10.5.3 upgrade not working well

I upgraded on Sunday and now every 1-30 minutes after I power on I get message that the system needs to restart. Upon restarting I get a message about sending a dump to apple which I do. When I read the details so far these 4 programs have been the offender: safari, firefox, finder, and handbrake. I had no problems with 10.5.2 and because of the different programs it makes me think it is an OS issue. My next step is to restore to 10.5.2, but wanted to see if anyone had any ideas. Should I call apple first? I have not called them before.
One other question, with other unix version's (AIX, redhat, solaris, hpux) you can remove patches. Why can't OSX do this? One reason I went to apple was because of the unix feel.

Is Handbrake fully compatible with 10.5.3?
I have had no such issues with 10.5.3

That's why there are different OS manufacturers. They have different ideas about what an OS should be and should do. Leopard is not Unix.
If you use SuperDuper you can easily restore to a previous system in a very short time, otherwise you can use TM.
However, your problem is not directly related to 10.5.3 but most likely a software conflict.
Did you run DU and repair HD and permissions before updating?
You might do it now and see if it helps, but it's best to do it before an update.

  • Safari 5.0.6 upgrade not working well....was fine before upgrade...

    hello.
    Safari doesn't run well since the upgrade to 5.0.6.
    It's really noticeable on youtube videos, which used to play fine.
    Now, any and all videos on that site hang really badly......almost to the point of freezing the entire safari app.
    There are other issues too, but this is the most noticeable.
    I've read that 5.0.6 is compatible with leopard 10.5.8.
    I'm still on a power pc G5 quad. Plenty of ram. Does this make a difference?
    Do i need to downgrade safari? Everything else is fine except for safari 5.0.6.
    thank you!

    i guess the kinks are being worked out.

  • My Ipone 3gs do not work well with iOS 6, can I go back to an earlier version?

    Hi
    I have always (maybe stupid!) updated my iOS version when itunes has proposed it, thinking my old iPhone 3 should work better. It is now clear for me that it is not the case!
    Can I go back to an earlier version so I can use the phone as it was meant to work?
    Have read something about if you have not save the "protocol" from an earlier version it is impossible!
    The question is also justified for all my other iPhones and Pad in my family, should I stop updates iOS versions on them as oblivious thy are becoming useless with the time, or?
    Best reg. Bilo

    Hi, excellent with all quick answers!
    It was not really meant to be rude to wjosten, but his answer was really short, short and did not help me with my problem.
    I'm surprised to hear that your 3gs is working well!
    My main reason to continue with my 3 gs (I have a iphone 5 also) is to use the GPS function in it. but from the moment I upgrade it to iOS 6.0.1 the GPS is not working well. I can not say if it is becase it is too slove or something is not supporting it. It does not matter if I use it in combination with Google Maps our my TomTom app.
    It is loosing the GPS all the time.
    The second problem is also that the 3gs is not working anymore in the TomTom car mounth holder.
    TomTom are making them so they are only working for iphone 3 (so my other 2 iphone 4 have never worked in it, but it  is in that way).
    I do not know if it is the TomTom software which is not supported by iOS6 or what...
    As I can only use the holder for my 3gs it is awast if the mobil is not working...

  • I have a 2010 mac book pro and track pad is not working well, is there a problem with that year?

    I have a 2010 mac book pro and track pad is not working well, is there a problem with that year. I heard that the 2011's had track pad trouble.

    All recent versions of Mac OS X use bash, so avoiding Mavericks won't help you with that problem (which isn't a problem for most users).
    iWeb is another matter. My advise: migrate your website to Wordpress first and start thinking about upgrades later.

  • IOS6 cell data not working well

    Ever since upgrading to iOS6 my cell data is not working well. Sometimes it works great and sometimes it wont work all day long. I generally have Wifi around so it hasn't been a huge deal, but when I am out and about it gets annoying really quick. Things I've tried when the phone's data is not working:
    Go into my phone's settings turn cell data off, and then back on
    Turning the phone off
    Resting my phone's network settings
    Does anyone have suggestions about this?

    take the SIM card out and re-seat it.
    Call AT&T and see if they see any issues on their end.
    Contact Apple support;.

    I can not get email from my exchange account.
    Any suggestion?

    Just had this issue.  I turned WIFI off and it connected fine.  Then turned WIFI back on and working as always.
    It had something to do with the WIFI conflicting with the exchange server.

    Hi my name is Silvana Pires,I purchased an I Phone 4 S Model A 1387 EMC 2430 SCC.ID DCG E
    2430 AIC.579 C-E 243 A in California one year ago,Unfortunately its Not working well the screen is getting black,and the phone is in good shape I can prove it,the Apple support in Brazil doenst work like in USA.
    I look forward to your reply and a resolution of this problem.
    Thank you very much!!!

    You are welcome. I'm glad you got it back up.
    (1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
    (2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
    (3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
    (4) Add some SARE rules:
    Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
    70sareadult.cf
    70saregenlsubj0.cf
    70sareheader0.cf
    70sarehtml0.cf
    70sareobfu0.cf
    70sareoem.cf
    70sarespoof.cf
    70sarestocks.cf
    70sareunsub.cf
    72sare_redirectpost
    Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
    backhair.cf
    bogus-virus-warnings.cf
    chickenpox.cf
    weeds.cf
    Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
    Then stop and restart mail services.
    There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck!

  • Safari 5.1.1 I no longer have access to my bookmark folders, just a search that does not work well. How can I retrieve access to bookmark folders?

    OS 10.6.8 Safari 5.1.1 I no longer have access to the bookmark folders. There is just a search function that does not work well. Is there any way to get access back to my bookmark folders?

  • Why ps3 is not working well with airport

    why ps3 does not work well wth the airport?

    If you are referring to online gaming, then PS3 like all non-apple devices uses upnp to open ports.
    Apple uses NAT-PMP to open ports.. East and West.. never the twain shall meet.
    If it is internal wireless issues.. that is different.. airport should be just like any other wireless router.
    If you tell us the issue we have more hope to help.

  • I have to reinstall Mail as it's not working well. How can I make a back up of my emails so as not to lose them all?

    I have to reinstall Mail as it's not working well. How can I make a back up of my emails so as not to lose them all?

    Thank you for your time Woody. Recently the Mac seems to freeze a lot, seemingly due to a problem with the airport, especially if the computer is inactive for anything more than a few minutes. Then yesterday I suddenly couldn't send or receive messages so I got in touch with my server and they reconfigured the mail account. I can now receive messages but can't send them, always getting a timed out message when I try to send an email. I phoned the server again and they said it must be a problem with Mail as we tried sending a message online from the server's webpage and it worked fine, so they suggested I reinstall Mail. So hence my original question. Sorry for the rambling! I'm not very computer minded.

  • New FocusTraversalPolicy Mechanism Does Not Work Well With OO Designs

    I would like to complain about the new focus traversal mechanism not working well with object-oriented GUI designs.
    Specifically, we have many reusable panel classes that can be swapped in and out of reusable dialog classes. On some of these panels, the default focus traversal is not what is desirable, perhaps because one component on the right side of the window is just slightly higher than a component on the left side, maybe due to the component on the right having a label on top, and so the default focus goes to the component on the right instead of the left. So we have a need to be able to explicitly define the order of components in some panels.
    If I try to define a focus traversal policy in the panel's constructor, a NullPointerException is thrown because the panel's focus cycle root is null (the panel has not been added to any dialog or frame yet).
    If I try to associate a focus traversal policy at the dialog level, it would have to explicitly reference its child panels' inner components, which would break the encapsulation of the panels. It would also make it hard to have generic dialog classes into which various reusable panel objects can be swapped.
    Someone suggested making each panel a focus cycle root. This makes it hard to "break out" of one panel to move on to the next panel in the dialog. Special keys would have to be assigned to try to cycle out, and these keys would have to be different than the normal traversal keys, making them inconsistent and nonintuitive to the user. Also, the focus policy would have to know if the dialog had more than one panel, what order the panels were in to know whether to cycle to the next panel or not, etc. This is a mess.
    Does anyone have any idea how to get around these problems? I have tried using a global focus policy with a global hash map of prev/next component key-value pairs, but we are still running into trouble with some deeply nested tabbed dialogs. It's just not possible to always have the focus cycle root in existence at the point where you want to explicitly define traversal between two components, or when you are trying to establish the default component for a panel in a tabbed pane.
    Has anyone else run into similar issues?
    Robbie Gilbert
    [email protected]

    I agree completely. One of the popular consultants on this forum stated that the new focus mechanism was more versatile and only a little more complex. I would say it's more than a little complex given the trouble average programmers are having understanding how it works...at least at first...and after understanding it realizing that they are going to have type their fingers off to update their code. Oh, and the dread of maintaining this awful mess.
    I'm currently having the same problem as you Robbie. Some of my reusable panels need special tab ordering...that's not usually a problem, in most programming environments, till now. Now I have to go around the world and back just to get my stupid cursor to be in the right place when I hit the tab key??!!! and special key mappings just to get out of a focus cycle...lame.
    And how is an IDE graphical designer going to work with this? It's not, that's how...ok maybe if some kind person or company creates a custom focus traversal policy editor of some kind, I don't know.
    Good grief Sun! We need something to help us meet our deadlines, not solutions that force us to spend 80% of our time customizing every stinking bit of UI functionality we need!!!
    JTables are even worse. I've mastered most of the garbage that is JTable after many months of pain and I don't know how I'm going to help my peers understand them in any short amount of time. Most of them were Oracle Forms programmers, not that that is any great solution either. But they will likely have problems.
    In conclusion, I wish I had chosen another UI technology for our new product client, and may yet.

  • Fan is not working well of a pavilion g6

    when starting up my laptop, it reports that my fan is not working well and when it remains on for about 10minutes it starts to be hot at the position where the fan is located. the problem just started.

    Hello
    could you sense the fan is running by hearing and hot air blow out from air vent?
    1) if fan is running and running faster when hot, it means fan is working. please check if anything block the air vent or air intake. only Air can flow freely, it can cooling down the CPU.
    2) If Fan is running and air vent is not block and unit is been used long time, maybe the dust. if you have skill, please clean dust, it need remove some cover to disclose fan/heatsink.
    3) update BIOS to latest. of course Fan need to replaced if it is not run, but the running Fan usually don't need to be replaced.
    I work for HP.
