10.7.3 - 10.7.4 major issues

Finally I am able to ask for help. Yesterday, my computer went to sleep and didn't wake up. I was running 10.7.3. I rebooted, and found the cursor frozen in the left hand corner. I rebooted again, no change. Then I tried a Pram and also repaired permissions two different ways, first the usual way, then the other way using the the built in restore utilites by pressing Apple R (?) I don't remember exactly but, I did a repair permission of just certain home folders. Anyway, then, I believe I started in safe mode and the cursor and other problems were fine. But, of course, it was safe mode. I then allowed the upgrade to take place - upgrading to 10.7.4 and then to Safari 6.0 ( I was running whichever one was previous).
It seemed to fix all problems. I didn't use the computer very much and perhaps watched a few minutes on Netflix before retiring fo the evening. THis morning, I watched some more netflix and it all was fine. Suddenly, after about an hour of viewing the film started to hang  - up. It did this quite a few time. THen froze for good. I restarted safari and i believe it was back to normal. THen, it all happened again. So, i rebooted the computer. And problems solved, but, they returned.Then a more serious problem happened, NO SOUND, and up at the top of the computer screen, on the right hand side, where all the indicators are sound, wifi, etc. the sound seemed greyed out, there was a seperation between the Sound emblem and the other indicators..as if sound had been isolated...?  THe Sound was all the way down and wouldn't budge. I went to Sound , through system preferences and MUTE was check and it was greyed out.  So I shut down the computer, took off all power including battery pressed the start button for 60 seconds and retarted. The cursor was frozen again, then, I restarted again. THe same thing but, I found that I could navigate a bit with the arrows, I tried to get to applications, no luck...finally pressing the esc key and random other keys I freed up the cursor. Then, I gave up with video and began to seek answers, but, safari was acting eratic, it wouldn't load properly, and it seemed very slow, I would click on links in google and it seemed to hang up etc. I switched to chrome but, after a few minutes it seemed to have the same problems. Then, I opened Opera and although it wasn't perfect I was able to get to forums...of course, it wouldn't accept my password so I had to reset it - finally I'm here writing.
At one point yesterday, when I was trying to repair permisions ( Disk Utility) it told me 6 hours. later after using the other method, I was able to get it to also repair through Disk Utility and it was quite smooth. I did see a difference with Safari 6.0 at the beginning everything seemed to get faster. But, then problems started, I also found a reference to change to 32 bit which I did.
It's intolerable to have to watch video this way, to have so many glitches coming up, browsers freezing or not working correctly, the cursor freezing after startup - etc. etc. i have a new harddrive for at least 6 months...so I know it's not a hard ware problem...500 GB - still half empty. I"m running 4 GB of ram, the top amount for this MacBook Pro. i had a new mother board installed about 2 years back and had a new Super Drive installed as well. It's been working fantastically until now. Sorry for writing so much - but, it's very frustrating. YES I had a problem in 10.7.3 previous to upgrading, but, now the problem has come to 10.7.4...after less than 24 hours and the browsers being quirky tell me perhaps it's not just a Safari problem. I also upgraded to Adobe Flash 11. in this process ( before I had the issues with the video). I truly will appreciate all help. Thanks, Thomas

Both my laptop and desktop tend to use up all the memory (4 GB) if I leave them overnight. Word, Mail, and my CRM all grow to 200 MB+, Chrome uses 200 MB plus 40-80 MB per window, and in the mornng there's only 30-40 MB available.

  • I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues.  The screen is very slow to respond.  When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on.  I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on

    I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues.  The screen is very slow to respond.  When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on.  I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on and back off.  It is very, very frustrating.  The other issue is that the battery drains very quickly.  I have called Verizon numerous times regarding these issues.  They tell me to do different things that never help.  We eventually did a factory reset and it still has the same issues.  Help!  It is a brand new phone and unfortunately I am in a new two year contract.  Ugh. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

    I have done that several times.  In fact, every time I call Verizon with my phone problems, they have me do the same things repeatedly.  I keep telling them I have already done them but they insist they are SURE it will work this time.  It never does.  After doing the factory reset and it still not working correctly, they act like they are confused, almost like I am lying.  I did what you suggested above on the slim chance it would work this time but it did not.  I bought two S5's that day and the other one works perfectly fine.  I know I got a bad phone.  Verizon just does not listen.  It is a bad phone.  I just want a new phone that works properly.  Is that too much to ask?  I bought a new phone that has been bad from day one.  Why oh why do I have to spend hours of my time on the phone, in the store, on the computer, trying to rectify this?  It shouldn't be this difficult!  Help please!!!

  • Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

    The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse.  The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

    Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
    I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
    Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
    On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
    On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
    I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
    Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
    On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
    Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
    In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

  • I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!

    I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
    I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Links should not create any problems in Keynote.  If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
    Try this repair for Keynote,  ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:

    delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application

    empty the trash:  Finder > Empty Trash

    Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
    When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.

    Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive

    when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions

    when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart

    install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    let us know if this helped

  • What are the major issues to consider in code review? Or performance analys

    What are the major issues to consider in code review? Or performance analysis?

    I would not recommend you to try to optimize performance by checking the coding.
    There is the code inspector which can do all which makes sense automatically.
    The above mentioned points are not the real issues.
    Instead of code review you should execute test cases and measure the exection time.
    1. With STAD if you want to get good time measurement
    2. With SE30 and ST05, if you want to have data for further anaylsis.
    Check total time (SE30), check whether DB part is large, then go to SQL trace. Do the check mentioned here
    /people/siegfried.boes/blog/2007/09/05/the-sql-trace-st05-150-quick-and-easy
    to find the SQL bottlenecks.
    The major point about SQL problems is index support, if there is no proper index support then the performance will be poor. Be aware, that problems are only visible, if you tables are filled.
    In a test system where you have very little data, you will never encounter performance problems.
    Check also the Top10 of the SQ30 hit list.
    Be aware that a proper performance analysis is not a 5 minutes job.

    Hi Ramjan,
    Try to have a clear understanding of requirements and find the best solution in SAP. Keep as much as possible everything standard and based on SAP best practices.
    In PA look for a comprehensive enterprise structure. It's base for everything.
    DON"T do anything through development(ABAP code) as much as possible specially in PT and PY. Try to do claculation by PCRs and Schema.

  • What are the major issues in implementation SAP CRM sales and CIC.

    Hi
    We are newly implanting the project to the mobile Manfaturing Company. Our Clint is going for are looking to implement the CIC interaction center win Clint and the Sales modules of CRM .
    We have some 3rd parry raw data with us with that raw data we are calling to the customers and we want create the opportunity in the CIC after that we will convert the opportunity as a sales with our other sales people. After  that  they will sale that product to that customers.
    We have the back end of the R/3 SD, MM modules implemented for Clint.
    Now 1) I want to know after implementation what are the major issues will come in the project normally for the conman  Sales and CIC Win Clint projects kindly give the some  issues normally come  and solutions  for the problems also.
    My motto is that if I know the issues I can make preparation  for that conman issues and I will make my project with good effective and smooth running ..
    with Regards,
    prakesh
    Edited by: prakesh on Dec 9, 2009 6:04 AM

    hi prakesh,
    firstly, cic winclient is an older version and obsolete so its better to implement the new crm version.
    secondly, in any case if you want to implement, then your 3rd party raw data has to be mapped with the SAP system which could be a problem. Middleware could be a lot of effort. Rest all depends on how much customization you need for your business requirement in cic and sales. In case you are implementing standard functionality mostly then no major complications are expected otherwise lot of development effort may be required.

    Yes, I would certainly get the latest update. That we often solve issues like these, for this is not normal. Some further tips would be quite InDesign, then to trash your InDesign preferences and then re-start InDesign (it will rebuild them again). Some further areas to look into would be:
    * Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
    * Corrupt Image(s)
    * Power Failures (power surges)
    * Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
    * Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
    If all else fails, we as Markzware (I work for them) also offer a Service to fix corrupt InDesign documents. See:

    Hopefully this helps you.

  • Anyone else having major issues with 1.1.4?

    So I updated to Firmware 1.1.4 a day or two after it came out and I've been having major issues. This is on a phone purchased on launch day that has not been jailbrokened or hacked in anyway.
    Battery life...when the phone actually works, is down drastically. I went from 2.5 days with Bluetooth and Wi-fi on to about 12 hours at one time.
    Wi-fi...when it works, just cuts in and out even when the signal should be all full strength.
    Clock...even though it is set to sync with network time, can be accurate one minute and lags behind as much as 15 minutes.
    I've done numerous restores, both from a backup file and setting the phone up as a new phone. Nothing seems to fix the problem so far. Has anyone else run into these issues and/or know of how to fix it.
    I was contemplating downgrading the firmware to 1.1.3, but I don't believe there is an official way to do it.
    Any input would be appreciated.

    I have exactly the same issues, After the Update the sound quality of my calls dropped drastically! I tought first I got a cold or something like that...but it was not I cannot hear as clearly as I used to before and increasing the volume does not solve anything!
    I also noticed that trsitionning from an application to another and especially using the home button to got to home page is getting slower. I need more time to lose safari and go to emails than before.
    My Memory usage is exactly the same as I havent added anything to my library or so. Aroud 3.5 GB free.
    Anyone with same symptoms?

  • Major Issues With My 4s

    okay so my iphone has been giving me major issues since i got it exactly one year ago.
    my iphone:
    -black 4s 16GB Verizon iOS 6.0
    Issues
    -my caller id on other phones comes up as "blocked" or "restricted" unless i dial *82 then the number i want to call. verizon tells me i do not have "caller id blocking" turned on
    -when i receive a text message or imessage the incoming number shows up as 82 then the number (ex. 821234567890) instead of the contact number. when i slide to reply it insists on creating a new message, not adding to the conversation already in the messages app.
    when i first received this phone, purchased from verizon on the internet, i was unable to activate the device. when i took the phone to the apple store, they told me it was set to vodafone (british?) but somehow verizon support was able to activate the iphone. because of these problems ive had to save contacts in my phone with their regular number for texting (ex. 123-456-7890) and their number with *82 (ex. *82 123-456-7890) for calls, so my caller id shows. Siri will not dial numbers that start with * or #, making the feature basically useless.
    does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this or do i have to buy a new phone (which i don't really want to do).
    thanks in advance,
    john

    i dont have that option all that shows is,
    [my number]
    calls
    [reply with message >]
    [tty           off]
    [change voicemail password]
    [dial assist     off]
    dial assist automatically determines the correct
    international or local prefix when dialing.

    Also, the video that was exported contained a lot of clips that came out choppy and low quality.

  • Major Issues with iPod Touch - Please help!

    Hi, I am having major issues with my iPod, and nothing seems to be going right. It all started a few days after I got it for Christmas. I would wake up, and my iPod would be completely discharged even though it had a full battery and was turned off. I woke up one night and found that it came on all by myself. I sent it into iPod, and they sent it back saying nothing was wrong. Since I got it back today and within six hours, I have had four software crashes to the point where I have had to uninstall iTunes and restore factory settings four times. I am now on my fifth crash, but this time, the screen won't even come on. It keeps saying that it is in recovery mode. I simply went to turn it on! Does anyone have any suggestions? Personally, I think there is a short, and that I need a new a replacement. However, it doesn't seem like Apple is very supportive of the idea. I go through all of their steps over and over and over, and the same thing happens! What is going on? Please help.
    Marie

    sounds like, for the charging problem anyways, that you are just putting ipod into "Stand by" mode... press and hold the power key for about 10 seconds and an option to power off will actually come on.. if u just press it and let go, it just goes to stand by.. i have noticed stand by drains my battery
    also, it doesn't sound like a short to me... the charging i am pretty sure is bc you are only putting it into standby however, the rest sounds like software.. did u try and restore using itunes or did you just reset the factory defaults?? Plug it into itunes and click restore under the ipod menu...
