Magnification

[Fafnir06]

Helloa,
I've a week-old Macbook, and my magnification function stopped working.. its enabled in the dock setup, but it just doesn't work. Sometimes the bouncy program-launch function won't work either, and once or twice the magnification function worked and got stuck in the middle. The dock itself works, though, i can launch and close programs. Weird.. any thoughts?

A quick Google search came up with this thread on another forum.

though it looks like it was never solved.

Your mac is only a week old, I'd give Apple a ring.

Try repairing disk permissions.
If that doesn't work do a spotlight search for "com.apple.dock.plist" and drag it to your desktop. Then logout or restart.

Magnificatio

Thanks, Spook - now I have the other problem - the dock magnifies WHEREVER i move my mouse on the screen! It did so after I irritatedly clicked on the separator line in the dock.

drag the plist to the trash and empty.

What I said to do.
Delete the file "com.apple.dock.plist".
