a8ne Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Anything I select now has this annoying border: What's worse is these duplications in the apple menu: What the heck did I do?

rohde Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Maybe some graphical artifact? What graphics adapter are you using at the moment? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11877-sudden-1045-weirdness/#findComment-74574 Share on other sites More sharing options...
a8ne Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 The same 6600GT I've been using for months. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11877-sudden-1045-weirdness/#findComment-74578 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackentangled Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 What the heck did I do? sorry, the pics made me laugh Maybe some graphical artifact? the first pic maybe but the second one is i don't think is a graphic artifact since some options are added like "force quit finder", i don't have that option and others are somehow duplicated like restart and shutdown...

rohde Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yeah, the extra options in the Apple menu seems like just that. Notice that one of the "Shut down" item has the elippses after it while the other does not. So clikcing the one without the ellipses probably just shuts down the computer instantly wihtout asking you for confirmation as it normaly does. You must have messed with some settings/preferences.

Bearcat Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 These appear if you have "VoiceOver" set to On in "Universal Access" preferences. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11877-sudden-1045-weirdness/#findComment-74590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackentangled Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 @a8ne maybe you could recall what you did before it became like that (software installed, system configurations through cocktail or tinkertool). as for the meantime, i'll try to mess with my sys prefs if i could achieve one like yours. These appear if you have "VoiceOver" set to On in "Universal Access" preferences. which one? the shadow on icon artifact or the duplicated options?

Bearcat Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Hooray! I hope you all get drunk enough to hit apple +F5 and live to tell the tale! Because Apple+F5 turns VoiceOver on and off.

blackentangled Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 ok, confirmed... it's what Bearcat said. go to sys prefs --> universal access --> turn off voice over... that's it!
