OS X :: Dock & Expose Gone As Well As Black Backgrounds In Text/dynamic Fields?
Feb 23, 2009
I installed the updates yesterday and restarted. Upon restart, the dock was gone. I went into the preferences, and made sure everything was correct with the settings. Also, the background image is going bezerk, changing every 3-4 seconds, even thought it's not set to do so. Expose is not working, the "Application Switcher" (cmd + tab, sorry, don't know proper name) is not working, and there is a strange black background in nearly every window.
Screenshot of what is happening is posted here:[URL]
Please note weird look of text on windows, and black backgrounds in the fields.
I've repaired permissions and restarted multiple times. i've never had this happen before...

I can tab between text entry fields, but it won't select ratio, checkboxes, or buttons. This seems to be universal, and not program specific?

"Resize at will.
Maybe the text field you're typing in is a bit too small to read. Or maybe you just have a lot to say. Either way, Safari lets you resize text fields on any website, just by grabbing the corner of the field. Resize a field and the web page reflows to make room."

Can anyone actually get this to work? I've never seen a website, Apple's included, that let's you do this feature. Yet it's listed on Apple's webpage.

I've been using Filemaker for years, but I've never had a need for anything too complicated - until now. I am in the midst of designing a vote database. I am hoping to find a way to have a choice made from a drop down menu that would define the text fields. I need this to be accurate as possible.

How do I get Safari to present auto-fill options in text fields like Firefox can.
Seems like a cookies thing but I think not because it presents me with all previous names I've used on other website's text fields before.
For example in Firefox if I go to sites I haven't visited before and I'm asked to type in my new username, as soon as I type the first letter, Firefox gives me options from previous text fields I've filled in before all over the net and unrelated to the site I'm on.

in the past week or so this minor problem began to occur. expose suddenly doesn't work, my hidden dock won't appear when I move my mouse to the bottom of the screen, when I move my mouse over my bookmarks in Safari, they don't "highlight" like usual, my mouse pointer arrow doesn't change to the "hand" when moving over links, etc. This is very strange, when I click Safari at the top of my screen I actually have to hold down the left click to scroll down to "preferences" or "quit" or whatever. i can't single click and just drag down. i have to actually click and hold.

Can I make it shorter so I don't have to hold click in for so long? (Dock expose - shows your open windows for that app)

I have difficulty distinguishing between active windows and inactive windows because the title text for both is a shade of gray. How can I theme OS X Lion to use black text scrollbar, and controls for active windows; gray for inactive windows? I am tired of having to click on a window to ensure that it is active.

Google SketchUp uses a Safari web dialog window for the Dynamic Components feature. After installing the update that was pushed out around May 14-ish, the text boxes in the web dialogs have a black background, making them essentially unusable. There is text in the text boxes, but it's black too.

I've been having a pretty annoying problem with my Canon i560: When printing black text, instead of using the black ink, the printer mixes black from the color inks. This has been a problem for a little while but recently, the colors got a little offset so it became really obvious. Also, I just received an update for the Canon printer drivers and according to the Apple page, the Canon i560 is supported and the drivers are actually updated I'm pretty sure that it's a driver problem because I can print from a Windows virtual machine to the exactly same printer all other variables remaining the same - and guess what: When printing from Windows, black is black, colors are colors, as one would expect with this kind of printer.

This does a Google search with the text you drop onto the icon.
Not sure if this is new with Safari 5 or has always been there.

I recently tried to download a free trial of World of Warcraft for Macs but instead screwed up the display settings on my Macbook (version 10.6.4 OS X). I removed it from the computer when the game didn't play, it just gave a black screen, at which point I had restarted the computer to find text sizes magnified, the display setting changed so the whole screen wasn't being used, etc. I was able to change the screen display size no problem but cannot figure out how to make the icons and text in boxes such as applications in the dock, or system preferences folder smaller. Is there a way, without reinstalling the operating system, to reset these minor settings? I could live with the changes but would rather not.

Aperture 3.5.1 on iMac11,3 (Core i7, 2.93GHz, 16GB RAM) and OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)Â
Son's Eagle Project. Set up GroPro to snap a pic every 10 seconds. Now have 3,000+ photos in Aperture, in slideshow with most running at 1/10th second. Added text annotations.Â
In Aperture - plays perfectly.Â
Once exported - 75% through the video, screen goes black EXCEPT that the annotations I've made are retained - so occasionally a timestamp or comment appears on an otherwise black screen.Â
I've tried multiple export formats, no difference. Am now resorting to inserting timestamp slides between pictures to see if somehow there is a corrupted image that is causing the video export to fail.Â
Have replicated problem after a reboot with nothing of substance other Aperture running.Â

It's been awhile, I used Leopard back when it first came out and I remember the only way back then was to change the .PNG files... but I don't remember where the location is and I don't have those files anymore. I'm not trying to make it 2D, I'd like to retain the 3D look but with black glass. What's the best solution? Forgive me too, I tried searching but the keyword "dock" is in about 30 million threads.

I don't know if apple may be tweaking the look of forthcoming Leopard point releases, but this pic on the Apple Mac page has me wondering. It is definitely NOT the stock dock color and even contrasts with another pic on the same page.

I saw the black folder that it comes with in the dock of a computer in my local Apple store and thought it looked really good. But now I'm trying to do this myself and when I drag the folder to the dock, it changes it to some other blue folder with an icon sticking out of it. It'll also only let me drag it to the side of the dock with the trash can.

If anyone has a Playstation 3, you'll know what I'm talking about. I think they're mostly made in Java Applet. Slow moving backgrounds that can change color by the time of day or year. I would love to use something like that for my MacBook. Like a real slowmotion waterfall in black and white. Or a realtime sunset and sunrise.

So I did the EFI firmware update and now my dynamic switching is broken. I cannot watch any video on the internet in fullscreen that has a 480p or lower resolution. Whenever I switch to fullscreen, the video becomes extremely choppy. This, of course, happens because the graphics card does not switch from Intel to nVidia. I'm on a 17'' Core i7 Macbook Pro.

Having discovered spaces as a result one of the threads down below and loving them, we wonder if it is possible to have a different desktop picture in each space? Done a few searches, know widgets won't go, but you might be able to "customize" the space a bit... Don't know why, but would just like to if I could.

Ever since I upgraded to 10.7.3, my mid-2010 cannot connect to to internet via Ethernet any more (wireless works fine).Â
Basically, the Network utility GUI shows that a correct IP address has been assigned via DHCP, but I get no internet.Â
If I now check the output of 'ifconfig', I see 'en0' having a local IP address assigned, i.e. 192.168.1.1 or similar.Â
Seems like a software bug of some sort. Is it getting fixed in 10.7.4?
