Most annoying bugs and one mighty strange one!

Ok so ive tried using logic 8 for time sensitive projects but ive switched back to 7.2 for now due to a pretty long list of bugs, some of which i outlined in another post. but the most annoying for me are the following.
- on closing a project with alt/apple and W, the app quits everytime !?
- strange graphic redraw problems on the mix when changing values
- mixer mode / view changes when it feels like it.
- some prefs not remembered like track header modes.
- mixer channels dont sync to order of those on the arrange page (busses etc)
- my mackie control universal does not sync on selecting a buss.
- windows dont remember their positions and same with save/load, export/import locations.
- AND heres a weird one. on exporting a 2 track master from logic, i then usually trim in peak pro 5 ... this works fine but once trimmed it wont save (in peak) or re open in anything. i ve tried repeating this in logic 7 and no problem so it must be something logic is doing in the export ?? ive checked all permissions on the file etc and their normal. i can open the file on my pc just not in peak as i usually do. very weird.
i am clean installing logic on a new macpro this week so ill report if these are solved,
anyone else experienced these?

I'm so glad to finally hear someone confirm the problem with bus/auxes and control surfaces. I was beginning to think it was just me.
i'll add that packing a folder with multiple tracks and then unpacking it will duplicate the tracks.
also weird redraws just on scrolling through the mixer (example the 'EQ' text goes off center.

Two annoying bugs and in PSE 7

(PSE7, Windows XP SP3)
THE MOST annoying bug (for me): From time to time, Album pane and Keyword Tags panes become blank. Nothing actually happens to the tags, but the only way to restore the panes, is to restart the program.
I still didn't manage to figure out precisely what triggers it, but I think it has something to do with "Fast User Switching" on XP...
Watched folders are not updated when new files are added with an external program. In my case, I use Canon Photo Professional to process RAW files and create JPGs and TIFFs at the same directory as the original RAW files are stored, which is part of the Catalog. Nothing happens and new files are not detected even if the folder is watched.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Let me add to this list a number of issues that seem to be widespread with respect to the sync engine:
Sync engine does not recognize existing content on install of PSE7 if it's an upgrade from a previous version. Changed photos get sync'd, but you have to make a change to everything to get it all picked up by the engine.
Sync stalls regularly. No indication is given to the user that sync is no longer progressing (double green arrows remain). However, the sync process stops consuming CPU and stops communicating with API.PHOTOSHOP.COM (both verifyable using resource manager).
Sync is extreemly slow. The upload times are an order of magnitude longer than my available bandwidth would permit. This appears to be due to the excessive handshaking necessary for each individual upload (no bulk transfer implemented).
Not necessarily a bug, but the lack of status information about the sync progress is dismal.
Let's hope the PSE7 team is as receptive to user help in troubleshooting as the PS.COM team turned out to be...

Most annoying "bugs" that need fixed NOW!

I installed Safari 3 beta and at first I loved it until a few things started to annoy me. First, when I maximize browser window, minimize it, and then restore it again, it automatically resizes to a smaller window. Also there is no other way to minimize the browser window other than clicking the minus sign on the upper right corner of browser window. I prefer to minimize by clicking the window title in the task bar at the bottom of the screen. Those minor bugs forced me to uninstall as I could not take it anymore. I happily went back to using IE7 as my default browser. However, I would prefer to use Safari 3 for Windows if those bugs are fixed! Until those issues are fixed, IE7 r0xx0rs my b0xx0rs!1!!!11!1

N80 V5.0719.0.2 24-05-2007 RM-92 Nokia N80 (12)

Yes, the new version is 5.0719.0.2 it is available now (I really dreamed last night that Nokia has launched this 5th version) when I checked I was very happy because I thought it would solve all the problems I have in my last V4.0707.0.7 but unfortunately it solved only some bugs but the most important bug has not been solved and the new version has the same bug as the previous one:
1.Phone requests Time/Date when restarted – whenever switched off and back on (this is the most important bug and I want to reply to the guy who thinks that it is a hardware problem: NO it is a bug in the new firmware because I haven't had this problem before i update to V4.0707.0.7 I am deadly sure)this is still on the new version 5.0719.0.2 !!!
2.No service messages available, it show requesting then nothing (ok this was solved on the new version)
3.A cursor appears blinking at the right side of the balloon that shows caller number(this is still on the new version 5.0719.0.2 !!!)
4.Led stays blinking even after using the keypad and when calling (ok this was solved on the new version)
5.Lower video quality (ok this was solved on the new version)
I was waiting for the new Version to solve all the bugs specially the first one - but now after the new version I am thinking to throw Nokia products forever as I am not willing to wait more than that withouht the alarm colock, reminders, and more important I used to switch off my phone to get a quiet sleep since the new version I cannot sleep well, I have to leave my phone switched on to keep the clock running! but what if the battery runs out especially it lasts for less than day and all N80 users know this well and i think this bug cannot be solved.
I want to tell all the users of N80 that we are all have been screwed by Nokia - I am really disappointed and wouldn't ever think that I will use other brands than Nokia but know just to retort this to Nokia I will have to use other brand

Bug and ergonomy reports : where do we post or email?

I just installed my upgrade for Logic. Logic 8 has a few annoying bugs and ergonomic flaws for my daily sound/music activities, where do we report these? As many of you, I have been a user for many years, but I would like to know how to report the many things I feel don't work well on this otherwise great software. Thanks.

One annoying bug

Sorry, my ENG is not perfect. First of all I want to say that Firefox for Android is the only one browser that works with chat bizarre.com.ua (Opera and other browsers don't update main frame in the chat), but has one annoying bug. When you enter the chat everything's work fine, but when you sroll up and down main frame (center frame) the autoscroll is not working after that. This is very important for me and some other users of Firefox for Android in this chat. Please fix that problem. I don't know where to write, if I'm wrong please tell that info to developers. Thank you.

If you selected the album at the left then the righthand pane will display the photos in that album. That's why you couldn't drag a photo from the right side into the album.
There is no way to see the contents of an Event and an Album at the same time. You either see the photos in the Event or those in the Album. Make sure you've clicked on the event and then drag the desired photos onto the album's icon at the left. Do not click on that album icon.

LabVIEW: The VI is not executable. Most likely the VI is broken or one of its subVIs cannot be located. Open the VI in LabVIEW using File Open and verify that it is runnable.

When trying to run a sequence on a deployment machine I get this error. When I switch the Adaptor back to the Development System the problem goes away however I do not have the luxury of keeping the full Labview development on the test machine. Is there a know fix for this problem and what is the cause of this error. Here is the software and versions I am using. It seems that the vi's that are broken are using Invoke and Property Nodes within them, I am not sure if this is just a coincidence. It appears it is more related to the invoke node than the property node. Any help is greatly appreciated. Why does it seem everything works great until you try and deploy it on a test machine. This is not the first time I have had these kinds of problems using Nation Instruments software.
Labview 8.2.1
TestStand 4.0
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have a similar problem.
A bit of background - I had developed a test suite with a Labview front panel for manual operations, and a Teststand project which used some of the same lower level vi's, and specific test step vi's. It was developed on LV 2010 32-bit and Teststand 2010. All was fine.
Recently i had to rebuild my development machine and installed only LV 64-bit 2011 and the latest (2010) Teststand from the 2012 Dev Suite.
I knew that i wanted to run some new hardware drivers in 64-bit versions due to another problem, so i replaced the .dll in the very lowest level VI with the 64 bit version. And ran the manual interface. All ok.
But when i try the Teststand execution, i get one of two errors:
- If i set Teststand to use the LV runtime engine 11.0.1 (2011 SP1), the i get a "Unable to load VI xxxxx with the runtime engine version '11.0'" Despite the fact that each VI does run correctly in LV dev when loaded individually, and i've saved them as version 11.
- If i set it to use the development system (which shows in the config menu 'active version:32-bit' even though 32-bit LV is not installed), then i get the "The VI is not executable. Most likely the VI is broken or one of its subVIs cannot be located." error, even though i when i open each VI in the LV 2011 it runs ok.
Any ideas?
How can i set TS dev system to use the 64-bit version? Or is there a separate 64-bit deployemrnt of TS?

MISSION CONTROL, LAUNCHPAD, and FULL SCREEN APPS (one month later)

I'm pretty good embracing a new thing when it comes along. I downloaded LION the day it come out, which was over a month ago at this point. On that day, I immediately found MISSION CONTROL and LAUNCHPAD both uninituitve and pointless. Unhandy iCandy. And of FULL SCREEN APPS? Not necessary on an iMac anyway.
So I quickly sought out quick solutions to 'fix' these new features. Launchpad and full screen apps have the advantage that they can be simply ignored. This is a good thing. Mission Control, on the other hand, got in the way of a beloved feature for me: what was once SPACES and EXPOSE. That is, I couldn't simply ignore MC because I still needed the previous helpful features in Snow Leopard.
My solution was kind of surprising and eye-opening. It's complicated to explain but I thought I'd share. This conclusion is likely best suited for someone not using a small screened Mac. It turns out that most users (with big enough screens) don't really need Mission Control, Launchpad, Spaces, or Full Screen apps.
At all.
Let's go through that conclusion, one by one:
FULL SCREEN APPS
If you have a relatively big screen (20 iMac for instance), why do you need Safari full screen? Unless you intend to sit across the room from the computer, no reason. And there's lots of bright empty space when you do this. Do you need the Mail app full screen? If you need reading glasses, maybe, but otherwise, nope. I find it's easier just to stretch out an app pretty big and leave it at that.
Full screen apps DO offer a nice feature which is making your desktop, menubar, and dock go BYE BYE. I can see where sometimes this is a useful feature, but typically -- NOPE. Typically I want access to my dock (to switch between open apps without the added step of cancelling full screen first), and typically I want access to my menubar so that I can glance up and see what time it is or find an app menu quickly.
The only feature I find worthy of praise with full screen apps is that they hide the clutter on your desktop. But there's an app in the Mac App Store which makes your desktop icons vanish with the touch of a button (CAMOUFLAGE). I mean, what's the point of a wallpaper if you bury it with desktop clutter or eliminate it with full screen apps? If it's a busy and distracting wallpaper, umm... you picked bad wallpaper.
LAUNCH PAD
LAUNCH PAD offers an iOS experience inside OS X. At first I thought it was completely silly. After a month now, I kinda get why it's there. Kinda.
You see, before LP, to duplicate it's functionality, you'd have to organize folders yourself. Put folders of various apps together. Place them somewhere in the finder heirarchy. Then drag those folders into the part of the dock with the trashcan. Then you could click them open and have access to similarly themed folders of apps. The problem here, of course, is that unless you're a power user, you'll never do this.
So Apple thought, AH-HA, we'll just drag into OS X a paradigm that users already get from iOS. Clumping apps together any way you like them. The misfire, if you ask me, is not allowing users to drag the new iOS folders straight into the dock when finished. That is to say: copies of said organized folders. It's as if Apple's software people have complete contempt for the dock -- and are desperate to have users abandon it.
My problem is that I like having folders in my dock of stuff I need. It just works, as Steve says. Going to the same EXACT place every time I need anything is more intuitive and graceful than ADDING an app called Launchpad that launches you into a different finder altogether. Makes zero sense and THIS is why I say, like FULL SCREEN APPS, LP can basically be abandoned.
By the way: need proof that Apple has complete contempt for the Dock?
MISSION CONTROL/SPACES
A month has passed since MC was introduced and SPACES was eliminated. I dare anyone to tell me why either is needed at all. Before you get iMiffed, humor me for a moment and hear me out.
The notion of SPACES was that it's a neat way to keep like minded open apps together. I totally bought into this, back in the day. So much so that I was iMiffed when it was gone in Lion. But let's look at this closer.
The REASON why we needed SPACES was that we could have WAY too many windows open at once on a Mac. Right? A big mess of windows covering each other up. Suppose you're surfing in Safari but need iTunes? But iTunes is hidden. So what did you do? You went to Spaces as step one, moused over to your iTunes space as move two, and then clicked it as move three. Seems like a great solution until the day you discover that you could simply click on iTunes in the dock as move one and arrive at iTunes. As one step. Period. Really simple, right?
Why have Spaces and apps dance around when you can just click the app you want and be done with it? That's the critical observation to make in order to follow my entire line of reasoning. Sure, it may look really cool and make Windows machines look like junk, but at the end of the day, why add two steps to something you might do 100 times a day -- switching between apps.
So why OH why did Apple add Spaces? Simple: because too many apps were visible at once in one 'desktop' window. So if you can build many new desktops, there might only be one or two in each. Great solution. Right?
Wrong, as it turns out. Because we still have the two extra steps. It's a weak solution. And it's in complete contempt of the Dock, which as it turns out, offers the strongest solution.
The strong solution would be that only one app is visible in your Mac's window at all times. Say you're in Safari. Despite having 12 other apps open, you only see Safari. Your dock tells you that you have other apps open, but nothing else sits in your window BUT the app you're using. So you want to go to iTunes? So click on it in the dock and Safari vanishes and iTunes emerges by itself. No other windows. What could be simpler? (This app is freeware known as ISOLATOR.)
If you download and try ISOLATOR, you'll say, umm, okay, but wait: sometimes I do want more than one window in view. Okay, fine, turn it off then. From the handy menu bar menu. I find that 98% of the time I need ISOLATOR on. Mileage may vary.
So let's recap. One third party software removes distracting desktop clutter, the other removes distracting app windows. Both can be toggled on and off from the menu bar. One is free, one costs $2. These two solutions remove the only real feature of FULL SCREEN APPS and make SPACES and it's newfangled cousin MISSION CONTROL pointless.
Need that last one explained? Well, what's Mission Control but a variant of spaces? To invoke MC and switch to the needed window are those same two annoying steps Spaces added into the mix. Nothing was fixed. Plus, like spaces, you must invest time and energy organizing such spaces.
Why bother? And so I ask again: can somebody who's read and tried the above carefully explain to me why Mission Control, Launchpad, and Full Screen Apps are really needed at all? (Outside of small screened Macs.) Doesn't the dock and these two sharewares together solve most problems?
Am I missing something?

I agree with everything you said about full screen apps, mission control and launchpad. For apps that made sense to run full screen, they already could under SL. Launchpad is totally unnecessary and Mission Control is a mere shadow of Expose and Spaces.
However, I feel you have not given due credit to Spaces. The point of Spaces is to let one organise logical desktops for different tasks, not just a way to reduce the number of windows on display. For example, I have a Space for software development where I run Xcode and the iPhone simulator, a Firefox window showing perhaps documentation or some other websites pertaining to software development, a Finder window that is opened in the folder with my design docs. I have another Space where I have the remote login sessions, yet another Space with another Firefox window where I do general surfing and emailing. I can switch between these spaces using a keyboard shortcut, which is much quicker than having to lift my hand off the keyboard, move it over to the mouse, move the mouse pointer over the Dock, find the app and click on it, only to find that it has switched to the wrong window of the app.
Without Spaces, organisation of my desktop is disrupted each time I want to switch task, whereas Spaces allows me to drop everything I am doing, go and do something completely different for a while and go back to my exact previous environment. I have a 27" iMac so am not short of screen space but I use Spaces extensively. BTW, switching Spaces using a keyboard shortcut is a lot faster on SL than the equivalent on Lion, thanks to the gratuitous screen animation of the latter.

Bit of a strange one.... HD Movies "Judder" when streaming to ATV2

Bit of a strange one.... all my HD Movies since the latest ATV2 update "Judder" when streaming.
It's very hard to describe but whenever there is a fast Zoom or Pan shot the image flickers for around half a second. It seems to happen every 20 seconds or so, this has only been the case since the latest update of ATV2.
I purchased Tron Legacy (HD) from the iTunes store and it occurs when playing that movie. It also happens on all my self generated HD contect.
Strangely it does not occur when streaming to my 1st Gen Apple TV, which makes me think it has nothing to do with my Home Network setup, as they are both connected via Ethernet cables.
There is only a problem with HD Streaming and ATV2.
Any assistance would be appriciated
Hans

The last update seems to have introduced a feature which lets the Apple TV detect the native frequency of your TV, in the UK this is probably but not always 50 Hz, this is beneficial for Home video and broadcast content in these locations where the frame rate is 25 fps. It isn't ideal for 30 fps or 24 fps content though which most of the iTMS movies and TV shows are.
Also of relevance is that some TV's make a better job of telecine/detelecine than others due to the quality of their components.
Although I don't necessarily think that Apple are responsible for the ability of 3rd party TV's, the problem could be easily overcome by allowing the user to manually select the Apple TV output as was the case with the Apple TV 1. This would allow the user to switch to 60 Hz for 30/24 fps content and 50 Hz for 25 fps content.
Some TV's have motion settings which worsen/improve the situation depending on their settings.

Two mighty mouses, one macbook pro.

I have a wireless mighty mouse for home. Sometimes lately when I take my macbook pro somewhere, I noticed I have forgotten my mouse. So, I splurged and bought a 2nd mouse to leave in my case so I never have to remember to bring my desk one.
Well, it's not working as planned. I have to re-sync them (or whatever the term is...). I use the one in the bag all day, shut it off. Go home, start up mac, and now my desktop one doesn't work. It's really very, very annoying and time consuming to do this every time.
I did a quick search here, but just didn't see any definitive answers on why you can't use two (or more) wireless mice with one computer. Each has a unique hookup, so it should work fine.
Any suggestions?

Strange one day adding to tasks due date (Outlook –SharePoint- MS Project integration)

Hi,
I have integrated MS Project 2010 with MS Outlook 2010 via SharePoint. Everything has gone more or less smoothly (as it could be for Microsoft
J), but finally I got into a strange problem. Strangely enough,
MS Outlook, while syncing tasks with SharePoint (these tasks are pre-created in MS Project and synced with SharePoint beforehand),
adds one day to due dates of each of these tasks, e.g. for “Task 1” due date in MS Project and on SharePoint is 20.10.2010, but MS Outlook puts it as 21.10.2010, for “Task 2” due date in MS Project and on SharePoint is 22.10.2010, but MS Outlook
puts it as 23.10.2010, etc.
What is a strange trick? I have checked work time, holidays - everything is the same in MS Outlook, SharePoint and MS Project (8-17, Mon-Fri, 8 hours, 40 days a week). What could it be?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
It seems nobody can reply, so I will reply by myself because I found out the answer. The answer from Microsoft is pretty simple - ha-ha we know about,
we will work on it, wait, ha-ha. Firstly let me quote Microsoft senior tech answer on the same request 3 month ago:
"Hello Artur,
The senior tech got back to me with the following conclusion:
Outlook is rounding everything set to 12:00 PM or after to the next date because the columns mapped to start date and due dates are only Date columns,
not date/time columns.
It is rounding at noon because of the .5 decimal. This can be seen in Excel - 41115.5 = 7/25/2012 12:00 in date/time format whereas 41115.49 = 7/25/2012
11:45.
The issue seems to be an expected behavior, the next level of support is working on the same but currently I have not been provided with any ETA, so
it looks like the issue will take a good amount of time to get fixed.
I would appreciate your patience while we are working on the issue. I will keep you posted as and when I get an update on the issue."
Sounds good, does not it? Ok. After asking this question recently I got run-around and finally I found the same question unsolved (see the quotation
before) more than 3 month ago. I have sent it to Microsoft Tech Support. Look at reply I got from them on 22.10.2012:
"This issue has been noticed and will be handled by the product team. Once we have any updates, it will be responded to you timely".
So the basic function does not work properly, there month passed - no way! Wait until what? I could hardly
even imagine how Microsoft launched the product with such a bug and is not resolving the problem for months.

Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one. How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one. How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

So the answer to my question is yes - from an old Exchange account that was provided by a previous employer.
If so, you can't.
You can't merge or transfer contacts that were synced over the air with an Exchange account with another account, and the same for syncing the contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer. This is how most employers want it.

How do I make new albums in photos and move picture from one album to another

How do I make new albums in Photos and move photos from one album to another

At the moment you can't - though it should be possible (if it makes it into the final release) in iOS 5 which will be available sometime in the Autumn. Photos cannot currently be moved between albums on the iPad.
If you sync separate folders from your computer you'll get an album for each of them on the iPad, and you have to sync all the folders/albums that you want together as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad (not including a folder in a sync is the way that you delete it from the iPad).

Most annoying bugs and one mighty strange one!
