My macbook pro's launchpad icons are not removing themselves when I delete the app from my applications folder like they used too. I have been using launchpad cleaner to get the stubborn buggers out of there. Im going mad because I rather like the launchpad feature.

i was just wondering when does apple usually do the laptop refresh with new hardware etc?

Sometimes I will be using Safari, particularly on Facebook, and Safari will randomly start refreshing the pages repeatedly over and over again without me doing anything. Anyone else have this problem? Any way to keep it from happening again? The only way I can get it to stop is by quitting Safari completely.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm running Lion on an 27" iMac (first i7 iteration), and have a folder on an external HDD that contains a couple of hundred subfolders.Â
However - when viewing them in Finder, only the first hundred or so display.Â
The others are there - searching the disc finds the folders and their contents and, once, the contents are located, they'll display in the expanded view.Â
I copied the offending folder across to the Mac's main HD, but this behaviour came across with it. This, by the way, was happening on Snow Leopard too before I upgraded to Lion.Â

My desktop keeps refreshing automatically. Even if I'm not doing anything on it, after about 1 minute, all of the icons will disappear then they all apear again like nothing happend. Nothing else seems affected by this, but if I have a Finder window open, it gets closed. When I am on another program and when it refreshes, it brings me onto the finder instead of program I am on, which gets annoying after a while. If I am trying to copy some files on the finder (like from one folder to another), when it refreshes, it stops the copying.

If I close all the windows, they all open again in their original arrangement. I've tried restarting. This is what console.log says

I will browse the internet, click back on a tab, and the site will refresh. Highly annoying for when you are streaming radio, music etc.If I am downloading, when the page refreshes, the download stops, so I have to start again.Â

I manage about 10 mac's here at work and would like to set up a user account for students. I am hoping that it is possible to setup a user account in such a way that any changes made whilst the student is logged in will be erased and refreshed for the next student.
I know that I can do this with the guest account but I've discovered that this is not suitable for what I need due to me not being able to create login items (specifically network volumes).
I've not done any scripting or anything like that but I was thinking of copying a script that would take a backup of the user's home directory upon login, then upon logout, the current home directory would be deleted and replaced with the backup that was taken earlier.
However, I'm guessing this will turn to poop if the student simply pulls the plug so I guess everything would have to be done upon login..
Is there any way to monitor this and find out which program is causing it? I don't use Limewire or any other type of file sharing software. Every once in a while I'll see a slight spike (between 500-800KB/S) in bandwidth for no real reason, then my IP gets blocked. How do I find out what's going on behind the scenes?

I like to open up news websites to get my news. I find a story I am interested in and click the link and read the story. The problem is that when I return to the front page of that website, Safari immediately refreshes the page and makes me wait a few seconds before I can click on another link I was interested in. It is extremely annoying to have to wait for a refresh everytime I go back to the page. Seems a lot worse after the 5.1.7 update.

I recently got a new computer for college. It is a a v.10.7.4, 15 inch, 2.4 GHz processor MacBook Pro, and has gotten all the most recent Software Updates. However, following my iPhoto 9.3 update, I noticed an issue. In Launchpad iPhoto appears twice, even though it is only one application.Â
iPhoto can be seen to the far-right in the second line and at the right of the bottom line. When I try clicking on them both it just leads me back to the same window. iPhoto only appears once in the Applications folder. getting the second photo to disappear?

I'm running MacOS 10.9.3 on a late 2013 MacBook Pro.On a few instances I've spotted that the icon on the dock is not changing to show that there are contents waiting to be zapped. On clicking on the icon the finder window does show the files, but the state change doesn't happen.Â

Every minute or so, the icons on my desktop dissapear and reappear in less than a second. It is almost as if something is crashing and restarting in the background. It would be that big of a problem, except that if I am working on a full screened app it slides me back to "Desktop 1" everytime that it happens.

So a while ago a bunch of new icons appeared in my launchpad(four pages worth). I clicked on a few and they didn't do anything, but am hesitant to mess around too much as I don't want to mess up my system. I've tried to find a way to hide them, but have come up short.

I just bought a Macbook Pro a couple of days ago and this is my first Mac. This may be a dumb question, but remember I'm new to Mac.I just installed a printer and it placed a folder on my desktop. It seems logical to me that this folder should be on Launchpad. Can/should I move this folder to Launchpad and if so, how?

In my launchpad shows two icons of "iPhoto" if you delete one later on, the icon appears again and now I find myself two icons of the same application. why? What should I do. I'm afraid that if I delete both, then I can not re-download the app from the Apple Store.

A while ago, my MacBook Pro started to randomly open launchpad in "Slow motion" when I am typing. Ever since then, my computer has been acting quite sluggish, and once my iTunes library disappeared. (Luckily I keep a backup, but that seems to have resolved itself.) I do not think that the opening launchpad thing is a hardware issue, mainly because of all of the other symptoms. One thing that I'm worried about is it might be the Flashback trojan, but I have not downloaded anything that would appear to be an Adobe update, and I did get the Java update. I am just curious about what it sounds like.

I have a MacAir running OSX 10.9.4 and just recently was given it by the school district I work in. Over the weekend, I took it into the Mac store because my apps were still updating with the old users Apple ID. The apple genius was able to fix this and reinstalled the most current iLife software fixing the problem. However, just yesterday I noticed that there is now a ? on my dock for iPhoto as well as on my Launchpad. In my launchpad, I had two iPhoto icons, so I deleted one, a few days prior to this happening thinking it was a duplicate, but now that the question mark is showing up for iPhoto, I'm wondering if I accidentally deleted the app entirely. If this is the case, how do I get it back??? I use iPhoto all the time for work and I'm wondering if this is something I can fix at home, or if I need to go back to the Mac Store.
