Where is universal access  it has dissappeared from System Preferences

I'm using an IPAD with IMac OS 10.8

Any chance you can help: trying to disable the "hover" feature on my macbok. Trackpad. It's annoying, and I'm looking all over preferences to try and disable. I know it's simple, but too tough to find for me!

  • Bluetooth vanished from system preferences

    Today my system seems to have forgotten that it has bluetooth hardware.  The OS doesn't see it.  In fact, the bluetooth panel has vanished from system preferences.
    So far I've...
    reset the PRAM
    reset the SMC
    tried to delete com.apple.bluetooth.??? (but it wasn't there)
    deleted com.apple.preferencepane.cache
    No luck - stil no BT.
    What should I try next?
    system:  2010 mbp 15" i7 2.66 with hi-res anti-glare, running 10.8.2
    Thanks a lot for your wisdom...

    Has the black barrel by the hinge of the LCD been damaged or exposed to liquid recently?
    Bluetooth is not intergrated, just a chip swap.  Sadly, its in barrel

  • HT4743 The TV Shows icon has dissappeared from my Apple TV, so I have no access to my purchsed shows. How do I get it back?

    I just noticed today that my TV shows icon has dissappeared from the Apple TV screen. I do not have aceess to my purchased content, unless I use my iPad and Airplay, which I do not want to do all the time.
    I have restored all settings and dowloaded all software updates.
    Is there s remedy to correct this?
    Thanks,

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There appears to be a large increase in this type of problem at this time, it seems that that there is a problem at Apple's end, but I couldn't at all be sure.
    There are no issues being reported at Apple’s System Status page, but this status may yet be updated and it may be you need to try again a little later.
    This isn't affecting me here in the UK, where exactly are you.
    So far I have noted users in the following locations having similar problems:
    USA
    If this is a problem at Apple’s end, it rarely happens, however when it does only Apple can fix it. When this has occurred previously it has usually been resolved in a few hours or slightly more.

  • Personal hotspot has dissappeared from setting, I tried resetting my network setting but that didn't fix the problem

    Personal hotspot has dissappeared from setting, I tried resetting my network setting but that didn't fix the problem 

    Have you tried to erase your drive and reinstall the OS - you should use recoery (hold Command + R keys while restarting). Since the items in the menu bar are part of the system, a clean reinstall of the system should take care of it.
    As it is dangerous to post private information in a public forum, I will ask the hosts to remove it.
    FWIW, we are all other users here - you are not addressing Apple.

  • Can't modify Mavericks iCloud settings from System Preferences or connect Mail to iCloud

    I tried Keychain for the first time the other day, went away for the weekend and forgot my master password #*#@$!
    In the process of trying a few different fixes I've changed my Apple ID password.  Most things are working well.
    I can log in to iCloud via a browser using my Apple ID & new password.  I can also log in to itunes using the new password.
    When I select iCloud from System Preferences and purposefully enter a wrong password, it tells me 'Incorrect password' in red font.  But when I enter the correct password, it is not rejected but the 'Enter Password' option remains on display and all the iCloud options/checkboxes remain greyed out.  
    In Mail, there is an error symbol against the iCloud inbox.  When I click on the error/circle symbol I am told 'Mail can't connect to the iCloud account "iCloud" ' and am requested to enter the password, which I do but with no effect. 
    Contacts has a similar problem and displays an error circle next to the iCloud account list, as does Calendar.
    Any ideas out there?  Please help me!!  
    Is there any way to use Time Machine to revert to earlier settings?

    If you are running Mt. Lion download and apply the OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.2 (Combo).  It includes the iCloud preference pane for the System preferences. 
    If you're running Lion then download and apply the OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo) as it also includes the iCloud preference pane.

  • Can't load Network Settings from System Preferences

    For some reason I can't load Network Settings from System Preferences anymore - it just stalls with the bar showing "Loading Network" and doing nothing. This is happening in conjunction with a new inability to connect to a network printer - it won't show up on the list of printers, even when I manually enter the IP address. Something is obviously mucked up - can anyone tell me what it might be & how I can fix it? Thanks!

    I was able to fix this myself by using one of the techniques suggested here for a different problem. Basically I went into Library/Preferences/System Configuration and deleted networkinterfaces.plist, preferences.plist & com.apple.nat.plist. All were rebuilt when I restarted and went to System Preferences/Network and I was able to load the Network Settings. This didn't fix the problem with my printer, but at least it got the settings up.

  • HT5527 Hello, I had 25Go transfered from MobileMe, skimmed down to 5Go now. I cleaned my emails. From mail, on my mac, 'get account information' shows less than 1 Go... From System preferences/iCloud, up to yesterday it showed 12Go... I don't understand!

    Hello, I had 25Go transfered from MobileMe, skimmed down to 5Go now. I cleaned my emails. From mail, on my mac, 'get account information' shows less than 1 Go... From System preferences/iCloud, up to yesterday it showed 12Go...
    I don't understand!
    These information are contradctory. Now my account is locked.
    What Am I supposed to do???
    thanks for your help!

    Well as far as I can tell the only developed alternative to Apple is Microsoft, sure you want to go there?
    iCloud (and Mobile Me before it) are consumer level systems, working correctly they are a poor choice for business use, if you want to stay all Mac try Zimbra if you can let a little Microsoft in the mix use Microsoft Exchange (Mail, iCal & Address Book are compatible as clients), hosted Exchange systems cost about $10 per month.
    Or try to fix what is wrong with your installation (which is clearly not running as it should)

    i cant't verify my icloud account, never received verification email, i did requested it from system preference menu

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

  • HT4901 iCloud app can't be launched from system preferences.

    iCloud app can't be launched from system preferences and screens an error to be reported to Apple:
    Process:         System Preferences [408]
    Path:            /Applications/System Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System Preferences
    Identifier:      com.apple.systempreferences
    Version:         11.0 (11.0)

    Parent Process:  launchd [134]
    The rest of apps can be openned but not iCloud. I have tried to log in into iCloud from the web and my iPhone and it works fine.
    Any help on how to solve this problem from the macbook?
    Thanks

    Does it open in the guest user?  If it's not enabled, you can do it from the apple >> system preferences >> users and groups.  Open the lock, select the guest user account and check the box to allow logging into it.

  • Bluetooth disappeared from system preferences and menu bar...

    My bluetooth preferences disappearead from system preferences as well as the menu bar. I discovered this because my bluetooth mighty mouse stopped working. I tried replacing the batteries but nothing happened. I used my trackpad to click on the bluetooth icon on my menu bar and told it to connect to my mouse, which was there in the list. I got the swirling ball and so restarted my computer, when it came back, bluetooth was gone from the menu bar and system preferences, so now I don't know how to reconnect my mouse.
    I tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM as recommended by another post, I tried it twice as the instructions outline, but I haven't had any success.
    I have tried doing spotlight for bluetooth in system preferences, this takes me to keyboard and mouse, then I get this message:
    "The Bluetooth tab of Keyboard & Mouse preferences is hidden because you don't have a Bluetooth module installed or attached to your computer."
    When I do a spotlight on the entire system, I get a result for bluetooth in system preferences, when I click on that, I get this message:
    "You cannot open “Bluetooth” preferences pane because it is not available to you at this time. You might need to connect a device to your computer to see this preferences pane."
    But, the irony is, that I can't connect a bluetooth device without this option in preferences. Also, in utilities, I remember that there used to be a bluetooth setup assistant, and that is not longer there.
    I realize other threads have come up on this, but I haven't found anything besides deleting the plist, restarting, and resetting the PRAM and NVRAM (whatever that is). I've tried this but haven't been successful so I'm looking for more ideas.

    HI Daniel,
    Try deleting this file.
    com.apple.preferencepanes.cache
    ~/Library/Caches.
    Move that file to the Trash and restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, download and install the 10.5.8 combo update available here.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running 10.5.8.
    Make sure and repair disk permissions after the installation.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. Any suggestion?

    Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. I already tried to rebuild the iPhoto Library (all the possible options) and tried to update teh version from 9.4.3 to 9.5 but the problem still persists: is there a way to delete this slideshow without selecting it ? How can I solve the problem, please?
    Kind Regards

    Can you restore your iPhoto Library from a backup version, that was created before you added the slideshow?
    If not, have you tried to rebuild the slideshow with iPhoto Library Manager?
    As described by Terence Devlin here:  Re: iphoto library was created with an unrelased version of iphoto please quit and ugrade library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4

  • I am running 10.8 and setup airport extreme to run music from my imac to my receiver in the other room. When I open sound from system preferences, I don't see an external device to choose, other then internal speakers. Any ideas?

    I am running 10.8 and setup airport extreme to run music from my imac to my receiver in the other room. When I open sound from system preferences, I don't see an external device to choose, other then internal speakers. Any ideas?

    Airport Express (the small Airport device, which is the only one with an audio connection) works through Airtunes, which only works with iTunes. The computer won't send ALL system sound to the Airport. If you actually want to send sound outside of iTunes, use Airfoil.
