Why Do I have to load adobe Flashplayer each time I switch my computer off and on again this only started about 2 weeks ago is it a firefox problem or an adobe issue. I am using adobe Flashplayer ver 11
This is a good question. It's possible your Xserver isn't configured for the correct mouse type. Try logging into a command line console (no X11 running). Run /usr/bin/X11/X -configure. It should create an Xorg configuration file in your root directory.
Copy this to /etc/X11/Xorg.conf and try restarting your Xserver. The file it creates might require some tweaking.

Since purchase of my macmini (2011 model) I have been able to wake it from sleep by hitting the (wired) keyboard space bar.
However, I recently updated the OS to 10.7.4 using the combo (1.4Gb) update, since when I cannot wake the macmini in that way.
Now, after putting the macmini to sleep, pressing the spacebar causes it to shut down.
I then have to switch mains power off and on again at the wall socket, after which the macmini starts up from shutdown condition.
I am by no means an expert, and have not been fiddling with settings, so I am in need of advice on what could need resetting to allow me to return to the previous simple 'wake up' approach!
Thanks.Reset the SMC > Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
3. Wait fifteen seconds.
4. Attach the computer's power cord.
5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Followed by resetting the PRAM > Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
3. Turn on the computer.
4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
6. Release the keys.
Then if those do not fix the problem, you may need to reset your Energy Saver and Keyboard Preferences by readjusting them. -

When I go to 'desktop' in system preferences and choose an image for the desktop, it disappears when I turn the computer off. Why is this? And how can I get an image to remain until I choose to change it? It acts this way whether I click 'change' or not.
If you log in automatically, a known bug will cause the desktop picture to revert to the default image of a galaxy at every startup. The only workaround is to disable automatic login in the Users & Groups preference pane.
If the desktop picture always reverts to a plain blue background, one of your login items may be causing the problem. The "Team Viewer" application has this effect, as reported by ASC user Zimmerwald. If it's not that in your case, rule out all other third-party login items as possible causes.
According to one report, a "stuck" desktop picture setting can be fixed by changing the setting and then immediately rebooting. I can't confirm, but there's no harm in trying it.
If none of the above applies to you, proceed as follows.
In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following item, if it exists:
Caches/com.apple.systempreferences
and move the following item to the Desktop:
Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Launch System Preferences and test. If you still have the issue, put the item on the Desktop back where it came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the item. -
I Have an iPad mini ios 8.02 with retina screen from 3 days ago email asks for iCloud ID every time I press icon for new message/reply. Although I can press cancel and still write message. This is most annoyin. Any solutions
For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,

Why do I have to upload entire site each time?
Loving the iWeb stuff, except for one thing, and that is that when I change one of my hundreds of pages, I can't just seem to upload the few html pages, I have to upload everything.
One thing is I am using Adobe GoLive since I'm not using a .mac account and I don't know how to set up iWeb to upload. Even if I did, would iWeb only upload changed pages or would it not upload the entire site, every podcast, every media file, everything - it seems to when I publish to a folder.
Any refs or suggestions much appreciated.
thanks

iBook G4 1.25G/G5 2 Gig DP 1.5Gig RAM Mac OS X (10.4)Yes, it's true....when you are not publishing directly to .Mac, the only alternative you have is to "Publish to Folder". This publishes your entire site to a local folder. You would then need to use an FTP program to upload this to your 3rd party webserver.
I have heard good things about an FTP program called CaptainFTP. It is available here: http://captainftp.xdsnet.de/ The only reason I have remembered it is because it has some sort of synchronization function to its FTP capability and can sort out which files need to be uploaded and which files already exist on the server. For iWeb pages, I believe you have to turn off the "by date" method of detection.
Anyways, check it out. Do a search in this forum for CaptainFTP and you will see a bunch of comments and tips for using it. Good luck! I hope this helps you out. -
Why do documents have to be saved-as, each time we upgrade indesign
Each time we upgrade Indesign, every document that gets opened, has to be saved-as. But the save as dialog box never shows the folder where the document is stored. Is there a way to configure Indesign to save back to where it came from, without us having to navigate back to that folder in the save as dialog box.
Thank you Bob. Guess I was hoping for a settings or preference option to "allow overwriting saves" or at least a Save as dialog box that would open to the folder that contains the document. We use a lot of different Indesign documents and forms. Each time we upgrade, the first time we open any document, we need to do the 5-8 clicks to navigate to the document folder in the save as dialog box. Oh well. I'll quit complaining and get back to work.

For about 11 months Adobe Reader performance has gotten worse and worse. It crashes about every third time I try to open a file, and frequently when I search for text strings using the find function. I have re-installed the program, I have the latest installation according to Adobe.
I've saved two files on my desktop:
f1040.pdf - downloaded from www.irs.gov - 187 KB
afmod07.2.1g.pdf - downloaded from my intranet - 1,04MB
I've powered off my PC and restarted for each file. I've opened files with double-click on them. I've encountered the same problem, when double-clicked on files in task manager two Acrord32.exe appeared, the PC was doing anything for about 10 second, after that I've encountered no activity in task manager (numbers not vary) for other 10 seconds (like freeze) and after that other about 10 seconds of loading. So after about 30 seconds the file opens with stand-alone Acrobat Reader (11.0.10).
If I retry now (after the first slow startup "of the day") the file opens in 2-3 seconds.
So:
- first open of the day or rebooting PC: 30-45 seconds
- second open of the file: 2-3 seconds
This is happening only with PDFs with forms.

My iPhone 4 has lost SIM connection several times over the past week when the phone is left on continually. I have had the SIM checked and it was not the source of the problem. I have found that I can reactivate the SIM by switching the phone off and on again. Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so, is there an easy fix. I have been advised by Apple that the latest IOS update may overcome this situation but I'm only on slow download speeds and 690 Mb would take forever. I would appreciate any advice.
Best regards,

Why does Safari load each time I boot my computer?
I like Safari alot, but I don't like how it loads by default every time I reboot my computer. Why is it doing this and how can I stop it?
Thanks!It starts up because you probably have it listed as a Login Item for your account. You can check that by opening System Preferences > Accounts and click on the Login Items tab and look for it. If you see it there, select it and click the minus button to get rid of it.

I installed a new SSD drive in my computer and now Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium says I don't have a license. I have license. It was very expensive. I am disabled now, and I need this software working. Adobe Acrobat has been a primary tool for accommodating memory problems after a brain injury. (A car ran me down while I was out getting exercise.) I installed the SSD because I needed my management of PDF files to run faster. I called tech support for help when the software first stopped working, but they needed me to give them a number from my original disks. Because of my disability, I've been having someone come in to clean, and the shelves where I kept my software packages were cleared. I've been hunting for them ever since, but I can't look for them myself for very long at a time. Today I finally found them, but now I can't seem to contact tech support. What happened? I don't want to delete my old files because I need the setup to remain unchanged, because I don't do well with changes. I think all I should need is to have someone located the license file on drive E: and move it to wherever it is needed on the SSD drive, but I don't know what to look for.
Tech support is not normally available on weekends. You should contact them as soon as the weekend passes and pick up where you left off with them.

I've been having an issue with assistive touch, every time I open an app. the AT disappears the from the screen and I have to turn it off and ON again. Is there a way to fix this?
Try:

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

HT201250 Why do i have to use the password for time capsule every time i start my computer
Why do I have to use thr password for time capsuel every time I start my imac?
With hindsight, the previous response I got from Apple was just a way of shelving the problem.
Having just had to reset my password after another 3 months, I contacted Apple again, and it happened that the senior advisor whom the phone agent consulted had had exactly the same problem as me, and had found that iTunes could fix it. However when I spoke to iTunes they told me I needed to speak to Apple ID account security. The Apple ID account security representative spoke to a senior adviser, then told me that it would be fixed after I reset my password. However I am not convinced that anything was actually done, so I may be back here in another 3 months ...
To modify Roger's advice, the solution I was given is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column, 'iTunes Store' in the third column, then "Account Management" and "Apple ID account security", then "Talk to Apple support now". A complication is that the "Talk to Apple support now" option only appears when UK English is selected. So you either need to select UK at the top, or find another way of making phone contact (the email link just went back to the person in iTunes)!
