Bug with "Put Back" feature.

If I delete file dragging it out from Dock's folder to Trash (checked with Downloads, Applications, custom one, Documents) — file can't be Put Back from Trash (CMD+Z as well).
Deleting the same file using Fn+Delete button or opening folder and dragging from Finder's window seems to be working properly.
Anyone met such problem?

You are right. It does appear to be a bug. I will file a bug report. You can too if you register as an Apple Developer (free).

Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick. First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it. Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy...

Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick. First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it. Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy... When I search for a file, A) it asks me if it's a name, or it wont produce anything, and B), its slower than in prior OS versions and in some instances I have to toggle to a different directory and go back to my original directory in the search: menu bar or the search wont produce anything... Very buggy.

It appears to me that network file access is buggy in Maverick.
In my case I have a USB Drive attached to airport extreme (new model) and when I open folders on that drive they all appear empty. If I right click and I select get info after a few minutes! I get a list of the content.
It makes impossible navigate a directory tree.
File access has been trashed in Maverick.
They have improved (read broken) Finder. I need to manage a way to downgrade to Lion again.

Hi Midnightbrat,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The troubleshooting steps for the camera on the iPad are similar to the iPhone: I've highlighted the pertinent steps below:
Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Camera
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash; try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
Try turning the iPad off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try switching between the front and the back cameras to verify if the issue persists on both.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

My friend dislikes the updated itunes 11.0.1 and wants the previous version put back in. On a Macbook 2,1 with OSX 10. 6.8 how can this be done?

You need a Time Machine backup to restore an old version. If you don't have one, you'll lose your library because it can only be used with iTunes 11

*** Priority list for TOP-2 Bugs - and TOP-3 feature requests ***

I'm more a business type of user - and I want to share my main problems/bug with this community in the hope that the WebOS developers read this...These bugs are so obvious and I am really wondering why these haven't been fixed immediately... BUGS: 1. Email: Delete of IMAP emails doesn't work: Each time I wipe out an email in an IMAP folder, it immediately comes back with the next email sync (which is pre-set "when new email arrives" - which happens in the day time every couple of minutes. PLEASE handle this like all the general behaviour: when wiping out then ask delete or cancel. And after deleting, move to the deleted folder. I am using the German no. 1 IMAP email service GMX (it's free), but I'm sure this happens with other email services as well. 2. PDF reader: delete of PDF files doesn't work: It was working in Version 1.3.1 - but since then it's not working anymore. I use the PDF reader, so I want to delete files from the file list by wiping out! FEATURE REQUESTS: 1. Sync of Memo with Exchange: we are waiting! Calendar, addresses and tasks are working - only missing part is memos! Do it! 2. handling address categories: I work for years with categories (no other way with over 1000 addresses) - so I need to handle categories. Just put this (Exchange-synced) field into the address and introduce a view filter in the menu. Then I can easily find addresses, like 'NYC restaurants' 3. Full text search in addresses and calendar entries: I have to search in the memo/notice field of calendar entries and addresses. This search may take longer of course, but no problem. Hi WebOS developers: feed-back welcome!!!!

Hello and welcome to the forums;
I created a GMX account myself, to see if the issue could be with your provider specifically. Used automatic setup for the email address, and the Pre automatically recognized as IMAP. I then sent several test messages to the new gmx account from my gmail account, and after each one arrived I deleted it by swiping off from the inbox. When the new email arrived, the old previously deleted email was not in the inbox, but still in the deleted items folder where it should be.
However on the web portal for the GMX account, I saw the "original" unread email in the trash, along with a "copy" in the inbox. This seems to be a design setting for the provider, but it did not mean I kept getting deleted emails back in my inbox. Have you checked the account settings on your Pre to make sure the account is set as IMAP and not POP? If the email was set as POP by accident, that could explain why your email folders are not synchronizing.
For the PDF viewer, you are correct that you cannot delete PDF files from the view list, and unfortunately I don't have access to a 1.3.1 device to see if it was possible then. At this time, managing PDF files is best done by connecting your Pre via USB to a computer and manually deleting files there.
To suggest the ability to delete PDFs on device and other changes, we have a feedback portal at www.palm.com/feedback which is a direct link to our developers.

Step 1
Remove "MacKeeper" as follows.
"MacKeeper" has only one useful feature: it deletes itself.
Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions.
IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Applications
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your login password. Click the Uninstall MacKeeper button in the dialog that appears. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. Reboot.
Failure to remove MacKeeper will result from neglecting any one of these points:
Quit MacKeeper before dragging it to the Trash.
Don't empty the Trash after dragging the application to it. Let MacKeeper delete itself.
Don't try to drag the MacKeeper icon in the Dock to the Trash.
Here are some general suggestions. If you want your computer to be usable, don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this stuff is useless, or worse than useless.
The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
The only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it.
Step 2
Restore from the last backup that predates the unwanted changes.

Has anyone else noticed this bug with multitasking gestures on iOS 5?

I recently updated my iPad 2 to iOS 5 and have just noticed this bug with multitasking gestures.
If you're currently in an app and use the four-finger swipe up to open the app switcher, and then subsequently close another app that's open in the background from the switcher, the app doesn't seem to fully close. What I mean is that if you now use the four-finger swipe right/left to switch apps, when you get to the place where that app you closed was, it's still open, and after you view it, it pops back into the app switcher. It seems like the multitasking gestures feature isn't recognizing that you've closed the app and that it should skip it from now on.
If you do the above steps again, but this time after you close the app from the switcher, use the five-finger pinch to go back to the home screen, it seems to clear the "cache" being used by the the gestures feature. Now if you go back into any app and swipe left to right, the closed app won't load up anymore (which is how it should correctly work).
Has anyone else noticed this, or can anyone else reproduce the bug as I described? I'd appreciate it if an Apple employee could confirm that this is a bug in iOS 5 and not just something wrong on my end. Thanks in advance.

After the time spent and attention to detail in replicating this fault, I do think that you should email your findings to Nokia Care to be found on:

This is after all a discussion forum and others may find the same bug, but until it is logged at Nokia there is little chance of future modification if required!
Done already. They may of course have corrected this in the 11.x firmware currently being rolled out but as I don't yet have access to it I can't say.

C++ API: is there a bug with Map::InvokeAll?

Hello,
I'm trying to use entry processors for doing like "put if absent", "delete where", ...
I works fine except for the return values. Whatever I do, the map returned by InvokeAll is always empty!
This a simple example:

res:
delete where2: (01,v:01), (+++,+++MOD), (05,v:05), (15,v:15), The cache is modified as expected but the maps returned by invokeAll are always empty!
Is it a bug? Do I understand the documentation incorrectly? Do I use the API incorrectly?

Yes, I've noticed the difference between ConditionalPut and ConditionalPutAll. Ther constructor are:
* Construct a ConditionalPut that updates an entry with a new value
* if and only if the filter applied to the entry evaluates to true.
* This processor optionally returns the current value as a result of
* the invocation if it has not been updated (the filter evaluated to
* false).
* @param vFilter the filter to evaluate an entry
* @param ohValue a value to update an entry with
* @param fReturn specifies whether or not the processor should
* return the current value in case it has not been
* updated
ConditionalPut(Filter::View vFilter, Object::Holder ohValue,
bool fReturn = false);and
* Construct a ConditionalPutAll processor that updates an entry with
* a new value if and only if the filter applied to the entry
* evaluates to true. The new value is extracted from the specified
* map based on the entry's key.
* @param vFilter the filter to evaluate all supplied entries
* @param vMap a map of values to update entries with
ConditionalPutAll(Filter::View vFilter, Map::View vMap);
ConditionalPut has an extra flag for returning the new value. It does work with a call to invoke, I've tested it. Why can't we do the same with ConditionalPutAll? Do I have to N ConditionalPut instead of 1 ConditionalPutAll in order to know if my values have been updated?
ConditionalRemove has the same flag than ConditionalPut:
* Construct a ConditionalRemove processor that removes an
* InvocableMap entry if and only if the filter applied to the entry
* evaluates to true.
* This processor may optionally return the current value as a result
* of the invocation if it has not been removed (the filter evaluated
* to false).
* @param vFilter the filter to evaluate an entry
* @param fReturn specifies whether or not the processor should
* return the current value if it has not been removed
ConditionalRemove(Filter::View vFilter, bool fReturn = false);But when used with invokeAll, it doesn't return any value as shown in the example I've sent. Is it a bug or a designed feature?

After i erased whole data from the ipod touch 3rd gen. when i put back to sync it. it says in the windows connect to itunes, which i did,i also installed new itunes but still it doesnt recognise . pls help me if u have gone thru same trouble like me.

I do not understand what "it says in the windows connect to itunes" means?
What is "it" and what is "windows"?
Maybe:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Lr4 re-occuring bug with Tethered Capture bar disappearing

In Lr4 64bit Win7 re-occuring bug with Tethered Capture Bar disappearing after deleting a picture in library. The only way to get it back is to Stop and Start Tethered Capture. Is there a fix for this?

Hi marketbreak. If you can reproduce it reliably, can I get you to post this on the Official Feature Request/Bug Report Forum where your reported can be tracked properly please? Real bugs can easily get lost in the volume of threads on this user to user forum.

Timeout before connections are put back in the pool ?

Hi,
I am running a test with a single client : the test client send a requests,
wait for the response and when it gets it send another request and so on.
Looking at the connection pool, I can see that up to 8 DB connections
(connection high column in the WL console) have been used during the test
and I'm wondering why.
Our code has the following logic :
- get connection from pool
- execute query
- release connection (done in a finally block)
We're 100% sure the connections get put back in the pool after each
request. Is it possible that it would take some time before the connection
is put back in the pool which would explain why we use more than 1
connection ?
Thanks

Hi,
All these attributes are for internal JDBC XA connection pool usages only.
Their main purpose is to work around bugs of various vendor's JDBC XA
drivers. Therefore, by default, it should be turned off. Also, they are
only applicable for TxDataSource with a XA connection pool, not a regular
connection pool.
Which driver are you using?
thanks Priscilla. Ok, so I won't mess with these parameters :-). Are you
confirming that they have nothing to do with the following behaviour :
1/ Start a transaction (entry of transaction-demarcated method)
2/ get a connection from the pool ,
3/ execute the query,
4/ release the connection
5/ get a connection from the pool ,
6/ execute the query,
7/ release the connection
8/ commit the transaction (exit method)
Then, the pool will show that 2 connections were used (and not one as I was
expecting). Joseph confirmed to me that this behaviour was due to the fact
that the connection is not recycled till the end of the transaction. I was
wondering if it had anything to do with these parameters ?
Thanks

How can I "Put Back" a time machine backup from the trash to my external hard drive?

Basically what happened was I accidentally put an older time machine backup from my external hard drive into the trash on my macbook. Since then, time machine has made new backups onto my external hard drive. How can I either "Put Back" or replace the deleted backup back into my hard drive?
Whenever I try to move it it says "A newer item named “Backups.backupdb” already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the older one you’re moving?" I click replace and after a few minutes of loading, it says "Cannot replace. An item named "" already exists."

As long as you don't delete the trash, the files should be recoverable.
I suspect using the Put Back command could take a long time, so be patient.
If your Time Machine backups are mixed with your daughter's backups you might want to buy a larger drive and move the Time Machine files to the new drive.
Regarding missing photos in iPhoto...There might be options to rebuild/recover that data from iPhoto rather than trying to revert to a Time Machine backup.
Check out this third party app, iPhoto Library Manager. It has a demo.
http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/
Options for a larger drive.
I like the Seagate USB 3.0 Backup plus drives. Works on USB 2.0 ports. They come formatted for PC but easy to format in Disk Utility.
I don't recommend Western Digital because of the boot problem with some of their drives.
LaCie makes good drives.
All Mac formatted drives will cost more and it’s easy to reformat with Disk Utility. Do not use the software that comes with the drives. It’s recommended that you use Apple’s Disk Utility.
Prices vary but this gives you an idea of what you’ll find. As you notice the second and third TB is usually only $15 more per TB. Normally, you’ll find these prices but right now the 1T is more than the 2T
Seagate Backup Plus 1 TB USB 3.0 $85
Seagate Backup Plus 2 TB USB 3.0 $99
Seagate Backup Plus 3 TB USB 3.0 $115

ICal bug with month view

I primarily use week view on iCal, but sometimes i switch to month view for a larger perspective. Often, i use month view to check for any leftover events from the previous month in case i forgot to delete one or two.
I just found a bug concerning this. If i click on "month" today, it'll take me to the month view for june 2011, and from there i can navigate forwards or backwards. However, may 2011 seems to have a bug. If i click on < from june, it does nothing; if i click again, it takes me to april 2011. Similarly, if i click on > from april it does nothing and if i click again it takes me to june.
It doesn't end there. The june/may thing happens only when the selected day (the one shaded light grey on the month and week views and bright blue on the little month tab on the left) is after 04 june. If a day from the first week of june (i have my weeks start on sunday) is selected, the < button does take me to may, but several events which i deleted a long time ago are showing up.
Now, i have an event set for today (04 june). Since the first four days of june are in the same week as the last three of may, the month view for may shows these four days, as any normal calendar app would.
If i use the month tab to the left to navigate, i can access may 2011 by selecting any day on that month. However, iCal's behaviour depends on which day was selected previously. If the previous day was in april 2011 or earlier, iCal will show the month of may completely empty, which is great because i have no leftover appointments from may; however, the box for 04 june is also empty, which it shouldn't be. If the previous day was in june 2011, it'll show may with a repeating event on every sunday except the first, which is completely absurd, since i have deleted this event (and why isn't it showing on the first sunday in may?); the box for 04 june, however, will correctly show the event i have set for this day. If the previous day was in july 2011 or later, it'll show may with the repeating event on all sundays (including the first one) and it won't show anything on the box for 04 june.
Obviously, there is a bug with may 2011.
In case it helps, i do have a repeating event set to all sundays until the end of existence, but i have deleted all the entries from may and previously, since they have obviously already happened. Also, i had many other repeating events set to happen on different weekdays; these are to repeat themselves weekly until about halfway through june, and they started on april or may (can't remember right now). Like the sunday one, i have deleted all the entries from may because they have already taken place. Strangely (and thankfully), none of these appear when i visit may from june or later, as does the sunday event.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Or am i forever stuck with week view, which has so far proven to be bug-free?
(I did a search on Google and another on the Apple forums for this issue but could find nothing, so i decided to ask the question myself. I apologise if somebody has already asked this question and i just couldn't find it.)

Greetings,
I have a vague recollection of someone else with this issue but haven't experienced it myself nor encountered it recently.
Troubleshooting:
1.) First make an iCal backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966.
2.) Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical and / or "ical"
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps!

I sent iTunes to trash. I was able to recover the program but have to "put back" songs one at a time. Is there any way to put back from trash using the "select all" command?

I sent iTues to trash by mistake (trying to delete files from "yesterday"). I got the program back but have to "put back" songs one at a time. Is there a way to put back multiple songs using the "select all" command or anything else? Thanks for the help.

The prgram is in one location and the library (media + library files) are in another. Sending it all to the trash would take some pretty delibrate multiple actions and digging through multiple folders, so I don't know how this was managed unless there's something in Snow Leopard that's new. Occasionally I have moved a file to the trash in Finder that I didn't want to and I can use Finder's "undo" to undo the last move. With many files...?
