Applications folder in stack doesn't work properly

Hi, I've installed the new Leopard 10.5 on both my macBook Pro and my new Imac 20".
Once I put my applications folder as stack on the dock, every time I click on it to see the applications, it works badly, from the point of view of the graphic, it's not fluid on mac Machines, and on both there are 2 Gb of Ram.
Has someone else the same problem?
I also can not repair the permissions of the disk through the utility (I use Main Menu to repair the permissione) and I have serious problems with the Wi fi Internet connection. Both get's disconnetted randomly and with no warnings.
HELP.

I only have a Mac mini, and regarding the issues with stacks and Applications folder, I don't seem to have any problems and I have 2GB of RAM too. I have 35 Applications that appear in my stack, two of those items being folders, 1 Applescript and the 2nd being the utilities folder and I don't seem to have any animation / graphic problems whatsoever seem fluid enough to me.
I even did an experiment for you and I created a load of empty folders, 80 to be exact and put them in the applications folder to see whether it could have any baring on the animation or load times of the stack and it doesn't seem to effect it at all. The more things you have in there, the smaller the icons get (which is cool). I'm sorry I can't really help much, just giving feedback mainly.
It might be a RAM problem though, what type of RAM do you have in both computers, maybe they're at fault? Well having said, I only have cheap third party Samsung RAM and I still don't seem to have problems.

I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this?

I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this? I even tried deleting iMovie, bought a new copy and installed it, but the folder "iPhoto Videos" is still there and I can't get new clips loaded to iMovie, especially where I want them. Please help.

The iPhoto Videos do occasionally have problems. I've seen a lot of people write messages to this Discussion group describing similar problems. The only thing that seems to get around this problem is to pull the video clips out of iPhoto then import them directly into iMovie. Once the troubles with iPhoto Videos starts, I haven't yet seen anyone write back with something that they did to fix it.
The most difficult part of doing this is the movies in iPhoto might be a little difficult to track down. But you can create a smart alum that does that for you. Go to iPhoto > File Menu > New Smart Album:
Set the first pulldown menu to keyword, second to contains, then in the last box type Movie with a capital 'M'. Then click OK. This smart album more or less does as search of the whole iPhoto Library and only displays items that match your search tearm of "Movie" exactly. In that smart album then you can find the original Movies you want to move out of iPhoto and into iMovie, <CTRL> click on the Movie clip, then choose Reveal in Finder. That will jump you out of iPhoto temporarily and into the iPhoto Library folder. From there you can move that movie file to the desktop. Move all the clips you want, once they're all collected up go to iMovie and go to the File Menu > Import Files. Then point it to the desktop where you moved your video clips.
This will put all those videos into an Event folder in iMovie and bypass iPhoto Videos altogether.

Dreamweaver 8 doesn t work properly on imac intel "17"

Hello guys need some help, I m new to mac and I´ve installed dreamweaver 8 but it doesn t work properly. Instead of the insert toolbar I get boxes with a '?' plus in some occasion when I want to save a work instead of the usual " save or ok or discard" the button appears as " undefined". Can anyone help please?
Here is a picture of the error I get. Regards

It would appear to me when you installed Dreamweaver,
some image files got misplaced or lost by mistake.
Did you ever go and search for images and start
erasing images you didn't know what they came from?
If you did, then those may be the image. Those
images are little modular pieces that Dreamweaver
uses to display information on the screen.
I would install Dreamweaver from scratch and make
sure it is in the Applications folder.
Hi, did everything posible, I even downloaded a evaluation version, just in case but it seems it s only me who has this problem, I problaby need to download somekind of firmware or java but don t know which. Cheers

My palm m105's touch screen doesn't work properly after a sync.

I dug out my old m105, put new batteries in and start it. On first launch it auto runs the alignment tool, and after touching all the points it goes to the main screen and works fine. No problem till here.
Now, I plug it into my old computer which still has the palm software with my apps, and I run the sync operation (from the palm device sync manager, cause I lost my cradle and I'm connected via the serial cable), and it syncs fine BUT, here comes the problem, when it finishes the sync (successfully) the touch screen is all misaligned. I can't go back to the home screen or do anything useful.

Hey, There are afew things you can try.
- Simply turn your phone off and back on again
- Hold down your home button and your lock button and let goes as soon as the screen goes black (Phone will power down) - Then turn on your phone and hey presto!
- Back up your iPhone to your PC, then restore it..
this ones last cause I think you may have tried it already..
- Close all open applications

I've tried W8 and the same problem but it works truely with w7.
what should i do for making it works truely with W8.1.
Sorry length of e-mail.

vn7571g_user,
Sorry to hear that you are not having the best possible experience with your new notebook. I'd like to try and address a few of your concerns that you have listed and see if there are some things we can resolve for you.
1. Wifi doesn't work properly:
I see that you have posted in a couple other threads (1st, 2nd) regarding wireless issues with this notebook. We can gladly check this unit at the repair depot for you if you are not keen on changing the card out, PM me the following information and I will see what I can do for you:
SNID or serial number
Contact name
Contact number
Email address
Shipping address
Purchase date
2. Wifi doesn't work after switching on and off 'Airplane mode'
If you have already tried to install/update the drivers, it could be a Windows issue. You can attempt a refresh to see if that helps resolve it.
3. Trackpad response is terrible
This notebook uses a precision touchpad possibly, but since it uses Synaptics drivers you have a couple options:
You can change the way that the touchpad works.
It says Windows 7, but you can see if you have this option in the touchpad settings and see if it helps you out.
4. Speakers jar
Do you have the same issue without the Dolby turned on?
5. Num-Lock is 'Off' after every sleep session
Here is a Microsoft article that discusses this feature. You can follow the steps that they list if you would like.
6. Keyboard-backlight setting is 'On' after every sleep session
The backlit keyboard is working as designed. Here is an article with some FAQ about the backlit keyboard to help customers understand its functionality a bit more.
A couple final thoughts:
Did the issue(s) you are having occur before or after Windows updates, sometime a bad installation of an update can cause all sorts of things to happen.
Worst case, you can always try to restore to factory defaults and test all these things before applying updates or installing any applications or programs.

Search in Outlook 2010 with Exchange Server 2010 doesn't work properly

Hi all,
I have a problem with a clients Exchange 2010. Search function in Outlook 2010 doesn't work properly, the employee can't search mails and contact - he doesn't get any result :-(

Hi,
What’s Exchange Version? Sometimes, after Installing Exchange 2010 SP 1, Searching via OWA or Outlook Online Mode may Fail. If so, please try the following solution:
Download the script
Repair-ExchangeSearchSymlinks.ps1 from the Script Center.
Copy the Repair-ExchangeSearchSymlinks.ps1 script to the Scripts directory on the Mailbox server (default installation is C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Scripts).
On the afflicted Mailbox server, open the Exchange Management Shell by right-clicking the shortcut and selecting “Run as Administrator”.
Within the Exchange Management Shell, navigate to the Exchange Scripts directory.
Within the Exchange Management Shell, run the following script: .\Repair-ExchangeSearchSymlinks.ps1
Within the Exchange Management Shell, run the following script (without the symbols [] and substitute the database name(s) for any databases you wish to reset: .\ResetSearchIndex.ps1 [-force] <dbname> [<dbname>]...
You will receive an Event ID 109 when the rebuilding of the index starts for each database and an Event ID 110 for each database when the index rebuild has completed.
After receiving Event ID 110 for each database, test to make sure search functions correctly with both OWA and Outlook operating in Online Mode.

Iphone4 doesn´t work properly in 3G mode

My iphone4 doesn´t work properly in 3G mode. Telefon calls break and telefone quality is poor. Internet is mostly not posssible. With 2G both (Telefone, Internet) work. The problem is not that vodafone net is poor because other smartphones work properly at the same location. Telefone calls often break with "no connection" even with 5 sticks. Internet speed is mostly poor, i.E, slower than 2G. It is definitly not a net problem. I think (not sure) the problems occures wit IOs 4.3.3

Thanks for your help Jeffrey,
But
- I checked with several USB audio devices, from different providers. The issue is the same.
- I checked with several applications (Winamp, MediaPlayer, ...). Same issue.
- I checked these devices with different laptops (tried 3 different models) : I have NO PROBLEM.
- The USB devices I use do not need external power supply. I tried EDIROL UA-25 which works perfectly in any case, but not with my TOSHIBA M40.
- I agree that some application can disturb audio management. But in that case, I would like to know which one from the standard installation is the cause, so that I can fire it. It's anyway curious to see that switching from ACPI to Standard mode fixes the issue, as all applications are still there. I would say the applications are not the issue, then.
- All Microsoft updates have already been installed
- I think I tried everything that could be done by closing applications, changing power management modes, system cache, ...
- I have no other hardware device connected/installed (printer or whatever)
- RECORD works perfectly. So if some application layer was disturbing, I would bet it would bother in Play and Record as well.
CONCLUSION : Unless someone can prove it (and I'm ready for some testing), I still believe there's a harware/driver layer that is faulty in the Toshiba management.
And I don't need to contact the manufacturer, as I AM one of them :)
If you are part of the Toshiba support, let me know. Maybe we can investigate together.
FYI : I had to create a new user ID for this forum as it did not accept the one I created this morning anymore :(
Thanks anyway.

Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
*[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If that works post back for further advice.
Next step, if safe mode did not work.
First: Try a clean install, (you have had a none standard version installed previously) that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
See
* this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
Second: try a New Profile
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
* this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
**[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

What can I do if my CD or DVD drive doesn't work properly in Windows 8?

QuestionWhat can I do when if my laptop CD or DVD drive doesn't work properly in Windows 8?
AnswerNote: For help with this issue in Windows 7, please see this article.
To get your CD or DVD drive working correctly, try these suggestions in the order listed.
Reinstall the Driver
Hold the Windows key and press the 'x' key to open a menu in the lower-left. In this menu, select "Device Manager." Expand "DVD/CD-ROM drives." Right-click the entry for the CD/DVD drive nested under "DVD/CD-ROM drives," then select "Uninstall." Finally, restart the computer. The computer will reinstall the drivers for the drive.
Power Cycle
Even when your laptop is off and unplugged, residual power can still be held in some components. While this is normal, clearing it can help with some hardware problems. Perform these steps to complete what’s called a power cycle.
Ensure the laptop is turned off.
Unplug the laptop's AC power cable.
Unplug all wires and peripherals. This includes CDs, DVDs, USB sticks, mice, printers, and any other accessories.
Remove the battery (if the model has a removable battery). If the model does not have a removable battery, check your user's guide to determine if you have a pinhole reset on the bottom. If you do, press this.
Hold down the power button for thirty seconds.
Reattach the battery if removed.
Connect the AC adaptor to the power socket that was confirmed to be working in the first step.
Connect the other end of the AC adaptor to your computer.
Start the computer and test the drive
Microsoft Fix-it
Your computer may exhibit one or more of the following symptoms:
Your CD or DVD drive no longer appears in Windows
Your CD or DVD drive does not read or write and is shown as disabled
The media in your CD or DVD drive cannot be read
The media cannot be written to a CD or DVD inserted into the drive
You receive an error message about your CD or DVD drive
If any of these symptoms apply to your computer, use Microsoft Fix-it troubleshooter available here.
System Restore
Try using System Restore to restore to the most restore point from before the problem arose.
How To: Understanding System Restore, Refresh, Reset, and, Recovery options in Windows 8 + Video
System Recovery
If the System Restore doesn't solve the issue, you could try a System Reset. Resetting your laptop to its original, out-of-the-box state is a great way to eliminate software as a possible cause of the problem. Note that doing a system reset will return the laptop to its default conditions, completely wiping your data. Information on how to perform a system recovery can be found in your user's guide.
For more information on performing a recovery, see the following article:
How To: Understanding System Restore, Refresh, Reset, and, Recovery options in Windows 8 + Video
Contact Customer Support
If the drive doesn't work after performing a recovery, it may be due to hardware failure. Please call customer support or seek servicing.

See this Microsoft article - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060/en-us For ways to fix manually

Satellite Pro L20 doesn't work properly with USB Fast Track audio i.f.

Hello!
I have used my Fast Track USB on new Toshiba Satellite L40 and I never had problems with it. I could set low latency and I did few songs with it.
Yesterday I bought another notebook, thinking of home recording studio. It's used Toshiba Satellite Pro L20. It doesn't work properly with my interface. When I listen music on Winamp or do anything on Fruity Loops I hear loud clicks, pops, noises. They introduce samples, or they appear during playback or after a sample is stopped.
I noticed, drivers for Satellite Pro L20 are a problem. Its not supported by Toshiba anymore?! The only drivers for chipset are very old and you can download em only from Toshiba website. The chipset is ATI Xpress 200M. Its drivers are with graphic card. Recently I noticed you can download "ATI Catalyst Legacy Display Driver for Windows XP - Motherboard/IGP Drivers 9.11" and CRACK IT to make it possible to install on mobile unit such as L20. Yep its funny but its impossible to do otherwise!
things I have tried and they still not help:
# drivers replacement, original were released in 2004. I installed recent version.
# driver settings, low latency, high latency
# asio and different settings
# pluging the interface to another usb socket.
# trying what happens when I use battery and when I use adapter
# updated bios
# turned off onboard units such as wifi card, sound card
# checked IRQ list
pops still appear.
my config:
Toshiba Satellite Pro L20
Win XP Home SP3
Celeron M 1,5GHz
896Mb ram
M-Audio Fast Track USB, drivers: 6.0.2
Kind regards

Thanks for answer. I still have L40 but I try to run my homerecording on L20. The L40 is now used by whole my family. It's possible to swap them but there's a problem - L20 has Norway keyboard and I'm the only person at home who doesn't often look down while typing. In Poland, we use standard ms keyboard. I'd buy special stickers, it's about only to make special chars get back to their places.
I installed Windows on this computer end set it to best performance possible.
Since I created this thread, guys from M-Audio support tried to solve my problem - nothing helped. I think potential solutions are exhausted.
