Anyone know why my weather widgets would move down 20-30 pixels from time to time on their own? I have two of them in the top left corner of my dashboard, and they seem to move down on the screen. I can't figure out when it's happening, it might be correlated with rebooting or something, but I'm not sure. My other widgets stay put, the weather widgets just seem to want to, well, go south.
View 24 RepliesI know there are some other threads on this, but none seem to have a definitive answer. So this issue happened on my previous MacBook Pro with Leopard and then again with Snow Leopard. Now, it's happening again on my brand new 27" iMac. Every time I restart and bring up the dashboard, my weather widget loads and then jumps down a quarter of an inch or so on the screen. How can I stop this from happening and why hasn't Apple fixed this after 2 years?
View 17 Replies View RelatedSo I like to set up my dashboard with 3x weather widgets, since we have microclimates here where I live and iStat pro to monitor the system.
The problem is, the weather and iStat widgets like to move when I open up dashboard. When it refreshes, the position gets somewhere else, usually lower or upper. I have to 'killall Dock' to refresh the dashboard to its original position.
Is there any way to turn webclip widgets into normal widgets or standalone apps? With or without a 3rd party app or enhancement?

View 4 Replies View RelatedPrior to Lion, if I clicked on my Dashboard, my widgets would all appear "floating" on the desktop. Post-Lion, if I click on Dashboard, my widgets appear on a separate screen with a blank background. Is there any way to get the widgets back to "floating" on the desktop. (I'm sure floating is not the technical term.) I don't have a ton of widgets -- just the basics. I need the calculator widget to appear on the desktop so I can use it when looking at a spreadsheet. (It's not an urgent issue, except that I am working on my taxes -- and it would make life easier.) I am very new to Lion, installed only a couple weeks ago. Running Lion 10.7.3

Suddenly I find that when I right click all my dashboard widgets appear on screen. I would like to revert to the system where I could right click and then choose things like attach, save etc etc.

Feature request to consider turning the old dashboard into a fullscreen notification center with multiple columns and grid-based resizing of widgets.
Let users decide what the launchpad/dashboard/F4 key would act like.
The upper right corner notification center button. One click for sidebar, two clicks for full screen notifications center.
Right now the old dashboard is pretty much useless with its ancient widgets. And launchpad is rather useless with the new Yosemite Spotlight.

I recently purchased Final Cut Pro X to edit GoPro videos to share with my friends and family on YouTube. I'm shooting and editing in 1080p @ 60 fps. My experience had gone pretty well, going through the intro screen, introducing each of my cousins and my brother. I had started to fiddle around with keyframes to have the text follow their faces for a cool effect I saw in a video once, and it looked pretty good, but I found it to be incredibly time consuming. So when it got to my part of the intro, I wanted to see if I could try to spice things up and have the effect where you freeze frame shots of yourself at different points in an activity. Well since we shot it all by hand, the shot is incredibly shaky, so I had to try to negate the shakiness by freezing the frame in one area, and it looks good, but took me forever to get the frames right. So now my idea was to just copy the same keyframes I had from before to the next photo, and the next, and so on. But once I figured out the timing, I realized that the image of me is just slightly positioned to the left of where I actually should be. Here's the problem, whenever I try to drag that photo around screen to where my body actually is, it just moves the one, single keyframe, not the whole segment of upwards of 200 individual keyframes I had placed.

It started recently, and I've had this Mac Pro (10.6) for several years. Sometimes, when I move a window, it doesn't redraw the screen *under* it properly, leaving my screen completely messed up. Activating Dashboard (temporarily) fixes it (causes a correct re-draw of everything), and sometimes taking a screengrab fixes it - the display looks correct underneath the area I am selecting for screengrab. A reboot fixes it also, for a while. Sometimes a Firefox window goes completely black, for some seconds, then comes back; haven't noticed that for any other programs' windows. I have 4 monitors connected to this Mac and a bunch of internal drives, but everything was very stable until recently.

When dragging a file into a folder window which is partially off the bottom of the screen, OS X will slide it up so that the whole thing is in view. I can't tell you how many times I've dragged something into the wrong folder because suddenly there's a different folder underneath my cursor. Is there any way to turn this off? It does not suit my workflow at all.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 4 weather widgets (the standard one that came with OS X). And after a restart, some of them have gone up a bit, or down. So as you can imagine with 4 of them, it can get unorganized if I don't move them back to their original positions.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI Recently purchased a Mac Pro and I am considering interfacing it to a Weather Station. Almost every Weather Station touts PC compatibility and about 1/3 interface Mac's. But after reading the reviews on them... I am under the impression that many users have run aground and encountered problems attempting to interface them to a Mac or PC. Anyone here have first hand experience interfacing a modern Weather Station to a Mac via one of the USB ports?

I just installed Geektool and added the date and weather to my desktop, but everything won't refresh (ex. my clock is stuck at 7:18 when its 8:10). I've tried manually setting the refresh rate to 1 second, but it send my CPU and memory usage soaring. I had it working perfectly before I added the Weather.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI haven't seen the sun all day. Not only that, but I can hear thunder, see lightning and judging by the very dark shade of the clouds around my house, I can pretty much say it's damn sure about to start pouring. What I'm getting at is that this widget has shown nothing but sunshine all day and all night tonight. The temperatures seem to be close, but that's about it. Just curious if anyone else noticed any inaccuracy with this Accuweather widget.
