Screen brightness to dim and unable to adjust using slider and buttons
hey guys ive had my macbook air about a week now and one night the screen decided to turn really dim all of a sudden i assumed this was due to me shutting down however the next day wen i turned it on again the screen was just as dim and when i try to adjust the brightness setting via the slider in prefrences or the f1 and f2 buttons nothing is happening,
have any of you had the same problem if so how did you get it solved
cheers
you have to reopen the display adjustment in the System preferences, and Un-click the Automatically Adjusts Button. I kinda like this feature, but not all do, its an Apple thing, takes a bit of getting used to, saves the eye strain. I have noticed, as I am blind in my right eye, and tunnel vision in my left. that this is really good , and helps me a lot..
Play with the MBA , you'll figure it out..
Have fun

I have iphone 4s 32GB ,the volume of the ringer and alerts can't be adjusted using the volume buttons and lock sounds and keyboard clicks available, but all not appear ??!!!!!!!
Hi nitramred,
To start troubleshooting this issue where you are unable to adjust the volume after receiving a call, please go ahead and first force close all of the apps currently running on the device, and then reset it by following the steps in the articles below.
iOS: Force an app to close
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
Take care,

I updated Adobe flash player and now i'm unable to open Opera and I have to use the power button to shut the computer down.
How do you delete programs?
thanksIf Flash Player is indeed the problem I would suggest using the Adobe Uninstaller.
Have you tried using a different browser such as Chrome, Firefox or Safari to see if they have a problem with Flash? -
Why and how do we use CHAIN and ENDCHAIN
Why and how do we use CHAIN and ENDCHAIN
Hi,
To ensure that one or more PAI modules are only called when several screen fields meet a particular condition, you must combine the calls in the flow logic to form a processing chain. You define processing chains as follows:
CHAIN.
ENDCHAIN.
All flow logic statements between CHAIN and ENDCHAIN belong to a processing chain. The fields in the various FIELD statements are combined, and can be used in shared conditions.
CHAIN.
FIELD: <f1>, <f 2>,...
MODULE <mod1> ON CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
FIELD: <g1>, <g 2>,...
MODULE <mod2> ON CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
ENDCHAIN.
The additions ON CHAIN-INPUT and ON CHAIN-REQUEST work like the additions ON INPUT and ON REQUEST that you use for individual fields. The exception is that the module is called whenever at least one of the fields listed in a preceding FIELD statement within the chain meets the condition. So <mod1> is called when one of the fields <fi> meets the condition. <mod2> is called when one of the fields <f i> or <g i> meets the condition.
Within a processing chain, you can combine individual FIELD statements with a MODULE statement to set a condition for a single field within the chain:
CHAIN.
FIELD: <f1>, <f 2>,...
FIELD <f> MODULE <mod1> ON INPUT|REQUEST|*-INPUT
|CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
MODULE <mod2> ON CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
ENDCHAIN.
The module <mod1> is called when screen field <f> meets the specified condition for individual fields. <mod2> is called when one of the fields <fi> or <f> meets the condition. If you use the addition ON CHAIN-INPUT or ON CHAIN-REQUEST with FIELD <f>, the condition also applies to the entire chain and module <mod1> and <mod2> are both called.
In cases where you apply conditions to various combinations of screen fields, it is worth setting up a separate processing chain for each combination and calling different modules from within it.

How can I make the background one solid color? It is too difficult and noticeable when I use the retouch button and try to erase all the creases in my backdrop. So, how can I have just a solid white background?
When talking about a specific image posting the image may be useful.
One can use a Layer Mask and add a white Layer underneath. -
I bought a $15 app GTA Vice City a while ago and I just started using it and it doesn't work. I checked all the requirements and my laptop meets all of them. I also have contacted Rockstar Games and they didn't help. Can I get my money back? Its frustruating.
Hi...
Apple's policy states that, "all sales are final" > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
But since you are not getting any help from the developer, you can use the email form to contact Apple and ask for a refund > Apple - Support - Mac App Store - Contact Support.
No guarantees. -
I am from turkey and Iphone4 can be used Turkcell and vodafone(carriers) in turkey but i bought my iphone in usa and it only works with at&t.Is there anything i can do to use my iphone with turkcell or vodafone?
No. Return it and get your money back if still within the 30 day return window. All US iPhones are carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked.

If you log out of your apple ID on your iPAD mini and let someone else use it and they use facetime. How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs? I do not want them to have access to my history. How can I prevent that and they can see their own? Or is the history associated with the iPAD mini itself and not the actual icloud user account?
You are logging out from
Settings -> FaceTime, right?
My guess would be though, that the FaceTime history is stored locally on the device, so anyone using it will see the entire device history (I cannot imagine that FaceTime uploads the history to an Apple server anywhere - I'm sure it is just logged locally on the device - based on my iPhone and iPad show completely different histories, for example). -

I use Visio 2010 in windows 7 64bit
and I have this problem:
whenever I try to save a diagram to JPEG (save as>JPEG) and then close Visio using the X button on the upper right corner, then Visio hangs.
The jpeg pic is saved ok, but Visio hangs permanently: I have to close it using task manager.
On the other hand, if after I save into jpeg, I press whatever other button in Visio (from ribbon) then it works ok, and afterwards I can close Visio with the X button
- but, if I try to close Visio with the X button right after saving to JPEG, Visio will surely hang.
Thank you
PS. Visio 2010 is fully updated (File>Help reports:
Visio 2010 Premium (v14.0.6111.5000) SP1 MSO (14.0.6112.5000) 32bit)Update:
The problem reappeared/wasn't completely solved:
So, I also went to Control Panel>add/remove programs, rightclick on Adobe Acrobat X> change installation and untick the PDFMaker item, in order to uninstall it:
that's because initially, even after I had unticked "PDFMaker for Visio AddIn" in COM Add-Ins,
in File>Options>Add-Ins tab, on the Active Application Add-Ins part (yes, on ACTIVE Add-Ins)
I was still seeing about 5-6 lines, all having items containing PDFMaker for Visio AddIn" [PDFMVisio.vsl].
In other words, the PDFMVisio.vsl file was loaded even if unticked!!
Then, after uninstalling the add-in, the problem was finally fixed at last!
Thank you so much for this additional information! I was having the same problem. I did what you instructed, and the problem has now disappeared! -
My iMessage and Facetime won't activate, says waiting for activation. All photos and contacts are restored, using email and wifi only, no service. Only issue is date and time will not automatically set.
Howdy eewebe13,
So you have no cellular service but are on Wi-Fi yet iMessage and Facetime are waiting for activation.
Please step through this article for that scenario.
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I need help to solve this problem.
It's possibly a hardware issue. You could try a reset and see if that helps : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. If that doesn't fix it then you could try restoring to your backup and/or resetting back to factory defaults, but you will probably have to contact Apple.

Screen Brightness Keeps Dimming
My new Sony SVS131290X laptop will not keep it's screen brightness lit. It keeps dimming by itself. I have tried setting the function + F6 key, going to power options and adjusting the brightness there, and also tried advanced power options. It dims after 30 seconds. Has anyone else had this problem?
Hi everyone, I just recently purchased a Sony Vaio Pro 11" and I have been struggling with this issue the past 2 days, and now I have a proposed solution! Prior to doing this I had tried two things (outlined below) and neither of them fixed the issue for me, so if you are in the same boat this might work for you too. WHAT WORKED for me was going to the graphics properties control panel:Right click on the Desktop home screen and select "Graphics Properties" > click the "Power" tab > click "On Battery" > and under "Display Power Saving Technology" click OFF That fixed all my auto-brightness adjusting woes. Hopefully this helps someone else The two steps I took that didn't quite work:1. Went to Vaio Control Center > Image Quality > turned OFF the auto brightness = still had the dimming issue2. Went to the Start screen, scrolled down to the apps section and in the search bar > typed services.msc > opened up Services > clicked "Sensor Monitoring Services" > went to the drop down menu and changed from "manual" to "disabled" and restarted my laptop = still had dimming issue

Unable to adjust bass/treble, and channels are coming out of both-Audigy SE model: SB0
Greetings. I just installed a fresh new copy of Windows XP Professional-- and decided it was a good idea to upgrade from my Li've! value from 999 to a better sound card...At least so?I hoped. I purchased this card from Wal-Mart the other night, and if it's anything like the other sound cards purchased at mega-retailers, I am going to be in for a huge headache, aren't I?Anyway, to the point:? When I run creative diagnostics, both the left, and the right channel, come out of the left and right, and right and left channel, respecti'vely... I can take one ear off left, and hear "left channel" in my right channel, and vice versa. Problem #2: I am unable to adjust my bass or my treble on the sound card. I checked the FAQ, but I didn't see anything terribly relevant, unless of course I am just blind. I look forward to any help I can get from you great peoples. Thank you for reading my message. SkylerakaJaldarith
What about the inability to adjust bass and treble? I google'd a bunch of different phrases about Audigy SE cards, and it seems they don't have that functionality. Am I missing something here?I installed the EAX control panel and that didn't help. Edit: Okay, so the left and right channel part is my problem-- but I have a headset by Sennheiser that has such a small headphone jack, it has to be halfway plugged into the sound card, in order for me to get full audio. I'll see if I can get that taken care of. The bass and treble still bother me though. Message Edited by Jaldarith on 2-07-200605:5 PM
