The infamous 'click'

Hello all. My MacBook Pro recently started 'clicking' near the right speaker. I'm assuming it's the fan. I didn't want to do this, but I'm sending it in. All these people that keep getting there's replaced annoy me. But now that I'm experiencing the problem myself, I understand completely. I'm not getting my laptop replaced, just the fan.
All potential buyers: Note that I am extremely happy with my MBP. It is lightning fast and I wouldn't trade it for anything (except maybe a 17" ) Apple care was very helpful and the process took less than 20 minutes on the phone. They are overnighting the box and the repair should only take 3 days. Don't let this deter you from buying a MBP! The newer revisions shouldn't be as... 'buggy'. Mine is a week 13, by the way.
Just thought I'd make this post to let people know, the problem is out there. Hopefully the newer ones don't exhibit this problem. First gen apple products seem to always be a little buggy, but there would never be 2nd gen without us guinea pigs

Do you know how to check your serial number?
If not, go to the blue apple at the top left corner and select About This Mac. Where is has your version number, click twice until it gives you your serial number. The build week is the two digits following the 6 (i.e. W86__). I bought mine on 4-27-06, and it's a week 13.

Stop the report from firing until the user clicks the Go button?

Hi All,
Is there a way to stop the report from firing until the user clicks the Go button? At the moment it is populating when I open the dashboard page. I found something online that said i could use the Page Options>Save Current Settings> For Others.. but even though i am signed in as an administrator i only see a For Me.. option. Also, even after setting this option i would like to be able to hit the 'Go' button to run the report and have it uncollapse the section. Is this possible?
Thanks

Thanks for the replies,
In my report i am trying to constrain the report to todays data only. However the only prompt i have is for another column. If i place a filter on the date column with Year=0000 it will not change with the prompt selection and so will never return any results. Is there any other way?
It seems wasteful to fire a request to the database onload of the page. Is there an option to only fire a request what the prompts are entered? I will be using a stored proc which needs parameters to run the request so it would be good to be able to set the report to not run until it has parameters entered
Thanks

Is there a way to open the right click menu on the left side of your pointer?

Whenever I try to right-click an object that's located on the right side of the screen, the pointer always automatically click whatever entry in the right-click menu which just happens to be under the pointer the moment the menu is opened. I noticed that the reason this happens is because the right click menu always forces itself to open on the right side of the pointer, and when there isn't enough space, the right-click menu will open underneath the pointer. Since this is horribly inconvenient, is there a way to open the right-click menu on the left side of your pointer?

Are you saying you have an icon on the far right side and when you rt click on it, your pointer ends up opening wherever it lands? That is a two step process, or normally should be at least a two step process. Do you have a Mouse in your Control Panel? You should check, because there may be some properties with which you can play. For instance, I can switch primary and secondary functions on my mouse buttons by checking a box.
When I rt click on right side, the menu opens on the left.
When I rt click on left side, the menu opens on the right.
In order for me to take an action, I then have to move to an area in that menu and click.
I hope I understood your question correctly.

Originally when I cliked on a new email in the inbox, it opened immediately. Now I have to double click on it to open. How do I get back to the single click?

It now takes a double click to open an email. How do you get it to open on the first click?

There is no need to open two threads for the same question.

Inside the browser, right click on the mouse seems to be disabled. How can I enable the right click button? It works fine on toolbars and tab bar but not inside tabs or windows. I would like to be able to copy and paste and such. Thank you

Right mouse button does not open any menu when clicked inside of tabs or windows. Works properly on the toolbars, in the address line, search bar...etc. but has no action on the page I'm browsing. I purchased a mouse recently and like the old one, the right button works in all other areas of my operating system. I would like to know if there is a setting in firefox that I can change to correct this.

There are also websites that can disable the right-click context menu.

How can I pause a slide until the user clicks a button?

I wish to pause a slide until the user clicks a button (which I've created out of a Smartshape). The thing is that I haven't added a click box object over the smartshape but have only set the smartshape properties to "Use as Button". If I were to add a clickbox object, I would get a "Pause project until user clicks" in the options section of the properties. However in using a smartshape as a button, I cannot find this option. I am using Captivate 6. Seems strange as I would have expected to see the same checkbox option even if I were to use a smartshape as a button but I dont. Can't someone help me and let me know if I'm missing something.
Of course I could use a clickbox over my smartshape to achieve what I want, but I want to avoid thsi for two reason:
I want to avoid adding another object when I dont need it.
My smartshape is a right arrow (indicating "Begin"), and I dont want a squarish click box sitting on top of a triangle because that just shows the hand pointer even if the cursor isn't exactly over the arrow button because it enter the clickbox area.
Thanks,
Sean

Select the Smart Shape button , go to Properties > Timing accordion > Pause After and set the number of seconds from the beginning of the slide for it to pause.

A script that captures the coordinates of the mouse clicks and saves them into a file

Hello,
I'm trying to create a cartoon taking a movie (I've chosen blade runner) as base. I've got the real movie and I've exported all the pictures using VirtualDUB. Now I have a lot of images to modify. I would like to modify the actors faces with the faces generated by Facegen modeller. I'm thinking how to make the whole process automatic because I have a lot of images to manage. I've chosen to use Automate BPA,because it seems the best for this matter. I'm a newbie,so this is my first attempt using Adobe Photoshop and Automate BPA. I wrote a little script. It takes a face generated with Facegen modeller and tries to put it above the original actors faces. But it doesn't work very good and I'm not really satisfied,because the process is not fully automated. To save some time I need to write a script that captures the coordinates of the mouse when I click over the faces and that saves them into a file,so that Automate BPA can read these coordinates from that file and can put the face generated with Facegen Modeller above the original face. I think that Automate BPA is not good for this matter. I think that two coordinates are enough,X and Y. They can be the coordinates of the nose,because it is always in the middle of every face. It is relevant to knows how big should be the layer of the new face,too. This is the Automate BPA code that I wrote :
<AMVARIABLE NAME="nome_foto" TYPE="TEXT"></AMVARIABLE>

and this is a short video to explain better what I want to do :
http://www.flickr.com/photos/26687972@N03/5331705934/
In the last scene of the video you will see the script asking to input the X and the Y coordinates of the nose. This request is time consuming. For this reason I want to write a script that captures automatically the coordinates of the mouse clicks. The only thing to do should be click over the nose and the script should make the rest. As "c.pfaffenbichler" suggested here : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/775219, I could explore 3 ways :
1) use the Color Sampler Tool’s input with a conventional Photoshop Script.
2) use After Effects would provide a better solution.
3) Photoshop’s Animation Panel might also offer some easier way as it might be possible to load two movies (or one movie and one image) and animate the one with the rendered head in relation to the other.
Since I'm a totally newbie in graphic and animation,could you help me to explore these ways ? Thanks for your cooperation.

These are the coordinates of the contours of the face that you see on the picture. Can you explain to me how they are calculated ? The coordinates of the first colums are intuitive,but I'm not able to understand how are calculated the coordinates of the second one.
Thanks.
1 COL 2 COL (how are calculated these values ?)

Hello
Simple problem - don,t know how to solve it.
With Premiere CC when I try to do a selection (click... drag... release the click) very often it stop way before the end of the move I'm swinging the Magic Mouse. I taught that the mouse clicking was defective and went to get a new Magic Mouse after lots of frustration. Today, I have an edit to do it it does the SAME thing !!
I was like ????#$%?&*(???
Opened all the lights and taught I've trow the new mouse to the garbage and was using the defective mouse again... no !! - ??
Actually, the bran new mouse is doing the same thing. What I understand after investigating on the motion and watching carefully my fingers !! - is that when I click I have to keep my finger at the EXACT same place on the mouse... drag and release and it's fine. If I click by pushing on the mouse and my finder is moving of a 1/32th of a millimeter, it will release and my selection will be to redo. You can understand my frustration ! - 75$ later... same problem, but I know that if I click with about 5 pounds of pressure and trying to pass my finger through the plastic of the mouse, it you stay steady and make it !
The problem is that scrolling is enable while clicking and it bugs.
How to disable it ??
Simple question - can't find the answer !

Helllooo !?
sorry but the Magic Mouse is just useless with the new Adobe Premiere CC and since I'm not the only one but can't find answer this is really disappointing. This mouse is just fantastic and now I have to swap from a USB mouse to the Magic Mouse every times I do some editing. My USB mouse if hurting my hand somehow and I want to got back to the Magic Mouse asap. Please - for sure there is a simple solution !
Thanks !!

Is there a way to remove the mouse click splash that appears on See It!

Can I remove the red splash that appears on the mouse click when playing back a recording in See It mode?
The client thinks that it is not visually appealing.

You can request new features in this forum: <br />
http://webmailnotifier.mozdev.org/drupal/forum/
But I don't think it would be possible, exactly like you described. An extension can't do anything until Firefox is opened and running. Plus the developer would have to create a different version for every Operating System he decided to support with a feature like that - Windoze, MacOSX, and Linux - to be able to use the "System Tray".

Installed snow leopard and the right click on my mouse no longer works. Any ideas?

I just replaced my hard drive and installed a clean copy snow leopard with all updates. The right mouse button (normal wired mouse that came with imac) with the menu drop down is no longer working. changed secondary button in mouse settings and got the right click menu but now when I right click the file or group of files are no longer highlighted. this *****. any ideas?? Between the hassle of replacing a hard drive, mouse problems, firefox, opera, office mac and elgato tv problems and issues im fed up.

Apple menu -> System preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse should give you controls over the mouse. If not, either Steer Mouse or USB Overdrive might give you better control.

In Yosemite Mail, the control click option no longer works when clicking on attachments, that previously allowed you to save, quicklook, and select app to open with. Any solutions?

Hi
It shows just 4 always as an option in the "open with" lsit. Also I haven't downloaded any apps for a while so why would it start now?
Do you know how I can estabilsh how many apps are counting toward this 10 and what they are?

Is there any way to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?

Is there any way (about:config tweak, or something) to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?
Screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://picsend.net/images/873089StupidReloadSto.png

I did try the add-on ''Menu Editor'' https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ but even when I separate the navigation reload and stop icons and explicitly have both stop and reload set to be visible on the right click context menu I only get the one option showing.
Whilst there may be some way of changing this I do not know how to and I do not really see any use case for making such a change. Only one option of the choice: stop or reload, is available at any instance in time, but that is the option you are able to use, the other option is not active and so is not displayed.

How can I change the hotkey assignments for options listed in the context-click (right-click) menu?

How can I change the letter assignments designated to the options that appear in the right-click drop-down menu?
I frequently save specific items and inspect elements in webpages, however currently the key assignment for 'View Page Info' is the letter ' i ', which inconveniently is located out of the reach of my left hand.
Rather than forcing ambidextrous mouse usage to allow my right-hand to rest on the keyboard, if I could be pointed in the right direction for customizing these assignments I would greatly appreciate it. I have been able to disable some of the menu items I don't use with firebug but didn't see/didn't know how to go about customizing this option in about:config or deeper in the program files.
Thanks ahead of time, I'm sure this will be a quick and hopefully easy file/preference name assignment I just need to add, I just couldn't find any forums that had already addressed the request.

While that add-on is pretty useful and handy for customizing the keyboard shortcuts for items housed in the Menu Bar, it does not provide the resource to change the key combinations assigned to items in the context-click menu
(the one that appears when you right-click a HTML element or image or such with specific actions pertaining to the item you clicked on - See image)

I can't burn purchased tunes on a disc because of the infamous "error 4310". Why are loyal customers copntinually frustrated with the lack of or nonexistent answer to our dilemma? ITunes, why offer "support" if you are unwilling to give it?

I cannot burn purchased tunes on a blank disc because of the infamous "error 4310". Countless ITunes customers are frustrated that there are no "free" answers for this dilemma. Unfortunately, the "support" that is so highly promoted and encouraged is merely community members venting their frustrations.
ITuines this is not at all professional on your part.

Hi to everyone that replied and many thanks for your input.
I have bought well known and established artists CD's containing their music, track lists and artwork files from branded retailers. When I have loaded them into iTunes, it automatically loaded the artwork files FROM the CD I bought, so all that nonsense about audio CD's having nothing but audio isn't accurate. No, they were not DVD's either. I will endeavor to find a software package that CAN do what I need as an independent artist. iTunes just doesn't cut the mustard for me, even though it's free. I do know about issues with copyright and artists protection, but there should be something that can be done or made in iTunes, so it doesn't infringe copyright of artists, but can be used by artists like myself without the software being abused by freeloaders. Oh well, maybe when I'm too old for this malarkey...
