Scrolling Demon Took Over Spreadsheet & All Cells Quivered

Hello, and thanks for this service. Over the course of several days, I was plugging numbers into a series of spreadsheets, and several times my spreadsheets were quivering up and down like crazy, slightly trembling. At the same time, the scroll bar was scrolling without me taking any action. So the whole screen was moving both up and down and left to right.
This occurred several times, unpredictably, inconsistently, and when it occurred I could not get it to stop. (As a result I got my first-ever visual migraine!)
Does anyone know about this?

Jenney,
Place a copy of one of the wonky documents in your user's "Public" folder. Open the System Preferences and select the "Accounts" pane. Create a new admin user. Log out of your current user and log into the new account. Launch AppleWorks and open the document that you had set aside. If the problem recurs, then you likely have a bad AppleWorks install, but if the problem is gone, then you might just need to do some simple housecleaning in the original user account.

    Help... Have ate in living room & bedroom & I could works fine on iPhone4 as well as ipad2 wifi. I have home sharing enabled on all but when I rented a movie it was all good & charged but the download took over 24 hours & only in the bedroom.... Please help

    The remote app can either automatically find libraries available on a network (with home sharing available) or if you haven't got home sharing enabled, you can manually pair an itunes library with the remote app (using a number that is generated by the app and then typed into the itunes library).
    That is why I am so confused, as it seems to be the home sharing that is the problem!

  • When installing itunes on PC with Windows Vista, the itunes program "took over" all of my desktop icons.

    When installing itunes of my PC with Windows Vista, the itunes program "took over" all of my desktop icons.  How can I install it so it doesn't do that?  Thanks!

    You can force Vista to rebuild the desktop icons by changing your monitor's color depth momentarily. In the display properties, change to 16-bit color. Then change back to 32-bit.

  • Comcast took over my firefox browser and home page, how do I get comcast out of my firefox

    I moved to a new area and comcast installed the service here. The installation and set up of the modem asked me to install a toolbar and I opted out because I see no use in comcast services. Comcast installed some thing like malware that took over safari chrome and firefox where all of the home pages were converted to their site. Safari required being reset and chrome I removed and reinstalled. Firefox has been completely taken over, I have uninstalled it 3 times and tried safe mode and just about everything else. I spent 2 hours on the phone with comcast to no avail and my feeling on it is that firefox is the most popular browser and comcast wants part of that so they have developed their own little malware to get in on firefox. What can I do as customer or user of firefox to get rid of comcast and their browser and home page and get back to what I am comfortable with which is firefox and my npr home page.

    Sorry, if resetting your homepage in Firefox doesn't work or that change is only temporary until the next time you use your PC or restart it, you need to uninstall that Comcast Toolbar from your PC. I don't know how or where that Comcast Toolbar for Firefox is installed, so you'll need to figure that out yourself.
    The first place to look is the Windows Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs, and it is there '''Remove''' it.
    Second place is in the Firefox Add-ons Manager tab - '''{ Ctrl + Shft + A }''' - if you find it there, '''Uninstall''' it from Firefox.
    If you are able to get rid of that Comcast Toolbar and still have problems with not being able to set your choice for a homepage, let us know. There are a couple of places that may have been messed with by that application, like a user.js file or the prefs.js file.
    I'm a Comcast user, too, although I have had this cable service for over 10 years now, with the two previous owners of the franchise for this area before Comcast bought out AT&T Cable. All three companies recommended that I have their "software" installed and I refused it each time. I told them if it was "required", they could close my account, that I would go elsewhere.

    1. adding a RawText item to your page.
    2. binding a attribute of VO to the RawText. (ex: VO Name:TempVO; Attribute name:Script)
    3. writing coding in your processFormRequest
    am.invoke("showMessage");
    4. writing a method in your AM
    public void showMessage()
    Row row = getTempVO().first();
    row.setAttribute("Script", "<script>alert('test');</script>");
    }

  • When I downloaded Firefox somehow Ask took over, its not not listed in programs, How can you remove it if you can't find it?

    Ask.com took over as my browser, I don't want it, it inter fears width my email. & I got Firefox download for my browser, It makes everything slower also. I tried several different things recommended on web sights, nothing works.

    Some of these toolbars and helpers are simpler to remove than others. Often they install global software that needs to be removed from the Windows control panel, rather than just from Firefox. (Sometimes the names are not obvious).
    * see [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]
    ** the firefox reset feature mentioned in the above article may help,but it removes all your extensions, and personally I try to avoid using that.
    Once any rogue software is uninstalled the Firefox settings are likely to need sorting out. Luckily there is a restartless add-on available that is often able to handle that part of the problem.
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Post back with how you get on. Please give as much information as possible about what it is you installed, and what if anything you have found and removed.

  • Making first two digits of all cells increment one unit

    hi friends
    i am not expert in MS Excel & i need an urgent help.
    i had created a long excel sheet in Excel 2013 which i paste a part of that sheet here:
    the list is very long.
    now for some reasons, i have to edit this sheet so that in all cells, the first two digits from left increment one unit, as i have manually done that in the following figure. ( note: i don't want the color get read. i changed the color only to better view)
    the problem is that i don't do that manually because there are hundreds of cells & that takes long time.
    please introduce me all the methods which i can do that at once. (the format of all cells is text).
    really thanks in advanced

    Use this formula, starting in row 1 and copy down. Copy the result, use paste special to paste as Values over column A. Delete the formula.
    =TEXT(LEFT(A1,2)+1,"00")&MID(A1,3,99)

  • Two weeks ago, Yahoo took over my homepage when I click Safari. I can't find how to eliminate it!!

    Two weeks ago, Yahoo took over my Safari homepage.
    How do I remove Yahoo from my homepage when I click on Safari?

    I hate all things Yahoo. But regardless of what I set as my Homepage in Safari 7.0 Preferences, it eventually changes to Yahoo. And also changes default search engine to Yahoo. This has happened several times since upgrading to Mavericks.

    I recently returned from an eight day trip during which I took over 100 photos.  When I returned home yesterday, I turned on my computer and about half (randomly numbered) of my photos downloaded to Photo Stream.  I have been waiting for about 36 hours now and the rest have not downloaded.  What could be the problem?
    As additional infromation, I tried turning OFF Photo Stream on the I Cloud Control Panel and then back ON to no avail.  And all my previous pictures (taken on other trips) have downloaded completly with no problems.

    Have you checked your Photos application for Photostream? Photos are saved for 30 days in photo stream and can be moved to camera roll.
    Let me know if I can specify the search.

  • Does this happen to all cell ohones?

    I started on the East coast, flew to Dallas - my iphone reset its time to the Dallas time zone, then took another flight to Tucson, it reset automatically to that time zone. Does this happen to all cell phones? I thought I had to reset the time every trip.

    I believe if you set your phone to get the time automatically from the network, then when you change time zones the phone should change automatically. It does this based on the antenna it connects to when you use your phone in a new city (time zone).

  • Does UITableView have a callback for when it is done loading ALL cells?

    I find it very diffcult to change UIActivityIndicator on and off for data loading into a table. I set it on and then call "reload data" on my tableView and then turn it back off. I dont think that is correct, because reload data will return immediately, it doesnt block until al the data is loaded correct? So a better way it to check for a callback when all the cells are loaded?
    How are you guys doing this?

    The table isn't going to load all cells anyway.
    Say you have a 100-item table of which 6 cells are visible at a time. The table view will only use tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: to create 6 or 7 cells.
    Later on, if the user scrolls, the table view will call tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: some more, for the newly visible cells.
    If the table view held on to every cell once it had been loaded, more and more cells would gradually get allocated until all 100 cells were in existence and holding data. That would use up a lot of memory. (What if the table has 10,000 cells?)
    If the table view did the standard thing of calling \[release\] on a cell as soon as it didn't need it, memory wouldn't get used up but a lot of time would be wasted allocating and deallocating.
    So the table view has a list of "cells I have but don't really want". When they encourage you to call dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: in your tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: routine, they're effectively saying "when the table is asking you for a cell for a given table entry, ask the table if it's got any unwanted cells to give you, before you go off and allocate a new one".
    As far as your question is concerned, this means that the table never really finishes loading. It'll only load 6 or 7 cells at a time, and when the user scrolls, it'll load some more. Depending how you've written tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:, it may only ever have 6 or 7 cells in memory at a time.
    It all depends what you want. If you want your activity indicator to say "I am working on giving you a display but what you see on the screen isn't what you're ultimately going to get", then
    (1) Get each individual cell to start its filling-itself-with-visible-data process when you allocate/reuse the cell in tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:. Give the cell a unique visible appearance when you do this. When the load process is complete, get the cell to call setNeedsDisplay so that it can get repainted with the real data. The user's experience will be of a table that appears instantly, each cell with an activity indicator in it, and the activity indicators then disappear as soon as each cell finishes its work. It will look rather nice.
    Or (2) do much the same, but get each cell to increment a global "loads in process" counter when it is born/reborn, and decrement it when its data have arrived. Then use that global counter to control a single UIActivityIndicator.
    The key in both cases is for cell creation to be fast, and the actual loading of data to the cells (if it's slow) to be done separately.
