Why does the "more info" of "Get info" get erased after the first time I look at it, and how can I get it back?

When I download a graphic, photo, or PDF, I can get information about it, including size and the web address of the download, using Get info. But in Mountain Lion, after I look at a file once, this information disappears. This wasn't true of Snow Leopard, though I can't remember whether it was true of Lion. In any case, it seems like a bug. Is there a way to recover this information?

Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

How do you suppress page numbers. I am trying to print a screenplay for the first time since switching to Pages and I can't suppress Page #1 without making the rest of the pages inaccurate, as page #1 is the Title Page. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Why does my sidebar index of bookmarks take so long to recover every time I move a bookmark and how do I fix it?

Once I've moved a bookmark in the sidebar, the entire list will freeze up for sometimes a minute before anything works again.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

JajLvr, if it drives you crasy, then get a BT keyboard.

Agreed. Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.

Why does the tab button in Safari close safari and not open a new tab?

Why does the tab button in Safari close Safari and not open a new tab?

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Can you try to use another computer?
If this does not work, visit an Apple Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place, and show them the phone, maybe they can restore it before you'll have to get it serviced.
Did you try to put it in recovery mode?

I just downloaded the new iOS 5.0 and did all of the backup prompted steps beforehand, but I can't figure out how to get all of my apps and music back on my iPhone. Where did they go and how can I put them back on my iPhone?

Hi, Abril_Perez17.
This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music. See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled. This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

Kindly inform any email id or toll free number to contact apple for your below answer, Mr.King_Penguin
About receiving my credit card being debited for Free App Store Application downloads,
It should be within a few days, but it might vary a bit by bank/provider :
I am in India, if the bank don't refunds , what to do?
Rajagopal.pngr :- It is only a holding charge, it is not a permanent charge. If it isn't refunded within a few days or so (and it quite possibly won't be over a weekend) then you can query the charge with Apple.

I inadvertenly clicked on HD when purchasing a season's pass for a tv show, In the midst of the download of the first episode I discovered my mistige. How can I change the purchase to SD before it downloads any more episodes?

I inadvertenly clicked on HD when purchasing a season's pass for a tv show, In the midst of the download of the first episode I discovered my mistige. How can I change the purchase to SD before it downloads any more episodes?

Apologies if this is an off-target question, but had you bought the HD season originally or just the SD version?
The reason I ask is that I have had similiar difficulties with the autodown load and when I check for available downloads on season passes, it says all downloaded.
Then, when I go to the store and search for the season, it first brings up the HD season indicating I would need to make a new purchase, but if I select on SD, there are my purchases and I can freely (and manually) download the latest episode without new cost.
Needless to say, neither of us should have to go looking. Here is the iTunes technical support email: <[email protected]>. I encourage you to email them. I have already done so but I think it helps for anyone with this problem to also do so, so that they will realize it is a wider spread issue and not a human error by a single user.

I have a new Macbook Air and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on. The computer is not hot.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

I have a new Macbook Air, 6 months old, and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on and the computer seems to running more slowy.The computer is not hot but I am worried it may burn out,.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

Hello dwb,
Here is the screen shot, just the top half, there are another 10 pages, but I guess this should enough for you to have an idea of waht is going on, bit small I am afraid. No, I don't have any apps setup to run when I open my computer, the kernel, varies between 290 and 305 per cent ish.
Would that PRAM thing help ? I think it may be the computer itself, well something inside, as this the first time that the fan has ever started running since I have this computer, even when I have 3 or 4 apps running.
Thank you again for your advice,
Regard,

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

To restore from backup see:

If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I have over 20 songs and apps on my phone and when i connect it to my computer none will transfer over into my Itunes on my computer this is the first time this has done this and i dont want to loose anything, everything is up to date so im not sure why this is happening

The computer must be authorized to the same account you have on your iPhone. Connect the phone and choose Transfer Purchases from the iTunes File menu.

Why does the "more info" of "Get info" get erased after the first time I look at it, and how can I get it back?
