Upgrade to kernel 3.12 and over - No graphics unless with "nomodeset"
Hi all,
Soon after kernel 3.12 came out, I downloaded and installed it, as customarily ( custom kernel ). I do not create a proper package for the kernel, I'm afraid I am not really into that stuff, even though it might be of help in managing my kernels, I admit.
Anyway, I found out that all the kernel versions from 3.12 forth ( including the latest 3.13.0-rc2 ) broke my video and freezed my laptop. I'm completely unable to get control of it anymore, and if I log in from ssh before launching X, the connection terminates after a few seconds. No logs, nothing. If I run X from the ssh console, I see the messages stop after "Loading extension GLX"
My laptop is an Inspiron 15R SE, featuring an Intel i7 CPU, which includes i915 graphics, 8GB of RAM, and a discrete gpu board, a Radeon HD 7730M.
I was able to use vgaswitcheroo with the 3.11 kernel, and it worked like charm with a proper X configuration, but even by moving the X config directory to a backup location, the laptop still freezes. I tried several combination of driver configurations, but none worked till now.
The only way I manage to use X is by removing every configuration ( backing them up ), and by passing the "nomodeset" parameter to the kernel.

Indeed you were right. I though that in single mode all services were not started, but apparently I was mistaken.

I recently upgraded to an iPhone 5 and I have this synced with my previous iCloud account. My problem is my old iPhone 4 is taking up 2.5 GB of space in the cloud. Is there a way to delete this iphone from the icloud so I can free up space as it is not needed anymore?

Just upgraded to Photoshop CC 2014 and it's playing havoc with my work flow.
I've just upgraded to Photoshop CC 2014 and it's playing havoc with my work flow.
i) From LR5.5, when I click edit with "Photoshop CC 2014" - it opens PS CC 2014 but doesn;t open the image
ii) Whenever I try and use Nik Viveza it crashes PS CC 2014 when applying the changes from viveza. I've checked that I have the latest version of Nik software. It was working fine PS CC
I'm now going back to CC until these can be resolved.
Thanks
ChrisI was going to reply that I have multiple monitors and have had zero problems with Viveza used with PS CC 2014. Then I realized two things. One I didn't know if the OP was on windows or the Mac and, two, if the Mac was it a Big Cat or geographic system. The display characteristics differ greatly between the three systems.
It sure would be nice to have a one line signature specifying the poster's system available for use on this board.

I need to restore back to 1.0 on my Nano as iTunes upgraded automatically to 1.2 and it's not compatible with my car device. Where can i download the ispw and ispw.signature files for 1.0 ?
I don't think it's possible if you are stuck in recovery mode but I may be wrong...
Since your device qualifies for iOS 8(.1), that is the version that will be downloaded/restored to the iPad.
I do know that you can restore your iPad (from backup & as new) and keep the same iOS version if you restore using the iPad itself under Settings/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings but since you can't access this because your stuck in recovery mode, the point is moot.
Have you tried downloading the update in the middle of the night (2 am or so) where dropouts are much less likely to occur?
It's always possible to take your device in to an Apple Store (make a Genius Bar reservation first) and do the iOS update there in the Apple Store.. I'm sure they will gladly help you out with it and not charge you a thing. The trouble with that would be if you don't have an Apple Store nearby.
Sorry I couldn't be of any more help. -
Can I upgrade to OS X Lion, and then reformat my computer with the OS X CD?
Can I upgrade to OS X Lion, and then reformat my computer with the OS X CD? Because if I reformating my mac with the regualr OS X CD, would that erase the Lion? Since I just donwloading the Lion, and don't really have a CD for it.
If you install Lion then erase the drive that will erase Lion. To purchase and download Lion you must first install Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later to access the App Store where you purchase and download the Lion installer. You might read this before:
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion. -
Upgraded to 10.6.7 and now having various issues with Appleworks Drawing program.
HELP...I just upgraded to 10.6.7 and now my Appleworks drawing program is slow - beach balls all the time, I can not copy into other programs, copy and paste messes with the formatting, fills and lines disappear, Fonts are messed up when copied...ON and ON..I Installed rosetta from the 10.6.7 install disk but still no luck. Any advice is appreciated, I am in a crunch with drawing deadlines an no time to learn another drawing program..Yes I am old school.and HELP!
You could look at EazyDraw: the version on the website is $95 download, $139 box and manual: it will open ClarisWorks drawings and is a powerful vector drawing program which makes a good replacement for Appleworks.
There is a much cheaper version in the Mac App Store but note that this version does not open AppleWorks documents. -
So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
Thanks to anyone who can answer.I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
Please attach a screenshot of the popup
* [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Upgraded to IOS 5 software and having problems synching music with my laptop
Not sure what happened, but after I downloaded the IOS 5.0 software upgrade I kept getting errors when trying to synch the ipone with itunes on my primary laptop that runs Windows Vista. None of my music can be synched becaise I continually get an error that the device is not recognized.
I would suggest opening "Apple Software Update" (from "All Programs" under "Start") so as to ensure that you have the most up-to-date version of iTunes.
Hope this helps! -

Upgrading to Mountain Lion server and all services breaks down...
Hi!
I have, after endless hours of scanning logs and .plist and other files' content and permission settings found why Mountain Lion Server.app in some cases doesn't seem to be able to take control over all service, stating it can't read or write its own setting files etc.
As a Swede I of course run a system set in the Swedish language. Mountain Lion can't upgrade a Swedish system, only fore languages are accepted !!!
See Migration Logs!
//Excerpt from the Mail Migration log:
Begin Mail Migration: Thu Aug 2 19:34:24 2012
purge: 0
sourceRoot: /Library/Server/Previous
sourceType: System
sourceVersion: 10.7.4
targetRoot: /
language: sv
Did not supply a valid language for the --language parameter, needs to be one of [en | fr | de | ja]
As you can see, it can only upgrade in English, French, German and Japanese system language. With no inital warnings the system crashes and causes a true mess half the way through its installation when you start Server.app.
Solution:
Throw Server.app in the trash or move it outside the Application folder, to force the computer to realized "its not a server". It can take half a minute or so for the system to realize it is no longer a server. You will see a sign.
Change the language setting to English in your system preferences and restart your computer. Move back Server.app from the trash (or where you put it) and start Server.app, thereby initiating a new Servers installation. I was happy to find that all mail accounts etc was found again. I thought for several hours they where lost.
The various sites hosted by the server did however not appear in their correct new location (when I tryed this). I had to manually move them from the "Previous" folder in /Library/Server/Previous/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/ to /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/
I hope this helps anyone out there....
Cheers!
StefanPlease explain.... when are you stoped from upgrading?
I haven't actually had problems with the actual OS upgrade it is when you launch Server.app the first time everything goes to f-n h....
Server.app should reconfigure and move around a lot of files and it does, but not succeeding doing it correctly. Many services can't read their config files and have them in two places. I trying to figure out which ones are being used. Somethime both locations are used but only parts of the settings in the files !?!?

My iPod touch 4th generation suddenly started restarted over and over for no apparent reason...
So, last night while I was asleep, my iPod Touch started to restart over and over. It loads with the Apple symbol, but with a little settings cog at the bottom of it, and when it get's to the password screen, it stays there for about one second, and the process starts over again. It wont respond to being turned off or on, and the password numbers are unresponsive.
I tried pressing and holding the off button and the home button, and it turns off briefly before starting up again. It turns on without the little settings cog, but as usual, it stays at the password screen for a second, then the loop continues.
I've tried plugging it into my computer, but all that does is make it do it's little 'I'M CONNECTED TO THE COMPUTER' beep every time it turns on! I don't fancy taking it to Apple to repair, as I use it every day and I don't really fancy spending the money and having to wait. If any one has had any success with this issue, I would be extremely grateful.
Any suggestions would be completely welcome - even if they're not things that have proved to work. I'm pretty desperate.Use RecBoot to kick it into recovery mode and restore it.

Issues with getting the slide button to work after upgrade to iOS 7.02 and 7.03
Ever since upgrading to iOS 7.02 and 7.03 having issues with getting the slide button to work to open up iPad 2. Happened last week and was able to restore it to new and get it to work again and it worked great until one week later (this morning) doing the same thing. Have tried restoring iPad to new 3 times (via itunes) and still unable to get the slide button to move so can use the iPad. IPad able to charge, able to restore, able to sync with itunes even able to recover but not able to get past first screen where you have to slide to access iPad. Any help would be greatly appeciated. Live about 300 miles from nearest Apple store.
I am beginning to wonder whether there isn't some weird problem with that Home button.
Try this: Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch = On
This will place a button on the iPad's screen.
You can move this button anywhere on the screen.
This button gives you - amongst many other things - a soft Home button.
To turn your iPad on, you can use the Sleep/wake button or move a small magnet across the bezel of the iPad where the volume controls are.
If you use the magnet, then: Settings > General > Lock / Unlock = On
Now should not need to press the Home button anymore.
If this method allows you to use your iPad without a hitch, then suspect hardware problems with the Home button. -
Well as I said in the "question", I did a reset of the settings on my IPad2. however when it powered back on from resetting. it lets the the logo screen with the progress bar under it. The progress bar gets about 1/4 of an inch from the left then stops. After a few mins Ipad shuts off then turns on to the logo screen, then goes to the logo/progress bar screen, does whats said above, then off. That cycle just repeats over and over. Any help with this would be appreciated.
