Busy timer clock in middle of screen, common solutions not helping

I have a Blackberry Tour 9630 with the 5.0.0.591 OS, and I am consistently seeing a busy timer/clock in the middle of my screen. It's usually there for a 10-15 sec and seems as if the BB is "thinking". I have tried the common solutions such as closing apps with the close command, doing a battery pull, etc, and have continued to have this issue. Any suggestions?
If it helps, here are the third party apps I have installed. I've put an asterisk next to the ones that need to stay open (or at least I think they need to stay open?):
- FourSquare   1.8.4
- GoogleMaps   3.2.1
- *Memory Booster   3.3
- *MissingSync   2.0.4.301
- OpenTable   1.0.2
- *RingScheduler   1.0.30
- *Skydeck   3.20
- The Weather Channel   1.5

Are you storing pictures ON the BlackBerry device or ON the Media Card?
Look at Options > File Free. What is the number stated there?
Likewise, you might not think you have a lot of apps running, but if you open the Application Switcher, what's there?
Is the browser on an active page?
Try opening the browser > options > Cache Operations > Clear Cache.
Now do a reboot: With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
After the device is backup, give it five minutes to settle all the data activity down.
Now, see if you keep having the hourglass lag?

With OS X10.9 the Mail window (after hitting reply or forward) grows ridiculously long, sometimes 4 times the width of the screen and would not allow me to readjust the window size. Any one has the same problem? How shall I go about fixing it? (Thanks)

I'm having the same problem. I've tried going into the Library and deleting the mail plist file(s), which fixes the problem, but only temporarily. Would appreciate any help here too!

Run-time box in middle of screen

For some reason I get this RunTime box in the middle of the screen I am in DeBug Mode in 8.1.0 LabWindows/CVI. in the many systems I have built for the lab at least 2 have this annoying box that pops up when CVI is launched. if clicked on to close or terminate, CVI is terminated. Does anyone know how to fix this?

CVI Runtime box on screen.JPG ‏101 KB

This window is part of CVI, and part of the CVI run-time engine. Normally, it is displayed well off-screen, and can't be activated, therefore no one would ever be aware of its presence. The most likely reason why it might be visible in your case would be if your video adapter has an option to move off-screen windows into the visible area of the monitor. If you can, I would suggest that you modify this option in the video adapter to not do this for CVI (I'm assuming that it allows you to specify applications for which you don't want this feature). If that's not possible, then disable this option altogether. CVI will probably change in the future to not require that this window exist, but until then, the only solution is to disable the option.

Locked in recovery mode after 3.0 update, common solution not working

A few minutes into updating my touch to 3.0, my computer says "found new hardware" and wants to install the driver for "Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)". It can't find a driver so it asks me to install from disk, but of course there is no disk.
the ipod shows the picture of the usb cable and the itunes logo, and restarting it doesn't do any good. every time i plug it in, i get the same thing.
people have told me that the resolution to this problem is this
1. Dissconnect your iPhone.
2. Reboot & reconnect the phone.
3. Select "Install Drivers Later".
4. Open the Start menu > (Right click) My Computer > Select Properties.
5. Select "Device Manager" from the top left pane.
6. The phone will be listed under "Other devices" as Apple Mobile Device.
7. Right click it and select update drivers - Select "Browse my computer..."
8. Navigate to c:
Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
9. Click okay - Watch it install - Backup & Update with iTune - Chill out.
okay so i followed that to the letter, and it tells me "windows could not find the driver software for your device, etc."
so, could somebody please help?

Here's another option for you-
If you have access to another PC running iTunes 8.2, you can use that to restore you Touch to version 3.0. After the restore, you'll be able to sync with your regular PC and reload all your things.
Here's how-
Do not connect you Touch to the 2nd PC yet. You'll need to copy the 3.0 update from your machine to the 2nd PC. The update on your machine should be located at C:\Documents and Settings\(account name)\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates. The file name is iPod2,13.0_7A341Restore.ipsw Copy this file into the same folder on the 2nd PC. It's possible that the folder ......\iPod Software Updates doesn't exist on the 2nd PC. If so, you'll need to add it, then copy the iPod2,13.0_7A341Restore.ipsw file into it.
Connect your Touch and do the restore, but don't sync it. You'll now have 3.0 installed and you should be able to connect to your main PC and sync your Touch.

"Display Unavailable" red canvas screen-forum solutions not working. URGENT

I a few days ago I started getting, in the midst of editing, my canvas going red with the message "Display Unavalible" in it. After this, the sequence would not play. If I close the sequence and try to reopen it, I get an error window which just says "error:out of memory". I found this problem on the board and tried three solutions: deleting all of my render files in render manager (didn't work); trashing FCP preferences (didn't work); checking for any CMYK stills in the timeline (there were none, but there were greyscale clips, I removed them, still didn't work ); and making the sequence offline, then reconnecting all clips and re-rendering (that worked, then it happened again after working a while).
I am in a very tight deadline situation for the screening of this film and must find a solution to this problem! Other sequences in the same project appear to play okay. It seems to be this sequence only. I have done a few things differently in this sequence than I have in others. Maybe they could provide some clues as to what might be causing the problem.
1. I upgraded Magic Bullet for Editors and have applied several effects (problem started after installing MB, for what it's worth).
2. I am also using Natress filters (including frame rate conversion/deinterlacing) on top of Magic bullet filters.
3. I have dv source footage which I have enlarged up to 300%, sometimes with filters applied to those clips (yes I know this is highly unorthodox but this is a punk rock movie and I am experimenting).
The last thing that I did was remove frame rate conversion from all Natress effected clips that also had Magic Bullet Filters on them, reduced all clips to 100%. Then when I when to reconnected the clips the **** thing did it again.
Is there anyone out there who can help with this? I can pay for extra assistance if necessary!
Thanks so much,
Patrick

Thank you for that, I also found this article, silently hoping that this was not the case. On one hand this is good news, as I can get it repaired for free, while on the other I now need to find a way to back up my data without my screen.
As a side note the computer screen did light up last night, on a random restart. However, it once again will not turn on, and I may have lost my chance to back up my data. The symptoms fit a burned out video card, so I guess my next step is heading on over to the apple store.
Thanks again for the article, I'll be printing it off and bringing a copy with me.

Since I did the recent firefox update the it takes up the entire screen and I can see nothing on top or bottom and my screen controls do not help this. What can I do?

There are no more details to give.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />

Before Firefox opens the User account control comes up and asks: Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? Must hit yes for Firefox to open. This happens every time and adjusting the level of notification does not help.

It started happening after a recent update from both windows and firefox

Thanks for the help I'll keep the info just in case - but I got so frustrated that I just deleted the program and then re downloaded the current version now everything works fine.

Draining Battery - Timer Clock

I have a Blackberry 9300 that is suddenly showing a timer clock on the main screen which is draining the battery. I've checked history in the forum and tried all the suggestions. I have never downloaded any extra apps and all the apps that came with the phone are closed except the basics that remain open. I have removed the battery while the phone is powered on and left it out for several minutes to hard reboot and reset it many times. Nothing is working. Any other suggestions? It won't hold a charge for more than 6 hours.

How can I set screen saver clock which show time and date when all screen is black. Other phones have this option but I didn't find on iphone. Pl guide.

HA! I figured the find my iphone out!!!!! You can have more than one icloud account in "Mail, Contacts and Calendars". So my husband's & kids' phone icloud account under "settings, icloud "is their individual @me.com account. Set it to everything you want EXCEPT Find My Iphone. Then under "settings, mail/contacts/calendars" you set up both accounts (your @me.com which may already be there), then add another with the main appleID and enable ONLY Find My Iphone. Now when any of us log into Find My Iphone from any device with our main apple ID for the app store, all the devices show up!!!! YIPPEE. I made my own day!
I think the message I got previously was because I hadn't disabled the find my iphone on the @me.com account first.

My FaceTime isn't working properly. Every call I make a black dot appears on the camera in the middle (fixed onto the screen, and is not dirt), and the calls always fail. It would ring 6 times and then say call failed. How can I fix this?

If FaceTime ever worked properly for you, restarting your modem (and separate router/wireless if you have such) may help. If the problem continues, try connecting at a different location to see if the problem is within your wi-fi.
The black dot problem may mean you need to reset your iPod. If that does not help, it may need service by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Tiny green dot in middle of screen

I noticed yesterday that I have a tiny green dot in the middle of my iPhone 3G screen. I have not dropped or damaged my phone in any way. This dot appeared coincidentally after upgrading to iOS 4 but I think it's just that...merely coincidental??
Any advice?
Thanks!

Hi.
LCD screens have pixels which are made up of 3 sub-pixels of red, green, and blue. It is possible that one green sub-pixel may be stuck in the 'on' position. A quick internet search for the term 'stuck pixel' will reveal that this is a fairly common situation for LCD screens, not just those from Apple.
Now, one potential way to attempt to un-stick a stuck pixel is to use an application that activates all of the pixels on the scree at the same time, and can change the colors through the 3 primary ones of red, green, and blue, as well as all of them (white) and none of them (black). The free 'flashlight' app will activate all of the screens pixels, and you can set it to automatically 'strobe' through multiple colors of your choosing. So you may be able to use this app to 'shock' your screen pixel and un-stick it. It may or may not help, but it will only cost you a little bit of your time (and no money) to try it.

Unable to communicate with time clock across VLANS

I have a situation where i am installing SGE2000Ps to replace my old switches and configuring VLANS. The time clock will not communicate across the VLANS. If I unplug the network cable and plug it back in I will get two successful pings. If i use a PC configured with the same network settings as the time clock and plug it into the port for the time clock it communcates fine. Have any one come across this problem?

Hi Wayne,
Thank you for contacting Cisco Small Business forum.
I am sorry that you experience this issue.
I have a question for you. What is providing clocking on your network?
The switch operates only as an SNTP client, and cannot provide time services to other systems. So, you can configure it time manually by going:
System > System Management > Time > System Time;
To avoid any issues on your network. I would suggest to use one common SNTP server for all of your network devices. On the switch you can configure it here:
System > System Management > Time > SNTP Settings. If you do not have SNTP server on your network, you can use publicly available one.
Let me know if that helped.
Sincerely,

10.9.3 on iMac 27", dock displays near middle of screen, desktop picture isn't covering whole desktop. Anyone else having this annoying glitch?

Hello Everyone.
I upgraded an iMac 27" (3.4 Ghz, Intel Core i7, 3TB fusion) from Mac OS X 10.8.6., to Mac OS X 10.9.3 a few days back.
Ever since then, the 2nd user to login on a given day, gets the dock displayed near the middle of the screen. It still interacts OK (e.g. you can launch applications from there), but it is not in it's correct location. The desktop picture (in this case, a shade of solid dark grey), only covers the smaller desktop area (up to where the Dock is). The remaining area of the screen automatically gets a 'light grey' background colour.
So person A logs in, no problem. But when person B comes along (with perosn A still logged in), the user logins, and they get this 'chopped of' version of the screen, with the dock mid-screen. (See screenshot attached).
The users can still click on any dock icons, and the applications will open up. But the dock won't return to it's original home, and refuses to 'jump' back to their proper home (at the bottom of the screen).
I've tried using CSCREEN to change the resolution at startup, via a terminal command and Automator, but that only works on some occasions. Others (like the attached screenshot) boot with the two-colour background, and 'confused' dock. A manual screen resolution change in the Settings area (down and then back up again), resolves the issue for that boot.
I've tried stripping back all non-essential plug-ins, tried removing a variety of start-up items, add-ons etc. I've tried creating a 'test' account, and the same issues appear to this account too.
Is it just me, or are others having problems with a misbehaving dock / screen resolution, in Mac OS X 10.9.3 / on an iMac 27"?
Thank you!
D.

Hi folks.
I found a solution...Looks like the Dock is the culprit it's self. So, I made an automator app that I fire up automatically at login time. The automator app runs a shell script command:
killall Dock
(make sure you have a capital D on Dock)
The Dock gets closed off, and it then re-opens in the correct spot (bottom of the screen -- not the middle of the screen). Hope this helps someone else!
Enjoy.

TS1367 My MacBook Pro when in sleep mode display turns black unable to wake. When using the mouse it goes across screen like using an eraser and finding the middle of screen to get to the password area to turn back on.

really have a hard time when leaving the computer on when attending other matters in the house. When returning, the screen is completely black and unable to wake(?) by touching the mouse or touch pad to put my password and be able to use the computer. When I move the mouse pad looks like I am using the eraser like in photoshop and it clears the screen little by little. Now I am able to point to the middle of the screen and erase the area where the password is in order to get to the screen and use the computer again. Anyone else having this problem? Took the laptop to the apple store near home and they told me there is nothing that can be done and I have to wait untile the new operating system, Mountain Lion comes out and supposedly this will fix the problem. HELP!!!!

I was so frustrated I call the Apple Tech Support and they walked me through. It has been doing great. The screen still turns black but now, when I touch the mouse or touch pad, I get the password prompt. The Apple Store did not help but talking the the Apple Tech has helped a lot. Thank you.
