10.5.7 update broke sharing on my G5 PowerPC

So, silly me, I ran the 10.5.7 update on all my machines and now my G5 PowerPC has gone AWOL from the rest of my network and now file sharing and printer sharing are broken.
I have an intel MacBook Pro and intel MacMini which I can connect to with no problems. I am able to navigate all folders and HDDs on them. I also can connect to these two machines from the PowerPC and navigate the HDDs, but the reverse is not true. I can not connect to the PowerPC from either of my other machines. This has really screwed things up for me because my G5 PowerPC is my shared iTunes/iPhoto server and Printer Server. I have a Dell Color Laser attached to this machine and up until this new .7 update I was able to share files and print from any machine with no problems.
Basically what happens is that if I reboot all machines I am able to connect to them all from each other one time only. Then the G5 will suddenly drop off the list from the other computers. The other two computers will still be in the list on the G5 however, and I can still connect to them.
I have run disk verify/repair on all three of these machines and I am stuck. Any suggestions?

Hey nerowolfe,
Thanks for the info, I will try the combo update and see if it resolves my issue. I have tried rebooting all three of my machines and there is no problem with my router. As I mentioned earlier, everything worked fine with all of these machines until I ran this new update.
Yeah, I love my G5 (Last 2.0 dual core model made prior to intel models). I have a 320 GB WD Velociraptor 10K Rpm drive for my main drive and a 1TB WD as a secondary. Also, I have 10GB of Ram and upgraded the video card to a 256Mb AGP.
I have been using MACs for 4-5 years now and I just love my G5 PPC. My rendering times with Kinemac 3D and iMovie are pretty darn quick. Here is an example of an animation clip I did on my G5 for a company called SnapShotz Photobooth Rentals in Los Angeles. (SnapShotz is a photo booth rental company that services weddings, quinceanaras, bar/bat mitzvahs, corporate events, etc.) The clip was made almost entirely with Kinemac and then re-edited with iMovie.
The video clip can be viewed from:

and also on YouTube (be sure to watch the High Quality version) at:

Airport utility 5.3.2 update broke configuration functionality

After upgrading to the newest apple airport utility I can no longer read the configuration of any of my airports. Using an extreme and airport express.
I open the application, it shows my 2 airport networks but when I try to run any kind of configuration on them then it stalls at the 'reading configuration' screen.
This is quite a serious problem for me as this effects a work network that I need to be able to update. This is like the 3rd or 4th time something that was supposed to be an update broke functionality. Very disappointing. If someone is still on the old version, perhaps they could eMail it to me ?
Specs of the effected computer and what it is effecting :
Intel 2.4gz iMac

How often does the Apple TV sync with updated home sharing playlists?

I am trying to use several Apple TV's at my business for content management throughout our campus. I want to be able to have a playlist of pictures and videos that is easy to update. Can anyone tell me how often the Apple TV syncs with the home sharing network for an updated playlist? It would be very inconvenient if the only way was to do a reboot on every device each time content was updated.

Welcome to the Apple community.
I can't really say for sure how often the Apple TV updates its shared libraries.
I do however know that once the Apple TV as completed playing something, it will sync with the shared library in order to update the play count. So I'd be reasonably sure that the shared library is updated at least once every time something is played.

After latest update, screen sharing broken

Installed the iPhoto, Supplemental 10.7.3 update, and, iTUnes update on March 10. Since then, screen sharing to a headless Mac no longer works properly.
What happens is it runs, but, screens no longer update properly. For example, you can't scroll in Safari, UNLESS you resize the Safari window, it's really strange. Video doesn't play, it freezes, again, unless you resize the video player window.
This has happened on all 3 macs that were updated. All 3 are headless, no display attached. One is a OSX Server.
Anyone else with the latest updates screen sharing a headless Mac with this issue?

Slow update of shared variables on RT (cRIO) after building exe

Hi,
I've been struggling with this for the past few days. I am having a problem with slow updating of shared variables on my RT project....but only after building the application into exe's.
The application consists of an RT target (cRIO 9073) sampling inputs at a rate of 1sec. I have a host PC running the front panel that updates with the new acquired values from the cRIO. These values are communicated via shared variables.
Once the cRIO samples the inputs, it writes the values to the shared variables, and then flags the data as 'ready to be read' using a boolean shared variable flag. The hostPC polls this boolean shared variable and updates the indicators on the front panel accordingly.
Now, this worked fine during development, but as soon as I built the RT exe and host exe's, it stopped working properly and the shared variables ended up being updated very slowly, roughly 2-3sec update time.
To give you some more background:
I am running the Labview 2010 v10.0.
I am deploying the shared variable library on the RT device (as the system must work even without the hostPC). I have checked that its deploying using Distributed System Manager, as well as deploying it into the support directory on the cRIO and not the exe itself.
I have also disabled all firewalls and my antivirus, plus made sure that the IP's and subnets are correct and its DNS Server address is set to 0.0.0.0.
There are 25 shared variables all in all, but over half of those are config values only used once or twice at startup. Some are arrays, plus I dont have any buffering and none of them are configured as RT FIFO's either.
The available memory on the cRIO is about 15MB minimum.
What strikes me is that it works fine before building exe's and its not like the cRIO code is processor intensive, its idleing 95% of the time.

Thats exactly what I'm saying, it takes 2-3seconds to update the values.
I have tried taking out the polling on the PC side, and registered an event on the changing of that shared variable and that doesn't do anything to change the slow update time. Even if I stop the PC, and just monitor the shared variables in DSM it updates slowly.
I also tried utilising the "flush shared variables" vi to try to force the update....that does nothing.
I wire all the error nodes religously. Still no luck.
Its very strange, I'm not too sure whats happening here. These things should be able to update in 10ms.

Can one limit updating of shared Photostreams to when the phone is connected to computer?

My mum has a 5S with iOS 8 which is connected to a shared photo stream where I post photos and videos of our family. My mum's contract has a 1GB limit and she noticed this month that she passed that limit. I think this is because her phone updates the shared photo stream over the cellular network (she doesn't have a wifi network at home). Is there a setting in iOS 8 to limit such updating to when the phone is connected to her computer?
Many TIA
Philip

Hello pullman,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand from your post that you want to disable the cellular data connection with Photos as to avoid overages. To do this, go to Settings > Cellular, and turn photos off.

Update Broke Dual Monitors...among other things

Well Good Evening everyone....I got home to an updated, broke windows build. I am guessing my PC stayed on and automatically updated over night. I came home to no signal on either of my monitors, all of my software that was installed is now missing,
and i could not get into my PC. I restarted several times but still no success. I finally removed my secondary monitor, and I then had my screen back which is when I discovered all of my settings and software had been removed, kindalike a Refresh PC you can
do on Windows 8. All of my files and documents are still in tact though. Also if I plug my secondary monitor back into the video card, still no signal. I've tried using the Windows+P to extend, as well as going to Screen Resolution but my settings will
not save when i hit apply. This is a bit annoying but I do understand its a technical preview. Just wish my secondary monitor worked, Windows 10 is no good without it. Any ideas?

Have you tried deleting the drivers manually from Device Manager? Remove any and all components that might be conflicting and unplug any unrelated peripherals. Then reinstall the latest Windows 8.1 drivers. Also make sure your
monitor connections are setup properly.

The new updater broke my ipod

I've just installed the new updater for my 5G iPod. Now, when I've got the backlight set to off, I can no longer turn it on again by holding the menu key for a few seconds - it just goes to the previous menu no matter how long I hold it down. However, the backlight does work normally when on a timeout setting
Anyone else having this problem? Think I'll get hold of the bug-fix updater (the previous version!).

the reason is that its doin it is because for the
hold menu thing is that you have to be at the main
menu to turn it off.. its really only for when you
have it switched to "always on" when you have it on
like that. then it works
No, it doesn't work at the main menu either. And no, it did work from anywhere with version 1.0.
Basically, the updater broke it like I said, and there was another person who posted the same problem at the same time i did.
This is a bug caused by the updater.

Ios8 update broke messaging in iphone 5

The i0s8 update broke imessaging in my iphone 5s. Asks if I want to send as SMS instead. Nice QA, Apple.

I had the same problem with iOS8 and the iPhone5. I was not getting any messages being sent to me via iMessage.
I only noticed this because the iMessage app on the Mac had new messages that the iPhone did not.
When I went to the iPhone Messages settings and tried to log in to iMessage via my apple ID and PW the phone kept saying the PW is not correct which was not true since I am using that same ID and PW to post this message.
I turned the iPhone off and then back on, went back into the Messages settings and iMessage indicated I was logged and and now is working however the earlier messages only delivered to the mac app don't show up on the phone.

[Solved] Update broke some things

Okay, I just ran pacman -Syu and among the kernel and ndiswrapper updates some important stuff got broken.
1. When I try to boot up it gets to the file systems spits out a bunch of stuff and gives me this error
/etc/rc.sysinit line 271 5915 segmentation fault /bin/mount -o remount, rw
What do i have to do to that line to let it boot normally?
2. This isnt a fatal error, just an annoyance. but in that same file on line 350 it says: /usr/bin/kbd_mod no such file or directory.
Can I delete this line?
3. and finally once again, these updates broke the wireless. When I run netcfg2 mynetwork I get a wireless association failed error.
Any help on this?

Last update broke my mac

Hi all
Seems the last update broke running games with Steam, and broke Skype. Any idea what might have caused this, and how to fix it?
roy

Hello:
Well, since none of those third party programs have been changed, and since the Apple update *did* change my mac, it was the one that broke things.
Actually you completely missed my point. Software that is being maintained by a manufacturer (translate Apple) is under regular incremental improvement. Third party developers have access to the changes before they are released to the general public. The reason I suggested you contact the third party developers is because they may already have a fix or workaround.
Is there an easy way to roll back such an update?
If you backed up your system prior to doing the update (always an essential step), yes. If you did not, no.

Last iOS update broke iphone5

3 days ago iOS 8.2 update happened. Since then my phone is froze either black or Apple or sometimes a screen like "blue screen of death like on a comp"?I've tried itunes , I get error 2002. Tried downloading from cloud. Last night tried reiboot_ free program but didn't work so now wants $59.00 for paid program. I don't trust this will work. I'm ready to stop using Apple and go back to droid.
this is ridiculous , I've been with Apple 3 years have iPhone and iPad and Apple TV. ready to purchase a fourth Apple computer. I'm rethinking all of this and may get away from Apple.
this is second time a iOS update broke an outherwise working iphone. APPLE GET IT TOGETHER.

I can't count the number of iOS updates I've done and only encountered 1 major issue since purchasing a 1st Generation iPod Touch.
Error 2002 is indicating a USB communication error, if you are using a hub or a front USB connection on a desktop try plugging into a primary USB port. You might also want to use a different cable.

Office 2013 latest update broke new profile creation on all network computers

Hi,
Reporting a bug here!
Setup details:
We're using samba 3 as our backend and all workstation are Windows 7 Pro x64.
Office 2013 Home and Business Retail (en-us) Click 2 Run version
Context:
Deployed to the whole network of one of our client using the Office Deployement Tool.
We update their base update (no updates) to the latest update 15.0.4569.1508
Everything was working alright after initial Office 2013 installation with no updates. After updating the all the PCs to the latest version as of 31/03/2014, the user profile creation broke for newly created user.
Symptoms and causes:
Trying to log on as a new user on the machine would give the following error on Logon before automatically loging off because it cannot copy the following file to the new user profile:
D:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\_00.sqm
D:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\_01.sqm
D:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\_02.sqm
The Bici folder has Read and Execute permissions for everyone but the _XX.sqm files inside only have permissions (Full Control) for SYSTEM and Administrators and LOCAL SERVICE with the all permissions EXCEPT:
- FULL CONTROL
- TRAVERSE FOLDERS/EXECUTE FILES
- CHANGE PERMISSIONS
- TAKE OWNERSHIP
Solution:
I gave "everyone" Read and Execute permission on those files and the new user could log in and his profile got created alright.
The files with broken permissions time stamp shows they've been modified during the Office 2013 update and Bici seems to be a OneDrive related service. This bug should get fixed ASAP.
Event log error:
Windows cannot copy file \\?\D:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\_01.sqm to location \\?\D:\Users\TEMP\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\_01.sqm. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.

Can multiple people edit and update a shared document in Numbers?

Hi!
Just a quick one for you guys!
I have recently discoverer 'Numbers' which is great! I then discovered you could share a spreadsheet which is perfect for us as we quiet often need to be working in the same document from our iPhones. However, we do not seem to be able to see each others changes on the shared document. Is it actually possible for us to both work in the spreadsheet and it automatically update each others spreadsheet or is it that when we are done editing, we can only send it to our own iCloud?
Thanks!
Ry

If you share an iCloud link, you can all edit the same document through a web browser. But it has to be a "full" web browser. Mobile Safari on the iPhone can't handle it.
If you're editing the document in Numbers for iOS then others won't be able to see your changes. You'll have to email or share a link to your edited version.

Can software updates be shared on other computers?

I thought I read somewhere that Software Updates could be downloaded on one computer and then shared on another. We have 3 Macs in the house and the software updates are chewing through my allocated data, at least it is a part of the problem I believe.
Is there a link to the instructions to get ALL software updates on one and then just share them on the other two computers, this would greatly reduce the amount of data being used.
If so, could someone let me know the link and also how to disable the auto update on all but one computer so that we don't have this problem?
If someone knows, I would greatly appreciate their help. Thanks.

I am just not sure how to stop the computers automatically updating
On the opening screen of:
System Preferences > Software Update > Scheduled Check pane
uncheck "Check for Updates" | Weekly
now you can check for and install updates manually on your own schedule.
how to choose the "Download Only" mode
On the Update menu, the "Download only" menu item will be present, but will be grayed out until updates are actually available. Selecting "Download only" will download (but not install) the updates with checkmarks from the list. In 10.4 and earlier, these are left in the "Packages" folder inside the Library folder. In 10.5 and later, they are left in the "Downloads" folder.
\[To actually install once downloaded, you may either open all the packages in the Finder (which launches Installer) or choose "Install now" from the same menu.]
Once they have been downloaded, you are free to copy them around to your other computers. You can use Zip disks if you prefer.
If you have all these computers connected to the Internet through a Router, you already have all the cabling in place for File Sharing. The software for File Sharing is already in place in all your Macs. All you need to do is enable Personal File Sharing in:
System Preferences > Sharing
and use the Finder's:
Go > Connect to Server
Log in with a username and password that is valid on the computer that is holding the files to be shared. If your access is too limited, you can either move the files to be shared to the Public folder, or log in with an administrator's username and password for broader access.
As Niel has pointed out, if you have a Mac OS X Server on your network, a much more elegant mechanism is available. The Server automatically checks and downloads, and stores the packages in a tamper-proof form on the Server. Each Mac then asks the local Server for any updates, and they are supplied automatically without a new Internet download.
