Double clicking the button on the bottom of the iPhone gets me three different states. Running apps, keyboard, home. It's driving me kookoo. Is there a way to do a click and get running apps bar ONLY? Or is there some other way to set up the Running apps bar alone in one maneuver? jr

Double-click the button to get the runing apps bar - it needs to be a
fairly rapid double-click.

I double click the home button and get any of three screens
instead of one. Anyone got a solution? jr

If that doesn't help, take it to an Apple Store doe repairs.

The first AppleTV did have RCA connections.

We don't have Roku in Australia, but logically, i would think it wouldn't support AirPlay.

But then I could be wrong.

Just installed a new hard drive to 2011 Mini and installed fresh Snow Leopard onto it from Install dmg image.

When I select any mp3 file in Finder and press the Space bar, the file progresses (the progress bar indicator moves; the time counts down) but audio is silent. If I use any number of audio players to play the file (including iTunes) it sounds just fine.

Audio is fine in all applications even in Finder (the system beep is good and loud).

All other documents (PDF, movies) display just fine in Finder using Quick Look.

This was a problem when I was running SL from the old hard drive prior to purchasing & installing this new one. I was sure the problem was a corrupted SL and put off diagnosing until the new drive & SL was installed. I migrated settings, etc. from the old hard drive to the new one, but surely this wouldn't include OS components such as a corrupt QL?

Any ideas what is the cause of this problem?

OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard

Hallo,
I have files done in the 90's on Floppy disks, A lot are MIDI files used for arranging. I have an external floppy drive connected to my iMac.
Some of these disks will open and let me at the files so that I can transfer them. Many won't.
Does anyone know how to get floppy disks to read, or where I can take or send them to save the info on them.

Thanks for any help or info.
