Why can't i close finder

why cant i close finder even if i try to force quit it?

The Finder is how you and your Mac filing system interact. Without the Finder (or a Finder replacement such as PathFinder) you cannot find files or launch programs. The Dock doesn't function without the Finder. So asking how to quit the Finder is rather like asking how to remove the car's steering wheel so the driver will be more comfortable during long trips. Can't do it - wouldn't want to do it.

Why can i not close a tab after i have 2 showing the only why 2 leave that site is 2 exit all tabs and restart firefox

why can i not close a tab i have 2 close all tabs and restart firefox then selet browse this is verry anoying

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

Why can't Weblogic 12c find Managed Bean by annotation,which in a jar?

the detail:
why can't Weblogic 12c find Managed Bean by annotation,which in a jar?

Hi,
I got the same problem with weblogic 12c.
Somehow this guy got it working by using CDI and creating an empty beans.xml, it did not work for me.
i found the tricky problem is that should put a empty but include the <beans> tag beans.xml file.
http://www.coderanch.com/t/562233/JSF/java/WebLogic-Eclipse-Indigo-develop-JSF
I also tried to skip managedbean and use CDI ( @named ) but then I get some jboss weld exceptions on the value attribute of some jsf components.
I also saw this post
Can't seem to get a trivial CDI example to work on Weblogic 12c
I don't use OEPE very often so I'll need to kick this around a little when I get a chance.
Just as an out there kind of thought, OEPE does use the split-directory model for deployment by default -- perhaps try adjusting it to use the exploded archive model instead, just as a test to see if it removes the error?
Right click the server config and select Properties > WebLogic > Publishing > Publish as exploded archive
It seems like the Virtual Application deployment model of OEPE doesn't support CDI.
thanks

Why can't PSE 9 find the file to load styles

Use Task Manager to kill any running processes associated with PSE, then reboot.
Use Control Panel's Programs and Features to uninstall PSE.
The use Windows Explorer to delete any remaining PSE directories following these directions (change the names to version 10):

Why can't i see "Find iPhone" App under cellular data so I can turn it on?

Why can't i see "Find iPhone" App under cellular data so I can turn it on?

We have cell data plan.
I have other phones (4s) and can see "Find Phone" App under Cellular Data and can turn on/off. But the problem phone does not have "Find IPhone" to be able toturn on/off. I made sure app is running when i go to Cellular Data. I guess the question is why do Apps show up under Cellular Data to be able to turn on/off? I thought if the app was made for Cellular Data it automatically showed up under Cellular Data.

Why can't LabVIEW 2011 find my PXI?

I'm migrating some real-time Projects from older versions of LabVIEW (8.6 and 2010) to LabVIEW 2011. For the older systems, I installed the appropriate Real-Time software (matching version numbers) on a PXI controller, which MAX saw just fine. When I opened my Project, I chose a New Target and had it look for an existing Real-Time PXI -- it always found the PXI without trouble.
I've just taken another PXI controller (8176) and installed LabVIEW 2011 RT on it. Curiously, during the installation process, MAX identified it (and still does) as a Generic Desktop PC, and when it finds it, gives it a PC-looking icon instead of a PXI chassis icon. When I open my Project in 2011 and try to add this PXI as a target, it finds no Real-Time PXIs. Why is this?
There's a VI called RT Ping Controllers that can find all the PXI controllers -- it finds my PXI, and identifies it (correctly) to me by the name I assigned it, so LabVIEW 2011 can definitely "see" this controller, even if Project (apparently) cannot.
I'm beginning some tests involving TCP/IP (and Network Streams) with this controller and configuration. I've had success with doing this in LabVIEW 2010, but in a (single!) test I've done with this new LabVIEW 2011 RT system, I couldn't "connect". I haven't beaten this system enough, nor done a side-by-side comparison of equivalent code on a LabVIEW 2010 and LabVIEW 2011 system, but would appreciate it if anyone (else) has had issues (or, better, successes) with PXI-related Real-Time in LabVIEW 2011.

Hello,

Why can't I use find my iphone?

Hello,
so, I have an iPhone 4S with ios 7. Very nice. I also have find my Iphone installed, and iCloud enabled. All well. So I lost my iPhone 4S, thought to track it down with find my iPhone as I could still call my iPhone. My girl friend uses my old iPhone 3GS, so I thought just get "find my iPhone" on here phone, and track my 4S. Well, nice try, but doesn't work. It requires iOs 7!!! So I couldnt track my iPhone. Than I tried to use a friends iPhone 4, but he didnt have iOs 7 installed as well. I tried using icloud.com on Safari, it tells me to install the app............
Why can't I install an app, which used to work on a 3GS anymore? I would guess that most people keep their old iPhones, and use it when the new iPhone was lost or stolen. Big surprise that it doesnt work.
Thanks for that.
Regards,
Florian

I do understand the backwards compatibility argument only partly. If I had an iPhone 3GS with Find my Iphone installed ages ago, I would be able to track my iPhone even with an old iPhone. I do understand that new Versions of an App can not support als iOS, but they could keep old Versions for old iOS devices. It is bad enough that the 3GS is not supported anymore with iOS, now all the apps start to not work anymore.
There are other apps with offer that, a warning messages comes up that the latest for the iOS supported Version will be installed, but it is not the latest overall Version. I am happy with that, but apple doesnt seem to do it for their own, very usefull apps, which a very unusefull for me now.

Why can't iphone 4s find location or restaurants in ireland ???and

wats the point having a iphone 4s when it cant find places or anything . can anyone please tell me if there is any settings i need to change to make it work.
thanks.

Apple have to find data sources and licensing for this eventually for the whole world, and it's going to take a while. At the moment, only USA is covered.
Like it says in the Apple Store:
"Siri is available in Beta only on iPhone 4S and requires Internet access. Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Mobile data charges may apply."

Why can I not resize Finder windows by grabbing any side or corner

I love my Macs and Leopard having used PCs for 15 years. But one annoyance of the Mac OS is the inability to resize a window by grabbing any side or corner like I can do in MS Windows.
Being able to resize a Mac OS window by having to grab the lower right corner is a very limiting especially when I have a number of windows open at one time. I would think with all of Apple's sophistication that this would be a simple convenience to add.
Are there any utilities out that that add this functionality to Leopard?
Thanks for sharing in advance.

He said he'd been using PCs, not Macs, for 15 years. I also find it annoying that I cannot resize from any corner or side, and that the maximise button on each window seems to do something totally random.
When you change from one OS to another, do you really expect them to be the same? Then why change? It's like changing from a LH drive car to a RH drive car. It takes a few minutes and that's it.
Different OSs are different otherwise they would be the same.
You don't have a powerful Unix system lying under a Windows GUI and you don't need anti-virus software or have to defrag every day or so. And you do not need to reinstall every month or so or ever get caught in DLL-heck.
Yes Macs are different from Windows machines. I regularly use both and have no problems with either. Whether the gearshift and rearview mirror are on the right or left does not matter to me. I like either.
I'm not sure what disk fragmentation, reinstallation or DLL-**** (never heard of DLL-heck) have to do with the OPs question and observation about being able to drag any corner when you have a screen full of windows. Sounds to me like an attack in desparate defence of OS X instead of constructive discussion.
I also regularly use both, professionally, but there are things that Windows does better than OS X, and there is no reason why OS X could not improve. For example, why can I not selectively remove (i.e. completely destroy) files from my trash?

HT4890 why can't I see/find my photos on the cloud?

I can't seem to find my photos that were on my phone on my cloud account on my pc? I see the folder, I don't see the photos. Any ideas?

The Find My iPhone app is an iOS app. What is it that you are wanting to do? If you want to look at the devices you have set up with Find My iPhone, you need to go to icloud.com and sign in. You will find the app there.

Why can't I close these 2 documents?

I have other documents on my desktop that I can open and close. I can open new Textedit docs. But for some reason these two "untitled" and "untitled 2" will not go away. When I click on the red x or on "close" the red x fades for a few seconds then refreshes and the document is still open. I have deleted all the text from both documents, but cannot delete docs themselves. The yellow (minimize) button functions; just not the red one. I ran Disk Utility>repair permissions; advice from an older post, but that proved fruitless. Thanks for any advice.

Thanks, den.thed. I thought I had already tried that, but apparently I had only put my Mac to sleep without actually closing TextEdit.

Why can't I close the Firefox browser or any pop-ups?

This is a problem I had with Firefox before I formatted my computer a few weeks ago. Firefox was working just fine after the fresh windows install which was great (I actually had to switch to using Safari because I couldn't stand how glitchy Firefox was), but looks like the same problem is happening again!!
In sum: the Firefox browser will not close when I click the X close button in the top corner. Also, no pop-ups will close, whether I click on OK or X or anything to either accept or deny changes. When a pop-up is prompted on a website so that I can upload a picture or other media (such as uploading a new profile picture on twitter), I am not able to scroll through my computer's content on the pop-up (scrollbars don't work), X close the pop-up or even press OK to accept the changes and choose the picture. However, I am still able to access the content, choose an item and browse through folders for what is displayed on my screen, so it is not frozen. It won't even let me use the arrow keys to scroll through the content though.
I have to ctrl+alt+del to close firefox. No, restarting my computer doesn't help. Clearly reinstalling firefox doesn't help as I recently did that when I formatted my computer, and internet explorer, safari and opera work just fine.

In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

Why can't I select "Find"? Something is keeping it dimmed out.

I'd like to search my email for certain content and references. I've done it before using the "Find" entry. But today that's dimmed out and I can't figure out why. Any ideas?

Check Options > Advanced > General and see if the global search is enabled.
