Screen orientation lock

I have not screen orientation lock but in this place I'v a volume mute. Whats going on?

I post this quite often for users that lose system sounds but it relates to the screen lock as well. Read this and the link I post at the end.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

My wifi will not turn on. The button is settings seems to be locked. I tried turning it on from the control panel, and also with Siri, but it still does not turn on in settings, so i cannot access wifi. Please help ASAP

Wifi will not work. The button in settings seems to be locked. Tried control panel and siri to turn it on, doesnt work because the settings wont turn it on. Need help ASAP cause my data limit is approaching.

If the battery was completely drained the iPad will not respond for some time after connecting it to the charger. Connect the iPad to the charger that came with it and plug that into a good wall outlet. Wait 30 minutes. Then reset the iPad.Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until it's battery shows fully charged. If the iPad still does not start Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. Be sure to back up your device before taking or sending it to Apple.

New place for screen orientation lock

Apple has changed the screen orientation lock button to a mute button. To lock your screen orientation just double click so your in the multitasking menu slide left and on the far left is the screen orientation lock. If you ask me it is kind of a stupid place and I hop apple switches it back.

Please help@

Windows will scale applications display or windows will not scale application display depending on how the application is coded. Photoshop is coded in a way that its display is not scaled by windows. Photoshop knows about your displays high pixel count not its resolution so it uses its pixels however it does not scale its UI to make it usable on your display. Other application let Windows scale their display output.   For example Microsoft default for is Surface Pro 3, 216 ppi display is to scale applications display up 150% so the surface pro 3 display which has 2160x1440 pixels a 216 ppi resolution look like at display with the user is using with 1440x960 pixels. The Application works like the display is 1440x960 and Windows scale those pixels to the displays using the displays 2160x1440 pixels the effectively changing it resolution to 144ppi rather than the actual 216ppi.
The reg update and external manifest file effectively tells photoshop its working on such a size display display some number of pixel wide and some number photoshop uses that as the display size in turn Windows scale those pixels to use the displays 2160x1440 pixels efector lowing its 216ppi resolution. Photoshop CC 2014 2X UI would be like using windows 200% option applications would be shown the are working on a display 1080x720 instead of the Surface Pro 3 2160x1440. Note that 1080x720 does not meet PS requirement of 1024x768. Photoshop UI would not fit on the Surface Pro 3 display..
Since you have a 4k display if you have CC 2014 you can use its 2x UI effectively Photoshop will be running on a 1920x1080 display and have half the resolution of you 4K display 3840x2160 pixels four native pixels are use as a single pixel.   1920x1080 pixels exceed PS requirement.

I found a solution!! so go into your settings - where it says "use side switch to:" click mute instead of lock rotation. Seems that somehow it was locked on mute (eventhough my buttons were showing me turning volume up and down) now its all working perfec

I cannot get any sound from my ipad. I tried youtube, pandora and. Iseos and none have any sound. I have checked the control panel and the sound is "on". Any suggestions?

I Am not getting any sound at all from my ipad. I have checked the control panel and it says the sound is "on". Any other suggestions? It has worked just fine in the past.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings
What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

I have a pc running windows 7. I got an Airport Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi and the printer is now plugged into the Airport. The wireless router works fine but the printer shows as offline in control panel and in word. The printer is a HP LaserJet CP1525nw.

+For now I have it set to Share Public IP address - Is this correct for my Network Setup with The Airport Extreme being the only router being used ?+
This would be the correct setting if the AirPort Extreme is connected to a simple modem (one ethernet port).

Control panel and Console not working

Hi,
I have installed various Java Runtime Environments, all of which run applets flawlessly. There is one problem though, I need to enter an application that needs a certificate for security, and the dialog opens as a blank screen. I'm not positive, but it is similar to when I open the control panel and the console; a blank screen. Is there a way to fix the control panel and console so it doesn't show up as a blank screen, short of reinstalling the OS? I am thinking if I fix the control panel, it might fix the security dialog.
System: XP SP1

I have noticed that when i maximize a window that is blank ( i.e. the console or java web start) the screen refreshes and the window is displayed.

Windows server 2008 can't access control panel and can't choose "properties" under "my computer"

Hello everyone!
Today after a schedule restart on the night I thought everything was normal with my server. But When i go to "start -> control panel" it show me "empty". And if I try to lunch "change/remove software" via search window in
"start" then nothing happen.
I know also that I can't right click on "computer" and choose "properties" in the start-menu.
Also another problem. I did install Fbackup to make schedule file backups on the night. The software worked well to launch when I had installed it, but after the night, this morning it just crash on launch.
I can also tell that I did add from 4 CPU core to 6 CPU cores.

Hi,
Have you tried to see if the issue persists when you boot into Safe Mode? Since you it shows blank when accessing Control Panel, please check if the policy setting below has been
configured.
Please choose Start – Run - type (gpedit.msc) - click on (Administrative Templates) - (control Panel) -
Prohibit access to Control Panel and Show only specified Control Panel applets. If they were configured, please disable them to see if it could resolve the issue.
In addition, the issue may also be caused by the virus, please run a system scan to see if there is any virus. At this time, you can also launch Control Panel apps from the command
line, and here's a list of .cpl files for your reference that you can print out:

Control Panel and Sherlock in Panther

Can someone please tell me how to find Sherlock and the Control Panel in Panther? Since I switched over from Classic 9. etc I can't find my way around as easily and have been informed about the Control Panel and Sherlock which I loved and used a lot on the Mac 9. etce but can't locate them on Panther. Do they exist there or not???? Please help. Thanks in advance.
iMAc Special Edition Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi Julie. The first thing you'd better remind yourself of, every time you sit down at your 'puter, is that Panther's a whole new breed of cat. You just can't assume any of the OS 9 things are the same—even if they look the same; aliases being an example—no matter how much you (and I) might want them to be. David Pogue's Missing Manual for OPanther was a h u g e help to my adjustment.
One of the good things in Panther is that fat, bloated Sherlock2 was stripped of its Find… function. Command-F brings up an efficient System7-8.6 style dialogue, although it does have quirks: for one, it doesn't search the "System" folder unless specifically told to; "Search everywher" isn't enough. The internet part of Sherlock still shows up in my "Applications" folder. As X is more candid than OS9 about classifying things near and dear to Apple as apps like any other, you may find a few other faves there or in Utilities. In case the thought occurs to you, do NOT move them elsewhere, or establish subfolders in Applications to sort them—work w/ aliases—as X counts on finding such stuff where it expects, in a simple alpha list.
Control Panels—which used to proliferate like mad, due to 3d party items—are now Panes (and Panes within Panes) within System Preferences. Most often 3d parties' add-ons are written as Applications or Utilities, though there are some written as Panes. It's actually quite efficient, though annoyingly harder to get to than the old cascading menus under the Apple.
As you might expect, there are 3d party products that 'restore' old-world faves like the Apple menu and disable the sheet-spitter, but that's stretching this topic.
Best wishes for your Panthering; I'm sure you'll find some stuff you come to love, along with thing you'll miss, but isn't that life in a nutshell?

Control panel and Function panel are empty

The Control Panel and Functions Palettes are both blank. How do I repropagate the panels with all related icons? LabVIEW repair does not repropagate panels. Thank You!

Did the palettes ever have something in them, or is this a new install.
First try just selecting a different menu setup. This should tell us if it's a bad menu file or all the vi.lib files have disappeared.
If that doesn't do it, open your file browser and navigate to "...National Instrument/LabVIEW X.X/vi.lib" and look in the sub directories and see if there are any files. Most of what's in the palettes comes from the vi.lib directory. If there's nothing in there, I'd do a complete uninstall, then reinstall and see of that takes care of it.

Problem
Often runtime, the control panel and context menus are disabled (e.g.: trasformation Values, rotation, shear angle, character and paragraph formattingt control (track, kern), fx, colors.
All documents are created in CS6 or converted from CS5 templates (After the opening in CS6 files are exported IDML file exported).
What we have done to try and fix the problem:
Reinstal InDesign - No effect
Cleared the preferences (shift + ctrl + alt + apples key on InDesign startup) - Works but is not conclusive.
Helps?
Thanks

HT4759 I am trying to set up icloud on my pc. I open the control panel and it keeps asking me to sign in and doesn't give me any other options but that.

I am trying to set up icloud on my pc. I open up the control panel and it keeps asking me to sign in and doesn't give me any options but that. What could be the issue?

To use iCloud, you must first set it up on an iOS device or a Mac.
Creating an iCloud account FAQ:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436

Fel: 0x8004010F: ZebraMapiCopySession::CreateMobileMeMessageStore: CreateMessageService failed This is what i get when i try to activate contacts in the icloud control panel and no contacs are syncronised..... iPhone 3GS, Windows 7

Fel: 0x8004010F: ZebraMapiCopySession::CreateMobileMeMessageStore: CreateMessageService failed
This is what i get when i try to activate contacts in the icloud control panel and no contacs are syncronised.....
iPhone 3GS, Windows 7

After much some reasearch I fixed this problem for my problem computer. I have two computers running Windows 7 64-bit, one working with iCloud contact/calendar sync and the other getting this "0x8004010F: ZebraMapiCopySession::CreateMobileMeMessageStore: CreateMessageService failed" error (when you look at the report data to Apple).
So when I compared my system to a working system, I found that there was a difference in the bit-named DLL used by iCloud.
Go to Outlook, File, Options, Add-Ins and in the Active Application Add-ins section highlight "iCloud Outlook Addin". You'll find the DLL name there.
On my working computer, it was APLZOD6432.DLL, while on my problem computer it was APLZOD32.DLL. Ah ha! Its trying to setup Outlook 64 with a 32-bit iCloud DLL. Or so I thought.
I looked for a 64-bit specific install for iCloud. Nope, iCloud 1.1 is for both. Hmmm...
I thought I had installed Office 2010 64-bit on my problem computer, but apparently I installed 32-bit. I was able to confirm this by going into Outook, File and Help. Under "About Microsoft Outlook" it said 32-bit. Checking the working computer, it was showing 64-bit Outlook.
So this also brought another thought to my mind. Maybe the problem is because I installed the iCloud control panel before I installed Office 2010. That said, I uninstalled iCloud Control Panel (Add/Remove Programs), and re-installed it from the manual download page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455 and tried contact syncing again. It worked!
Then I went to check the DLL in use. It was APLZOD32.DLL. So perhaps iCloud sets up for 64-bit Office when no office is installed on Windows 7 64-bit and breaks when you install 32-bit. Or there is a part of iCloud install that needs to be done with Office installed. Either way, I'm happy to have the issue fixed. Leaving the 32-bit Office there for now.
