Timeline cursor has a Left/Right Arrow with red diagonal line

I am trying to edit a timeline in Premiere, but the cursor changes to a Left/Right arrow with a red line across it. I've never seen this cursor before in CS4 and it is preventing me from moving clips in the timeline.
I tried to take a screen grab to show you all, but the cursor is always hidden in the final grab.
I resorted to drawing the curson in MS Paint.
I feel like such a *******.
I have searched high and low on Google.
Please help

Hi,
I'm using Adobe Premier and trying to find the key command to move the cursor in the timeline from the beginning of one clip to the beginning of the next clip, and back, or as a way of quickly scrolling through clips one at a time.
In FCP I use the arrow commands.
Can you help me?
Thanks!

Battery Icon with Red Diagonal Line

My phone is displaying a Battery icon with a red diagonal line. I figured the battery had finally died and ordered a new battery. When I installed the new battery it displays the same thing. I have tried the Support Q&A and unplugged from the charger, removed the battery, waited a while, reinstalled the battery and then plugged into the charger. Nothing.
I tried the same procedure but used the USB cable to try to charge through the USB in case my charger was the problem.
I have waited for a while now and the icon is still displaying.
Any help?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yep! Same issue with my 8800.
Bought a new wall charger as well as a new battery as the old one had expanded.
Let's see how it goes.

I cannot get the color picker to work in CSS Designer- it is a box with red diagonal line- I used to be able to use the edit rule in the lower properties box- but now that will not come up.

Can anyone help?

Working through David's book - trouble with Control-Left/Right Arrow

I have worked my way through David Nahmani's book in the Apple Pro Training series and it is EXCELLENT! It's the best investment I've made in a long time. The investment I made in the new computer and software would be so much less AWESOME had I not found this little gem. I do have a question, though...
When it comes to the command keys, I can't get the Control-Left/Right Arrow commands to work. They are supposed to be zoom keys - but they just wipe my window left and right. I'm probably doing something wrong. Anyone know what it is?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Gina

Gina,
The problem is that Control + Arrow Keys is the default key command to switch between Spaces (window sets) in Leopard. So, here's what you do:
1. Open System Preferences
2. Click on "Exposé & Spaces" (top row, fourth icon from the left)
3. Click on the "Spaces" tab
4. In the bottom portion of the window you'll see a section for "Keyboard and Mouse Shortcuts", in the second pulldown menu change the setting from "^ Arrow Keys" to another of the choices. I personally use the second choice, which is Command + Option + Arrow Keys.
Now, back in Logic your Control + Arrow Keys should be controlling your Arrange window zoom.
Hope this helps!

Command-Left/Right Arrow not working

Very strange behavior I'm seeing today.
My left/right arrow keys work. Even Option-Left/Right works correctly.
But, Command-Left-Right do not work. No movement at all.
Curiously, Shift-Command-Left/Right work fine.
I've not changed any keyboard shortcuts recently. I've checked the keyboard shortcuts that are currently defined. Nothing that would indicate a problem, but clearly there is.

Just found a solution that worked for me here. Basically, it seems to be a bug with the Dock. If you type "killall Dock" (the command is case-sensitive) into the command line in Terminal, it restarts the Dock. After that the arrows seem to work normally again.

DateChooser.. how to custom events on left/right arrow that switch the months?

Hi,
In the DateChooser there are left/right arrows to switch the
prev/next months, is there anyway that i can customize the events?
like overriding or something?
any help is really appreciated!!

You can always copy the SDk source to your project, change
the package name, and do whatever you want. I had to do this to
make the background of the date chooser truly transparent.

My Pages 09 document has circles with a diagonal line through it

My Pages 09 document has circles with a diagonal line through it (like a Do Not symbol) scattered across 14 pages. They appear to be dimmed and I can't select or click on them. I think they might be related to previous figures or text boxes that I have since deleted. Any advice about how to remove them?
Thanks

It sounds like you are trying to manually manage the iPod's contents. If that's the case, make sure the Manually manage music and videos option is enabled from under your iPod's Summary tab. See this article for more information.

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line on this page to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

IMac 8.1 3.06 GHz w/6 MB Ram, Lion and dead HD? all I get is "Gray Screen w/wirlie gig" but now for a new twist a circle with a diagonal line, like don't go. Is this a DEAD HD?

          I have a iMac 8.1 3.06 GHz w/6 MB Ram, and was running Mac OS X 10.6.8. My 500 GB WD5000AAKS was about 90% full. I had an issue with the admin password, it would not accept any of my known passwords. I ran for a while on the fingerprint reader I had, we have two users on the machine in our home. I tried many attempts to fix this problem without success I came up with a plan. That plan was a new HD, used a 2TB Samsung. plan worked like a charm. Installed a 4 GB Ram Chip and the new Samsung, formatted it, loaded Snow Leopard, and loaded what was on my Time Machine backup all was good.
          This was early July, then Lion was available I was happy with what I had, I had 1.450 TB of free space. So, what the heck, lets spring for Lion, that even went well for a not even 2 weeks, enough that I had several Time Machine backups.
           Then monitor goes flash, flash then I try a re-boot same gray screen with whirlie gig that I had when the the HD in my MacBook Pro died. Put the old 500 GB WD back in and all was fine, ran for a day. It was OK except back to no password and full. Went down to my local computer shops here in Rayong Thailand and sprung for a New 2 TB WDXXX, put that in, used my Snow Leopard disk to format and load OS X 10.6.8. I though that all was good, the load from Time Machine was slow and the time remaining was changing all the time, took about 3 hrs for about 300 MB that where on the LaCie.
          Now I have a password issue, however it asks for a password reset that it will NOT take and I don’t even get that now. All I get is the infamous “Gray Screen w/wirlie gig” but now for a new twist a circle with a diagonal line, like don’t go. Is this a DEAD HD? I plan to re-install the old 500GB just to systems check and if all is well I will take the “NEW” 2 TB WD back for replacement. I am thinking that I should put the new HD in and format and load Snow Leopard then up date to Lion then do my Time Machine backup. The only problem is does the circle with the diagonal line mean something more? If so how does one recover Lion with no disk if that is what I need to do. Yes, I have tried control “R” on boot, nadda, no response, “mai dee” no good. Ideas, please.

I have an iMac 8, 1 that I upgraded Leopard to Snow Leopard. It was totally updated with the latest from Apple when I bought and tried installing Lion. The upgrade failed, shot my OS and I couldn't boot. Had the constant spinner on a grey screen.. did a format of the drive, hdd repair and everything came back clean... got back to Snow Leopard and all the updates on it again and then retried the Lion thing... same bs... dead duck. Crashed my system one too many times. I can't see where a few small changes, mostly app related can be classified as an OS upgrade and is not compatible with my iMac. I have the stuff running on my Mac Pro but have yet to notice anything impressive. I've always used F3 and really didn't require Mission Control. Just open you app folder for launch pad... duh? I use the hot corners anyhow. As far as Safari is concerned... as a power user, Apple missed the boat on that for me.. full screen etc.. Wow. I don't like the new Mail either..
As you can see/read, I'm less than impressed with this release from Apple but I own so many of their products that I will have to put up with it for now... somehow the MS logo should apply to this release Steve.

Pictures disappear with a diagonal line

I only work on raw files. Sometimes when I make any change, pictures disappear and you can only see colored points with a diagonal line along the image. When I make another little change my picture newly appears. Is it due to insufficient ram? Thank you.

You can delete the program off your computer, you cant run it.
Contact the developer, perhaps they have made a Intel processor one.
If you need to run this program, if you can reinstall it back into Snow Leopard, you can revert the machine back to 10.6.8 and install it again.

Left/Right Arrows Stopped Working

Hello,
I just noticed my left and right arrow keys have stopped working. I updated my computer earlier today and when I tried to move the line cursor over, it wouldn't move. The top and bottom arrow keys work fine, but not the left and right keys.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

The cursor has changed to a dot with a circle around it; how can I get my normal cursor back?

The cursor in the main part of Firefox has changed to a dot with a circle around it. This only occurs in Firefox and only in the page display area. I still have the arrow in the tool bar and tabs area. When moving the cursor around in the display area the dot/circle is accompanied by a blinking arrow.

It's the quicktime plug-in causing the problem. If you disable it, your cursor will return to normal. Happened to me, and fixed it by doing that.

Using cmd-shift-left/right arrows in Terminal

Hi,
Is there a way to revert to Leopard's shortcuts for switching tabs in Terminal?
I'm working on a daily basis with both Leopard and Snow Leopard and the fact that I have to use cmd-shift-left/right in the former (which is coherent with Safari) and cmd-left/right in the latter (which is coherent with I wonder what?) is extremely annoying.
I tried using System Preferences Keyboard pane to assign the shortcut to no avail, but it doesn't seem to work at all.
BTW, I really don't understand why Apple changed this shortcut. As with any application, changing shortcuts is not really considerate for end users ;P
TIA

I don't know why you have command+left or right arrow for tab switching. i have command+shift +left or right arrow. running 10.6.2 here. also, the other shortcuts for this that show up in the window menu are command+} and command+{. those can be also be changed in keyboard system preferences. that should have worked for you. i can do it without problems. but I suggest you reset your terminal preference file. that should restore teh default shortcuts. quit terminal and delete the file ~/library/preferences/com.apple.terminal.plist. start terminal and the shortcuts should be commandshiftarrows.

Why can't I use the left/right arrow keys to go to the next page or back a page?

When reading manga, I used to be able to go to the next page or go back a page using the left and right arrow keys. Doesn't work anymore, how can I fix that?

Such a feature can only be added by an extension.
Maybe:

Macbook Pro Problem: System freezing with staggered diagonal lines

I started getting the diagonal lines about a month ago, exactly as pictured at http://www.maclife.com/forums/topic/106465 (where I have also posted this info) , and also with a total system freeze. Restarts/reboots did nothing- sometimes I could boot from DVD but lines would appear, then finally I was able to get the DVD to work enough to do a clean install of OS X 10.5 after backing up data via target disk.
While I have a read a lot about the NVidia chip issue possibly causing problems like this, my chip is ATI.
I bought this computer less than a year ago as factory refurb off of ebay, and was shocked right away at how hot it ran. iStatPro would show the hottest temps approaching 200F. A week ago, I removed both my 1gb memory sticks and restarted with each alone- one had immediate diagonal lines, and the other booted up perfectly. So- bad memory- fine and easy, just buy new memory, but just two days ago the lines came back. Just for kicks I removed the memory and put the 'bad' one in and the system ran flawlessly. (scratches head)
Ran for a while, until in the middle of browsing through Aperture, the lines came back. Shut down, switch memory sticks again, and everything is fine again. I began to suspect temperature was the culprit- memory gets hot and stops working and put in a cold one and everything works. I've downloaded HardwareMonitor and SMC fan control and at this time am experimenting with fans speeds and running temps to see if a threshold starts to show up. Today I had the fans running at 2000rpm, and had both memory sticks in, but then got the lines (again while browsing safari and aperture open). I now have the fans at 5000 rpm with one stick of memory in.
One other thing I've noticed is that the memory controller was approaching 140F at times with the power cord plugged in and charging, but would drop immediately by 30+ degrees when I disconnected the power cord. Is that normal?
Anyway- hoping my info will give someone more technically informed than me an 'aha!' moment. Hopefully we can figure something out- I don't have Applecare!

Hi Shawn,
The image that you linked to seems to have disappeared, I'm afraid.
I'm afraid just because you have an ATI chip doesn't mean that you can discount the possibility of a graphics hardware issue. ATI chips fail too, on occasions of course. There are other hardware possibilities with such things as well, of course. cables, inverters, etc etc.
Not sure what you were doing when you experienced that 200ºF (or which particular temp you are referring to) but it is certainly higher than you would like under normal operation. The trouble with using things like SMCfan control in such situations is that it can mask other, underlying, issues that really need to be addressed like sensor problems or ventilation obstructions. Potentially a bit like taking an asprin to deal with a brain tumor!
Personally I think you should take your Mac in to a service centre and see if the root cause of your issues can be tracked down, rather than using temporary ad hoc fixes.
Cheers and good luck
Rod
