Alarms causing problems - should I reinstall?

I have a Z22 and have been running Palm Desktop 4.2 on Windows XP Pro. Recently I was having trouble connecting for HotSync, so, following published troubleshooting suggestions, I installed Palm 6.2 over 4.2. I was able to get my data back, but Palm Desktop would crash whenever I accessed certain months in Date Book. I was also getting error message that Alarm Manager was crashing when I tried to synch, and I realized that the months that couldn't be accessed have events with an alarms. I tried reinstalling and changing settings, and at some point I was able to synch and could access the problem months. Then it started crashing again. Now I have no data in Palm Desktop, it is on the Z22, but I can't complete a synch because it is hanging when it gets to Date Book (I have to kill it with the Task Manager).
I wouldn't mind uninstalling 6.2 and going back to the 4.2 installation disk, but I am intimidated by having to edit the registry. What are my alternatives?

Try these steps and see if they work for you.
Ok, first we need to see if you can sync without calendar checked. On your computer right click the hotsync icon and go to custom. Then click on calendar and then change. We are going to set calendar to do nothing and check the box that says set as default. Close up the menus and try to hotsync if it syncs fine good continue on.
Next we need to install a program on to your device called DBFixit (here's the link http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm) Download this file on the right side of the page. Then install the application to the device. Once on the device open it up and tap on the blue bar but in the top left select delete calendar blobs and say OK or yes. Then keep running that till you have 0 listed or no blobs found. Then we are going to hotsync with calendar syncing from the device to the PC. Again right click the hotsync icon and go to custom. Then click on calendar and then change. Then select handheld overwrites desktop. Sync and post back if that fixed the issue.
If it did then we need to change the sync to sync the files and set that as default. To do that, again right click the hotsync icon and go to custom. Then click on calendar and then change. Then select sync the files and set as default box checked. You should be all set at that point.

Powerbook G4 10.4.6 problems, should i reinstall?

Since updating to 10.4.6, my powerbook G4 has begun to go to sleep at random times, even in the middle of tasks such as printing. I have set the system preferences to never go to sleep to try and combat this but it still does it repeatedly! On top of this, it sometimes will not wake up, leaving me no choice but to take the battery out and restart it. I have heard from various sources that there are problems with the latest OS update and my local apple reseller has told me to backup everything and reinstall. Has anyone had the same problem and do i really need to reinstall? Thanks

After each and every major OS update is released, some experience a problem after installing the update but generally, any problem experienced after installing a major OS update is caused by an existing/underlying and unnoticed problem that was brought to the surface by installing the update but not caused by the update.
I've experienced no such problems with 10.4.6.
Why are you taking the battery out to shutdown and restart? Are you unable to perform a hard shut down by pressing the start-up button until the computer shuts down?
Either way and as you probably know, a hard shut down is not good for a hard drive under any platform.
Before re-installing 10.4 with your install disc, check Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption for system troubleshooting procedures and when doing so, follow all steps/instructions in the order provided.
Afterwards, try downloading the 10.4.6 Combo Update and re-install 10.4.6. If you don't have an Intel Mac, you can download the PPC 10.4.6 Combo Update here.

OS X isn't Windows so performing either an Archive & Install or an Erase & Install should always be performed as a final/last resort.

I want to uninstall ReloadEvery as I think it is causing problems however it is not in my list of Extensions or Plugins yet it is clearly installed, I tried reinstalling FF but it was still there! How can I get rid of it?

I installed ReloadEvery a while ago and it seemed to be working fine however I am now having problems with FF crashing and weird things like pages not reloading and not being able to use the back button etc
I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling FF and upgrading to FF 4.
When I upgraded to FF 4 I was still having problems even though I didn't have any Extensions installed at all, or so I thought. I noticed that ReloadEvery was still installed. I was rather puzzled as I had done a clean install of FF 4. I want to remove ReloadEvery to see if it will solve my problems.
I have also tried following the help on the FF Troubleshooting about manually uninstalling Extensions but again ReloadEvery not listed there yet I am still able to use it in FF!
I want to get rid of it!! I really need some help please.

Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

I replaced my hard drive and used time machine to boot from but it installedthe unrepaired disk permissions of the faulty previous drive would this cause problems on my new drive?

I replaced my hard drive on macbook pro and used time machine to boot from but it also installed the unrepaired disk permmissions of the other drive, would this cause problems to my new drive?

Can you remember what the permissions problem was that you had before? You may need to reinstall OS X from scratch and not reinstall anything from your Time Machine backups. To be on the safe side you should reinstall all third-party applications from scratch, as well. Then only restore from your backup your document/data files.

Premiere Elements cause problems with Windows Media Center while streaming to TV.

I was having the following problem:
The audio from the streaming process of a recorded TV show on my HP computer to the remote receivers, a Sony Blu-ray player and/or a Sony Streaming Player, results in the loss of audio signal at exactly 30 seconds from the beginning on either devices. The video continues on as normal.
A user on the Windows 7 forum had the following possible cause and solution. His response was as follows:
I "solved" my issue, at least partially. Turns out for me a codec installed by Adobe Premiere Elements for audio (Main Concept) was causing mfpmp.exe to fail (you should see it getting an appcrash in the event log two or three times as soon as you start playing the media remotely.) This program is used by microsoft for DRM. I went through and one by one remained the various attached (non-microsoft) modules until i found the one that caused the appcrash. I haven't fully figured out if Elements is now negatively effected, but that's for a different forum.
I tried the quick fix by un-installing Adobe Premiere Elements. The uninstall solved my problem with Windows Media Center, but I want to re-install the software but I do not want to recreate the problem with Windows Media Center.
Is there another solution for this problem?

I reinstalled Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and the above mention problem reoccured. With a little detective work I was able to determine that the file causing my problem was "mc_dec_dd_ds.ax". I am not sure what this does to Adobe Premiere Elements 10 since I removed (renamed) the offending file. A strange side affect, renaming the file did cause an increase volume. Strange.

One user: "Safari is missing important resources and should be reinstalled"

I have just installed the Safari 3 Beta and when I open the browser it say:
"Safari is missing important resources and should be reinstalled."
And its on all sites I try to visit.
I have tried to (un)install it 3 times and same problem.
And the scary: Its only on one user. (There not are administrator)
I have the (nearly) same problem when I'd installed FireFox 2.
I solved the problem by create a new user, but I really won't do that again. (Have a lot of stuff to move)

I have marked my message as "Solved" cause its now solved, but I get a new problem:
Safari can’t open the page “http://www.apple.com/startpage”. The error was: “unknown error” ((null):10022) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Help menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
I think I saw the problem in another thread so I'll searching.
Thanks for help. =D

File Vault encryption locked up. No progress for 24 hrs. If I restore from a non-encypted back-up will this cause problems?

Started file vault yesterday and no progress for 24 hrs. If I do a Command-R restore from a non-encrypted back-up will this cause problems?

You first must repartition and reformat the drive before restoring your backup.
Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
      the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
           because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should install the version of OS X that you had installed.

FF 3.6 AND 5 on same Mac, 1 profile - can I uninstall 5 without causing problems running 3.6 or with the profile?

I upgraded from 3.6.16 to 5, but don't like how 5 handles tabs (auto reloading 'problem loading' tabs when internet connection is reestablished). So I installed 3.6 in a separate folder, e.g. both versions are on this computer. I went back to using 3.6, and let it upgrade to either 3.6.18 or 19 (don't recall which & it's not open right now). I'm having problems with it using too much CPU & Memory, and not sure if that's a difference between 3.6.16 & 3.6.18/19, or if having 5 on the same computer even if closed could be causing the problem.
Can I uninstall 5 without causing problems with the 3.6 version and the single profile?

If you haven't tried this, give it a try. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you. In your version 3 firefox, disable all extensions, I had two plugins (doubletwist and joost, disable those if you have them). Then install firefox 5 by overwriting your version 3 firefox. It should work fine after that. I tried everything before, I gave that a last ditch shot. Oh yeah, before you install firefox 5, clear your cache of everything just to be sure.
Hopefully that helps.

Should I reinstall Lightroom and if so, how do I not lose my work?

I have Windows 8 and Lightroom 5.7 installed on my desktop. Every since I did the last update, Lightroom has been acting really weird. I often get a "Lightroom Not Responding" message, or it will take for ever to do something like move from library to develop module. I have been going through and deleting files and have moved folders with in Lightroom, but I would think that should not be an issue. This has been going on for about a month now after the last update. Yesterday I moved my pictures from my desktop to an external drive through lightroom and then did a catalog backup.. Later in the day after a photo shoot, I tried to import pictures, to that external drive and it just stopped in the middle of the process. I checked to see if the pictures were in the designated folder and they were. So I closed Lightroom and opened it again 6 pictures had a white box with lines through them taking up the bottom quarter of the picture. If I look at these pictures through another program, they appear fine. Should I reinstall Lightroom? If so, how do I save my work? Could my catalog (which I have backed up) be corrupt?
I have more work to be done, but I don't want to proceed if I am working with an unstable program.

Uninstalling LR does not delete the catalog which is in an entirely different place, not the Programs folder. I am not saying that removing and reinstalling LR will solve your problem, but you don't need to worry about losing your work. If you reinstall, the first time you launch LR it may create a new empty catalog. Just use File/Open Recent to open your old catalog.

Well first you have to figure out what is wrong with the machine and solve that problem first.
Your post is very vague on what occured, and there are many types of "crashes" it really depends upon what see on the screen and what the hardware does, we can't see it to tell you, so you have to tell us.
I suggest you run through these user tips and provide more information about your hardware.

I need to download dell drivers to a jumpdrive connected to my iMac. Will this cause problems with my Mac?

I need to download dell drivers to a jumpdrive connected to my iMac. Will this cause problems with my Mac?

Thanks. These drivers are for the audio, etc. for a dell laptop I purchased used. ( Needed something cheap for a training video that would only run on Windows. Tried Emedia player but picture was too fuzzy.) Dell support said I should contact Apple support for instructions on how to get the drivers onto the jumpdrive. Any tips on doing that?

Safari is missing important resources and should be reinstalled

I'm getting the following message in Safari with a "clean" install of Leopard.
Safari is missing important resources and should be reinstalled.
I can get to some pages, but not others. Any idea why I'd be getting this? Google searches report this as being seen in Safari for Windows and non-US instances, I'm definitely in the US and not using it in Windows.

I am experiencing the same problems on my old iMac. (G4 longneck). It will not open any browser window and asks for a clean install. The problem is how to install? Go to the product page on the Apple site and there is only a download for the Windows version.
Very frustrating.

Quotation and Purchasing Requisition causing problem

Dear all,
I need to seek your advise.
It is causing problems in the supply chain that quatations and purchace requisitions is causing production order creation in the workshop at the distribution center and in the SAP factories.
We would really want these two order types/demands isn't valid for the production planning as it is often result in production where orders never are converted.
Questions:
1 - Is it advisable to exclude these two demands (i.e. Quotation/PR) from production point of views? if no, why, what's the reason?
2 - Either Yes or no on question 1, would it be possible to exclude these as demands for production so that only actual orders causes production order creation from the system config?
3 - If question no.1 is "Not advisable", what is the alternative solution to solve our problem (i.e. it is often result in production where orders never are converted).
Thanks.

1) I would like to ensure that our Quotation (MM/SD)/ PR (SD derived PR example drop ship, and MM derived PR, example STO PR) to be excluded as demand during MRP run. And the best way is to use the BADI - MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA. Is that correct?
Yes the BADI is provided as the exclusion of these demands in planning is not considered as standard & hence the enhancement.
2) Does this BADI- MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA work for exclusion of Quotation as demand as well?
I have written code in this BADI to exclude Stock Transfer PR, but not for quotation so cant speak from experience on that. But I am sure one of the methods in that BADI should cover that. Discuss with your abaper & he / she will let you know which method will cover this need
3) Any other way?
To the best of what I know usage of BADI is the only option to prevent planning of demands coming from STO's. But the other way would be, to work with PO - SO kind of concept i.e. the plant which requires a part from another plant will raise a PO, this will then have to manually entered in the other plant as a SO (But note, creating sales order for plants within same company code will violate some norms in Finance, so check with your FI-CO colleagues)

WE + CE cause problem with accented characters

While creating a CFF font which contains the WE as well as the CE character set, it causes problems with most of Adobe programs (Photoshop 7, Illustrator 10, Photoshop Elements 2.0) under Mac OS X. Problem: the accented characters get replaced by Helvetica (Photoshop) or Myriad (Illustrator). Only InDesign treats it right.
I tested under Mac OS X 10.2 as well as 10.3; no difference. I tested on 'old machines', but fresh machines as well (machines which didn't have the fonts installed before); no difference. All the same problem.
Deleting the CE characters solves the problem, but yeah, I want to create a CFF font which contains both character sets.
Generating the font in FontLab or FDK doesn't make any difference.
So, what's the solution? Sounds like a mystery.
Bas

Two comments:
OpenType/CFF fonts should work to some degree on versions of Mac OS from 8.x on. "Some degree" means that pre-Mac OSX, you need ATM for them to work, and you only get the Roman char set. On Mac OSX, Unicode savvy apps will give you access to the entire charset, but at the moment only Adobe apps support any OpenType features.
About your problem with CE charset: this is a known problem, and is still a mystery. Adam Twardoch has reported the same problem and has supplied some test fonts. I have spent over a day looking over the fonts, and looking into old code, and can't find any problem in the font data. Investigating further is likely to be a several day effort, and will happen, but not soon.
