WHY DO MY ICONS OVERLAP IN FINDER, LAUNCH PAD, AND OTHERS MAKING IT UNREADABLE?
Why do my icons overlap in finder, launch pad, and others. This makes it unreadable.
This is an iPad forum. iPad does not support Finder or Launch Pad.

Mike,
Any document left open when you Quit the application reopens when you restart the application. Rather like the jacket that I neglected to hang up when I came home last night. It's still lying on the chair by the door.

Why isn't Mountain Lion downloading? It shows up in Launch Pad and says it's downloading but nothng happens.
Depending on your connection speed, it could take anywhere from 1-8 hours to download. It's a 4GB download.
On the average 3Mbps home network connection, it will take 3-4 hours to download. -
Install for mountain lion is not progressing - for about 3 hrs now. It went to the launch pad and just has a dot, saying it is "downloading", but no progress. Shouldn't i get a "time remaining" somewhere?
The Download is about 4GB, it depends on how fast your internet connection is and how busy Apple computers are. Have you any way of checking if your Internet is downloading, I.E activity lights on you router. My Internet is 8Mb/s download and it took just over an hour to download earlier today.
I am not sure about a "time remaining"icon. -
I have an airport extreme 2013. Why does my airport utility sometimes display IP addresses and other times the names of the devices? I want it to always display the device names.
The utility has had less and less useful information .. it might be time to simply find a different utility.
Fing network scanner. iphone and ipad.
https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/fing-network-scanner/id430921107?mt=8
This is very popular.. I do not know of what works well on Mac OS because i have installed 5.6 utility which of course has far more info than the later toy version. Plus using an Asus router which has excellent listing of all the clients.
Sometimes beating yourself up to make apple routers do what you want is easier solved with lateral thinking. -
Why I had no problems with the VZW employees and other people have?
I think that most people who cannot resolve problems with the VZW have an attitude problem.
Wise saying: you can get more with honey than with vinegar.
Since I “upgraded” my old Samsung Sway to a new Samsung Intensity III, in the past three weeks I spent many hours dealing with the VZW store employees, customer service reps, and tech support people. The phone was replaced two times, and I had no problem getting the replacements.
The third phone did not working how I expected.
Today I called VZW customer service and said I don’t need anymore trouble shooting and I wanted find a resolution, which will be satisfactory to both of us. After a short conversation with a customer service rep, I was connected with a tech support. I told him that I don’t need any more trouble shooting on the Samsung Intensity III because I already spent HOURS doing that on three devices.
We spoke about what the VZW could offer me, about replacements with different phones, etc. Our conversation ended with me offering the resolution that could satisfy me, which was to keep this phone and my account will be credited for the $30.00 “upgrade” fee and I will buy Samsung Sway on eBay. NO PROBLEM.
My account was credited and I was advise about the ESN number and activation.
Why I had no problems with the VZW employees and other people have? The answer is simple. I did not have attitude when I was spoke to them.
So if you want the problem to be resolved, put your anger in you pocket before you start the conversation. You can say that you are angry, frustrated, etc like I did, but add that you understand that this is not their fault that the manufactures makes a crap phones.Yes, you are right. I lost my upgrade. Also, it’s true that I could buy the phone on eBay… if I knew then what I know now. In the past, I never had problem with any of my phones. Doing an upgrade with the VZW was a normal thing for me. I didn’t expect that Samsung Intensity III would be a junk phone. My last upgrade was 4 years ago. I had $50.00 ‘new every two’ credit on my account, which was used for an upgrade. I lost the $50.00 credit paying for Samsung Intensity III. Sometimes we learn from our mistakes or from a bad experience. Three weeks ago I did not know that I could buy a phone on eBay and activate with VZW without paying $30.00.
Samsung Sway is coming from …eBay – keep your fingers crossed for me. -
Why can't I download my already purchased music and other files from iCloud, even though I owe money to iTunes for my most recent purchases. Doesn't seem right that they keep me from accessing those files which I've already paid for!
- Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
- Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

I want to delete photos from camera roll on my iPhone to clear space to install ios7 but after importing photos to iPhoto on my macbook pro only 4 out of 339 photos taken in September landed in events, though all 339 are in Sept photo stream. It seems like on previous uploads all photos "fell" into events according to the day they were taken, as well as into photostream. I want to make sure these photos stick around permanently and do not exist only in photo stream where I imagine they will eventually be bumped from my computer (photostream). Can anyone explain why some of my photos are landing in events and others are appearing only in photo stream?
You have uploaded two different things - pHotos are in one and only one event - if you have the same photo in two different events then you have imported it twice
Please explain what you want - your initial question and yoru current comments are 180 degrees apart
You say they are not all in events
Can anyone explain to me why some of my photos are landing in events and others are appearing only in photo stream?
Now you say they are
All 15 pics appear in Sept 2013 PS
It sound to me like you have no problem except you imported some photos twice adn you may not understand how the automatic import form PS works - but that is not clear
you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, to select Photo Stream > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.
The event they are imported into is MMMM YYYY PS
If you import via iTunes sync or by connecting your IOS device via USB then they are importeed into the regular event structrue as defined in your iphoto preferences - and if you imoport via two or more different methods you will ahe duplicates

Why does reader freeze while opening some pdf files and others open instantaneously?
I use pdf files created from CamScanner and shared from DropBox. In DropBox, many times (over 50%) while opening the PDF the process freezes and the error message is Adobe Reader is not responding. If you close the program, and re-open the file, it opens fine. I have saved these files to my computer and the same issue occurs. The files are 100-500kb, so I do not think size is the issue. I have reinstalled Reader (11.1.10) and there is no improvement.
This appears to have reduced the time to load a document. Thanks Jimb From: Anubha Goel <[email protected]>

Hi Im using os 10.7.5 and i can't see the progress status in the launch pad and in purchase tab in mac app store. PLEASSSSSEEEE HELP!

I upgraded one of my programs and now the icons for both old and new appear on the launch pad. I don't need or want the old version to display, as it's been imported into the new one. I can't seem to figure out how to edit it off the launch pad.
Hi there,
More then likely, the old version was installed independently from the App Store. The article below goes over the process for removing these application.
OS X Lion: Install, update, and uninstall apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph4524
To uninstall other apps, drag the app to the Trash (the Trash is located at the end of the Dock), and then choose Finder > Empty Trash.If you change your mind, before emptying the Trash, select the app in the Trash, and then choose File > Put Back.Warning: When you empty the Trash, the app is permanently removed from your computer. If you have any files that you created with the app, you may not be able to open them.
Hope that helps,

Why did my index.htm file generate blank? and other weirdness.
Here's the story. Maybe someone can tell me where I made my mistake, or what happened. I'm numbering the steps for convenience in discussing this.
1) I started a new project, a WebHelp project.
2) I imported content in Word.
3) I created an index, glossary, and TOC. I used wizards for some of this.
4) I created a style sheet and applied it to all the topics.
5) I added a skin from the gallery.
6) I generated output.
Then I sent that output to the UI developer on my project. He plugged it in to the web app, and it seemed to work fine. So then:
7) I opened the project, edited the text, and removed glossary links (because I didn't like how they were working) individually.
8) I generated a new TOC to match the changed topic structure (minor changes).
9) I generated another output.
I sent that output to the UI developer and he said it was blank. I opened index.htm and sure enough, it was indeed blank. In fact, it was Zero KB. I also noticed that four other files were blank: whfform.htm, whform.js, whskin_plist.htm, and whtbar.js.
So then I decided to start over. I created a new project, imported just the html topic files from the old project, redid the index (in a hasty and less thorough manner), decided to bail on the glossary for now, did a TOC and sent that to the developer.
Now the Search pane is totally wonky, showing a list of characters and terms.
So I am getting frustrated. The developer has tried monkeying around with stuff on his end, but it's not working. So he says, why don't you send me a build with everything?
The problem is, I have two broken builds. The first one, which for whatever reason has the blank index.htm file (and other blank files), and the second one, which has no glossary, a messy index, and a screwed up search.
I can't seem to find anyone else having this problem. :-/ Can someone help?
Thanks so much,
TamarleighI am having the exact same problem, and I think I've figured out what is happening here. There is an issue when mapping Word styles into RH. The person who setup our Word template included a sidehead with conditional text to hide instructor notes when printing participant training manuals. I removed the conditional text, and everything is working fine. You may want to double check to make sure you don't have conditional text in your Word docs. I've uploaded an image with the code below to show how the conditional text looked when the document was linked and generated.
Check out the code below:
<table cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: top; padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px;
padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px;" height="800" width="114"><table
cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td style="padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;"><div v:shape="Text_x0020_Box_x0020_146"
class="shape" style="padding: 3.6pt 7.2pt 3.6pt 7.2pt;">
<p class="WD_InstructorNotesHeading"><span style="background: #ffff00;">Instructor
Notes:</span></p>
<p class="WD_InstructorNotesText"><span style="background: #ffff00;">Add
any additional instructor information into this text
box.  It will only appear when hidden text
is turned on.</span></p>
<p class="WD_InstructorNotesText"> </p>
</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

I just got a new macbook pro. I was in launchpad and there were two imovie icons so I clicked on one and deleted it.
It seems as though imovie is missing from my computer completely now. I have not emptied the trash, but it is not in there.
Where has my imovie gone and how do I get it back? I don't understand why it isn't in the trash or anywhere on my computer.
Please helpHi wjosten,
Yes, I have checked the app folder and there is no imovie in there, there is also nothing in the trash.
I have also checked the HD for imovie and it seems as though it's just gone?
Thanks for your help, if you have any other suggestions I would really appreciate them. -
Troubles with opening Finder, System Preferences, and others from dock
I am having problems with Finder, System Preferences, applications like Word, Excel, and Firefox. When I click on their icons in the dock, the menu bar appears with the name of the application and file, edit, etc. but the application does not open a window on the screen. I just see my background pic. Some of the items in the menu bar that pop down don't work. However, apps like my mail, Safari, Itunes and others work properly.
If anyone can help me with some suggestions, that would be great!
tannikcaHello t:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Do those applications open from the application folder? If they do:
Try trashing a preference file and restarting (com.apple.dock.plist).
If that does not help, drag the icons that do not work off the dock (poof sound). Then go to the application folder and drag the appropriate icon to the dock.
