Re: Desktop view option with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion

After clean istall Lion and back up from time machine I had an issue with my viewing option on the destop files! After setting up the way I want my desktop files (Snap to Grid etc..) although they stay where they are while I am working, however, when log out, shut down or restart the computer back again, I find my destop files (eccept the hard drives)  repalced/moved around by themself on the desktop. I thougth the clean install Lion will clear the proplem, but did not. Is there someone who can help with this issue? Thanks

Sorry I can't help with the jumping around, but having lots of desktop icons causes the system to slow down.
Although, maybe they've improved that process a bit.
I think Snap to Grid maybe causing the issue, though. With Snap To Grid off, holding down the command key while dropping will cause the icon to snap to the nearest grid. That may be a workaround until it is fixed.
Hoping that Apple notices the issue will fail. Try providing feedback or using the Bug Reporter in the Apple Developer connection (I think you can still set up a free account to do this).

  • How do I add desktop view option to mobile version

    I have a website with a desktop & mobile version. I would like to add an option to the mobile version to view the desktop version on their phone and then a way for them to get back to their mobile version. What's the best way to do this. I tried this using hyperlinks but found that after viewing the desktop on my phone it stayed on desktop view after returning to the mobile platform. Do I just add a hyperlink to the desktop version to get back to the mobile version?

  • Is there a printable view option in Mac Mail?

    Hi, If I print out a email I get the full header. Is there a printable view option or a way I can select a mail option to not show full header, at least while I print out a email. The way it is now, I end up with one full page of header information and a second page with the email message. So the email message there is no date because it's on the first page with the header.
    Help
    Thank you
    dmprisk

    Welcome to the Discussions.
    While this would not be handy for me, if left the same all the time, you can Show Header detail to None in Mail Preferences/Viewing, and then print. Not very useful except with a few messages.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 wireless print option with Mac OSX Snow Leopard?

    Hi My 'old' 8600 printer died and I purchased a new one. I did not set up wireless communication with the old printer but am interested in doing so with this new one, or at least having that option.
    I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8  Snow Leopard. The installation CD that came with the new printer says it's for OS X v10.6, Lion or Mountain Lion. Is it compatible with my system?
    Thanks!

    Hello KelliMK, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are looking into compatibility information.  The Officejet Pro 8600 is compatible with Mac OS X 10.6.  The software disc should allow the full install without issue. 
    As for the wireless setup, I would recommend following this document on HP Officejet Pro 8600 All-in-One Printer Series - Installing the Printer Software on a Wireless or W...

  • E2100L Cisco Connect and Network Magic compatibility issues with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion

     When you will release the latest version for Wireless router Linksys E2100L?, because I bought a MAC with Lion and I can´t use my Router.
    Regards,
    Daniel

    Older versions of Cisco Connect for Mac computers have compatibility issues with the latest release of Mac OS X (10.7 “Lion”). Only Cisco Connect versions 1.4.11222 and newer are compatible with the Lion operating system.
    Here is the link to ensure that Cisco Connect can be installed on your Mac: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=a4e763be954243cfa0ab960c0fac7105_KB_23xxx_EN_v1.xm...
    There is no such information about the release of Cisco Connect for E2100L for the Mac OS X (10.7 “Lion”) compatibility, so you need to wait for further release of the firmrware for E2100L. 

  • Does the macbook pro come with mac os x v10.7 lion

    does the macbook pro come with max os x v10.7 lion?

    It depends when it was manufactured - if you should choose to buy a refurbished unit from Apple , it may still have Snow Leopard (but you would of course qualify for a free upgrade to Lion) or, it would also be possible to buy a new one from a reseller with Snow Leopard if he had the MBP for a while, so it would be adviseable to ask.

  • Konica Bizhub c250 - NO Tabloid option with MACS

    Workgroup environment with PCs and MACS and a Konica/Minolta Bizhub c250. PCs can print to 11x17 BUT the MACs cannot. Downloaded drivers from Konica/Minolta for OS v10.4 BUT you can not select 11x17 page. Created a custom size of 11x17 named "Tabloid" but not selectable when you want to print from the MAC.
    Any suggestions or clues??

    Maybe an open source driver will work?*

    Minolta's printers aren't exactly that common so finding their drivers may be more difficult than let's say HP, Canon, Xerox, or Epson.

  • Is there a problem using Acrobat Reader plugin Find with Mac OS X v10.7 Lion?

    I've recently noticed that the Find function is not working when I am viewing a pdf with Safari 6.1.1 and OS 10.7.5. I get a "Not Found" result no matter what I enter, even when I'm sure the search phrase is in the pdf.
    Is there a preference in Safari I can change to make this work?

  • ICloud OK with Macs running Mavericks and Mountain Lion?

    I have two Macs on Mountain Lion currently, but only want to upgrade one of them to Mavericks.
    Will iCloud still work seamlessly?
    Thanks!

    Correct. iCloud is compatible with OS X Lion and later, so you won't have any problem using iCloud in OS X Mavericks even if one of your Macs is using OS X Mountain Lion. The only thing that iCloud adds in Mavericks is iCloud Keychain, so you can't use it with your computer with OS X Mountain Lion. Apart from that, everything should be working correctly.
    Before upgrading, make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

  • Permanently Set View Options

    Greetings. I'm looking ease a minor frustration that occurs when using ARD 3.3.2. In the app, I have a number of scanners, each representing a specific range of IP addresses. When viewing any one scanner, I like to customize the view options to see only: Computer Name, IP Address, Current User, User Status and Current Application. However, once these preferences are set for each scanner and I quit ARD, the View Options are then reset to Default when relaunching. Is this considered standard operation? The issue persists beyond complete reinstalls of ARD. Thanks.

    I think I have found the fix for this problem. I thought there was only one way to change your Remote Desktop view options by selecting View from the Menu Bar and then selecting View Options. There is another way and your selections stay. In the Remote Desktop window Control Click on the header bar of the columns that has the Name, IP Address, Mac OS Version, ARD Version, etc and in the box that pops up you can put a check mark next to or remove the check mark from columns you don't want listed. I've quit ARD and re-opened it and the list of columns I want to show is staying. It's not defaulting back to the default view setting.

  • Changing View Options for only 1 folder

    I tried changing the View Options for Documents so that I can see which ones were modified recently, however it applies the Date Modified option to every single folder, including my home folder.
    Is there anyway to just change the View Option to a single folder at a time. For example, I'd like to have Documents by Date Modified, but my home folder (user folder) to be arranged my name so that all my folders show up alphabetically.
