After restart machine
Every thing was installed perfectly even Agent configuration and url for 4889/em (for grid)
was also running finely.
But i restart the machine (red hat AS4) , i start these manually ie
1) Database with sql not with dbstart script
2)oms10g/opmn/bin/opmnctl startall
3)agent10g/bin/emctl start agent
All these are executed without any error.
but when i use the URL 4889/em the following error is coming
503 Service Unavailable
Servlet error: Service is not initialized corectly. Verufy that repository connection information provided is correct ."
i use this ping command but
"agent10g/bin/emctl pingOMS"
error is
"EMD pingOMS error: No response header from OMS"
The Log may help u which i got from emoms.log
"2008-03-19 01:22:36,132 [AJPRequestHandler-ApplicationServerThread-5] ERROR conn.ConnectionService verifyRepositoryEx.816 - Invalid Connection Pool. ERROR = Listener refused the connection with the following error:

The Connection descriptor used by the client was:

plz help me in this matter also, Thanx
Can you copy and paste the contents of your listener.ora please.
I suspect you haven't listed the database in there.
also what is the output of:
emctl status oms

After upgrade to ios7, few time i am having problem with my sound/speaker with terroble sound effect like machine or something.but after restart it will be fine.but how this thing can be fix? Because i never had this problem before upgrade to ios7.tq
Try going into your settings and 'reset all settings'
You will need to retweak your device but it's been said to help with sound issues. -
My Final Cut X changed behaviour after conneting the external monitor via HDMI. Several times after restarting Final Cut X was very slow and it always kept repeating rendering on same three clips after every restart. Later the dual screen icon disapeared on the top of my screen and it stops rendering on every restart like before and the machine was normal and faster. Now Final Cut won't start anymore whenever I start it loads and crushes immediately on every restart.

Time Machine backups only work after restart
Hi
Getting frustrated as Time Machine backups only work after a restart. Work for a few hours and then get stuck with Backing up: XXMB of XXGB. I have left it on this for many hours ie overnight without completion
I have a Mid 2014 MBP 13 in running 10.10.2
I backup onto an external USB via a hub.
Things I have tried with review of Pondini great site which has helped with different TM backup problems.
Disk permissions and repair of SSD on MBP (were errors but did not solve issue)
Direct USB connection
Backup via Airport Extreme
Re-index spotlight
Reformat USB disk
New USB disk!
Below is log (backupd filtered) of latest backup attempts including final completed occuring after restart.
Any help gratefully received

Backup completed successfully.1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
The test results are on the Clipboard.
Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

Acrobat Pro for Mac won't start, even after restarting the machine. Any suggestions?
Acrobat Pro for Mac won't start, even after restarting the machine. Any suggestions?
Hi Patrick,
Can you please mention the version of Adobe Acrobat that you are using and on what OS version. Also mention whether this problem has started recently and was running fine earlier or is it a fresh install and has never worked for you.
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the product after you started facing this issue.

Can't select boot disk after restart from Windows 7
I installed Windows 7 RC 7100 on the Mini a while ago and it is working now using the Apple drivers and an updated chipset driver from Nvidia... except:
When I restart the machine from OS X and hold the Option key I get the disk selection screen and I can boot into either OS. But, when I restart the machine from Windows 7 and hold the option key I do not get the disk selection screen and the machine boots into OS X. I have also encountered issues with the Bluetooth keyboard not being recognized after restarting from Windows 7, but this does not happen consistently and seems to occur mainly when I hold down the Option key.
Any suggestions for a fix, tweak or workaround? Thanks.Are you using a wired keyboard?
Are yo saying that when you boot while depressing ALT it just tries to boot to Windows with not options or anything showing on the screen
Try another keyboard -
PCI wireless card does not work after restart - FM2-A55M-E33
Installed TP-LINK WN751ND wireless PCI card onto FM2-A55M-E33 motherboard. The card works fine after cold start, but does not work after restart. Windows recognises the card, but it gets code 10, cannot start.
BIOS is updated (v.11.1), as well as drivers and Windows 7 64.
I suspect that this might be the issue: Incorrect ASPM Transitions on the GPP Interface as found in ChipsetMotherboard_TechDocs/48671.pdf on AMD's official support site.
Does anyone know more about this issue?Great! I've done that and now my card shows up. Thing is, when I try to get an IP address, it won't work. Here is the command output:
ieee80211 phy0: wl_ops_config: change monitor mode: false (implement)
ieee80211 phy0: wl_ops_config: change power-save mode: false (implement)
ieee80211 phy0: wl_ops_bss_info_changed: qos enabled: false (implement)
And then it times out and no IP is assigned. The thing is, wpa_supplicant stays alive after this time out, and I am unable to kill it (killall -9 wpa_supplicant won't kill it). At this point if I try to reboot the machine, it will stop at 'Rebooting' and won't go anywhere. If I turn off the wireless card in its switch Linux crashes. If I try to get an ip again (by running dhcpcd) the command will hang and not return to the shell anymore.
I am unable to find any useful information in the logs.
Got any more suggestions?
Thanks! (And sorry to disturb so much) -
My Finder / User preferences never saved after Restart. Help!
After a "successful" back-up from Time Machine (thanks, Time Machine), my files seem to all be here, but my Finder and basic Application preferences have never been the same since.
My MacBook Pro 17" hard drive crashed. I had an authorized Apple repair replace it with a new drive. I restored my set-up via Time Machine as instructed and was happy to see I was (mostly) back in good shape.
What HASN'T been the same since - when I RESTART:
- Whenever I shut down/restart, my desktop will always revert back to the last "mode" pre-crash. For example, one same folder is always open, as it happened to be the folder opened during the crash. Now, no matter what I seem to have opened on my desktop before I shut down, that other "old" folder always greets me after a restart.
- Many applications I notice do not "remember" the last settings changed/used, always reverting to the "pre-crash" setting. Notable examples:
- iChat settings (buddy icon, status, etc.) must ALWAYS be manually adjusted when I open iChat now.
- iTunes and iPhoto are a big drag to open, because I must always "find" my libraries. They have long been moved to an external drive, but these iApps always ask me to locate them or create new ones. Even if I attempt to change my preferences.
- Dock: the settings/icons revert back to the "pre-crash" version, and since I have updated many Apps, several icons show the Question Mark symbol, as some old Apps are long gone.
I tried Disk Utility, repairing permissions. It recognized many inconsistencies and problems,
but the repairs never seem to "stick."
Again, this happens each time I restart/reboot.
So if I only put my MacBook to sleep mode, it does fine when it wakes up,
and remembers desktop settings, iChat settings, etc.
Therefore, I only rarely shut down now, to avoid my Groundhog's Day syndrome.

Apparently the previous preferences were copied over by TM.
First it would probably be a good idea to start up from the install disk and run Disk Utilities’ Repair Disk. If you don’t know how to do that, reply back for specific directions.

Because it appears to be preference files that cause the problem, you can begin removing them from the Preferences folder. These .plist files can be moved to the Desktop and the system will recreate new ones in the Preferences folder. If removing the .plist file doesn’t help, the one on the desktop can be moved back into the Preferences folder to replace the newly created one.
Locate the Preference folder by this path:
Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences
(where “yourusername” is the short name of your computer, like hawaii - the folder looks like a house/home)
Often users confuse the above path with Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences. That is not the one needed. The correct one is the Preference folder in the Users home folder.
The same folder appearing after restarting is related to the Finder, so move the file named com.apple.finder.plist to the Desktop and restart. If that helps preventing the same folder appearing, you will need to reset all your Finder preferences. If not, you can return the old .plist file from the Desktop back to the Preferences folder and will need to look for another solution.

- Dock: the settings/icons revert back to the "pre-crash" version, and since I have updated many Apps, several icons show the Question Mark symbol, as some old Apps are long gone.
Each of the above has its own .plist file(s) in the above named Preferences folder.
It’s probably best to quit the applications before removing the preferences. Try moving the main .plist files, i.e., com.apple.iChat.plist to the desktop and restart iChat. If it doesn’t help, remove the other .plist files related to iChat. They will be replaced by the system. Some newly created .plist files don’t function until after a restart (like the Finder one described above). I don’t think iChat, iTunes, etc., require a restart, but it couldn’t hurt. If this helped with iChat, do the same procedure for iTunes, Dock, and any others giving you problems.
If these do not help, you may need to consider an Archive & Install.
I tried Disk Utility, repairing permissions. It recognized many inconsistencies and problems,
but the repairs never seem to "stick."
As long as the permissions inconsistencies include “Permissions differ,” SUID or ACL warnings, you can probably safely ignore them. But there is a .plist file for DiskUtility as well, which you may want to replace by moving it to the Desktop and restarting. If at the end of Repair Permissions it says “Permission Repair Complete,” it’s probably okay.
Again, this happens each time I restart/reboot.

CC 2014 on Yosemite shows applications launched after restart (but they are not)
Wondering if anyone else is having this issue. Running Yosemite GM on a late 2009 27" iMac.
All of the apps (except Bridge...which has been extensively discussed) appear to work fine. I routinely use Illustrator, PShop, After Effects, and Audition....no issues...
When I restart my machine, however, and OS X goes to restore all of the apps that were open before restarting...that's when things get strange. In my dock, there are dots below the apps that were open, indicating that they've relaunched....although if I click on one of the icons in the dock to move over to that app, the app launches....it wasn't actually open although it shows as open and running in the dock. Furthermore, if you right click on one of the "running" icons after restart it shows the app as non-responsive and asks if you want to force quit.
It really hasn't made any material difference in my work...like I said, all of the apps work (except Bridge when it comes to previewing AE presets) and it's just mildly frustrating....
Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks
sparkJeff,
I have two machines, a late 2009 27" iMac running Yosemite 10.10.2 with 12g of ram, and an early 2009 17" MacBook Pr with 8g of RAM, same OS.
Creative Cloud runs perfectly on the MacBook Pro, all the apps hang on the iMac. I have disabled every extension, I have deleted CC and reinstalled, I have deleted all the apps and ran the cleaner and reinstalled everything, they still hang. I use dropbox and have unchecked the finder config, both machines. I use FontAgent Pro on both machines. Both machines have Skyfonts. I have no problem with any other app on the iMac or the MacBook Pro. No wifi issues. We just moved here 10 days ago, the problem started then. If it was unseated RAM, other applications would be affected, and they are not. Can you help?

Finder Resetting After Restart
Hello,
I recently restored my preferences folders, both on the Macintosh HD and my user account, from a Time Machine backup to solve a problem that I was having with my trackpad.
I am now finding that whenever I add any shortcuts to my finder sidebar they disappear after restarting my machine.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and successfully solved it?
Many thanks/Hello again:
Confused!
Me too (no help to you). It is possible I do not understand what you are trying to do as I do not add things to the finder sidebar. Usually trashing a preference file corrects all sorts of things.
The reinstall (over your existing system) would, at least, almost eliminate software issues. An alternative would be to do a complete restore from a TM backup at a point in time where things were working the way you wanted.

Slow Loading of mountain lion after restart
Hello, after installation of mountain Lion it takes about 50-60 minutes every time to load the system after restart. What's wrong with my macbook pro late 2011?
It worked, I should have mounted the installation image on an external drive, not the drive of my machine operating system.

Error icon shown after restarting
I have upgraded my Mac Mini from Mavericks to Yosemite, the installation ran fine and the system started up into Yosemite without issues. However after restarting my machine, a white screen with an Apple logo appears with a progress bar below it, the progress bar will go up to about 35% and then show an error icon.
How can I fix this? Unfortunately I did not make a backup of the OS nor do I use Time Machine.
What are my options? Is there a way I can read through the logs to see what is failing to possibly try and fix it?Try actually opening message and clicking reply icon to respond rather than right clicking on message preview. I have had same bug (which Apple should fix all the same), but have found that if you open the message as its own discreet window, then the "replied to" icon will appear. Hope this is helpful

Mac Pro 2013 fan speeds up to maximum after restart.
My brand new Mac Pro 2013, hanged on shutdown..
so I had to restart by using the button on the cylinder, when it restarted it sounded like a vacuum cleaner, the fan started to spin fast and didn't stop anymore and my mac was suddenly very slow :S.
After restarting the mac pro works fine again! this happened 2 times now...
Already called with apple they said that i should try and work with it and see if the problem comes back again.
Maybe any of you knows what could be wrong.??????
I'm mainly using the machine for Logic Pro X and sometimes for some video editing.

Desktop Icons Change Positions After Restart
Hi,
After I inadvertently synced my computer with another Mac computer my icons change position after restart. I was trying to sync another computer to mine.
I have tried the usual suggestions of taking out com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist and letting the system create these new files but the problem still persists. I also checked the Finder > View > Show View Options and arrange by none is still selected.
Does anyone have a suggestion how I can fix this problem? Will I have to go back in time with Time Machine and restore my entire system to solve this?
I can't operate with the desktop icons changing positions like this.
Thanks,
PacecomDelete the hidden .DS_Store file associated with your Desktop folder. Launch the Terminal.app (in /Applications/Utilities/), copy & paste the following command into the window that pops up, hit the return key, quit the Terminal.app, OPTION-click and hold the Dock's Finder icon, and select Relaunch:
*rm ~/Desktop/".DS_Store"*
Now, set the Desktop as desired, log out and back in, and the Desktop should be as it was as you last set it. -
Feezing after Restart or Shut Down commands
Perhaps this is a common problem, as I have seen it happen before, but I have a Mac G5 in my lab that, after being told to restart, or shut down, the icons disappear like normal, but it just sits there with the desktop background up. No shut down, no restart.
I can restart manually by holding down the power button, but this machine is the master image for the lab and has to be able to shut down by timer, due to our college's "green" policies. If it won;t shut down on it's own, and has to be done manually, it defeats the purpose.
I've already resatrted from the CD and ran Disk Utility to repair and verify permissions. It did find errors, and said it fixed them, but after restarting from the hard drive again, it is still freezing after given the shut down or restart commands. The cursor still moves and the desktop background are there, just no icons or dock.
Any help is greatly appreciated!Hi-
The power functions of the machine are controlled by the PMU/SMU.
A reset may be what is needed.
