Anyone else have the black box of death with codes on your screen? (DVR)
I've manually reset and still get this black box with codes on my TV sceen. It blocks out 90% of the screen. I've also tried the online reset and they "cannot process" my request at this time! The code is <00815BAC> [DCE2]. It's definitely DVR-related - my non-DVR TVs work fine.
Anyone have any ideas what the problem is? (thanks)

Hello,
First, make sure that you have the latest Firmware updates installed. Refer to the article at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
This will list all the available firmware updates for each machine.
If you already have the latest firmware update installed, and are still having this problem, then I would suspect bad memory first.
Try removing any expanded memory you have installed (leaving the factory memory installed) and see what happens.
There were a lot of marginal memory modules sold before OS X was released.
Many of these modules would work perfectly fine, and then fail completely once you installed (or tried to install) OS X 10.0
This was a huge issue back then. Many people discovered that their memory modules were just slightly out of spec, and needed to be replaced with proper modules that were produced exactly to spec.
Perhaps this is what is going on with your system.
Since you have been using 9.2 on that machine, your expanded memory (if you have any) may be slightly out of spec, but was not noticed by OS 9.2.
Hope this helps.

after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?
I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?

Anyone else have the issue where, after the 8,3 upgrade, you cannot access more than 1 exchange account on your iPhone? This is annoying to me as I need to access 4 daily and cannot due to this error.
The first one, my private home email, works fine. With the other 3, I get the message "Cannot get mail: The connection to the server failed"
All were working fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I did try the old trick of making one minor change on the account and resaving, but that did not change anything. I even deleted my work account and re-entered it from scratch, but again, sadly, no luck. For the time being, I am successfully getting the email via IMAP, but this ***** compared to exchange. Anyone have any idea what is happening or if a fix is in the works?Well, the one set up on exchange 2k3 is now working fine, although no changes were made on either the iPhone or the exchange side, so that's fun, but it still is throwing errors when connecting to the other 2 exchange accounts. The common elements are that both non-functioning exchange accounts are google apps for business accounts. So is one of the ones that's working, by the way. The settings on both accounts are the same as the one that's working, and both worked fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I have no issue accessing both of these accounts on my ipad which is currently on 8.2.x. If it's not the iphone OS at fault, I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

I updated Itunes today to the latest version. Windows 7 64bit. None of my drivers work and get an error when itunes starts, about registry setting for reading and writing dvds and cds missing. Anyone else have the same issue. I downloaded itunes again, reinstalled still have same issue.
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

3 year old iMac 24 running OS 10.7.4. After it has been on for a day or so, it stops going to sleep and becomes very slow. This only happens when Safari is running. Quitting Safari solves the problem. Has anyone else have the same problem? Does not happen on MacBookpro only on iMac.
Hello Albert, see how many of these you can answer...
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts? -
Since updating my Mac to 10.8.4 any external hard disk doesn't show on Finder sidebar (but shows on desktop). Anyone else have the same problem?
It's annoying because now I can't use Finder sidebar for drag and drop to thumb drive etc.
Thanks for your thoughts and help!Hi Barney-15E,
Thanks for your reply and suggestions!
It is set to show on the sidebar in Finder prefs and I tried toggling the setting multiple times but it didn't fix anything.
I went into Preferences (I'm Administrator) but the strange thing is I don't see com.apple.sidebarlists.plist anywhere in the folder. Not sure what that means.. -
does anyone else have the same problem??
I did! Just make sure when you're updating, to be connected to power!

Anyone else have the wifi on their 4S just stop working?
Thanks, yes, I have a problem. My Wifi shut down. Phone wont let me turn it back on, even thought I never executed a manuel effort to turn it off. Here's a screen shot. Notice no other text under the toggle advising me to about being near a network? It's like the phone recognizes the "antenna" has stopped working. I did perform a reset and several power off-on's. Can't get it to work. Thanks for feedback!

Haunted by the Black Box of Death
Ok, I'm having the most confusing annoying issue trying to install Tiger on one of the machines @ work. The machine is a mid-generations gigabit model G4 400 single processor with plenty of ram, and current firmware. Yet for some reason, as soon as i restart onto the OSX disc to install, it gets as far as the "choose a language" screen (If that far at all) and then drops the gray curtain with the black box in the middle w/ the power button silho. and the "You need to restart your mac..." message in 4 languages.
I've installed Tiger on dumber machines in this office, and none of them were giving me this much grief. This machine doesnt seem to want to get past OS 9.2, and unfortunately I do have to leave that inplace, as we still use 2 or 3 classic apps.
If anyone can tell me how to get past this screen, or even just what may be wrong Id love to hear it.
Thanks,

HAs anyone else had the same problem, after doing an update nothing will come up for tribez just a blank screen. My late nights are not the same now!!!
Your Performance preferences screen capture reveals you have a single hard drive with little available space to accommodate both the Photoshop scratch file and the swap files of the OS.
It's obvious that Bridge finds itself at times with insufficient space to build its cache.
However, it's unclear why that should affect only DNG files and not other type of image files. Puzzling, unless the DNG files are the only large image files you have.
Parts of the following may illustrate what happens when the scratch file is on your boot drive:
The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch. -
Here's what happens: Go into Settings -> Wi-Fi, and connect to the home network. The connection is made successfully. If you open Safari, yes, you can surf the web via Wi-Fi, not cellular network. After a few seconds, Wi-Fi drops out. But it not only drops out for the phone, all devices connected to the network are kicked off. Then all devices take a few minutes to connect again, like the router resets the connection or something. I don't have anything else in the house that does this when connected to the network -- No, our Android phones don't do this; No, the XBox doesn't do this; No, our old version 1 iPad doesn't do this; No, the various desktop computers running various flavors of Windows don't do this. But whenever the we attempt to connect the iPhone to the house network, the network drops for all devices connected to the network. Anyone else have this issue? I'm thinking about returning this phone and going with Android.
This is known issue with iOS 7. The issue is with iOS 7, wallpaper required filling the screen, so if you try to scale down, it won't work. There are apps in the App Store which have popped up to resize wallpaper for iOS 7.
This link offers some good advice and app options. http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-stop-automatic-wallpaper-resize-and-zoom-in-ios -7/ -
Most of the time my charger does not work . IPAD indicates not charging when recgarger plugged in. Does antone else have the problem?
If you continue to have the issue with a different charger and if you are having any issues syncing with your computer then you may want to take it into an apple store and have them look at it.
The main reason I say this, I had the 30 pin dock die on my iPad, and the symptoms were that it would not charge when plugged into the wall - and with multiple chargers - and it would not sync.
So keep an eye on it, especially if you are close to the end of your warranty. -
HELP!! Does anyone else have their entire keyboard stop working with photoshop?
This varies for me but most of the time whenever I use Photoshop CC and CS6 my ENTIRE keyboard stops working. Not just the shortcuts but even in other apps too. The only keys that remain functional are the fn, control, option, shift, delete, all of the F keys, and command keys. I am not sure if this is due to me not having enough ram (I have 4 GB). Does anyone else have this problem and if so what did you do to fix it?
I also have this issue and it's driving me bonkers.
Latest Photoshop CC, up-to-date.
Win 8.1 Pro
Das Keyboard Pro on USB3 port.
Issue only with Photoshop - no other applications.
I have tried a brand new machine and a brand new keyboard (replaced my main workstation recently), so I know for sure it's not an issue with any of my hardware. I also know for sure that it's not an issue belonging only to one OS version, as I had the same issue with win7pro and win8.1pro.
For me the issue is that ALL keyboard keys stop responding completely in Photoshop until I hit the Windows key or otherwise maximise/bring to focus any other application, such as desktop or Outlook etc. Then I immediately bring Photoshop CC back into focus and the keyboard works again. Then after a few moments/clicks/commands the keyboard dies again.
The issue is 100% local to Photoshop CC, is not related in any way to Wacom drivers (I don't have any installed and don't use a tablet), is not related only to one OS and is not hardware related, as far as I can tell. Once again, I've had these issues on-and-off across 2 different machines with different keyboards.
I'm wondering if it's related to Teamviewer, since TV creates focus issues with certain other applications/games etc. I will try with TV closed and see if the problem goes away.
All CC apps are up-to-date. -
Anyone else getting the BLACK screen of death after Kitkat 4.4 update?
Ever since the update, my phone is wacked, like everyone elses. I got my Samsung Galaxy S4 a month ago. Beautiful, loved it. Update happens: I want to pitch this thing as far as I can throw it.
The phone rings. I go to answer it but all I have is a BLACK SCREEN which is LOCKED. I have the lock on the screen, but if the screen is black, you can't see it - and you can't answer the phone! One day, I got a message, and could not get to that. Why? the BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH.
Someone told me to turn off Samsung Watch On and that has helped with some of the issues. But I still get the screen occasionally, and my battery life is GONE.
How do we get rid of this update? Should I just call Verizon and get a new phone with the OLD software? I hate this. I feel like I was the victim of bait and switch.ltg123 - did you resolve the problem yet? If so, let me know how.
My (hopefully temporary) solution was to turn off my "Lock Screen" ... to do this, go to Settings, My Device, Lock Screen ... and select None.
The only issue is that you would no longer have any security for your phone and would be vulnerable to someone stealing your phone and having full access to whatever is on your phone that does not require a separate id and password. Dangerous, yes ... but, for me right now, it's better than not having any access to my own phone!
The Android update simply sucks ... some heads should roll for allowing such a crappy update to get (no pun intended) rolled out.
