Crashed twice since recent upgrade.

Ever since I upgraded to 6.0.2 I have been having trouble. If any other app is open and iTunes starts to update podcasts my computer freezes. Twice now my Library database file has been damaged, the first time iTunes was able to recover itself, and create a new file, but this time it collapsed, and I am going to have to drag and drop from my hard drive.
Any advice?
Thanks.

Underneath I have selected Music and Radio is an option between Videos and Match at the top on the right. The other reason it might not show up is in Preference, Parental you have the Radio box ticked to disable it. I have attached 2 screenshots both of itunes 11 in its 2 looks

  • Finder crashes repeatedly since ML upgrade

    Since upgrading to ML Finder is constantly crashing. If I click the icon or try to open a window any other way, the finder bar comes up across the top briefly and then disappears. I have tried repairing permissions and doing a safe boot, which seemed to help for a short while. I can't keep restarting every time this problem comes up, it's a drag.
    Since the upgrade Chrome has also had problems loading Flash intermittently.
    Anyone else had similar problems or have a fix?

    I have a late 2008 Mac Book Pro (2.66 Core 2 Duo) and had the same problem. Additionally I have replaced my HDD with a Crucial M4 and my CD-RW with an OCZ Vertex2 using an optibay.
    The fix in My case was the Firmware upgrade of the Crucial M4 SSD from Rev 000F to 010G.
    The Vertex 2 also got an upgrade to version 1.37
    I keep my OS on the Crucial M4 and my Home on the OCZ.
    Hope this helps someone.
    Looks like Apple, in the 10.8.2 Combo changed some drivers for the SSDs and firmware upgrade is mandatory on the nonsuported SSDs.
    Thank you.

  • Nothing but problems since recent upgrade to Infin...

    I recently upgraded to BT Infinity. Previously I had a wireless connection throughout the house. Since the upgrade I have had quite a lot of problems. The hub is now in a different room than with the previous BB. I found that;
    1) Wireless not available in a few rooms
    2) Internet connection keeps switching off on laptop + PC
     I purchased a booster as advised by BT. This helps at times but then I realized that not all my issues were down to the wireless connection. I realize many different devices can interfere with the connection but prior to Infinity everything was fine. This is the only change in my house. There has been no new electrical devices.
    Now the following happens;
    a) Internet connection keeps going down on various devices - particularly at 11pm at night
    b) At times I cannot even connect with an ethernet cable from hub to laptop
    c) At times speedtest shows poor results
    I've had various ideas suggested by the BT employee who is attached to my case, unfortunately nothing has improved the situation and I am getting extremely frustrated with the problem. The following has been done;
    1) My hub has been replaced
    2) Channels reset
    3) Engineer has tried to remotely fix problem and also replaced some part of copper wire leading into house
    BT have recently sent me 2 powerline adaptors to try and set my hub away from the openreach box in the room it was in previously as I had no problems prior to the upgrade. Unfortunatelly BT have been unable to talk me through this and obtain a broadband connection. The BT employee is trying to set it up differently from the conventional way which he said has worked for customers before. I am awaiting the original employee to telephone me back in a few days as he is off work and his colleagues are not sure of the set up.
    I am also awaiting yet another Openreach engineer to call in a few days if the problem cannot be resolved.
    Initially for the first few weeks it was a complete nightmare contacting BT and having to keep repeating my story and having various employees reset channels and work their way through a set script. However recently a set person seems to have been assigned to this case and has been very dilligently phoning me and trying to resolve the problem. This is the only thing that has kept me sane as I was getting so annoyed by having to phone and take potluck with their general phone number.
    I would be pleased to hear from anyone with similar problems or suggestions to resolve this.
    Many thanks.

  • Since recent upgrade, can not download from YouTube

    Before the most recent upgrade to Firefox 3.6.8 two weeks ago, everything worked fine with this program. My issue is, I can not copy and paste a URL address from You Tube and download it into a program called Audio Editor. After the upgrade, when I copy and paste the URL address and start to download, there is no download. The message No File Downloaded, please try again. It is like there is nothing there. It worked great for a couple of months.
    Is there a setting in the new version of Firefox that prevents me from copying, pasting and downloading from You Tube?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == after upgrading Firefox 2 weeks ago to 3.6.8

    Hello Tad.
    Can you be more clear about your issue. What I understand from your post is that you "can not copy and paste a URL address from You Tube and download it into a program called Audio Editor". Does this mean that you cannot paste the URL you copy? Or does this mean that Audio Editor is not recognizing the URL?
    Also, this Audio Editor you speak off is not developed by Mozilla, so if it's just that it's not working correctly, you need to contact its author for support.

  • Cannot access my google calendar since recent upgrade

    I operate an iMac. OS 10.6.8. I have used FIREFOX successfully for years. I have placed my google calendar in Firefox--perfect performance even to my Palm Pre Plus. I upgraded FIREFOX to version 6.0.2. TROUBLE! I cannot access my calendar since the upgrade. If I select the icon for FIREFOX, what I see on my screen is:/Screen shot 2011-09-09 at 9.18.03 PM.png--or, LOADING, For slow connections, load read-only view. When I select that, a long delay and I can only view the current month, nor the last month nor the next month nor the WEEKLY view, which is my favorite.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • Aperture 2.1.4 crashes shortly. Recently upgraded to SL.

    Hi. I'm sorry if this issue has been resolved in another post, I've been looking around but I haven't found a resolution.
    After upgrading to Snow Leopard, Aperture will begin to crash while I am browsing in a project. I was surprised to find that others have posted about Aperture crashing so I hope there is a solution.

  • OS X v.10.4.11 incredibly sluggish, crashing often after recent upgrades.

    About two months ago I upgraded my +15" Powerbook G4+'s stock-RAM from the factory issue 500-something KB card by swapping it out for *2GB of Kingston DDR2 SD RAM*. It was a quick, by the book swap. And almost immediately the computer was faster, less bogged down for usable memory, and could handle multiple applications with greater ease.
    BUT after a week or so I began getting this crash message (link is safe, just a screencap of error message): *http://i40.tinypic.com/sq175j.jpg*. +The computer would freeze and demand to be manually shut down and restarted+. Once it was turned back on, the computer would display a "Report Error Message" saying that OS X had unexpectedly crashed.
    My computer went out of warranty back in December, so I'm trying to troubleshoot this on my own. I'm not sure if the crashing is increasing in frequency or not, it certainly doesn't follow any recognizable pattern as far as when it crashes (as far as how many programs I'm running or how many processes I'm operating with). Usually I'm only using 30% of RAM, but the computer sounds likes it's working at 85-95%, getting incredibly hot and beginning to slow - then crashing.
    I've considered moving all of my files to my external HD and reinstalling OS X 4.11, I've also considered saving some $ and upgrading to 10.5.6 (Leopard). If anyone has any experience with this issue or something like it, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Northwarda, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    First question, how much free space do you have on your Hard Drive?
    Second, Boot off your Install Disk while holding down the *d key*, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT. Some models have a separate AHT CD.
    Thirdly...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
    Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
    If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
    If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.
    May even need to do an Archive and Install if you have room on the HD, but saves all your files and gives a new OS...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
    That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.
    If all the above fails, then it appears to be time for a relatively painless Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space and no Disk corruption, and is relatively quick & painless...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    Just be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings.

  • Problems charging since recent upgrade.

    I dont know which upgrade it was but the most recent today is march 24th 2011 my phone is new iphone 4.
    Tried many different charges phone works fine except not being read by itunes so isnt even recognised as a usb device either.
    Still the normal charger with plug should work. Dont want to reset and loose all my setup data like internet and calendar or videos and just tons of settings,.
    what can I do now to maybe help this, I have 13% power now ..

    Vodafone are going to replace it (but it wont be a new phone and im none too happy), I think it is coincidental to the software upgrade. For my mind I cannot see how software should engage with the charging of the unit as if there is no power no operating system or drivers could be loaded into memory as there is no power to do that and even if there is a chip with loaded stuff already on it then it needs power a secondary battery could perhaps run some rudimentary charging controls but I would think there is only one battery.
    Still seems like a hardware failure.

  • Xauth unknown command, WINE crashing X after recent upgrade

    I realize this isn't much information to go on.  What I'm looking for is some advice on how to proceed debugging this.  Where should I look next?
    When I run startx, I get
    xauth: (stdin):2: unknown command "ef33d0225485e7060dffee1ecb847468"
    It seems to load normally afterwards.  Everything seems to be fine, until I run a game in WINE.  At that point, the mouse cursor disappears entirely (both in and out of the WINE window) and X eventually freezes.  This does not happen every time, which makes this whole thing very frustrating.
    I'm using a NVIDIA card with proprietary drivers (updated with pacman).  Everything is up to date, the nvidia module is loaded in the kernel, and nouveau isn't installed.
    WINE does not output anything useful even with a 2>&1 |tee log.  The Xorg.0.log doesn't show any errors, save this:
    (II) NVIDIA(0): ACPI: failed to connect to the ACPI event daemon; the daemon
    (II) NVIDIA(0): may not be running or the "AcpidSocketPath" X
    (II) NVIDIA(0): configuration option may not be set correctly. When the
    (II) NVIDIA(0): ACPI event daemon is available, the NVIDIA X driver will
    (II) NVIDIA(0): try to use it to receive ACPI event notifications. For
    (II) NVIDIA(0): details, please see the "ConnectToAcpid" and
    (II) NVIDIA(0): "AcpidSocketPath" X configuration options in Appendix B: X
    (II) NVIDIA(0): Config Options in the README.

    I take the second part back.  The issue with X crashing with WINE still occurs intermittently.
    I'm noticing that .Xauthority is being given 2-3 entries shortly after login, often the same one twice.  Is this normal?
    Also, I went through errors.log and found some seemingly relevant lines.  This one is throughout (along with a similar one with 16 instead of 56):
    kernel: [ 626.673586] NVRM: Xid (0000:01:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000001 00000001
    This is everywhere as well:
    /usr/sbin/crond[875]: (CRON) INFO (Syslog will be used instead of sendmail.): No such file or directory
    And then there is this:
    udevd[282]: can not find '/lib/udev/rules.d/50-firmware.rules': No such file or directory
    udevd[282]: can not find '/lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules': No such file or directory

    udevd[282]: can not find '/lib/udev/rules.d/81-arch.rules': No such file or directory
    I know that the first error is related to nvidia, though I've been having trouble figuring out exactly what it means.  The second error seems irrelevant but I could be wrong.  The third concerns me, whether or not it's related to my problem with X.

  • Safari not opening pages since recent upgrade

    A few days back there was a software update message concerning airport.   I did the update and ever since Safari has been randomly failing to load pages.  It half loads the page and then just stops.   This happens most frequenty when I'm trying to access linked pages.   Once it stops I cannot attempt to reload the page without rebooting the computer.  What going on?  (10.8.4 on 2008  iMac)

    Are other browsers, such as Firefox, also affected? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?

  • I am having trouble using hotmail since recent upgrade.

    On June 15 after a mozilla upgrade I am able to sign in to my hotmail account but unable to open emails, or delete anything, or open folders etc. I click on something and it works a while and says done but nothing happens. What can be done? Also I can not find a basic way to contact mozilla to report this and get any help. If I sign in using explorer I can work the hotmail acct. just fine so it is definitely a firefox problem.

  • Since recent upgrade to win 8 from 7, HP printer will not accurately print from Photosmart 7.0.1. ?

    Is there an update to correct this?

    Seems like your question would be better in an HP forum than Adobe.  Photosmart is of course not an Adobe product.  Have you checked the HP site for driver updates for your particular set of hardware?
    You haven't been very specific; perhaps if you provide more info about specifically what you have and what you're seeing go wrong someone will be able to help you better.
    I don't have a suggestion for you beyond that, but this is for others considering Windows 8:  It's never good to upgrade to a brand new OS in the first weeks after its release.  An OS is more than just software from the manufacturer - it involves support from hardware vendors.  No matter how many preview versions the OS manufacturer has released, device driver perfection (printer, display, storage devices, motherboard) ALWAYS lags behind the OS release.
    Right now apparently there are a number of known problems with Windows 8:
    With display drivers (people not getting good GPU support with ATI cards in Normal and Advanced modes, for example).
    With printer drivers.
    With storage drivers (I've heard of troubles with RAID controllers, for example).
    In the professional realm there's an old adage, born from long experience:  Never upgrade to a new Windows version until Service Pack 1.
    With Windows 8 there is the additional consideration (for those who haven't yet taken the plunge):  Carefully consider whether Windows 8 adds any return on investment (ROI) that you actually need. 
    Microsoft has taken off in a new non-pro direction with Windows 8 and has actually DEGRADED the desktop experience (presumably to try to herd us all over into the Metro/Modern realm).  It may be that the best idea would be to continue to use Windows 7 and wait until Windows 9 (or whatever they call the next release) to re-evaluate upgrade options.

  • Since recent upgrade of OS X Safari  won't download a readable adobe document.  Is there a fix?

    I was notified to upgrade OS X to 10.8.5.  Part of the upgrade was adjustments to Safari.  Now when I download a document into Adobe format it will not open and gives an alert that it is not able to be opened because it is damaged.  Never happened before.  Does Safari need a fix?

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
