The Illustrator CC doc icon now bounces...... errrr why?
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to turn off the bouncing doc icon on Illustrator CC? (OS X)
I work with large files that can take a while to save and so while they are saving I get on with other stuff (if a web page takes more than 5 seconds to load another tab is open with another web page opening, I'm busy and I don't like waiting!).
But whereas before I could leave Illustrator to merrily save my file trusting that it would know what it's doing, it now feels the need to repeatedly bounce the doc icon just to make sure I hadn't forgotten that it was saving a file.... Admittedly my memory isn't the best but I've never yet forgotten that I was saving a file whilst doing something else!
I haven't been able to find the preference to turn off 'limited attention span reminder' so can anyone else help me please find it or has this been added like a mandatory 'mind the step' sign, for people who probably shouldn't be allowed out unsupervised?
Frustrated much?
Pete
Don't believe that you can modify a wait time as the icon is supposed to bounce anytime an app needs your attention. You can disable the bouncing icon as per the instructions here, http://www.switchingtomac.com/tutorials/how-to-permanently-stop-dock-icons-from-bouncing/.

In a website, when an email link is clicked, the "mailto:email@address" tag is called, which opens the default mail client.
A friend has Yahoo web mail as his default mail client. When he clicks on such an email link in a website, the TO address appears in the new email form prepended with the "mailto:" tag, as in mailto:[email protected] This of course bounces.
I don't use web mail, so can't help him, but maybe you can provide a reason or a cure for this. Thank you.http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Changing+the+e-mail+program+used+by+Firefox

Word 2008: Finder Doc Icon is generic doc icon
This isn't a big deal, but the Finder's icons for a Word doc seem to be the generic looking doc icon rather than the Word Doc icon. How do I fix that?
View menu --> Show View Options --> Show document preview: uncheck it.

When I login, all of my desktop items are gone, the "Finder" icon is bouncing and a message asking to restore windows is blinking but unresponsive. I can't exit out of it. What do I do? I've tried force quitting, and it doesn't get rid of this message. When I login to my husband's account, this message does not appear.
Hey sunnyday7!
Here is an article that can help you address this issue:
OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3411
Additional Information
OS X automatically relaunches the Finder when it is quit. If the Finder is unresponsive, use Force Quit to relaunch it. Select Finder in the Force Quit Window or Dock, then click Relaunch.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

When I try to open safari the icon stats bouncing and then nothing happens other than the cursor turning to a spinning rainbow wheel when it hoovers on the top main menu bar. I have shut down and restart several times. My safari worked yesterday and then today this, but with. I indication of a problem. I can't even get the browser window to open so that I can clear caches or reset anything. When I opened my computer this time I don't even get a bouncing icon. No recognition of selecting the program at all. If I go to spotlight and try to open safari from here I still get no response. Can you help?
Hi ...
If you have moved the Safari application from the Applications folder, move it back.
As far as the cache goes, there's a work around for that when you can't empty the Safari cache from the menu bar.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.aple.Safari.Cache.db. Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Try Safari.

After yesterday upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite I can no longer find in Mail the icon (looks like the Add To Contacts icon without the + mark) I used to press in order to obtain an e-mail address from my contact list. What procedure should I use now in order to quickly add an address to an e-mail that I wish to send?
BobOn the right of the To: field you will see a circled plus sign:

I have an IPod 2nd generation I bought from a pawn shop. It worked for a day but now when I try to charge it, it keeps switching back and forth from the large full screen icon of a low battery and a lighting bolt below to the blue screen with the apple symbol in the middle. I had it on charge all night but still dead.

It's simple... I want the Illustrator pen tool to ALWAYS make corner annchor points and NEVER smooth. Right now I have to convert every single one of them, or I have to do a work around every time I draw a line and make one of the handles disappear. Is there some simple setting out there that will just "make it so?"@
The video I am watching this guy is just dragging every line to make curves. And every anchor point is a corner. He is not switching back and forth between the pen and the anchor points tool, and he is not using the convert points tool. He draws a curved line and starts another straight line only to curve it with a click and a drag. It is super efficient, and I could save a world of time if I could figure out what he is doing.

This started yesterday. I switch on the computer, go into my User account and the Finder icon was bouncing in the deck while a window flashed on about Restoring Windows though you could never click on it because...it kept flashing. The folders on my desktop disappeared so I went into a secondary user account and opened it to find a virus scan. That user account had no issue with the bouncing Finder icon. I downloaded ClamXav and ran it but that being a rarely used user account, it found nothing infected. I went back in in Safe Mode and was able to see my invisible files but the Finder being unresponsive, I could basically only look at them. Also, I couldn't activate ClamXav after downloading it in that user account. All it did was allow me to see my files.
This morning, while I switched on the computer the Safe Mode came on without me holding down the Shift key. Sadly, it didn't get past the third of the little progress bar before shutting down the computer. This happened trying to open either user accounts. I'm shut out. I'm so shocked this happened. I called the ISP and he said everything was normal at his end, naturally in spite of a lot of freezing and not allowing more than one device on wifi at a time. This is an upgraded Internet service after moving to a new place. Otherwise for the few moments it lights up to show me the two users at log in, nothing is visually wrong.
If this has ever happened to anyone, please enlighten me. I've called a Mac repair shop and expect to bring my iMac in. It's barely two years old. : (When posting in Apple Communties/Forums/Message Boards.......It would help us to know which iMac model you have, which OS & version you're using, how much RAM, etc. You can have this info displayed on the bottom of every post by completing your system profile and filling in the information asked for.

reset all settings and contants ipad.Now ipad is not open?why/ on the screen always apple icon.
Why would you do that? That's not how you deal with issues on your iPad, that's how you deal with problems on poorly designed Windows machines.
Try this First...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
