Unusual and annoying labels in Finder
Hi,
I am having a problem, that whenever I move my house over anything in the side bar of any Finder window, immediately, a label/tag/thing pops up over it. A couple of weeks ago, I reinstalled Lion from fresh (wiped HDD, etc) and I can't recall this happening before it. The label appears immediately, which is the annoying part - I think it used to show if you hovered over it for a few seconds.
I've attached a screenshot to show what's happening.
I hope someone can help - I know it's not the biggest problem ever - but it's driving me nuts!
Thanks,
Niall
Hi,
It would seem the problem is solved when the Finder window is resized. However, I cannot seem to find a way to make a default size of the Finder window. So, everytime I open a Finder window, it is always small enogh for the labels to appear.
All I can suggest is look for a way to make a default Finder window size

My iPhone 5s (16GB) is stuck with 3948 photos (shown on the iTunes storage bar) on and I can not find a way to delete them all! It's very annoying as it takes up 6.54 GB of space and leaves me no room to add films, music...etc on to it. Please help me!!! I have already tried the numerous articles Apple have sent my way and I am still having no luck.I'd be eternally grateful if anyone could find a solution for me as this has been a problem for almost a year. Thank you.
If they were put there via iTunes sync process, then simply untick the Music box before syncing again.

The pop up that asks if I want to save this login name and password everytime I login to a site. It is huge and annoying as hell. I just want to have an option to stop it. I know it's there, I don't need to be reminded everytime and if I wanted it to remember I would use it. Give me a break.
For anyone coming in to find this, I located my answer here:

Some apps crash out when I close their window and switch to the Finder
It has been doing this since day one. I'm a college student and bought a laptop to replace another really old mac system, to use as my main system. The issue I'm noting is that on some apps, if I close out their window and switch to the Finder, by either click on the desktop, or by command tabbing. The application seems to crash. I say 'seems' becuase I'm not certain it's crashing. It does this in Text Edit along with pages. I'm trying to find out if it's supposed to this or if it's supposed to be a new feature. There is never a crash log made that I know of, nor a dialog box stating the app crashed. However, it does this by itself, without my quiting out the app by command q nor file>quit.
This has been relatively minor and hasn't caused any large problems. To me it's an annoyance and inconviencning. Which is why I waited until summer break at school to investigate. Other classmates with older mac book pros but the same OS version have not had this problem. Wondering if I have a botched isntall of OS X from the factory. I've already had it in for service for the motherboard. The cooling system was not correctly attached to teh CPU at the factory and cooked itself.
I'm tempted to do a reload of the OS from the diagnostics partition the system came with. I haven't transferred much of anything from the previous system that this one is replacing. Now would be an ideal time to do anything of this nature rather than say in the middle of next semester.
The issue occurs in TextEdit, Pages, and that's it so far. I really have almost nothing loaded on the system. I dual boot into another OS for using Maya and other various software apps. The issue does not occur with Safari nor FireFox nor Preview. It seems confined to Pages and TextEdit. It can be extremely annoying however when typing an essay in Pages. Perhaps it's a feature that was introduced that I can turn off? Going from a 5 year old Mac Mini to a MBP, LOTS has changed.Sorry for taking so long to reply. It's still doing it. I'm kind of wondering if something like a preferences file is corrupted, however, I have to do a total system reload to begin with to eliminate any potential corrupt data on the windows 7 install.
Back story. When I first got this thing it was running super ridiculously hot. It's the first laptop I've ever owned however so I had nothign to use for reference. After about two months of it getting brutally hot, it did a BSOD in the windows 7 install I did via bootcamp. It never turned back on. Took it to the Apple store in Novi MI and they stated it somehow ran so brutally hot the CPU did a solder reflow and the whole motherboard shorted out. Even worse though, I had gotten this hot before rendering stuff in Maya and Vue. I had done burn in tests when I first received the system, it had passed, or so I thought. They couldn't even get the system to turn on at the Apple Store.
The tech at the apple store told me that one of the heat sink pins on the CPU just plan broke off and another wasn't attached correctly. Essentially the system kept overheating as I was consisently completely maxxing out the system doing CGI test renders for my junior animated short film. The cooling system was never fully connected at the factory according to the Apple Tech. I don't know how literate everyone reading this is on computer engineering but, when you overheat an IC, whether it's an ASIC or CPU, they dont' immediately crash, they corrupt data. To further complicate the mess and increase teh chances of data corruption, with the 4th gen Intel i series CPUs (which the MBP uses), they moved the northbridge directly into the CPU die. So if teh CPU is overheating, the chances of data corruption inadvertantly go up even higher. I'm suspecting that happened in the first few days of owning the system but that it was minor at that point. It can take months for the effects of corrupted data to propagate out and be visible to the user.
I would assume that they did a diagnostic test on the SSD when it was in for service, to ensure the SSD didn't overheat. The tech did state that if the drive failed the diagnostics, they would have ot replace the drive and henceforth all my data would be gone. Not really a way around it.
Currently under the windows 7 install with Maya and Vue, later iterations of the scene file, from Maya, for my animated short film, have a reproduceable glitch involving a gamma shift and camera selection. Part of the scene files seem to be corrupt and were saved that way.
Reloading the OS from the recovery partition did not fix the original problem I've been having that I initially asked for help with. I'm considering wiping out the recovery partition in addition to reinstalling windows 7 and OS X again, it would be the only way to completely eliminate the possibility of any corrupted data floating around on either partition. I don't have a way of knowing if corrupted data was written to the SSD beyond the corrupted Maya scene files. The only way I can be sure that it's 'contained' or eliminated, is if I completely wipe the drive and start from scratch. Now would be a great time rather than in the middle of working on my senior thesis for my BFA degree.
I'm wondering if you could point me to documentation showing how to wipe out all the partitions, including the recovery one. My understanding is that there is a way to do a 'net boot' or 'net recovery' over a broadband connection using Apples servers. The idea of doing a Live boot from a Ubuntu distro to run fsck is appealing but it would be pointless. The file system shoul be fine, it's the data the file system points to that I suspect is corrupted at somepoint. Unless you recommend otherwise and or formatting.
The overheating also corrupted my journal but there is no way to recover it, I overwrote the earlier file(it looks like uncompiled C++ and jibberished text) when I saved it after completing an entry. This was many months ago. Though the idea of attempting a restore with Ubuntu Remix or other recovery Linux distros is appealing I'm doubtful I'd get far, though it's an SSD not a traditional harddrive and they don't work the same.
Back to the main point though, I suspect the overheating corrupted a prefs file which is causing the glitch I'm seeing, and reloading the OS did not fix it. -

Select a song. Hit command-I (Mac) or Ctrl-I (Windows). In the pane which opens select the 'Artwork' tab. Drag an image to the space.

Really weird and annoying problem
When I double click on a waveform (I forget the name of that small window that comes up), and play back just that one audio object in that window, it acts like it has a really extreme gate on it, only letting through very loud sounds, while the rest is just quiet. This is extremely annoying because I want to edit certain parts, and I can't find out what I need to select because I can't hear anything. Suggestions?
(I forget the name of that small window that comes up)

I get the "Fast Browser Plugin not loaded" message every time I run Safari and I can't find an MTWB folder anywhere on my hard drive? This doesn't seem to be causing a problem, but is a puzzle?
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in 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.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Pages Templates - Why doesn't Apple include CD covers and CD labels?
Considering how music oriented Apple is, I'm surprised that Apple hasn't thought of including templates for CD covers and CD labels. This would be exceedingly useful to have!
iTunes itself can print a CD insert with song titles and time. Labels on CDs, in the long run, aren't a good idea. In a slot loading drive they are a disaster waiting to happen and even with a tray loading drive they can cause trouble; over time the glue dries out and the label can begin to peel. If you really want CDs and DVDs labeled, look to LightScribe or printable discs and a printer capable of printing on them. As for CD covers (and other kinds of labels) Avery has a free program that is pretty impressive. Of course, you can always go to the Avery web site and find a Word template which will open right up in Pages and you can have at it.

My phone connects intermittantly and quite often cannot find the network. Also does not reconnect automatically? Most of the time says unable to join network? My laptop and ipad seem fine? Very annoying Please help!
All the information you need is right here: http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
Notice there is no mention of WiMax.
It doesn't really matter anyway as Sprint is rolling their WiMax network down for use by MVNOs. Actual Sprint customers will not have access to WiMax at all. It was a failed experiment. -
The short version: I setup some ACL stuff (that I don't really understand) in order to share some files that previously belonged to only one user. Now I can't change the color labels in Finder.
The long version:
I share an iMac at work and recently decided to create my own account to keep my settings separate from the other person's. I tried moving our projects folder, managed fonts folder, iPhoto library, etc. into the Shared user folder, but iPhoto wasn't having it. The original account was fine with the change, but my new account was locked out. So, I found a little tutorial online (link below) about sharing the iPhoto library in the Shared user folder with some Access Control List (ACL) stuff. Anyway, I have everything running smoothly, but I can't seem to change the color labels in Finder. I control+click the folder and all the color label options are "grayed" out; I can't click on them. I was able to set a color label to a new folder, but I can't remove or change the label on an old folder.
Here's the command I used, followed by a link to the complete tutorial I used:
sudo chmod +a "UserName allow delete,chown,list,search,add_file,\
addsubdirectory,delete_child,file_inherit,directoryinherit" \
/Users/Shared/iPhoto\ Library

So.... what's going on and how do I fix it? ; )
Oh yeah, the iMac is a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo with Mac OS X 10.4.11
Message was edited by: Iynqueyou need to expand that command a little.
Try this one
*sudo chmod -R +a "staff allow list,addfile,search,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextattr, writeextattr,readsecurity,writesecurity,chown,file_inherit,directoryinherit" path/to/folder*
as before, instead of path/to/folder put the path to the folder you are doing this to. -
My brand new Envy 4-1030us model's fan is running most of the time. it is noisy and annoying.
Just bought HP Envy 4-1030us 2 days ago and i have configured my needful software. The fan seems to be running most of the time (battery or powered) and it is very noisy and annoying. I turned off the coolsense too but still noisy. Pls let me know what to do? Is it problem with the laptop. Should I return?
You can enter the BIOS and disable the "Fan Always On" setting.
I suggest leaving the coolsense on.

A movie I purchased in the iTunes store is missing. It isn't hidden and doesn't show up in search. I've followed support steps. Where is it and how do I find it? I believe I originally purchased the film on my 1st Gen AppleTV...other movies show up. Help.
It was Love Actually. It's been in my library a few years but is now missing. It's odd...it isn't even in the iTunes Store anymore. I think there is a rights issue because a message appeared in the store saying it wasn't available at this time in the U. S. store. Still, if I bought it years ago it should be in my library or I should get a refund....
