10HD Slate stopped running Google Earth and Youtube

The slate worked fine since it was purchased four months ago. A few weeks ago, Google Earth started to only show a black screen and this week youtube stopped running. It only streams a video for a few seconds before it stops and spools for a minute or longer before it streams video for another few seconds. Chrome has also started taking a long time to search and open to a page.
I've cleared the cache on every app and I have shut down all running apps. I've uploaded to the latest Chrome and Google and rebooted several times. The tablet is running Android 4.2.2 and kernal 3.4.5.
Any suggestions?

Just tried the same app on the same device - same results. Google Earth doesn't work!
Google may have changed it to work only with KitKat...?
Meanwhile, the Maps app works fine and in the "Satellite" view is much the same as Google Earth.

20" iMac freezes when running Google Earth

This is the only problem I've ever had with my Mac and it is consistent. After running Google Earth for about 10-15 minutes the screen freezes and I have to force shutdown and reboot to rectify the problem.
I did some temperature measurements at the vent in the back and noticed a considerable temperature rise when running Google Earth. I think my graphics card is getting a serious workout and may go into thermal overload.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi dicoll
I can think of two thing that might cause the issue you describe:
_The first is how much ram is installed in your iMac?_
If your system is running low on available ram and paging out to the HD, when your running Google Earth it will cause the program to hesitate and or freeze. Try using the Activity Monitor, to monitor your ram usage and also to check for a failed process.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107918
_The second is what you describe as a thermal issue!_
To monitor temp's and fan speeds for a thermal issues there is the iStatPro widget. (Note the temp. for the GPU Diode)
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/status/istatpro.html
And then for monitoring and adjust the fan speeds there is smcFanControl Application.

Export option for highest quality posting to Google video and YouTube

I'm trying to figure out what the best export options are for posting video on Google Video and YouTube. My primary interest is skiing video with quick actions. Here are the 5 options I tried on my iMovie HD 6, the latest and the greatest:
MPEG4, LAN
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2913246368993273712
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL6RHKXydhQ
MPEG4, LAN, High Quality
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1920438333553484589
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0myAYyBx0k
Quicktime, LAN, 320x240, Deinterlace
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2101048758986639008
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rExhbmBksVs
Quicktime, LAN
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8289794703671829891
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-nwmyJ-y_g
Quicktime, LAN, Deinterlace
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1116022416411494165
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4Wch75hTzs
You can get the whole list on each site with following URL
http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=imovie-quality-comparison
http://www.youtube.com/my_playlists?p=C0D08A3D961234E4
Each video has cross reference URL in the description which link to the same video posted on other site.
Currently my choice is "Quicktime, LAN, Deinterlace" on Google Video. Only thing I don't like is doubling of image for fast moving part, which somehow disappears if I reduce the size to 320x200, but then it is too blurry when displayed in full screen.
None is usable on YouTube. They look horrible, but there are much better quality videos on YouTube.
Since there are so many knobs to play around on each option, I'm at loss what to play around with. I did quick things like increasing the size to 720x480 or increasing the frame rate, but surprisingly, none seems to make any difference when filtered through their encoder.
I like to solicit suggestions on what option to try. I'll export the same video with that options, upload it to both sites and we can take a look.

Hi — I also found you via Slashdot. You've gone to a good amount of effort to solve this scientifically.
I'm just here to say: Face it, you need to go past the built-in options. Here's what you need to know:
1. YouTube is 320x240 (or 320 by anything lower, for widescreen). You must scale to that.
2. YouTube is 30fps maximum, so if you already have that, set that. If you have 25 or 24, use that. If you have 50, it looks better with 25 (I've tried).
3. The interlacing choice is purely up to your original video. Does it have 480 lines or 576 lines? And if so, does it have fluid "live camera" motion, unlike film? If your answer is yes to both, then you have interlacing. Since YouTube doesn't do interlacing, you need to remove it.
4. Both YouTube and Google Video have a problem with the (seemingly open, standard) MP4 format. We think it's because of the VLC software they used. Anyway, use a QuickTime MOV file for the wrapping container, so export to QuickTime Movie (not MPEG-4). But use the H.264 codec. It's good.
OK, that's it. It's your pretty complete, simple guide to making good YouTube videos.
Don't forget to use a tripod and external microphones, and lay off using the zoom too much. That's my other advice, for earlier in the process. Now you've learnt everything technical The rest is only down to viral marketing and you can learn all that by example out on YouTube.

IPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

iPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

Quit/close all apps and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can try this as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Google earth and google earth plugin not working on

Hi,
I have a macbook 2006 with Intel GMA 250 and OS 10.6.8, and I cannot manage to make google eart work properly, nor google earth's plugin on safari, firefox, or google chrome. It worked fine previously, but stoped at a certain point (since several months). I have reinstalled the plugin several without success. I also tried troubleshooting from google earth, without success.
Does anyone experiencing the same problem knows how to solve it?
Thanks
THibaut

More information would be great.
What type of site is it? WordPress? Joomla or Drupal?
What drag and drop theme or framwork are you using?
What version of software and theme, what type of hosting, what version of PHP and mySQL?
I'm having similar issues but details such as these will go a long way to grouping symptoms and getting to the bottom of the problem(s).
One thing I've noted is that in most cases everything is actually working. It's just taking an unbelievably long time. jQuery isn't the problem either. It seems more closely related to the quantity of available tasks on a given page.
There are forum posts for v7 that say Safari isn't compatible with WordPress for example. It is compatible and works just fine, but if you're running the latest version of Catalist Theme and their Dynamic Site Builder you can't do anything with Dynamic admin because all its options are on a single page which appears to be too much for Safari 7 to handle for some reason. Folks are having similar problems with Genesis, Headway Theme, Pagelines and many others.

[SOLVED]Google Earth and LSB

Good Morning Fellow Archers,
I've got an up to date x64 Arch install. I wanted to install Google-Earth from the AUR but was not able. I tried both packages, and both of them are failing looking for LSB-3. The current LSB in the repository is rev 4.
I followed one thread where I manually created a link for a lsb-3 install, and both google-earth packages still fail.
I do have the multi-libs enabled as I have one app that uses wine32 and it's happy. And the NVidia lib32 stuff is all there too.
I have X-Plane 9, which is a 32 bit app only, and it runs fine so I know the x32libs are all in place and working.
I think the long-term solve is for the google-earth AUR maintainers to square away their builds for lsb-4....but I'm not an expert in package builds or I'd jump in and help.....but reality is that I am not an expert.
In the meantime....how do I make this work without pounding a 'square' peg into a 'round' hole?
Assistance will be sincerely appreciated!
Dave
PS: Yes...I did try to follow the wiki article too.....

Thank you for the response. I have it installed and it works perfectly. THANK YOU.
The solve was simple. I was brain-locked on the lsb in the arch repository, and was not taking note of that I needed the lsb from the AUR.
This was totally my error.
Again, thank you for the response.

Every time I download google earth and try to use it I received the message cannot connect to server why

I have problem on using google earth on my iPad and my MacBook Pro
All the time I received the message cannot connect to server

Sometimes the sign-in process goes kablooey for whatever reason. It can usually be remedied by tapping the options icon (the cogwheel out in the project selection user interface; upper right) > My Account. Sign in that way and you should be able to get everything going again. I just did it on my Google Nexus 7 2013 with no problems.

Google, Yahoo, and Youtube won't load... all other sites do!

I have searched for hours to the solution but I haven't been able to find one! I don't know what else I can tell you besides that I have disabled (and then trashed) peerguardian, have tried disabling the mac firewall and Glimmer Blocker (adblocker), and even tried resetting my router.
What is weird that my ipod touch is able to access all these sites but Safari and Firefox can't. All of this just happened today.
T.H.A.N.K. Y.O.U to everyone!

got it on my configuration...
Issue identified: recent modifications to either how Google, Yahoo or YouTube DNS or Port are set-up or concurrently updated in the "Webspider and Bots" list from bluetack used in softwares such as Peerguardian, Safepeer or the like, resulted in the Mac not being able to recognize the server.
Solution: I've modified the filter so that it allows "standard port", and the problem has been resolved.
Note that I had a similar problem with a more obscure website, and the same solution applied though on a different IP list.
Note to Snow600: you need to "Disable filters" in Peerguardian first, and then you can quit, then uninstall it. This was the test I made to identify my issue. Just quitting and trashing Peerguardian didn't solve the issue at first, so I reinstalled, disabled filters, and it worked...

Projection in Google Earth and Oracle

I'm trying to build a demo with dutch data (The Netherlands) with the article from Justin Lokitz http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/lokitz-spatial-geoserver.html. In his tables he uses SRID 8265. Anyone any idea which srid I should use with my dutch (Navteq = lat/lon) data?
And does anyone have any idea why the maps of The Netherlands or Belgium or whatever in Google Earth (or Mapinfo) is straight up, and the map of the Netherlands with geodetic data always looks tilted and stretched?

Wijnand
Generally CS transformation is rather straightforward, although sometimes mathematical complicated. Most of the times CS transformation to projected coordinates is a two step approach.
First from WGS84 (lat lon) to Local geodetic datum (lat lon), Secondly a projection is applied to local projected coordinates.
For the first step, if available, a 7 parameter transformation is applied. These parameters will give you the 3 translation, 3 rotation and 1scale factors from and to WGS84 to your local datum.
This first step is actually a 4 fase traject.
from WGS84 (lat lon) to WGS84 (X,Y,Z) then the 7 parameter transformation is applied to get YOURDATUM (X,Y,Z). After this you go from YOURDATUM (X,Y,Z) to YOURDATUM(LAT, LON).
The second step will apply the projection on YOURDATUM(LAT,LON).
I would think that this general approach counts for a lot of transformations implemented. although there are some other transformations available, depending on the availability of the 7 parameters.

I have an IMac G5 (ALS). It is running 10.4.11. Can I update the software to run google chrome and what can I update it to.

What can I update this to and where can I get the software from?

Google Chrome only runs on Intel based Macs.
PPC based Macs like the G5 can only be upgraded to run Leopard 10.5.8. Apple no longer supply it, so look in Amazon or eBay for a black retail install disk. Don't be surprised if you see a pricetag of around $200.

Downloaded upgrade to Google Earth and when I attempt to open, all I get is the "Start-Up Tip". With previous version, I the earth would come up in background. Now only the tip. When I close the tip screen, nothing.?

Had Goggle Earth (GE) on the Mac since new last year. Worked fine. Tried upgrading GE this week and only the tip window opens. Before, the earth would be in the background and the tip in the foreground. Now, only the tip. When I close the tip, nothing. No earth, no GE but the Mac says the GE is running. Any idea what is going wrong?

I've looked on this site for solutions. Started FF in safe mode. disabled all my plug-ins and extensions and enabled them one after the other with no positive results. I've reset FF to it's default settings with no results. Javascript is working and adobe flasher player have been up dated. Does anyone have another suggestion?
