The "option" button doesn't show up on Mac OS X install

My hardrive died in original Macbook Pro. Got a SSD 840 pro 256gb and 8gb of ram.
i installed the disk that came originally with Pro and procced to install.
whe i reach the " select destinaion " screen nothing shows up in the main box area. And the Option in bottom left corner is un clickable.
WHY is this!!???

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Did you format the SSD? Remember that it must be formatted in order to install an operating system, so close the Mac OS X installer, open Disk Utility and format it > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html

After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

HT2736 I purchased a tv show. I like it so much I was willing give as a gift. Unfortunately the gift button doesn't appear. It seems because I have already purchased it for myself, I am unable to give it as a gift.

Long over due screen shots.
Clearly the problem is ANY item I have purchased/own can not be gifted.
I can't believe I am the only one having this problem.
By the way I tried from my desktop in iTunes and guess what.......
SAME PROBLEM.
I find this all very amusing.
Someone in charge at iTunes HQ has either missed this or has some explanation for this.
I would love to know the reason.

Music is on the shuffle but doesn't show in iTunes

Okay. I've never had this problem before; I've got a 160GB iPod video and an old pink mini, both of which work fine with my computer(s) and iTunes.
My problem is the shuffle. I got the 2GB one brand new, straight from Apple. I keep all of my music on an external drive. When I first hooked up the shuffle along with the external drive it had a major freak out and one would disconnect the other one every time I tried to use both at once. So I googled, read that sometimes you can't have other things plugged in at the same time as the shuffle. Ended up hooking both to a USB hub and they worked perfectly together.
Plugged the shuffle back in today and there was no music listed on the shuffle in iTunes, however, it said that I had used up however many megabytes, with 71 songs on the shuffle. (You know the little bar down at the bottom?) Ejected it, hit play, and the music is all there. Reconnected, added one song, and it wiped out everything on the shuffle. So I readded everything I had on there, ejected, made sure I didn't have any playback problems, reconnected, and now the same thing is happening again. The bar shows that I've used the space but doesn't list any of my music. I haven't tried to add any more songs because I don't want to go through readding all of that stuff again right now.
So, any thoughts? I disabled automatic syncing for all of my iPods, and I don't use the autofill option. I've only used one of my computers to add music so far, and haven't had any problems adding purchased content.
Any help would be greeeatly appreciated. And if anyone is in need of a visual for what I'm talking about, screen caps are here:

but the iPod shuffle doesn't show up in the drives section so I can't change it to begin with.
Per the article above, you don't start with changing the drive letter of your iPod. You start by changing the drive letter of your networked volume (usually, an external drive).
"Resolution
Solution
This issue is documented in Microsoft Knowledge Base document 297694, "New Drive or Mapped Network Drive Not Available in Windows Explorer".
Changing the drive letter of your network volume should resolve the issue. If you are unable to change the drive letter of the network volume because your programs depend on a specific drive letter, then you can use the following steps to change the drive letter of your iPod instead.
Important: Changing the iPod drive letter may not affect what letter the iPod uses on subsequent connections, so it is not the best long-term solution. If you are unable to change the drive letter of your mapped network drives, contact your system administrator."

I'm trying to downgrade my storage on my ipod but when I chose my new storage i'm not able to complete the choice because the 'done' button doesn't do anything. can someone please give me some advice?

Are you choosing a different plan before tapping Done?
To downgrade, you should be doing the following:
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
Tap Change Storage Plan.
Tap Downgrade Options and enter your Apple ID password.
Choose a different plan to use when your current storage plan expires.
Tap Done.

The document Address doesn't show the block when country isn't USA

hello
i have a little problem, when I create a new document for a customer which ship to address's country is different from USA, the document Address doesn't show the block. i checked the bp address in the bp master data and the block is written, also when i click on the ... button near the ship or bill to address the block has a value !! but when i go back to the document, there is an empty space where the block has to be in the document address.
is there any configuration to solve this problem
thanks a lot!

Hi,
The configuration is under Admin-Setup-BP-Address Format. Each country has a built-in format for address initially.
Thanks,

Background image in extended awt.Button doesn't show.

Hi all
I have an applet that has only an awt.Button visible on the page. Because of layout requirements I need to style that button with a background image. I have extended the java.awt.Button like this:
     class ImageButton extends Button {
          public void paint(Graphics g) {
               super.paint(g);
               g.drawImage(getImage(getDocumentBase(), "../img/loadSertificate.jpg"),
                         0, 0, null);
     }and use the extended:
     public void init() {
          mSignButton = new ImageButton();
          mSignButton.setLocation(0, 0);
          Dimension appletSize = this.getSize();
          mSignButton.setSize(appletSize);
          mSignButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    signSelectedFile();
          this.setLayout(null);
          this.add(mSignButton);
     }Now everiting is ok but when the applet is loaded the background image doesn't show and only a plain gray button is visible. The interesting part is that the image does show after I click somewhere in the browser's window and later on it's always visible as expected.
Below is part from the log from the java console:
basic: Applet started

xmm sry but this was a forgotten repaint() :
          public void paint(Graphics g) {
               // call super's paint method
               super.paint(g);
               g.drawImage(getImage(getDocumentBase(), APPLET_BUTTON_IMAGE_URL),
                         0, 0, null);
               repaint();
          }Now it seems to work fine.

Ff22 has two top bars, both of which act simultaneously in the identical way. Furthermore, the BACK button doesn't light up on many web pages. That means I cann

Problem #1.
The first top bar has a firefox logo at upper left corner and the words "Ask a Question/Mozilla Support-Mozilla Firefox" are on the logo's right side. The first top bar has minimize, overlap and close buttons at the upper right corner. When I click on the logo, a short menu drops from it, which has choices like "restore"..."close".
The second top bar has the word "Firefox" at the upper left corner with a downward arrow beside it. They look like white letters contrast to the orange background of a huge button. When I click on it, a double paned menu shows up. It has many choices such as new tab, new private window...bookmarks, history, download...exit. The second top bar also has minimize, overlap and close buttons at the upper right corner, too. There are 7 word titles "file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools and help" below that huge orange button at the upper left corner. The logos and the address bar are below the 7 words.
I don't need 2 top bars. They occupy too much screen property.
Problem #2
The BACK button doesn't light up and cannot work on many web pages.
Thank you

It sounds like there is either an application or an extension of Firefox that is causing this problem.
You can launch Firefox in Safe mode to try and identify problems: http://mzl.la/MwuO4X
Also, this article might be of interest to you: http://mzl.la/NjT73w
Additionally, you can try and do a soft reset of Firefox if you are not able to solve this problem: http://mzl.la/MnSTZB

HT2729 How do I turn off the shuffle feature within a playlist on my iPhone? Tapping the shuffle button doesn't work

How do I turn off the shuffle feature within a playlist on my iPhone? Tapping the shuffle button doesn't work

The shuffle control shows up when you touch the screen in album view. This brings up the scrubber bar, repeat control and shuffle control. The shuffle control appears as crossed arrows. When it is blue it is On. When it is white it is Off.

Video call button doesn't show up

Trying to make a video call but the option isn't even showing up. Just says: video message, send photos , voice call and I'm. What in the world is going on..

I'm surprised that the button shows up at all if you override the paint method.
Why are you setting the location of the button in the paint method?
Personnally, if I wanted to display a button and an image in the same applet, I'd:
1) Use a Button in an Applet, not a JButton. I wouldn't mix Swing and plain AWT.
2) create a new component (say, a Canvas subclass) to display the image. I'd override paint() in this new component only.
3) add both the new component and the Button to the applet, in the constructor or init(), set the locations of these components there as well, probably just using a LayoutManager
4) I wouldn't even use try/catch in paint(), but if I did, I wouldn't ignore the exceptions it catches.

The "option" button doesn't show up on Mac OS X install
