App Switching Stopped Working

I can no long navigate to an open app by clicking the icon in the dock. When I do, the app becomes selected as I can see the name of the app in the top menu bar but I no longer am taken to that full screen app, or app on one of my two desktops. I've tried using the Cmd + Tab and when I select an app from the overlay of open apps, its the same, top bar menu items for that application but not the open windows?
Thoughts???
This seems to have only started after updating to 10.10.2 although it the first few times I noticed it, a restart fixed it for awhile. Now it seems permanently broken as immediately after restart it doesn't work.

I have had this happen a number of times in Mavericks - now in Yosemite (I'm on 10.10.3).
When I either CMD Tab or select the next app from the Dock - the new app stays in the background IF the new app is not on the same desktop.
It is a Desktop switching bug. And it's here in Yosemite!
It disappears for a while after a restart for a while (sounds like Windows!). I haven't yet figured what starts the bug...

  • Print driver host for 32 bit app has stopped working

    Using Windows 7 64 bit. The printer is an HP Laser 1200. The 64 bit driver for the printer would not work, so I switched to the hp 2200 64 bit driver and the customer was able to print out of his CAD program and Excel.
    However Adobe Reader is a different matter. He got the message "print driver for the 32 bit app has stopped working" and printed out 3 blank pages. Then he tried to print again, didn't get the message, and didn't get the blank paper. In fact, he didn't get anything.
    Of course, there is no information on the HP website. Any ideas on what could be the problem?
    Thanks

  • After I upgrade lion to Mavericks, App Store stopped working, any idea how to fix this?

    After I upgraded OS lion to Mavericks, in app store I had some new updates, then after a system update, which require restart, then App Store, stopped working, any one can tell me what should I do to fix this problem?

    Guys just contact apple support team . They will guide you well and your problem will most probably be resolved. I contacted them and following their instructions my mac is working totally fine again. If at all the problem persist the re-install mavericks by following steps
    1). Switch of mac
    2). Hold option/alt key and then switch it on.
    3). Then choose your language and continue.
    4). Now Re-Install OS X .
    5). It will start downloading and installing.
    6). Leave it idle for the required amount of time.
    7). It will restart automatically and your problem will be definitely resolved.
    Note:
    a. If there is any problem of connection follow the same steps and the downloading will start where it stopped.

  • What would cause my Game Center app to stop working ?

    What would cause my Game Center app to stop working & other apps to just shut off .

    I've attached a stripped down version of the subVI which handles the UDP connection.
    In the Init and Disconnect cases, I've had to remove the startup and shutdown commands as that's protected info, but they are just fixed U8 arrays.  The subVI does not have any incoming errors when executed by itself or as part of the main VI nor does the Init case generate any errors.  Also, the UDP Open and UDP Write functions process a nonzero Connection ID.
    Let's see, what else?  The Init and Disconnect cases operates just once at the beginning and end, as you might expect.  While the Read case operating at 1x/sec during normal operation.
    Let me know if there's any more insight I can provide.

    My Kindle app suddenly stopped working on my iPhone 4s. All my software is up to date and I have restarted the phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the app and it still opens and shuts down instantly. Any ideas?

    We need clarification here.
    Please don't just state version numbers, also state which software.  iTunes 10.7 requires OSX 10.6.8 or higher.  Leopard is OSX 10.5.8.  You have two alternatives right now.  One is to stay with Leopard for a while (ultimately you should upgrade) and install iTunes 10.6.3 which is the last version to work with Leopard.  This should work with iOS6 on an iPhone4.  The other is to call Apple and order OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and upgrade the computer to 10.6.8 which will allow you to run iTunes 10.7.  The caveat is we know nothing about which computer you run and if it even can run any system higher than Leopard.
    Here is iTunes 10.6.3
    iTunes 10.6.3 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1575
    If you want to try upgrading:
    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About this Mac" and "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).  If it says something about Intel or Core Duo or Core 2 Duo in the processor you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (assuming you have sufficient RAM/"memory").  If it says PPC or PowerMac, you cannot.
    Kappy 08/2012 post on upgrading to Snow Leopard, then Lion or Mountain Lion -  https://discussions.apple.com/message/19401628 - including how to get Snow Leopard and Lion since Apple removed them from the online store. 
    It would help when posting issues here if you would state exact error messages you see.  "It's still not working!" while a description of the situation does not speed us to a diagnosis of the underlying issue.

  • Swing app keyboard stops working, mystery ESCAPE keystrokes appear in EDT

    Java 6 Swing app. In our development environment, works great. In QA, they use it for a bit, type in a text field, click out to a Windows XP/7 app, click back in the text field, and the keyboard stops accepting keystrokes. The mouse continues to work, and the Swing app continues to paint to the screen.
    I hooked up a KeyEventDispatcher to listen to what is going on. I'll post a more verbose log at the end of this post, but the short version is this. When the keyboard hangs, the log shows that 'escape' keys are being sent, though we do not do any keystroke injection in our app, ESCAPE or otherwise. Nothing on the Swing app can be determined visually to have focus.
    Just before the app starts hanging, it has a side effect of not being able to be brought into the foreground by clicking on it, if, for example, one was working with Excel or Notepad, then try to click on the JFrame title of the app, or anywhere else on the app frame/internals. Once this condition happens, moving away to another Windows app, then going back to the Swing app, causes the keyboard to stop working and the KeyEventDispatcher to see 'escape' keystrokes being sent out.
    Connecting remotely to the app via JVisualVM/JConsole does not show any of the threads hanging/blocked.
    Sometimes you can work for hours before seeing this problem, and other times, you can start the app up and it happens right away. Once it happens, sometimes you can't recover, and sometimes you can click on a button on a navigator panel on the left side that displays an info panel on the right side, and you can start typing again in text fields.
    Once this problem happens, you can start (or have already running) a completely different Swing app (ex.: StackTrace), and the keyboard will stop working for that app too, even though its running in its own separate VM.
    This problem (ALMOST!) always happen when typing in a Swing text field (JTextField, JTextArea, etc.), clicking on and then typing in a Windows text area (Excel cell, Notepad), then clicking back into the Swing app's text field. A few times, we've gotten this to happen by typing in a text field, tabbing to a button, pressing a button, then tabbing/clicking back into the text field, all without leaving the Swing app. But this latter scenario is rare, usually going to/from Swing/Windows XP/7 apps cause the problem to occur more readily.
    The QA computers normally use Citrix to connect and run the app, but this also happens if we run the app completely locally. But again, this only happens to some computers, all of the ones in the QA department; the development computers (the app has not been released into production yet) does not see this problem.
    I had thought that our problem was this problem (Wrong characters in KeyEvents generated from input of barcode scanner but purposely slowing down the acceptance of KEY_PRESSED and KEY_RELEASED events before allowing them to go on to the Swing app (via a KeyDispatcher) did not solve the problem.
    Also, we had thought it might be a Citrix problem and how it (or does it?) hook into the Windows keyboard. The fact that once one Swing app gets into this keyboard doesn't work and escape keys are being sent out by the EDT can affect another Swing app makes me wonder. We're not seeing any VM exceptions either like this (EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION - JRE 6.0_23 - Citrix, windows 2003

    The above log info repeats multiple times, KEY_PRESSED and KEY_RELEASE, over and over again, for 'escape' keys.

    <discaimer>Don't put too much hope in my reply</disclaimer>
    The only real difference is QA has the Citrix client installed on them, and development does not. You don't need to run our Swing app through a Citrix client though to cause the bug/freezing, just running it on a PC with the Citrix client seems to be enough (in theory). We've been working down a checklist of possible problems/solutions, and we've gotten to the "Install Citrix to the dev PC" item now, so I'll post back if that makes a difference or not in reproducing the problem.
    I've also had QA people actually come over to a dev PC, without the Citrix client, and try to reproduce the problem, and they have not been able to. There's 'something' about their environment vs. ours, but not sure how that would manifest itself as a AWT/Swing keyboard event of mysterious escape keystrokes followed by the locking up on the keyboard, but not the whole Swing app. My personal guess is the Citirix client installing funky Windows-level keyboard driver(s), but I may be totally off on that. /shrugI read your initial post twice and couldn't find out whether you reproduce that on several different machines, so one "environmental" difference comes to mind: have you tried using another keyboard on the defective QA configuration?
    Of course that doesn't explain in itself how the problem would manifest only after switching back and forth to a native Windows app, but then, with the hint that Citrix may make a difference, maybe one driver filters out repeated "Esc" keystrokes, while another doesn't, and that manifests only after a few app switches, and the system event queue, or whatever it's called in Windows, redirects the events to the target app/window?
    Other than that, I wish you had investigated Jeanette's pacemaker hypothesis more... ;)
    Otherwise, yeah. I have a hook in to see all AWTEvent's, but I still need to see/find what's posting the mysterious escape keys to the event queue.I assume it's what you mean, but I'll try to make that clear: you have to investigate, at the OS level, what is posting escape key events to the OS queue.
    I am not a Windows developper, but I seem to understand that the following programs claims to capture keystrokes on the whole screen (not limited to a single window), with some limitations: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/winsdk/WIN_RECORDER.aspx
    More generally, you should search for a Windows way to peek at the Windows' (keyboard?) event queue.
    I'm not sure this could identify which DLL (if it's not originated by the material, see the defective keyboard hypothesis) is posting the events, but that's worth a try (Java for example, would enables to stuff a custom event queue that would trace info about a Java-poster).
    Even if you can't identify the posting DLL, running the "key captuyre" on both the Windows host that has the Citrix window, and the Windows host that you are accessing via Citrix, may give you hints as to where the heck the key strokes originate...
    Good luck, and keep us informed,
    J.

  • Help, My web app has stopped working.

    Hey guys, I got my N95 thru orange and i've had it for nearly two weeks now. The phone is great and until now I've had no trouble.
    I've been using the inbuilt web app to access Orange world (Oranges mobile site, football, tv, etc etc) and all of a sudden it's stopped working.
    I have contacted Orange and they have sent me a configuration message with the wap settings and they have also talked me through setting them up manually but it still hasn't worked. I also didn't think it was the settings that were at fault in the first place but they still talk you through it all anyway.
    What happens is when I click onto the web app, the menu disappears as though the phone is about to launch into the web app itself and then straight away it returns to the phone menu. It doesn't even attempt to connect to any service at all. Just straight back to the menu.
    I think maybe the app itself might be missing.
    Can anyone help me out
    Thanks
    David

    if u have been using it ok up til now then it cant be settings problems, have u tried switching off the handset and removing the battery for a while if not then its a trip to a nokia service centre or u can set the handset back to factory settings yourself on the standby screen type *#7370# enter the lock code (default 12345) then fone will re start back to factory settings, be warned, back everything up if u can because u will loose everything!
