What's missing? Magic mouse user definable gestures?

So with the magic mouse why can't they simply allow the user to record the gesture and map that to the action?

Well I downloaded the leopard wireless mouse software update --- again. this time the preferences for the keyboard and mouse are separate. opened the mouse pref. and clicked to set up blue tooth mouse. BUT the next window states "no mouse" found! clicked continue searching, Then "found apple wireless mouse" then continue, "no mouse found" and "The pairing attempt was unsuccessful" . clicked continue and the circle starts again. put in new batteries and switched mouse on/off etc.
The blue tooth pref panel shows the mouse is connected and paired. But now it's worse because before I could control the cursor and left/right click, now it does nothing. The computer only works with the wired mouse. What Crap!! not at all "Mac Like"

  • Magic Mouse User Feedback/Suggestion Box

    The Magic Mouse has great esthetic appeal, the touch to scroll is employed well, the swipes will take some getting used to as it is a natural movement (at least to me). The biggest shortfall I see is the inability to assign the functions, as well as the loss of the third and fourth buttons (scroll button click, and squeeze button)
    The scroll button would be easy to employ as a virtual button with a two fingered click. Clearly the device can sense the difference between one and two fingers and the motion of clicking with two fingers seems incredibly intuitive to me.
    One could also conceive of having two fingered scrolling mean something different than one fingered scrolling, think Application switching, Spaces, screen zoom.
    The problem with the swipe motion is you have to stop the mouse from moving side to side as you hold it, making the motion somewhat unnatural. Interestingly though pinching/spreading on the mouse would work very well, since the opposite movement of each finger keeps the mouse still and does not require you to hold the sides. So pinch/expand zooming would be a natural one too.
    Two finger Rotate seems hard since again the issue of the mouse moving comes up
    Apple, throw in a two finger click assignable to expose, spaces, or user choice please. Pinch Zoom too please

    In addition to all those I'd really love two finger slide up gesture to go up a folder level, or customizable to show topsites in Safari maybe. Slide down gesture to open a folder or file.
    There are a lot of cool gestures. If Apple could create a 'watch me' method to create our one it would defeat the need for 3rd party software which could complicate the proper navigation functions. Even if most were disabled by default it gives advanced users a chance to take advantage of it's multitouch surface, which currently barely scratches the surface.

  • Has Magic Mouse as many gestures as the Trackpad?

    I have just read a comment from a well-known contributor to the Apple Support Community Forums stating that a Magic Mouse provides all the gestures of a trackpad.
    Is this correct and if so, could someone please give me a list of these gestures (or point me to where I can find out)?

    Hello Ian:
    This is pretty generic.  It implies similarity, but does not state that.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11377
    I have the information when my mouse is attached (in system preferences), but I rarely use it since I bought my MacBook Pro.
    My "memory" indicates the gestures are the same, but that is not definitive.

  • What is the purpose of User-Defined Functions under Excel Service Application?

    Hello, I have done a lot of research and have concluded that we cannot use VBA present under Excel sheet code in sharepoint.
    Today I was reading on excel services in sharepoint. I came across User-defined functions under Excel Service Application settings. I believe that User defined functions refer to the Calculations and VBA (am I wrong on this?).
    If true, then, does this bring hope that we can use embedded VBA code present into excel sheet in SharePoint also?

    Hi Nachiket,
    When you set  ‘Allow External Data’ to None, it disables all external data connections for the trusted file location.
    When you set  ‘Allow External Data’ to ‘Trusted data connection libraries and embedded’, it enables connections that are embedded in the workbook file or connections that are stored in a trusted data connection library.
    More information, please refer to the link:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219699.aspx
    As your description, when you tried to set Allow External Data to None, the external data also was displayed, it may be caused by data cache or time delay.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Missing magic mouse software sought- do you know where it could be?

    I purchased a new iMac with 27" inch screen over the weekend at my local Mac store. In the store you could set the mouse so that a tap and doubletap on the mouse surface would work to click and doubleclick the mouse.
    Not so on my mouse! Options to activate tap to click are nowhere to be found under system preferences> mouse!
    Could the Apple demo machines be using third party software? Is my system software install somehow deficient? I have checked for latest updates with software update and talked with Apple Tech Support without success. Using OS 10.6.2. Thanks for ideas...

    Thank you for your comments Barry.
    "Could the Apple demo machines be using third party software?"
    The Apple Store iMac demoed to me by an Apple store employee had third party software. That was not a good idea!- without his identifying that the software being demoed, by all appearances a part of the Mac OS, was not a part of the deal.
    So I will have to buy additional software to enable my new iMac to do what I thought it would be able to do, based on my visit and consequent purchase at the Apple Store. This is not good.
    Apparently the software is called mouse wizard and is found at www.samuco.net
    At least I do not have to take my new iMac in for repairs!
    Best regards, thought you might be interested in my findings,

  • Missing user-defined fields (project definition) in project inform. system

    Dear PS friends,
    I have extended the CI_PROJ structure with some user-defined fields.
    I have started report RCNCT001 (to analyze these new fields in the project information system). The include RCNPROJR was generated and contains the new fields (table XXL_DATA). Include RCNSOM00 was generated too. This is described in note 43493.
    But Iu2019m still missing the new user-defined fields in the dynamic selection of reports (e.g. CN40).
    What else I have to do? We use SAP_APPL : SAPKH60009
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    have you used user defined field or custom field via exit CNEX......
    User defined fields are activated by configuration using field key
    If you added custom fields then check out OSS note 188663 on how to create a CUS view for dynamic selection.

  • Types of batteries compatible with Magic Mouse

    Hi There,
    Recently I bought a magic mouse, and till now it has been amazing. But as all users, I too face serious battery drain issue with magic mouse, but I think its worth its usage .
    So I thought to switch to couple of rechargeable batteries for my magic mouse after reading some threads here. But now I have got a doubt. I read the magic mouse user guide and it says :
    +You can use alkaline, lithium, or rechargeable AA batteries in your mouse.+
    So My doubt is that whether I can use rechargeable Nickel Cadmium(Ni-Cd) batteries or not? Also what all kind of batteries are compatible with magic mouse?
    Message was edited by: zulficarr

    Hi zulficarr
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you have Nickel Cadmium(Ni-Cd) batteries they will work just fine, however if you shopping for rechargeable's the NiMH batteries are better and last longer.
    http://www.maxellcanada.com/battery/nimh/NiMHvsNiCd.htm
    Also note that the Apple Store sells a Battery Charger with 6 NiMH batteries.

  • Why can't I scroll / Multi-touch with my new Magic Mouse?

    I just got my first magic mouse and paired it with my 2008 model white macbook. It works as a mouse, but none of the multi-touch functionality is working. Here's the details
    - I updated to lion recently, and i want to take advantage of the gesture technology. but my macbook is *PRE MULTI-TOUCH* so the track pad does none of those cool tricks.  I thought that using the magic mouse I could use all those nifty features....
    - I read on another forum that people were having trouble with USB OverdriveX, which I've used for a while.  I removed the software with AppCleaner, which is supposed to clean out the plists and everything, and I restarted, but nothing's changed.
    - I downloaded MagicPrefs, and although it shows me the magic mouse details screen, messing with the settings doesn't change anything, i still can't even scroll. Also i set the menu icon to show me the remaining battery life of my device, and instead of that it is grayed out. Does this mean it doesn't recognize my mouse?
    - Finally, and this is what's most frustrating me: Everywhere I look I see the magic mouse preferance pane and it looks NOTHING like mine.  I don't have a 'magic mouse' preference pane in my system preferences, and when i click on 'mouse' all i get is this:
    I haven't come across anyone else with this problem, and I get the feeling that this might once again be a failure of my aging machine.  But every other element of mac software is running, and the mouse recognizes movement, left click, and right click.  Any advice would be helpful, thanks!

    I can't be sure it hasn't gotten mucked up with all those other steps you took, but here's what I know.
    The Magic Mouse has some gestures, yes, but not all those found in a multi-touch trackpad. You can get a Magic Trackpad for that if you really want it all to work just the same.
    However, to fix your issue, try uninstalling third-party mouse drivers (such as Logitech or Microsoft), USB Overdrive, BetterTouchTool, Jitouch, and/or drivers for other input-managing devices. Not getting the Magic Mouse preferences is usually the result of some third-party driver getting in the way. AppCleaner is a good way to do this, but you might want to search google for instructions specific to whatever drivers you may have installed and now want to remove.
    Once you think you've got them all cleaned out, open bluetooth preferences and remove your Magic Mouse. Now re-add it and see if you get the Magic Mouse preferences screens that you've been seeing online.
    Hopefully this has fixed it.
    If so, I will add that I have greatly expanded my Magic Mouse capabilities with Better Touch Tool and never had the kinds of issues you're having now. If you do get the Magic Mouse set up correctly, do not fear to install Better Touch Tool after the fact. I know from experience it will not cause such havoc!

  • MBP, Magic Mouse, and desk pads

    I have a large steel desk at work, and aside from being a big uncomfortable, it's also tough to use a Magic Mouse on: lots of scraping sounds and even a scratch or two on the desk now and then. I was going to pick up a simple, small mouse pad, until I realized I could also use something to keep the bottom of my MacBook Pro from being scratched too.
    I've found a few products, such as the XTRAC PADS Ripper XXL Mouse Pad:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826991001
    I wonder whether any other Magic Mouse users are familiar with larger pads like this and can relay their experience?

    So, the Ripper XXL pad is huge, and pretty much what you'd expect: a big ol' mouse pad. It does the job, though I wish the surface were quieter and actually a bit less mouse-pad-like, in that it's a bit fuzzy (like a mouse pad) and the Magic Mouse does make some scraping noise as it glides across. So there's probably something better out there; I just don't know what that something is. Meanwhile, the Ripper XXL pad is fine.

  • Selecting Columns with User Defined Types... in PHP

    I've looked all over google and this forum and can't find anything about this... here's what I've got:
    a User Defined Type:
    CREATE TYPE "ADDRESS" AS OBJECT (
    ADDRESS VARCHAR2(256),
    COUNTRY VARCHAR2(256),
    STATE VARCHAR2(256),
    SUBURB VARCHAR2(256),
    TOWNCITY VARCHAR2(256)
    and it is used in a column in one of my tables:
    CREATE TABLE "SUPPLIERS" (
    "ID" NUMBER,
    "USER_ID" NUMBER,
    "NAME" VARCHAR2(50),
    "ADDRESS" "ADDRESS"
    so that column "address" is of type "address". I am then able to insert a row using:
    INSERT INTO "SUPPLIERS" VALUES(1,1,'name',ADDRESS('address','country','state','suburb','town city'));
    and that all works as expected. I can select the data using iSqlPlus and get the result I expect;
    ADDRESS('address', 'country', 'state', 'suburb', 'town city')
    So here's the problem. I cannot reterieve the data as expected, using PHP. If I make a select statement on the table that excludes the ADDRESS column I get the results as expected. If the ADDRESS column is included I get an error when fetching the row:
    ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected CHAR got ADT
    I'm assuming this is because the the cell cannot be cast to a string. How can I select the row so that the ADDRESS column is returned as an object? Can I even? If I can't, I don't see the use of Object Data Types... :(
    I have found that I can select a field of the type using:
    SELECT t.ADDRESS.TOWNCITY FROM SUPPLIERS t;
    But this is not ideal, because the whole idea was that I could (potentially) change the format for, in my example, an address, and not need to alter my SQL statements.
    Any ideas??

    PHP OCI8 can currently only bind simple types. Here are two possible
    solutions.
    -- cj
    create or replace type mytype as object (myid number, mydata varchar2(20));
    show errors
    create or replace type mytabletype as table of mytype;
    show errors
    create or replace procedure mycreatedata1(outdata out mytabletype) as
    begin
      outdata := mytabletype();
      for i in 1..10 loop
        outdata.extend;
        outdata(i) := mytype(i, 'some name'||i);
      end loop;
    end;
    show errors
    -- Turn the data into a ref cursor (but PHP OCI8 doesn't use prefetching for ref cursors)
    create or replace procedure mywrapper1(rcemp out sys_refcursor) as
    data mytabletype;
    begin
      mycreatedata1(data);
      open rcemp for select * from table(cast(data as mytabletype));
    end mywrapper1;
    show errors
    -- Turn the data into two collections
    -- This might be faster than returning a ref cursor because you can
    -- use oci_bind_array_by_name() on each parameter.
    create or replace procedure mywrapper2(pempno out dbms_sql.NUMBER_table, pename out dbms_sql.VARCHAR2_table) as
    data mytabletype;
    begin
      mycreatedata1(data);
      select myid, mydata
      bulk collect into pempno, pename
      from table(cast(data as mytabletype));
    end mywrapper2;
    show errorsThen in PHP you could do:
    // Use a Ref Cursor
    $s = oci_parse($c, "begin mywrapper1(:myid); end;");
    $rc = oci_new_cursor($c);
    oci_bind_by_name($s, ':myid', $rc, -1, OCI_B_CURSOR);
    oci_execute($s);
    oci_execute($rc);
    oci_fetch_all($rc, $res);
    var_dump($res);
    // Use Collections
    $s = oci_parse($c, "begin mywrapper2(:myid, :mydata); end;");
    oci_bind_array_by_name($s, ":myid", $myid, 10, -1, SQLT_INT);
    oci_bind_array_by_name($s, ":mydata", $mydata, 10, 20, SQLT_CHR);

    Hi Jigar,
    when you have selected a project and a subproject your first screen
    will be the personal menu of the LSMW. You will find here a step-by-step-wizard
    which you have to execute in sequence. If a step is executed the cursor is automatically positioned on the next step.
    Choose 'Maintain field mapping and conversion rules'.
    If the mapping is displayed set the cursor on the field you want to edit.
    Press the button 'Rule' on the button bar above the mapping.
    You will get a Popup where you can select 'User-defined routine (reusable)' (that is the last radio button).

  • User defined fields in Resource object; Resource object form

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me what is the purpose of having user defined fields for resource object and resource object form and how can we use those fields while requesting for target resource.
    Regards,
    Alabhya Goel

    Thanks for your reply!!!!!!!!!!
    I know about resource object form i am just asking what is the use of user define field in resource object form. How can we use it. Like when we create any user defined field in under User form those fields display on create user form but when we create any user defined field in resource object from those are not displayed in form.
    If anyone has used or worked on user defined fields in Resource Object or resource object form; please give me an overview over the same.

  • Dynamic script - User defined dimension

    Hi
    I have the following problem.
    When i create a task in the data manager, and i want the user to select some menbers of the dimensions to be used in the script logic, for example, if i want him to select the time all i do is a PROMPT tag with the %TIME_DIM% variable.
    What if i want a user defined dimention, lets say product for instance.
    If i use the variable %DIMS% i get the product dimension and all others, but i want only the PRODUCT dimension.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi Leandro,
    You can try something like below:
    PROMPT(SELECTINPUT,%SELECTION%,,"Select the members to CLEAR",%DIMS%)
    You can replace the above statement by
    PROMPT(SELECTINPUT,%SELECTION%,,"Select the members to CLEAR",CATEGORY)
    In the above statement, CATEGORY is just the name of the dimension. You can try similarly with other dimensions too.
    Hope this helps.
