Why is the pinwheel popping up a lot during my use of iPhoto?  What do I need to do to make it run smoother.
Thanks,

What version of iPhoto? How many items in your Database? How much free space on your Hard Disk?
Have you tried trashing the cache and the plist file?

    M3nth,
    Seems like we're all asking the same question
    As tst says... try not to use the one at the bottom.. it's ... hummm..
    It's behavior is unpredictable...
    As for the multiple listing I'll have to read Molly's response on this (I asked the same question is the "Xtreme thread")

    === EDIT ===
    Hi Molly,
    I read your answer on the bottom search engine..
    That's what I thought it did... but it didn't work for me.. I tried to use it to find some of my own posts within LV.. and it didn't find anything.
    The search was : serial
    I did this while reading a LV question of the subject.
    I shall experiment with the search engine again and report my findings.

    Why have the channel shortcuts changed in CS4? Cyan used to be "cntrl+1" and now it's "cntrl+3" for example. Why?

    Note there's a link to a plug-in in the article that remaps the keys to the old behavior.

  • Why does the iCloud Control Panel say "Install Outlook to use Mail, Contacts, and Calendars?"

    I've just successfully installed the iCloud Control Panel on my PC (runs with Vista). Why does the iCloud Control Panel say "Install Outlook to use Mail, Contacts, and Calendars?" The Bookmarks (with Safari) and Photo Stream options are active, but the Mail (with Outlook), Contacts (with Outlook),and Calendars and Tasks (with Outlook) are not. I'm using Office Outlook 2007. I used to be able to synch my iPhone with my PC's Outlook through iTunes without any problems. Any help would be appreciated.

    I meant to say when in the control panel!

  • Why does the pinwheel show

    The little pinwheel keeps popping up on my screen and is slowing down jumping from one program or website to another. Any thing I should be checking for?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try the action that you're having trouble with again. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.

  • Why does the Antenna range differ a lot between 1728 and 2506

    Hello,
    I'm wondering about the documented approximate range of these two Cisco antennas, that differ a lot.
    Can someone explain the big difference in range between these two antennas that have both the same antenna gain of 5.2 dBi and beam width 360°H and 38° V
    AIR-ANT1728 Indoor antenna
    Indoor range at 54 Mbps: 114ft, 35meters
    AIR-ANT2506 Outdoor antenna
    Range at 54 Mbps: 0.21miles, 340meters
    Can we use the 2506 also for Indoor applications ?
    Please advise and explain.
    Thank You in advance.
    Winfried

    I would assume that the outdoor range is measured in free air ie with no obstacles where the indoor range is indoors and takes account of walls etc.
    I may have seen something on the test methodology but it may have related to clients rather than antennas.
    The 2506 is fine indoors as it says in the installation document
    https://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/antenna/installation/guide/ant2506.html
    However the range will be the same as the 1728 as the RF characteristics are the very similar.

  • Why does the windows pop up in adding add-ons mean and how to get rid of it

    This forum really really needs to be able to accept an image with the request.
    So here I go making an images workaround because the forum is defective
    [[Image:What does this mean]]

    It's no skin off your teeth? Ummm... I think you mean no skin off my nose, teeth don't have skin. Most of your sentences don't make sense, it takes some thinking to figure what you meant. As far as your issue, thanks for explaining it further (that information would have been perfect i the 1st post) that is what I assumed and even the thread i directed you to said it's normal for the windows box to open.
    You take wasting time poorly? I find that hard to believe, because you're spending a lot of time to give me a hard time, I didn't use language (care to point the words out?).

  • Why does the App Store open randomly when I'm using Safari?

    It simply opens the apps store to some game unprompted. It does it without me touching links. It happens without touching anything.
    And yes I have hard reset it and deleted cookies etc. I am not a fool.
    I have seen this question come up a lot and Apple have failed to acknowledge it. It's certainly common enough to be a known problem, so why are they ignoring it?

    This is happening because of bad ads on a site that you are visiting. These ads are designed to randomly redirect mobile device users to other sites or the App Store if the link is to an App. It has nothing to do with your iPad. The random nature of the re-directs is intended to confuse the user and keep this garbage below the radar.
    Turning OFF Javascript bypasses this problem because the mechanism implementing the redirects uses Javascript. This is not really a solution, however, because turning Off Javascript affects all sites and will certainly cause problems.
    Complain to the web site to get these ads removed. They may be unaware of the problem.
    There is no problem with your iPad.

  • Why is the strain on my laptop so much larger using CS6

    Hello
    I have a HP Laptop i7 with an upgrade to 16GB of Ram.   The CPU always ran between 5 and   10 percent The Ram upgrad made CS 5.5  preview window go back in sync. Hooray!
    But since I liked CS 5.5 I thought why not go to CS6.
    Now my CPU hits 100 percent but RAM does not increase as it did before.   The preview is jerky and out of sync.
    I don't know if this is also an issue.  But when I export to H.264 for Vimeo 720P HD a 2 Min video takes 3 hours to render.
    One thing I am asking is.   Although I like cool new things,  I should be using CS 5.5 instead.  Shouldn't I?
    Thank you
    Barry

  • Why does the "Move to new window" function that I used to use not work when I right click on the tab anymore?

    It used to be when I right clicked on the tab in Firefox that I could use the "Move to new window" option. Now when I go down to that option it looks as though it is going to work, but nothing happens. The other day I changed a few options in Firefox, but I don't remember changing anything that sounded as though it would have this effect and now I can't find any options that seem to fix it. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello Beorn, probably the problem is an extension that isn't working correct.'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    thank you

  • Why is the Jelly Bean update FORCED on my phone using up my data?

    Why is this update being FORCED onto my Droid Bionic?  I woke up my phone to discover an update was happening when I was on data, but I have the option set to only update on WiFi. I tried switching to WiFi and the update stalled. So I rebooted on WiFi and the update resumed VERY SLOWLY.  I have calls to make and some apps I need to use, but the whole phone is slow while the update is being downloaded.  WHY DOESN'T IT GIVE ME THE OPTION TO UPDATE WHEN I WANT?

    Thanks Ann, but I guess you're not understanding my situation. I'm at work. I can't plug it in (no plug with me). And it never gave me the option to install or defer installation, as I said. It just started on its own.  I just spent a half hour with Verizon on the phone and they can't explain it either.  It never gave me the option. I know how to use my phone. 
    I had it in Airplane mode at work this morning to save the battery since I was in a part of the building where there's no signal, and when I took it out of airplane mode it started the download, although I didn't notice it for an hour or so.
    I've had to reboot 4 times because it keeps stalling, and it's still only at 80% downloaded after five hours.
    Just wondering if any Verizon people read these boards and if they can offer some wisdom.

  • Why is the iTunes Radio advertisement showing? I'm using the iTunes Match though.

    I joined the itunes match last April. It will be expired on next April.
    Until now, the itunes radio ads haven't been showed up while using the itunes match.
    But Since last week, I listen the ads on the radio like Nissan and so on.
    How do I remove the ads on the radio?

    Re: radio in itunes
    Jan 7, 2013 4:48 PM (in response to grcorey)
    I'm also using ver. 11.0.1 and have Radio, so it's not a version bug.
    Have you deleted the iTunes pref files?  Close iTunes and go to your user Library->Preferences.  Unless you've changed your OS to do this, the Library folder is invisible in the newer versions of OS X.  Open a Finder window, and while holding down the Option key, click on Go in the top menu bar.  You'll see your Library there, so click on it and go to the Preferences folder.  If you're viewing preferences alphabetically, scroll down to com.apple.iTunes.  Delete anything that has those words in the file name (there will probably be about 6 of them).  No worry; this won't hurt anything.  When you re-open iTunes, new pref files will be created.
    Now, since you just entered this topic and weren't a part of the original discussion, I was assuming that your reply was to say that you weren't seeing any Radio option in iTunes.  That's what I'm trying to assist with here.
    Re-open iTunes and see if anything is improved.  If not, can you post a screen shot of your iTunes window?

  • Why does the "Dispose Report.vi" doesn't release memory used by report

    I have prepared report that includes a few tables After finishing printing, the amount of memory used by my application is bigger. Next printing of the raport lead to crash the LabView because of lack of memory.
    It also cause mu application to work slowly.
    The amount of used memory is checked by the Task Manager. My operating system is Windows NT 4.

    This issue has been reported to R&D, and they are currently going through the VIs and the dll to track down all the memory leaks.
    You can go through the VIs and edit them so that every open reference has a reference close. This will not fix all of the leaks but might be enough to get your program working.
