Why can't I select my background display properties?

When I shut down my PC the other day it was working fine. When I restarted the next morning my wallpaper was all white. I was still able to display icons. but was not able to change the background. If I go into the display properties and select the Desktop tab, I can't select any of the circles, could anyone help please, thank you...

  • Why can I not use hidden or display point only to store the value for insertion?

    Hi, gurus:

    I have a question:

    I implemented a form with the region of report in a page, the update works OK, but the add function has a problem:

    There is a column, offender_ID, which is a foreign key to another table, it must not be null during insertion. However, even I pass the ID of the author of the offence of master page when user click on the button create and he did watch in the form, it must be a text tabled for insert success, why can I not use hidden or display point only to store this value for insert? (If I use hidden or display single element insert will be successful, apex reports I tried to insert a null value for the offender_ID column.)

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I think that both hidden and display elements have attributes that can cause problems because of different ways these function elements as the only non-display and feature no hidden items. The only items have a "Save Session State' yes/no 'control'? This can be a problem.

    Would you do that? Do these regular items instead and see if you can get those working. Then, we will try to change the fields back to hidden or display only.

    Congratulations. I'm glad you found the solution.

  • Why can I not make my background of the transparent sidebar the way where he was?

    After you have reinstalled Vista after a hard disk crash, I can't get the sidebar to have a transparent background, the way that it used to be under the original installation. It isn't even an option for this in the sidebar help/Setup. I don't think I made it transparent voluntarily last time - it is all automatic. Now, I can't make sure, evenintentionally.

    I am now using Windows 7.
    For 6 years I have been using Vista, I never activated Aero, not to mention transparency. Reason: huge consumption of resources and slow down the performance.

    Anyway, you are not supposed to activate the transparency first before you can see the sidebar with a transparent background?

    Here is the tutorial to activate the Areo glass transparency:

  • Why can I not select the entire Repeater object?

    I have a feeling that it is a simple question:

    I use a Mac Pro with 10.10.5 and AE 2015.0.1 Release.

    When I add a Repeater to a shape layer, I can not select the Group of repeated objects (via the bounding box) ('parent' and 'children').  It only allows me to choose the parent.

    I'm doing something wrong here?  Something uncontrolled?

    I want to create long shapes and manipulate in 3d, but I'd really rather not do the whole thing just to be able to elect the parent object.

    Change this behavior in CC. If you want to see all the layers in a selection box, then you must either wait for a update or work on the CS6. Because I saw blue, I thought that you have been affected by a change in behavior in CC or newer. Personally, especially when forms are complex, I find it easier to be able to discern the basic form so I can double click and edit just this form.

  • Why can I not edit my background layer?

    Hello!

    I ran an action (that I bought) on a photo.

    Then I downloaded on a slide show for my client to see.

    Now, she wants to buy it, so I need to reopen and edit the person's face.

    Which layer edit on?  Nothing changes when I'm working on the background layer. Well, I can see.  I can see it when I do the invisible layer.

    I have CS5.  I just changed to CS.  I remember this work on CS.

    Is that what you want to do, cloning & healing etc?

    Whatever it is, you need not to do it again. Here are some non-destructive options:

    1) there is usually a place in the the layer stack (IE, above the pixelated layers and adjustment layers below. In this case probably between the Local contrast and Compression of the range of layers) where you can insert a blank layer and clone it with the tool set "current & below".

    2) click on the background layer, then CMD + J (mac) to duplicate it and clone of the strike. (This may not be fully the effect according to the mode of these layers above it pixelated belnd, and what you're trying to do below.)

    3) go to the top layer, CMD + OPT + MST + E to make a layer of composite to the pf albums battery and work on or above strike.

    And if you want to work in a destructive way, drag the lock icon from the BG layer to the trash and work directly on it. But see the warnings from #2 above.

  • Why can I not select transparency flattening preset option when exporting to PDF?

    Hi all

    May have forgotten a few things so I didn't use this option for some time.

    In InDesign, under Edit > Aplatissements predefined transparencies, I created a new preset and included the ability to convert all text to outlines text.

    However, when I try to export to a PDF file, the option to select a transparency flattener preset is grayed out.

    Can you tell me what I do wrong? It drives me crazy! : ()

    (There was originally no transparency in the file, so I created some with a white square the value 0.5% opacity).

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Best regards

  • Why can I not select "no payment" even if my balance is $ 0

    Hello guys.

    I'm changing my region of the United States to the Viet Nam to download applications. I followed the instructions from the Web site below and I checked there was no invoice or the amount I have Apple so why couldn't change my payment to zero. Furthermore, I have no subscription and automatic membership renewal and sharing family. I enjoyed a lot for your time guys. Here are the instructions: view, change or cancel your subscription - Apple Support

    It's the history of the purchases which showed that I have a $0 balance in my account.

    It is account information.

    It's kind of payment in the United States

    And the types of payment after that I chose the Viet Nam region. (There was no "none" option)

    It is done to prevent people to arbitrarily change the iTunes Store countries. In addition, they must be in a country to download content from the iTunes Store for this country.

  • Why can I not select a different valid payment method when family shares the payment method is not valid?

    I am part of a family sharing account as my wife configuration. She chose the payment method is not valid, but I have another method of payment which is valid, but when I try to make a purchase, I thought that the paymemt on the part of the family is not valid. With my account, I should be able to choose an another valid payment method which is gone on the record and associated. And the organiser of the method of payment for the account on the part of the family should be notified so that they can solve the problem. Please Apple, improve the customer experience, so I can choose the valid payment option and make my purchase (a free app in this case).

    FYI, you talk about other users on these forums, not support nor Apple iTunes.

    With the family sharing only the map of the organizer can be used for purchases, or if you have a balance on your account that will be used - you can not use a card on your account for purchases: purchase family and payments - Apple Support

    2. What is the brand and model of the mp3 player?

    3. you see an error message? If Yes, what is the full and exact error message?

    4. were you able to sync the device on the computer before?

    5 does the MP3 player uses USB to connect with the computer?

    If the MP3 player uses USB, troubleshooting hardware and devices should detect the device. Once it is detected, you can go to Windows Explorer and check the available space.
