All animation freezes after Log Out used

I've searched and searched and cannot locate another issue similar to this...wondering if someone could offer advice. After I took the iTunes 7, Front Row, and QuickTime updates recently, my dock animation, menu animations, etc freezes after using Log Out feature and switching to a different account. When I log into another account (or log back out and into my main account), all animation is gone with the Dock, menus, etc. I have to re-boot in order to get animation back. What is weird, is that it appears to just be animation. Functionally, I can still click on items in the dock or menu bar and have them do what they should. Just no animation. Not even the blue highlight as I move down over menu items. I have repaired permissions with nothing out of the ordinary. Any other ideas for me? Thanks in advance.
PS: I do not have fast user switching turned on. I always use log out user when needed.

Just one bump here for the weekend. Anyone else encountered this or can offer suggestions? Thanks.

My Imac says "you need to restart your computer" after logging out and click on sleep. 10.6.8?

My Imac recently gives a message "you need to restart your computer" after logging out and clicking "sleep". After a few seconds, gray screeen will roll down and give that messasge. I disconnected USB cable from my printer. Today, after turning it on, the log in screen showed then after 2 seconds the gray screen rolled down again and prompted "you need to restart the computer". I've read the apple communities about kernel panics but to no success. I have a 10.6.8, 2.7 ghz, 4GB. This is the error that showed which I reported to apple mutiple times already.

What is going on with this error?

It hasn't been acting up since I:
1) Since I unplug my all in one printer with wifi (Hewlett Packard). I barely use the printer and it keeps cleaning out the jets and wasting my **** ink. Plus it'll do a loud self test @ 3:00 in the morning & by this time, I pulled my baseball bat from under the bed and ready to smash some skulls in the office room thinking its a burglar.
But seriously it stop doing it.
This is a late reply but confirmed after 7 months.
Note: I shut down instead of sleep my Imac now because I hardly use it.

Preventing the User from going back to the main page after logging out.

Hi all,
In my project I want to prevent the User from going back to the Main page, by clicking the back button of the browser, after the user has loggged out.I had invalidated the session so the user will not be able to do any operations, but he can vew the infos. I want to redirect to the login page if the user tries to go back using the back button after he has logged out.
I tried the same in this forum after loging out. Surprisingly it is the same. I can browse through all the operations i did even after logging out from here.
Is it not possible to do that in Servlets?Could somebody help?
Thanks,
Zach.

Hi,
You can use a servlet filter to do this , as it can interceptany request to your application you can decide to allow user access or not to any page/servlet.
public class Test implements Filter{
     public void destroy() {
     public void doFilter(ServletRequest arg0, ServletResponse arg1, FilterChain arg2) throws IOException,
               ServletException {
          System.out.println("filter");
          HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) arg0;
          if(!request.getRequestURI().contains("index")){ // set condition that will be checked to verify if the user is logged in
               System.out.println("redirecting ... ");
               RequestDispatcher d = arg0.getRequestDispatcher("/index.jsp");
               d.forward(arg0, arg1);
          arg2.doFilter(arg0, arg1);
     public void init(FilterConfig arg0) throws ServletException {
}in you web.xml add :
<filter>
          <filter-name>test</filter-name>
          <filter-class>test.Test</filter-class>
     </filter>
     <filter-mapping>
          <filter-name>test</filter-name>
          <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
     </filter-mapping>

Avoid browser caching after log out

i tried with the header
session.invalidate();
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-store");
response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache");
but dint help me .

javascript:window.history.forward(-1);
it also dint work .
my browser is Firefox/3.0.13
any suggestions.

hi
once i click on logout link .it reaches to my servlet and there i am setting the header and then forwarding to the login page again.
so i dint understand " you should disable caching at the top of your views"
can u please explain it.
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
        HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
        session.removeAttribute("flag");
        session.invalidate();
        response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");
        response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-store");
        response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
        response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache");
        System.out.println("i have reached here ");
        dispatcher = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/index.jsp");
        dispatcher.forward(request, response);
       }i tried putting the above header lines in jsp also ...
but the result is same it allowed me to navigate in to the application using back button .
I have googled for a solution ...but was not able to land with a solution .
Kindly suggest
Thanks in advance

How to stop the gray wheel from spinning after logging out

how to stop the gray wheel from spinning after logging out?

Frank ...
Make sure to quit all open applications before logging out.
Your proflie indicates your Mac has v10.7.1 installed.
If that is the case, updating your system software will help as far as functionaly as well as security.
Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
Then restart your Mac.

How to prevent Spaces from creating a new session after logging out

Hi,
I'm using WebCenter Spaces (11.1.1.4), and I notice that the user is redirected to the landing page after logging out which causes a new HTTP session to be created. I'd like to avoid this behavior, and I was told that this could be done by creating a custom logout page with pure HTML and redirect the user there upon logout. How do I go about doing this? I couldn't find anything related to this in the documentation.
Thanks,
Robert

What's wrong with a new session?
When you logout, the current session will be destroyed so it's just normal that he creates a new webcenter that does not contain a user credential.

After Time Machine backs up my file vault files (after logging out), when I next log into the user account it beachballs permanently during log in.

After Time Machine backs up my file vault files (after logging out), when I next log into the user account it beachballs permanently during log in. The backup was successful, as I had to restore after this issue last time. Hard resetting doesn't resolve the issue. Is there a Time Machine setting that I should be aware of?
I have 2011 13" MBP, 10.6.8 and use an external hard drive connected via USB for my Time Machine backups.
Thanks

I was able to get it to work. Thanks for your help. It's unfortunate the two applications do not work well together. This is what I did:
1) Safe boot and logged into the affected user (since the whole issue damaged the account's system settings).
2) Turned off File Vault in System Preferences. I needed to make some space on the hard drive first since apparently the total free space on the hard drive has to equal or exceed the amount of data currently in the file vault. I deleted some files and moved others to the Admin account. This whole process took awhile.
3) Finally, just restarted and logged in. The next time machine backup seems to be a significant backup, I assume because it's backing up the user account in a different way now that File Vault is turned off.
Thanks again!

Sgd client does not close after logging out of sgd on windows vista

Hi,
I have a scenario wherein I find that the sgd client in the system tray does not close even after logging out of sgd (using the browser).
We are using sgd 4.3.1
Is this a known issue.
Thanks,

Well, after searching every where, somewhere (not sure where now) I saw the suggestion to turn off bluetooth and NFC. I turned off both and it *seems* like the issue may be corrected. But what if I want touse a BT device, I guess I am stuck?
As to your questions, I my have changed to a larger mouse cursor, either that or the default cursor.
I think I may have had "mouse trails" clicked, not sure if that it the same as a mouse shadow? Neither ofthese options seem to make a difference.
I had a standard Windows provided background for use, no personal photos.
Hopefully this partial fix (turning off the other settings) helps someone else. It seems to have fixed the problem for me, at least in the last 3-4 days since switching I have not noted a return of the problem.

I wish I were writing with a fix. I, too, have a new X2 -- I like it very much. I have not seen what you describe.
Instead, I have more questions; I am intrigued. I wonder if the way in which you have the system set is having an affect on the way it is behaving.
Do you see the problem regardless of which mouse pointer you set?
There are a variety of choices -- I use an extra large white arrow most of the time; sometimes I switch to a black cursor just for grins. You can change the selectors, too. Right-Click on the Background Screen and click Personalize ...
Are you using the entirely useless, but oh-so-pretty "mouse shadow"?
I am wondering if changing the pointer has had any effect on the disappearing act.
What about the background? Are you using a personal photo? Lots of colors? Does changing the background make any difference?

No, I do not mean just the music. Copying just the media/music files or the media folder creates problems.

New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

The built-in guest user account will not do this. Simply create a new standard account and call it "Guest" or "Guest Users" or whatever you like.
Go to System Preferences > Users& Groups, click "+" to make a new account.

After logging out of mozilla firefox i cannot log back in to mozilla firefiox , why ?

after logging out of Mozilla Firefox
I can't log back in
why ?
please help me

This just happened to me too. But I've been on iTunes Match for several months now. I've had the problem several times before where ITM says something's "not available at this time; try again later," and at those times I've had to sign out of my iTunes Store account and back in for ITM to work again.
But this time, when I tried to turn on iTunes Match again, I got this error (on my screen right now):
iTunes match is matching a library from another computer. Only one library can be matched at a time. If you continue, the other iTunes Match session will be stopped and this computer's library will be matched instead. Buttons: [Cancel] [Match this computer]
Well, I surely do NOT want to "Match this computer", as I have several thousand songs in iCloud that are NOT on this computer!
What is going on???

KDE desktop does not come up after log out

I have updated KDE to the lastest version using the Arch packages. It worked wonderfully the first time, all of my widgits were intact and my desktop was just as I had left it, custom background and everything. Then, however, I logged out to make sure Fluxbox worked. Now, even after rebooting, the KDE desktop doesn't come up. It will bring up Pidgin which was running before but the taskbar and all of the widgets are gone and it has this grey background that is the same as the one in the KDM.
No errors are produced, although it does now ask for the password for a Wallet that "Plasma Desktop" wants to access. I recognise the name of the wallet (kdewallet) and input the password correctly after this, two notifications pop up with informational thing. One is about some indexing service being "rebuilt" for new features and the other is saying that it's falling back on a different sound output. None of this seems to have an impact on the limited usability I have.
Has anyone else expereinced this? Are there any log files where errors would be outputted to?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I have found the relevent messages. They are at a pastebin. http://pastebin.ca/1522805
I'm not entirely sure what is going on here.
After the top line of that post, there are a LOT of errors related to "No block with decorrelation terms" in fact the vast majority of that file are those things. All other "errors" are warnings related to my Fluxbox session which is working fine.
Lines 1, 11 and 12 seem to be the most severe errors:
[0xa2412b0] main input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called
"/usr/bin/dolphin(4560)" Error in thread 3049428752 : "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files"
"/usr/bin/dolphin(4560)" Error in thread 3049428752 : "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name"
I have no idea where to even begin fixing them. However it is Nepomuk that comes up with the rebuilding message i mentioned in my previous post.

Windows 7 Sleep issues--freezes after coming out of sleep

Running Windows 7 rig with MSI MS-7511 Mobo. Back in October, I purchased a refurb Microsoft Wireless 6000 keyboard and installed it. I THINK this is what started my problems. Since then, computer will go into sleep mode as usual, but at some point after coming out of sleep (maybe a few seconds, maybe an hour) it will totally freeze. The only way to get the system back up is to unplug it and re-start.
I have since uninstalled the keyboard, and tried to restore, but still having the problem. Pretty sure it's a USB problem, but I have tried re-installing drivers (mcp732) and even the MB BIOS. If I run the system without my wireless mouse and with no USB devices, it works fine. I have also tried switching USB devices to different ports, to no avail.
It's not just the mouse that causes the issues, it seems to be any connected USB device.
Also--and I think this is weird-I installed a PCI USB card in one of the slots and transferred my mouse to that and the same thing still happens. Wouldn't that be a totally different set of drivers than the ones that drive the main MB USB devices?
Don't know what to try next . . . want to avoid having to do a Windows re-install if possible.
Below are the errors I get when I run powercfg -ENERGY.
Any ideas? Would like to avoid giving away another two days of my life re-installing my software.

I don't think I've had a setup yet where sleepmode wasn't causing issues, I shut it off.
Sleep has only become an issue with Windows 7, where MS got so aggressive about it, and caused so many problems for so many people, that many have done as you and turned it off! Shame on you Microsoft! Instead of saving energy your customers are leaving their PCs on!
I suspect the OP's problem is with (of all things) the MS wireless mouse/kb driver(s). At first my setup wouldn't work at all, then I dl'ed the newest Intellimouse drivers/software and it worked "better", but I have never been able to get Sleep to work reliably. I finally found that Hibernate works reliably, so that is all I do now. When the PC is done working, it saves to HDD and shuts off. Resuming from this state takes longer than resuming from Sleep, but at least it Works Every Time.
