The dropdown menu and source list look like strange characters

I don't think this is the chinese letters people were talking about, it looks like small boxes and computer type language. Teh songs appear normal in lists. Any ideas?

Yeah, you could try deleting QuickTime then iTunes and reinstalling.
Or you could try resetting the itunes preferences file, not sure it will work though...directions for that are here.

When I select an email address from the dropdown menu and hit return, Thunderbird then fills in a different email address. Yosemite upgrade?

I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite and this new "feature" appeared. I often have several email addresses that contain the same set of characters. I just type the first few characters and then select the appropriate email address from the dropdown menu that appears. But if I hit return afterwards to enter another email address, the first address gets switched back automatically to the first one that appeared in the dropdown menu. The more characters I type, the more accurate it is, but it totally defeats the purpose of autofill if I have to type the entire email address! Anyone else having this problem? And can you guys please fix it? If you select something from the dropdown menu, it should stay selected.
Thanks!

This forum is filled with this same complaint. There is a bug reported on it. If and when they fix it is another question.
Version 24.6 works if you want to go back to a working version.

I want to move a selection (a person) into an image of a brick wall and have it look like the person was painted on the wall. Can it be done? Using CC on iMac. Thanks

Yes of course its Photoshop. Cut the person out copy to clipboard paste onto toe brick wall document and texture the layer using a displacement map for the brick wall. Look for Photoshop tutorials on using a displacement map.

Is anyone else having the finish rub off of the keys on their macbook? I've had mine for about 6 months and several keys look like the finish is wearing through. I went to the local genius bar today and the techs said they'd never seen this before.

Some people have seen their aluminum uni-body discoloring due to body oils. Go figure.
Normally putting anything over the keys/aluminum will hurt heat disspation, but you may need to use keyboard covers.
Or save up $500/year for new keyboards.
Neither is supposed to be a sarcastic answer. Either one could end up being the solution.
Good luck with it.

Hi, Welcome to the forums,
Is it the software update checking that you are talking about?
If its this can you just select 'Cancel' to stop it? or force quit?
It possible that the computer has lost its connection to the Apple servers and just needs to restart the process.
Or,
Is it a particular software update that you are running that has frozen up?

I have created an iMovie but cannot share it. I have looked at the help menu and have tried to follow these instructions but cannot get the sharing button to open anything.

Do you have MacKeeper installed? If so, you need to uninstall it. There is a known issue where MacKeeper disables all the sharing functions from the new iMovie.
Uninstall MacKeeper, then re-install iMovie.
Keep MacKeeper uninstalled.

I have 1P button (1Password), but the dropdown menu of options is not available. I have uninstalled the extension and reinstalled it per Agile Web Solutions.

Agile Web Solutions provides an extension for Firefox that allows users to click a 1P button to communicate with their Macintosh password manager, 1Password. I have installed the extension, and the 1P button is available in the Firefox 4 interface, but the dropdown menu of options for entering passwords stored in 1Password is not available when the 1P button is clicked as it is in Firefox 3 and other browsers.

You had to have some kudos for the effort put in to your thread as week as the point you make.

The dropdown menu in the banner should be behind the text fields.

Hi Andy,
In our Application we have three Menus...The problem we are facing in that when ever we move the cursor, a drop down list will appear.. which is covering the text fields...

Can u pls help me in this...
anoo..

Hi Anoo,
(You can actually ask questions to everyone, not just me!)
Normally, dropdown menus are supposed to be on top of all other items, so the user can pick an option from the menu. In fact, usually the problem is that select lists in IE appear on top of menus, not the other way around!
What you may have to look in to is adding a z-index value to items. Have a look at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms531188(VS.85).aspx
z-indexes determine the order in which items appear when two or more occupy the same space on the page. The higher the number the nearer to the top that item is. You can use negative or positive numbers. So, if item A has a z-index of 1 and item B has a z-index of 2, then item B will appear on top of item A.
A z-index can be set as a style on your menus:
<........ style="z-index:-1".....>Andy

Trying to install the Aim version of ichat on my new mac I only seem to be using the messages I want it to look like the old aim i used on my old mac

I used to run ichat though Aim, I just purchased a new mac mini and I am able to socialize then different wasy except Ichat through aim. It's very important that i use this because it's the only way to keep up with my professors, colleages and family members who all use ichat through aim

Hi,
(Umm, I was only away a few days - Community Specialists are supposed to wait a week)
The Messages app is basically iChat with the iOS Messages app added on.
This adds the iMessages features. (essentially Apple's Own Messaging service like AIM or MSN but more like a system without a Buddy list)
If you happened to have Migrated your User account from your old Computer you may find that the System Preferences > Mail, Contact and Calendars pane has picked up on both emails and Names and IDs used in iChat and they may be active for Messages.
On first run Messages will tend to ask for an Apple ID to be "registered" with the iMessages service.
Once you have done this it will open the Main Messages window (It has become a Tabbed Chat and Interface combined purpose window that is "always On" by default.
As Braden has said you can add a Screen Name or Jabber ID or a Yahoo ID.
The Add Pane reduces the AIM Variants for MobileMe and @Mac.com to just AIM (add the Screen Name in Full) but retains the Google separation in Jabber.
The next issue is that by default Buddy Lists are not on Show.
Go to the Window Menu and use the "Buddies" or "CMD + 1" keystrokes.
This then is a combined window (Of all the Buddy List accounts such as Bonjour if enabled, Jabber/Google/Facebook or Yahoo or AIM (valid) ones.
In the Preferences > General Section there is a line about "Gather All Accounts into one List"
Unticking this will separate out the Buddy lists you have.
To be clear.
You will be asked for an Apple ID to "Register" for iMessages.
Other Account have Buddy Lists
By Default these appear in one List but can be separated.
As you may know certain Apple IDs ending in @mac.com and those linked to iCloud using @me.com and @icloud.com ending are also Valid AIM Screen Names.
If you use your Apple ID as your AIM Name then you will have to enter it as the Apple ID for iMessages and then in the Add Pane as the AIM name.
Main Window (Window Menu > Messages, CMD +0 )
Has an icon that looks like a square box and pencil.
This will add a "New Message" to the left.
The blue icon that appears top right can be used to select Contact (for iMessages) or Buddies.
Also Typing a Name in the "To" spot will bring up a list of Contacts and Buddies with indicators as to whether they are iMessages, AIM or Jabber or Yahoo potential connections.
Chats (Buddy lists) or Conversations (iMessages contacts) remain AIM to AIM, Jabber to Jabber or iMessages to iMessages.
If you have a Valid AIM Name you will have to add this to Messages to continue where you left off in iChat.

Help needed for as3 dropdown menu and html

First of all hello! I have to create a html website for a company. The design i've made is in photoshop ....and i have to create a dropdown menu. The first question is : Can i create the dropdown menu in flash without having to use html frames? Can i link one of the buttons of the menu in a html page so that it loads in the same browser window another html page (if so .... with what function?)? Please ... i need to know ... because i simply prefer to implement it in flash rather then html. And the second big question is : Can the stage in flash be transparent? Because if i make the menu in it, it will be impossible to match any dimensions of the stage .... and i would like to embed it into a html page...if possible without the stage color >..... Thanks in advance!!!! Tudor

For opening pages you want to look into using the navigateToURL() function. The help documentation provides information abiout it an how to control the window aspect as well.
To make the stage transparent is more of an html aspect than a Flash aspect, though you can set it up to publish that way. The key is to set the wmode paraemter that is in the html embedding code to "transparent". I am not sure if all browsers supports this feature, but I think more are willing to.
