Corecenter caused weird problems

I just installed Corecenter and it caused a weird problem. It flashed on my screen and then went right into the tray. Then I closed it and tried to shut my system down. I couldn't. Everytime I tried to hit shut down the menue would pop up and go back over and over again. I had to manually hit the switch to shut it down. I've removed it and now everything is fine. I was using the latest version as well

System restore is a good thing .
I use it all the time uninstalling crappy apps/driver i try out
making a restore point before .
Much better way than to trust crappy programmers uninstall routine which leave leftovers most of the time ,both files and registry entrys .
Agree with corecenter , i give it most uglybuggy award application made in 2004 .
i only use it to set a permanent rpm on chipset fan & cpu fan and forget about it deleteing all desktop shortcuts and autostart (but have it installed incase i need fan setting again after cmos reset or something)

Itunes update causing weird problem for apple tv streaming songs

In itunes 10.5 when I choose apple tv as the external speaker and send songs through it plays the song and displays the cover of the album, title, song, name, and artist on the tv screen. When I updated to 10.5.1 it does the same except that after the first song the cd cover is one behind what is playing. For the sake of clarity, say I start the streaming songs on random play. The first three songs might be "Misty" by Kate Bush, "Rolling Along" by Lucinda Williams, and then "The Foggy Foggy Dew" by Greg Brown. When the first song plays it will be correct. "Misty" will be playing, Kate Bush will be displayed as the artist and the cover of the Kate Bush album will be showing. But when the next song comes on it will be playing "Rolling Along", Lucinda Williams will be displayed as the artist but the Kate Bush album cover will be displayed. Then the next song comes on "The Foggy Foggy Dew" will be playing, Greg Brown will be displayed as the artist but the Lucinda Wililams cover will be displayed. And so on.
I've experimented with it and feel certain it is the itunes update. I still have version 10.5 on my laptop and that is working normally. It is only the computer that I updated to 10.5.1 on that his having this weird thing occur.
Any ideas?

I have the exact same problem. Thanks for describing it so accurately. My Apple TV underwent a software update last evening, but the problem remains. Will be anxious to know when a fix has been applied.

Weird problem involving my external hard drive - help please!

I recently got a formac mini 120 gb firewire hard drive, which had been working fine with my g4 quicksliver.
i then went to a friends (g5 machine) with my drive and he put some data on it - bought it back to mine and managed to re connect the drive and take the data - no problem - very happy.
I recently gave my drive to another friend using a g5 and when it came back, nothing - i don't get the drive symbol appearing. turned the comp on and off many times and tried re-connecting etc still no drive appearing.
Then i took the drive to my friend with a mac lap top power book. connected there - working fine. Baffling. was happy that my data can still be accessed.
I know it's not the firewire cable because i can get power to the drive - i can see the red light at the fron on.
Can anyone help with this weird problem?
Thanks

Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work!
First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours might be the 10.4.10 Combo update. I have no idea since you did not fill out your specs. fully when you signed in to this site. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system. This link is for PPC Macs not Intel Macs.
If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good! Also, here is Apple doc.#88338 on getting FireWire to work.
Good Luck!
Cheers!

Weird problems with OSX Tiger

I'm with a weird problem with my OS Tiger. I have a G4/400 AGP Graphics with a Fastmac 1.5GHz processor upgrade, 1 GB RAM, 128MB video card, USB 2.0 card and a Sonnet serial ATA card. I have two HDs: one of 80GB and another one with 250GB (serial ATA) connected to the serial ATA card.
I have installed OS X Tiger in this serial ATA HD. Some weird things are happening since then. Sometimes when I shutdown my Mac, the delay is too long, all the icons disappear and the spinning wheel cursor remains in the screen for a long time until the Mac shuts down.
Sometimes when I try to open some applications, the same thing happens, the delay is long. And it happens too when I try to quit some applications. The sintom doesn't follow a rule - sometimes happen and other times it don't happen. And when I hit optioncommandesc to force quit, the application appears in the list as 'not responding', and even when I force quit it doesn't quit at all.
I already have checked the disk permissions, I have runned MacJanitor, but the problem is still there.
Any idea?

Hello! Long delays are often caused by corrupt disk directories. I'd first boot from the install Tiger disc and run the repair disk routine and then repair permissions AFTER rebooting from the hard drive. Other than that I'd get Diskwarrior to keep the directories in good shape. Tom

StarForce GF FX 5700: weird problem

Since I bought this geforce I used the 52.14 drivers from MSI. After having troubla with a game, I had to update my drivers. After installing the 56.72 ForceWare-drivres from nVidia, I had a quite weird problem.
After booting my PC, I started Battlefield Vietnam, and got this: The menu
in-game (normally it's even worse)
I tried a few other games, but they all had the same problem.
I rebooted, restarted BF:V and everything was normal again.
But, with those newer drivers, I had the same thing every day. If I worked in Windows too long, I had to reboot before I could play my games (descent).
A few weeks later someone told me that the weird colors where caused by overheats.
Down-clocking (starting from the standards, I never over-clocked the card) didn't solve my problem. Then I realized that everything worked perfect with the 52.14-drivers. I re-installed the drivers from the disc (52.14), and yes, my problem didn't exist any longer.
The problem is gone (by using the 52.14), but I can't update my drivers, which is necessary to play certain games, without having to reboot to play.

i put a post up about my problem with my fx5700 and bf1942 earlier, but no one has responded as of yet. the 1st screen that was posted (all red) thats EXACTLY how my screen looks. i've tried the drivers that came with the card (dont remember the version off the top of my head) and the latest drivers both showing the red screen. did anyone come up with a resolution for this situation?

Really weird problem -- won't download mail from one sender

I'm having a really weird problem. Apple Mail won't retrieve mail from my Gmail account via POP3 from one sender only. All other mail is downloaded normally, except from a particular sender. What could be causing this? Thanks.

I am trying to remember and research something about the Junk filter and Gmail accounts. Have you checked in your Junk mailbox, if Junk in enabled and there is a separate Junk mailbox?
If you click on my name to the left, and look in the bio line of the resulting Profile, you will find an email address you can reach me with. If you email me at that address, I will send you a Gmail address that your sender can test sending a message to me at my Gmail account.

Weird Problem in LiveCycle

Hello All ,
I am facing a weird problem in LiveCycle.In a form I did some script changes , saved it , and tested the form,it was ok. But After closing the form if I again reopens the form to do some script changes I am not able to find the script in any of the events. But then I tested the form , it worked perfectly. But if it's working then where are the scripts ?Has anybody faced this problem before ?
Thanks,
Bibhu.

That's odd. We've identified a bug in 9.0, which causes LC Designer to arbitrarily wipe scripts. It usually happens after a few hours of intensive form constructing. A restart of LC Designer solves the problem temporarily. Other than that the bug is really hard to reproduce. We've discovered that if you launch Acrobat Pro before LC Designer (so that PDF Previews are viewed in Pro instead of Reader), the bug goes away.
A guess would be that it is related to the way Designer rewrites the xdp (xml) tree, mixing nodes together. At least it's a viable conclusion considering Designer deletes the wrong node when deleting meta data (Form Properties->Variables->Minus symbol). There are also occasions on which, if you change the script of default buttons (the ones having tags like <?templateDesigner isPrintObject true?>), Designer wipes the entire script.

Weird problem: different layer sizes

This is not the first time I encountered this problem but here it goes again:
I have copied one layer several times and applied different filters. I turned on fixed resolution and had temporarily grouped and ungrouped three of the layers. When I added a fourth one and tried to export, the last one appears slightly bigger and off centre... Any explanation for this.
I solved the problem by importing the whole thing into FCE and exporting the movie there - just interested what causes this weirdness...

See this thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3905911#3905911
"There is an issue with Encore layer breaks so most probably this is what is causing the problem.In some cases Encore places an extra chapter on the timeline at the place where the layer break occurs.This causes subsequent chapters to be incremented by 1."
The original poster in that thread fixed the problem (which may not be precisely your problem) by putting the manual layer break on one of his chapters.

Weird problem with system

I have a K8N platinum and i seem so be having some weird problems. A lot of the time it is having problems reading certain disks. for instance I once installed Rome total war on my system and it ran fine. i then had to reinstall windows due to some SP2 causing my system to go haywire when i reloaded windows got the latest driver and stuff when i tried reload teh rome game it was telling that the files onteh disk might be corrupt as it was reading them correctly. after much chasing about with activision and installing differnt drivers i finally got it working again ( i think by dowlnloading the nforce drivers from MSI rather than Nvid) i Recently got a new 200 gig HD and decided to reinstall windows on that get a fresh copy of SP2 on disk(third attempt at loading that nighhtmare update every other time has caused sys probs)
again im back to problems reading the cd same as before but getting the drivers from MSI this time hasnt helped as these were the first i tried.
am currently using nforce 5.10 and getting nowhere
any had or heard of anything similar?

Why people call it MSI drivers is beyond my knowledge .
5.03 is a NVIDIA driverpackage for NF3_CK8S with some drivers removed , 5.10 is a later NVIDIA driverpackage and unified for nf3 250 chipsets and backwards to nf2 .
The IDE drivers is the same in both 5.03 and 5.10 so you get no difference regarding your problem altering between theese .
5.03 has an older gart driver and doesn't include nv-audio drivers , rest is the same .
If you have problems with CD , revert the controller to "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE controller" for the PATA controller .
Leave the SATA controller with "Nvidia nForce3 250 Serial ATA Controller (2.6) .
Revert only the PATA controller which CDROMs use back to the microsoft standard ide one through device manager
Ide ATA/ATAPI controllers - Nvidia nForce3 Parallel ata controller - properties - driver-tab - Update driver - install from a list .. - don't search - choose :Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE controller -apply .
Run the CDROM alone one one of the two ide ports as master . And harddisk(s) if you have any PATA HD's on the other one .
And don't use the cheapo red MSI ide cable .

Weird Problem with X6, help please!

I have got this weird problem with my nokia X6, it's display shows lines and merged colors when turned on. It started happening after I got my Nokia X6 fixed for broken screen, 15 days later after getting it fixed it started showing such display. I figured out somehow to unlock my phone while in such display horror and figured that opening a heavy app like OVI store brings back mobiles display. I don't want to send same people my mobile again. Just want to know what can be done to fix this problem. PLease Help!

Yeah, it was a nokia care center. Anyway I fixed the problem luckily. It just needed some updates. I never thought not updating can cause this problem.

Weird problem with my Zen16gb

Yesterday I turned on my Zen6gb and like 80% of the album art was missing and...my headphones sounded bad, like the jack or the headphones were damaged. Bu then I reset it and it started to rebuild the library. after that all the album art were Ok as always and the sound problem was gone, just like that, and my headphones are good quality (WESC) and haven't been experienced any damage, so... This is the first time that this has ever happened to me with a mp3 player, so weird that the sound issue wasn't from the jack nor from the headphones, from the description seems like some intern hardware thing, dont you think?. any thoughts? much appreciated

!Re: Weird problem with my Zen6gbHello Sebastian,
Me thinks that problem with missing album art is caused by some sort of corruption on the player. I don't think it's a hardware thing but rather corrupt file causing the device to act abnormally. A Clean Up on your ZEN should elliminate corrupted data on the file system and database files. I do this once in a while specially if I'm transferring huge files to my device. Never heard of headphone sounding bad though and was fixed after a reset...:smileyindifferent:

Weird Problem with FSB setting

Hi all,
I've just come across a weird problem with FSB setting.
If I set FSB to 229 my machine runs @ 1.6Ghz only.
When I set to 230 it runs @ 3.2Ghz (as it should).
Any ideas what could be causing this?
Thanks

Apple Banned me, because of a very weird problem with my "Factory Unlocked"

Hi Everybody! Im having a very weird problem with my unlocked iphone 4.
First of all, i would like to apologize because of my english, is not very good. My native language is Spanish.
Well.. Im from Mexico, and here we can buy the iphone Unlocked on the Apple Online Store.
Here's my problem. Apple has exchanged my iphone 3 times.
I returned the iphone the first time because the screen was totally yellowish, other than that everything was working great!, that was by the end of September.
On October 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then a bigger problem started .
Before i continue, let me give you this information: here in Mexico we have basically 3 cell phone companies
1.- Telcel
2.- Movistar
3.- Unefon
OK, now on october 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then procced to activate via itunes using my UNEFON sim card (microsim).
And every time i tried to activate it, only got this message onscreen:
http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s2/jorgelomeli/Screenshot2010-10-29at24915PM. png
I though something was wrong with my brand new factory unlocked iphone 4.
I have 4 more simcards from my brothers (they all had iphone 4 too)
I tried telcel sim card, and i could activate my iphone. Then i insterted the Movistar microsim, and it worked too!! But then when i put the Unefon sim, the itunes logo inmediatly appears on the screen asking to activate on itunes, and when i tried that, the only response i got was the image above saying " The Simcard inserted on this iphone does not appear to be supported"
Weird thing here is, that, when i put my Unefon sim card on my brothers iphone 4, it worked great! on all of them, internet 3g, phone, wireless , evrything!
I called apple support, and they exchange the iphone for another one.
I recieved the third iphone on October 29. Last friday. and guess what? SAME PROBLEM! different serial number, same week production (week 42) but exactly the same message on itunes.
Very, very frustrated, i called apple again, and after 1 hour with thechnical support, they told me " We are sorry, but we can only offer you, your money back, NO MORE EXCHANGES FOR YOU"
I said why?... i dont want my money back! i want an UNLOCKED iphone!, but they refuse to give me another iphone.
When i asked techincal support, why my unefon sim card worked great on all three of my brothers iphone but not on mine, he just told me, "I really dont know, i guess they just got lucky" ****, this answer put all my trust i had on apple products for years, right on the garbage.
Since they refused to give me another iphone, i accepted my money back, and inmediatly after i finished the call, i asked my brother to buy me one more time an iphone 4 using his name, and his credit card. Now i have to wait until November 8-12 to recieve my new iphone, hoping this time i get a REAL UNLOCKED iphone, and not a partially unlocked iphone.
btw. i even went to Unefon costumer service and bought a new prepiad line, with a new microsim, just to be 100% sure that this problem is not because of the sim. And again didnt worked on my iphone, but it worked on any of my brothers iphone4.
Serial numbers of the 3 iphones:
79039C0U* (this one worked great with Unefon, only problem was yellow screen)
85042GR4*
81042FJB*
What do you suggest me? any info would be really aprecciated
FYI i also restore 4 times the last iphone and nothing seemed to work, i use 3 different computers, Macbook Pro, iMac, and an Hp with Windows 7, and the same message on all three computers.
Wierd thing also, one of my brothers bougth an iphone 4 this last week too, but he bought the 16Gb not the 32Gb. His iphone production week is 42 also! and when i put my Unefon sim in his iphone works great!
I dont know what else i can do, I just need to have faith that my new iphone coming this november will be real unlocked, but what if i'll recieve an iphone and then the same problem?? time for android? just kidding really guys, what can i do? anyone with similar problem like me? i dont wanna use Telcel or Movistar, i wanna use Unefon, and thats why i bought an Unlocked iphone
btw: jailbreak is not a solution for me, because i always like to use legal software on all my apple products, and because of the warranty.

According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937, there are two official carriers in Mexico (Movistar and Telcel) and neither carrier offers an unlocked phone.

Dual Monitor Causing System Problems?

Hi, I'm new to this site, so I hope this is where I ask this question! My design group switched to G5/Cinema Display screen from old g4 setups mid 2005. I retained my Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2020u monitor to use as a secondary display for pallettes, extra files, etc. It's hooked up using a dvi-vga adapter.
My new G5 had hiccups from the start, but around March 2006 I started getting Kernel Panics almost every week, serious slow-downs, Adobe app crashes, etc. It got to the point that I was troubleshooting every week, but could never put a finger on exactly what was happening. IT archive-installed 10.4.4 after we discovered the system had been updated to 10.4.6 and we thought that would solve the problem. While that solved the issues that were relevant to 10.4.6 glitches, it didn't fix everything and little, persistent problems remained, including stalls, crashes and kernel panics. After removing suspect fonts, wallpaper, icons, updating software, repairing permissions, tossing preferences, and other troubleshooting over and over, we (I.T.) finally switched my cpu to another one in the department using data migration (just my user information, not software or other files). Still the same hiccups and even new glitches appeared (InDesign crashing on spellcheck, Photoshop not granting me access to save changes to files, etc.), including two more Kernel panics (within 5 minutes of each other) in the two weeks since we switched hardware. More troubleshooting fixed the app-specific problems, but there are still the persistent annoyances occurring.
I again did all the troubleshooting mentioned above and finally someone mentioned that I'm the only designer in our group using a dual display set-up. Could there be validity to the non-cinema display monitor causing these problems and if so, what is the solution? I've disconnected the second monitor for now, but would love to have it back. Also, we work with a server (for instance, the kernel panics only happen when I try to place a file from the server into InDesign CS2 using the place command, so there's another avenue to go down if the monitor isn't the issue.)Thanks!

I only just disconnected the monitor, so it will take time to tell if that's a factor. As for the kernel panics, although it's always the same scenario (placing images from server through InDesign) they happen very randomly; it's not happening every single time I place a file. In fact, I just placed an image on the server into an ID doc I have on my desktop, no problem. So I can't say for sure that it has happened when working from my desktop or only when working on the server.

Firefox 5.0 is supposed to have a separaret Twitter tab, but I noticed today that that tab is missing. What is causing this problem?

Firefox version 5.0 has a separate Twitter tab built into this web browser. However, today I have been having problems with launching the Firefox browser. An error message appears, after attempting to launch the browser, which states that the Firefox browser is already running, and that the process needs to be closed or that the computer needs to be restarted. After restarting my computer and launching the Firefox browser, I noticed that the built-in Twitter tab ( near the upper left-hand corner of the browser ) was missing. What is causing these problems?

I'm pretty sure that Firefox version 5.0 has a built-in Twitter tab. Whatever the case may be, I downloaded Firefox version 5.0.1 this morning. I learned that if you right-click on a tab, that a menu box will appear on the screen. One of the options in that menu box is "Pin as App Tab." If I go to the http://twitter.com web site, and then right-click on the corresponding Twitter tab, and then select "Pin as App Tab," then a small Twitter tab will appear to the right of the orange-and-white "Firefox" tab ( in the upper left-hand corner of the Firefox web browser screen ). Then I can click on that Twitter tab and go directly to the http://twitter.com web site. However, when I exit the Firefox version 5.0.1 web browser, and then immediately re-launch it, the separate Twitter tab is gone. Is there any way, within Firefox version 5.0.1, that I can make the separate Twitter tab permanent after selecting "Pin as App Tab"? Thank you for your assistance regarding this matter.
