Problems with 10.7.X - need some help please

Where to begin???
New mac mini with 10.7.x
Double clicking the top of the window won't collapse window like in previous versions.
Double clicking on a folder that is on the desktop opens behind the hard drive window.
When restarting or logging back in, all my icons are in a different place (scattered) than where they were when logging out or shutting down. This is in reference to my hard drive window. I have everything there on icon view. All other sub folders are list view, no problems with those. How do I get 10.7.x to remember the window view?
I imported all my mail and mailboxes and sorted them where I wanted them from a mac mini running 10.4.11 and at the next restart they were all back where  they were before I sorted them. I even threw out mailboxes that I didn't need anymore and they reappeared.
I am so confused. I almost feel like a bought a pc with a MS operating system.
And God forbid I need to reinstall the system, there is no way to do that because there is no dvd, let alone a dvd drive. And no I didn't sign up for icloud.
I know I sound kind of pi$$y, but I am frustrated and don't have a lot of time to devote to getting this straightened out.
I would really appreciate some assistance.

But there is a Recovery HD for just that purpose.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately you can only enable Find my Phone while you have the device, I'm afraid there isn't anything you can do now.

    Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

    This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
    I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
    Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
    Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
    Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
    Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
    Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
    It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
    Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
    Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
    Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
    Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

  • Hi! I got movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? need some help please!!

    Hi! I got Movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? When I start playing the movie a message pops up and says "a required codec is not available". I tried flip4mac, xvid, divx already and still not playing my video. need some help please!! thanks.

    Although vlc mentioned above is a much more powerful and better player you could try installing Perian if you insist on using the quicktime player.  It may supply the codec it needs.
    Not sure why you wouldn't be able to play straight avi files though in quicktime.

  • My airport problem has returned big time --Need some Help!!

    Aloha once again:
    I though that this was fixed by simply changing channels on my airport router, but that fix only lasted for a few days, but now it's back and even worse. Let me give you some background on this problem. Here's my original message concerning the problem:
    I have my Airport Router connected to the Internet via DSLcable. I then tie my two computers into the internet via their airport cards. For about 6 months this system has been working just fine. Recently my desktop computer quit listening to the router and can no longer connect to the internet. It shows no signal strength and the name of the network on the Airport is not seen in the "connect to internet" panel. The same Airport works just fine on my LapTop and I am using it right now to get this message off to the internet.
    I have fixed permissions, removed the airport card and cleaned the connector, the antenna plug and removed the system configuration folder from library preferences all to no avail!
    This problem has been hounding me, intermittently, for over a year now What can I do to remedy this??? HELP!!!!
    Dan Page
    Maui, Hawaii
    The suggestion to change channels, that came from this original request, worked but just for a very short time. Now I have to shut down my computer overnight to get connected and then it only lasts for several hours and the connection quits.
    I thought maybe heat was a problem, but the last time it happened I opened the computer and played a large fan right on the card. This did not help. I shut it down for the night and it was fine the next morning for about 2 hours.
    One new data point; if I turn off just the airport on my laptop computer overnight, that will fix the problem for a short time also.
    Still need some help!!!
    Dan

    First, power off both the Time Capsule and AirPort Express.
    Wait a few minutes, then power up the Time Capsule first, and let it run for a few minutes.
    Temporarily, move the AirPort Express to the same room or close proximity to the AirPort Express and power it up.
    If the Express powers up correctly, power it off again and move it approximately half the distance between the Time Capsule and the general area that needs more wireless coverage. Try to minimize obstructions like walls, ceiling, heavy furniture, etc as much as possible. 
    Please report on your results.

  • Problems with my eMac. NEED YOUR HELP!

    Hai,
    I'm new right here, and i'm not very good at english, but I have problems with my eMac so I hope that someone can help me!
    When I boot my Emac there's a screen that says:'
    'to continye booting, type 'mac-boot' and press return.'
    When I typed mac-boot I pressed enter(because I don't know the return-button) and then I get this screen:
    'panic(cpu0): Unable to find driver for this platform: PowerMac6,4'
    and other text with a lot of numbers.
    Also in that screen stands:
    'you need to restart your computer. hold the power button for several seconds or press the restart button'
    I hold the power butten for several seconds and I put the computer on again, but than I'm getting the same texts&things.
    So, can anyone help me, or do I have to go to the Macstore?(Does anybody know how much that costs?)
    Thanks for reading& maybe helping!
    Kisses from Amsterdam!

    There are so many unknowns here it is hard to know the right advice to give.
    +I didn't get any disks with it. Do you know if I can buy them somewhere?+
    You may be able to get 10.4 Tiger disks from an Apple store, but that depends on where you live. Apple usually only sells their latest OS which is currently 10.5 Leopard, but I would think your eMac would be best with 10.4 Tiger. If you can get them from an Apple store, ask if they give a student discount if you are eligible as that can be a saving.
    Normally every Mac, _new or used has its own disks,_ including an Apple Hardware Test CD. These disks are useful if you want to reinstall your operating system, but also useful for diagnostics and and some software repairs. The thing is, you could get hold of some disks and still find your machine has something broken in the hardware, and you will have spent money on the disks for nothing.
    It would be better to determine if the computer is fixable before you purchased any OS disks.
    Do you know anyone with an Apple computer who has some disks you could borrow? Or do you know someone who has an iBook which you could use in
    FireWire target disk mode to connect the two together , and use the Disk utility in the iBook to run a test on your hard drive.
    Even without a disk, you could still try starting up your computer in single user mode and perform some of the steps in this article.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1411?viewlocale=en_US
    which assumes you have 10.3.9 which you may have seeing as it is an old computer.

  • I'm not that good with computers and I need some help....

    I downloaded Adobe Reader 9.3.3 for windows 7 so I could print out sheet music (pdf file). When I try to open it using Adobe Reader, this pops up:
    "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association for this program in the Default Programs control panel"
    and I need to know what to do, to fix it. It might be a small problem, but I have no idea what to do. so could someone tell me in detail, how I'm supposed to fix this?                                                                     thanks,

     Actually, when I open Adobe Reader (just by itself) the same message appears, and if I close the pop-up, adobe reader closes.
    That is very unusual - it appears that the Reader is not installed correctly.  Can you open Control Panel, then Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall Adobe Reader.  Then reinstall it from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.3/enu/AdbeRdr933_en_US.exe

  • The mail application on my I-Mac dates all mail, whether sent or received, as 5th (of whatever month it is). The computer clock is working, so it's not that. And the time seems to be right. I have no problem with my MacBook. Can anyone help, please?

    The computer clock is fine. I have no problem with my MacBook - just with the I-Mac. Any ideas, please?

    OK Vicky, good clues...
    See if this helps...
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.

  • I am the biggest "Newb" on this site,  and I really need some help please..

    Ok, the short of it.... I started training on Database programming about 2 weeks ago. I still don't really know a thing, or even understand the concepts. Now, my boss wants me to fix a bug in Oracle, and I haven't a clue. The ONLY help I've gotten was a link to this forum, and a speech about how I need to help myself. I told him I have the same chance of fixing anything, as monkeys typing hamlet. Anyone up for a challenge?
    When I go to Application System, then Application Entry and enter the password a dialog box appears.... "FRM-40039: Cannot attatch library Empower while opening from APPUSRAPP."
    That's what I have to fix. I have no clue. I don't even really know how to click around in this program. Please help, someone.
    UPDATE: I've been told that everyone's pretty much going to be a jerk to me for asking this, and I'm currently searching old threads and can't find a way to delete this one I posted. So, you could just ignore the post, or jump in and be the internet tough-guy and tell me what I already know.... I'm a newb.

    As this appears to be a Forms error (the error begins with FRM) you might get a better response by posting this in the Forms forum:

  • 2100 WLC 1130 APs - need some help please

    It's been about 5 years since I took my CCNA course and could use some help on a wireless set up for church.
    We have a Catalyst 3550 that is running fine, just a few VLANs, including 30 for public wireless.  I've then got a 2100 WLC and (3) 1130 AP's.  After much head banging, I've got the WLC set up correctly (i believe)
    VLAN 30 is a 10.0.3.x segment
    switch is 10.0.3.1
    WLC mgmt interface is 10.0.3.20 - connected to the switch on port 1
    WLC ap mgmt interface is 10.0.3.21
    APs pull 10.0.3.30, 31,32. - they are plugged directly into the switch
    I can obviously see the APs while in the WLC GUI. 
    The AP's SSID don't show up wirelessly.  The AP's circle is red/orange
    The detail on the AP in the WLC shows them operationally down.
    What additional information can I provide?
    Much thanks.

  • Really really need some help please.

    lost all my audio. nothing plays anymore. cant even hear the trash empty any more. no itunes, nothing. no dvd audio. also noticed itunes wont play songs anymore, progress bar just sits there. also movies on youtube dont play anymore. when i try to turn up audio i get a zero symbol with a slash thru it. im stumped. help please. thanks

    Whatever has happened, I've assumed it just happened and is systemic.
    To start: Go to Applications/Utilities and run Disk Utility, select your startup drive, and click on the Repair Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
    If that works, you're done, if not, pull out your Tiger startup DVD, insert it, select the Installer, and Restart your Mac from the DVD. When you get to the installer screen, go to the menus at the top of the screen and select Disk Utility, and this time click on the Repair Disk button. This will check your file system integrity and repair it.
    When you've done that, post back.
    If those don't work, you may need to do an Archive & Install, from this same DVD. This will preserve your accounts/apps/data, but will require you to repeatedly run Software Update to bring everything current again.
    Good Luck...

    You have a generic problem that is illustrated by looking at your 'firstNameField'. You define just one 'firstNameField' variable and then allocated a value several times so that the content of 'firstNameField' add to card2 using
    card2.add(firstNameField);
    does not refer to the same object as is used in your action listener
    firstNameField.setText("");
    because in your card3 section you overwrite the original content ot the reference.
    You can fix this by sharing a Document e.g.
    Document doc = firstNameField.getDocument();
    firstNameField = new JTextField(doc, "", 10);
    card3.add(firstNameField);
    for each time a new field is reqired.

  • DVI to TV problem. I need some help please

    OK, Im running a MAcbook pro latest OSX all updates etc... In the past i have been able to plug in the adapter to the DVI and run on end of an RCA cable out of it to the RCA video in on any tv. I would normally just hit f7 and the display would be seen on the tv. The problem is now I can get a picture on the tv what so ever. I have tried the detect display feature and no luck. I have tried multiple tvs and cables..no luck....
    No when i connect to an external computer monitor using the other DVI adapter everything is fine on the external monitor.
    I believe the problem started when I hooked up the external computer monitor. It seems some setting has changed that will only recognize the the computer monitor.
    I don't think its the DVI to to tv adapter having a problem as it's newer..never been abused or anything like that... Im very confused and frustrated any help would be appreciated
    thanks

    This means that the phone was previously unlocked by unauthorized methods and becomes re-locked whenever you update or restore the iOS. 
    Only the original carrier can unlock your phone by authorized means that will be permanent.  Many carriers do not offer unlocking, particularly if you don't have an account with them.

    Well,
    I took the liberty of rewriting your code to make it readable, and expurgated most of the carp... what you've got there boils down to a really complicated-azzed implementation of cat.
