Probably simple but need help~

My macbook wont let me log in. A message appears saying disk space full but i cant log on to delete anything. The spinning circle appears, screen goes white, then tells me to re enter my password. I want in on my computer!

You need to move or delete some stuff. Boot into single user mode to at least get access.

    I am un able to send mail as it gets stuck in my outbox. This is a recent phenomena. I am sure the solution is simple but need help?

    I looked everywhere for a solution - and I finally figured it out! Deleting my accounts didn't work, but here is what worked. This worked when my Gmail accounts were not sending properly. I'm not sure if it works for other e-mail services.
    1. While in Mac Mail, click "Mail" in the top left corner of the screen
    2. Click "Preferences"
    3. Click "Accounts"
    4. Select your account that isn't sending properly
    5. In "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)" there will be two options - Gmail & Gmail (offline)
    Make sure that "Gmail" is selected and NOT "Gmail (offline)"
    If you navigate to another section in Preferences, it will ask you to SAVE - make sure you save your changes!
    It worked for me, hope it works for you!

  • Should be simple but need help!

    Hi there,
    I'm new to AS3, and I'm trying to make a navigation menu. When you roll the mouse over a section, the colour changes to red. I've got this working for the first word, however there are more that need to be added. I have other menu items that I was the exact same thing to happen to, those being tracks_bg, drivers_bg etc. Here's my code that works fine:
    import fl.transitions.Tween;
    import fl.transitions.easing.*;
    about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver);
    about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, manageMouseOut);
    function manageMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
      //your over code here
        var color_transform:ColorTransform=about_bg.transform.colorTransform;
    color_transform.color=0xbf3a3a;
    about_bg.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeIn:Tween = new Tween(about_bg, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,0,1,1,true);
    function manageMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void{
      //your out code here
        var color_transform:ColorTransform=about_bg.transform.colorTransform;
    color_transform.color=0xffffff;
    about_bg.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeOut:Tween = new Tween(about_bg, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,1,0,1,true);
    I thought it would be okay to add more event listeners below about_bg, then copy the functions the functions and change the about_bg words to tracks_bg etc. This doesn't work
    Here is what I was trying to do:
    import fl.transitions.Tween;
    import fl.transitions.easing.*;
    about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver);
    about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, manageMouseOut);
    tracks_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver);
    tracks_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, manageMouseOut);
    function manageMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
         var color_transform:ColorTransform=about_bg.transform.colorTransform;
    color_transform.color=0xbf3a3a;
    about_bg.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeIn:Tween = new Tween(about_bg, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,0,1,1,true);
    function manageMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void{
        var color_transform:ColorTransform=about_bg.transform.colorTransform;
    color_transform.color=0xffffff;
    about_bg.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeOut:Tween = new Tween(about_bg, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,1,0,1,true);
    function manageMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
        var color_transform:ColorTransform=tracks_bg.transform.colorTransform;
    color_transform.color=0xbf3a3a;
    tracks_bg.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeIn:Tween = new Tween(tracks_bg, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,0,1,1,true);
    function manageMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void{
        var color_transform:ColorTransform=tracks_bg.transform.colorTransform;
    color_transform.color=0xffffff;
    tracks_bg.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeOut:Tween = new Tween(tracks_bg, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,1,0,1,true);
    You get the idea. Its long winded and doesn't work anyway. What do I do here? Thanks in advance for any help...

    Hey,
    Thanks for the answer. I've replaced my code with that and changed it to 'SimpleButton' rather than MovieClip and it works exactly as before. However, I'm still unsure of where to add the buttons. I'm using a master AS layer and not going in them individually.
    Here's what I've got now:
    import fl.transitions.Tween;
    import fl.transitions.easing.*;
    about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver);
    about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, manageMouseOut);
    function manageMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void
         var btn:SimpleButton = event.target as SimpleButton; //just assume that it is a MovieClip, change to whatever it is i.e. Button
         var color_transform:ColorTransform=btn.transform.colorTransform;
         color_transform.color=0xbf3a3a;
         btn.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
         var fadeIn:Tween = new Tween(btn, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,0,1,1,true);
    function manageMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void
         var btn:SimpleButton = event.target as SimpleButton; //just assume that it is a MovieClip, change to whatever it is i.e. Button
         var color_transform:ColorTransform=btn.transform.colorTransform;
         color_transform.color=0xffffff;
         btn.transform.colorTransform=color_transform;
        var fadeOut:Tween = new Tween(btn, "alpha", Strong.easeOut,1,0,1,true);
    I tried adding: tracks_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver);
                        tracks_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, manageMouseOut);
    ^ Below the about event listener lines and it says its an undefined property. Sorry, I'm a noob with this

  • Simple but need help

    hw can i display a page r content in the same page by clicking a href link ???
    Thanks in advance

    You can use RequestDispatcher.Include() method,
    Or you can try with the latest scripting tachnique AJAX for this.
    AJAX has the ability to put/modify contents in parts of the page even with out changing the url(that is in the same page itsely)

    jpatricio787 wrote: ... is it possible to use it with my white MacBook ?...
    OK so yes, but if, and only if:
    (1) your MacBook has a Firewire port (not all do)
        - and -
    (2) your old external iSight camera works (not all do)
        - and -
    (3) your MacBook is working properly.
    If you are not certain whether your MacBook model has Firewire, you can search MacBook Technical Specifications for your model.  Alternatively, check the  User Guide Manual that came with your MacBook for the information you need to be certain.
    If you are not certain that your old external iSight camera works, you can test it using the suggestions in this link.
    jpatricio787 wrote: ... if so how do I go about it ? ...
    Follow the instructions in your iSight User's Guide to connect and turn on the iSight.  Then launch the Apple app you want to use with your iSight.  If you need more information about using an app, search for "camera" (without the quote marks) in the Help menu choice for the app.

    If you need more direction, post back the specifics of what you still need.  We will offer further direction based on the details of your reply.

  • Purchasing MBA but need help on upgrades.

    Hello, I am purchasing an MBA, but need help on upgrades based on the following; I will be attending medical school in the fall, I take a wide range of photos of my family on my iPhone that I play with on certain apps and do store them in the cloud and computer, I have a medium iTunes libaray but will get bigger with the additional apps for school, I am a moderate gamer (I play games online as well as my kids do, but nothing that will take up a ton of space when downloaded like Assassins Creed) and I plan on running MS Office. I've already decided to upgrade to the 8GB but I can't decide if I should upgrade to the 512GB Flash or stay with the 256GB and upgrade from the i5 to i7 or stick with it. I don't plan on buying another until I graduate. I am new to the Mac World outside of the use of my iPhone which convience me to convert from my awful PC. Can you MBA experts relay some advice on a good route. I appreciate it, Thanks

    My rule of thumb is to buy the largest drive storage available. Especially since the Air models can't be upgraded to a larger size in the future. I also like to buy the most amount of RAM offer and as with the storage space on the Air models can't be upgraded once purchased. So Bite the Bullet and spend the money to get both the most RAM and the largest storage offered as neither can be increased later on.  Also I suggest you spend the extra money on the Applecare extended warranty because to fix any Mac once the standard warranty is over is very expensive. You have until the one year standard warranty runs out to buy the Applecare extended warranty.

  • All of my photos are displayed as BW because somehow I've saved a quick develop preset and it saves as BW.  This is for all of my photos.  I can individually undo them but need help in how to get rid of the preset so it goes to Default. thanks

    Go to the develop module and highlight all of the images in the filmstrip at the bottom of the screen. Then activate Auto-sync and click on the Reset button. That should reset all of the images to your camera default settings.

  • Getting an ipod but need help

    so i will travel to another state and i will be with my aunt that doesnt have a computer and of course no internet. so i wanted to know if there is any place where i can tranfer music to it. like an apple store? please i need help

    It would probably be best to find a family friend who can give you some time on their computer but here's some additional advice. By default the iPod is set to "automatically manage songs and playlists", and it links to a specific computer to update. To use it on multiple computers you need to change the update method to to "manually manage songs and playlists":
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing Your Songs Manually

  • Getting a new iMac - overwhelmed w info here but need help

    Hi,
    I'm getting a new iMac next week and need help with Blackberry Bold 9000 issues and syncing with iCal, etc on the machine.  I have been told that I can buy an app for about $30 that will sync the BB with the mac programs but reading here, I am confused - are some of the posts here and the KB notes related to syncing directly with the mac software or are they only for making a separate BB desktop for the mac?
    I have looked at several of the KB notes but I haven't found the answer yet.
    thanks.

    What’s the difference between:
    8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 4x2GB http://Add $200.00...
    (from 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB)
    and
    8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB http://Add $600.00
    4GB DIMMs are at present significantly more expensive than 2GB DIMMs. It's your choice whether to pay the extra money and have empty slots available for additional future memory expansion (without removing any existing memory).
    I presume 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel i7 is bigger, or more powerful than the 3.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo of the 21.5” iMac model. Correct?
    Generally yes. You can see benchmarks on places like Barefeats if you want to see comparison numbers.
    it appears the CD/DVD problem thing is not evident in the 27” model as it at least was in the 21.5” model. Right?
    I can't add anything to what I said on the subject previously.
    cracked screens upon opening the box of the new computer, were much more of a problem for the bigger, 27” models that the 21.5” models. Hopefully, Apple has taken care of that by packaging them more carefully.
    I haven't seen a report of any cracked screens in several weeks now. But with the gorillas the shipping companies tend to use, there are no guarantees. I once received a pallet-load of computers that the trucking company had driven a forklift blade through. So you never know how your computer might arrive. The prevalence of problems seems to have been alleviated, though.
    Regards.

  • I need a Rich Text Editor so I'm making one but need help.

    Hi all,
    I'm still figuring out the TLF and how it works so my question might seem dumb to some but any help would be great.
    I'm making a RTE because I need access to a TextFlow when the user is done editing the text. It wasn't obviouse that the halo RTE could do that so I'm making my own.
    The problem I'm running in to is that a user can select a range of text and apply something like italics to it. But if they don't have a range selected, say for example they just want to start off typing in italics, then how would I do that?
    I've tried doing this and it works for a range but not anything else
    var textfmt:TextLayoutFormat = rte.getFormatOfRange(null, rte.selectionAnchorPosition, rte.selectionActivePosition);
    textfmt.fontStyle = (textfmt.fontStyle == FontPosture.ITALIC) ? FontPosture.NORMAL : FontPosture.ITALIC;
    rte.setFormatOfRange(textfmt, rte.selectionAnchorPosition, rte.selectionActivePosition);
    I also tried this when there wasn't a range selected and it also didn't work
    var f:TextLayoutFormat = new TextLayoutFormat();
    f.fontStyle = FontPosture.ITALIC;
    IEditManager(rte.textFlow.interactionManager).applyContainerFormat(f);
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks.

    Never mind, I did the following and things worked for me.
    if (rte.textFlow && rte.textFlow.interactionManager is IEditManager)
               var f:TextLayoutFormat = new TextLayoutFormat();
               f.fontStyle = (italics.selected) ? FontPosture.ITALIC : FontPosture.NORMAL;
               IEditManager(rte.textFlow.interactionManager).applyFormat(f, null, f, null);                       
    If you want to add anything or explain anything I would appreciate that.

  • I want to try elements 11.  Can you talk to me about the free trials.  I downloaded apps., but need help. Thanks

    Hi,
    I spent the better part of this morning finding Adobe/Photoshop elements 11 tutorials.  I wanted to try changing faces on group pictures.  I downloaded what I thought would work.  Now I need help finding out if this "elements 11" is included with what I downloaded so that I may try to use this feature.  Please talk to me about this.
