Compressor won't work when submitted to Cluster

I've set up my Qmaster preferences to open 4 instances of Compressor 3 on my Mac Pro about a month ago. Now, out of the blue, I'm getting a strange error message when I choose the local cluster and Compressor will not submit the batch. I have not updated any software or changed any Qmaster settings.
The error message is: "Error: An internal error occurred: NSException raised by 'NSPortTimeoutException', reason = '[NSPortCoder sendBeforeTime:sendReplyPort:] timed out'
When I submit to "This Computer" Compressor works fine.
In the preferences pane, my Qmaster settings are
Share this computer as: Services only
Services: Compressor
Share CHECKED
Managed UNCHECKED
Options: 4 Instances (on a dual Quad-core)
Services: Rendering
All UNCHECKED
Everything else set to defaults.
I've also noticed in the Activity monitor compressrd shows as (Not Responding)--I'm guessing that's not good!
Like I said, I had applied the 3.0.1 update when it first came out and it seemed to work fine since then.
I think my next step is going to be to wipe the HD and reinstall everything, but I'm hoping there is a quicker way. Any suggestions?
MacPro 3.0 Ghz 2x Quad
Mac OS 10.4.10
Quicktime 7.1.6
Final Cut Studio 2 (all the x.0.1 updates)

Just had the same problem.
Compressor was stuck on "cancelling" and never completed cancelling.
Other jobs just did not start because cancelling was in progress.
Quitting and restarting all programs did not work.
I finally killed all batch processes using compressor/reset background processing menu item.
Then I encountered this NSPortTimeoutException problem.
I threw away all compressor settings but that did not do much.
Quit/restart still no effect
Then I set the Apple QMaster prefs to 'services and cluster controller'.
Did not do much either.
Then I quit & restart all processes again. This time it seems to work again as it should.
No idea what really was the problem though...

There is a hardware problem. Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

Presumably you are connecting it from the *Dock Connector.* In this case, the controls on the car stereo should be controlling the iPod and the iPod's controls are disabled.
If you are using the car's connection interface, consult the car manual to find out how to control the iPod. If you are using an adaptor between the iPod and car, ask the adaptors installer or manufacturer.

My nano works when connected to a computer but won't work when unconnected. The battery is full.

My nano won't work when it is not connected to a computer. It won't even reset. If I pull it into my computer it will work and it shows that the battery is full. What might be the problem?

Then that sounds to be the Apple ID that owns this Mac, the OS and any preinstalled apps. Did that Apple ID set the Mac up when new?

Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

assuming it is an optical mouse (no ball etc.) then there aren't any moving parts involve in the motion detection
so there's a faulty component or connection
from what you describe it could be just a loose/broken connection, so if you know someone familiar with electronics see if they can open it up and have a look

Movies won't work when a DVD is inserted ?

Movies won't work when a DVD is inserted. What do I do to watch a movie ?

Just one DVD or all of them?
Some DVD's just need a gentile cloth and rubbing alcohol wipe on the bottom to rid of fingerprints etc.
If your using out of region code DVD's (each area of the world has regions codes assigned to the computer and disks) then that needs to be changed.
This can happen if you buy a Mac used from another part of the world or use DVD's from another region.

COMPRESSOR WON'T WORK

I bought the imac i7 + FCS3 editing suite, compressor WON'T WORK! I spent all this money about $5000 on "quality" gear and I have to struggle to get it to work?
<Edited by Host>

Hi,
You don't mention any previous experience with either FCS in general or Compressor in particular, Perhaps if you were to peruse the manual you
might get it to work.

IPod won't work when iTrip is connect to car charger

When I connect my itrip to the car cigarette lighter the iPod won't work, i.e. it will plsay the current tune but the controls don't respond and it stops playing when the current tune ends. It works ok when I disconnect the power.
Ipod model M9244B version 2.3
Any ideas?

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem that indicates a hadware problem, likely a bad battery. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Hyperlinks won't work when copied from h to v layout

hi there, just created a dps folio with lots of hyperlinks (InDesign CS6 everything updated to the latest version).
First in the h version I put a rectangle above the piece of content I wish to be clickable, choose 'hyperlinks' and put the link in it then inside the folio overlays I make sure 'open in folio' is selected. Second I copied the rectangle to the v version of the layout, resize it so it's covering the right content. Inside the hyperlinks panel I'll find the links, sometimes when the rectangle is selected the link shows up darkened, but most of the time when I select the copied rectangle nothing changes inside the hyperlinks-links panel. In that case I selected the rectangle and clicked again on the hyperlink so I think it's 'bind' again.
Testing the folio on the iPad everything works fine in the horizontal version, but when i try the vertical pages not 1 link is working.
When re-ensure the hyperlinks are present in the v version, I noticed that clicking on the rectangles some of them do not highlight any hyperlink but others do and none of both work on the iPad. Strange is also when I click a rectangle who does not highlight any hyperlink and I then select (apply??) the hyperlink inside the hyperlinks panel to 'bind' both together the document would not let me save the document as if there's nothing changed on it..
Is this a bug or what am I doing wrong?
any hints and tips welcome ;-)
I've just deleted the hyperlinks overlays and tried with buttons overlay and 'go to url'. That seems to works on both direction.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
I do not manage the group policy and I'll have it checked. One question though, if it is the policy then would it not affect Excel 2003 as well. When I use Excel 2003, I see buttons in toolbar, using which I convert excel file to pdf and first thing it does is scans for various things ( Hyperlinks is one of them ).
When I tried with excel 2007, I can convert excel file to PDF by selecting print option and selecting Adobe there. It converts the file but the hyper links won't work.
One thing I noticed that using the pdf conversion buttons in toolbar in excel will convert hyperlinks too.
My problem here is that I do not see Adobe Acrobat converstion buttons in Excel 2007.

If you are certain that your files are uploaded properly and in the correct locations, it is likely a permissions issue related to your scripts directory/files (suggestion #2).

5th G iPod won't work when hooked up

My new iPod will charge on my laptop - it shows up on the desktop as well as in iTunes - but it won't work while it's charging from the computer.
I know the battery isn't completely down. Is there some setting I need to change so I can charge AND watch videos at the same time?
Thanks

Click the eject symbol (underlined arrow) next to the iPod in the iTunes source list. The iPod should return to its main menu, but the battery meter should have a lightning bolt in it.

HTMLResources works when tested local but won't work when the folio is uploaded

hi there,
creating a DPS app with on the cover, inside a popup, a button that calls a pdf in the HTMLResources.zip
Button's function
HTMLResources/cover/filename.pdf
filename.pdf sits in the folder 'cover' inside the HTMLResources folder before zipping.
This works when I test it local, and it has worked online some days ago in a previous release of the folio.
But since this morning I always get this error:
"The requested url was not found an this server." (-1100)
I've checked everything twice and the online Folio Producer tells the HTMLResources.zip is uploaded
Any ideas what could be wrong ? How to solve this ?
Thanx in advance,
Herman Belgy
