New trackpads are annoying

Just before i press to click the **** arrow sometimes/usually jumps a bit
Who else finds this annoying..

I'm addicted to my wireless mighty mouse... but I'm really liking the new surface. My old 17" felt too plastic-like, and I never really used it. It was only smooth after I cleaned it, and would stutter. My new pad seems smoother much longer. Of course I do clean it regularly using iKlear, probably once every 2 days. In between I use the microfiber cloth that came with it.
I'm gonna try to not use the mouse for a couple days and see if I can break free of the mouse altogether.

I have loaded Lion on my MacBook and the new trackpad functions work only on one ordinary account or user and not on the admin account. The trackpad preferences are well set. What can I do?

iCloud should still help you reduce some hard drive space. Just select "optimize" in the icloud tab in Mac Photo App preferences.
Granted, not the same as completely offloading your library to a back-up drive at your location.
Good Luck!

New podcasts are not marked as unplayed

Hello,
With the Podcasts app some new podcasts are not automatically marked as unplayed in the iPhone and iPad apps with iOS 8 and iOS 7 (there is no problem with iTunes in my mac/windows laptops).
I have realized that it depends on the format of the date of episode. For example, if the format is something like "22 nov 0014", the new episodes won´t be marked as unplayed and I have to do it manually.
However, if the format of the date is something like "15 of november", the new episodes will be marked as unplayed.
I have tried to modify the format of the date of the iPhone to U.S. (I am spanish), but nothing changed.
Do you have any idea about the reason of this behavior? Checking all the new episodes manually is very annoying.
Thank in advance.

I don´t know why but the problem was solved two days ago. Now, the format of the date in the app is exactly the same for all the podcasts, the "correct" one.
I guess that apple has modified something in the database to use the same format that it was using the iTunes app of OSX.

Just setting up new mac mini however system seems stuck on Bluetooth at startup and not seeing new trackpad or keyboard both wireless?

My new mac mini seems stuck whilst launching for the first time - looking for bluetooth peripherals - they are a new trackpad and wireless keyboard - both in pair mode so I can't see what the issue is..Do I really need to find wired mouse and keyboard to set this up?

Hehehe... Yes, a freshly-booting Mac from the factory can get confused with all that wireless traffic. In the past I've been able to get new Macs to pair with a keyboard and mouse/trackpad by switching the keyboard/mouse/whatever off and then on again while the computer is attempting to find something to pair with. The computer will attempt pairing with the newly-activated device and otherwise pretty much ignore all the other Bluetooth chatter is sees.
That said, whenever I set up a Mac for someone, I always bring a USB keyboard and mouse with me. It makes the process faster and easier. I then set up their Bluetooth input devices later, using System Preferences.

New Trackpads

1.) What types of things can you do with the new trackpads? Can you zoom in and out of any image in Preview and move it around like you can do on the iPhone? What other applications does it work with?
2.) How sensitive is the track pad? Does it seem to do these types of thing when you do not want it to by accidently touching it?
Thanks.

1) The types of things you can to with the new fancy trackpad are configurable in the Keyboard & Mouse perfpane in System Preferences. The perfpane has showy animations to teach you how to carry out the appropiate mouse gestures. For now, recent Apple apps recognize and honor all the gestures, especially the three-finger ones (the immediately previous iteration of MB's and MBP's already supported two-finger gestures). Third-party apps will need an update to use these new features.
2) It is all adjustable to suit your personal taste and ability.
One thing is certain: once seduced by this feature, you won't want to be without it.

Help files are annoying

Does anybody else think the way the help files for WebLogic Workshop are presented
now are annoying?
Anytime I need to search for something, I can't go back. The index frame is updated
so there is no back trail. If I go on a wrong path, I can't easily go back to
where I
started. I'm copy and pasting to text files just so I don't have to go thru the
pain of
using the GUI. I've talked to others using the GUI and they say the same thing.
I've see request for PDF files for the help docs and assume they are request for
the same thing - a way to go around the interface.
I'm starting to hack the html files, but this isn't reasonable.
Am I alone in this?

You're so not alone. I hate having to turn to the help files. And I
experience the same exact problems you do. I use them as a last resort
because of the usability issues. I also have issues with the content
itself. Once you get beyond the basics the help files are lacking in
content. For example, go try and figure out how to make use of a Scoped
Response.
It should get better, but in the mean time, this is all we have to work
with.

New trackpad options not working with Lion

It seems like many people are having problems with this option so I'll just make this short and sweet. It seems like all my new trackpad options for Lion aren't working (besides scroll). Not sure if I need to do some manual tuning for this or not, because I though it was all automatically changed. This is disapointing! Just want to know if this is a glitch or if I can to do anything to fix this.

Which trackpad do you have? The two button, one button or no button glass?

Using new trackpad with new iMac

Using new trackpad with new iMac, but can't seem to get the "touch function" to work. I still have to press firmly and click on the trackpad to get response. The videos show "touch" while I "firm press and click." Checked speed, cleaned it, and reset. No luck?? Ideas? Even took back to Best Buy and seemed to work with their display...

Assuming you are talking about tap to click, you would need to enable it. It is disabled by default. Go to settings and choose trackpad settings. Navigate to "Point and Click" tab and enable "Tap to Click".

After moving to iCloud I can only get my email through the cloud, no new emails are making it to my home computer. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this issue?

Keyboard and trackpad are not working, Keyboard and trackpad are not working

I'm using MBP 15" late 2008 with Maverick OS. A couple of days ago, the internal keyboard and trackpad are not working at all. I did all the troubleshooting. I even reformat it; installing the snow leopard and re-installing the maverick but no good result. I believe there's no problem with my keyboard because i can still do PRAM on my lappy. Everytime i'm booting up my MBP, it always looking for bluetooth trackpad and keyboard. I have not used those bluetooth peripherals from day 1 i've started using MBP. I just read on the internet about the same problem has happened on MBP 13" retina and APPLE fixed it by updating the software. I wish Apple will also do something for the old MBP to fix the intermal keyboard and trackpad problem.

Hi,
I scoured the web looking everywhere for a solution to this.
Exit Code 15
OSX 8.5 with Work@Home DVD media for CS6
I followed instructions to run 3rd party cleaner software
I tried the adobe removal tool
removing all copies of adobe software manually
installing from a new account, safe mode, plist everything suggested that i found did not work.
A colleague suggested that removing the below folder would allow the installation:
/Library/Application Supports/Adobe
They turned out to be correct, so i am passing this on, because this took far too many hours of my time.
Cheers,
Smokey

When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

Thanks for the follow up.
Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
Best wishes,

In IPhoto I changed movie dates after thumb nails were created in IMovie but the new dates are not showing up in IMovie. Is there someway to refresh the IPhoto event in IMovie?

Background: I'm transferring file folders from a Visa laptop via an external hard drive to my IMac. In the folders are photos and videos from different cameras. SO I first tried to import to IMovie but it would not recognize any of the files. So then I imported into IPhoto and both photos and videos were imported and I created events for each folder. When I first opened IMovie I had to wait for it to create "thumb nails". Then I could view the events in IMovie BUT the video clips are not together because they have vastly different dates and are mixed with videos from other events. I looked at the dates and said I can fix that in IPhoto which i did but those new dates are not showing up in IMovie. I think I need to somehow refresh the event data that Imovie is using but have not found how to do that in either IPhoto or IMovie.
I'm doing this on three events with about 100 photos and videos. But I have many 1000s more to do so need to know how to either fix this or delete these events, reimport, change the dates, then open again in IMovie. I'm sure that would work but I can't understand why changing the dates in IPhoto is not being reflected in IMovie.
Appreciate any tips or pointers.
OBTW this is my first question as a first time Apple owner.

It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did.
Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!

How can I resolve error code -54 in iTunes? I am using the latest iTunes. No new updates are available.

How can I resolve error code -54 in iTunes? I am using the latest iTunes. No new updates are available. I'm using iTunes 11.3 on a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8. I can't save my library in iTunes, the message just keeps popping up.

From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Although there is no formal list of OSX error code some of the old codes still apply to OSX .)
First, try simply restarting your computer.
Try quitting iTunes, then deleting the .xml (not .itl !) version of the library file in the iTunes folder (iTunes will generate a new one).
iTunes Library cannot be saved (Error -54) - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1912814 - various things to try.
