10.4.3 update - scuppered dock reliability

Morning everyone
Since the 10.4.3 update, in 1 out of 3 times using the dock, it'll freeze. never like it used to in the days of 10.4.0 or 10.4.1 - this time making another application active and then switching back to finder will fix the problem, but it's really irritating. anyone found any work-arounds?
Cheers

A later OS X update solved the issue.

After a Software Update My Dock Doesn't Show Up

We just did a Software Update and the most of the time the dock does not show up and the computer runs very sluggish. If I create a new user the dock comes up fine and computer runs flawlessly. It's almost like something go corrupted. I ran a Verify Permissions and a Repair Permissions and that didn't seem to help. The repair took about 8 hours when most of the time on other machines it takes 30-40 minutes. After the repair the computer was no better.

Delete the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Dock.plist
Log out and back in.

Any news on software update for dock-remote?

Is there any news on a software update to fix the remote troubles we have all had?

Here is a kind fo wish list for Updates for the Universal Dock and Remote:
1. Menu button functionality for iPod through the remote.
2. A similar "Front Row" experience for iPod, when connected to a television, which would allow you to access music, picture, or movie menus on the screen. Or, at least replicate the iPod display on your television.
3. Remote controll functionality when a Universal Dock is connected to your Mac. I do not see why this could not happen. You have an infrared remote and a reciever connected to your Mac, why not take advantage of it? I think that this would be a great way to get Front Row to function on other Macs besides the new iMac. Or at least allow the remote controll to access and controll iTunes.
4. Firewire for the 5G iPods. This is more of a hardware issue. I do not understand the lack of firewire support, but I won't get into that here. If is not possible place firewire support inside the new iPods becuase of design constraints, then make a new Universal Dock that somehow will allow firewire support to the new iPods.
Sorry, Stephen for this odd post, but I did not know where else to post this.
Is there a place that I may go to make suggestions to Apple?

Leopard update ical dock not keeping current date

since the update last week, the dock icon has stopped keeping the current date. the first day I noticed it stopped updating I did a kill dock. stayed on that day.
I removed it from the dock, then re-added it, keeps that date.
anyone else, is this a know issue?
thanks

go to the dock, trash the ical icon there, then go to the applications folder, and drag a fresh ical icon to the dock.
also would be a good idea to do a software update before that if your the OS in your profile is correct
hope this helps

10.10.2 Security Update reconfigures dock

Since installing security update 2015-003, safari 8.0.4 and iphoto 9.6.1 on March 20, 2015, my Dock resets to a default confirmation at boot. This destroys any adds or deletes of apps I make to the Dock. any ideas?
MacBook Pro 17ich (Early 2011)
8 GB Memory
Yosemite 10.10.2

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
resetp
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

IOS update makes docking station incompatible (JBL OnStage 200ID)

Hi,
I have been using the iPod/iPhone docking station JBL OnStage 200 ID for quite a while, and was also very happy with it. Since I updated my iPhone 4 and 2nd generation iPod Touch to iOS 4.2 a while ago, the dock doesn't work as it did before. Both devices still play music through the dock, but do not charge anymore, and display messages that the connected peripheral is "unsupported".
I could cope with the pop-up messages, but I really need the dock to charge the devices. Has anyone of you experienced the same problem with a JBL device, or even found a solution to the problem? I thought, this would be something a firmware update of the docking station could fix, but according to the JBL support "they are not responsible for what Apple breaks in their software updates" ... Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Alex.

Updated to Snow Leopard (Got all software updates) and dock randomly disappears?

Extra info: Cannot minimise things as there is nowhere to minimise them to
Havn't seen any part of the dock since updated from Leo to S-Leo
PLEASE HELP!

Go to System Preferences, select Dock.
For the sliders, put them in the middle, about halfway between min/max and small/large. Make sure the "automatically hide and show the dock" is UNCHECKED.
If you still have the problem after doing that, check to see if other users/logins on the computer have the same issue. If they show the dock ok, and it is only your login that has the problem, then go to your username/Library folder, and open the Preferences folder inside of it. Move all files that are com.apple.dock.* to the desktop and restart. If the problem is fixed, then put those files in the trash, otherwise move them back to where they were.
If all users have the problem, go to your hard drive Library folder (not the one inside a user's folder) and open it, then open Preferences folder, then move all com.apple.dock*.* files to the desktop, restart, and see if the problem is fixed. If it is, put those files in the trash, otherwise restore them to where they were.

After running the security update my dock has dissappeared

I just ran the latest security update, restarted, and the dock has gone. Checked all of the basics and by all accounts the dock should be visible but it isn't.
I would appreciate a little assistance.

Why downloading updates is inherently safer than using System Update
Some people recommend rather elaborate procedures: back up before updating; both before and after updating, clear caches, repair permissions, and run DiskWarrior; and so forth. None of this is likely to do any harm, but if updating is made overly complicated, users won't do it at all or, even worse, will just be confused.
On the other hand, it is reasonable to accept the premise that Apple's Software Update, as presently implemented, is inherently dangerous. An application is going to download important system components and replace my existing components with them, while I'm actually using the computer? You've got to be kidding! In fact, the goal during system component installation should be just the opposite, namely, to minimize use of the computer during installation.
Based on that premise, here are is a simple, minimalist procedure for performing system updates.
[Note: This procedure cannot guarantee that a system update will not break, or appear to break, some functionality of your computer. System updates can be badly written; and even when they are well written, computers are complicated, and Apple can't predict every possible contingency and configuration.]
1. General principles.
1. Leave all Apple-installed components where they are. Don't, for example, move Safari out of /Applications, or move your user Home folder.
2. In System Preferences > Software Update, make certain that "Download important updates in the background" is not checked. If your computer has multiple users, do this for every user. It might also be wise to uncheck "Check for updates"; one user, the administrator, should then be responsible for checking manually for updates from time to time. (To do so, choose Apple > Software Update.)
2. When an update is available in Software Update, do not press the Install button in the Software Update window. Instead, download any desired update packages individually and without actually performing the installation. Software Update allows you to do so, but this feature is not at all obvious, so here are instructions:
1. Make sure there is a checkmark at the left of all and only the packages you want to download.
2. Choose Update > Download Only. After performing the download(s), note the location, on your hard drive, of the downloaded material.
3. [Note: Alternatively, go to http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ and click the download link for the desired package. In the case of major system updates, this is the way to obtain the full "combo update", which is often better than the incremental update offered by Software Update.]
4. Restart into Safe mode, by holding down the Shift key from the moment you hear the startup "bong" to the moment the "spinning gear" appears. Expect this startup to take longer than usual. Don't be alarmed if the fans whir loudly during the "spinning gear" display. Eventually you will be presented with the Safe Boot login screen. Log in as the administrator.
5. Without launching any other applications, double-click one installer package and perform the installation. Do nothing else; just sit there and wait until the installation is complete.
6. Repeat step 3 after every installation. Finally, restart normally. This, too, may take longer than usual, and you may experience a "double-restart." Be patient!

New iOS update = no docking station compatability...!!

After the 6.1 iOS update my iPhone4 no longer works with my iLive docking station. It doesn't charge or play my music through the dock's speakers. I tried restarting my phone and it still doesn't work. I put a friend's iPod on the dock and that worked fine. So I know it has something to do with this update. Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions?? This is really frustrating...

I have the same issue with a philips AJ7040D. just purchased from amazon. The dock alarm clock does not recognize my iphone 4s with ios 6.1.1. Error : "this accessory is not supported by iphone" message shows up on the iphone. Called Philips support and they said the AJ7040D is no longer compatable with 6.1.1.

10.4.4. update causes dock and other problems

I posed this in the Dock/Finder forum but haven't had any reply - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=322394&tstart=0
If anybody had any suggestions on how to fix it I would be very grateful.
I have resintalled the update, repaired permissions etc.

Changed icons won't update in dock

so, i changed the folder icons for my Applications, Documents and Downloads folders which all appear in my dock. if i select "display as folder" the new icon will appear. however, when i shutdown and reboot, the icons do not display and only the default folder icon appears.
any suggestions?

recreate those stacks from scratch. The icons should stick after that and survive the reboots.

Latest Leopard update (2012-004) reliably breaks drive (mini 1,1)

Title says it all. I've got an older mac mini 1,1 (core duo, circa 2006) running 10.6 and the latest update 2012-004 trashes the HD's node structure to the point repair isn't possible. And I've been able to reproduce it 3 times now. DU when booted from the Leopard disk is unable to repair or even format the drive (OCZ SSD). I am able to format, but not repair from a MBP. The errors I am seeing are 'Invalid Node Structure' and at least once an 'Invalid B- tree node size' error.
Once I get the SSD formatted and verified, I've been using SuperDuper to copy back from the older HD. One thing I haven't done is a complete reinstall. I'll hold off and see if I get any ideas as to what's causing this or a possible fix. The SSD is only a few months old, but an older EOL'd model (Vertex Plus 3.0Gbps) and the firmware is current. Thanks for any help!

Solved by workaround! One error, I mistakenenly said it's running Leopard, it's Snow Leopard. I received a note from OCZ stating the issue is caused by an unacknolwedged Apple bug in the update (2012-004) that effects some SSD's from a handful of manufacturers. If true, it's a mystery why I can't find anything about it online since SL still has a solid user base.
Workaroud was to install the update on a spinning drive and then clone the drive back to the SSD. Working great now!

Error after 1.1.1 update. iPhone/dock says "Accessory is not made to work..

"This accessory is not made to work with the iPhone" when it's in the Apple dock....
The option is to turn on Airplane Mode....
Whatsup with that??

I have the same problem, standard connector/stand that came with the iPhone hooked directly to the usb port on my MBP. Stupid iPhone doesn't recognize it's own dock. No hacks, no jailbreak or anything ever done to the phone.
