s apps shut down when using emoji!! Any solutions?

When I click an emoji that I want to use the app I am using immediately shuts down. I can reopen it but the emoji use will shut it down every time. How do I make it so I can use them again!?

I had a customer with this issue and I tried to just close out of the texting app by double clicking the home button and closing the whole messaging application out. After that did not work I tried to do a complete reset (settings -> general -> reset -> erase all content and settings) to the phone and wiping it clean and even with it being wiped and nothing being on the phone the application still didnt work at all. Then I did a straight restore (different form of doing a reset on the phone done by holding the home button down and plugging the phone to the computer) . So I ordered a new phone for the customer and it came brand new in the box. When I turned it on and went and tested the emoji application it worked fine. After doing a back up and restore on the phone the emoji started doing the same thing when it came back on after restoring from a back up. I then did everything I did with the first phone on the NEW phone and with nothing on it tried to go to the emoji's and it AGAIN kept closing out. This is a software glitch of some sort and can ONLY be fixed by an update. I've been a phone tech for 2 years so I have a really good round about technical issues on phones and on androids and apple products. Most of the time an update always fixes the "little" (big to some people) issues.
Hope this helps a little bit!
