10.4.7 MLTE black box problem

Hi all
Anyone get a black MLTE box problem after the 10.4.7 upgrade?
The multilingual text engine in the open source game Aleph One after the upgrade to 10.4.7 - shows a black box in the chat area. It is not always a problem - about 30% of the games I start seem to have it.
Thanks

I just recieved an email from F-Secure, after I told them, that no attachments sent from Mail (after 10.4.7) go through to F-Secure / Windows users.
They have investigated the problem and reported this:
The attachments MIME header has the following fields: name and filename.
For some reason Mail removes the blank spaces from the name field but leaves the filename field untouched. These differences in the fields make F-Secure remove the attachment (alarm).
One "fix" is removing the blank spaces from the filename, for example File 1.pdf >> File1.pdf. But this in not easy computing. Everything works just fine with 10.4.6 and before, but 10.4.7 >> is causing the problems.

  • Problem with .png images being black boxes in InDesign

    Hello,
    I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with a problem I'm having with some .png files.  When I try to place certain .png files in my InDesign document, they come in as just black boxes.  The .png files are created by a third party application, (EditLive w/MathFlow)  But if I view the .png files in Fireworks or other image viewers, they appear to be fine.  I have tried looking at the image properties inside InDesign, to see if by tweaking them it might work, but I am not a graphic designer by trade so my knowledge is rather limited.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Specs:
    Windows XP
    CS4 Suite including:
         Adobe InDesign CS4
         Fireworks CS4
    Thanks,
    Josh

    That worked!  Mostly.  The little preview box on the file upload dialog still shows a black box.  But when the image is placed inside the doc it looks perfect.  Well, as perfect as the .png can look.
    Is there any way within InDesign to "ignore" the alpha channel or whatever of the graphic?  I have access to the IDML as well as the normal application interface & the SDK through the InDesign Server.  I'd prefer not to be reliant on opening the image in another tool, as we have a large number of images to process some times & it could get annoying.  If not, I can try contacting the 3rd party group that is generating the .png & see if they can better handle the alpha channel when they're creating the image maybe...
    And thanks for the quick responses!

  • Problem printing flash pages - black box

    Hello,
    I am trying to help someone else in our office who is having
    a problem with swf pages converted from PDF documents. The PDFs
    were made from either Quark or Indesign documents. The pages
    contain graphics, some of which are bitmap (one-color) images. All
    looks good on screen when displayed in a browser, but when printed
    the graphics become black boxes, as though a black background were
    added to the image. Does anyone know why this is happening or can
    someone suggest a workaround? We have thousands of pages that need
    to print from our user's browsers but find we are plagued with this
    issue. The weird thing is, I found that some of the bitmap images
    were fine while most of them were bad. I used PitStop professional
    to examine the PDFs and there is nothing different about the images
    there.
    Regards,
    Len Swierski

    Anybody figure this out???
    We're having the same problem too. All of our flash paper
    documents are being converted from PDFs that orignally came from
    Quark or Indesign. The art department figured out that they could
    fix the problem by converting the bitmaps to grayscale. (Our pages
    are black and white anyway) We also found out that different
    versions of acrobat could fix the probelm. Somtimes version 7 would
    work and sometimes version 4 would work. A lot of trial and error
    and wasting paper.

  • How to How to install ATI Radeon HD2600 driver on bootcamp 3.0 windows 7 partition w/black screen problem

    Ok....so i've posted this question in a different way, and i gotten several "scratch the surface" answers from people just saying to install "Ati catalyst", or insert the os x dvd and run set up.exe, and update  to boot camp 3.1 or 3.2...while these all seem like great suggestions, I am finding myself needing more specific direction or "hand holding" so to speak.....here is the MAIN problem...
    The Background/history
    I used boot camp (3.0, and i found updates for 3.1 for imac and for windows, but can't find for mac pro, AND they all are ".exe" files which run on windows..which as you'll see is the big part of my problem...So I recently updated my mac pro (with the ATI Radeon HD2600 graphic PCIe card with 10.6.7 from 10.5.8.  I created a single partitioned drive to install windows 7 professional 64 bit.  The download software function didn't work (Thanks, APPLE for that poor level of support) so have to select the option that i have already downloaded, or have other media with the drivers already on it....i restarted with the windows 7 disk in.... 
    The installation of Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
    So the installation of windows 7 seemed to go flawlessly, was able to use my existing 23" hd apple cinema display (so somehow it has drivers that work with the graphics card, or maybe the motherboard's on board video components) and i select english, and install now, custom, blah, blah, blah...installation causes a few reboots, then restarts ultimately back in os x since that is the default boot os i use on this desk top and have to do the "opt" button to select booting in windows....so when i try restarting in windows, now using the actual boot drive on which i am installing it, it ran through another reboot or two, but then after that, my display goes black....  in the communities, the solution sounds super simple... "go download the ATI catalyst for the black screen problem....windows 7 doesn't have device drivers that work with the ATI radeon hd2600...no problem, just go download and install...."
    The problem, re-emphasized :  I cannot even finish the install for windows, because of this driver problem....i cannot see anything....I have tried to reboot in safe mode, and that then seems to invoke whatever basic drivers that do work, likely through the motherboards onboard video vs the actual graphic card, and the screen works and says that it's wanting to complete the installation, so i'm thinking awesome this is gonna work....and then.. "windows installation was not completed and cannot be completed in SAFE MODE, need to restart, blah, blah, blah" pops up...and forces reboot...so Safe Mode allows me to see, but won't allow me to finish the install of windows 7...and without completing the install i can't run (ranther I DONT KNOW HOW TO) any of the various .exe files everyone is telling me are the solutions to my problem...like update 3.1 and 3.2 bootcamp...they're all .exe files?  not sure why, because bootcamp runs in 10.6.7 i thought, but whatever...it needs running Windows to execute...then the ATI radeon hd2600 driver for windows 7 that i downloaded from the site has an installation program that is an .exe file, which needs windows to run...  Does this make sense, why i can't just use these fixes, that seem to be the only fixes out there....so can someone school me step by step here (not just the highlights) of how to update bootcamp, and how to install the ati radeon driver  without having been able to complete the windows 7 installation because the monitor goes and stays black????
    This is so very frustrating for the record...and any substantial help "not just go download this..." would be immensely appreciated.
    Some other things i've been told to try that i've tried and nothing seems to happen as i'm told it will....
    ---I've been told to install the osx dvd and run "setup.exe"  - AGAIN...it's an exe file...and 2 - when i put in the os x file it just wants to re install 10.6...so need more help if this is even a real solution to understand how to make it work...
    ---I've been told to update boot camp to 3.1 and/or 3.2 from 3.0, using Apple Software Update....Well, my software update is saying everything is up to date and there is nothing new to download at all, and when i reverify the bootcamp version it is still only 3.0.2...and again downloading the updates from www.apple.com/support/  for 3.1 and 3.2...all of those are .exe files...need windows to run them...again, refer to the problem described in detail above...
    ---I've been referred to the black screen on imac early 2011 thread saying it should fix my problem...and reading it it SEEMED like the most promising resolution...it involves creating a boot flash drive for windows 7 and an xml file that sets the imac drivers to auto install during the windows installation..and it got me farther than anything else..but still ultimately ended up in the darned black screen...my assumption is that it's because it's for imac and not mac pro so not ati-radeon specific drivers....ok....that's enough..please...anyone who thinks they can help...your help is desperately needed...thanks so much in advance!

    hey Hatter, thanks so much for getting back...so just to be super clear...is there no way to install the drivers using an exe file given my current state? no way to do it with command prompt or something?  if can make work with existing card, i'd prefer it...now when you say it's 'toast' how do you mean?  it works well with the os x partitions and always has...so i'm not sure i follow, just want to be clear...
    Now to your point of starting with only the one drive installed...so i would put that bootcamp drive in bay 1 and disconnect the rest...i'm not totally sure what you're suggesting the effect should be of doing this?  just that i'm just installing windows without the bootcamp deal...but if windows 7 doesn't support the ati radeon hd2600, it still will go black screen no? or you're saying it will run video through the motherboard if it's the only bootdrive, and will run all the way through the windows install without trying to switch over to the hd2600?  (slrry flr these questions..just really want to make sure i understand what you're telling me..thanks so much for your patience and help by the way...it's very greatly appreciated...your support is priceless!
    So now, assuming none of the above is possible...referring now to the ati 5770 that you referred to...you mention it works with 10.6 well, and that windows 7 supports it ...2 questions on that
         1) Windows 7 supports" meaning, out of the box windows 7 supports it? or will i have to install drivers still through some update, because again, if that's how i have to do it, then won't work, cuz can't start windows to see anything to install any drivers or run any thing at all...so it would have to just work with initial installation.
         2)hardware wise for my Mac Pro 3,1...intel dual quad core xeon, blah blah....will this card work? it's a PCIe and should fit on my board no prob, etc?

  • How can i scroll vertically without the little black box?

         Hello,
    I need to review alot of pdf documents with adobe reader 9.0 or acrobat pro, and i need to be able to move forward and backward fast alot using both the mouse wheel and the scroll bar. I'm having a problem with this.
    When i click "show one page at a time"-button and I use the scroll bar in the right, reader doesnt scroll the through the pages, but instead shows an idiotic little black box on the right thats too small to see pretty much anything from.
    If i use the "scroll through pages continuously"-button, the scroll bar works normally, but the mouse wheel works too slow.
    Using the reader in either way feels like running with a ball and chain in my leg, and I do really believe im not the only one.
    Despite of hours of searching, trial and error I've somehow managed to miss how to remove that black pop-up-thing and scroll normally, when using the "show one page at time".
    Please tell me I can scroll normally with scroll bar while being able to move fast with the wheel, and how do I do it?

    Thanks.
    What i mean in brief:
    In adobe reader you cannot live-scroll with the scroll bar when using the "show one page at a time" setting, but instead it shows a little thumbnail-window on the right. The other setting makes mouse wheel too slow to be useful.
    A scroll bar that doesn't live-scroll is probably one of the most horrible "features" you can have in a program. Since it's in a program as common as adobe reader, im guessing there's alot of frustrated googling going on about it.No answers around though.

  • Help! I can't get rid of this little black box!

    I ordered DSL service and tried to hook it up the other day, unsuccessfully. In the instructions it says that if you have problems to insert the disk provided. I told the lady I ordered from that I had a Mac and she said it would be no problem, but of course no where does it say that this disk is not usable on a Mac.
    You get where this is going I'm sure, I put it in and followed what it said, including restarting the iMac as instructed. After the restart it will do the "bong" sound and I get the initial white screen with the grey apple, but I never get the little grey lines in a wheel shape. After a couple of minutes I get a litte black box about 2" wide and 1/4" tall across the top of the apple with little colored lines in it, and nothing else happens or works. I can't even get the disk drive to open or close without holding the button on the back, turning it off, and then holding the open button while I turn it back on with the button.
    I have restarted using the hardware repair disk, all is fine. I restarted using Disk Warrier, all repaired, but still not working. I restarted using the 10.2 install disk and verified and repaired the disk and permissions, several were repaired, but still the black box. I tried holding the shift key at restart and still the box, and also tried holding the control and "s" key with no luck.
    Of course AT&T knows nothing about the Mac and after talking for 1.5 hours to 5 different people and having a tech guy come and not know anything to help they tell me I have to call Apple to pay for help. I am so frustrated!!! Is there anyone out there with suggestions before I call and pay?
    Many thanks,
    Cassie

    Hi Cassie:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    I have not used OS X 10.2.x for a long time, but I think you should consider and archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    An A&I will install a fresh OS X - hopefully eliminating whatever happened with the AT&T disk. You would, of course, have to update OS X to current levels for 10.2.
    Barry
    P.S. It also occurred to me that AT&T does not support OS X 10.2 - you might ask them that question.

  • Videos on youtube and bbc radio iplayer display a black box instead of the player box.

    so yesterday morning i was using youtube and bbc iplayer fine and then last night they suddenly stopped working and i can't think of any reason why, i haven't updated or made any changes to anything in the last day. the pages load fine but where there was previoulsy the video or in the case of iplayer the picture with the controls on, there is now just a black box. i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling flash player but otherwise don't know what to do!
    i've also tried using internet explorer and have the same problem with this. i've tried to update firefox but cant get it to work, although i imagine this won't help anyway since ive got the same problem in internet explorer.
    Any help would be MUCH appreciated!

    You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

  • Smartform prints out  Black boxes instead of Shade

    Hello Experts,
    I have developed some smartforms which have some boxes that are shaded with grey color for heading.
    They work fine for some existing printers. But when i issue a print out on a new printer i
    see that the shaded boxes are displayed as solid black boxes on the print out.
    I also tried to print it in color but invain. Even the LOGO also got blacked out.
    Can any one suggest me what to do.
    Is it with my smartform or printer settings. Please advice.
    Thanks
    Dany

    Hi
    I don't know if u can't find out a solution.
    All device output (printers) having the same divice type have the same behavior, i.e. printers having a different device type can give a different output, so if u'll correct the problem for a certain group of printers u could have a new problem for other group.
    I think the best soltion is to use the printer used to test the smartforms

  • Facing Black catridge problem within 2 months of purchase HP laserjet p1108 by printing 300 pages.

    Hullo sir,
                    I'm Facing Black catridge problem within 2 months of purchase HP laserjet p1108 by printing 300 pages.The printer window shows you have to print pages < 50.what cani do?

    Hi @thangaraj,
    I see by your post that you have only printed 300 pages and it is now it is showing you have less the 50 pages left.
    I would like to help you resolve this issue.
    Is this the original toner that shipped with the printer?
    You should get approximately 1500 pages according to the specifications for what ships in the box.
    The page count is based on page yield. Depending on what you were printing.
    Still I believe you should have gotten more then 350 pages, unless you were printing full page pictures in black and white.

  • HP laser jet printing has black boxes witers

    I just bought a new HP Laser Jet Pro  MFP M127fn printer.  I have an old version of PrintMaster that I have used for years to print my business cards.  When I try to use this program with the new printer, the words are all in white surrounded by a black box.  A sort of negative print effect.  If I can't solve this problem I'll have to return the printer since I use this software quite often.  I'm hoping for a simple fix.
    Thanks,
    Norm

    >> ... have to return the printer since I use this software quite often ...
    But you might find that you have exactly the same problem with any replacement printer!
    I'm not familiar with PrintMaster, so I don't know how integrated it is with modern (Windows?) printer drivers, or (especially with "an old version") if it doesn't use such drivers at all, but generates the print job directly.
    If it does use modern drivers (i.e. a standard Print dialogue is exposed), then if you capture a sample (sanitised data) job (select the 'print to file' option in the Print dialogue), then analysis of the resultant .prn file might (but may not) yield some clues as to what is going on.
    If the print job Page Description Language is PCL rather than PostScript, you can do the analysis using the PRN File Analyse tool in the PCL Paraphernalia application, available via http://www.pclparaphernalia.eu

  • KVM with mini and out of box problem

    #1 Just bought a refurbed mini, want to share kvm as I have in the past with a wintel laptop.
    Anyone using a kvm controller with their mini? I've got a iogear with my existing wireless k/m and the mini doesn't like it very much. Sporadic mouse movements, and weird mouse type clicks happening when moving around menus(such as right click result on screen when hand isn't near the button).
    I went to a wired mouse for a test as the kvm had a separate usb port for kybd and mouse...that hasn't completely solved the problem.
    #2 I've got a 2nd problem which may be causing the keyboard issues. I unboxed my mini, started it and when prompted hooked up my old g4 mac as a target disk unit. The mini flawlessly transferred over all my email, programs, icon's, etc in a little under 2 hours. Rebooted and logged right in to my old environment! Very impressive. Patched it after that and it rebooted fine.
    The other night, I turned it on, and the screen resolution was changed. Didnt think much of it thinking the kvm may be messing with it.
    Two nights ago I checked my mail and walked away for a while..upon my return it locked. Held pwr key in until it shutdown and went to bed. Last night I turned it on, got the "Osx has recovered.." message. Cleared that and as soon as I opened mail it crashed again(getting the your computer has encountered a problem black box error..). Restarted tried my IM client...crash.... reboot, try firefox...crash.
    I haven't tried booting and repairing disk permissions yet. Any other thoughts?
    thanks

    I use a TrendNet KVM with my Mini and PC.
    Empirically I've concluded that a wireless mouse is not a good idea with this setup; I use a wired USB mouse now.
    I had to try a couple of KVM brands before I found a good fit. Even so, occasionally I get a key repeat from a single key press, but otherwise everything is fine.
    My experience has been that any kind of PS/2->USB adapter used with a KVM is a bad idea. The fewer converters the better.
    I'd recommend not using the KVM until you get your other issues with the Mini sorted out.
    It is possible that migrating your settings from other Mac is causing some of your problems.

  • How can I install Adobe flash player on my Mac using Safari OR Chrome? I have gone through every step on all of the help pages. The installation process always stops with the black box that briefly says, "Retrieving Install . . . ", then nothing.

    I have followed every step in the various help pages I was directed to when troubleshooting the inability to install Adobe Flash Player on my Mac using either Safari or Chrome. Everything has failed. I always get the black box that says briefly, "Retrieving instal. . . " and then goes blank. When I close that window, I get the message, "Adobe Flash Player could not be installed." Then it gives some links to follow for troubleshooting. I have followed ALL of the links there and on other help pages, to no avail. I've run into problems installing Adobe before, but it's never been this bad. Would someone please develop another format besides Adobe? Trying to get help from Adobe feels a little like trying to find a building in New York City with no map or GPS. The time required is voluminous, the emotional energy a/k/a frustration is overwhelming, and long before I get anything resolved, I wish the earth would open up and swallow all things Adobe@. Absence that miraculous intervention, I have to figure out what to do next. Does anyone know? Anyone?

  • Document name displayed in semi-opaque black box

    I have an eMac with OS 10.3.9, and occasionally the name of a document I'm working with will show up on the screen and won't go away, even after the document is long closed.
    It shows up in a small black "box" with white lettering that I can see through, but barely.
    It's about 1/3 of the way up the screen and maybe 1/4 in from the left.
    It doesn't slow the computer down at all, but it's very annoying because it covers what I'm working on, and it only goes away if I completely log off.
    Any ideas? it's not an urgent problem, but I would like to fix it because it impedes my work. I do a lot of design work, and it's inconvenient to log off all the time because I have a small box covering my document.
    Thanks,
    Christy

    Hi Christy,
    What application you use when you working in that document?

  • Why a black box (or fuzzy "i") when opening an image?

    In one particular folder in "Events", when I click on an image to open, it opens to a black box or at best a fuzzy "i" - were the image should be, what has happened? All other options appear as normal but if I click "edit"for example - my options become unavailable and still have the black box were the image should be. 
    All other folders in Events are fine and no such problem occurs. In checking "preferences" nothing has changed as the problem folder preferences are the same as the others - likewise not aware I've changed anything either. I've gone into 'help" but just cannot find anything there unless I'm looking into the wrong place?
    Currently I'm on OS "X" 10.6.8 using iPhoto 09  - 8.1.2 (424) which hopefully will assist too?

    In your first post:
    In one particular folder in "Events", when I click on an image to open, it opens to a black box or at best a fuzzy "i"
    In your most recent post
    Currently no ! appears now, just a black box.
    These are different issues with potentially different resolutions. Assuming that there is no exclamation mark warning, but just a black screen:
    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    but this is just one folder with 211 images - all other folders are fine and working as expected. Reading what you have written, you are referring to the whole library which seems to be extreme?
    This is not just one folder or just 211 images. What you are seeing are symptoms of an issue in the Database file. If this file is damaged then your Library is damaged and this is what needs to be fixed. That's why deleting and re-importing won't help. You'll be re-importing to a database that is known to be damaged and unstable.

  • Flickering black boxes on CS6 with Macbook Pro Intel Iris

    I'm experiencing a flickering black box whenever using large brush sizes on Photoshop CS6 using a Macbook Pro (16GB RAM, 2.8 GHz i7, Intel Iris, Late 2013 13") similar to what is shown on: black flickering boxes on Vimeo.  The issue stops if you: Preferences -> Performance -> Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor."  I've contacted Apple Care multiple times and they say it is an Adobe issue.  I've attempted uninstalling/reinstalling CS6, resetting NVRAM and SMC, and verified CS6 and System settings are all up-to-date.  When booting in Safe Mode the issue is also resolved (as it appears Graphics Processor is disabled).  There appears to have been a similar issue on the 2013 Macbook Air that Apple released a fix for (MacBook Air (Mid 2013) Software Update 1.0) but I do not see anything regarding the Macbook Pro line.  Anyone experience/resolve this issue? 

    Professional engineers would look at the report, even if it happens in a single application, because usually that one application is just more commonly used and exposes an existing problem that is only occasionally seen in other applications.  (hint: the OS and video card drivers draw the cursor, not the application, so the driver and OS are responsible for drawing glitches with the cursor)
    And for us to write up a bug for Apple, we need a reproducible case - but we can't reproduce it on our systems. Apple needs information about your system to see what specific GPU/CPU configuration is affected by this driver bug (and they have all the hardware variants to try it on).
    And we have been testing for similar issues since the MacBookAir cursor bugs appeared - but haven't seen any after Apple's patch, despite testing on all the systems we have available (which is quite a few, but we can't have every single possible Macintosh configuration).

Maybe you are looking for
