[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1266752, member: 38864"] A fair point, but only the OP can really answer if he has a problem with his eyesight. His post does suggest though that this hasn't always been a problem for him. If it truly hasn't been, then something is amiss. Heck, part of the troubleshooting may require an eye exam. ;) Now that you mention it, it seems it didn't work for me on occasion years in the past. I use and prefer CMD-W myself and have for some time, so that's a little fuzzy. I still use the yellow button to minimize quite a bit (yes, I know of CMD-M) and never have an issue. Unless the close button is the only one subject to not working correctly, then it would seem that this bug is squashed. Back to the OP though… any problems with the other buttons? Which version of OS X and what model Mac are you using? When the mouse is over the button correctly, then the button colors should change in their tone a bit and display [B]X[/B], [B]-[/B], and [B]+[/B] signs. If you are having this problem on multiple Macs, I'm inclined to agree with Chas. Take note of my signature also... [/QUOTE]
