Date/time icon and other movable icons on menu bar cannot be loaded on startup,but it works if manually loaded

Strange things happened since my mbp 13' (MD-101) was upgraded to 10.8.4 ----------- time icon, battery icon,and language icon (these icons can be moved when held Command key and drag) cannot be loaded on startup, but they still can be loaded when you get into System Preferences and manually turn them on, as well as iStat Menus
However, some other icons didn't bother, things like BetterTouchTool, NewsBar. They are immovable!! I guess it is the key factor that the icon is movable or not making the difference.
Someone please lend me a helping hand?
I've attached some pictures in order to make my situation easier to be understood.
these icons can't be loaded on my loggin in.
but they can be loaded manually
however, these icons will be loaded on startup
I've almost despaired to resolve it . Thanks for your help!

I have a similar issue. When the computer goes into "Hibernate" mode -- that is, it loses power while sleeping and it writes the contents of it's memory to disk in order to boot into that exact configuration when woken up -- many of my icons when Apple-Tab'ing to another application appear as static. They look like a slightly colorized version of the "static snow" you see when tuning into a station that doesn't exist on a UHF antenna television. Also, icons in Chrome such as web sites "favorite icons" or favicon.ico (the icons that appear in the URL bar and bookmarks) will be scrambled in the same fashion , at first , until the actual icon is loaded.
Between this, my menu bar and finder icons not displaying, and being unable to boot into safe mode, I'm getting quite ******. I have no idea what the **** is going on with my Macbook Pro. The issue of the scrambled icons actually existed prior to installing an SSD and doing a fresh install of Mountain Lion. I may end up throwing in the towl and re-installing the operating system but I'm sure SOMETHING will happen. It seems the latest update, 10.8.2, is absolute garbage.
What the ****, Apple? And I really don't want to take the computer to the morons at the Apple Store. They are not "geniuses" by any measure.

Help!!! My iPad settings icon and other apps like facebook, gmail is gone

While i was playing fruit ninja , I lock the screen for a while then when I continue , i unlock my iPad with Recognizeme the scanning is fail so I typed the passcode
Then it unlocked but the problem is MY SETTING ICON AND OTHER APPS ARE GONE AND ALSO THE RECOGNIZEME APP

Shut down all apps in the multitasking bar:
*iOS 7/8 closing running apps*
Double-tapping the Home button will bring up the running apps icons along with an app screenshot "card" above the icon. Tap-drag the app's -card- (NOT the icon) up and off the screen.
Afterwards, reset the iPad:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
The iPad 2 has only 512MB of RAM for running apps (as opposed to simply storing apps on the device). iOS supposedly manages this memory and will automatically close off apps as needed but in practice with my limited use of an iPad mini 1 (which also has 512MB of RAM), I've found that you need to manually close off running apps for the device to work properly. Newer devices like the iPad 3, 4, mini 2 and later have 1GB of RAM for running apps...the iPad Air 2 has 2GB. These devices are not as prone to crashing due to low memory instances.

F4 help icon and Drop Down icon turned to input field in EHP4

Hi,
I am facing one strange problem, I have a system in which ECC6 with EHP3 was installed. Everthing was fine so far.
But as soon as we have upgraded to EHP4 package level 2 Web Dynpro Applicaiton UI rendering problem started.
1. F4 search help icon changed to input field like ui which does not takes any input but responds when user clicks on that field with normal F4 Search Help screen.
2. Drop Down icon also changed to input field like ui which does not takes any input but responds when user clicks on that field with normal Drop Down appears.
Any resolution for this?
-Haresh Khandal

Hi,
Yes, I also faced the same issues. I guess some patch levels you need to apply. Please approach your basis team for the same.
One moe thing, As a temporary solution, try to increase the width of those UI elements so that you can be able to the dropdown icons and F4 help icons clearly.
Try out this way.
Regards,
Lekha.

GREP: date/time search and replace

Hi everybody,
I frequently import XML files to InDesign. The XML structure always contains the following information among others:
start date
start time
end date
end time
For example, it looks like this:
21.08.2013
09:00
25.08.2013
18:00
Now I need to re-arrange these fields in one row, just like this:
21.08.2013, 09:00 - 25.08.2013, 18:00
I already found out how to do this via GREP, but I need to go one step further:
If "start date" and "end date" are the same (for example both are "21.08.2013"), I would like to skip the "end date" in the output. It should look like this:
21.08.2013, 09:00 - 18:00
Is there a way to do this via GREP?
Thanks in advance!

This will do it

Extract date/time stamp and modifier name from memo field

I need to extract all date/time stamps and modifier name strings from the Work Log memo field - or conversely, filter out all of the comments after the date/time modifier strings. I have the string extract but it only extracts the first one. I need to loop until all are found - how can I do this? The memo field will look something like this:
3/5/2009 3:32:05 PM John Doe
Comments - string can be any length
3/4/2009 12:35:43 PM John Doe
Comments - string can be any length
3/4/2009 12:28:17 PM Jane Dough
Comments - string can be any length and include date format 2009-06-04 14:20 CST.
3/4/2009 12:27:47 PM Mary HadaliddleLam
Comments - string can be any length
3/4/2009 12:26:55 PM Lamseedivy
Comments - string can be any length
3/4/2009 12:15:22 PM Mareseedoes
Comments - string can be any length.

Here is a formula that will strip all 'comment' and blank lines and puts the datetime stamp and user names into an array. You have to manipulate the elements of the array to further separate the datetime stamp and user name if required.
// Declare two indices
numbervar i := 1;
numbervar j := 1;
// Split each row of the memo field into an array
// if chr(10) does not work then try with chrw(13) or chr(13)
stringvar array x := split({Sheet1_.Comments},chr(10));
// Declare a holding array
stringvar array y;
// Declare the size of the new array to be equal to the elements in array 1
redim y[ubound(x)];
// Copy only if the first word of each element of array 1 is neither "comments" nor a blank line
for i := 1 to ubound(x) do
if split(x<i>) = 'comments' or x<i> = '' then
else
(y[j] := x<i>;
j := j + 1;
// Compress the new array to eliminate the last blank element
redim preserve y[j-1];
// Joining the elements of the new array and the number of elements for display
join(y,chrw(13)) & chrw(13) & ubound(y);
With your example, this formula will return:
3/5/2009 3:32:05 PM John Doe
3/4/2009 12:35:43 PM John Doe
3/4/2009 12:28:17 PM Jane Dough

6.00
Make sure the "can grow" option is checked to display the results and also check for case sensitivity of "comments".

After updating my iPhone 4s to iOS 6.1, Verification Failed: "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made." My wifi connection works; the icon is present at the top left. But Internet apps won't connect, be it Safari, App Store or Facebook & instagram. Push notifications also work so posts from Facebook and Instagram still pop-up. Does any one have any ideas? Thanks.

I have the same problem. Worked fine on Friday. My VPN or any ssl site do not work on my iPhone 5. Both work perfect on iPhone 4 and 4s

The outgoing call icon has just appeared in the menu bar at the top of the screen on my iPhone 5 and i cant seem to get rid of it.

I have rebooted and and cleared all running apps and still on luck.
The phone still works ok and i can make and receive calls.... any ideas on how to get rid of it?
Thanks

I have a motorola H17 bluetooth it is paired to iphone 4s. The icon shows that it is connected. When making a call i tap the speaker icon and the bluetooth icon is not there. The motorola H17 tells me i am connected and the battery life when turned on. Any advice? Thank you in advance

here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

What's the difference between the triangle icon and the square icon on the

What's the difference between the triangle icon and the square icon on the Bookmarks Bar, and how do you make the square thing happen?

Both mean that the bookmark is a group or folder of multiple addresses.
The triangle is the default setting, meaning that usually you click and choose a single address to open in the group. You can also right-click on the group name to select "Open in Tabs" to see ALL the addresses open in individual tabs.
The square is this behaviour (open all addresses in tabs) fixed, so that it ALWAYS opens that way, even with a left click. If you want to access an individual address now, you have to use option-click.
To switch between triangle and square, open your bookmarks screen (the book icon on the far left of the bookmarks bar, or Bookmarks menu - Show all Bookmarks, select the group you want to change, and tick the box marked "Auto-Click". You can of course switch back to triangle (default) behaviour in the same way.

The USB cable and iTunes logo is telling you to connect your iPad to the computer you normally sync with. Something has gone wrong and you need to restore your iPad.

Max Number of Time Series and Other Columns?

What are the ceilings on the number of Time Series and Other Columns that BOP can handle?
I can not find this very basic info anywhere but I have a client that I think has hit it.

@ cfr:
I googled. But I opened this thread the July 25th and I'd forgot about that link and the fact that my problem could be Firefox fault. Silly me. -_-
I'm trying to surf w/ Chromium right now (I don't like very much Opera and other browsers based on Webkit don't read much stuff on the web) to check if issue returns. If so I'll try to check log.
Edit:
I found that I don't even like Chromium as well. So I think I'll use W3m and Elinks for "normal browsing" and FireFox just when I need to write a mail with my damned Hotmail account.
Edit (2012-10-08):
the issue still presist, even without Firefox.
