Weekly View has completely vanished!

This is quite a bizarre occurrence - I can view my iCal calendars in both the Daily and the Monthly views - but whenever I choose the weekly one, the entire screen disappears. The program is still running and, if I go to the top "View" menu and choose either the Daily or Monthly versions, it pops back up again. Any thoughts?
15" Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

does that not affect everything else in iCal as well?
It affects the window sizes and preferences accessible from iCal's preference window. A new preference file is written and the preferences are set to the default when iCal is opened next. You do not need to do a reboot.

Adress Book has completely vanished...

Hey Everyone,
Apparently, Address Book is no more. On my computer at least. About a week ago it just vanished. I looked for it in spotlight, nothing.
When I search up a contact in spotlight it will come up in text edit with lots of strange symbols and such.
Can anyone help me?
I am up to date on all my software.

Is the application itself missing? Try logging into an administrative user account and launching Terminal.app (in the /Applications/Utilities folder). Copy and paste the following line of text and press the \[return] key:
sudo find / -type d -name "Address Book.app"
You will be asked to enter your admin password. Enter it. It will not be echoed back to you in the Terminal window as you type it, so type carefully. If the Address Book application still exists on your computer, that should find it. If it doesn't, according to http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=375268, if you can find your installer DVD and click on the Optional Installs package, you should be able to reinstall it. I'd do all the disk utility maintenance stuff that BDAqua has suggested, first, though, before reinstalling the application.
If it is your data that you are looking for, Tiger format is a bit different than Leopard. You are in the Tiger mail forum, forum ID 753 (as you can see from your URL field when viewing the list of threads). Leopard mail forum is forum ID 1223. What BDAqua told you to look for insofar as user's address book data (AddressBook.data.previous, etc.) was what a Tiger user would look for.
In Leopard, Address Book user data is normally stored in your user folder's Library folder's Application Support folder in a folder named AddressBook. It has an invisible file named .database.lockN, regular files named AddressBook-v22.abcddb, LastImport.plist, and MailRecents-v4.abcdmr, and two directories named Images and Metadata in it.
Those two directories have a bunch of files in them with names built out of hexadecimal characters, such as FEA814E2-E753-4904-B32F-08384B7C317C:ABPerson.abcdp or FF37638B-0969-4CD6-A20F-4FFAAAB9A3A5. The Metadata folder at least has a more consistent "ABPerson.abcdp" as the end of its filenames.
So, you could type a command similar to the above, or copy and paste it into Terminal, such as:
sudo find / -name "*ABPerson.abcdp"
or
sudo find / -name "AddressBook-v22.abcddb"
and so on.
That would give you an indication of where your data is located, if that is what is AWOL and it still exists on your hard drive.

ITunes has completely vanished from my PC!

Help please! Just turned on my PC and iTunes has disappeared off it - the Music Library is still there with all the content including recently downloaded music, but the shortcut on the toolbar to iTunes says the programme cannot be found, and the desktop icon has completely gone. It does not appear in my list of all programmes either.
Can I just reinstall iTunes, and will my music content then sync with it? And does anyone know how this could have happened?
Thanks.

I've gone through this several times in the past year or so. Weird thing was that several days might go by and then all of a sudden it's there and running normal. I can't explain why this would happen but after many times turning my computer on and off I would just get lucky and it would reappear. Very strange.

My iTunes Library has completely vanished! (in iTunes, on disk it is fine...)

I opened iTunes yesterday and my iTunes Library suddenly was empty (10,000 items missing!). As if I was using iTunes for the first time! I Checked Preferences, all OK. I Checked File Sys. (Itunes Media folder) all OK. Still, in iTunes, my library completely empty. So, to reload my iTunes Media, I selected 'Add Folder to Lib' and selected my usual iTunes Media folder (the same one specified in Advanced Preferences) to reload my missing content. The content now appears (nothing lost) but I cannot synch my 4 iPhones and iPad any longer... I get the following:
I do NOT want to erase & rebuild my iPad and iPhones from scratch! each phone & ipad having at least 10 full pages with at least 8 full sub-folders per page!
How can I hack the iTunes metadata to recognize that nothing has changed and that this (my laptop) is my one & only iTunes ibrary! (and always had been).
(PS I have backups from all iPhones & iPad in iCloud and on disk).
I need some help here please...
thanks in advance,
-Billy

What is wrong? facetime has completely vanished.

Hi, I'm desperate to solve this problem.
I have an unlocked iphone 4s, up until a week ago, i had a green facetime icon in my home screen and i was making and receiving facetime video calls perfectly. then i wake up to find the facetime icon gone (tried spotlight search, nothing) and in settings, the option for facetime settings gone. i have contacted my provider and they assured me there is no restriction whatsoever on facetime and the issue was not from their end.
i tried rebooting, erasing all content then restoring data, nothing works.
PLEASE HELP.
the phone was purchased in the middle east in 2011 and i've been using facetime since 2012 and this problem happened recently. also i have verification from batelco bahrain (my carrier) that facetime is not restricted in any way.

Unlocked or not is not the issue with FaceTime.
If there is no FaceTime in Settings and restrictions is not set in Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime then
your iPhone from the Middle East is banned from using FaceTime.
Check your iPhone model.

Ios 5 Update New Features says that iCal now has a week view for iPhone but after updating last weekend, I don't see any week view--just List, Day and Month..How do I get the week view?

ios 5 Update New Features says that calendar now has a week view but after updating my iPhone 4 last weekend, I don't see any week view for iCal--just List, Day and Month as in the past. Is the weekly view available for iCal and if so, how do I access it?

Rotate your phone to landscape.

What organizer app has a really good WEEK VIEW like my Palm Pilot - it's a grid with days across the top. Below each day- the day is divided into hourly grids. When events are schdeuled across week - you get a mosaic of time blocks. Analogue - great

I use Week Cal on the iPod. I think it was only $1.99. It is a lot better and does a lot more than the one that came with the Palm Pilot.
As you know, unlike the Palm Pilot, the iPod does not come with a desktop application that you can sync your iPod calendar to. Since I don't use Outlook, I have to use a Cloud based calendar to sync with my PC. I use Hotmail's calendar for that. (If your computer is a MAC, you can use iCal)

Hello I am having problems viewing areas of a pdf...it's a form fillable pdf that someone else has completed and saved..I'm able to view all but the areas that have been filled in.. any info would help

Hi Bob, I just tried your suggestion, but the interactive PDF is in spreads by default, no way to change the setting. When I choose to view by single page in Acrobat, it displays a single spread.
When I choose to view by spreads, it displays 4 pages, two spreads. That's the topic of this whole discussion, I believe. I do own CS 6 at home, however my employer supplied me with CS 5.5. And I have very little, if any, influence on purchasing.
So, I have no good way to make an interactive PDF (with differing recto/verso headers and footers), that is accessible and shows the correct header/footer. It's either single pages (with one header/footer), or recto/verso headers/footers but PDF only as a spread, as well as I can tell.
Unless you know something else I can do...
Best, Marilyn

Why did my calendar view suddenly change? Using iOS 7.1 and I've been using this version for a few weeks with no problem with my calendar. Now the view has changed and I can't view a list mode without seeing the month too

Why did my calendar view suddenly change in iCal? I've been using ios7 fôr a few weeks now with no problems. Suddenly, without any updates or anything, the calendar view changed and I can no longer view it as a list without having the entire month seen as well.

Hey Gattypyle,
Thanks for the question. You simply need to go back to Day/Week view, then tap the list-view icon once more.

After ios5 update, iCal week view Oct 2-8 has 2 Saturdays?

Is anyone else having problems with iCal week view on iPad after ios5 update?
Two major changes have occurred...
1. Week view used to start on Monday, now Sunday (and can't change it back).
2. If you look at the week October 2-8, 2011 there are 2 Saturdays and no Friday or following Saturday...
Any ideas? Is this a wait for ios5.1 issue?
Cheers
Chris

If you are using a Mac, go to Settings>Software Update ... check for any updates, and update all.
Chances are you are not using iTunes 10.5, which is required to sync iOS 5.
If youare using a PC, suggest you uninstall your iTunes, download fresh iTunes 10.5 from Apple.com/itunes and install it.

Beats Audio completely vanished from my HP Envy 6 1010ea

I recently updated my ultrabook and the beats audio control panel completely vanished!
It was working fine before the updates (of which were 'recommended by HP')...
I can still switch the beats function on and off using fn+b but when I go to open the beats audio control it says start up file not found....
Any help?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp56717.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load. Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.

IPad Ical Week View BUG

I just realized this problem on my iPad.
In the WEEK VIEW... the Right Arrow does not respond in either the portrait or landscape mode. when tapping the next week, the previous week is displayed. and when tapping the left arrow, the week skips one week and displays 2 weeks back.
For example if i am dispalying the week sept 5 - 11, tapping sept 12-18 will not show that week. But tapping sept 19-26 will display the sept 12th -18. Also tapping the left arrow goes back 2 weeks instead of just one.
I was on call with Apple for 2 hours and did every single trouble shooting step and they were quite suprized themselves with this problem. He said it was never heard of.
I checked it on a friend's ipad and the same bug was on it too. I am relieved that I am not the only one facing this problem.
I wonder if an update will solve this even I was asked to send the Ipad to the Service center. But now i wont coz we know its not a Hardware problem.
Wish there is a solution to this soon.
Please reply.
Cyrus Dubash

Yes i restored it as a New iPad with the Calendar completely empty. But still the same problem. Apple says I am the first to complain about this problem and they need to see the iPad.
I live in India where there Ipad is not launched and so the nearest service center is Singapore. On having checked if the same happens on another iPad, I checked it on my friends iPads and out of 4 more, 2 had the same problem as mine. So now i know it is not a problem with the hardware. and so i dont intend to send it to the service center.
I hope the next update solves this. I usually use the Week View and its disappointing that that view itself has the bug.

ESS CATS - Hide weekly view

Hi,
We are on ERP 2005, ESS BP 1.0. The ESS CATS has 2 views weekly and daily.
Is it possible to hide/disable either of them.. for example for a certain group of employees only the daily view should be shown and weekly view should be hidden/disabled. I tried controlling this with the properties in data entry profiles.
It does not work and it gives errors.
Thanks,
Mark.

Mark,
This is completely a front end thing. Not a back end configuration as far as my knowledge goes. You will have to work through the ess~cats DC and make the required modification through NWDI. I have done a decent amount of work on this DC though not specifically on ur requirement. Let me know if you require any more inputs on this

I am using OS 10.7.5. During the last week, it has started running very slow.Any ideas?, I am using OS 10.7.5. During the last week, it has started running very slow.Any ideas?

I am using Mac OS 10.7.5. During the last week, it has started running very slow. Any thoughts?

Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to:     OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
                                  The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
                                  The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
                                  The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
                                  Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
    used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
    requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
    drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.
