10.5.3 puts processes into "Uninterruptible wait" (U) state.
Umm. I have a MacBook and a PowerMac G4/400 AGP.
I never had any noticeable problems with either.
I've had the G4 since Q3 2001 and the MacBook since October 2007.
Since I updated to 10.5.3 I experienced processes dropping into the U state, which seems to be pretty bad and I'm not sure I've ever had this happen on Mac OS X or Linux (D state is Linux equivalent) in all my years of experience. Basically, it's impossible to kill the process even with "kill -9" and the computer won't shut down cleanly and I have to hold down the power button to stop the computer.
This has only happened with programs that are heavy on disk I/O such as web browsers that use lots of files for cache (Firefox, not Safari), rsync, and make jobs.
My MacBook only has one non-apple kernel extension (logitech mouse) and the G4 has none installed so this likely isn't anyone's fault but the OS and hardware vendor's.
Is anyone else suffering from this or does anyone know if there's something wrong with me?
I've experienced this problem some more.
This time it has happened to two different processes.
If I run "ps ax | grep -E ' U'" right now I get:
27 ?? Us 0:13.49 /usr/sbin/update
1677 s000 U+ 0:01.79 svn up
I've sampled the processes and subversion is hanging on a call to "open$UNIX2003" and update is hanging on a call to "sync".

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
Good luck! -
Putting message into send queue failed
Putting message into send queue failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.DuplicateMessageException: Message Id 8fd8ebf2-14dc-498c-26d4-fa83a612df8f(OUTBOUND) already exists in duplicate check table: com.sap.sql.DuplicateKeyException: Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__BC_MSG_DUP_CHECK__0CB1C3F7'.

I get the above error for one of my interface.
The scenario is simple lift and shift using integrated scenario.
I am unable to figure out reason for the above error.
Regards,
Lalit Mohan Gupta.Hi Lalit Mohan Gupta,
It seems like you have a problem with duplicate Message IDs (GUID). This can happen if you do not let SAP PI generate the message ID for the message being processed, but is relying on an external system to provide you with the message ID.
In any case. I don't think you will succeed with getting the message processed, because of the duplicate message ID constraint in SAP PI. But you need to be aware that depending on how your SAP PI has been setup to handle archiving/deletion of messages in Java-stack, you could potentially run into the situation, where SAP PI removes the initial message from its database and by that enables processing of the duplicate message ID.
Best regards,

Anyone have any ideas on how to get an Ipod touch to charge or sync without putting it into restore mode, I've prettymuch tried everything thats been put online so far
Tried DFU mode?
To do this follow these instructions:
1. First, Open up iTunes, plug in your iPod Touch/iPhone to the Computer's USB port. Turn on your Computer's speaker and make sure it is loud enough that you can hear it.
2. Hold down the Home button (top left for iPod Touch and top right for the iPhone with the screen facing you) and the Power button (located on the front bottom of your iPod Touch/iPhone) simutaneously, until the screen goes black and the device turns off. (past the red slider/slide to power off screen)
3. Now let go of the Power button, but continue to hold the Home button. Your iPod Touch/iPhone should have turned off and the screen should not be on.
4. After around ~10-20 seconds, you will hear a noise (beep/ding) from your Computer as if it had just recognized a new hardware device, now iTunes should recognize it in DFU mode.
5. After iTunes recognizes the iPod Touch/iPhone, let go of the Home button otherwise it will go into recovery mode and you will have to do the entire DFU process over again.
6. You will know when you have put your iPod Touch/iPhone correctly into DFU mode when the display is blank and that you do not have anything on your device.
Once you have done this click restore and iTunes sould start to dowbnload and install the latest firmware.
#Please note this will reset your iDevice to factory settings

how do you put iTunes into CD format?? also what does this do and does it include songs you bought?
Dell Windows 2000So you want to burn a CD?
First, make a playlist.
Then, insert the blank CD into the drive.
Wait for the CD to register in iTunes, then click the Burn Disk on the top right of the screen.
I hope this helps!
Also, since this is an iTunes question, it is always wise to post it in the iTunes forums, as you will get more help in there. -

my iphone 4 has switched off by itself and won't switch back on. The battery wasn't dead, I have tried restarting it and have tried to put it into recovery mode but it still won't switch back on?
Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

Putting it into standby before switching off
I'm using ATV without a monitor and controlled through Remote app.
At present I do not have a way to put it into standby before switching it off.
It does not seem to spin down unless put into standby.
Does anyone know if I could program a 3rd party remote to switch the ATV into standby?
Failing that should I just wait for the nice people at "Remote" or iTunes to program a button for that.I'm just lazy and don't close down applications as often as I should.
More honestly (although I don't close applications often enough when I've finished with them) it's more because I do a lot of video editing. -
How do I put text into an Edge File that clients can edit easily afterwards
Hi
Can anyone explain how I can put text into an edge file (styled with google fonts) and make it so that clients can access the text and update the text as they require?
Previous suggestion was dynamically loading a .txt file - any instructions would be most appreciated.
Thanks.Hi Resdesign!
Your code is very useful to learn how to use Json in Adobe Edge Animate!
But I have a question: why you use ( i ) as argument of the function UpdateInfo and when you recall it you use ( index )?
$.getJSON('slides.json', function(data){
//for(var i=0; i<data.length; i++){
function updateInfo(i){
sym.$("photo").css({"background-image": "url('"+data[i].image+"')"});
sym.$("pillar").html(data[i].pillar);
sym.$("what").html(data[i].what);
// position
index = -1;
sym.$("btn").click(function(){
index++;
if (index>=5){
index = 0;
updateInfo(index);
Many thanks for your attention!

i am trying to put music into my 3rd gen ipod touch and older ipod shuffle but neither are popping up on itunes, what could be the problem?
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I got an iPhone 4 on Thursday.
I connected it to my PC, a Windows Vista, that day and nothing showed up besides a "camera."
My computer picked it up as a camera, which I understand is a common occurence in the iPhone.
After browsing countless youtube videos and Apple Forum Questions, nothing helped.
I put it into recovery mode by holding on the power and menu button, but when I opened iTunes it still didn't detect anything.
I feel like I'm almost hurting my iPhone because I turned it off and on so many times, and plugged it in and out several times, and so forth.
Here is what happened after putting it into recovery mode: 1. A Windows "device locator" popped up. 2. It was looking for a solution to help me with the unknown device, or iPhone. 3. I clicked onto the find solution button, and it told me that I needed a disc.
--- I didn't have a disc, so I looked up this problem and it told me to manually find Apple mobile device support on my driver, so I did.---
4. I then went onto Control Panel and clicked on SYSTEM and MAINTENANCE and went to DEVICE MANAGER.
5. There I found my iPhone listed under USB controllers.
6. I uninstalled and installed it several times.
7. I then manually found a program to ease the problem. The program was "apple mobile device support," which was located on my apple driver.
8. Nothing happened, besides it reporting to me that Apple USB was found and that "code 39" or "code 1" was in the way.
9. I didn't know what to do with this....
By this time, I was about to give up on my iPhone and return it back to the store.
I tried again, but in a different way this time.
1. I put it back into recovery mode and I opened itunes.
2. itunes reported to me that some burning or CD/Drive software was missing and that I needed to reinstall it.
3. SO, I reinstalled it several times, about 12 (iTunes), and nothing changed.
4. I then looked up the problem of why the CD/Drive software problem kept popping up.
5. I fixed it by going to my registry and adding an UpperFilter with the code GEARaspi...something like that.
6. The problem was fixed, but still no iPhone onto my itunes.
I stayed up all night last night to fix this problem...I'm annoyed and tired.
I tried another problem to fix this.
1. I didn't put it into recovery mode.
2. My iPhone showed up under portable devices under "device manager," from SYS/MAIN"
3. I did update software.
4. I clicked on "apple mobile device support" but nothing happened.
5. It reported to me of the Code thing again.
I even called the Apple people and they didn't know what to do, so I stopped calling them...because they only had limited options to fix the problem.
Can anyone help me?There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it. -

When I download firefox, using recommended setting, or my own, all the sub files/folders like plugins, modules, updater end up on the desktop as well as in the file location. And when I try to put them into the file location, they don't. And when I delete them, FireFox won't open. I tried deleting FireFox and reinstalling it multiple times, and a message pops up sometimes that says FireFox may not have installed correctly, so I follow the steps, but all the extra icons on my desktop don't go away. This has happened every time I have downloaded FireFox. The browser itself works, but I need to know how to get rid of these icons, but still be able to use FireFox. This is on a new computer, with Windows 7.

How do I put data into a template using the Labview report generation toolkit for Microsoft Office?
I am running Lookout 5.0 and have recently purchased the Labview Report Generation Toolkit for Microsoft Office to create reports from my Lookout logged data. Since I have never used Labview I am having my problems. I tried following the tutorials but they do not seem to be examples of what I want to do.
I log rainfall totals (1 spreadsheet)in Lookout from 40 different sites in 5 minute increments. I copy these totals and paste them into another spreadsheet which sums them up to give me hourly totals and then paste those totals into a spreadsheet for distribution.
In Labview I create a new report and use the distribution sheet as my template, but how do I complete
the steps of loading the raw 5 minute data into labview and then paste it into the hourly total spreadsheet and then transfer those totals into the distribution template?
I have been trying to figure this out for over a week, and I am getting nowhere.
Any response would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jason P
Jason PhillipsLookout saves the files in .csv form which can be opened in Excel. I did make some progress by using the "append table to report" vi which allowed me to put values into an array and then those values were entered into my template on my report vi.
Where I am stuck now is I want to be able to put values into my template from a .csv file, not from an array I have to manually put numbers in.
Once those values are in my template I want to pull summed values from the template and place them into a final excel file for printing.
I have attached examples of the files I am working with to help you better understand what I am trying to do.
I hope that makes sense.
