Posted.Edited.Did something wrong as I can't get -Reply to Topic off my screen?
 
I'm a little lost. Can you please add more detail to the problem and when it occurs.
 
Black bar across screen reads,BladeForums.com:The Leading Edge of Knife Discussion-Reply to Topic and can't get it off my screen!
 
I'm not sure I understand the problem even now, but the first thing to try when anything weird happens with a computer is to reboot. Shut it down, wait at least ten seconds (for it to cool) and start it again. Come back to Bladeforums and if the problem is gone just chalk it up to the inscrutability of computers.
 
Did that twice earlier.Shut off,rebooted.No help.It's like an icon across screen but can't move it into trash or anything.Stays there constantly.
 
It happened after I posted.First one I ever edited.Hope that helps.Leatherbird.
 
Hmm ... bad video memory? I think we need a geekier geek than me to solve this one. With any luck one will arrive any minute now.

At what point in the rebooting process does that appear on your screen?

I'm going to move this thread to Gadgets & Gear with redirect so it'll show in both forums. I'll change the title to "Need Help with Computer Problem" too. That should attract the geeks.
 
As soon as I reboot and start up it's there.When I leave BladeForums or go to Email or anywhere it's just like an icon across the middle of my screen. What to do,what to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
 
Sounds like you need to clear out the cookies.


Clearing your cookies in IE

1. Open IE

2. Tools>Delete Cookies>Hit OK when the new screen pops up.

3. Go back and hit Delete Files> Check off "Delete all offline content?"

4. Restart IE
 
Probably have to contact Professor Hawkins.Did everything even restarted again.Don't know.It's a new MAC OSX.We'll see what happens.Leatherbird.
 
A Mac with a problem? This brings a joyful tear to my eye.... ;)

Hope you get it fixed. I'm no help whatsoever....

Think I'm being hacked by Pentagon and there just leaving BladeForums icon on my screen to piss me off!
 
Did you do any playing around with your desktop picture? That would be in System Preferences under Desktop and ScreenSaver.

IT'S GONE.As quickly as it appeared it has disappeared.I thought I was going to have to wear it as a permanent tattoo on my screen.I was gone for a while came home.Went online to BF .BF icon was still on my screen but computer started smoking,hidden door on side of computer slid open and a steel cable tentacle came out wrapped around a mini fire extinguisher sprayed back of computer,was directed by Apple to reboot and my tattoo was lasered off.Mac Power I guess.Thanks everyone.Leatherbird.
