Visual static or noise in Coverflow windows and Quicktime quick look icons

I am seeing visual static in the finder cover flow window, and with mp4 quick look icons in the cover flow window. I am guessing that their is corruption in a persistent desktop or finder database or cache. Is there any way to fix this?
Regards,
Mike

The only 'cache cleaning' software that i have is an old Aladdin Spring Cleaning app. But I rarely use it nowadays.

  • There was a "new window" and a "new tab" icon that could be dragged from the Customize window to the toolbar. In 7 & 8 there is still a "new window" icon but there is no new tab icon to be found in Customize. Where can I add a "new tab" to the toolbar?

    '''bold text''' This feature was there prior to Firefox 7 but now it can't be found.

    You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.<br />
    You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.<br />
    If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window.<br />
    If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

  • Quick Look icon doesn't appear in Finder window?

    I've just installed Leopard, and have just read in the manual about Quick Look. Quick Look shows up in the drop-down File menu if I highlight a file or document, but it doesn't show up where it's supposed to in the Finder window, as an eyeball icon. I'm sure there's some obvious fix: can anyone explain what I have to do to get the icon to show up in Finder?
    Much obliged.
    jk

    the easiest way to quicklook a file is select the file and hit the space bar. but if you want to call it from the toolbar the icon should be tere too. if it isn't, go to view menu->customize toolbar and drag the "eye" icon to the toolbar.

  • Will a Microsoft Office Add-In developed in Visual Studio work for both a Windows and Mac ( osx ) versions of Ms Office?

    I want to develop a Microsoft Office Word Add-In for Mac Users. I would like to know if we create it using Visual Studios in windows will it be compatible with the Mac version of office or is there a whole another way to develop for Mac?
    Please provide links so that I could follow some guidelines. The http://msdn.microsoft.com/site

    Thank You very Much in Advance.

    Office:Mac 2011 only supports add-ins that were developed in VBA. Office:Mac 2008 does not support add-ins at all. A
    new version of Office:Mac is slated for release in 2015, there have been no announcements as of this writing (December 2014) whether Microsoft will support additional methods of developing add-ins in the new version of Office:Mac.

  • Can I take my home DVD's and add to itunes via windows and Quicktime pro?

    I use my iphone for watching video (train commuter) and have been playing with different software to add my movies/TV dvd's to itunes. I can't find one I really like and I thought I read that I could do this via Quicktime pro, but I also thought that this feature is only avail on the Mac OS version. Can anyone confirm that it will or will not work for me? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Converting "copyright" protected video can't be discussed in these Discussions.
    The Windows version of QuickTime allows the same export features found in the Mac version.

  • How do I get rid of iOS7 and get back to 6 which didn't crash, lock up, have a time delay on pressing buttons and have childish looking icon? iOS7 is shockingly bad and a disgrace that Apple have released it with so many problems.

    As title. iOS7 is frustrating me to the point of switching to Android pretty soon if it is not fixed PROPERLY

    It is unfortunate that you do not like iOS7,
    but downgrading firmware is not supported by apple.

    Posting to YouTube and providing a URL link might be the most universal method of playback although quality may be on the weak side.
    if i can't do that, then i'd like to have 2 links - one for quicktime and one to the .wmv. in this case, how to i export a .wmv file?
    WMV is a proprietary compression format. You will either have to purchase the authorized QT components from Flip4Mac or purchase a separate open source converter application like Visual Hub.
    i don't see that option anywhere on the share menu?
    Any you won't even if you purchase and install the QT component -- iMovie '08 only exports to QT compression formats.
    do i need to buy quicktime pro?
    It wouldn't help. Getting QT Pro only unlocks editing and conversion features. It does not add any additional codecs which don't already have installed.
    if i have imovie, do i need quicktime pro? so far i'm having a hard time figuring out what quicktime pro has that imovie doesn't.
    As indicated above, QT Pro allows you to convert to/from any compression formats for which you have working import/export QT components. This can already be be done using GarageBand and iMovie. GarageBand allows you to access any installed QT import/export component while iMovie '08 restricts you to Apple QT components. In addition, QT Pro allows you to create player displays with multiple audio/video tracks, gives you ability to layer graphic elements (e.g, create watermarks, create pictures-within-pictures, etc,), allow the viewer to switch between alternate audio and/or video tracks, and may other things.
    ADDED: If you really want to see what QT Pro can do, check out QTKirk's examples on his DotMac account.

  • Can't customize Finder toolbar, and where's Quick Look?

    Hi, all. I'm (of course) hoping for some easy answers here. I recently got a refurb iMac 24"--a beautiful thing, like new. (Used Migration Assistant to bring over old iMac docs and settings.) Since using this new iMac and Leopard, I have yet to see the Quick Look "eye" icon anywhere. Highlighting a doc and hitting spacebar brings up Quick Look (yay!), but there's no option for Quick Look in my Finder menu: no "eye" icon. And under Finder's View menu, most of the options are grayed-out: I can't select "as Icons," "as List," "as Columns," "as Cover Flow"; or "Show Path Bar" or "Hide Status Bar"; or "Hide Toolbar" or "Customize Toolbar." What's up with this?
    I did an archive and install this morning to see whether it would give me fresh access to Leopard, but no change. (Hoping not to have to erase and install, since I have Time Machine and Time Capsule playing well together and don't want to mess with their relationship...)
    Any insight anyone?
    Thanks in advance!

    If you Ctl+CLick on an empty area of a Finder window tool bar, do you get the Customize Toolbar option? Is the Quick Look icon there to add? If you remove and then re-add the grayed-out icons, do they become active?

  • How to add a scroll bar within a view window ?I want to display x and y axis outside the scoll window and keep those axis static and move the graph within scroll area

    how to add a scroll bar within a view window ?I want to display x and y axis outside the scoll window and keep those axis static and move the graph within scroll area
    ananya

    Hey Ananya,
    I believe what you want to do is possible, but it will not be
    easy.  If you want to add a scroll bar that will scroll the graph
    back and forth but keep the axis set, you would want to add a
    horizontal or vertical scrollbar.  Then you would create an event
    handler for the scroll event.  You would have to manually plot
    different data within this scroll event.  Unfortunately, there is
    not really a built in way to do this with the Measurement Studio plot
    control.

  • My iPod touch 4g is making a static noise in the speaker and in headphones help!!!!!!

    It makes this loud static/cracking noise out of the speaker whenever I try to play music or a video . It also does this out of the headphone jack to I know this because I have a brand new pair of beats by dre solo hds and there's still static in the bit when I tried it on a different device the headphones worked perfectly fine.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPhone 3G Static noise due to RF and EM emission and heard at nearby Active

    Whenever im using iphone, playing music or talking then there is this huge emission that is captured by any nearby speakers within two feet.
    This is actually so bad that i can not even listen to music connected to any speakers because the static ads up the the music, this is very frustrating, I might have to return to apple for another one if this is perticular to my iphone.
    My guess is that the iphone is loaded with tons of RF / EM emission not properly shielded or design flaw.
    Genius, wher art thou

    Same thing happened to me on a recording session a month ago, Logic 8 and the Apogee Duet.
    Thing is I heard this static type noise, it was kind of low, at the time I thought it was just noise on output / playback.
    It never occurred to me that this static noise was being recorded.
    I don't remember the iPhone being that close, but it was in the vicinity.
    Mackie HR 824's are shielded heavily (and would only apply to output playback, not the input), but the Apogee Duet or input cables, I'll bet are not, and the noise got into the Apogee Duet, and it was recorded
    Thing is I recognized the static sound right away, as the awful static of the iPhone, when I later played back the recording.
    Are you guys saying this does not occur when setting it to 3G, I am going to test that.

  • Static crackling noise, Right speaker when audio is being played

    I recently purchased this Satellite C50D-A Windows 8 Laptop. I have had it for less than 3 months. Recently the right speaker has started acting up with some sort of high pitched static crackling noise whenever audio is played regardless of it being in a web browser or any other media. Even computer sounds are distorted from this. I typically use this computer for school and play music to study. How the hell can I fix this so I can actually listen to audio without this rather irritating issue? 

    I tried that and it didnt seem to do much of anything.
    I played part of a song on spotify and recorded it to perhaps give you an example of what it sounds like?
    I covered the left speaker so most of what you hear is the right speaker alone. The distortion is pretty clear when audio comes out of that speaker.

  • GT70 2PE Dominator Pro increasing static/white noise during different games.

    Hello.
    I'm quite in a predicament here. I have an MSI GT70 2PE Dominator gaming laptop.
    Every time I play a game[doesnt matter which one, ones demanding high specs and also with games that can run on toasters :p ] after a couple of minutes I start hearing this increasing static, white noise coming from my speakers or headset. After a couple of moments it also sort of disables my microphone as well. IE When in in VoiP while playing a game, after the noise increases my mic also stops working.
    I tried everything I could think of. Reinstall drives, format the laptop, all the little advice people give in other threads about this kind of problem. I also sent it into repairs and they said it was fixed but alas it still isnt. I tried using different power adapters and that doesnt seem to make a difference.
    One interesting thing is that when I just play on batter power - no issues at all. As soon as I plug in the adapter - the noise start building up again.
    Anyone has any ideas what might help?

    I have the same laptop and also have the same problem.
    I have not been able to find a solution for it. I think it might be a voltage or heat problem.
    I ended up buying a pair of USB headphones so i could have sound while playing video games. I would recommend you do the same.

  • Why CreateNewFrame() returns as NULL after successful created 136 child frame window and trying to create 137th child frame window in MDI application

    I am working on MDI application which was developed in VC++ in VS 2012. When my application is launched, it will display a Tree. Under a tree there are 254 nodes. Basically
    these nodes data are read from Configuration xml file and loaded into the Tree. By double clicking on each node, first it will create object for document class ( By calling CreateNewDocument() method) after that member variables for that
    document class will be initialized and then it will create the new frame window (by calling
    CreateNewFrame(pDoc,NULL). New child frame window will show under Main window to the user.
    User able to see the data from child frame window.
    Similarly by double clicking on each node it will create another object for the same document class and new child frame window will be opened for that node. Each child frame window runs
    in different data and showed under the Main window.
    Existing requirement by double clicking on each node, node data shall show in separate child window and there is no requirement for all 254 child windows opened simultaneously.
    But current requirement is , all 254 child windows shall open simultaneously by double clicking on each node one by one.
    In debug mode I have tried double clicking on each node. I able to open up to 50 nodes. After 50th child windows are opened, I unable to access to the application
    (Unable to open further node data window since application is getting hanged).
    Each child window is having tree, multiple splitter window and some additional controls (static text, ...).
    Same I have tried in release mode, I able to open up to 136 child windows. After that the application fail to create the new frame window in VS 2012. i.e CreateNewFrame() return
    NULL after successful created 136 child frame window. Debug purpose I have added the code to retrieve last error code by calling GetLastError() method. I got the value as "0". By closing any existing child window then I able to open remaining nodes.
    At any point of time I can reach maximum of 136 child frame window that can be opened under Main window. Failing to open all 254 child frame window
    simultaneously,  currently I fail to meet the current requirement.
    current Requirement is all 254 child frame window are opened simultaneously. Please let me know what may be the reason fail to create new frame window after 136 frame window that are
    opened already. In Microsoft site, mentioned that there is no limitation for creating frame  window in MDI application. I have tried another sample MDI application having limited number of controls, in which I able to create "n"
    number of child frame windows. why not able to create more than 136 child frame window in my actual application?
    Is there any possibility by changing project settings allow me to create 254 child frame window??
    Code Snippet as below:
    CDiagBaseDoc * CDiagBaseMDocTemplate::OpenDiagView( ...)
         CDiagBaseDoc* pDoc = NULL;
        if (pDoc == NULL)
            pDoc = (CDiagBaseDoc*)CreateNewDocument();
        if ( pDoc )
           CFrameWnd* pFrame = NULL;
           if (bAlreadyOpen)
                  // If Child frame window already opened, then handling the code here.
         else
               pFrame = CreateNewFrame(pDoc, NULL);
               if (pFrame == NULL)
                  ASSERT(FALSE);
                  delete pDoc;       // explicit delete on error
                 pDoc = NULL;
              ASSERT_VALID(pFrame);
              if( pDoc != NULL ) //VS2012
                 if ( !pDoc->OnNewDocument() )
                    TRACE0("CDocument::OnNewDocument returned FALSE\n");
                    delete pDoc;       // explicit delete on error
                    pDoc = NULL;
                    pFrame->DestroyWindow();
                     pFrame = NULL;
           if (pFrame)
               InitialUpdateFrame(pFrame, pDoc);
               ShowWindow( pFrame->GetSafeHwnd(), SW_MAXIMIZE ); //when opening node for the 1st time, maximize it

    Hi MuruganK,
    Have you checked how much memory your application used? You could check it by Task Manager. Maybe your application reach Memory Limits for Windows.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa366778%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
    Is it possible that there are some memory leaks in your application? It would better if you have made a simple sample to reproduce and narrow down this issue.
