The built-in Movies widget from Apple (that shows movie posters as a slide show on one side and theaters/times on the other side) has suddenly stopped working. I tried to quit and reopen from Dashboard, move the widget out of the main library's widget folder, reinstalling by double clicking on it, removing preferences, deleting system cache, history, repairing permissions, copying the widget from another computer: nothing worked. The rounded rectangular window simply shows 'No movie data available' and clicking on it does not make it flip as it normally should.

Therefore, it is just sitting there on the dashboard, not showing anything other than the sentence above, and cannot be customized. I can open several of these Movies widgets simultaneously and none works nor flips.
I cannot think of anything that might have made it stop working (my internet is OK, not a firewall issue). Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Do you ever get frustrated of going into Dashboard every time you want to access a widget with important information? There’s good news – w ith a simple Terminal command and the click of the mouse you can have any widget you like run outside of the Dashboard. Please note however that the widget will always be the front most window, so be aware that it may block content from other windows depending on where you place it. To locate Terminal simply navigate to your Applications Utilities and within the Utilities folder you will locate Terminal. Then simply enter the following then press the return key: defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES Then enter the following then press the return key: killall Dock You’ll also need to enter System Preferences, navigate to Mission Control settings, and make sure “Show Dashboard as a Space” is NOT checked.
Now when you go to your Dashboard (by pressing function+f12 on Apple’s wireless keyboard), you can now click the widget, and hold that click while using the Dashboard shortcut once more. The widget you clicked on will now remain visible, even though the rest of the widgets disappear. You can continue working in any application, and the widget will stay put.
Should you wish to put the widget back into the dashboard all your need to do is click on the widget and hold then press F4 to launch dashboard and upon letting go of the mouse you will notice that the widget in question will pop back into the dashboard at that point in time. Should you wish to completely disable this feature just go back to Terminal and enter the following: defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode NO Then enter the following then press the return key: killall Dock That’s all there is to it!
