Volume changing randomly; driving me nuts

Hallo all.
What am I pressing by mistake to make the track volume shoot up and down? Is it a multitouch feature? I've experimented but i can't work it out. It's not that the volume is being altered automatically; it seems I'm inadvertently doing something when my cursor is over the track; what can it be? anyone have any ideas? It's driving me crazy!

ah. Thanks. I know this. I'm using a trackpad and I know that when I use two fingers over the volume it will change but it appears to be changing even when I'm not over the volume. Happens occasionally in Logic too.
thinking about it, I have got Better Touch Tool so that might be the problem.
But does anyone know a way to turn multitouch off in Garageband anyway?

The new tab behavior is driving me nuts. It keeps re-centering on tabs nearest the start of the list when I move a tab. How do I change this?

I don't want to download an app. I would rather add a new string in about config or just change of the ones in there to false. It's making my work life rather difficult, to be forced to go all the way back to the end of my list after moving one tab just to have to do it again. I mean it's to the point where I might consider changing browsers if they had tab scroll bars.
Edit: At this point I will download any app. Please make this stupid feature stop.

The result of setting up that code will do exactly as you described: the tabs will be crowded together. I had not noticed any change in behaviour of Firefox with tabs because all the tabs are crowded together, so they cannot scroll, and I very seldom move tabs.

Random volume changes!

Hi,
The volume on certain tracks suddenly change without automation being present on the track... I've even caught the volume changing slightly and quickly while nothing is playing. (ie. track 13 for example would quickly be jumping from -6.1 to -2.4 while nothing is playing)
Has anyone esle seen this? It seems be to a bug that i've noticed since Logic 7.2 but its still happening with v8.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks

Is it possible you've got a midi controller assigned to track volume and it's causing the issue?

Then update it to new email address. Creating a new AppleID is usually not a good thing as anything on your old account will not be transferred to your new account.
See this -> Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
and I can't remember my password or security questions, argh.
So reset them...

Restoring it will not delete it.
You need to turn it off (Settings > iCloud - Delete account then re-enable it with updated AppleID.
This is the ONLY way you can do it.

Hitting "save" is closing my documents & driving me nuts

Recently, anytime I hit "save", the document automatically closes. This happens using various programs (FTP software, Photoshop, Text-wrangler, Text-edit etc). Its driving me nuts. How can I stop this? Im using a macbook pro running 10.6.8
Ive had this computer for years and this just started happening. I dont know why. Im sure I hit a setting somewhere. Can someone help me undo this? Thanks.

I know it may sound strange but it's worth a try.
Change the ethernet cable that connect the D-Link internet port to your ISP modem.
I had a similar problem with a D-Link access point a couple of weeks ago. Intermittent WiFi connection with constant WiFi password request.
A new ethernet cable solved the issue.

Driving me nuts: Working with sRGB images for web

Good day ladies and gentlemen, I have a problem that's driving me nuts:
Basically, I want to create a graphic (a logotype) that is going to be used on a website, so I've learned that if I want to create anything for the web, I have to use the monitor color profile instead of the standard sRGB 2.1 because otherwise everything I make in PS will look completely different when opened in a browser or anywhere else, which I learned the hard way.
Now, as long as I only create original content with that kind of color settings - it works. The stuff I make in PS looks the same in a browser. However, as soon as I want to use a photo or in this case a separate graphic with the sRGB color profile - everything starts to fall apart. Everything sRGB I try to import into my non-profiled work turns bleak and with a yellowish tint.
If I change my working color profile to sRGB the photos look like they should, but then instead all my original content will still look completely wrong in a browser or any other application.
I don't believe it HAS to be this way, since there are so many websites that seem to be able to look great and have rich, good-looking photos in them at the same time. I mean, there must be a solution to this problem, no?
I'm using a MacBook Pro (Late 2008) with the 9400M/9600M GT and a Benq EW2430 external monitor over DVI. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. Photoshop CS5 with the latest update (12.0.4 I believe?)
Big thanks for any help. It would be greatly appriciated. Let me know if posting any screenshots would help solve the problem.

try this (if you want to)
first highlight the OEM default monitor profile for your monitor in Displays> Color> Display Profile
reboot (and confirm the profile is still highlighted there)
then drag this PhotoDisc tagged sRGB image to your desktop and open it in Photoshop
USE THE EMBEDDED PROFILE (or Edit> Assign Profile: sRGB to be sure)
at that point the color should look correct (exactly as it looks in Safari here - if it doesn't look exactly correct here in Safari, it is because you have a bad monitor profile)
then in Photoshop: Image> Duplicate (to see two same files side by side for a comparison)
then on one image: Edit> Assign Profile (the monitor profile you have loaded in Displays)
be sure to set the profile in the bottom left (see below) so it displays (so we can see them in your screen shot)
THEN TAKE A SCREEN SHOT of the two windows side by side and post it here
(Command+Shift+4 and drag the area you want captured)
If I understand your advice right, you suggest that when I'm creating
stuff for the web, I should always, always use sRGB as my working
space? But then on export I should just not embed the profile, correct?
sRGB is the only color you should ever post on the Internet for web viewing
always CONVERT to sRGB before saving for the web (if it is not already in the sRGB color space) ie, leave that option checked in Save For Web Devices
i think most people don't embed the profile in web images, but this was hit on succinctly above post 13:
There is no true color management on the web. As different browsers offer different types of CM support, the
best that you can do as a designer is to convert to sRGB (if not
already) and save color-critical images with the embedded sRGB profile.
That's the general rule.

Ssrs report from ssas cube , driving me nuts now...

hi folks:
This is driving me nuts and I know it's gonna be some small stupid settings. The question is pretty simple, I want to users to be able to pick up a week from date hierarchy. If I specify a static week, mdx query will run and report shows with
correct data and format.
Now, in the dataset I've created using query designer, I've dragged data hierarchy into the filter and check the parameter box and also put a default value as well. Technically, when I run this report, I am supposed to see a dropdown list with all
the available dates but I did not see any dropdownlist and report still runs with default value.
Why is this happening?
Thanks
Hui

Hi Hui,
Just as Gnanadurai said, a report auto runs when all parameters has their own default values. This scenario can also be occurred when there are no available values for the parameters. So if you want to see a drop-down list with all available dates when the
report runs, we should specify some available values for the parameter. For example, we can specify the available values come from a dataset field. Then the values in the field would be displayed in the drop-down list, we can select some of them to filter
the report.

Hope this helps.

About 5 days ago for no apparent reason at all, about
7000 songs which i have collected over a number of
years has just decided that it wont play in ITUNES or
in any other of my media players. When you click on
Play over a song nothing happens. The play icon
doesnt even come up on the screen.
Steps I have taken so far are:
1 - Remove all tracks from ITUNES and then re-add the
folder where all the songs are. This has obviously
removed all songs, but when I have re-added the
folder , it has added about 650 tracks back on to the
playlist. These 650 tracks will play. This leaves
approx 6400 tracks that it wont play.
By the way all the songs on my PC are MP3 type and I
have had no problem playing any of them until last
week.
2 - I have re-installed ITUNES and reinstalled
Quicktime and that has not worked.
3 - All of my songs are backed up on to a External
Hard Drive. I have tried to restore the songs and
also play them directly from the external hard drive.
I get the same problem when I do this.
4 - I have enabled and allowed all permissions for
the account that I am running the PC from.
I am guessing there must be some settnig or Registry
Key that is blocking me playing the tracks from the
PC. I have also tried to launch the songs in Media
Player and Sonic stage but thsi has not played
either.
All the tracks are in the folder structure as they
were before so I know they are there. I just need to
somehow unlock them.......
If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful as
I dont want to lose my entire music collection.
Also I cannot find anyweher on here that is a Support
number or email address for Apple as this is an
ITUNES issue and they should be resolving it for
me!!!!
Thanks

Main "Play Control" volume changes on its own when I open and close WinDVD or Winfast

Main "Play Control" volume changes on its own when I open these programs, and when they're closed the main volume resets to where it was before the program was opened.
Surely I'm not the only one who has had this problem before.. I've had the problem with both Creative soundcards I've owned, before and after different drivers installations.
It can be very irritating and can potentially lead to damaged speakers if I'm not paying close attention to what my various volume knobs are set at before and after I open these programs.
I appreciate any and all input, thankyou.

So in the last few days I’ve noticed that pressing my volume change keys actually isn’t changing the volume on my macbook pro at all. When I press the volume up or down keys, it makes the recognisable pop sound but stays at the same volume while the squares go up or down. I mute it but my computer still makes sound. It’s the same with the volume control up the top of the screen, too. I slide it up and down and it doesn’t change the volume at all. The only way I can change the volume is with my speakers or the program I’m in (iTunes, VLC etc). I restarted and it seems to be okay then I go to change it a couple minutes later and it’s back to not working again.
I’ve checked my settings- the “use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard fuction keys” is not switched on, and I have tried a suggestion of moving the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file out of the library and onto the desktop and restarting and neither of those seem to make any difference whatsoever. I’ve tried to find online forums but the only suggestions I found were those two and they didn’t work.
I’m just annoyed because I usually have the worst luck with technology but my macbook had been going strong and I got it because of the apparent lack of things that could go wrong, but of course even if there is one thing that could go wrong it will happen to me.
Please help!

Apple does not repair devices beyond replacing the screen on some models or a battery replacement. They replace the ENTIRE device.
For the Out of Warranty replacement cost, you could have gotten a fully functional replacement device. Instead you chose to spend less to get only the screen replaced and continue to live with additional issues.
Apple will not touch the device now. They will know that it was opened elsewhere and that the replacement screen is not original.

"Server either does not have a virtual switch configured or none of the configured virtual switches have an IP address assigned" error driving me nuts!

OK; have been trying to setup a test VM based RDS deployment for a few days now with no luck.
this error mentioned above:
"Server <server name> either does not have a virtual switch configured or none of the configured virtual switches have an IP address assigned" error is driving me nuts!
I have removed and re-added the RD Virtualization Host role numerous times, each time having the "create a virtual switch" checkbox selected, but it did NOT create any virtual switch.
I created the external virtual switch manually and tried to create the desktop collection again, no luck with the same error.
a few questions:
1. you don't assign IP to a switch! you assign IP to Network Interfaces. why does the error puts it like this?! it is technically wrong.(yeah yeah I know all about how you'd assign IP to managed switches in real world to telnet into them and manage them.
you know better than me that it is not the case here!)
2.the RDS Virtualization hosts are using their wifi card as the card for the virtual switch. could that be the reason? I even disabled their unplugged wired NIC just to make sure that the wifi is the only available option for the RDS wizard to use for the
virtual switch creation; but it didn't use it and it didn't create any virtual switch automatically.
3.if WIFI nic is indeed the reason, is it your suspension or an official documents is there somewhere stating so (that the WIFI NICS on a Virtualization hosts are not supported as the hub for a virtual switch).
4.what are the properties of the virtual switch the RDS requires? does it have to be external? why can't it work even with my manually created external switch?
5.how would I fix it?
P.S: the environment is made up of 2 laptops, having windows 2012 R2 trial installed on them, using their wifi to connect to the out world. no cable is plugged into their wired NIC card.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
The simplest short term solution was to connect each computer to a small switch that had no other connectivity. This brought up the link light on the external NIC and allowed the creation of the collection to complete. You need to use an external switch. You
can create one external switch which might fix the problem.
Please check below article for information.
