30EA4 - sometimes not honoring NLS preferences?
It seems sometimes EA4 is not following my date mask as set in preferences
Specifically, I have a database that is brought down/up every night. Usually, my opened session in sqldeveloper will be dead in the morning - that's logical. It seems though, that in some cases (some mornings), the session is still usable (how could I check if sqldev has spawned a new connection or not?) but it ignores some preferences, most noticeably the date format (and reverts to the default 'DD-MON-RR'). Is anyone seeing this?
duplicate of another thread where the bug has been acck'd.

Smart guides labels appears but sometimes NOT.
When I am using smart guides in illustrator cs6 it is problem which makes me nervous.
When I select point, handles appear. When I move next to handle top the label appear. But SOMETIMES NOT appear, SOMETIMES APPEAR. It is terrible.
- It might be nice when labels ALWAYS APPEAR, WHEN I AM NEXT TO HANDLE TOP or NEXT TO THE ANCHOR POINT.
Because then I know, that when label appear, I can work with that concrete handle, or point.
I know, that it depends of the snapping tolerance, which I can set in Preferences. But when the snapping tolerance is too high, it is unpleasant to draw anything. When snapping tollerance is high i can draw objects on A4 leter which is usual, but my lines and handles are attached anytime when I do not want.
When I do not use smart guides it is unpleasant to draw lines too. Sometimes I grab handle when I want, but sometimes I fail.
I think it may be a good solution if you fix it so that the snapping tollerance will be lower, but labels will appear sooner and reliably.
I like Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop. But this is the reason, why Illustrator makes me crazy, when I work there. ThanksDavid,
I do not have align to pixel grid or snap to grid turned on
It sounds as if Illy thinks the former.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Illustrator CS6 does not honor Full Keyboard Access setting
Why does Illustrator CS6 not honor the Mac system setting for Full Keyboard Access? Under System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts, I have Full Keyboard Access set to allow the Tab key to cycle between "Text boxes and lists only". But Illustrator allows the Tab key to focus on all controls, including buttons. Is there a setting somewhere in Illustrator to change this behavior?
You can try to edit the keyboard file, but you need to find out the code for the Danish keys.

Info not showing anything (sometimes not even panel)
Hi
Hopefully someone can help when I click info on photos so I can tag people or see dates sometimes i get an etched grey panel - mostly not!
If i go Photos>detect missing faces sometimes it crashes sometimes it comes up!? but then the font seems black on black!?
I have tried rebuilding data bases etc - Do i need to reinstall? Is this possible?
I have an iMac runnning 10.9.1 with a 2.5 GHZ intel Core i5 with 2GB RamFirst try all of the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder:
User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
If that fails to solve the problem it could be another preference file other than iPhoto. Here's how to test for that:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
1 - close all applications.
2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
3 - select the contents of the orignal Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock. You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
4 - reboot. Be sure to know your account's username and password as you will be asked to log in with it.
5 - run the application again and determine if the problem(s) is fixed.
6 - If the problem is fixed:
A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
B - Open the Preferences folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
D - reboot.
7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
8 - reboot and you're back as square one.
Note: keep the Preference folder on the desktop until you're sure all registration info for your apps are working. If not you can copy the required files from the desktop pref folder to the working one.

Adjust Palette slider. Sometimes zeroed out, sometimes not
I can't understand what is going on.
I will edit my photos using the adjust palette and when I move on to the next photo, sometimes it says "saving changes" and sometimes not. On the photos where it does "save" the changes, when I go back to the photo, the adjustments are there, but the sliders have been zeroed out. This makes it impossible to "copy" the sliders and paste to another photo. Nor can I see what adjustments have been made.
While on some photos, it's doesn't "save changes" when I move away from it. When I return to the photo, the adjustments are there, AND the sliders are where I moved them to. This is what I WANT to happen on every photo so I can see what I've done. But on some photos it "saves" them and I can't see my adjustments in the sliders.
This seems completely random and changes from photo to photo within the same album. Both versions look right and have my adjustments correct, it's just that one will show me the adjustments in the adjust palette, and the other will have sliders zeroed out as if that's how the photo came right out of the camera.
What gives?
I'm on iPhoto 8
Thanks,
BrianI don't see anything that jumps out as to why but do see a couple of things you can try.
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - empty the User/Library/Caches/iPhoto folder
3 - rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
If none of the above help, boot into another account (if you don't have one create a non-admin account as it's a very good troubleshooting tool), create a test library, import a few photos and give it a good editing workout. If the edits are saving as they should then there could be an issue with a preference file, other than iPhoto's, in your primary account. Here's how to determine if that's the case:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Preferences folder (in its entirety) to the Desktop and make a second copy of it so you have Copy A and B. Now try the the process again and determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up.
Open Copy B on the Desktop and select all of the items inside. Drag them into the open new library folder. When the Copy window comes up check the Apply to All check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here. That will keep the new files created and bring back all of the others.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the intact Copy A folder back to the Library folder .
On a different note I see you have just 8 GB of free space. If you can increase that to around 15GB I'm sure you'll see an improvement in system and application performance. Also If you upgrade to 10.4.11 be sure to use the 10.4.11 COMBO updater. -
Online chat quote not honored by Verizon or Verizon is trained to lie here too
I Was quoted by Taelor in a live chat and I quote"If you were to upgrade at that 2 year discounted price this would bring your bill to $160 before tax in which I'm seeing we can add our 30% discount on both line access fees for 1 year with a 1 year contract agreement,map dating your bill to $136 before taxes.". I was told I would be getting 15 gig plan and she also said we could add 1 gig of bonus data for a total of 16 gig, the plan would also be 2 smartphones for $136. I then had to leave tht chat session. A few hours later I contacted the live chat again. This time chatting with Lyndsey. i then asked her about what Taelor had said and she also confirmed the plan and told me I could also get the s5 pro owned phone for $99 and the Galaxy note 3 pre owned $99 phone with the 1 year contract however I would have to call as she could not do sales. Well I just got off the phone with Verizon and they would not honor one bit of that agreement even though the lady on the phone (very nice lady by the way) could read exactly what Taelor and Lyndsey both said in our chat session. I thanked her but I'm going to most likely be moving on to sprint and get unlimited everything for my wife and I at $60 each. My sister and her family and my brother in law and his family live in the same area and say they have great service and Internet as I know with sprint that can be a concern. Too bad because I really like Verizon.
I could title my experience the same!
I have had an S5 for about 6 months and have hated at least 23 of those weeks. A couple of weeks ago I signed onto chat to find out my options:
first agent, before she even answered my question as to my options, proceeded to tell me that if I changed my plan that I would save xz&y. I stated that while that sounded good, I wanted to sort out my phone problems first. While I was waiting for her reply, I got a text message notifying me that a change on my account had been made. I immediately stated in the chat that I had not authorized an account change and that before they had permission to do anything I wanted to know about my phone options. STRANGELY, the chat got cut off. WT$%^*
I copied the chat and initiated another session. A new rep comes on and I paste the previous chat into the window and inform her that no change was authorized, and while the change may make sense I want to understand what options I have for getting a new device. She apologized and then gave me my options: 1) buy a new no-contract phone at $750, 2)pay the ETF (prorated to around $250) and then either go onto a new 2 yr contract or go onto an edge contract. I said I will go with option 2. At which point she told me that I would have to go to the store to do the phone transaction but that she would review my plan options. We reviewed the options and I agreed to make the changes.
now I go into the closest VW store and after waiting for 30 minutes for service and another 30 of explaining and the rep talking with her manager, they tell me that they will not honor that. They will allow me to pay the ETF and go to a different device but I will lose my phone number.
So of these options is true:
Chat Reps are not trained properly, or
Chat Reps are intentionally misleading customers, or
Local stores are not trained properly, or
Local stores are refusing to follow VW agreements.
Which ever is a problem. My options are pay $750 or move my accounts to another carrier. Does anyone have any other suggestions? -
Pages '08 Export does not honor the "Hide extension" checkbox
I have noticed that Pages '08, even with the latest update (3.0.3), does not honor the state of the "Hide extension" checkbox in the Export save dialog (or "sheet" that slides out from the title bar). Specifically, I have seen this happen when exporting to Word. When un-checking the "Hide extension" checkbox, the filename is displayed in the dialog with the .doc extension, but the file appears in the save folder (anywhere in the file system) without the .doc extension until I do a Get Info on the file and un-check Hide Extension in the Name & Extension section.
This is really annoying because I hate automatic hiding of file extensions in general, and I find it unacceptable with any kind of MS Office docs because my Windows-using colleagues can't seem to cope without a file extension they recognize.
Also note that this does not seem to affect the Save or Save As dialogs in Pages '08, only the Export save dialog. I can create a regular Pages document, do a Save As, uncheck Hide Extension, and I'll see the document show up in the file system with the .pages extension.
Is this a known bug in Pages '08? I can't find any mention of it in the forums. I also want to know if this is fixed in Pages '09. I've been looking for a way to report this as a bug, but am not having much luck.LionMage wrote:

Yes. just add the extension manually in the Finder.

It has been mentioned many times but not lately.

No.

[LAVA Cross Post] CTRL+SHIFT+ Shortcuts sometimes not working in LabVIEW
Cross-post from LAVA: http://lavag.org/topic/15619-ctrlshift-shortcuts-sometimes-not-working-in-labview/
See the above post for more information - here's a synopsis:
CTRL+SHIFT modifiers are not working while running LabVIEW in a Parallels 7 virtual machine. This problem affects both LV2011 and LV2012. I'm not certain that this is a LabVIEW bug - could be an issue with my virtual machine environment or it's configuration - except that CTRL+SHIFT modifiers work in other applications on the affected VMs. It's just LabVIEW that appears to ignore shortcuts with the CTRL+SHIFT modifiers.
Any ideas?

Macbook Air Late 2010 model, 10.6.7, 2.13 4g ram. Trackpad is not working properly and in sometimes not at all. Need suggestions to resolve this issue? I have applied all Mac updates and still having problems with the trackpad.
The machine has a 1 year warranty, book an appointment with your local Apple Store or AASP to have it looked at.
You can try doing a SMC reset however I don't think that is the solution.
SMC RESET
• Shut down the computer.
• Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
• On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-• Option keys and the power button at the same time.
• Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
• Shut down the computer.
• Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
• Turn on the computer.
• Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
• Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
• Release the keys. -
Preference Error: Could not load sharing preference pane
For some reason my second computer (iMac 27) is no longer showing up on the left pane of any finder window on my MBP. The iMac is running Yosemite and the MBP is running Mavericks. So I open System preferences to see if there is a problem with "Sharing" on the MBP. I'm getting a Preference Error: Could not load sharing preference pane. Do I need to install the update to fix this? I'm not ready to commit to Yosemite completely. I build apps for iOS and Mac and really need to test in both OS environments.
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

When I click on the plus sign by tabs, a burgundy blank screen appears over my window, blocking the tab groups except for the top portion. I can still see the URL address field and the tabs above but when I click on a tab, it comes up beneath the blank burgundy new screen on my window. I then have to open a new window but I have to start over on the tabs. I can't use the ones behind the burgundy screen. sometime when I click on the home icon the blank screen goes away, sometimes not.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

My iTunes v.10.6.3.25 is intermittently refusing to open. Sometimes re-booting my laptop works, sometimes not. I just put the computer to sleep, and when I woke it up, iTunes started automatically (I had been trying to open it just before by clicking on a song file in my Documents window, and that's the song that started playing when the pc woke up). I went to my iTunes Help and clicked Updates/download iTunes 10.7 twice, but got nothing. Now, Im wondering if I should downloacd the entire 10.7, or whether that would overwrite all my files, erasing my songs. Anybody know? Thanks.
Hey thanks for replying.
Here's what I did:
First I tried the Winsock reset in the Command prompt. Nothing changed.
Next, I tried the instructions on http://http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123. The only other program that came up on the 'Winsock Providers' tab on the program was 2 Windows Live applications, which I can do without. So I deleted all Windows Live Applications.
I did the Winsock reset in the Command Prompt again and rebooted my comp.
Unfortunately, nothing has changed. iTunes keeps freezing at various stages of the sync, then shows the candy cane-striped bar with either the words 'Finishing sync' or 'Cancelling sync', before showing the Apple logo.
Sometimes, iTunes gets to the syncing stage - "Copying # of ####" - where it will trudge through the first, second and third tracks before flashing "Copying 4 of ####" for a split second and I catch "Cancelling sync" briefly before the Apple logo appears.
Again, I've repeated the steps I mentioned in my previous post. Does ANYONE know when the new version of iTunes is set to be released?! This one is driving me INSANE, to say the least!! -
