Won't allow me to select QWERTY keyboard

Hi all!!!
I get to the settings screen where I choose the keyboard layout, and it won't allow me to choose another layout. It selected AZERY for me and I don't like it.
Did a soft reset and didn't fix it..... got any ideas??

I'm not sure of your next step and don't want to give you bad advice. For the time being why not add another English keyboard.

When I go to add photos into an existing album the albums won't allow me to select them. How do you fix this problem?

When I go to select the photos then hit the arrow to add to existing album it brings up my albums but they are blacked out and won't allow me to select the album I need the photos to go. How do I make it so the photos can go into an album?

Which albums are you trying to add them to ? You should be able to add them to new albums that you've created directly on the iPad, but you can't add photos to albums that were synced from a computer.

Lion OS won't allow me to select a HD disk to download to

I have "downloaded" Lion 10.7.4 twice. When it gets to the "Select a disk you want to install to" it will not let me select, nor does the "Install" button allow me to continue. Thoughts please?

Under the disk it does display is a link to select from other disks. Click on that to see the other disks on which you can install.
If you have some other problem, then please provide any error message you receive.

Logic Pro 8 won't allow me to select Novation nio 2/4 as input device...

Hi
Can someone please advise about this problem? It used to work fine a while back, but I don't know what's happened since then - under Preferences > Audio > Devices > Core Audio the nio 2/4 shows up, but when I try to select it as my input device for for an audio track all I get to choose from is Input 1 and 2 - no nio 2/4...
I'm stumped... Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks,
Eye.

Hey Erik
After fiddling around I discovered that I can actually use the Nio - I just have to select Input 2 - it doesn't show up as Nio 2/4 like it does in Garageband... Can't remember if it ever did to be quite honest - as I said I haven't worked in Logic for a while so I really need to get up to scratch!

Firefox Hello won't allow me to select which video and audio devices to use when I start a conversation instance.

As per the title. If I ACCEPT a call, or start a conversation I have no choice about which devices are used (video and audio), Firefox seems to just arbitraily decide which to use without asking me. If I make a call or join a conversation it's different, I get a dialog asking me which devices I want to use. Similarly, there's no options to edit the conversation settings to select the device.
I tried just entering the conversation URL into a browser tab, which does give me the dialog, but I cannot join the conversation as it says there are already two people in it.
How to fix this?
Cheers

Update: This just seems to be an oversight. Devs, You have to realize that conversation starters and call answerers still need the ability to select their devices. I know WebRTC and Hello is all still beta, but this seems to be something that should have been realized from the very start.
Are you also aware that the code examples on MDC don't actually work in Firefox, but do work in Chrome? Again, I know you say the API docs are in need of update, but for example source to actually nor work on the browser you develop and it working on a browser you do not seems a trifle ridiculous. If you want this technology to catch on, you've got to be more diligent.

The print menu on my MacBook Air won't allow me to select two sided printing, how do I do this?

Hi Community,
I recently purchased a MacBook Air (my very first Mac) and I cannot access all of the printing options when I print. I am able to print and the printer driver was downloaded, but my options are limited. I cannot enable two sided printing, which is something I was able to do with my current printer via my old laptop. I am in grad school and have a lot of journal articles to print and read that are 60-70 pages each. I'd much rather print these two sided to save paper. I have the latest version of OS X (version 10.8.5) and my printer is an HP Laser Jet P2035n.
Can anyone help me fix this issue so I don't have to use my old laptop to print?
Thanks,
Melissa

Illustrator CS3 - Print - Output - Wont allow me to select Separations

Hi there
I'm silkscreening for the first time. The prepping process should be really simple right? Separate colour layers, using Illustrator, then print each layer onto transparency sheets. Well I'm about to loose my mind.
The image is CMYK, its a single spot colour (I think) which is red and the outlines are black. Printer is a Canon ix6500.
I can't seem to separate the colours in Illustrator CS3?! Why?! When selecting Print > Output > Mode > it won't allow me to select Colour Separations.
I've tried to overcome this by selecting Printer > Adobe Postscript and PPD > Canon ix6500 series. This allows me to select Colour Separations, but then it won't print, it only saves it as a PDF, and prints it as is.
PLEASE HELP!!! Any advice would be appreciated!! I'm going out of my mind here!!

I'm silkscreening for the first time. The prepping process should be really simple right?
It is. But you're misunderstanding the whole principle of color separation.
Separate colour layers...
No. Forget Layers. Layers has nothing to do with color separations. Think of Layers as nothing but an organizational tool for the stack of objects in your file. Color separation is the generation of a separate print for each ink that will be printed.
...then print each layer onto transparency sheets.
No. The image for each ink is printed on its own sheet.
The image is CMYK...
For clarity, don't call it an image. That makes it difficult to figure out what you're talking about. This is Illustrator; an object-based layout program. Your design can contain any number and combination of raster images, vector paths, and text objects. The word "image" in the context of a program like Illustrator always suggests a raster image object. If you're referring to a raster image object contained in the file, call it that: a raster image. If you're talking about your whole artwork, call it the design or the document. Don't call it "the image".
...its a single spot colour (I think)
That's self-contradictory. Nothing can be CMYK and at the same time a single spot color.
Here's a simple key to understanding color separation: Don't think in terms of "colors." Think entirely in terms of inks. In your immediate context, how many inks are going to be used to print with individual silkscreens?
By definition, a CMYK color is built up by overlaying a combination of up to four specific inks: Process Cyan, Process Magenta, Process Yellow, and Process Black. (Note the word "process" here, refering to "four-color process.")
By definition, a spot color is a Swatch (in Illustrator) which represents a single ink.
So "spot color" and "process color" are antithetical. "CMYK" is germane to process color, not spot color. Although process color can be done by silkscreen printing, spot color is more common, and I'm assuming that's what you are targeting.
So it's simple, when you think like this:
Ask yourself: How many inks are going to be allowed to print this design? (Two: a black ink and a red ink.)
Therefore, create that many (2) Swatches in Illustrator. Make sure they are defined as Spot Color Swatches. Use only those two Swatches in your entire design.
You can name those two Spot Color Swatches anyway you want. It doesn't matter. There is a common misconception that Spot Color Swatches must be named like (or even selected from) Swatches in the Pantone Swatch Library. Not so. Regardless of how you name them, each color separation is going to print to its own separation "plate" and the actual image on that "plate" (or film, or vellum) is going to be black. This is true in both process and spot color. In spot color work, each Spot Color Swatch--again, regardless of how you name it-- is going to be printed to its own "plate" and the image on that plate will be black. The name of the Spot Color Swatches, therefore, is nothing more than a convention by which to convey to the printing house what inks you intend to be used for each separation "plate." Obvously, it makes the most sense to name your Spot Color Swatches according to the names of the actual silkscreen inks that will be used (ex: "Nazdar Fire Red"), if you know them. If not, simply naming them "SpotRed" and "SpotBlack" will be fine.
Which brings me to a point of common confusion with which I think you are struggling: Exactly parallel to the matter of merely naming your Spot Color Swatches is the matter of merely coloring your Spot Color Swatches for on-screen display. There is a common misconception that Spot Color Swatches must be selected from some pre-existing Swatch Library (ex: Panone). Again, not so. So long as you define a Swatch as Spot Color, you can use any "color mixer" to specify any color you want for how it is displayed on-screen. You can color your Spot Color Swatch using either the RGB color sliders, or the CMYK sliders. Again, it does not matter one whit. Using the CMYK sliders to color your Spot Color Swatches does not make it "a CMYK color" (i.e.; a process color). So long as the Swatch is designated a Spot Color Swatch it's still defining a spot color (a single ink) and will print to only one separation "plate". Obviously, it makes the most sense to try to color your Spot Color Swatches to approximate how the actual corresponding ink will look in print. But the truth is, it doesn't matter. You could, for example, use CMYK sliders to color your Spot Color Swatch named "Nazdar Fire Red" so that it looks lime green on screen. If you did, the separation plate would still be labeled "Nazdar Fire Red", and it would still have a black image on it, and the color in the final printed result would simply be a matter of what physical ink the printer loaded his silkscreen with.
Again, to summarize that: Using CMYK sliders to color a Spot Color Swatch does not make it "a CMYK color" in terms of color separation. That is, it does not make it a process color. As long as the Swatch is defined as a Spot Color Swatch, it will print to only one color separation plate.
Finally, Layers: Don't worry at all about which Swatch is used on which Layer. You can have a thousand red fills and/or strokes, and a thousand black fills and/or strokes applied to a kazillion different objects, and those objects can be arranged in any stacking order on any number of Layers, or all on one Layer. It doesn't matter. If you've only defined two Spot Color Swatches, and you've only used those two Swatches in your design, then when you print the design to color separations, you will still only get two separations: one for SpotRed, one for SpotBlack (or whatever you named your Spot Color Swatches).
Printer is a Canon ix6500.
The question regarding your desktop printer is always: Is it a PostScript printer? That is, does it contain a (firmware) PostScript interpreter, or does its driver contain a (software) PostScript interpreter? If not, it can't print color separations. If this is your problem, there is a workaround, and a particularly popular one in screen printing, sign making, and other industries: You can "print" to a PDF "virtual printer" (i.e.; software which pretends to be a printer). If you have Acrobat (that's Acrobat, not Reader) installed, and if you are on Windows, you probably have a virtual printer named Adobe PDF installed. If so, you can select that as your "printer" and "print" color separations to it. If you've built your design correctly the resulting PDF will have one page for each ink. (The image on each page will be black.) You can then print those PDF pages to your non-PostScript printer. (This workflow is quite common in small screen printing shops.)

Cannot get MacPro to allow me to boot to an alternative boot disk. Can choose in control panel but will not use the disk to boot. Also won't boot using disk selected using option key

My primary boot disk is encrypted as is a secondary boot disk (backup) but I cannot boot using any other disk. System 10.8.5, MacPro 4.1.
All disks mount using primary boot disk. All disks check out as OK and I have repaired permissions.
When I choose in the control panel the Mac boots but will always use my original boot disk.
When I select the disk using the option key at startup, the boot process stalls with a grey screen and a spinning cursor.
Thanks,
Dave

Still trying to figure this out. I erased the drive, did a format using disk util and then re-installed the system but I still cannot get the disk used as a startup drive. I also tried an external firewire drive and it won't allow me to boot from it either.
I can choose it starting up with the option key but it just gives me a blue screen and the spinning cursor.
If I select it in the startup pref pane it boots into my other startup drive only.

Borderless printing in Lightroom 5--Mac Yosemite, Canon i9900. Selected 8.5x11 borderless media, but LR insists on printing with borders. Tried adjusting cell size and margins, but LR won't allow setting to zero.

LR won't allow me to adjust the margins below minimum values of about 0.25 in. Borderless printing and 8.5x11 borderless media are selected.
LR also won't allow me to increase the cell size. It seems to have a maximum of 8x10.68.
Aspect ratio of the image I'm trying to print is 8.5x11 so it should be a perfect fit.
When I print the same image in Photoshop, it prints borderless just fine on the same printer.
Mac, Yosemite, Canon i9900.

I have had some more trials to print without boarders. This time, it was inside of iPhoto. I had made a greeting card and wanted to print to a custom size. but without the ability to select the size as a boarder less size, I was unable to print directly. So instead, I had to save as a pdf > save pdf to iPhoto and then print the image as a photo (instead of a card).

New MacBook Pro 'sees' WLAN but won't allow to select

Hi
So I just arrived home with a new MacBook Pro and tried to set up my inbuilt airport to connect to my wireless router and no cigar. So frustrating. My old MacBook and iMac are able to connect to the wireless router via inbuilt airport but not my new MacBook Pro. I have tried using the assistant and diagnostics and have achieved no joy. The weird thing is that WLAN comes up as an option and I select it wherever possible but when it comes to the last screen in network preferences, where you select the Network Name, it allows me to select it and then in less than a second it reverts back to 'no network selected'. Go figure.
So it clearly can see my WLAN. I have tried to see what setting are different on this MacBook Pro (accessing internet via cable as no other choice at the moment) and my old MacBook and can't see anything obvious. But then again there's not a lot of settings.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. I love Macs and have been a user/owner for eons but this new one is really frustrating me. Not the usual warm and fuzzy oh I have a new Apple experience. Disappointing.
Fingers crossed one of you out there can help me discover the joy again :-)
Thalia
P.S. I am using an older Belkin wireless router that my MacBook and iMac can recognise in a heart beat.

looks like I hit the nail on the head with that one. Fact is I'm back to 10.5.2 and NO more Airport connectivity issues.
I have 2 black macbooks, a 15 Pro and 2 macmini's. I've had to roll back 2 of them for the same reason, 10.5.3 clearly breaks Airport connectivity reliability, no ifs ans or butts about it.
I'd like to use automator, 10.5.3 fixes many of the problems with that I've experienced but I cannot go to it as wireless is the only way I have to connect.
Here is what my system.log looks like AFTER rolling it back with Archive & Install:
Jul 16 11:51:07 Macintosh kernel[0]: sleep
Jul 16 11:51:07 Macintosh kernel[0]: System Wake
Jul 16 11:51:07 Macintosh kernel[0]: Previous Sleep Cause: 5
Jul 16 11:51:07 Macintosh kernel[0]: EIR is not supported.
Jul 16 11:51:11 Macintosh kernel[0]: AirPort: Link Up on en1
Jul 16 11:51:11 Macintosh configd[34]: AppleTalk startup
there is NO Airport Beacon Lost as before, no connectivity problems. My daughter has a brand new white macbook she bought last week, she has a WRT54G Linksys and doesn't have any problems with connectivity, her boyfriend bought a 15" Pro at the same time, he upgraded to 10.5.3 he immediately started having problems (there IS a reason new ones come with 10.5.2), he rolled his back and it works again.
I've done this several times, apple may know about it but they haven't come out with any fix that I know about. I reported it to them the day 10.5.3 came out. I am not upgrading again until I see a patch that specifically says it addresses Airport reliability.
I don't run parallels, or any other virtual machine, hard enough keeping a vigrin OS up to date. The only 3rd party software I run is Firefox and Office 2004.

My mail signatures in Mac Mail, Yosemite, recently show "none" when I try to select among signatures, and it won't allow any selections

I'm using Mac Mail in Yosemite. Until recently all my email signatures were available, but now when I try to select any of them the signature panel shows "none" and doesn't allow me to select one. Any ideas how to restore them?

Hey Hey Thanks a lot!:) I was so frusterated with the problem that I didn't even look there..LOL! Thanks again.

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

TD
