The Magnifying Glass
Okay, another thing I really (thought I would have) liked about BB OS 10.3.1 is the magnifying glass that lets you use the keyboard-**bleep**-touchpad to easily pinpoint precisely where to insert the cursor...but it looks like this functionality is only available when inputting data, as in populating text fields...that's all???
Would have been great as a mouse pointer substitute. As it is, it isn't even available in all cases of a text input field, either. For example, on Google Calendar, it pops up once an event is being edited, but not for any text input field available through the primaray calendar view itself at first....
Anyway, another rather underwhelming day with BlackBerry!
there is no perfect phone that will do everything you want
you need to find one that will best work for you
This forum is run by Lithium and they have many sites that have to contend with a template for all.
I bid you good day sir

How can I get the magnifying glass in Preview to work?
I have the problem that the magnifying glass in Preview is simply a grey circle. It's not magnifying anything. Does anyone of you know where the problem is? How can I get it to work? Deleting the .plist files in the Prefs didn't do the trick. Thank you very much.
I don't believe there is such a thing on the Mac Pro (trash can), but I did finally get something to work with a not-very-instinctive combination of System Preferences (select USB mic), Audio MiDi Setup (select USB mic), and Premier Pro Preferences, Audio Hardware (DO NOT select the USB mic, but rather the System Default Input/Output). No other combination worked (I tried them all), and when I tried changing Audio MiDi settings while Premier Pro was running, I'd occasionally get the endless spinning wheel that required a re-start. Even with all this, one channel was peaked-out with noise (source?) which I couldn't eliminate with any settings (can do it in post, however). Overall a disappointing experience. I don't know why the Audio MiDi Setup has to be involved, or why this was so difficult with my set-up (I'm not ruling out user error).
Any further advice is more than welcome,

Can anyone help me display the calendar list using an iphone4 with iso 7.1.1? I have already tried tapping the magnifying glass and that doesn't work.
That icon allows for the calendar month to display with the appts for that month below. I want to see only the list of appointments without the month displaying. I use to be able to get that display but since the last update tapping the magnifiying glass doesn't work.

As the title states, whenever is go to correct a typo in my messages using the magnifying glass my phone freezes up temporarily. It takes about 30 sec before its back to normal. It only happens when I'm in the messaging app and I don't know why it started doing it all of a sudden. I have had it for about a 15 months now. Any help would be great
Double tap Home button and delete Messages app from multitask-list.
Do the reset keyboard again as stated above.
and finally do iPhone Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data -

Mouse pointer disappears after using the magnifying glass in the color picker
Hello,
I've a problem (one more) with Lion on a Mac mini 2010. Every time I select a color from the screen using the magnifying glass in the color picker, the mouse pointer disappears. I've to move the mouse to the top of the screen and try to click the bar menu. If I succeed, I get the pointer back.
Someone with the same problem?
Thanks for readingI've found a partial solution: The probem doesn't affect to a new fresh user, so you can backup your data, create a new temporary (admin) user, delete the original account and create it again with the same name (to avoid file permission troubles). Remember to backup your data or it will be lost.

My "search" section in itunes on my iphone is not working. When I press the magnifying glass the screen is blank. Any suggestions? Thx
Hello linaka21,
Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes Store, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

A magnifying glass and search box show up in my e-mails and I can't read them unless I hit reply or forward. how do I get rid of the magnifying glass and search box?
First, some clarification:
* The location bar (often called the "awesome bar") is the larger bar on the left that shows you the address of the page you are currently viewing. As you type in the location bar it searches your history and bookmarks for matches.
* The search bar is the smaller one on the right. It typically displays an icon of whichever search engine is currently selected and may display search suggestions as you type in it.
It sounds like you are referring to the search bar rather than the location bar. You can change search engines for the search bar by clicking on the icon on the left edge of the search bar and choosing a different one. You can also choose "Manage Search Engines" to remove ones you aren't interested in using.
It also sounds like Bearshare might have changed your homepage in Firefox. To restore that you will need to open the preferences menu (click Tools > Preferences), go to the General tab (first on the top left), and click "Restore to Default". -
Is there a fix for the bug where my BRAND NEW iphone 5S is locking up when I enable the magnifying glass to edit a text and it locks up!?
Try a reboot press & hold power button & menu until Apple Logo comes on then wait
you will not lose any data.
That may fix your problem.

My Iphone 5s has recently started freezing when i try to send a message/ use my magnifying glass. PLEASE HELP
Hi Oli_boss,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it is frustrating when you cannot use the Messages application as you would expect. The first thing I would suggest would be to open the multitasking screen and quit the Messages app. After It quits, relaunch it fresh and test. If the Messages application is still having the same performance issues, try restarting the iPhone. Those steps and others can be found in the following article.

My magnifier (the magnifying glass icon) has disappeared. How do I restore it?
I am trying to get rid of a program I accidentally downloaded. The instructions say to click on the magnifier to begin. Well, it was there but now it is gone. How do I get it back?
Sorry, did not know it wanted money. There are many free mal-ware scans,
but like that one, some of then want money.
As to the downloads, I wrote this some time ago;
It’s very sad, but many of the software down-loaders / installers will trick you
into installing not only their program, '''but other programs as well'''.
You have heard of the '''fine print in shady contracts''', right? Well, some
installers you need to look at the '''itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print'''.
You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program
you want by using the '''recommended''' option. But if you use the
'''Manual Option Instead''', you discover all kinds of stuff that
'''you do not even know what it is or what it does'''. From now on,
everyone needs to '''Use The Manual Option''' to put a stop to this. -
Anyone find the "Magnifying Glass"?
If you did, you know what I'm talking about and reacted with "Cool!" when you found it...
I'll give you a hint... I discovered it in the Notes area...Hey I only had the phone (make that handheld computer) a day. I thought you couldn't place the cursor anywhere but the beginning or end of the word! I'm thinking what BS! I was so impressed I was going to start a thread but did a search first. It's like a mini loupe tool from Aperture. Bravo to the folks who came up with it! Now can I please get support in Aperture for my R-D1 and GX100?
Just type a word or two in Notes and then touch and hold your finger on one of them.
