Screen permanently zoomed in- Magic Prefs??? After configuring "two finger zoom in" in Magic Prefs, screen is permanent;y zoomed in how do I overide Magic Prefs and switch off zoom?
Hi. I went into Magic Preferences to configure a "2 finger pinch out" as zoom in and a "2 finger pinch in" as zoom out of screen. In short, the zoom in worked and the zoom out didn't. Now my IMac screen is permanently zoomed in and I cant tell where abouts I am on the screen to switch off or overide the stupid magic prefs of my magic mouse. I have tried holding CONTROL, scroll down arrow but didn't work.
Thanks in advance. Dennis
Try holding down Control while using the single-finger scroll gesture on the Magic Mouse. In Snow Leopard you would use the scroll-down gesture (drag finger toward you), but if you are use Lion the gesture may be reversed.
Another possibility - go to System Preferences > Universal Access, click the Seeing choice. See if Zoom got activated accidentally. If it is "on", change it to '"off".
Note that there is a keyboard command (shortcut) available to toggle that Zoom: Command-Option-8
You can disable that shortcut in System Preferences > Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts section - click the Universal Access item in the left-hand pane, then uncheck the "turn zoom on or off" item in the right-hand pane.
Note - the descriptions I gave for what is where applies to Snow Leopard. If you are using Lion, there should be simialr settings although their specific locations may be slightly different.

How do I get my pics and vids when my screen is busted and my phone is password protected?
It's a good thing you have your Camera Roll backed up from the last sync you did with either iTunes or iCloud!
Your Camera Roll photos can be retrieved from the last sync once you get your replacement iPhone. The rest of your photos are backed up elsewhere on your computer from your last sync. -
iTunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday. In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync to the other devices but now there is a listing a movies with no cover photos and in fact if I try to view the movie on the MacBook Pro it cannot be found unless I download it.
All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

IMac turning on and switching off during start-up after partitioning
Hi,
I tried installing Windows XP using Boot Camp on my iMac. During the partitioning process I got the spinning beach ball and the computer switched off.
After which, I tried powering on the iMac again and the apple logo is displayed for about half a minute and then the computer restarts. This is happening constantly!! I have tried resetting the SMC by unplugging the mains and the keyboard and mouse, but the same thing keeps happening.
What can be the problem?
AdityaReinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I can't relax and listen to music as my nano will go to sleep after just one minute of not touching it. This is really irritating and needs to get fixed. Can anyone help? I've read the manual and it doesn't say anything about my problem.
Your nano is pausing playback when the screen goes dark. The reason for this is that it is not detecting your headset. You may be able to hear music, but the headset jack is not inserted enough for the nano to detect that it is there (or something is blocking the connection). Here are your three options:
Insert the headset jack harder. Most folks find that this solves their problem. If you can see ANY of the silver of the plug when it is inserted, it is NOT fully inserted. You should feel and hear a click" when it is fully inserted.
Clean out the crud in the headset port. If you have tried #1 and it just won't insert all the way, it is likely that you have crud in your headset jack. Shine a light in there. The entire inside of the jack is white, so if it looks dark down at the bottom, there is probably crud down there. You can try blowing it out or using canned air. Just understand that shoving anything else in there to clean it out will be taking your warranty into your own hands! However, I have cleaned mine out using whatever was handy and small enough to fit in there and so far so good. Your results may vary!
Take it to the Apple store. If you have really tried with 1 and 2 and it is still happening, then there might just be something up with your headset port or your headset jack. If it is the headset jack, you can look closely at that and be pretty sure if that is the problem. Try another headset to make sure. If you have worked all the way through to this point and it is still happening, it is time to take it to the Apple store.

Photosmart B110a & Mavericks - won't print after about two minutes...
Evening - I've been using the Photosmart B110a for a few years no problems at all with Windows XP, Windows 7 and more recently Windows 8 - I've recently bought an iMac that is running Mavericks, and it's not right.
It took me a while to install it, but eventually got that sorted but now it simply hangs when I try to print to it. Now, and here's the thing, if i reboot the printer, or reboot my router (TalkTalk DSL-3780) the printer comes on line, the jobs in the queue print, I can get to the webpage for the printer and all seems ok.
But after about two minutes it "hangs" - for want of a better phrase. The print jobs queue up, the webpage hangs, and nothing happens until I reboot it.
Now whiles it's hanging, I can still ping the router from the terminal, but no response from any of the software - unti I reboot, and then only for a few minutes, and on the cycle goes.
It's still fine from the Windows machines not incidentally, it only seems to be doing this from the iMac.
The reboot fix is a solution of sorts, but it's obviously not ideal.
Reading the forums there have been lots of posts about scanning issues with Mavericks, but I've not got that far yet.
Could you advise one way or the other?
Many thanks, Gary.Hey @Wickers , I am really sorry i misunderstood the OS you are running.
We have exahusted all the troubleshooting steps HP has provided for this issue. The only driver available is for 10.8 and lower. Unfortunately this printer is not fully compatible with the new operating systems of Mac. The only driver available is the apple update thats you you have already done, because HP doesnt have a driver, we are very limitted in what we can do for this issue.
I suggest maybe trying a different printer driver such as HP Photosmart 5510d e-All-in-One Printer B111h/B111j Full Feature Software and Drivers.
For any further support at this point I would recommend calling the HP tech support via phone.

During call switch off display to black screen
During call suddenly switch off display to black screen. Calling continues normaly , but is not possible finish this , I must switch off and on full iPhone...... And once one problem - I was think, so this is problem cohere with " Show My caller ID " in setting and now I see, so this function is OFF and is not possible switch ON..... Can you help me any ?
When you make a call or get a call, the screen is supposed to turn off when you bring it to your ear (it has proximity sensors that activate when on a call). It does this so your face doesn't touch the screen while active and push a button.
When you pull it away it is supposed to turn back on.
If it doesn't turn back on there are two possible causes. First case is those that buy and use a case for the phone. If you have a case, there is a good chance you are either using an older case (made for first gen iPhone) on a newer iPhone 3G or your case is just poorly designed. Either way, some cases have a habit of covering the sensor thus it cannot tell when you put the phone to your face or pull away.
If you have a cases (especially if an older case on a new iPhone 3G) remove it and see if the problem continues.
The other possible problem is just a bad sensor. So if you are not using a case and having this problem, take unit to an Apple Store for replacement.
My guess is that you are using a case that was made for the 1st Generation iPhone and not the new iPhone 3G (there is a difference...you cannot use an older case on the newer phones).

How to re-enable Beats speakers and sub woofer after configured Windows 8/Ubuntu dual boot?
HP ENvy DV7-7240us
Windows 8 / Linux Ubuntu Dual Boot
No Sound through two front Beats speakers or sub woofer both operating systems after installed Ubuntu 12.10 as dual boot.
Is there a way to at least re-enable the Beats speakers and sub woofer in Windows 8 when I boot on that OS? I am using the UEFI as the boot manager by hitting ESC / F9, and not GRUB2 (Linux).
I did update to "BIOS" (UEFI) F.22 concurrently with the dual boot...possibly this has something to do with it?
I would like to keep the dual boot, but the loss of the Beats speakers is kind of a deal breaker, and virtualization of Linux seems to be buggy in its own right.
I tried re-enabling the sound through right clicking on the speaker icon in the tray, and configuring Playback devices. The only option available is IDT High Definition Audio Codec. Is there another device listing for the Beats speakers that I am missing?
Only other minor issue with the hardware I am aware of is only on the Linux side, that being no pinch to zoom on track pad, which I try not to use anyway.
Thank you.Have you tried resetting BIOS settings to default? Enter BIOS by tapping/holding F10 key immediately after powering on.Reset to Default settings, usually tap F9,check bottom of screen for correct key.Save & Exit.

Macbook Pro loses Airport Extreme after the Screen switches off.
I am experiencing problems where my MBP is losing the network connection with my Airport Extreme after the screen switches off (the MBP is not does not sleep).
I could be watching a video streaming from my MBP to my ATV, and all of a sudden it stops, and the ATV loses its connection with my MBP. On looking at the MBP it is still connected to the internet, but it can't physically see my Airport Extreme. I've opened the Airport Utilities program and it cannot find the Airport Extreme, even though I am still connected to it.
The only way I can fix it is to turn off the Airport on my MBP and then turn it back on and everything comes right.
This has only just started happening in the last week or so, and I have never had a problem before.
I've had a look through the forums, and on Google, but others seem to be losing their internet, etc. I am still able to access the internet, just not anything connected the Airport Extreme (e.g. USB harddrive).What are you doing to change it to a static channel? I've been having this same problem and have tried going to Network Settings>>Advanced>>TCP/IP>>Configure IPv4, changed setting to "Using DCHP with manual address", and changed the IP address to an available ip. I've done this a lot of times before I had the monitor problem to solve the IP conflict problems I get sometimes on my network, but this didn't fix the external monitor issue. Is there something else I should be doing? Thanks
