Small but very annoying problem

I am running with a GF4 ti 4600 128mb and Windows xp home edition.
My problem is that after I go to color correction and change the contrast/gamma/brightness and click "apply" then activate a game any game the properties go back to the original settings I had before. Which is the hardware default btw.
So how can I keep the brightness up? It's really annoying when you try to play a game and everything is very dark.
My monitor is also up to its full contrast also.

If nothing else works, try changing the refresh rate of your monitor; usually lower refresh rates have a brighter image.
BTW have you tryed to use the on-screen controls of the monitor?
Greetings

Very strange but very annoying problem?

Hey everyone, quick question about something that while not a big deal is very annoying. For some reason even though im the only person who uses this laptop its my brother that os x seems to think is the owner. In other words any scenario where os x has an auto fill or something it always puts my brothers name or email in. Incredibly irritating and ive no idea how to fix it.
There are no other accounts besides my own and ive created a card in the address book for myself and set it as "My Card", that is all i can think to do.
Any help appreciated.

Actually in Safari its fine, its more programs that are the problem. Say iMovie for example it will fill the wrong details automatically into the template because somewhere on this thing it has my brother as the primary user/owner.

A small but very irritating bug in Mail: after pressing the spacebar after typing an apostrophe in a word such as "we're", the cursor moves to the left i.e. backwards, and not to the right, effectively deleting a space and not creating one.

When composing an email in Mac Mail I've noticed a small but very irritating bug: pressing the spacebar after typing an apostrophe in a word, e.g. "we're", the cursor moves to the left i.e. backwards, and not to the right, effectively deleting a space and not creating one.
Any ideas?

I just recreated this problem on my iMac (wired KB, no wireless KB) by changing Mail > Preferences > Composing > Spellcheck from "as I type" to "never". Then type a contraction ending in 're and the space bar causes the cursor to jump back as others have stated, to the spot 'r|e
Next, I went into System Preferences > Keyboard > Text, and turned off "use smart quotes" and the problem went away again.
From this point (smart quotes off, spell checking never), if I turn Smart Quotes ON, the problem returns.
The problem is dependent on the state of both settings.
The spacebar in Mail "works" if I have either of the following setting combinations:
Keyboard: smart quotes OFF, Mail: check spelling ANY SETTING
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: check spelling AS I TYPE
Other combinations FAIL
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: Check spelling NEVER
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: Check Spelling WHEN I CLICK SEND
Looks to me like there's a bug in Mail > Preferences > Check spelling > NEVER and WHEN I CLICK SEND that interacts badly with Keyboard > Smart quotes ON.
Thanks.

Very annoying problem since 1-2 years with "AllSport GPS" app and e-mail "terror" - please help!

Hi there,
I have a very annoying problem that occurs since 1-2 years. Now I want to get finally rid of this.
I bought the app "AllSport GPS" via BlackBerry App World in 2010. After the uninstallation of this app due to new devices one or two years ago I have the following problem:
On each (!) update of my list in the BlackBerry World app or after the reset and reload of the content of installed app I receive 1-5 (different amount) of mails with the following content:
AllSport GPS license key for your BlackBerry
Thank you for purchasing AllSport GPS from BlackBerry App World. The license key for your device is:
XXXXXXXXXX
This is VERY annoying! I also informed the publisher of the app (Trimble Outdoors) but they told me to contact BlackBerry. During the last 1-2 years - because I often refresh and look after new updates for my apps (I have many installed on my device) - I received, no fake, hundreds (!) of this annoying mails!
I bought the app with my older 9700 or 9790. In the meantime, on my Bold 9790, the app is not available any longer for this, so it is not shown in my BlackBerry World environment. In this case I could make a new clear installation and deletion of the app. But this is not possible.
It would be great if anybody of BlackBerry is reading this and could reset or delete the resending of this mail.
Are there other other thay also have this problem? Any suggestions?
Greetings from Germany
Daniel

Actually, this is a user-to-user forum. There are some BlackBerry employees who read these posts, but in most case you are only talking to other BlackBerry users.
So to solve your question, you will need somebody from BlackBerry, as most other users will not really be able to solve the problem. If you contacted BlackBerry Support, I guess the best thing is to wait for their answer. You can try tweeting to @BlackBerryHelp, in some cases they can reply to you faster. Or you can have their attention much faster.
I find it weird myself that you haven't contacted them before, as you say the problem is since a couple of years now.
I am afraid that you will not receive a lot more information on this forum (as this is a rather specific problem in my opinion). Except maybe if one of the BlackBerry employees on this forum notices this post.
I hope your problem is solved soon!
A like is always appreciated,
but a nomination for BB Elite even more :-)

Small issue but very annoying....

When using the dashbaord to access the calculator in Snow Leopard it would overlay it over the project i was working on. In Lion when accessing the calculator it takes me to a new screen. This is very annoying as i like to see what im working on while using the calculator at the same time. Now i have to swtich back and forth between screens. I know in the grand scheme of things this is a small problem but its very annoying. Is there a way i can make the calcualtor work as it did in Snow Leopard?

Small but interesting networking problem

Hi all,
This is a small, but quite interesting networking problem, I'd like to get solved.
The network situation is as follows:
- A Netgear Router with WLAN
- A Powerbook G4 with Tiger and both Ethernet and AP connection
- A Powerbook Pismo with MacOS 9.01. and a wireless Ethernet Bridge
- A IMac with Panther and AP connection
- A PowerMac 4400/200 with MacOS 8.6 and Ethernet connection
All Macs are able to access Internet via DSL.
The PBs and the IMac can access each other's HDs omnidirectional.
And here's the problem:
The 4400 can access the G4-HD, but the G4 can't access the 4400.
By the way, the 4400 is simply used to adress a printer, but doesn't work as print server by today's meaning. I just transfer files and get it printed from the 4400.
(Yes, I could buy a cheap printer for each of the other Macs or even a network printer, but don't want to do so because of my very low printing volume
IMO, my small problem is related to MacOS 8.6, but I've no idea how to deal with.
So, this is a real nice Mac nut for the wise guys
Thanks,
Sven

RE: Which Mac can be a File Server under what circumstances:
To make way for the upcoming Intel Macs, AppleTalk and TCP/IP drivers for 10.4 were modified.
File Sharing via AppleTalk:
7.5.3 through 10.3 can share their files via AppleTalk.
10.4 cannot share its files via AppleTalk, and cannot mount drives from Macs that only want to share via AppleTalk. (AppleTalk printing in 10.4 is still supported.)
File Sharing via TCP/IP:
OS 9 and later can share its files via TCP/IP.
7.5.3 and later can mount other Mac's files on its desktop via TCP/IP if you use the "Server IP Address" button in the AppleShare Chooser Extension.
There is a third-party solution for 7.5.3 through 8.6, but it is not free.
http://www.opendoor.com/shareway/
Executive Summary:
The scenario that always works is to start from the older, pre-9 Mac, and mount the 10.4 Mac's shared drives or shared folder on the older Mac by using the "Server IP Address" button in the Chooser.
The relevant (but very dense) article is this one:
301183- Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: "Connection failed" error when connecting to an AFP server
The 10.4.9 problem was an error introduced in the 10.4.9 update. I do not believe Apple intended it to stop working with that update.

I have Lion and iCloud. There are two very annoying problems. mFirst, in the middle of writing or research the window gets yanked to the right. Sometimes it can be retrieved and sometimes it can't. sec on, in the course of research on Safari, or work

I have recently upgraded to Lion and iCloud. There are two very annoying quirks that i don't know how to fix:
1-When working with word, documents or emails in the middle of a sequence the picture or window suddenly is yanked off the screen to the right. More often than not it can't be retrieved. This happens often
2-In the same mode as in #1 above the print size will suddenly increase maybe by a factor of 3x or 4x. it happens spontaneously.
3-There are many other problems with the upgrade:
-With sequence emails the secondary emails are not printed. When one tries to open those emails it often fails.
-The new address book format is crap. it is very difficult to go from single listings to group listings and back.
It's obviousto me the Apple software designers are not users.
So how can i fix #1 & 2 above.

Microsoft Word? What version and service pack?
Microsoft Office 2011 SP2 includes Word version 14.2.2. Some Office 2011 updates addressed problems with Lion.

Very annoying problem....

im having a very annoying issue with iTunes....
with almost evrery song in my library i try to play i get this message....
"The song "[whatever]" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
then i need to go find the song and all that mess.... not fun. what can i do to fix this? all the songs in my library are stored elsewhere on my computer, so why arent they playing?

Then your iTunes library file has most likely gotten damaged.

Very small portion of touch screen not working, but very annoying!

Whenever I go to use the letter Q or the number 1 while text messaging, that portion of the screen does not work.
However, when I brought up the calculator to test the screen out in all areas (as mentioned in the troubleshooting guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1827), all of the numbers work just fine.
Has anyone had this happen before? If so, did a restore correct it? I've done everything but a restore. So before I go to that extreme I wanted to see if anyone else has endured the same problem and had it corrected. I know my iPhone 3GS is still under warranty, so I'm sure I can get it fixed at an apple store as a last resort.
I've never dropped the phone or had it come into contact with water or anything like that. I keep it secure in a case at all times and it's free of any scratches.

Why do people even do this dance? You have a warranty, get the phone fixed.
I have to agree with Marc. No one here can "tell" you how to fix this problem as it certainly has to be a hardware issue. I have a similar spot on my IP (the #9 when I'm playing Sodoku). I have to tap it a couple of times to get "9" to take. I suspect I may have pressed that screen area a little too hard once, but I can live with it.
IF I were doing a lot of email, I would probably go see the Genius Man, but for now I'm OK with it.

Very Annoying Problem Installing i-Tunes Ver 8.02

This rambles... But bear with me...
So I moved from London to some small village in the middle of nowhere. I had broadband before moving and when I got here I found that I COULD NOT GET IT HERE ONLY DIAL-UP. Now I know that some of you are rolling your eyes and coming up with quick fixes to my problem but when I stopped using i-tunes I had version 6 on my PC which has worked fine till now. I received a shiny new touch for Xmas from my son and so I downloaded i-tunes 8 as per the literature and needs of the machine (yes it took 6 hours). Now the problem I have is that when I try to install it, it keeps starting the install then going through the motions before telling me twenty seconds later that its installed version 8.02.
The cunning thing now is that it hasn't so what is going on.....?
I've tried all the tools within Windows and that hasn't worked. I've also tried uninstalling Quicktime and i-Tunes ver 6 but all that has left me with is no i-Tunes.
I've tried some of the kind suggestions already posted to other forums in the vain hope it will work but nothing..... PLEASE HELP

hi Steve!
there is no error message, it installs succesfully then i try to run it and after i double click, nothing happens at all!
okay, so it's
b not
crashing.
we'd better check the usual suspect in these cases first. Are you running Norton Internet Security 2005? if so, see:
b noir, "itunes wont open" #6, 02:11pm Oct 3, 2005 CDT
if those techniques aren't applicable to your situation, or if you run into troubles with them, post back to tell us what other security packages you're running or what problems you encountered trying to use the techniques.

A very annoying problem.

For some strange reason, on my home screen/display just below where it says "Blackberry", it normaly just say's 02.
Since yesterday it still say's 02 but now has UK local area codes after it. i.e 01752, 01579, 01822 etc etc. Any ideas you good Blackberry folk.

Ok, to stop the mad rush to help I have found the solution myself.
For some reason in options/advanced/cell broadcast, cell broadcast was enabled for some reason!! Anyway - I turned it off and this most strange,well, more annoying really, problem dissapeared.

A small but very usefull help needed!

Hello,
I am not sure if i have posted this toppic in the correct forum but i want to write a small javascript command.
I have an application in which i have to always press some and then enter so that it can refresh. Can anyone show me or write a small command to help me out?
It would be very usefull.
Thank you in advance!

This is not the correct forum for your question. You should direct it to a development forum.

Two small but very important enhancements

In my prior posts I mentioned two very easy but important enhancemens. I did
not see them implemented in 2.2.4 or 2.2.5 so I would like to reemphasize my
points
1. When printing failed object in exception (or any other place where you
print OID) please print OID instance class otherwise people would get just
pk field value(s) and it is impossible to say which object actually failed.
We had it in production and could not figure out which class it was -
frustrating
2. There are cases when referential integrity can not be enforced (mylti
database models, view based tables etc) under this conditions it is possible
to get dangling references which are resolved by Kodo to null. In avarage
application if a required field suddenly gets resolved to null we get
NullPointerException. It would not be good idea to guard against nulls
because the field is required and can be null only due to data problems
(usually created by external database access). To aid debugging please log
those cases (when reference column has value but it does not point to any
valid record). It would be great if you could supply "from instance" (class
and OID), to instance (class and OID) and error message ofcourse

Very annoying problem with parametric EQ

I'm having a problem in AA3 with the parametric EQ that is present on every track strip. I opened up a session to work on, and one of my drum tracks has an EQ curve set. When I try to alter the curve, it pops back into its previous position as soon as I hit play. It won't let me change it for some reason. I've had this happen a number of times with different songs now, and its extremely frustrating. Anyone else have this happen?

No, but you have to bear in mind that any change you make to the EQ has to be written to the automation system in order remain changed. If you put the track automation into write mode, and change any EQ settings at all, the changes all replay perfectly here. So I'd suggest having a look at the track's automation settings initially to resolve your problem.

Very annoying problem reparing permissions on 10.5.2

I recently installed the 10.5.2 update and it has been a disaster. After the installation, my cpu would not start up and hung on a dark blue screen.
I booted from the leopard dvd, ran disk first aid and it showed a handful of problems with the disk permissions (it did not show any other problems.) Disk first aid said it repaired the problems, but it still would not boot. I ran disk first aid again and, again, the same problems were listed.
I tried booting in single-user mode and ran a bunch of the command line things from one of the apple docs. When I tried to reboot, I was finally able to log in as System Administrator, but still could not log in under my normal user name. Every time I try to log in on my normal account, it still goes back to the blue screen (though then goes back to the log in screen.) Using the system administrator account allows me to access all my files but, of course, none of my preferences are set properly, none of my bookmarks, my itunes library, etc., etc.
This seems like something I should be able to fix without having to take the time to restore from my TM back up (plus, not all of my drive is backed up as I have it set not to back up some of my larger media files.)
Any thoughts on what is wrong and how I can fix this? Also, if I do restore using TM, should I avoid the 10.5.2 update afterwards?

Have tried booting in Safe Mode? Hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime, and see if you can then log in to your regular account. If so, there may be some third-party something you have set in your regular account that is not compatible with 10.5.2.
