Why can't I can adjust the wallpaper to fit my screen now? It seems to push it out to the full resolution

So I noticed tonight that as I was trying to set a new wallpaper, that it seems to let you adjust the picture but you can't reduce the size to make it fit the screen. If someone can help me this I would be most appreciative.

Were they able to help you, I am having the same problem -- when I called, they told me to restart my computer (just completed that)... fingers crossed, I will let you know if it works!

Why can't the finder in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 find files that have successfully downloaded, or that other programs can find?

Why can't the finder in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 find files that have successfully downloaded, or that other programs can find?
This happens with maybe 1 out of 5 files. These are files that have either an ."aa" extention, or or are libraries that icloud can see, but finder can't.

Files beginning with a period are invisible and library files are system files. Spotlight cannot find either unless configured to do so (btw, this is not a Finder issue but a Spotlight issue.)
Get Spotlight to search system files (and more)
Enter the search term in the Finder window's search field.
Click the [+] button in the search bar to add a search option.
In the first drop down menu choose Other.
Choose “System Files” from the list that pops up (and check the box to place in drop down menu to avoid this step later,) click on the OK button.
Now back in the Finder choose Include from the second drop down menu.

My MacAir has to go in for hardware repair, and I was told that if diagnostics couldn't trigger the error, it would be returned to me to guinea pig the specifics with a log. Why can't the crash reports generated by the computer itself be used?

My MacAir has to go in for hardware repair, and I was told that if diagnostics couldn't trigger the error, it would be returned to me to guinea-pig the specifics with a log. Why can't the automatic crash reports generated by the computer itself be used? I would think they would be the most accurate and specific record of incidents, and could easily be identified with the computer serial number. What am I missing in this scenario?

What you're missing is that diagnostics software doesn't cover everything in any laptop made by anyone.
Intermittent problems, and genuine hardware induced faults typically, or course, are hard to pinpoint.
jet fighter planes contain 1000s of sensors and multimillion dollar live diagnostics and still can't "see" more than 60% of hardware potential faults.
Lucky you, the Air however contains extremely few parts, there isnt much to diagnose on one.
The Air contains 90% fewer parts than a typical laptop from a mere 7 years ago.

Have you guys been able to activate your iphone yet? I bought an iphone 4s from eBay and it worked fine, but the previous user had left some data on it, so last night I used the "erased all content and settings" to restore it to factory setting so I can start fresh and restore my backup. But now I'm stuck at the activation screen (I get the same "the activation server is temporarily unavailable") and can't get it to activate, even if I use my old deactivated AT&T sim card (I'm on straighttalk now).
I might try activating it with an active AT&T sim card from my fiancee's phone when she gets home, so I'll let you know how that works outs.
If it's true that the server is down; anyone know when it will be back up again? Thanks in advance.

Why can't I get the full resolution on my Ultrawide monitor when connected to my MBP?

I just purchased an LG Ultrawide 29" monitor to hook up to my Macbook Pro (Mid-2010 model). The full resolution should be 2560x1080. The only cable that came with the monitor was an HDMI to HDMI cable, so I used a miniDisplayport to HDMI cable that I had. The screen popped up on the monitor, but it was stretched out, and there was a message saying it wasn't configured to the full resolution (and that I need to change it in the Display settings). The problem is there's no option in the Display settings for anything larger than the 1920x1080 standard resolution for this monitor.
I checked the manual that came with the monitor and it mentions that using an HDMI cable with a mac won't allow me to use the full resolution (or sound for that matter). It says instead I need to use a DVI-D dual link cable to get the monitor to work properly with a mac. Only problem is, this particular monitor doesn't have a DVI port on it (I think the manual was referring to a similar but possibly older version that had HDMI, Displayport and DVI ports on it). This one only has two HDMI ports and one Displayport port on it. I browse around online for people that had a similar problem, and I see a comment saying I just need to get a miniDisplayport to Displayport cable and then everything will work fine. I finally bought said cable (which a lot of places apparently don't carry), plugged everything in, and still no dice. The only resolution options for the monitor are still 1920x1080 and less.
Is this a problem with my Macbook? From everything I've looked up, my graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M) should support it, and it says right on the packaging for the Displayport cable that it should support up to a 2560x1440 resolution.

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. It just wasn't worth the hassle. I got a good (standard size) monitor for about half the price of the old one, so I'm not too disappointed. Thanks for your help though

Is there a way to find the serial number in these files so that I can reinstall the full version?

I had to restore from backup to a new hard drive, and only have part of my Adobe Photoshop installation. Is there a way to find the serial number in these files so that I can reinstall the full version? I have only part of the documentation so this is the best way I see to get the full version back.

Hello brad,
you did purchase your product from these firms like Amazon, so you didn't get a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.
Additionally you should have a look at Adobe's database, to see what's stored/saved about your accounts. Here you will find general infos about your Adobe Account.
On the other hand, if necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I for may part had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.

How to scroll in a text box so you can see the full text

Hello treboh3,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
It's not very clear to me what the issue is that you're experiencing, but if you just want to scroll a text cursor through your text, then follow the directions below.
Revise text. Touch and hold the text to show the magnifying glass, then drag to position the insertion point.

Photos cannot find my the full resolution of my images.

I create a book in Photos.
I save, close, power off.
Next day, the full resolution version of lots of images are apparently missing from the book.
If I locate the missing image in Photos, export the original, reimport it and place the reimported image on the page, it works.
How can this be avoided?

With the volume mounted you can use the demo version of iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild the library and it will make the rebuild library an "managed" library. However, you must have iPhoto 9.6.1 in order to do so. If you don't have it you can get it from the App Store by following the instructions in this post:

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

HT204264 Optimize storage on an iOS device. When or how do the full resolution copies get removed

I have been using iCloud photo library for a week and have been using it to look at some old photos and watch old videos from the photos app on an iPhone. After vieiwing this old data the library now takes up more space on the phone. I have optimize storage turned on.
I assume the iPhone is just storing thumbnails of everything in the library, and when accessing a file it then downloads the full resolution copy (or a higher resolution copy fit for viewing on an iPhone). My question is when does this full or higher resolution copy "return to the iCloud" so to speak, so you are just left with the thumbnail? Or can this be done manually?
For example say I take a 1GB video on my phone today and it gets uploaded to the iCloud photo library today, when will the full resolution copy dissapear from the iPhone and just the thumbnail or lower resolution copy is left taking up space on the phone?
I have a 70GB library, the amount of space taken up on the phone for photo library was around 5GB a week ago, after a week of accessing some of this old data it's now around 15GB
Many thanks

Since it does not look like apple developers provided us with any information on when optimization will occur, I am under impression that people with large
libraries are better off by staying with icloud beta library turned off at the very least on the phone.

There is a problem with the photo with the filename "null". The full resolution version of this photo either cannot be located or is corrupt. Please replace this photo or delete it from your book.

Absolutely INFURIATING.
I have spent absolute hours building a photo album for the first year or my sons life. Sorting through quite literally thousands and thousands of images. Got a brilliant looking album using 177 of them.
Now everytime I try to check out it won't get past page 1 of building the book.
It says the following "There is a problem with the photo with the filename "null". The full resolution version of this photo either cannot be located or is corrupt. Please replace this photo or delete it from your book.".
The images all look perfect. I have even tried taking them out and re adding the first page images from the library.
Same problem.
This is so annoying. So far I have NOT been happy with this iphoto application having nothing but problems with missing thumbnails. Corrupted images. Things that have never happened to me using a windows machine.

Do the filenames contain special characters, like "ä,ü,..." or white space or are the vry long? Is there anything special about the image format? Try to export the edited versions in that case and reimport it with a different, shorter filename.
For testing, create a new book with only the images you want to check.
If this does not fix it, try rebuilding. Depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild the library.

Taking the full resolution photos from my iPod and putting them on an eMac

I'd like to put all the 5000+ photos that are on my iPod (and my new iMac) onto my wife's eMac. HOWEVER, I really don't want to mess with anything else on her computer. (Truth be told, I'm under a "never touch my computer again" order from doing on too many "improvements".)
But I would like her computer as a back up on the family photos. So, how do I do it?
Also, there are several album's worth of somewhat good music that she's purchased using her computer. How do I get it onto my computer? (Again, without endangering her stuff in any way?
Thanks.

If you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in Finder, open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to the desktop. For enabling disk use look here.

Why can't iPod touch 2G use home screen background wallpaper?

It really didn't make any sense. Everyone wants to update their iPod touch to iOS 4 just because they want to use Multitasking and home screen wallpaper. But Apple just don't let all the iPod touch 2G users use these features. I know that the touch 2G hardware is not powerful enough for the multitasking ability and it's reasonable, but just why can't we just replace the home screen background by a picture?

Reports have quoted that Steve Jobs said that icon performance was degraded too badly with wallpaper for Apple to feel comfortable including that feature.

Why can access the dynamic textField inside a Button?

yep, I have another problem
I create a button in the library, it has a background graphic
on a layer and a textField, the textField has a instance name
defined in the properties panels and some text. I manually place
some instance of the button on stage, I give them different
instance names and voilà a new problem arise
when with actionscript I try to assign a new text to the
textField inside a button it throws me error 1119. A quick look at
the menu option debug ->list objects, shows me that the instance
name of the textField inside the button it is not what I defined
but it was replaced with some random name like "instance66"
I did a test with a movieclip instead of a button and I can
correctly access my textField with the instance name that I
manually defined.
Why that can be the same with the button? And if for some
arcane reason cant be possible to access a manually defined
instance inside a button WHY flash give me the possibility to give
an instance name to a dynamic textField inside a button?

Buttons simply do not have the same properties and methods
that movieclips have. Anytime you want to create a button that has
anything beyond the simple 3 states of activity, use a movieclip.
I can't answer why flash allows you to give an instance name
to the textfield, but in any case, it won't allow you to use
it.
