Application, once built, shows "Not Responding" in the toolbar, and it doesn't go away

If you have an application that is running with some kind of timeout, (My application will send a message, and wait for a user definable period of time for a reply). If this tine is over 5 seconds, and the user clicks on the application, the app sets its status to "(Not Responding)". This is mirrored on the toolbar.
Once the application begins responding again, the title bar of the app changes back to an active state, although the representation of the app on the tool bar stays in a "(Not Responding)" state.
I have attempted to stop the user click having an effect by setting the cursor to busy and setting the "Click Disable" to TRUE, but this does not help.
Any ideas how to get round this one? Or is it a bug?
Cheers, Alec

I must not be explaing myself propperly.
Every application that is open has an instance in the task bar
As you can see here, I am running outlook, labview, firefox and MSN, but don't tell my boss
Somtimes, when windows things an application has crashed it will place the phrase "(Not Responding)" next to it's name in the task bar. It will also place the word "(Not Responding)" In the title bar for the application.
I have written a program that calls a .dll. The function of this .dll is to read incomming data up the RS-232 socket of my PC. I can set a timeout on this, lets say I set it to 1 minute.
The application is running, I call the .dll to read incoming data, then I don't produce any incoming data. The application will wait, up to 60 seconds for some data, but in the mean time, Windows thinks the LabVIEW executable file has crashed, so places the word "(Not responding)" in the taskbar AND in the title bar. At this point I send my data up the 232, the data is received and displayed by the application. At this point Windows forgives LabVIEW and the "(Not Responding)" status is revolked. This phrase is then removed from the title bar, but IS NOT removed from the task bar.
Does anyone know if we have control over this, or should I report it as a bug to National Instruments?
Many thanks guys,
Cheers, Alec

When I try to open Firefox, it says it is running in the Task manager, but will not open until the memory has reached about 100,000k. Also, it keeps NOT responding all the time, and freezes up.

I have done everything on the support page. I am running Windows Vista, and I am running Firefox 4.01. I have even tried running in safe mode. I have updated my plugins, and then disabled plugins and extensions.

The browser does not respond to the same.
Even the arrow keys take some time to elicit a response.

Firefox hangs, shows Not Responding, on start up and at random times

Firefox is hanging on start up and at random times during use. When I click the desktop icon it takes about 20-30 seconds and then opens the usual Firefox start page. However as soon as I move the mouse or try and use anything on the screen it hangs. The Firefox logo top left in the blue bar turns into a white box. After about 2 minutes it reverts to the Firefox logo and all starts working normally.
However every now and then the same thing happens, white box, and the Not Responding words in the top blue bar. Sometimes the whole webpage goes blank white, with only the very top blue bar and side scroll bars showing.
It reverts to normal after a minute or so.
This has happened with the last few versions so it is not due to the last update.
I've tried most things (plugins, stop hardware acceleration, etc) except the one below - maybe someone has an answer to why I can't do the one below?
I've read that you can try and correct by right clicking the decktop icon, choosing Properties, and then Select Compatibility and my Windows Program which is Windows XP SP3. However when I try this the latest Windows showing is 2000. - Maybe this is my problem - how do I get the comnpatibility to Windows XP S3?
Thanks

Hi! i recently got a macbook pro 15" retina display, and i tried to play assassin's creed 2 and other games on it, but the thing is, the keyboard keys will not respond except the trackpad, and the keyboard keys work fine outside of gaming.

Hi! so like i said in the title, i tried to play any game like assassin's creed and minecraft, but the keyboard wont respond but the trackpad does, also i tried restarting reinstalling checking if mouse key is on or off and all that, and it still wont fix this problem. Outside of gaming though, the keyboard works with no problem. Please help me!

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

It stops working for sometime and shows not responding at the top of browser it happens frequently ?

i have even formated my PC for that issue

This seems to be a problem that has started since Firefox 7. See the instructions in this article for a possible solution: [[Firefox never finishes loading certain websites#w_lower-the-max-number-of-http-connections|Firefox never finishes loading certain websites]]

Ipod turns on itself although the app is not active in the toolbar and the screen locked...

Hey everybody,
I have posted this before, and at first I thought that completely closing the ipo-app did the job, but unfortunately it still keeps happenig, even with the ipod app off, so i'll try once more to find out, please read the following: has everybody noticed this using your iphone: phone is in stand-by, you hit the button to get to the unlock screen and at the top of the display the ipod play bar is displayed as if you iphone is playing a tune and when you wait a couple of seconds it suddenly dissapears without you unlocking your phone or doing anything else? does anybody know what this could be/mean?
thanks in advance

It means you are double pressing your home button when you are trying to wake your phone and unlock it. The iphone 4's are notorious for doing that. Nothing wrong just a sensitive home button.

Adobe pdf printer save dialog box opens in the background - progress bar shows Not Responding

I have two users who have Acrobat X Pro version 10.1.4 that are experiencing the same things. First, one person just changed laptops and the new one has a fresh Windows 7 Enterprise X64 image and new installation of Adobe Acrobat X Pro. When he used the pdf printer for the first time(after opening the program and accepting the license agreement) he was in MS Excel '07 and chose file>print>Adobe PDF and then the progress bar came up and then showed not responding. After he did this a couple of times with me standing there I noticed that the save dialog box was opening in the background because I could see the icon blinking on the taskbar. He said that his old computer never did this and that it would always open up and ask where to save the file and never show 'not responding' on the progress bar. The other person having the same issue is running the same version but she has had the program installed on her machine for a few months and an older version on before that.
Is there a way to make the dialog box show as soon as you print to the Adobe PDF printer? What is causing this? Is there another way to create a pdf from MS Office like the add-on?

Sounds like you need to wipe the entire device OS clean and load the operating system fresh.
You will need to use BBSAK or JL_Cmder to wipe the device and subsequently load the OS to the device. Follow the instructions here:

My ipod touch's screen is changing colors and will not respond to the buttons

my sisters ipod touch is a 4th gen and the screen recently started changing colors, it does not respond to the buttons and will not turn off. should i wait for the battery to die then charge it. she said it started happening when she was charging it. could it be the charging cable? i do not know what OS it has.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Upon switching on my ipad, I'm getting the caption "Unable to Download Application "*Solitaire" could not be downloaded at this time." Further, I'm getting 2 options - Done & Retry, both of which are not responding. The ipad is in the hanged situation for all practical purposes. How do I get out of this situation?

Try a reset:
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
2. For about 10 seconds
3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
4. Ignore the red slider

I'm getting a similar error over here. Sporadically some sites won't load specifically in Safari; they open just fine in Opera, Firefox and Camino though. This is really annoying.
It's pretty clear it's nothing network related…

Error message multiple times a day: application net_rim_bb_vvm(180 is not responding; process terminated

I have a Style 9670 running OS6 on the Sprint network.
I upgraded to this phone about a month ago. approximately 2 weeks ago this error:
application net_rim_bb_vvm(180 is not responding; process terminated.
at first it was every 2-3 days. its now happening 2-3 times a day. Sometimes I can hit the ok button highlight and can continue using my phone, but as of lately more often than not, I must pull the battery as the phone locks up.
BB support was unable to help. Sprint my carrier has been unable to help and wants me to drive another 30 miles to a "tech store". Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advanve.
FEAR is an ILLUSION

Hello ScottZski and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
This message is indicating an error with your device software. An application is not able to function properly and it's causing your device to error out.
That being said, it's fixable
I am going to assume you have the Desktop Software installed, seeing as you said you did an update recently. Back up your device data before we begin.
After your data is backed up, follow the steps in KB11320 to reinstall your software. Once the reload is completed, do a test to ensure the error is fixed by doing a reboot of your BlackBerry by removing and reinserting the battery.
When you go to restore your device data, it is recommended to do an essential data restore (such as your Contacts, BBM, Email, SMS). To do this advanced restore, follow the steps in KB23680.
You will need to also need to resend your email service books to resume email delivery. KB15402 will show you how to resend your service books.
Let me know how you make out.

AT-MIO-16XE-50 device is not responding to the selected base address

I'm trying to install my AT-MIO-16XE-50 DAQ board onto my Windows NT desktop computer, but I'm having trouble.
Here's what I've done: I've installed LabView 5.1 and the NIDAQ 7.0 software onto my computer first. Then I've physically installed the DAQ board into my computer. After starting the computer, the plug-and-play system seems to recognize the new hardware and install drivers for it. It then says I need to reboot the computer, so I reboot the computer.
When I then look at my device manager, it lists AT-MIO-16XE-50 twice. Under the properties/resources tab, one of them lists "input/output range", "interrupt request", "direct memory access", and "direct memory access" (i.e., 2 "direct memory access"s). The second one only lists "direct memory access" once and nothing else under the properties/resources tab. Also, the first one says that it is working properly while the second one says that it is not working properly (Code 10). I've played around with chaging the "direct
memory access" numbers and after rebooting the computer have gotten both AT-MIO-16XE-50's in the device manager to say that they're working properly. So, now the DAQ board appears to be installed correctly, because the device manager reports no problems with it. However, there are still 2 of them. My first question is this: should there be only 1 entry in the device manager list, or are there supposed to be the 2 that I see? The entries do appear to be different from each other, but they're for the same device, so that's a little confusing.
When I open my Measurement and Automation explorer, only one AT-MIO-16XE-50 device is listed (so this looks good), and under "properties" all 3 "direct memory access" numbers are listed. So, this all seems good. But, when I click on "test resources" or "test panel", I get an error message saying that "the device is not responding to the selected base address". Considering that this device was plug-and-play, and I did not set the base address manually, I don't understand why I'm getting this error message.
What I've tried is to change the "input/output range" number by using the device manager. I've tried a few different settings (rebooting the computer after each change) and none of the different "input/output range" settings seem to work.
I'd appreciate it if you could give me any help on figuring out how to resolve this "not responding to base address" problem. The info on your web site
appears to suggest flipping dip-switches on the DAQ card, but my card does not have any dip switches because it is plug-and-play. So, right now I'm
clueless! Thanks for reading this, and I hope that you have more insight than I do.

Smaria,
The AT-MIO-16XE-50 shows up twice in the Device Manager because it reserves three DMA channels, and the ISA bus only allows two DMA channels per ISA slot. You mentioned that you were able to get both devices working properly in the Device Manager. Below is a link to a KnowledgeBase that describes the proper procedure to successfully accomplish this. You should verify that this is the procedure you followed:

App Error 602 & "Uncaught exception: Application net_rim_bb_messaging_app(144) is not responding; process terminated"

Hi,
I have spent a whole and very frustrating day trying to solve the following problem and in exasperation I resort to a posting here. Note no changes had been made to the phone prior to the start of the problem.
My Blackberry 9800 Torch freezes on power-up. It can only be ‘unfrozen’ by taking out the battery or, if left alone, after many minutes it comes up with the white screen, ‘App Error 602' and ‘Reset’ which is highlighted. Resetting has the same effect as taking out the battery. After each restart, it goes through the usual security and time checks and then freezes again. However, on rare occasions I got the message “Uncaught exception: Application net_rim_bb_messaging_app(144) is not responding; process terminated”.
Soon after the restart, after the Security Software Verification and on confirming the time/date, there is a very small window of opportunity (literally a couple of seconds) to access the phone. After much trial and error, I discovered that (in Manage Connections) by disabling the Mobile Network and WiFi - effectively putting it into ‘aeroplane mode’ - the device would work, without any problem and indefinitely. Except, of course, I couldn’t access the phone network nor the internet, which isn’t helpful(!).
I have taken this opportunity to do a full back-up on to my PC, through BlackBerry Desktop Software (though I’m not sure this backs up downloaded Apps??). Separately, I've also copied all the subdirectories from the phone’s memory and media card on to the PC, retaining their correct structures (but presumably also copying the corruption causing the problem?).
Any ideas???
- thanks in advance!

The method you are attempting is the automatic method...sometimes it just doesn't work, and you must take control. The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
