Trying to Replace my f12 key...anyone know how?
Hi,
i just got a used iBook g4 and i love it! i got an f12 key to replace the one that was missing on the keyboard, but i dont know how to get it to stick on there. i thought i would be as easy as replacing a key on a PC keyboard, but i was mistaken.
if anyone knows how, i could use the help!
also, i would like to know how to remove a key if needed! THANKS

i am having a problem with my back lit keyboard on my 13in mac book pro. i have the box checked in the keyboard setting for auto so the keyboard should turn on and off in low light conditions but it doesnt. anyone know how i can getit to work properly?
I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Like I said, when trying to connect to the server, the installation makes no progress, for hours. I've tried re-downloading the installer, simply restarting the installation, and i can't think of anything else to do. Does anyone have a fix to this?
Do those folders exist on the server?
You'll need to navigate into the mailstore folder via terminal.
With dovecot, all folders start with a "."
Do you see all of those dup folders?
Check permissions on your entire mailstore, everything should be owned by '_dovecot' and group 'mail'
You could reset perms of the mailstore (assuming default location of the mailstore) with:
sudo chown -R _dovecot:mail /Library/Server/Mail/Data/mail/ -
Does anyone know how much it costs to replace an iPhone screen at the Apple Store?
Okay, so I got the amazing new iPhone 4S about three weeks ago and was so excited. That is until my cup slipped out of my hands this morning and landed on my phone, cracking the screen:/
Now, I love Apple products and have always advised my friends that they are a great buy, but I am really disappointed. It's not like there was a great distance between phone and cup (no more than an inch) and now I have a great big crack on my shiny new device. I havent even dropped it yet! And aren't they meant to have reinforced glass or something...?
Anyway, rant over, I was just wondering if anyone knows how much it would cost me to replace the screen at the Apple store? Ive tried to search the website but found nothing. Also I read that they replace it...? I don't want the phone replaced, I just want it fixed......You can get an out of warranty replacement for $199.
If you want it repaired then you will need to find a third party repair facility. -
My first post to the Apple Support Community so it looks like all I wanted to know is covered in the title. The research I have done led me to solutions that I am not comfortable trying for fear of irreparably damaging my keyboard and/or Mac mini. Does anyone have a simpler solution? Please? Hellooooo?
Just in case the title is too long to show, I have re-pasted here:
The volume keys on my Logitech K760 wireless keyboard do not work with my 2.3 GHz, Intel Core i5 Mac mini which runs Mac OS X 10.7.4. Anyone know how to correct this without having to re-code firmware?BDAqua wrote:

Thank you for the response. Unfortunately, I could not figure out how to work the above applications. I thought that i had managed to assign the appropriate function keys in Spark to their volume counterparts, but it had no effect. Below is a screen shot. Do you see anything amiss? -

I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter? -
Anyone know how to correct settings as my shortcut keys aren't working?
I'm a complete novice to In Desi
gn and just started using it this week. I have it set up on my pc as part of the Creative Suite 4. It seems to have been installed correctly, however
the default keyboard shortcuts aren't working at all. Even when I go in to change these, it won't allow me - so there seems to be an error occ
urring somewhere. Would anyone have encountered this before and know how to resovle it?
Also - when I'm typing in a text box, the return key won't work (usually hitting the return key allows you to move to the next line). Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks - I really haven't a clue what's wrong or how to fix it.Hi Paul,
Thanks for getting back to me.
I haven't installed the latest patch - I've just reinstalled the Adobe
Creative Suite 4. What do you mean by OS? - I work on Windows Vista PC.
When I hit the enter key nothing at all happens - the cursor doesn't move at
all.
None of the shortcut keys work at all. As I've only just done a training
course in In Design, I've only had 2 days of actually using it! so I don't
know many of the shortcut keys - but any that I have tried don't work e.g.
CTRL & Z, CTRL & W etc.

Hello there philp_69,
If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.

Hi Timia,
If you are using Safari as a web browser :-
Open Safari, go to Safari menu > Preferences > General, and put Google as the homepage. Then, choose Google as your default search engine.
If you are using Google Chrome as the web browser :-
Open Google Chrome.
In the top right corner of the page, click the Chrome menu Chrome menu > Settings.
In the "Search" section, select Google from the drop-down menu.
Let me know if you still experience any issue.

I get an error message when trying to sign into the support community with another Apple id. On the <pick a username> screen I get "an account utilizing this address already exists.Only one account per email address is allowed on the Apple Support Communities" despite trying a few usernames. Anyone know how I can resolve this?
This problem has been driving me demented. The instructions that Ivan gives have partially worked for me. By following his link
"How to find out if you have multiple Apple IDs" I was able to identify that yes I did have two apple accounts using the same e mail address. One was very old that I used to use for the forum boards and one is my much more recent ID that I use for everything these days. So I changed the e mail address for the old account which is associated with these discussion boards and that's the account that I am now posting this from. However even though the two accounts now have different e mail addresses when I try to log onto the boards with my more recent main apple ID I still get all the same errors as described at the start of this thread by rodgers_j. And of course that's the one I want to use so that I only have one itunes account for everything.
So if anyone has any more hints I'd be very grateful. -
When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?
You cannot merge Apple IDs but you can go to Settings > iCloud and 'Delete Account'. When prompted to turn off documents and data, choose the only option which is Delete from my iPhone, but on the other prompt for Contacts, Calendars, etc you can choose 'Keep on my iPhone' Then once the Account is Deleted form the iPhone, log back in with the correct Apple ID and choose Merge when prompted. This will merge your data from this iPhone with that iCloud account effectively putting your devices on the same account.
