A possible reason to problems with HomeSharing and TV shows

I discovered this bug and it may account for some of the problems people describe having with HomeSharing and TV shows (Shows or episodes missing when accessing a homesharing library).
If one selects one or several TV shows (individual episodes or whole season) in iTunes, only those selected will be visible when accessing the shared library from another mac. To fix it, I have to disconnect from the shared library (clicking eject arrow), deselect the TV shows (in list view using the column browser, select All Genre, All Shows and All Seasons) and then reconnect to the shared library.
This problem dos not occur with Movie or Music files.
The problem do not apply if accessing the library from an iOS device (iPod Touch,iPad2,iPhone4, iPhone5).
The library is shared by a Mac Pro (mid-2010, 10.8.2, iTunes 11.0.1(12)) and the problem occurs when accessing the library from a MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini (all using iTunes 11.0.1 under 10.7 or 10.8). All TV shows are home-ripped or home-recorded and do not use any DRM.

If i select music on my machine using the column browser then only the selected music appears under music on in the home share on my wifes machine. If I select the top entry eg Steve's Library then everything shows.
Just tried it for TV Shows and it does the same
Resolved it by removing any selection on my machine, Ejecting the Home Share on my wife's machine. Re selected the Home Share and it reloaded the full list

Problem with iTunes and Tv Shows

Hello, i've just installed the last version of itunes and when i select tv shows as my video type, the video stays on my ipod but i can't acces it. The Tv Shows folder is not created and i can't find them in any other video folder. Is there any other way to create the tv show folder since i can't buy tv shows from itunes because i'm from canada, because i would like to import my seasons of "La vie, La vie" and it's 39 episodes so i would like to be able to make tehm their on folder.
Thanks
(Sorry for my poor english, but as you can see with the title of my show, english is not my primary language)

The TV show option seems to only work for those purchased through the ITunes store. I understand the option is there, but it doesn't work. What I do is rename the file before adding to my IPOD. Keep it under "Movies" and type "TV Show - Then Enter the Name of Show". This way you can scroll straight to the TV Show items under Movies. I use this method and have categories for Cartoons (for the kids), News, Family Videos etc. So if you were to go to my IPOD and hit Movies you would see this:
Cartoon - Bugs Bunny
Family Video - Thanksgiving 04
Family Video - Easter 05
Family Video - Christmas 05
Movie - Shaw Shank Redemption
Movie - War of the Worlds
Movie - Saving Private Ryan
News - Car Chase in Montana
I hope this helps you organize your files better.

Problem with exporting and printing from pages to PDF

I have a problem with my Pages
My font will not be embeded in my pdf files.
I have saved as a ps file and in to the destiller and my fonts are missing.
I need to send my file to the print shop but they will not accept my file and i now understand why.
fonts are missing...
Is there a workaround.
I have no problem in Indesign or quark but pages.....
I need help
thanks a zillion

The font is coming from a notation software Sibelius 4 and is namned opus
Hmmm ... Sibelius is a music notation software and notations are marked up in MusicXML. Presumably the font file is an SFNT with TrueType splines, but it is probably not installed in OS X system folders - rather in an internal Sibelius application font folder. So presumably you do not see the font in FontBook and OS X font auditing does not apply to the font.
Sibelius exports EPS files, right? If memory serves, an EPS is still legal even if the font resource is not embedded. And in any case, we know from the behaviour that the font resource is not embedded for some reason. So how do you get Sibelius to put the font resource inside the graphic ... normally there is a button in the EPS export procedure that gives you the option to Embed All Fonts.
You do not seem to get this button, though. Or why else would you not have checked it already and the problem would have gone away already.
The next point in troubleshooting this is that you are not following the path that would let OS X detect that an external font resource is not embedded.
I go from pages-print-printer- acrobat Pro 8-save as Pdf-x
What you are doing here is telling Pages to tell OS X to generate a PostScript program within which is nested your Encapsulated PostScript program with the call to an unresolved external font resource.
So why does Acrobat Pro not detect the unresolved external font resource? Hmm ... did you try the Preflight option in Acrobat 8 Pro? It should provide information on unresolved embeddings.
I have also tried pages-print-printer- acrobat Pro 8 and save pdf as postscript and put the postscript file in destiller 8 pro with defalt setting high quality print
The whole problem with EPS and PS is that this sort of situation is possible in the first place (plus, what is worse, the PS program can include custom additions to the graphics model that then fail in the PS interpreter whence Apple GX normalizing, Adobe Distiller normalizing, and Apple Quartz normalizing). You want to get as far away from EPS and PS as possible, believe me.
So, you have not done what I posted that you should do in the first place. If I were you, I would first get rid of the problem that the EPS is making a call to an external font and then get rid of the problem that the PostScript is preserving the external call.
To get rid of the problem that the EPS is preserving an external call, simply open the EPS in Apple Preview which includes a NORMALIZER for EPS/PS, and then save out the graphic as PDF. Alternatively, if you don't trust Quartz for some reason, set up a hotfolder for Distiller, make sure the option to embed all fonts is enabled, and convert the EPS to PDF.
Now replace your EPS in Pages with PDF in Pages, and don't save PostScript to disk but save PDF to disk through the proper procedure which is File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF/X [for your custom configuration of the PDF/X-3 filter considering that no sane person in North Europe prints lowend US SWOP, we use ISO].
If you begin by telling OS X that you want PDF within which fonts are supposed to be embedded ALWAYS, then you have started the right way. Otherwise, you have not told the operating system what you want to do, and this then leads you into places where you are unlikely to have the expertise to troubleshoot problems.
So, forget placing EPS in the first place, place PDF. And forget saving PostScript to disk, save PDF to disk. If that does not sort your problem, here is the dirty solution for professional prepress.
Adobe Photoshop has an EPS rasterizer that has wide tolerances for poor PostScript programming (so does Adobe Illustrator 6 and higher by the way).
Therefore, if an EPS is posing problems, one workaround is to rasterize the EPS at high resolution in Photoshop and place that high resolution PDF in your layout.
Take care that you rasterize as 1 bit at the required resolution of the print provider, probably 2450 dpi. When you save the 1 bit as PDF, Photoshop automatically compresses to a very, very small file (don't be surprised if 15Mb compresses to something like 0.5Mb).
Rasterizing in Photoshop should not be necessary if you simply start by telling the operating system what it is you are trying to do. Then the operating system should be able to take the right decisions for you, and tell if you if finds problems it cannot resolve without turning to you.
Good luck,

Problems with answering and making calls

I have owned a Droid 2 for almost a year now. I love it! But for the last few months I have had a problem with answering and making calls. Sometimes when I answer a phone call it connects like I have answered the call but I can't hear anything and the other person can't hear me. The call says I am connected and I can see the timer going but there is no communication. It does the same thing when I go to make calls sometimes. I can hit send and it connects the call but I can't hear anything. The timer is going and the other person answers but I can't hear anything. The only reason I know they answered is because they then call me back and leave a voicemail, sounding very confused. I have to restart my phone and then the problem is solved. But only for a little bit. I haven't been able to pick out a pattern or anything. It is random and very frustrating. I went into my local Verizon store about the issue and they arranged for me to receive a new, certified pre-owned phone because I pay insurance on my phone. I received the phone the next day and everything went great, for a few days. But this phone is also having the same problem. I am getting very frustrated with this because I need to be able to actually talk to people when they call me. Anyone else having the same problem? I want to go back to the store but I feel like they wouldn't do anything more than they did last time, which didn't solve the problem.

I have this same issue on a bi-daily basis: I can place a call, but then I hear nothing. I can answer a call, but I then hear nothing. The calls connect as the people I am in contact with will tell me they answered my calls and heard me, though I could not hear them - and vice versa. Also, this phone does not like to place a call using the "call" option if dialing from "recent calls". I turn this phone on/ off daily, I've taken the battery out on about 50% of the occassions when this issue has happened. This has been a problem for me for approximately 1yr. My early renew date is just shy of 2 months from now and I cannot wait to get rid of this phone. Aside from having great difficulty making/ receiving calls, the phone is overall slow to respond to basic functions like text messaging or using the camera. Also, most times while taking a picture, the camera will "take a picture" but then there is no image in the file. Highly annoying - the only way to temporarily fix this is to reboot - but like the call issue, the problem recurs. I do have a bunch of apps on installed on the phone, but since I also have an APP killer on the phone, nothing aside from "Weather Bug" app is ever really running in the background that would slow this phone. BUT, right now my main concern is may safety: God forbid I am ever in danger or in an emergency situation, this phone's constant malfunctioning could possibly be the physical harm or death of me. I hope that my family can sue the company that provides the software for this phone, Verizon & Motorola in the event of my untimely death.

Problem with Rescue and Recovery after installing Norton Internet Security 2010

Hi all.
It's my first time in this forum.
I have a problem, with Rescue and Recovery, after installing Norton Internet Security 2010 on my T43.
The message I get it:
"Rescue and Recovery is unable to back up the file 'C:\Documents and settings\all Users\Application Data\ Norton\ 00000082\00000109\000003c1\cltMLS1.bat' Because the file is either corrupted or being used by another application. Please close any application that could be using the file.
I tried to close the Norton but I couldn't find how.
Tanks

Hi and welcome to the forum,
the reason for this situation is, that the antivir files are protected from being modified.
This is the reason, why this file cannot be backed up. I assume, that you would get much more such messages, as there are surelly multiple files files, that are protected like this.
So the solution is to block folders from being archived. Please start RnR application and in the configuration set this folder as the excluded one.
This will skip the backup of this file and will fix your situation.
Please let me know, if you have covered this.
Cheers

Problem with connecting and syncing (quicktime.qts)

Hi,
I have a problem with connecting and syncing my Iphone to itunes.
iphone alone on PC -> uploading files (fotos) is possible
itunes starts normaly, if iphone is not conected.
if i connect iphone after starting itunes, or if i start itunes after connecting iphone i get an itunes-error with message:
AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 9.0.2.25 ModName: quicktime.qts
ModVer: 7.65.17.80 Offset: 00909a47
i test different things...
- used another USB-port
- used another PC
- used macbook of my wife instead PC
- deinstalled and new installed of itunes (older and newer versions) folow tutorials of apple
- use another USB-Cable...
I'm resigned, Please help me..
Tom

AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 9.0.2.25 ModName: quicktime.qts
In this context, that can sometimes indicate trouble with a content file on the phone (or Touch).
Do you have any podcasts stored on the iPhone at the moment? If so, if you delete them from the phone, can you connect to iTunes without the error?

My apologies about not explaining further about disabling SPDIF passthrough. See the steps below to enable DDL encoding.
***Before proceeding please make sure that you've purchased, installed and activated the DDL pack***
. Open Creative Audio Console, go to the Decoder tab to disable driver level encoding and enable SPDIF passthrough (this is done by selecting SPDIF passthrough or any similar option that enable the use of an external decoder) instead of using the built-in decoders.
2. Open up your playback devices window (right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select playback devices) and set analog speakers (not SPDIF) as your default device. This is VERY IMPORTANT step, or else you get the "the device is busy" error when enbaling DDL encoding.
3. In the Audio Console, select the Encoder tab and enable DLL encoding.
Note:
When DDL encoding is enabled, it makes exclusi've use of your SPDIF connection so, no passthrough is possible. The default output format when using DDL encoding is 48KHz/6 bits. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) when DLL encoding is enabled, then please change their output device to analog speakers instead of SPDIF.
To use back SPDIF passthrough (when playing back media with a pre-encoded audio source), open up Audio Console and disable DDL encoding and in the Playback Devices window change the default device to SPDIF. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) then please change their output device back to SPDIF. You may also wish to change back your output format to 92KHz/24 bits (right click on SPDIF and select properties -> Advanced tab).

[SOLVED] Problem with modules and udev

Hi everybody,
I've been configuring Arch on my new laptop the last few days and today as I was going to perform the first backup, I noticed that my external HDD does not show up in /dev/ when I plug it in. I figured it could be a problem with udev and the fact that in my /etc/rc.conf I use MOD_AUTOLOAD="no" with an explicit list of MODULES generated with hwdetect (as suggested in the wiki).
To "solve" this I just changed MOD_AUTOLOAD to "yes" and after a reboot everything worked fine.
My questions are:
1) Is it possible to keep that feature (udev detects usb drives and creates the corresponding /dev/sdX) while having MOD_AUTOLOAD="no" ? What is/are the appropriate module(s) I have to put in my MODULES array ?
2) What other such "basic" MODULES could be very useful that hwdetect does not tell about.
Sorry for any English mistakes (I'm not a native speaker) and thank you in advance for your help,
yms

1) Thank you, it works perfectly.
2) Yes I know the question is weird. The thing is I have no precise idea at the moment and I just wanted to know if there are other very widely used features such as the one described in 1) that hwdetect ommits and that has to be loaded in MODULES.
Anyway, thank you very much, I consider this matter [solved]

Problem with Java and Windows (Mainly Vista and UAC)

Hi all,
I am having a problem with a program that I've devoloped. The program itself is packaged as a jar and I plan to deploy it across multiple platforms eventually however right now i am only concerned about windows based systems. I have made an installer for a windows baised systems using NSIS to install the software files. I made the installer as I need several java packages to be installed so the program would work (JAI, J3D, JAI ImageIO) and I also require the program to have fileassociations on windows.
I know that this is not what java is about, however the majority of the users will be on windows baised systems so I've decided that OS specific installers is the best option.
During the process I have noticed that there are several key problem with java for this type of application!
The first issue that I have come across is getting file associations to work on java. As a .jar is not an excutable it is not possible to directly associate a filetype with it in java so to overcome this I currently run the program from a .bat files and also the program requires large memory so this also allows me to run the program with -xmx. The batch file that I use is :
<code>
cd PATH TO PROGRAM
start javaw -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -Xmn100M -Xms500M -Xmx1000M -jar "PATH TO PROGRAM\program.jar" %1 -vram 134217728
pause;
</code>
Ok so all this appears to work fine and allows windows to have file associations and start the program and thats all works perfectly but this is a non-ideal solution. Has anyone got any advice on improving this?
The next problem that I have appears to be a problem with Vista and UAC (user access control). When a user installs the program and installs the program into the program files directory I found that the program did not work and kept saying that I did not have access to the files in the current directory. This is a problem as I read and write settings files during program execution.
On a Vista system UAC prevents file write operations into the Program Files directory unless the program has requested elevated status even if the user is a full administrator. The probem is that there appears to be no real way to achieve this under java that I'm aware of...
Has anyone else had this probem and has a suitable solution?
Any advice on these issues would realy be appricated.
Regards
Joey

Ok so i've kinda found a solution, its not ideal but its very good. I found this program called Elevate
A link to the site I got it was
http://www.wintellect.com/cs/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2007/03/27/elevate-a-process-at-the-command-line-in-vista.aspx
This program allows you start java with a UAC dialog for high access using
Elevate java -jar myjar.jar
This then allows you to have full access using java... I guess it could be dangerous but it does the job.

Problem with tpcall and tpgetrply functions

Hi,
I have a problem with tpcall() and tpgetrply() functions.
In this example (invoke tpcall()):
FBFR32 *buf;
FLDLEN32 buflen;
buf = a_buffer.getBuffer(); /* getBuffer() returns FBFR32* */
buflen = a_buffer.getLongitud();
/* at this point: buf == a_buffer.getBuffer() */
if (tpcall(a_contenedor.getServname(),
(char*)a_contenedor.getBufferPeticion()->getBuffer(),
a_contenedor.getBufferPeticion()->getLongitud(),
(char**)&buf,
(long*)&buflen,
0) == -1)
if (tperrno != TPESVCFAIL)
LANZAR_EXCEPCION(CADENA_WHAT_SB,
"Error en funcion Execute(), llamada tpcall()",
tpstrerror(tperrno))
/* at this point: buf != a_buffer.getBuffer() */
tpcall() function change the memory address of buf. What is the problem? Is wrong my code? Is a problem with tuxedo version?
My tuxedo version is:
tmadmin -vINFO: BEA Tuxedo, Version 8.0, 32-bit, Patch Level 306
INFO: Serial #: 650522264137-773290431251, Expiration NONE, Maxusers 150
INFO: Licensed to: Telefonica Moviles Espa?a, S.A.
INFO: 56-bit Encryption Package
Thanks,
ANTONIO.

There's nothing wrong with your code or tuxedo. tpcall (and tpgetrply) can change the address of the return buffer if it needs to allocate more memory to hold the data. This is the reason why you pass a pointer to the buffer as the output buffer parameter to tpcall and tpreturn. Everything is working as expected.

Problem with attachments and antivirus.scanners

Hi!
Problem is: Sending any attachment from Tiger (10.4.8) mail, all attachments are removed by a virus scanner at receiving end:
This message was modified by F-Secure Anti-Virus E-Mail Scanning.
Tried Windows friendly, text only, repair permissions, sending under other isp etc. no help.
If this same message with same attachment is send from next mac with Panther, it is received ok.
Receiving company is big and wont alter their virus-scanners and the problem clearly lies in Tiger.
Any help welcome.
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

The subject of your message should have been "Problems with attachments and F-Secure antivirus" since this is not a problem with all antivirus software, only with F-Secure.
Check this thread for a possible temporary solution when sending attachments to those who use F-Secure.

Problem with TextInput and RadioButton

Hi,
I've encountered a problem with TextInput and RadioButtons.
I've created some text fields and radio buttons for a
feedback form under a movie _root.feedback.
But for some reason, I can't seem to enter text into the text
field (no blinking cursor), and I can't see the "label" next to my
radio buttons.
Just as a workaround, I tried moving these fields to _root,
and now I can enter text and see the radio button labels.
But to keep my hierarchy clean, I want to use a the
_root.feedback movie for my feedback fields. Any ideas what could
be going wrong? I checked Window -> Component Inspector, and
these textInput fields are enabled.
Stuck.
Thanks.

Is the text the same color as the background or do you need
embedded fonts?

Problem with navigation and masthead by changing languages with Anonymous

Hi All,
i have a problem with navigation and masthead by changin the language when accessing as anonymous user.
Ive created two additional users anon_de (with language german )and anon_en (for english).
I've created also two links in the in masthead:
/irj/portal/anonymous?guest_user=anon_en and /irj/portal/anonymous?guest_user=anon_de
When i choose "de" for the first time it works fine, but when i choose "en" again the language in the content are is changing to english again, but not in navigation and masthead. When i click again on link for "en" the languge is set to english. Strange thing is that when i click on "de" instead the portal content change to german but masthead and navigation are in english now, as it should be before....
It seems that masthead and navigation have always prevoius language selected.
Do you know, what could be the reason of that strange behavior?
Thanks for help
Karol

Hi Detlev,
you are right. the user is not "updated" fast enough... the strange thing is, that it works by the first time i change the language...
well.. i can implement that workaround as you suposed, but it would be a really workaround as the same page will be requestes second time, causing requests number to be double..
Thanks for help
ps. i forgot to mark this message as question to give points.. if you tell me how i can change that ill reward your answer..

Problems with Mail and Safari

Hi,
I'm running OS 10.11 and am having some consistent problems with Mail and Safari on my MacPro Dual 2.66. Here they are:
Sometimes, for no apparent reason, selecting these applications from the dock no longer opens the application (or a new window if already opened), but causes them to be revealed in the finder.
In Safari, when this problem occurs, another symptom seems to be that new windows will ONLY open in a new tab, even though I have preferences set to open links in a new window. If I click on a bookmark within a folder in the bookmark toolbar, Safari will open ALL the bookmarks in the folder in new tabs!!
In Mail, when I open my Inbox, clicking on various messages will highlight (in blue) ALL the messages I'm clicking on, instead of simply displaying the highlighted message in the reader.
The only way to get things back to normal is to reboot my machine, which is getting to be a total drag, especially since this seems to happen fairly often.
One other thing that may be related- if my screen saver is running, and I move the mouse to go to an active screen, the computer will "freeze." It stays like this indefinitely- I figured out that if I press the button on the machine itself it will go to sleep, and I can wake it up and then everything is fine, but I don't understand what's going on.
I have tried using Disk Utility and Disk Warrior, and have used OnyX to clean out my system cache and aall sorts of other stuff, but to no avail.
Is anybody else experiencing any of this? I'm starting to get really frustrated. Thanks for any advice.
Cheers,
Andrew

Scott,
I had posted earlier that I had Flash payer problems and then QuickTime and PDF preview problems too, on my Intel PowerMac. I could not figure out what the problem was, because fixing permissions and moving plugins did not work. Console indicated that the Quicktime components were not found, with the problem in a webkit pref file somewhere (nil field value). Anyway, I bailed and reinstalled Leopard from a 10.5.0 DVD, and then updated using the combo updater to 10.5.3. Everything worked. Then, after the 'Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 1', it all broke again. This time, repairing permissions resulted in:
