Why does mouse suddenly begin showing little white option box I don't need?
Hi...going from my trusty (albeit simple) lil eMac to my PMG5Quad has an odd side effect that causes me much complication when I am trying to edit.
The mouse (for a reason I really can't discover) will suddenly begin giving me an information box full of options I don't need at the time. I then can't continue to edit,of course.And can't figure out how to get it to stop without unplugging it completley and then plugging it in again. I'd love to know what I am doing (if anything) to trigger this interesting,but for me untimely convenience. Thanks,Kate
If you are familiar with the way the Mighty Mouse works - then read no further.
It could be that you are clicking the mouse with your finger on the right side of the scroll-ball which is the right "button" and is enough for the 'Mighty Mouse' to think it's a 'right-click' and bring up the 'control-click' options box.
You could either try to keep your finger away from the area to the right front of the scroll-ball or keep both fingers on both right and left 'buttons' until you do want to right-click and then you have to lift your left finger away from the mouse.
This takes a long time to say and it's probably not the problem, but anyway...

HT5312 Why does my device not show me the option to reset my security questions
My I pod 5 will not let me purchase anything without my security questions but I forgot them. When looking to restore them I was not given the option to reset my questions. What do I do???....
1. Because you haven't previously set up a rescue email address. Doing so now requires correctly answering two of the questions.
2. Go back to the article you asked this question from and use the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section. If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, you can't reset the questions yourself, and nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?
Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?
Don't understand your question - "manage storage"? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to connect to your computer? Are you trying to free up some storage space?
How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem. Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source. Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all. In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
Is there any help for this affliction? -
Why does my exported swf show more content than actually on frame?
Why does my exported .swf show more content than actually on frame?
My problem is relatively simple, though, I had some trouble finding a solution to it:
When I play my exported animation using flash player in Google Chrome, if the window is bigger than the resolution flash document/frame, it shows content not meant to show up on the frame -- like parts of a huge background that aren't supposed to show up yet.
In other words, how do I constraint the .swf to the white background/document resolution?Anyone? I'd appreciate it if someone replied soon -- I am done with my project once this issue is resolved, and I am excited to publish it.
Please respond if you have any useful knowledge on the matter!
Thanks! -

Why does my ipod only show an apple and wont start up
Why does my Ipod only show an apple and wont do anything else> And holding down the two buttons has done nothing!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -

You can't remove the time. However, if you make the column narrower, only the Date will show. -
