Another Fix for Spotlight! Oh Boy!!

There must be a couple hundred lines of code circulating these threads to "fix" spotlight. Other fixes include removing folders adding folders, reinstalling systems, migrating...bla, bla, bla...
Here is another fix.
Start your system as you normally do. Go out into your car, start it, then shut it off. Come back into your house, restart your system. Go back out to your car, this time after getting in touch the rear view mirror three times while saying "Oingo-Boingo_".
Now go back into your house, and spotlight should have finished indexing. If it has not then you forgot to pronounce the "_" at the end of "Oingo-Boingo" as prescribed.
Good luck.

Ok, here's the RAM type that I currently have:
KVR1333D3N9K2/2G
2GB (1GB 128M x 64-Bit x 2 pcs.) PC3-10600 CL9 240-Pin DIMM Kit
DESCRIPTION:
ValueRAM's KVR1333D3N9K2/2G is a kit of two 128M x 64-bit 1GB (1024MB) DDR3-1333 CL9 SDRAM (Synchro- nous DRAM) memory modules, based on sixteen 64M x 8-bit DDR3-1333 FBGA components per module. The SPDs are programmed to JEDEC standard latency 1333Mhz timing of 9-9-9 at 1.5V. Each 240-pin DIMM uses gold contact fingers and requires +1.5V. The electrical and mechanical specifications are as follows:

  • Is there a fix for spotlight indexing yet?

    I've searched a few times regarding this issue and it seems like there's no resolution. At least for me.
    It seems like spotlight randomnly starts indexing with an annoying frequency. So much so I feel that it is harming my computer and hamering not only it's abilities, but it's life itself.
    Fans will kick in high. Normal apps like Safart and Mail will start to run sluggish. It's killing me.
    Anyone know of a fix?
    Methods I've tried:
    -Resetting PRAM
    -Reindexing Spotlight by adding then removing the Mac Hard Drive in System Preferences.
    -Excluding certain programs such as dropbox
    None have worked.
    Is there a way to manually delete the index? Is that safe?
    I know I can just turn it off, but it's incredibly useful. If that's my only option then so be it. I just need to be sure.
    Thanks in advance folks. Hope I dont sound as frustrated as I actually am LOL. Part of me is hoping I'm missing something here.

  • Another fix for the resetting problem

    I don't know if this has been posted, but I tried a few fixes and didn't found this one, so I hope it helps. I have only tried in Windows XP, but it should be similar for other OS
    -Get your iPod in Disk mode.
    -Connect it to your PC.
    -On Windows Explorer, look for the iPod and open it.
    -Delete iPod Control. It's a hidden folder. I read that the problem is caused by videos, so deleting only them should work.
    -Open iTunes and restore iPod normally.
    -It will reset and work as usually.
    I have only tried this once, so please post your opinion to improve the guide :P

    Nice ... I'll have to bookmark this in case it happens to me again. Sounds plausible at least, I'd like to hear what happens when others do this.

  • Another Fix For The Stuttering Issue

    well guys heres my 2 cents
    i dont know how this worked or what i did that fixed it
    like maybe u need to do all this stuff idk-
    lowering the acceleration did a little damage-
    once the program loads it now returns back to norm playback for me.
    i think this is probobly related to the graphics.
    only when anything on the screen changes it stutters.
    switching itunes into mini-mode helps a little
    closing all bg apps helps a little
    i also discovered that using an emualted sound device such as replayradio makes the program not start at all
    so itunes definately isnt doing its own sound work anymore-maybe it is relying on directx?
    my next idea is that itunes stutters when the graphics are used-so lower the resolution right-
    helped a little and looks butt-ugly
    and then i thought that maybe i should change the itunes skin using multiplugin.
    whoa-big mistake-never stopped stuttering.
    then it hit me-uninstall multiplugin
    and that helped a lot.
    but i still have this stupid stuttering.
    (although it is hardly noticable anymore-it still makin me angry)
    and then i reinstalled multiplugin
    holy **** its not stuttering anymore
    my props to localhost for somehow figuring out how to fix this without even releasing a new version of his app.
    i hope someone else can use this method too
    and i dont have to use minimode and my res. is back to norm now too
    still works.
    and to apple-
    PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS TO ME AGAIN
    I ALMOST THOUGHT ABOUT GOING BACK TO WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER
    SERIOUSLY-THATS BIG.
    I HAVE ALWAYS LOOKED TO YOU GUYS AS THE BETTER COMPUTER COMPANY
    I ONLY HAVE A PC BECAUSE OF GAMES
    I DO OWN A MACBOOK AND I LOVE IT TO DEATH
    maybe i gave a whole dollar but heck-if this works for anyone please tell me

  • The website for adding "sync" to my Firefox version, does not work. Is there another fix for this problem?

    I'm trying to sync bookmarks from our laptop to our desktop computer. The laptop is running Firefox 16.0.2 and the desktop has version 3.6.8. On the desktop, under "Tools, Options" there is no selection for "Sync". The desktop is running Windows XP Media Center Edition.
    I did try to download a patch from your site, but the download website is no longer working. Is there some other patch you can offer to solve this problem? Can I upgrade the desktop to a newer Firefox version?

    The old Firefox Sync extension for older Firefox versions was discontinued by Mozilla over a year ago. Update Firefox.
    Firefox app button > Help > Check for Updates
    Or download the current release version and install it after you uninstall that old 3.6.8 version.<br />

  • ANOTHER FIX FOR UNRECOGNIZED IPODS WITH COMPUTER FREEZES

    Wonder of wonders, Apple has actually done something about this problem.
    Here's what they told us to do:
    1. Download the latest version of iTunes FROM THE WEBSITE. It's version 6.0.1.3.
    2. Back up your music just to be safe.
    3. Go to Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel, and uninstall iTunes.
    4. Restart the computer.
    5. Install the new version of iTunes.
    6. Restart again.
    7. Do a little happy dance of joy, as (hopefully) your iPod works now!
    Tips that we have found to get things working:
    -Always close iTunes before plugging in the iPod. Let iPod open iTunes on its own.
    -It will be slow. Be patient.
    Hope this helps everyone!

    P.S. Keep the iPod unplugged from the computer during this process. Plug it back in once you've verified that the new iTunes version is installed, and you've closed it.

  • Here's a fix for Safari hanging and taking down the system..

    There appears to be a serious bug in Mac OS X's lookupd which can pull the rug right out from under Mac OS X Tiger. While this bug could possibly be triggered in a number of different ways, there has been a recent rash of reports that have been tracked to some mainstream Web sites such as FoxNews.com using links to an adware site js.adsonar.com. This document describes a quick way out of the hang and a simple way to block links to js.adsonar.com from taking down Tiger again. While this doesn't fix the underlying lookupd bug itself, it prevents Mac OS X from hanging, while allowing you to continue using Web sites like FoxNews.com with full Java and JavaScript access enabled.
    The symptoms of this problem are as follows:
    • You're surfing the web and the page you are on fails to completely load.
    • No further pages will load in your browser.
    • You can switch to other applications that may already be running and save any open files.
    • You can no longer launch any additional applications, their icons will bounce in the dock for a while and then they will just stop bouncing.
    • You can no longer use any other Finder functions.
    • You can no longer use command-option-escape to force quit.
    • You can not log out, restart or shut down.
    Apparently these symptoms indicate that a low-level component of Mac OS X, lookupd, has hung. Since lookupd is used by many other parts of Mac OS X, it effectively hangs Mac OS X itself.
    If this sounds like a problem you are having, try the steps in the following link to fix it.
    Mac OS X Tiger lookupd bug & adsonar fix
    Hope it helps,

    Hi Bee,
    There is indeed "such a bug", though you may be fortunate enough to not be affected. Unfortunately MANY others are affected by this. I spent three days helping track this down (many of those 38 posts were while tracking it down in the Tiger discussions) and find a fix to this and thought that others might benefit by my efforts... By the way it's NOT a Safari bug, it happens in any browser, it's a "lookupd" bug which may be triggered by surfing to certain sites which contain links to "js.adsonar.com", which if you have JavaScript enabled can hang lookupd and take down your entire system... consider yourself lucky that it hasn't happened to you...
    Here is some background information if you don't believe me:
    Apple Discussions: "Fixes" for lookupd Problems, some via Java Updates
    Apple Discussions: System unresponsive within the last week
    MacFixit Discussions: Progressive Freeze and Network Access under Tiger
    MacFixIt Special Report
    MacFixit Follow-up: Another fix for system-wide freezes when Web browsing
    I only posted this fix to the specific threads where people were having Safari hang, incase it might help them. Forgive me for trying to help them... I thought that was the point of these boards and that was why they started threads about their issues... I'd be willing to bet that this fix will indeed fix many of their problems...
    I also posted one additional new topic here on the Safari board and one on the Tiger board for new readers looking for solutions to the same system hangs they may be getting while surfing.
    If this fix does indeed help any of you other readers, please post back here so that Bee can indeed see that I'm not just posting here to waste my time...

  • Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

    Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
    Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
    How do I get update to 6.0.2?
    Will that even help?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    It's clearly not impossible, just different than you expect. Create your playlist as you want it to appear in the Current tab (meaning don't dump every single song from your library in there, just the ones you want) and then save the playlist.

  • Barcode shows a bunch of squares when barcode is made on AI CS11. Does anyone know a fix for this? We have CS2 running on another PC and we don't get this problem.

    Barcode shows a bunch of squares when barcode is made on AI CS11. Does anyone know a fix for this? We have CS2 running on another PC and we don't get this problem.
    Background:
      Using FrameMaker 7.1 to create a PDF file where a CS11 barcode file is embedded. PDF generates fine but we get a bunch of squares when we copy and paste the barcode data into Notepad.
      We have CS 2 running on another PC and we don't get this problem. Do I need to install a plugin (if any) for CS11 to get this to work?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your feedback.  I was not able to mention earlier that in my line of work, we use Notepad to check if the barcode text is written correctly or if the corresponding text can be found if searched in the PDF... We use FREE3OF9.TTF font when entering text values for the barcode (usually in document/part number format exclusive for our company's use) in AI CS11. After saving the AI file, we attach it in a document using FrameMaker 7.1, then a PDF file is created. The output PDF will be a certification sheet for our products. They (our clients) should be able to scan the document/part number out of the barcode. I'm sorry, I could not divulge any other information so I am not sure if this clears out the issue. It used to work before but I had to get my PC formatted and since then I have been encountering this problem. I am trying to figure out if we missed to install a component or something got messed up after re-installing Adobe Illustrator CS11.

    I am running Snow Leopard and have run the Keychain repair a few times to no avail.
    Is there a fix for this or do I have to find another email program?

    This is frequent, not just occasionally.  All cancel does is stop the email from coming through until I provide the password.
    I thought about it being on the provider's end but it never happened when I was using Entourage, I just don't particularly like that program.
    I don't understand why this problem has gone on so long without Apple doing something to fix it but I will continue to look for alternatives to the Apple Mail program.  If I find a good one I will let all know through avenue.
    Thanks again to all who tried to help.

  • Seriously, Stop the DUPLICATE Madness! Is there a fix for my duplicate songs on my iPad? Like really, I don't have time to drag and delete my songs. Does Apple really have a simple solution to this bug?

    Seriously, Stop the DUPLICATE Madness! Is there a fix for my duplicate songs on my iPad? Like really, I don't have time to drag and delete my songs. Does Apple really have a simple solution for this bug? It's been 5-months, I currently do not have quick access to a sync, I thought iMatch for Christmas would solve the problem but it appears that doesn't solve anything either....help please! If I listen to my kid's lula-bye song in duplicate for another night I'm going to seriously loose it on Little Boy Peep. Like really Apple do I need to call IN and pay for this problem?

    The possible problem appears to me that songs that were previously loaded onto the iPad device from Mac were duplicated when I started to sync with iCloud. An album will contain one song from the iPad that was originally loaded on sync with Mac and another that will appear either with a little iCloud icon next to the song greyed out or a DUPLICATE song.
    I had hoped iMatch would solve the issue magically, but that does not appear to be the case.
