Browsers are not quitting on log out using Mac OS 10.6.8.

When logging out of user accounts, my browsers are not quitting properly (I'm getting the spinning beachball) and I have to force quit them to complete logging out of the accounts. It happens whether I'm using Safari 5.1.7 or Firefox 13.01. I haven't noticed it happening with any other open apps. It doesn't happen every time either. Any idea how to fix this? Never had it happen before I upgraded to Snow Leopard from Tiger.

Hi..
Try Starting up in Safe Mode
That deletes system caches that may help especially since you upgraded from Tiger to SL.
Keep in mind, a Safe Mode takes longer than a normal boot so be patient.
Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Restart.
Try a browser. If the same thing happens again, the startup disk may need repairing.
Launch Disk Utility located in /Applications/Utilities
Select the startup disk on then select the click the First Tab.
Click Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permisions)
If necessary, click Repair Disk.
Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
While you have the DU window open check to see how much free space there is on the startup disk. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
You'll see Capacity & Available at the bottom of that window.
And make sure S.M.A.R.T Status says Verified

  • Multiple session are open thought Users log out.

    Hello Gurus,
    I do see at CMC that many sessions are being open for many days even though users are logged out.
    We are using SAP 4.0 (14.0.4)  SP4. It's causing license issues and users are not able to log in.
    We have restarted our VM's and clear the IE browsers as well but issue still remains.
    Can you please help me on this.
    Best Regards,
    Sai

    Hi Sai,
    Could you give more information about BOE products you use and for which datasource type (UNV, UNX ?).
    I know SP04 still had different issues where multiple sessions were created when working on UNX Universes (see https://support.wdf.sap.corp/sap/support/notes/1764372), and it could lead to "lost sessions". There are other similar problems fixed in more recent versions of BOE, so you may think about upgrading your platform at some point to benefit from all these corrections.

    Pancenter,
    Thanks for the response, but I do not have a midi interface. I am using a midi to usb connector cable, thus bypassing the need for a Midi interface.
    The Mac reads the USB cable as a midi device, but not the keyboard that I am trying to use as a controller. I have tried it with my korg sp 300 and with my Nord Electro 2.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Tristan
    Tristan...
    This is what you have, correct?
    http://www.alesis.com/usbmidicable
    This from Alesis..
    "The AudioLink Series USB cable receives and outputs MIDI signal thanks to its internal interface. The USB-MIDI Cable connects plug-and-play to your Mac or PC for an all-in-one USB-MIDI solution."
    Notice, -internal interface-. What you have is a simple USB MIDI Interface. Most MIDI interfaces are USB.
    My point is (was), MIDI OUT of the Korg goes to the connector marked MIDI IN on the Alesis, those new to MIDI often get this wrong.

  • ITunes preferences not saved after logging out.

    iTunes preferences not saved when logging out. Using iTunes11.0.4.4  Preferences are not saved when logging back in. Is this a bug or is there a file or registry key I need to fix?

    Hello JK,
    If you used Mac's automatic Software Update... to get to 10.5.1, try this:
    • Repair permissions.
    • Download and install the Mac OS X 10.5.1 Update.
    • Repair permissions again after the restart that completes the install.
    • Test to see if problem is still there.
    If problem exists, try suggestions relevant to your system from Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight.

  • JCOerror: This system does not let you log on using a password

    Hi,
    "JCOerror: This system does not let you log on using a password"
    This is the error message I get from MII tries to connect to the Production ECC using my credentials to perform a BAPI call.
    These credentials work fine interactively (using the SAP GUI) and for BAPI calls from MII on SAP Development instances.
    I can interpret this message in two ways:
    - My login can not log on using password (though I can interactively)
    - The server does not allow logging on using password only. (It might require to pre-authorize the connecting server as well).
    I guess my question can be if this error requires adding additional rights to my login for the production environment, or if this is a global SAP setup for this system?  Or something else?
    In either way, what is required to have this work?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Kindly try the following options.
    Try executing the BAPI seperately in se37, using your login credentials.
    Check whether RFC is enabled for the BAPI.
    Check whether the SAP server is details are furnished correctly in "SAP Server"(available under "Data Services") editor.
    We can ensure this by checking the connection status link in xMII.(Link is available under "Data Services").
    If connection status is "Running" then SAP server setting configuration is fine. Else it is not configured properly.
    Try executing the BAPI in BLS(Business Logic Services) using JCO connector.
    I believe if any one of these scenarios fail then "Proxy Error" might thrown.
    Thanks

    login/min_password_uppercase=1
    login/min_password_digits=2
    login/min_password_specials=1
    after changing values i restarted the Instance. But the problem is when i am trying to login to the system it is showing  an error message : "This system does not let you log on using a password". I know why  this error occurs...
    but how to resolve this error? plz Help.
    Thanks in advance

  • I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?

    To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
    Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
    But however you do choose to link the two machines...
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    and select the Library that you moved.  That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
    Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
    Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

  • Search Suggestions and Past Searches are not prolific as it is used to be.

    In the latest version of Firefox, the search suggestions and the search history are only a few items. There used to be a scroll bar and also a separator to distinguish between our past searches and google search suggestions. There seems to be a change in the search box. Is this permanent - and any nice search box or a toolbar to replace it?

    Hi - Yes, that returned the old search bar, thank you. But when I enter a keyword again, the past search tips and keyword suggestions are not as much as it used to be - there is no scroll bar and a few keywords (around 10). Is there any reason for this? I guess this is irreversible as that changed in the new version of the Firefox?

  • HT201317 When I view photos on my devices some are not oriented correctly. I used Picassa to turn all photos upright and then copied those photos into the upload file but they are still not corrected when viewed on my devices (ipads)

    When I view photos on my devices some are not oriented correctly. I used Picassa to turn all photos upright and then copied those photos into the upload file but they are still not corrected when viewed on my devices (ipads)

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

    If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.
