Preview Feature went Missing

I recently up-graded to 10.6.4 and I noticed that my “Preview Feature” The one where you move your courser across your program icons on the bottom of your screen don’t work..
Also on Tab’s/Pulldowns that are in Safari and Firefox.
I have created a New Account, Used Safe Mode and Reloaded Snow Leopard 10.6.0 and performed the updates to 10.6.2 and the problem is still there.
Apple is looking into this to see what the problem is as of this writing but I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem?

As I rolled over the icons (Programs) on the bottom of the screen in the past it would tell you what the programs were above it: ie mail, address book and such.
This feature was called Preview or Preview Feature by two pple Tech's that I am working with.
I am also unable to "Preview" upon placing the cursor on any tabs in Safari and Firefox as I have been able to do in the past.ie: Att Yahoo: weather news tabs and finance tabs among some.
I even went to the Apple Store to confirm that These features still existed with the up dates and they were still there.
If you can be of any help, The tech's I talked to have never seen this happen and that is why they kicked it up to their Tech Dept, Witch we are waiting for a reply to fix it of go back to square one and erase everything and re-load the OS Leopard.

    Here you go:
    You should be able to hit the "Agree" button, if you are on an iPhone right now. On a Mac, you should just left click the button where it said "Accept". I hope this helped.
    To quit the app store, simply hit these keys:
    Than, you should come up with this window:
    Select the app store with:
              a) The up and down arrow keys
              b) Your cursor
    Than hit the 'Enter' button twice. This should close the app store. The force quit window is also accesible through the apple logo in the top left corner of the screen. It should say:
    Force Quit...

  • Lost Mode and Play Sound are "Pending."  However, iCloud indicates that it connected and backed up to iCloud at a date that is 1 week after it went missing.  How is this possible without locking (Lost Mode Pending an internet connection)

    Hi,
    My wife lost her iPhone two weeks ago while on vacation in London (cell service inoperative in foreign country).  Using Find My iPhone app on my device, I activated Lost Mode and Play Sound.  However, both are listed as "Pending," since it those actions require the phone to connect to the internet (wifi only due to no cellular data coverage.).
    We recently returned home and purchased a new iPhone.
    However, when looking to restore the apps/settings from her old phone using a previous iCloud backup, iCloud indicates that the old phone connected to iCloud and backed up the original phone at a date that is 1 week after it went missing.  How is this possible without locking (Lost Mode Pending an internet connection)?
    If the phone was activated and connected to the internet via a wifi signal, shouldn't it immedately lock, show up on the map, Play Sound, and send me an email that the phone has been found?
    I also read somewhere that if running iOS 7, the iCloud website interface enables you to track previous locations, for instance if the phone moves from wifi hotspot to hotspot.  Is that true?  If so, how do I do that?
    Thank you for your time, and have a great day!
    Sincerely,
    - Matt

  • Links (urls) inside a pdf document are not enabled by the New firefox pdf preview feature but are in Chrome & IE

    The new pdf preview feature in firefox desktop does NOT seem to activate any links (urls) inside the pdf meaning they are no longer clickable.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem.
    I send out product information using pdf's with clickable links inside (as do lots of businesses) and this loss of clickable links functionality is a problem.
    I also tried the same pdf files in IE and Chrome and their inline pdf previews keep all links fully working.
    I know the pdf preview in firefox can be deactivated and the adobe reader can be used instead but in reality lots of people won't know how to do this or won't be troubled to find out how and will just move on.
    Does anyone know if this feature is going to be fixed or supported or is it a deliberate security feature.
    Thanks.
    JP.

    Hey JPEdwards,
    The PDF.js team is still hard at work on the built-in viewer. It looks like there is already a bug on file for this and they are aware of it:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=821599
    Please don't post in the bug if you are just confirming that you've seen the problem too. That clutters the tickets ;)

  • My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them?

    My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them? I tried everything; such as auto hide the task bar. Even with this, I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar. I even tried the following and I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar.
    1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste dom and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars preference to switch it from false to true. By choosing true, you disable sites from deciding whether there can be scrollbars on a window, and Firefox uses its standard behavior for the page.
    If you want to always get other bars, here are the corresponding settings:
    Menu Bar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.menubar
    Navigation Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar
    Bookmarks Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.personalbar
    Please help.

    Can you post a screen shot?
    Taking a Screen shot; '''''Windows > Start >''''' search box '''''> Snipping Tool'''''.
    Save the picture(s) to your desktop. Now look at the '''Reply''' box below.
    Do you see the button under it that says '''Browse'''? Click it and then select
    the screen shot(s) from the desktop.

  • In FF 3.6, adjoining the back forward button, there was a dropdown which allowed me to jump to any page in the history list of the tab. This feature is missing in FF4. Is there any setting to enable it?

    In FF 3.6, adjoining the back forward button (on the left of address bar), there was a dropdown which allowed me to jump back/forward to any page in the history list of the tab. This feature is missing in FF4. Is there any setting to enable it?

    For me, I have the same question, this is a poorly done upgrade and I want to go back to 3.6

  • Report Server Integration Feature is missing

    Report Server Integration Feature is missing in site collection feature lists, so, i cannot activate it to get the SQL Server Reporting Services Content Types. No sure if it is related with a recent PU and CU patching.
    checked http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb677366.aspx ;
    finally, fixed by running a repair installation of sql server 2012 rs add-in for sharepoint. 

    Work for me by navigating to the "1033_enu_lp / x64 / setup" under the SQL Server 2012 SP1 (not the "SQL Server 2012 SP1" installation, but the update only pack), then execute rssharepoint and Repair. The first execution it failed (setup
    rolled back), a re-execution fixed the problem.

  • Could someone from support please post a credible fix for the fact that the Dreamweaver preview feature hasn't worked since FF3.6 came out, and still won't work in FF3.6.10

    Ever since FF3.6 came out there has been an issue with the Dreamweaver preview feature. As a result, I uninstalled 3.6 and am hanging out with 3.5.9 until this issue is resolved. Every time a new version of Firefox comes out I do a Google search to see if the issue has been resolved. I just did another search, and as of 9/23/10 with FF3.6.10 this issue is still not resolved. Could Firefox Support please provide a credible article about resolving this issue. People have been posting about it for years, and the only useful advice I have seen is for people to go back to 3.5.9 !?
    I am currently working with Mac OS10.4.11, and DW CS3, but I have seen people post about having this issue with Mac OS10.5 and DW CS4 and other configurations, so the problem seems pretty universal.

    A Dreamweaver CS user came up with a fix for Dreamweaver: <br />
    http://solutions.marketingmedley.com/
    There is a $5.00 fee for that Dreamweaver fix. That website and the fix are not associated with Mozilla in any manner. Support for that fix is provided by that that website via email.

  • Microsoft opens up about more Windows 10 preview features in the works

    Microsoft opens up about more Windows 10 preview features in the works
    Carey Frisch

    From that article:
    Belfiore did officially acknowledge some of the coming Windows 10 under-the-cover features that were disclosed early in a Microsoft blog post which was later pulled —such as the fact
    a Microsoft Account won't be required for login (users will be able to use Azure Active Directory for single sign-on instead).
    Is there seriously any possibility that a true local account won't be possible?
    That's "last straw" material.  Microsoft needs to be careful.

  • Camera raw 8.6 does not have new preview features

    Hi, I have just discovered that my version of Camera raw does not have the new preview features (the "Y" split) down the right corner.
    I have seen in some tutorial video that the new preview tool look like this,
    but my CR 8.6 still has the old preview tool like this,
    I am not sure why that is, I am running CR 8.6 on a mac with Photoshop CS6, is the new preview feature only available for CC?
    Thank.

    Yes, that is correct that photoshop cs6 and camera raw do not get the new features, just updated camera support.

  • Epson will provide Preview feature

    I am running 10.3.9 and my Epson Stylus Color 777 does not provide the Preview feature anymore...It provided that feature for the last four years. I installed no new software on the computor lately.....
    While in text doument, selecting Print and then preview I get the following dialog.....”Error while printing”....
    It will print more than one page... but no preview of what is on page 1,2 or 3 !!!! This occurs when trying to print a file from TextEdit, Tex-Edit Plus or from a Web page.
    This is the troubleshooting shooting I have done.....trying a print procedure after each step.....
    1. Turned power off, remove ac plug..powered up fifteen minutes later.
    2. Moved to the trash any preference that has Epson or print in the file name.
    3. Checked User/System pref’s using Preferential Treament
    4. Repaired Permissions and Repair Disk while booted up from Mac OS Install Disk.
    5. Booted in to Safe Boot
    6. Booted into Single User Mode and ran Applejack.
    7. Ran Open Firmware and Zap the PRAM..
    8. And finally Log out/in to my other User which I only use for testing.
    Now here is the good part....This text info was created in TextEdt and copy/paste into discussion/forum web site at a later time...
    but before I posted I tried on more thing...
    Turned power off, remove ac plug..powered up 5/6 hours later.
    That solved the problem.. I can now preview a document before I print!!!!!
    I am posting this to let you all know what worked for me and hope this will help someone else in the future.....
    george

    The troubleshoot procedure is listed in the last post in this thread
