10.9.4 update breaks midi!

After doing the 10.9.4 update all my midi controllers (3) are not available anymore!
When looking in audio/ midi settings every midi controller has the status offline, with no option to re-enable.
Tried new configuration and rescan but nothing turns up!!!

  • What are the things 10.6.8 update break?

    After the 10.6.8 update I am having so many issues,
    first, the %100 cpu usage of dock, disabled parallels, and now it is ok,
    then, a reboot and I am unable to login, I enter my password, it begins the login process, then logs me out,
    if I persist, it logs me in after a couple of tries, but each time a few of my applications are missing at random, and the environment is very very unstable, sometimes I see no desktop background, sometimes I start firefox and I am logged out again.
    I've seen some people suggesting removal of login items to resolve a similar but not the same issue, so I'm inclined to think overall, there is an issue with some applications which 10.6.8 update breaks.
    For starters my login items are:
    GrowlHelper
    Geektool
    EyeTv Helper
    Canon IJ Network scanner
    ituneshelper
    Magicprefs
    Sophosuiserver
    Does anyone have any problems with any of these?
    I only verified the parallels desktop 6 issue up to now.

    Actually it is not-so-permitted to remove sophos for this machine, but I did it anyhow. No problem so far, but lack of evidence is not evidence of being lack of something so I am not adding it to the list yet

  • Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    You already seem to know what the issue is, it is the parallax feature that was added to iOS 7.  From your rant, it appears that your attempt to work around this was not successful.  According to the Apple documents I've seen, they recommend that you enlarge your image (not reduce it).  Make your image have excess space on all sides, which is not displayed on the screen.  This way, when you tilt your device one direction or another, it can shift the image to give the appearance of 3D. 
    As a photographer, I like to use the full frame of my images, but I also know that I need to leave room around the image as well.  I have some photos I have taken that I can't use because I have them cropped too tightly too, but I have others that work just fine.  Just remember that part of the image file is "off screen" so that if iOS has to shift the image up it has some image that can scroll onto the screen.  It needs this space on all sdes, so just make youre images larger, and keep in mind that a portion on each side will be outside the normally visible screen...  If you don't like this feature, you can always go into the settigns and turn it off.

  • Mac OSX 10.4.8 Update Breaks Raid Striping -- System will no longer boot

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie from the PC world with a Mac Pro. For the last 8 hours I've been trying to get a Raid-0 configuration to work with no success.
    The Raid array constructs ok and the system boots. Once that's done the Software Update screen arrives and I would select install all... then the machine would not boot. I get a Grey Shade like affect and the message to power off and restart. Powering off does nothing.
    So I started again for the Nth time and added each Software Update individually. All loaded and rebooted successfully until the 10.4.8 Update.
    As soon as that loads, installs and restarts the machine will not boot.
    I called Apple's Tech Support and they told me they do NOT support RAID on this machine. I said what are you talking about. They put me on hold talked to a supervisor and came back with the same story. I just don't get it...
    So anyone have any insight and advice on why the update breaks my Raid-0? What can I do to get over the problem (I'd like to have the RAID...)?
    Thanks for the assistance.
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Yes, you needed an emergency boot drive anyway to repair your RAID boot drive. Just use the same one in addition to a working clone or backup of your regular system.
    Apple made it easy to install or update security updates and system updates from an alternate drive (but you will have to use the stand-alone (combo preferably) updaters instead - which many use already as normal part of upgrades for years now (they seem more useful and reliable).
    My preference is a dedicated boot drive with OS and apps and minimal home directory - no media files - and fast, like 10K Raptor. I use RAID for my home directory so it isn't on the boot drive for years to improve performance and keep the OS separate. Never a problem and nice mix.

  • How do I get rid of the blank space after one paragraph and before the next paragraph startsin Pages '09?  I understand that I should not have a page break mid paragraph but that is what I want.

    How do I get rid of the blank space after one paragraph and before the next paragraph startsin Pages '09?  I understand that I should not have a page break mid paragraph but that is what I want.

    Hi stephanie,
    These are unrelated questions/statements.
    Space before and space after a paragraph are controled in the Text Inspector, as you've found out.
    Pages will create a page break whenever there is no room for another line on the page. That break can come anywhere in a paragraph.
    You may be thinking of Widow and Orphan prevention, and the other Pagination controls, found under the More button in the Text Inspector. (If that's what you found, then thanks for the refresher! I hadn't been to that pane for awhile, and had forgotten the variety of pagination controls available.
    Regards,

  • The latest Java update breaks some vital applications

    The latest Java update breaks some vital applications. I have reverted back to 7u45. But now, every time a java applet is used, the "later", "block", "update" window appears and stops the applet from loading. I must have this older release. Oracle does not throughly test their updates. Note: the apps the update breaks are actually Oracle apps.
    I have checked the "do not ask again until next relesse" box every single time. Worthless.
    Is there a way to stop Java version checks? I even have the box deselected for check for updates; ignored by OS X. I WANT CONTROL! Stop checking!
    Ideas?

    We are facing the same issue. We suggested all out customers not to install the updates Java 7u65 or 8u11 until there is a workaround or fix.
    The wrong look & feel is causing the following problems:
    - Either icons or text can be display on a button. Currently the majority of buttons are displaying an icon. Therefore the workaround is to set the text at least.
    - Scroll-bars are displayed within all cells of a table column. The circumstances are not clear when these scroll-bars are displayed.

  • Did OS X Mavericks v10.9.4 update break bluetooth audio for anyone else?

    Did OS X Mavericks v10.9.4 update break bluetooth audio for anyone else?
    I have a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 duo MacMini from 2010, and I just updated to the latest OSX (10.9.4 (13E28)) and now bluetooth audio is broken. 
    I can pair my device (LG Tone+) to the mac, but no audio will play though it.  I've rebooted the machine, reconnected the device after the update, restarted the browser, all with no results.
    Typically, when I connect to the system I will get audio acknowledgements through the headset, "Power On" "Battery High" "Connected"
    I still get those audio queues through the device.  However when I open up a video on YouTube, or attempt to stream music on Spotify...nothing happens.
    I've plugged wired headphones into the system and that works just fine.  When I connect my Bluetooth headset, the audio to the wired headphones disconnects, so it seems like everything is behaving normally, except that no audio plays through the bluetooth headset.
    Any ideas on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated.  So, what do we think?

    Try resetting the SMC.

  • 10.8.5 update breaks ethernet driver?

    So after updating my mid-late 2007 MBP to 10.8.5, it crashes hard when connected to the wired ethernet.   By crashes hard, I mean the clock stops, the machine stops responding and turns itself off.   This does not seem to happen when I am connected to the wireless.
    Is it possible that the update broke the ethernet driver --at least for my machine.
    I have tried the following to fix it:
    Boot off of restore partition--repair disk, repair permissions
    Reset Pram
    Reset system (pull the battery, press the power)
    Install the update from the Combo
    Delete and re-install the ethernet from system preferences
    There were no detectable problems before the update and I'm connected to the ethernet everyday for 8-10 hours.   This problem began immediately after the update.
    Anyone else having this problem?  Thoughts?   I know this update worked on ethernet speed--is it now broken?
    Thanks!
    Chris

    Do you have recovery partition? Disconnect ethernet cable and Boot to recovery mode. Then connect your ethernet cable and run Get more help as this will open Safari (test a bit longer than just a 1-2 mins, give like a 10-20mins). If problem persist in Recovery Mode or Mac has problem with connection then you have a hardware issue. If in Recovery mode is ok, try boot to Safe mode, create new user and see if still is the same.
    If above doesn't help, then go to /Library/Preferences and rename SystemConfiguration folder to SystemConfiguration.OLD and then restart your computer. This step will reset all network settings and create new config files - although there shouldn't be any problems but Time Machine Backup would be recomended to have it anyway.

  • Thunderbolt update for mid-2011 MacBook Air causes slowdowns and flickering?

    So I've experienced not one problem since getting my mid-2011 MacBook Air.  After installing the Thunderbolt update that was pushed through Software Update the other day, I've noticed that when I go into Mission Control or App Expose it's more sluggish than it used to be.
    Additionally, I saw my screen flicker several times - I have never seen this before.
    Has anyone experienced similar problems since installing this update the other day when it came out?  I'm most concerned about the sluggishness of the screens.
    Thanks,
    BJC

    I never installed it, it's popped up each time I've checked -- but today it wasn't offered in Software Update.  Odd.

  • Updating my mid 2010 MacBook Pro

    This is the third time I have tried to post this so if it is here three times.....my humble apologies...
    After adding Yosemite to my mid 2010 macbook pro I realized, after experiencing the beach ball of death every 3-4 minutes and slow activity, that my 4 gigs Ram probably wasn't enough and upgraded to Crucial 8 gigs....no more beach ball and nearly instant screen changes. I have ordered a Crucial MX 100 512 Gb SSD and figure this is a great time to add windows. I work in medicine and need to access a medical center portal that doesn't support Mac.  I never game nor do I do graphics. Just business and communications, paper writiing net surfing for research etc. I teach online also
    Here's the question...How much space should I dedicate on the new SSD for the windows partition? any suggestions. I am ignorant when it comes to understanding this computer world, but I can fix headaches and snotty noses pretty well. And I can follow instructions (LOL).

    Hello there, Robert.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some recommendations as to the minimum requirments you would need for installing Windows on your Mac using Boot Camp:
    Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Support 
    Requirements for all Windows installations
    To install Microsoft Windows using Boot Camp, you need the following:
    An Internet connection
    An administrator account in OS X to use Boot Camp Assistant
    The keyboard and mouse or trackpad that came with your Mac (If they aren’t available, use a USB keyboard and mouse)
    A minimum of 2 GB of RAM, 30 GB of free disk space are recommended if you are installing Windows for the first time, or 40 GB of free disk space if you are upgrading from a previous version of Windows
    An authentic Microsoft Windows full install disc or ISO file
    A built-in optical drive, or a compatible external optical drive is required if you are using an install disc
    8 GB USB storage device, or external drive formatted as MS-DOS (FAT) to install the downloaded drivers
    Before you install Windows, you should use Software Update to make sure OS X and your computer's firmware are up to date.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • ATV3 New Update Breaks Home Sharing Music Library Streaming (Again)

    Windows 7 user here using Apple TV 3.  Overall, I love the device, when it works right. 
    When I first got it, using the Home Sharing Music Library feature from the Apple TV (in other words, pulling content from the computer) was broken in that it would play for a while, then suddenly stop.  There was a *huge* thread on this where many people seemed to experience it. 
    I was so happy when the last AppleTV update fixed this (for me anyways, and I'd guess many others) - since then (months) it worked flawlessly until today, when the ATV prompted me for an update.  Now it's even worse than before and appears to play the first song, then immediately get stuck on the second.  =(  Anyone else having this issue?
    Fortunately, my workaround works, which is "pushing" content from my computer, but this isn't nearly as convenient for a variety of reasons (including much less control via the AppleTV if I'm just relaxing and listening).
    I truly hope Apple can resolve this quickly, since they had it nailed before...

    Luke, I can confirm the bugs with the latest AppleTV software, version 5.  It doesn't matter if it is an ATV2 or ATV3 because they are running the same OS version.  There are Home Sharing problems because immediately after I updated my ATV2, I started having Home Sharing problems when trying to play any video from my iMac.  The link between the Mac and the ATV2 breaks and it bumps back to the main menu with no computers displayed.  Quitting iTunes and re-launching fixes the problem, but it isn't guaranteed.  Sometimes you will get lucky and it will remain connected, other times, it will break the link again, after another 5 minutes.  And, it won't remember your place in the video when the link breaks.
    The other major bug is that TV shows are displayed out of order.  Apple has confirmed the TV show order bug, but haven't heard anything on the Home Sharing bug.  I have reported that one to Apple.  Hopefully we will get a software update soon.

  • 10.5.6 Update Breaks Time Machine backup of FileVault home folders?

    Time machine used to backup FileVault home folders when I logged out. After 10.5.6, it just logs out and does not do the backup.
    Anyone else?
    s

    This is a copy of a post that I have here somewhere...
    "Personally I think apple is up to something...."
    My set up was almost since Leopard was out.. Airport Extreme, USB drive connected to it.. 3 profiles on a macbook mid 07, 4 g's ram.. TM would back up will I was logged in every hour or so.. and whenever I logged out it would back up my home folder since I had file vault enabled.. never had a mayor problem.. updated to 10.5.6 about a day after it was out.. TM still backed up while I was logged in but it stopped backing up my home folder that had file vault enabled.. I decided to try a clean back up with another USB drive that I had used for the same purpose and it would not even recognize the format of the drive.. Any ways.. today I got a brand new 500 g's time capsule.. guess what... same thing.. it wont back up my home folder.. I've been with support on the phone since the beginning of the problem spoke to 4 different people 2 different levels, finally one level higher (3rd) the guy told me he couldn't help me because the set up i had was not supported by apple.. today I got to that 3rd level and the guy had no idea.. he even or actually most of them sounded surprise when i told them that i was expecting TM to back up when i was logged off.. .. well he is supposedly going to fwd my issue to their engineers and he or some one else would call me back in around a week becuase of the holly days..
    SSooooo , I would say, lets not hold our breath..

  • Acrobat 9.2.0 Update Breaks Text Box Tool, Possibly Introduces a New Security Flaw.

    Anyone have any ideas for this one?
    Once we upgraded to version 9.2.0 (This is a major security release that fixes a Javascript security flaw) our text box tool no longer works the way we want it and crashes the program.
    Try this:
    1. Open any PDF document on a  Windows XP SP3 computer with Adobe Acrobat 9.2.0.
    2. Add the 'Text Box Tool'  to the toolbar by right-clicking the toolbar and selecting 'MoreTools' then placing a checkbox next to the 'Text Box Tool'.
    3. Click the 'Text Box Tool' on the toolbar and draw a new textbox anywhere on the PDF document.
    4. Click out of the textbox to cancel typing mode, then single click back on the textbox that you just created.
    5. Right-click the textbox that you created and select 'Properties..."
    6. Under the 'Appearance' tab,
    a. Select Style: No Border
    b. Select Fill Color: No Color
    c. Check the box 'Make Properties Default'
    d. Click OK.
    7. Click the Text Box Tool again, and draw another textbox (Since there is no border you will not see it but you will still be drawing a textbox).
    8. Let go of the mouse when you are done drawing your textbox rectangle and the program will crash at this point.
    Results:
    1. "An internal error occurred." dialog box is displayed.
    2. After clicking ok the following "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" dialog box is displayed:
    "Runtime Error!
    Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe
    R6025
    - pure virtual function call
    3. After clicking ok another dialog box is displayed:
    Error signature
    AppName: acrobat.exe AppVer: 9.2.0.124 ModName: acrobat.dll Offset: 000509dd
    4. The same error has occurred on all five computers that we tested the new version on.
    Expected results: A new textbox is created and you may start typing in text (This was the behavior in version 9.1.3).
    Additional Information
    At times, we need to add information to PDF files (i.e missing dates, etc). We have always used the Text Box Tool to do this with no border, and with no fill color as this is the EASIEST and FASTEST way to add information to PDF files in a precise manner. We want the fill color to be transparent so that we can fit text in between and exactly on lines easier, and so that there is not a solid background box behind the text. We want no border because a border around text that needs to go on a line looks stupid. Up until version 9.2 this procedure worked fine. Now, the program will crash. Perhaps this even adds another security vulnerability if the crash could be exploited. We want to maintain security by patching Adobe to address the JavaScript vulnerability that was addressed in version 9.2.0, however, we are not able to update our users as the new version breaks the fundamental purpose that we use Adobe Acrobat for. We are stuck with the vulnerable version 9.1.3 until this problem is addressed. Disabling JavaScript is not an option either, as we use a Java plug-in on a daily basis.
    Any thoughts would be great, I have attached screenshots of the errors.

    The question still is not answered.
    The problem continues in Acrobat 8.1.7 for Windows, even after updating toAcrobat  8.2.0. ( I can't comment on whether recent updates to Acrobat 9 fix the problem in Acrobat 9.)
    The internal error after text insertion problem occurs even with PDF documents created in Acrobat 8, i.e., not only old versions of PDF files. We have the text box insertion icon in the toolbar, and the properties set to "no color" for the box and "0" width for the text box lines, as other commentators have noted.
    The problem did not exist when Acrobat 8 Pro was installed, it was introduced by one of the updaters.
    The main reason we use Acrobat, rather than much cheaper PDF-creation software, is to annotate PDF files (including inputting data into spaces in standard forms).
    So justify the high price of Acrobat and fix the problem please, Adobe !

  • Excel 2007 VBA, problem setting Sheet Visibility in BeforeSave event after Office updates during mid Dec 2014

    After update of Office 2007 during mid December 2014, I have a Macro that does not work properly - which it did before the update.
    The Macro is used to make sure that users have Macros enabled when working on the file. The logic basically does the following:
    => In the "OnOpen" event, set all "work sheets" as Visible, and set the "Macro Warning sheet" to non-visible.
    => In the "BeforeSave" event, set the "Macro Warning sheet" as Visible and set all "work sheets" as non-visible.
    After the mid December update of Office 2007, the "OnOpen" part still works fine. The "BeforeSave" part does NOT work properly if the save action is triggered by using the shortcut key "CTRS+s". However, if saving the file
    using the "Save" option in the menues, the "BeforeSave" action works fine.
    Does Microsoft have a fix for this problem? I am not entierly sure exactly which update/KB that caused this.
    To recreate the problem, put the following code into the "thisWorkbook" module, and make sure that one sheet has the codeName "wshForceMacros". Open the file, enable Macros, then save the file using the keys "CTRL+s". The macro
    now hangs on the row "wshForceMacros.Cells(2, 1).Select" since the wshForceMacros sheet has not become properly visible...
    Option Explicit
    'ON OPEN
    Sub Workbook_Open()
    Call ShowSheetsAfterOpen
    End Sub
    'ON SAVE
    Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    Call HideSheetsBeforeSave
    End Sub
    'ON SAVE
    Sub HideSheetsBeforeSave()
    Dim oSheet As Worksheet
    'Show Macro Lock sheet
    wshForceMacros.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    wshForceMacros.Activate
    wshForceMacros.Cells(2, 1).Select
    'Hide all work sheets
    For Each oSheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    If oSheet.CodeName <> "wshForceMacros" Then
    If oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible Then
    oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
    End If
    End If
    Next oSheet
    End Sub
    Sub ShowSheetsAfterOpen()
    Dim oSheet As Worksheet
    Dim bSaved As Boolean
    'Show all work sheets
    For Each oSheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    If oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden Then
    oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    End If
    Next oSheet
    'Hide Macro Warning Sheet
    wshForceMacros.Visible = xlSheetHidden
