Apple :: How To Move The Active App On The Screen With Shortcuts

Dec 14, 2009

How do I move the active app on the screen with some keyboard shortcuts?

I really need some application that will move my windows where I want right away, resizing them at the same time.

My specific scenario is: I use an external 27" LCD with the MBP; I keep connecting and disconnecting the laptop over a day at work several time.

The problem is: I set up a window to be "that big" and to be on "that" part of the display, I set up other windows next to the first one (usually all documents, need to compare them side by side) and it looks and works fine on the big screen, but when I disconnect they are not keeping the side-by-side position (smaller of course, to fit on the 15" MBP display).

My wish: to press something like Ctrl+1 to move the active window to position 1,1 on the screen, with the windows size of 960 & 600; Ctrl+2 to move the active window to position 961, 1, with the size of 960x600. This way I would get the 2 windows side by side really easy.

I found several apps doing this(and much more) for Finder, but nothing for any window of any application that runs on Mac ...

I have no idea how hard is to code this on a Mac, fairly new with Macs; but I am ready to purchase a small utility that will accomplish those tasks ..

Apple :: MBP 13"Windows 7 And Key Shortcuts

Oct 8, 2009

need of a new notebook, and I'm thinking about trying out Apple for once. But the funny thing is that because of work I plan to run Windows 7 x64 almost exclusively on the MBP.

Before you think "no point in getting a Mac" or something, I've thought this out.

But what I can't figure out...is how to you install Windows 7 x64. I've read that x64 doesn't have driver support and/or there are problems with x64 and EFI. I also can't figure out how I would go 'Home' or a 'Page Up' or a 'Page Down' or to the 'End' from within Windows 7. 'Delete' and 'Backspace' are a concern too, but I seem to have found out how to do that already. I live by these keys (yes, I'm a PC ) and I need them.

The company I work for just gave me a new Thinkpad T440P and I have a screen Brightness problem. the shortcuts on the keyboard doesn't work with or without the fn button and the brightness gauge doesn't show up in the power options too.

Someone suggested to that I should download and install the latest Intel HD Graphics Driver for Windows 7 from the support page [URL] ...  but after the installation ended a pop up on my screen said that my Laptop doesn't have the minimum requirements for this driver! so who come it's in the drivers section for this model?

Acer :: Number Lock Should Active On Boot Up?

Oct 18, 2008

Acer 17" notebook Aspire 9425WSMi. Vista Home Prem SP1.

How do I get this PC to always start up with the Number Lock on/active? Given that the PC has a full size keyboard, it is a nuisance to always have to manually activate.

There does not appear to be any option in the BIOS settings that I have been able to access at startup.

HP/Compaq :: HP Dv6500t Running Windows 7 RC With 2 Active Users

May 11, 2009

I'm getting a strange problem on my dv6500t with my dual booted Windows 7 RC install (same issue with the Beta). My searches have been inconclusive.

Using W7 as one user is fine, but if I leave one user logged in and switch user accounts, things start acting wierd...Anti-virus fails to start (I've uninstalled AV and the rest still occur)Can't use the IE button on the task barIE doesn't log in to some websites (e.g. AOL mail)slowness Lots of permanent window and menu artifact ghosting that only clears after logging out This only happens when 2 users are logged in at one time... one user works just dandy.

I'm just suspicious of my HP... the friggen thing crashes on me enough or doesn't resume from hibernate/sleep so I'm not confident in the crap.

Lenovo C/E/K/M/N/V Series :: V570 Active Protection System On Windows 8

Feb 28, 2013

I was trying to find the Active Protection System software for Win8 for while now, it's just not coming up anywhere. I really need to disable the disc freezing feature on my V570 cause it's super annoying (especially when watching videos).

Whether the software is available? I've tried the Win7 version, but there are some compatibility issues, so it doesn't work....

Also, if the software is not available yet for Win8, are there other ways of turning this thing off (BIOS, registry)???

On my Windows 7, APS works well with an icon on the system tray. But in Ubuntu (13.04), because of no driver, I dont know if APS works or not. The question is: does it still work silently without the driver on Ubuntu?If APS doesn't work, is my laptop harmed when it's shaken? Does Lenovo have any solution to get ASP worked on Linux (Ubuntu)?

This has just started to happen when booting in normal mode. I am currently typing in Safe mode as it doesn't freeze.

In normal mode the PC may or maybe not work for a while then it will freeze, I can still move the mouse cursor but nothing can/will be selected. I had task manager running and CPU was high load but not 100% and RAM wasn't maxxed either but an svchost.exe is taking around 50% CPU when idle

HP 15 Lockups :: Touchpad Won't Move When Press Any Number

Sep 21, 2014

I own an HP 15 and i recently downloaded a game. when I opened the game and tried to play I was unable to press any button on my keyboard and move my touchpad at the same time. An example is that I was playing a first person shooter and i was unable to walk forward and aim at the same time. The touchpad would not let me aim unless i would stop moving (not pressing the w key.) I figured it was the numlock being enabled but after spending 2 or 3 hours searching on how to turn off the numlock such as using the on screen keyboard and using a combination of fn+ another key and I still have not succeeded in finding out what the problem is.

Dell :: Mouse Pointer Will Continue To Move In A Direction On Its Own

Oct 4, 2009

I've noticed that sometimes after using the pointing stick for a while that if I let go, the mouse pointer will continue to move in a direction on its own.

It will only last for a few seconds but it is annoying when trying to scroll through documents and such. Is this a touchcheck problem or a driver problem? Or is it hardware?

Dell :: M1330 Battery Failed Can I Move Pagefile To E:?

Jan 27, 2009

Our M1330's 6-cell battery warned recently that it needed replacing soon (was at something like 67% original capacity).

I turned off the warnings and hoped it would last sometime longer but now the system thinks no battery is connected and the battery's self-test LEDs do not illuminate at all.

I am not sure how easily I can get a new battery shipped to Africa and we have frequent power cuts (the system is on a surge protector which drops the power when it goes out. Usually a generator cuts in within 10 seconds to restore power but the surge protector refuses to provide power for about 5 mins).

So I need to change from using Standby to using Hibernate. Trouble is little disk space and no hibernate file left.

Sony :: I Miss The PgUp And PgDn Key! Anyway To Change And Move Fn Key?

May 21, 2009

I was wondering if anyone here knows how to somehow customize or some tricks to perform PgUp and PgDn key without having to press on Fn? because when I'm reading an article,

it's very troublesome to always use two hands left for the Fn key and right for the PgDn key everytime I wanted to go to the next screen.

It would be nice to move the Fn key to the right closer to the PgUp and PgDn key, so at least I only need to use my right hand to skip to the next screen.

Dell Latitude 6430u :: Suddenly Goes To Sleep When Move It

Jan 24, 2015

I have a Latitude 6430u.

When I try to move this laptop around or bump it just right it suddenly goes to sleep. When I say bump it I mean like having it on your lap and moving around to get comfortable will cause it to do this. Sometimes when you move it from your lap to a table it will just go to sleep.

I have removed and reseated the battery several times, no change.

I have run the online diagnostics, no issues found.
