• Does not open the system preferences of the Apple menu

  Anyone know of a good solution for this?

  A few weeks ago I started noticing that I couldn't open my application system preferences in the Apple Menu bar (via the Apple logo > system, or via the WiFi icon Preferences > network, or even Preferences by right-clicking on the desktop to change the desktop background, etc.).

  WHAT WORKS:

  I can open the system preferences if I click directly on the application icon or you try to open it from the dock.

  I can open the app in the Apple menu if I register as another user.

  WHAT DOES NOT WORK:

  The problem does not go away when I restart in mode 'start '.

  The problem does not go away when I run disk utility.

  The problem does not go away when I remove the "Finder" and "System Preferences".plist file in the Preferences folder in the user's library.

  The problem does not go away when I remove the files "Preferences panel" bury of the Cache in the user's library folder.

  The problem does not go away when I zap the PRAM.

  The problem does not go far if I replace the system preferences application from a recent backup.

  I was about to just try and re-install the MacOS, but thought I would try the forums first, since the Apple Support site said that it should not be necessary if the problem is only limited to a user's profile. I found a lot of entries in the forums for this issue dated a few years ago and have tried most of the solutions, but I don't think that you can repair the permissions of the disc more on El Capitan.

  Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

  Given all of the things you tried that don't work, over time it would take to troubleshoot more, you could restore OS X in 45 minutes to an hour on a broadband connection using OS X Recovery.

  Start your Mac while pressing the command + R keys. From there, you should be able to access the built in utility to verify and repair the disk from startup (if necessary) and OS X using OS X recoveryof restoration.

• Turn the off "Stop" in the Apple menu?

  The power button on my MacBook Pro mid-2009 no longer works. I accidentally closed my Mac and would not restart. After searching the Web, I finally managed to restart it short-circuited something inside the computer. I would like to disable "Shut Down" in the Apple menu, so he won't be stopped by chance. Is this possible? If so, how do you?

  Hello

  It is possible, but by modifying the system files can be dangerous. First of all, make sure that you have a backup of your Mac.

  Here are some links that may interest you:

  Also, if I may give you some advice, would be better to replace your power button rather than play with the motherboard everytime your computer turns off...

  Happy tweaking!

• Software update in the Apple Menu

  Update of OS X Mavericks a week ago.  My printer Photosmart C4750 print however, the following message has been displayed - "you must install the software to use this printer.  To install the software, choose software update from the Apple menu.  If the software for your printer is not available in software update, contact the manufacturer of your printer. »

  Apple has no update of the HP printer software.  I went to the HP download site and I quote:

  "NOTE: If you have recently updated your computer with the mavericks a previous Mac OS, there is no need to install additional software."  Send a print job from your computer, and if the printer prints, you don't need to continue these steps. »

  Again, the printer works but the "error message" about having to install the software is not going away.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  First restart your Mac, try resetting the printing system and check to see if that can help you:

  * Be aware that reset the printer system will eliminate any existing queue and reset all custom settings driver.

  Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
  Select Printer & Scanner.
  Right click (or Ctrl + click) your product with the Printers list in the left panel and then click on reset printing system.
  Click OK to confirm the reset.
  Type your user name and password.
  Click OK. The printing system resets.

  Now, try to add the printer again and check for the difference.

  If the same behavior persists, try to install the following package and check any changes:

• In Media Center Chess Titans, how can I remove the 3 Menu buttons up (game vs man, play Vs computer, exit) while I'm playing?

  In Media Center Chess Titans, how can I remove the 3 Menu buttons up (game vs man, play Vs computer, exit) while I'm playing?

  While I play Chess Titans (Media Center Version, full screen), there are 3 buttons on the top while I play (game vs man, play Vs computer, exit).  These buttons are boring because there is no need of them.  Make a right click on the screen offers these options.  In addition, when you regularly play Chess Titans (not the Version of Media Center and windowed screen), these 3 buttons do not exist.

• Missing icons in preferences in the Apple menu

  I have an end 2013 27 "iMac 3.5 GHz I7 with 3 tb drive of Fusion in OS X 10.11.4

  When I try to open my system preferences in the Apple dropdown menu all that get is an empty box named system preferences and the icon in the dock looks like a text file icon.

  If I right click on the icon in my dock while the empty box is open, I can click on anything whatsoever that I'm willing to do.

  Now if I open system preferences in the applications folder in the finder, it opens and looks as it should without any problems at all...

  I'm stumped...

  I tried to fix the permissions, but that did not help.

  Please read this message before doing anything.

  This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

  Step 1

  The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is localized to your user account.

  Select the feedback connections* and log in as a guest. Do not use the Safari connection only 'user comments' created by 'find my Mac '.

  While signed in as a guest, you will have access to your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you use them for the first time. Do not be alarmed by this behavior; It's normal. If you need any password or other personal information in order to complete the test, save, print, or write them before you start.

  Test while signed in as a guest. Same problem?

  After testing, log on to the guest account and in your own account, disable it if you wish. The files that you created in the guest account will be automatically deleted when you log out of it.

  * Note: If you have enabled 'find my Mac' or FileVault, then you cannot activate the guest account. The login 'User comments' created by 'Find my Mac' is not the same. Create a new account to test and delete it, including his home folder, after testing.

  Step 2

  The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is caused by changes in the system of third party that load automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

  Please take this step regardless of the results of step 1.

  Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. Same problem?

  After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of steps 1 and 2.

• Have a new Macbook and remove the Apple Photo app

  Hello

  I have a new Macbook (El Capitan running) and I use another software Apple Photo of photo editing app. I would like to remove this app from my Mac.

  The programs that I use (affinity and ACDSee Pro 3 for Mac) are not allowed to access the photo library. And anyway I prefer to develop my own photo/file sequence.

  So, I would get around Photo and picture library altogether.

  I would like suggestions.

• How to remove the context menu buttons?

  Hello

  I have a pretty annoying problem. I have installed GNU Emacs and Emacs W32 some time ago, but spent to vim. However, in the menu context (context menu) for any file text (.txt, .c or .java) it is always an option called "Edit with Emacs." Now, obviously I no longer use Emacs and uninstalled several months ago. However, I can't get rid of this option in the registry. When I click on it now it opens the 'Open with' instead.
  Anyone know how to remove this option from the context menu?
  Thank you!

  Take a look at the app ShellMenuView. See http://www.techspot.com/guides/210-edit-windows-extended-context-menu/ for instructions and download.

• How can I remove the Apple one of the 5s 2 phones in order to separate the two that have been synchronized for 2 years, ID also pay 2 to 1 TB of space iCloud that is synchronized on both, how separate it so

  How to delete & recreate ID Apple on 2nd-5 used by my son? Separate lines, using the same Apple ID. Also, I pay for 1 to iCloud space used by two phones, can it be "assigned" or separate?

  Howdy Dereck,

  This looks like what you want to do, is to have your son to use his own Apple ID, rather than your own, because there is currently, on his iPhone. Is this fair?

  It is recommended that each user has their own Apple ID. This makes sure the property of purchased items, such as music and apps, goes to the person using them. It keeps your privacy, so that emails, messages, and passwords are available for the person who has to do. See this article for more information - use your own Apple for sharing the family ID. In particular.

  Avoid sharing an Apple ID

  If you share the same Apple ID with a member of the family to iTunes & App Store purchases, some services will treat you like the same person. You can see these and other questions:

  • Family membership Apple music: rather than receive your own membership with your own library, you will share a library and recommendations with the other Member of the family.
  • iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases: If the family sharing is already stopped, the owner of the common Apple ID will keep all purchases. You may lose access to everything in the account, including all purchases that you have launched.
  • IBooks and iTunes u Podcasts: Podcast episodes, bookmarks, and iTunes U course could synchronize according to the preferences of the other Member of the family or deleted accidentally.

  So, you will need to create an Apple ID for your son, if you don't have already done. If it is less than 13 years of age, this should be done by using the share of the family. See this article - family sharing and Apple ID for your child. Older children and adults can create an Apple by following the steps in this article - ID create and start using an Apple ID. IMPORTANT - If your son already has an Apple ID of hers, do not create one for him.

  Once the Apple ID for your son was created, he will want to enter important places on his iPhone. This article tells about all locations, you may need to change the ID in use on this phone Apple - where can I use my Apple ID?

  Your iCloud account is intended for an Apple ID.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  Best for you.
