Corrupted library points to /usr/share/emacs/...

Advice on fixing a corrupted iTunes Library would be appreciated. The symptoms are invalid links to certain files, such as:
file: "TED Sirena Huang"
link: iBook/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/net/webjump.el
file: AC: Ray Kurzweil
link: iBook/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/obsolete/auto-show.el
BTW, the URL of an Applescript that will find [or make a playlist of] all missing or invalid files would be appreciated. It is surely on dougscripts.com but I've not yet devisted the proper query.

Has anyone seen this type of library corruption before? It is a bit scary to have iTunes linking into System files - where only permissions prevents a user from accidental deletions.

How to fix CUPS corrupted (Dyld Error Message:   Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libcups.2.dylib)?

Hello,
After trying to change my printer settings on CUPS administrator area to allow to share my wirelless printer to my VirtualBox environment (somehow virtualbox doesn't detect my wirelless printer) I notice that this area stop to work. After it I try to update the CUPS by installing a new version. I admint that I am a newby in unix environment and I downloaded the CUPS v1.6.1 and installed through the terminal,
./configure
sudo make
make install
After restarting apple site no longer opened like also my home page. Other programs also stopped working and always warn about the same error described bellow. I posted my last try which was reinstall my system Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6.8). Does anyone deal with this problem before? How can I reinstall at least the operation system or just fixing this library will solve the problem?
Note: The reason of using virtualbox is that I need to use a prescribed software that only works in windows environment and since I need to make work in other places the wireless printing is the only viable way to do this.

Here is another option.
I had the same problem with my Mac OSX System 10.8.4 after update cups from 1.6.2 to 1.6.3.
I have a MacBookPro with the same system version and copy the libcups.2.dylib file form /usr/lib/ then replace the error file in my other Mac.
1. Install cups 1.6.2 again
2. Replace the file libcups.2.dylib in /usr/lib/ directory with this one libcups.2.dylib
Note: I added the link if you dont have an other mac in the same version available.
This works for me.

Ever since I upgrade to Maverick I keep getting this error. Any have an idea. Its really messing up my computer.

Hi,
Your doing what and when this appears would be useful.
It also looks like it has extra spaces dotted about in this copy of the info.
There appear to be several spaces before some of the forward slashes that are not expected.
On the other hand it could be several different lines of a report as when I look ReportCrash is an Executable item and cannot be opened further.

/usr/lib/dyld /private/var/db/dyld/dyld_shared_cache_x86_64 /d
Did it read like the above originally ?
It would appear that Report Crash is triggered and it might have something do do with something in Launch Services but then again they might not be related other than an app reporting it is using those two things .

"Permissions differ on usr/share/derby"

Hi,
After some strange behavior on my MacPro I verified disk permissions and got:
Permissions differ on "usr/share/derby" should be drwxr-xr-x, they are lrwxr-xr-x
and
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Repair disk permissions does not fix the problem.
Any advice aside from reinstalling Snow Leopard?
Thank you.

The “l” in lrwxr-xr-x stands for “link” and just means that the corresponding file is an alias file, whereas “d” in drwxr-xr-x stands for “directory” and means it's a folder. In Mac OS X 10.6.3, the /usr/share/derby file is an alias to the /usr/share/java/derby-10.5.1.1 folder, however both actually have the same read/write permissions (rwxr-xr-x).

What are share point server 2013 & Share point Designer 2013 & Office 365 & Yammer & Share point 2013 & Windows server 2008 server & Windows Server 2012 Server Data Center?

I need some clarifications.
What are share point server 2013 & Share point Designer 2013 & Office 365 & Yammer & Share point 2013 & Windows server 2008 server & Windows Server 2012 Server Data Center? How each them are related in collaboration system?
Is Share point server 2013 and Share pointer Designer 2013 available in 32bit version? If not, then how to use it in 32 bit machine by using any VMs?
Thanks
Senthil

SharePoint Server 2013:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-sharepoint-collaboration-software-FX103479517.aspx
SharePoint Designer 2013:
Designer is used to develop SharePoint pages using HTML/CSS/JS as well as SharePoint Designer Workflows
Yammer:
https://about.yammer.com/
Windows Server is Windows, but the Server OS. SharePoint runs on top of supported Windows Servers editions (see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485.aspx).
SharePoint Server is 64-bit only (trial:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/hh973397.aspx), although Designer does have a 32-bit edition (full product:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35491).
You will need the capability to run 64bit VMs. Minimum recommended all-in-one VM for SharePoint is to allocate 24GB of RAM, but you can get away with as little as 12GB (I wouldn't go below that). Because of this, it generally rules out 32bit OSes as a virtual
machine host.

TV Show download problem with library on a network share

My local drive has 100GB disk space available. I have my iTunes library configured to be on a network share which happens to be on a NAS (network attached storage) drive. My NAS drive has over 600GB disk space available. When I try to download a TV Show (Battlestar Galactica) I get an error which says that:
"The disk you are attempting to use is full"
This is nowhere near true. I tried several times, then switched my iTunes library to point to my local drive, and the download worked. Does iTunes have a problem with a library on a network share?
Help!
Thanks,
Brad

Not easy because in order to open just one library file you would have to be running the same version of iTunes on all computers which would be limited to the lowest version supported by your computers (the G3). Try to open a iTunes 10 library with 9.2.1 and it will refuse. This in turn might not support your equipment. Even if you can do this you would have to make sure only one copy of iTunes was running because the library file cannot be opened by multiple copies of iTunes at the same time.

Another corrupted library

The other thread was getting long in the tooth and I have some different situations.
I have installed iPhoto 09 on 4 different macs now with 3 out of 4 ending up with some level of corrupted library. All of the thumbnails appear okay. There are no warnings when started and nothing is obviously wrong until the thumbnail is double-clicked and the big grey exclamation point comes up. There is no obvious correlation that I can tell. The 20" has corrupted photos all through out the events, but never an entire event whereas the Macbook has just one event corrupted, but all of the photos. I have tried the command-option rebuild on all of them and only recovered 1 picture on the 24" iMac. All have Leopard 10.5.6 and all of the libraries are on the local hard disk.
Types and results:
iMac 20" core 2 duo - 200 photo library - 20 corrupted
iMac 24" core 2 duo - 300 photo library - 2 corrupted
iMac 20" core 2 duo - 100 photo library - none corrupted
Macbook core 2 duo - 70 photo library - 6 corrupted
iMac G5 - 2500 photos - too scared to install iPhoto 09 !!
Would love to know what is going on. I played with Faces on the uncorrupted iMac and love it.
Thanks.......

Possibly you did not hear from anyone because you did not ask a question nor did you provide any information that might let someone who knows ONLY what you put in your message even make a wild stab at telling you what is going on
What are you doing on these Macs and how are you accessing the photos in the Iphoto libraries?

ITunes Corrupted Library/Crash Exception: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (0x0002)

iTunes gave an error of the effect "corrupted library", and said it created a backup/modified version.
OK, all songs still listed and everything seemed OK.
The next time I started up iTunes (version 7.3.2) it gave a
Exception: EXCBADINSTRUCTION (0x0002)
failure. Now it ALWAYS fails on startup in this manner.
(full crashdump at bottom)
I've renamed ~/Music/iTunes and ~/Library/iTunes, and deleted ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes*.plist
I've manually reinstalled installed 7.3.2.
I've applied the version update to 7.4, which tossed up the new EULA properly and then immeditely started crashing.
Are there ANY other iTunes data files that I should try removing? Any other suggestions? I'd be perfectly willing to nuke my entire music collection (I have a backup dir) if it would restore iTunes, as I need it to calendar sync to my iPod.
Other suggestions?

Drag the iTunes Library and iTunes XML files out of the iTunes folder and relaunch iTunes. If it launches correct then, try the Add To Library command, select your iTunes Music folder, and see if it will successfully add the tracks and then function correctly. If it still fails to launch, try logging into Mac OS X as another user (create one for testing if necessary) and see if iTunes will launch successfully there; that will tell us if it's a problem with iTunes or Mac OS X overall or a problem with your normal user.
Hope this helps.

/usr/share/locale

Having been looking round Disk Usage Analyser on Gnome I have found that /usr/share/locale uses up just shy of 200mb. (I know it's not much in the grand scheme of things but it just bothers me) Since I have set everything up for en_GB is it safe to go ahead and delete all of the other languages? I'm the only one who uses this comp so I know I dont need the rest of them. Reason I ask is that I have got my arch setup just perfect with everything I need and nothing else, it has taken a while to get to this point and dont want eveything to go tits up by deleting these files without asking.
Thanks

Should be fine.
I just deleted everything excpt for the en_* ones in mine and rebooted. So far no issues... Good idea by the way.

/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse vs eclipse

Any one knows the actual difference between the two? When I try to launch eclipse from menu or by typing
/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse
it hangs on code completion. But
eclipse
from command line or quick launch works

Hi, I did some research, it turns out if I launch by typing
/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse
I've got doubled entry
/usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.13
in
java.library.path
which leads to the freeze. How will
java.library.path
be determined? I have only one firefox installed.

Missing files - corrupt library after upgrade to 11.1.4

I updated iTunes to 11.1.4, and after launching, it looked like it was updating my library as it's done in the past. However, this time, after an hour I realized it had not yet completed, and a dialogue box asking about creating an iTunes U playlist was on the screen. I tried to do so, but it just kept repeating. So finally I stopped it, and now I have an file marked iTunes library (damaged) and an incomplete library. I am missing thousands of songs compared to the last .itl I have in Previous iTunes Libraries.
I thought when iTunes did an upgrade to the library it was supposed to make a backup? If so, and I did the upgrade yesterday, why is the most recent file in Previous iTunes Libraries dated from four months ago?
How can I repair the damaged .itl file, as the one iTunes is using now as, as I mentioned, missing thousands of songs now.
Is there any sort of script or utility I can use to figure out exactly which files are missing from the current .itl in my library?
Thanks in advance.

I thought when iTunes did an upgrade to the library it was supposed to make a backup? If so, and I did the upgrade yesterday, why is the most recent file in Previous iTunes Libraries dated from four months ago?
No, you need to do the backup as part of regular computer maintenance and before you do any software upgrades. iTunes moves the old library into the previous library area but perhaps your update failed before it did that.
How can I repair the damaged .itl file, as the one iTunes is using now as, as I mentioned, missing thousands of songs now.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20401436 - turingtest2 11/2012 post on rebuilding empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash from previous iTunes library file.
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
Is there any sort of script or utility I can use to figure out exactly which files are missing from the current .itl in my library?
Yes, there's one on the Dougscripts web site that will crawl through a library. In yur case it's probably just as easy to drag the whole iTunes media folder to Automatically Add to iTunes. Anything already in the library it will ignore. Anything not there it will add.

Hi,
Try these 3 solutions
1. Did you start vncserver services as:
service vncserver start
2.Check that port 5901 has not been blocked by a firewall:
# nc -vz localhost 5901
You should get a connection and a termination. If you get an error, fix the firewall.
3. service iptables stop
Hope This Helps

IMac Computer using 10.7.5, running iTunes 11.1.5, and using an iPad 2 with os 7.1 . I have over 300 movies in my library and when I share using video on the iPad, the titles covers are all on the wrong movies. How do I fix this?

Hi Michael,
I'm glad iTunes is working now! If you want to locate iTunes plug-ins on your computer, you can find them in the following locations (you may not have the iTunes Plug-ins folder if you do not have plug-ins):
Mac:
/Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
One thing I also wanted to mention is that the "Users/username/Library" is hidden in Lion and Mountain Lion. You can access it using these steps:
OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?
The Library folder contains files used by OS X and your apps, including your personal fonts and preferences. The Library folder is hidden. If you need to open it, make sure you are in the Finder, hold down the Option key, and then choose Go > Library.
You can find the full article here:

All the best,

Glibc - /usr/share/info/dir is already in the filesystem

Hello,
I just build glibc from abs with debugging support and when trying to install it via pacman I get conflicting files error: "/usr/share/info/dir is already in the filesystem". Any ideas?

/usr/share/info/dir makes part of the info documentation system. Packages must add entries to this file and not overwrite it, so your package need to be fixed. You can delete the dir file from the package (do not overwrite the system file or you will destroy the info system); you just won't have a title entry in the info page (the menu displayed when you type info will not have the entry corresponding to your package). You can also fix it properly with the install-info command (but I do not know this package, so I do not know exactly what you have to install).
I suggest you to report the problem it in a comment in the AUR.

Acroread 9.1.0 reads the full directory tree /usr/share/fonts

Hi,
I was wondering why the startup time of acroread is that high on my system (Debian 5.0). I have found out using strace that acroread reads the full content of the /usr/share/fonts/ directory tree (more than 4000 files) during startup in a quite inefficient way.
First question: why does it read /usr/share/fonts during startup at all and is there a way to disable that behaviour?
Second question follows: the ext3 requires that an application reading the full content of a directory should sort the file list numerically by inode number before opening the files. It is explained in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417 why the application should be fixed and not the kernel. Can acroread be changed to qsort() the file list between the calls of readdir() and open()?
Cheers,
Torsten

Hello Torsten,
Thanks for reporting the issue. Could you please let us know if you are opening acroread with a file(either by double clicking on it or giving it as a parameter to acroread). If yes, could you please see if launch time is still high when you do not open a file(launch acroread by clicking on the Desktop icon or launch it from console). Also, it would be helpful if you can mail the strace output to sanika at adobe dot com.
As for reading the location, it is one of the standard font locations mentioned in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. If you do not want acroread to use these fonts, you can set ACRO_DISABLE_FONT_CONFIG to 1 on console.
If you do not want to set this variable every time you launch reader, you can search for "ACRO_DISABLE_FONT_CONFIG" in the launch script, uncomment the relevant section and save the script.
However, I should warn you that Reader would not be able to use these fonts to display PDFs(substitute fonts would be used instead).
Sincerely,
Sanika
