Screen moves to right when attempting to click on screen
Since upgrading from Mountain Lion, many times when I try to click on the screen, the entire screen moves to the right a half inch or so. I cannot click on the screen until the screen moves back to it's original position. I never had that trouble with Snow Leopard.
Looks like you have spyware/adware installed.
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL twice to reboot the computer and then in Firefox, go to Tools | Add-ons | Plugins and disable '''My Web Search'''. See this Wikipedia article on the subject: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_web_search
You also need to update a few plugins. See this Adobe security advisory: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advisories/apsa11-02.html
Here are the update links you need:

I am unable to play videos in iPhoto that I took on my iPhone. They are in .mov format, but when I double click on them, per the help instructions, nothing happens.
You can't play movies in iPhoto. But, you can in quicktime, which is installed along with the OS. Just double click on the .mov file and quicktme should start.

I think there was one more, but I could not find the topic again. This seemed to be happening during the last 24 hours (09/15/07). I don't know if this is isolated to my user account, or if others are also affected. I'm not concerned too much about the "points" but thought it should be reported.Hi Kenichi!
Here are two other previously posted Topics, in Feedback About Discussions, where this issue has also been reported.

HT204492 My apple tv remote will not move to right when right arrow depressed.
My Apple TV remote right arrow does not work. All other arrow directions work. Has anyone encountered this problem and know how to remedy this situation?
As Murphy always does, I went back and followed, VERY CLOSELY, the instructions for re-pairing the remote. And guess what, it works now! A Christmas miracle? I doubt... just good 'ole Apple technology. Anyway, the remote works!

How can you watch itunes purchased movies on apple tv. A click on to movies then into purchase thn a click on a movie i want to watch then my apple tv box light starts going on and off plus the screen is blank

Really? I need to check that out!
You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

Was wondering if anyone can help...I am not very computer friendly but want to be able to edit my photos, use them as jpegs, order prints etc. When I double click on a thumbnail ( am presuming the thumbnails are the small photos ) I get a grey screen with an exclamation mark on it. I cannot drag the thumbnail onto the desk top it just pings back. This doesn't happen with all the thumbnails and has been a problem since we upgraded to snowleopard. I recently reinstalled photos from the memory card from my camera and they are alright. I am presuming that the old photos are stuck in there somewhere if only I knew the right buttons to press to get them out. Thanks, Jane Thomas
Easiest: Restore from your back up.
Otherwise:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption. -
Hello.
I need help deleting videos, tv shows, and movies downloaded from itunes. I have followed the instructions to delete from the macbook, I selected the videos I wanted to delete and right clicked to delete. Nothing happens. When I double click on the video it still starts playing. I also followed the instructions to delete the videos from the iphone by swiping from left to right with nothing happening. I opened the videos on the ipad and there is no edit selection like in the instructions on the support page. Can you please tell me how to permanently remove this content so it doesn't try to copy from each device when I want to back up the Iphone and Ipad to my macbook. Thank you.Hi Shawninglewood,
Welcome to the Support Communities!

Authentication window not populating when attempting to move a file
When attempting to move a file that will need administrator authentication, the authentication window to enter a password does not populate. Thus, I am unable to move the file.
Linc,
I didnt get back with you this week as we've discovered a number of other "interesting" issues with the iMac. They all seem to (possibly) be related to privilege issues: 1. Cannot move photos to ~Library/Desktop Pictures, 2. Cannot access System Preferences/Security&Privacy (click on the lock to make a change and the User Name and Password "Unlock" window will not appear.) 3. When attempting to install the MS Office For Mac update, the installer will not respond. 4. Cannot boot from an external drive. The computer wants to reinstall the OS X Yosemite when attempting to boot from an external drive. -
My desktop icons mysteriously moved from the left to the right of the screen, and scrambled the order. When I try to drag them back to the left, they pop right back to the right when I release the mouse. What can I do to place them where I want them on the screen?
A LOT of them dont appear.
What do you see in the window when you click on those? A blank, black window? An exclamation mark? What? -
When i double click a photo in iphoto to edit, the screen goes black
when i double click a photo in iphoto to edit, the screen goes black. I'm using 10.7.5 with iPhoto 9.4.2. Can anyone help?
There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
I recently spilled a slight amount of water on my Mac Book Pro. I thought I was able to remove and wipe the majority of it off but I believe some may have seeped between my keys. Ever since, keys on my keyboard do not work or they type in all caps, my trackpad will select multiple objects when I click once (i.e. I attempt to open an application and it will select 5 applications and open all), when I use my hot corners to move between windows, the window I click on will 'zoom in' a very slow speed.
Could this all be a result of water damage? Or something further?
Please let me know if more information is needed.
Thanks,

I've rented & downloaded a movie on my computer in itunes, but it does not show up on my Apple TV. Everything else shows up on Apple TV, including my computer's movie library. When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it and asks if I want to rent it again. No, I just want to watch it.
Unfortunately I have to if I download it on my computer. I have rented itunes movies before directly using the Apple TV and it worked just fine and I could stay in the living room. Without clicking that icon on my computer, there was no way to watch it.

Blue screen when attempting to use the dedicated video card
I keep getting a blue screen when attempting to use the dedicated video card.
I managed to install the AMD driver for it but without the other components like the Catalyst Control Center as it blue screened on startup when attempting to load the Catalyst Control Center.
The OS loads fine. Any applications that don't use the dedicated video card runs fine. All other drivers install fine as well.
Applications like games and Photoshop that switch to the dedicated video card on startup automatically crashes, the OS freezes then a blue screen appears.
What could be causing the problem? This problem just recently appeared. Two weeks ago.boogs wrote:
I tried installing the drivers for my laptop from HP's support site. Still the same result.
This problem only appeared a few weeks ago. Before that, the same drivers from the HP site installed and functioned normally.
Could this be a problem with the graphics card itself?
Note sure but if we can know the system P/N others can look to see what drivers it has for the graphics to know what is there.

Installed Light Room 5.2 from Disc on my mac os x (latest, updated version)
But keep getting this "An error occurred when attempting to change modules.. OK" no other options/selection and of course if I click OK ... it crashed out ...
Can anyone help?
For such a big company .. there isn't any chat option to get to someone to talk to !!!Just because you are the only user on the computer doesn't mean you are the administrator.
Also, the fact that you are being asked to re-enter your serial number each time you start means that it is not being remembered because something is either preventing it from being written to you disk or (less likely) something is erasing it. This does suggest that you lack certain permissions to make changes to your computer. Not only to save your serial number, but to have access to the Lightroom files needed to change modules (they are just plug-ins within Lightroom).
Try creating a new user account and run Lightroom from there (making sure that it is part of the Administrator group).
To get to chat support, you have to choose the options:
