Preview app and Spaces not working

I use Spaces with a 2 row 3 column grid, for a total of 6 spaces. I assigned Preview to Space 4 - the lower left space. Every time I double click to open a screenshot png that resides on my desktop, Spaces moves to Space 6, while opening Preview in Space 4. This leaves me in 6 and then having to switch to 4 to view the png.
What's up with this strange behavior? Does it have anything to do with Finder being assigned to 6?

hi
i too have been having a problem with Preview in Spaces since the last 2 updated.
when i launch Preview (by double-clicking on a picture/photo), the program opens, its toolbar appears at the top of my screen, and the photo actually opens in the right Space (# 5). however, my screen remains in whatever Space i was in.
i have to manually go to Space 5 (set for Preview) for the photo to actually show up on screen. it won't switch over automatically, as all my other programs do.
i am clueless as to what to do about this. i already delete Preview from Spaces and reinserted it again.
argh...

  • Appletv remote app and airplay not working with iphone 4S

    I have the latest appleTV.  I have the remote app loaded onto my ipad3 and iphone 4S.  The app is not working with iphone 4S, nor do I get the airplay icon, hence I can't mirrior my phone on appleTV.  It used to work.  I have deleted and reloaded the app, and still nothing.  It worked fined until a month ago or so.  I have enabled home sharing.
    The app and airlplay are working just fine with the ipad3.  I have the ipad and appleTV hooked up to my router using 5Ghz, and the iphone only connects to the 2Ghz network on the same router.  I don't think this is the issue, because it worked before.
    Also, when I click on the remote app on the iphone, to add an itunes library, a code pops up on the phone, which I enter into itunes on my Win7 PC.  Nothing seems happed on the computer when I enter the code.  Could this have anything to do with recent appleTV or itunes updates?  Any possible solutions?

    It seems like I am having the same problem.
    I have the latest AppleTV 1080, imac 27", ipad, ipad2, 2 iphone 4, all with the latest iOS. After I have the AppleTV connected, a few problems showed up:
    (1) ipad plus iphones cannot airplay photo to AppleTV. After the play button and the grey screen displayed "the playing msg on AppleTV", nothing happened. it is the same for ipad/iphone.
    (2) iMac not Airplay to AppleTV
    (3) Airplay Mirroring not working
    The following are done:
    - Home sharing enabled
    - To test the devices are connected. I set a passowrd for Airplay and the ipad/iphone both requested for it so they are network and devices are ok

  • HT2693 Downloaded the piano keyboard app and will not work at all...also no sound.  This app only.    Refund??

    I downloaded the piano keyboard app....will not work at all....the screen comes up but no a tigon when trying to use...also no sound.

    Try a couple of basic troubleshooting steps,
    Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Delete the app and reinstall. You will not have to pay for it again as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Hold down on the icon until it jiggles, then tap the X on the icon to delete the app. Tap the home button to stop the apps from jiggling. Go back to the App Store purchased tab and download the app again.

  • Numbers and Spaces not working well together

    I'm having a problem with Numbers while using spaces. When I have multiple spreadsheets open between two different Spaces, Numbers jumps to the spreadsheet that was opened first when trying to enter data into the second... I hope this is clearer than mud.
    Anyway, I'm not sure why this is happening. It's VERY annoying, but I don't know if it's a Numbers issue or a Spaces issue. Suggestions?

    There is an old thread about a problem between Numbers and Spaces:

  • IPad 3: Apps and Internet not working

    Hallo,
    A week ago I noticed that none of the applications on my iPad is working. When you click on it they open but unable to connect to the server. I then noticed Safari is also not working. I checked the wireless connection, turned it off and back on again, restarted the router and the wireless shows that it is connected.
    Yesterday I took a backup and reset the pad by deleting everything and set it up from scratch, unfortunately this also didnt work.
    What could be the problem?
    Thank you

  • Photos app and Calendar not working correctly since upgrade.

    I was trying to insert a photo into a Word document. When I go to the finder the photos app is grey. I cannot chose it or find my pics. Why? I tried dragging and dropping. That doesn't work either.
    My calendar has been working fine since I upgraded, until today. I powered on today and my calendar is blank. I have TONS of stuff saved on there. I have gone through the preferences and checked all settings, everything looks fine. I even re-entered things just to let it refresh, to no avail. Any suggestions.
    I am on a Macbook Pro (early 2013).l
    Thank you

    Do you have a backup? If so, try this for Calendar.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library/Calendars and restore from the backup.

    Hi @Tom,
    Thanks for your response.  "Camera Uploads" is a folder in which Dropbox deposits all my photos and movie clips from my cameras.  It is a rather enormous folder likely exceeding several gigs of media.
    The file path is
    /Users/bpg/Dropbox/Camera Uploads/
    I really don't know the difference between "media" and "events".  I consider media a group or bunch of photos and movie clips.  I consider "events" a specific bucket or container of photos and movie clips.  If I should know more, a reference to documentation or an explanation of the difference would receive "This helped me."  If you could explain how to get FCPX working again (it just won't do anything beyond the splash screen), I will provide "This solved my question."
    Thanks for your help!

  • I got a$100 for mac apps when i bought my computer..try to buy some apps and its not working

  • Multiple apps and commands not working

    disk utility won't get past "gathering disk information". it's been going for 2 hours. i haven't made any changes. software update won't get past it's scan to see if i need new software. itunes will open but nothing happens after it stops bouncing. photoshop won't quit or force quit. any ideas.

    I found more info on my own.
    First, WDS is not required to stream to multiple speakers. Standard client mode (join a wireless network) works just fine provided you don't want the AE to extend the network serving as an access point for wireless or printer.
    Second, In Sharing (Sys Pref) setting Firewall rule to allow UDP on 6001, 6002 fixed the issue.
    Why didn't Apple document that in the AirTunes info that accompanies the Airport Express?

  • Dock dissapear, Exposse, Spaces not work

    Dock is dissapear, Exposse and Spaces not work, i had repaired permissions from disk utillity but all is de the same, restart and all is not working, command + tab either work, and if a try to minimizar a window nothings happend

    I am experiencing this same problem. I have been fine for a few weeks after my Leopard update, but then all of a sudden today I could not find my dock. I wasn't able to get it back at all, so I tried to shut down. It would not shut down so I had to do a hard shut down by holding in the power button. When it rebooted, the dock was still non-existent. I did some googling and learned it might be a corrupt preference. I then deleted the preferences, and immediately a dock (the original default installed) came up. It seemed ok for about 30 seconds, then it quit, and keeps flashing, reappearing, poking out. I deleted the preferences again, same result.
    I ran disk utility. It found some permissions problems and "repaired" them. Now the activity monitor shows that my dock is starting and quitting, as stated above, and I can't see it at all. It's gone.
    I am pretty upset about this, I rely on the dock heavily for my drag and drop applications in CS3.
    Any solutions to this yet?

  • I just updated to the new software and now my app Store is not working It is just a white blank page

    I'm having a similar problem.
    New iPad with iOS6 just downloaded.
    I cannot purchase any new items from the new Apple Store now!
    It keeps asking me to fill in CC details, asking for security number, but stays red when i fill in the 3 numerals and when I click done I get a Time Out message.
    This is not good Apple!!
    Looks as if I will have to use my iPad One to purchase from the Apple Store.
