7.0.9 update screws up Konqueror File manager in Fedora 7

Reader was running fine and I did the latest update. Since then I can't navigate in the Konqueror file browser any more as the reader made itself the mode to open everything. If I click on a folder Reader opens (naturally empty). I de-installed it and now I get the error message that KDEinit can't find acroread (sure, I got rid of it).
The same happened to my wife in WinXP but there the problem was fixed by uninstalling Acroread.
Does somebody know how to fix Konqueror???? I don't need Acroread any more as there are sufficient less intrusive readers available.
Thanks,
Juergen

Well, I had it happen to me again yesterday, i.e., all graphics files defaulting to Preview. I changed them back using the procedure I used earlier, but if this continues, it's going to be a MAJOR problem.
Even after you selected, for
example, Graphic Converter as the default application
in the Open With pop-up menu, per step 3 in "Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Changing
the application that opens a document."
Unfortunately, no, not even after selecting Graphic Converter as the default app in the Open With menu.
I think you
mean Show Inspector, which is Command-Option-I, vs.
Command-I for Get Info. The Inspector displays
common info for a selection of objects, so you can
change the default app for multiple files in one
window.
Hmm ... I get the same "Multiple Item Info" panel whether I hit Command-I and Command-Option-I if I have more than 10 files selected. In any case, I hit Command-I to bring up the Multiple Item Info panel.
3. The anomalies you described are very strange. As
a general check, run the Procedure specified in my
"Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache
Corruption" FAQ. I'd recommend at least running
Steps 1-3.
I'll give it a go. Thanks!

Konqueror file management and auto-refresh

Hello all,
I am working with Arch and KDEmod and so far everything is pretty good. I do have one problem that is a bit annoying.
Konqueror file manager windows do not automatically refresh when viewing the URLs system:/home or system:/users/jay. The system:/home URL is what is opened when you click on the "Home" icon, so this makes this problem stand out.
Anyway, the problem can be reduced by doing the following:
1. Open Konqueror file browser and select "Home Folder" from the tree on left. This puts you at the URL system:/home. (Alternately, just click on the "Home" icon that gets set up in the kicker by KDEmod.)
2. In a terminal window create a file in your home directory. Note that the file does not show up in the Konqueror window.
3. Press F5 to refresh Konqueror. The newly created file now appears.
4. In a terminal window delete the file you just created. Again, note that the file does not disappear from the Konqueror window.
5. Press F5 to refresh Konqueror. The file now disappears.
The correct behavior is that when you create and delete the file, it shows and then disappears from the Konqueror window accordingly. Currently this does not work for the system:/home (Home Folder) or system:/users/jay (Users Folders/<user full name>) URLs. Interestingly enough, if I type the URL "/home/jay" into the Konqueror location bar in file management mode and then do the above steps, the auto-refresh works fine.
Does anyone have any clues as to why the refresh doesn't work for the system:/ URLs? Is this by design? What plugin actually provides the system:/ URL schema?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Jay

Hi LunAds,
I'm afraid you have just discovered how bad these features are implemented in Excel: they just don't work properly and I always advise against using them for any serious long-term solution.
If you do not have Excel services, then editing the document on the server (which would prevent lots of problems) is out of the question indeed.
Alternatives depend a lot on your needs.
For example, you could use sharepoint lists that the users can edit and then import those lists into Excel for reporting purposes.
But if this is relational data (parent-child tables, which is very often the case) then a database solution is probably the best route to take.

10.4.7 update screws up image file associations

Since installing the 10.4.7 update, all my image files now open in Preview as the default application, regardless of Type or Creator.
I know that the file association of an individual can be changed via Get Info, however, I have 11,000+ image files in various formats as well as several thousand PDFs scattered across three hard drive, and do not want to waste several days tracking them all down and changing their file associations manually.
I know that the "Change All" button in the Get Info panel is supposed to change all documents of a given type to the selected application, however, the "Change All" function seems to be broken because hitting "Change All" simply reverts everything to Preview.
Deleting Preview does not solve the problem, as everything then defaults to Image Tricks; deleting Image Tricks simply defaults everything to Color Sync; deleting Color Sync defaults everything to Graphic Converter, which is fine for JPEGS, but I need Photoshop files to open in Photoshop, Illustrator files to open in Illustrator, etc.
Is there a script or other simple way of changing the default application for various file types at the system level, i.e., so that .JPG always open in Graphic Converter, .PSD and .TIF in Photoshop, .PDF in Acrobat Reader, etc.?
Thanks.

10.5.8 Software update screws permissions

I had a recent disk crash on my MacBook, so bought a new hard-disk for it. I installed OSX with the original disks that I have. That is to say I did the following:
Install 10.4 with 2 disks
Upgrade to 10.5 with the official upgrade disk
All seems to work fine at this stage. So I installed some additional software and everything works fine. Then I did the Apple Software Update (from the menu in the top left corner). Amongst other things, this installs Safari 4.0.3 and upgrades the OS version to 10.5.8.
Next time I boot up, I find out that Firefox doesn't load up. Some searching around the net and I find out that this might be related to disk permission problems. It's at this time that I discover that I am unable to create any new folders on my Desktop. The error reported when I try to is:
The operation could not be completed
An unexpected error occurred (error code -8058)
I run Disk Utility, and find a few hundred disk permission problems. "Repair Disk Permissions" button reports that it fixes all issues, but running the check again finds just as many violations.
To make sure that it wasn't something i did, I formatted the disk again, and re-installed the OS. But applying the updates screws up my permissions again.
So: the underlying problem appears to be with permissions. This manifests itself in several ways, including this problem with my desktop. To repeat, I cannot interact with the desktop itself (the computer background), although I can access it via the Finder. (e.g. Any USB files I add to the system don't appear on the desktop, but do appear in the desktop directory in the Finder).
Other problems that I've found (I suspect this is not an exhaustive list):
- Cannot redeploy DMG files (I tried to download and redeploy MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.8.dmg after finding suggestions that this might fix my problems). I then found that other DMG files don't work!
- Some programs (most notably Firefox) simply won't open (even in safe-mode).
Does anybody have any ideas as to what might be going wrong? And how I can fix it?
It can't be a compatibility problem with the specific hard-disk that I replaced - can it?
Thanks,

Thanks Kappy.
I followed this technique on my third re-installation with no success. I did it a fourth time, and instead of running the unified 10.5.8 update, I ran each of the 10.5.x updates individually. (10..5.1 followed by 10.5.2 etc.) This frustrating and time-consuming work-around seemed not to replicate the problem again, and I've been running happily for 2 weeks since.
However, after attempting to install a third party application tonight (a free app from the Web that I hoped would help me re-import my lost iTunes library from my iPod, an application I hasten to add, which I need because iTunes itself won't let me recover my library from my iPod), the whole system hung again, crashing the Finder app. After an leaving the system alone for an afternoon in order to allow Finder to recover itself, I forced a reboot. Now I find that I am unable to write anything to my desktop again. The original problem is back!!
I'm very frustrated at the moment as I am unable to pin down the cause exactly. Certainly however, there is something very unstable about the MacBook's setup! I'm pretty sure it's down to one of the following:
1) The OS has some kind of allergy to the particular brand of hard-disk that I've put into my MacBook after the original crash. This I find fairly unlikely, although I'd like to hear someone else's opinions and experiences on similar matters.
2) 10.5.8 has a bug in it. My chief suspects are the reported disk permission issues, much discussed in these forums. I strongly suspect that they are not quite as innocent as Apple make them out to be: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
I'm going to reinstall my OS for the 5th time now. I will only upgrade the OS to 10.5.7 and run with that for a while to see what happens. If I run happily for a month with this setup, I would very much like to report this as a 10.5.8 'issue' to Apple. Does anyone know how I can do this in an official capacity?

New Software Update screwed up my Q5

Last week my Q5 conected to my WiFi, by itself!! and downloaded that new update. Many things changed that weren't a big deal BUT it also screwed up my view. By that I mean is "everthing" needs to be re-sized down to be able to read it. So if a text comes in, it is so large that the reply type bar does not show up. It's a bitch to have to try and re-size "every time" without hiting something unintended. I had it working perfectly. Blackberry!!! I want a fix for this or I'll ship it back and post the worst online rant you have ever heard.
If anyone has a fix for this that doesn't involve shipping it back, I'd love to hear it.
Cheers, with Canadian Beer. :-)

Hi @dboppre
Thanks for reaching out about this issue.
To confirm, after upgrading to BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.3.1, your display was magnified. After turning off Magnify mode, the issue was resolved but after restarting your device the issue returned?
If this is accurate do you mind gathering logs for me as well doing a quick test and letting me know the results?
How to gather logs;
Open the Help App
Swipe down from the top of the screen, tap Create Report
Tap Save Log Snapshot
If prompted to upload logs, tap No
After doing this, open the File Manage app and navigate to documents\logs. Within you should see a file along the lines of bbswltLog<date>.zip.
Tap and hold this file followed by tapping Share and finally tap your email address. Send the log to the email address I’ve sent you via private message.
After gather logs, can you answer the following as well?
After turning off Magnify mode the first time, how did you restart your device? Did you press and hold the power button for 10+ seconds, or did you press the power button followed by tapping Restart on your display?
If you disable Magnify mode again and restart your device, does the issue come back again?
If the issue comes back, create another set of logs and send them in for review.
Thanks!

Code doesn't update when uploading new files to website.

code doesn't update when uploading new files to website. I was using an old DW version for a long time then forced to upgrade when I bought my MacBook Pro. Now when I make changes to my pages and link to new files etc on my harddrive, when i upload the pages it won't image because the code still points to harddrive (this did not used to be a problem)... I manually changed the code on the web host site to point to the site and it loaded fine. But now my files on my harddrive also point to the web host files and now don't image on my computer. I never had to worry about this so far and wonder if the new version has a setting I'm supposed to be aware of so that I can design on my hardrive and upload and it knows that the files are being uploaded with it? Ugh hpe this makes sense - I'm NOT a webs designer and the new DW is way more than I use in it's technology.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error message that Iphone cound not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error that Iphone could not be updated because the firmware file not compatible.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

Using iTunes 10.5.2.11 on a PC running 64 bit Windows 7
First did a full back up of iphone using iTunes
Put iphone into Recovery Mode ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 ). Erases all user data and settings!
Disconnected USB cable from iphone
Powered off iphone by holding down Sleep/Off button until slider appeared, slid to off, waited until screen dark
Pressed and kept holding Home button while plugging cable back into phone
I still saw the graphic on the iphone that said to plug into iTunes, so I unplugged and re-plugged cable. (I may have released the Home button too soon)
Recovery Mode alert came up in iTunes.
Followed all iTunes prompts to restore phone - it downloaded and sucessfully installed iOS 5.0.1
iphone did not appear in iTunes due to missing pairing file (that made me nervous)
iphone was now at factory settings. I followed prompts on iphone screen to start reactivation process
Eventually the iphone asked if I wanted to restore from a back-up (whew!)
A window opened in iTunes and I was able to select my previous back-up file for the restore
A full restore from back-up then occured
I also allowed a carrier settings update to occur when prompted (not sure that happens in all cases)
When the restore was done I had to re-enter some passwords, but everything was there
iOS is now 5.0.1 (9A406). The whole process took about an hour.

The iPod "my ipod name" cannot be updated. The required file is in use.

Installed iTunes 7 on my mac. Everything went fine. Updated my ipod everything went fine. Ever since then I've been getting a dialogue pop up window stating "The iPod "my ipod name" cannot be updated. The required file is in use."
This pop up happens at completely random intervals, sometimes every minute sometimes every 10 min.
Its extremely annoying as it bounces the icon in the dock until I give iTunes focus, click ok, and then I can navigate songs etc. I listen to my music thru my iPod while its connected to my computer, so this bug just about has me reverting back to v6.
I've repaired permissions, and disabled anything I could think of that may be using it, ie synergy etc, with no success.

I have a 4th Gen 30gb IPOD and updated Itunes 7 sucessfully but could not update/install IPOD 1.2 upgrade.
Eventually after clicking the message boxes with the above info we seem to be getting, I selected the update button that appears on the front page of ITUNES and it installed/updated. I have been attempting for a couple of days and it just worked!!!!
After it completed, I received the same dialog box and then disconnected the IPOD from my laptop.
Seems to be OK now but there is def something going on.
I thought it may be a shareware issue with mp3's being downloaded into Itunes library form another application.

IPod "cannot be updated. The current file is in use."....how to fix?!

I have a MacBook and the iPod Nano that came with it. I also have a 4G(I think) 20GB iPod. I have both configured to my Macbook, using only certain playlists to be updated on each iPod.
I don't get any problems when I connect the 20GB iPod(w/ the Firewire), but whenever I connect my Nano(w/ the USB, I have to, it doesn't support Firewire), I get a message saying the iPod"cannot be updated. The current file is in use."
How do I fix this problem? I have my iPod to "Enable disk use", but everything else is OK, and I have separate playlists and designate each iPod to Sync Selected Playlists Only, and have different playlists selected.
How do I fix this and/or why is this problem happening?
(and I'm still going to ask any kind souls to check my previous posts and answer my Playlist Question thread, as that is a nagging problem as well)

I fiddeled around and I am still having this problem. Can someone help me.

dell Windows XP 30 gb video

I had the same problem. I had to uninstall 7.0 and install 6.0 and was able to restore OK. I'm back using 6.0, but just got a second generation ipod nano, so I have to go to 7.0 or greater. My only words of wisdom are DO NOT SET ANY LOCKS until you are really sure you want to. Also with 7.0 I could not eject my ipod unless I went to the "safe to eject ipod" command. Apple has some problems to work out and I hope soon. Clumsy as best...............
