Tap function doesn't work, recovered files in bin etc

Hi
I'm using Mac Book Pro 13' - Mac OS 10.6.8
1) Every time, I switched on my laptop, the one finger (tap to click) function doesn't work (although I have set it up).
I have to go to 'systems preferences' to set it up again.
2) Why is there 'Recovered files' in the trash bin each I switched on my laptop? How to get rid of it?
3) Sometimes when I work using Word 2011, it takes a long time to save (the little icon will be swirling and swirling) and then I had to force quit and lose unsaved info. Why does this happen and how to avoid it from happening?
Pls help me. I'm in the middle of my thesis submission and urgently need solutions to my Mac problems. Thanks!

Reinstall Photoshop. That often fixes the issue.

The to_date function doesn't work ?

Hello
I don't know why my to_date function doesn't work on my pc.
my statement is pretty complex so i just tried simple one
select to_date('10-Jan-2006','dd-mon-yyyy') from dual;
but even this one doesn't work it says it is invalid month
howcome?
is it because my Windows XP (not english version) doesn't recognise month Jan?
i tried it another place it worked
so is there any language pack / patch i need to install? ?
so does OS matters?
or how to fix this..please help me

By default SQL Developer picks up it's language settings up from (on Windows) the Regional and Language Options. You can see what it has set by querying the NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS view.
Assuming you don't want to change to using DD-MM-YYYY formats for your months or change your regional settings on your PC, you need to tell SQL Developer which language you want, which you can do by adding the following lines to the file sqldeveloper\jdev\bin\sqldeveloper.conf:
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
AddVMOption -Duser.country=US

Lightroom 5.7.1, Yosemite OS X - Synchronise Folder function doesn't work in Lr.
Is there a compatibility issue? I can see the folders/images in Finder but when trying to synchronise folders in Lr it does not recognise that there are any images and therefore unable to import to catalogue. Anyone has any idea how to make it work. Thanks a lot.

Hi Elba,
Thank you very much for your reply. Not sure, however, that we are talking about the same problem.
I am trying to perform the same function in Lr that I have been doing for many years in the past and has only been a problem in the last few days (possibly coinciding with upgrading to Yosemite, trying to find out whether that is the problem)
I am not intending to sync any files with Creative Cloud but only trying to use 'Synchronize Folder' function in Lr. Normally, I would right click on a particular folder in Lr catalogue and click on that function to check that the Lr Catalogue is perfectly matching my drives where the original photos are actually stored.
The problem that I only started to encounter is that I can see the files on the actual drives but they do not appear in my Lr Catalogue and they are completely invisible to Lr. I simply can not get Lr to recognise them and then import them to catalogue.
If for example, I export images to Ps and then save and close them, they do appear on my drive but are invisible to Lr and I can't get them imported into the catalogue. Import to folder also not producing any results as they are still invisible to Lr.
Completely baffled by it. Any idea what could be the reason?
Kind regards,
Nik

Preview function doesn't work in Cap2

I just installed Captivate2. In the project I'm working on,
the Preview function doesn't work. Or rather, it works
sporadically... sometimes it does, and --- much more often -- it
does not. What happens instead is, the "generating slides" message
appears, and the progress-bar begins, but then suddenly the
message/progress window disappears, WITHOUT generating the swf file
and without doing any kind of preview. It happens on all the
various options of the Preview function.
It does work about one time in every ten attempts.
This surely isn't acceptable... Anyone else encountering
this???

Hi UncleErnie
By chance have you fiddled with the slide properties of any
of the slides? One of the new options available in version 2 is to
apply navigation options that cause slides to behave certain ways.
So it stands to reason that if a slide was configured to jump to
the end of the movie and the end of the movie option was to close
the movie... Well, hopefully you see what I mean.
Another question I would have is where are you editing your
project? Are you possibly saving it to the company LAN and editing
it using Captivate to make edits while in that location? If so,
this is normally bad practice. Try moving the project locally and
see if the issue resolves.
Cheers... Rick

Scroll up function doesn't work at all.

My Blackberry Bold9930 is having some issues and it is my second one this one is about two months old. First of all it has a dead pixel and I know you can not do anything about that. The other issue is with the track pad in some windows scroll up/down function doesn't work at all but left to right works. In some windows the scroll up/down function it will but others will not WHY? Windows that the function will not work that I know of are any pop up winds and the tap page in the browser some options pages etc. Why is this? Yes I have done restarts latest software I have done everything.

Can you scroll using the touchscreen?
Whenever my trackpad scroll "sticks" or seems to not work, it's because I have too many browser windows open, or too many apps open. Which browser are you using?
Try closing apps, closing windows, and leaving open only those you are actually using at the time. A battery pull (quick pull in my case) usually cures a sluggish phone every time for me.

Cannot print with a Samsung ML2160 printer (mono laser) and Pages. Print function doesn't work, only drag and drop in printer's queue

Hello,
I just purchased a Samsung ML2160 printer and it doesn't work with nor my Pages program, nor the Preview (to print PDF). No matter the way I tried, the Print function doesn't work and I cannot neither print or even enter the printer preferrences menu! My MacBook Pro has worked before with other printers, but now with the Samsung it doesn't work at all... Though, if I drag and drop a document, jpg, pdf in the printer queue, it prints just fine, but that method gives me absolutely no freedom to the printing... Could it be something from the Computer -> Machintosh HD -> Library -> Printers? Because a friend of mine was recently trying to save me some disk space, and therefore erasing part of the HP printer (to remove the previous printer I owned)...
If anyone has any idea, that would be much appreciated
Thank you in advance

Do the sensible thing, as you say neither Preview nor Pages print, try other programs eg TextEdit. If none of them print then it is a System problem and very likely the printer drivers are AWOL or were never installed.
Go to Samsung's website and download their software for the Mac:

aspaceman,
Perhaps I owe you an apology. Having re-read that downloading from HP was unsuccessful I feel uncomfortable. Can I suggest you update your 10.6 system (as noted in your profile) to 10.6.8 (if it is not already there) by using the
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 combo update plus any software updates that then apply.

Copy Function Doesn't Work After Updating user.js File

I tried the Copy Function at the web site www.gogvo.com and got an error message from Firefox that Copy wasn't enabled. I got more info and created a user.js file in my Profile with the above site inserted following directions on the Troubleshooting Help page. I restarted Firefox but still can't use the Copy Function when I right-click a highlighted field to Copy. I have no problem when I use Internet Explorer 9 with my Windows 7 Home Premium. I have the latest version of Firefox. I have no problem copying on other sites, such as MSN Hotmail.

I tried {Ctrl+C} and that doesn't work. I deleted the user.js file and downloaded the allowclipboard-helper file extension, and that doesn't work. I only have this Copy/Paste problem HERE: [http://www.gogvo.com/affiliates/optin_message.php GVO Responder Opt-in Message Edit] and don't have any Copy/Paste problems anywhere else. Is there another solution to try?

How to open and close files from UIwindow my function doesn't work

Hello guys!
I am trying to create a simple ui-interface.
I made one button so far.
but my function does not work.
if I run the function without dialog box it works perfectly!
when I running the function in the dialog window, picking a file and open, nothing happens why?
please help me with a correct code.
also how do I write 2 functions that also closing a file and saving a file?
here is my simple code.
var w = new Window ("dialog");
button.onClick = function () {
OpenMyFile();
w.show ();
function OpenMyFile(){
var myFile = File.openDialog();
app.open(myFile)
Thank you in advance.

Well, to answer your first question, you've added an event listener, but you haven't actually added the button itself.
try this:
var w = new Window ("dialog");
b = w.add("button", undefined, "Click me!");
b.onClick = function () {
OpenMyFile();
w.show ();
function OpenMyFile(){
var myFile = File.openDialog();
app.open(myFile)

'Find' function doesn't work on some HP documents

For some pdf doc's I downloaded from HP, if I copy some characters from the text and then paste them into the Find box, the characters show up as hieroglyphs (mostly squares) in the Find box. And then actually executing the Find using those characters doesn't work, because it can't find the very word that I copied them from! On top of that, if I manually type a word into the Find box (showing normal letters), it won't find it even though I can see it within the text on the page showing on the screen. Very strange! In documents other than these old HP documents, the Find function works fine.
I looked into the document properties (menu: File >> Properties >> Fonts) and see that there are 9 fonts that have names I have never heard of before, and those fonts say "(Embedded Subset)" after the font name and "Encoding: Custom" in the font descriptions. There were a few normal fonts listed before these for that document as well.
Anyone have any idea what is going on?

It's hard to say without seeing the actual, source content, but given what you are describing, I would venture a guess that the source content is of too poor a quality to OCR reliably and accurately. To test this theory, after running OCR, identify a term that you can confirm is present, but that the search feature cannot identify. Then, copy and paste that term into Word or Notepad. What I expect you will note is that a "0" (zero) has been identified as an "8," and other things of that nature. OCR processing is garbage in, garbage out, so the source always has to be considered. Repeat this process across the document to see if experience similar results.
You don't describe how exactly you are transferring the microfilm "images" to PDF, so it's difficult to say if that process is at issue or could be improved. I suspect that's contributing to the problem, though.
Finally, with regard to the degraded image quality, you want to make sure you are selecting "Searchable Image (Exact)" from the OCR dialogue. ClearScan or any type of downsampling will likely cause or contribute to the type of issue you are describing. In a situation with low-quality source material, you would not want to use these other options.
Hope that helps!
