As inspired by EVH's comment on someone's help thread, I've decided to create this thread for all Mac users to post their problems/encounters whilst using their Mac OS / Software and allow an "under one thread" problem solving help thread. (For Hardware issue, click here)

Here's how to use it;

1) Identify your problem
2) Read/search this thread for similar problem
3) If not answered or not found post Problem or Encounter before typing your problem as fully as possible.
4) Wait patiently for the next few posters to reply/answer your problem.

Posters answering questions must quote the problem post and reply with Answer - this allows user to quickly spot the "Problem" and "Answer" in your post, instead of reading random comment/spam when people quoting the issue/problem.

e.g.
Dr Pharmacology said:
Problem
I can't find the # button...

Answer
Option+3


NOTE
Please refrain from posting/quoting unless you're answering the Problem - it is common courtesy to thank if problem is solved but 30 thank you will cost this thread 1 page and push problems/answers away from the much needed n00b
You are however, allowed to quote and correct the Answer if it is wrong / incorrect.

Hope this thread will come in useful:)

Problem

Why is that there? It only appeared after a taskbar restart - due to an update with You Control Tunes - but there is no options to turn that off in the app - searched CD/DVD on system and no such option either.
 
Yes, but it's a part of You Control Tunes which ultimately controls iTunes, so I would imagine it has the same use as the forward/back/pause buttons, and was probably added by the update you mentioned previously.

I've checked - even turning off you control tunes - that eject button remains. There's no options in YCT to edit and I can edit all the buttons to different "shapes and colour" but that eject button remains - anyone with YCT can correct me if they have the same thing?

Edit: Did a system restart in the end, it disappeared. Weird...

I thought you could drag the accounts to the order you wished them to be displayed?

Topmost being the default account.

By default, Mail uses the last viewed account as the account used when composing an email, e.g. if I use my work place email last time, that will be my "default" till I manually change it - eventhough my order is .mac being first and work account being last.
