Desktop version acting really weird

I'm having trouble getting the desktop version of Story to run (on MacBook Pro, OS X Lion). Whenever I open it, I see this warning
Then it gets really weird. If I have Google Chrome open, I hit Restore Windows and the application opens and runs. If I don't have Google Chrome running, I hit Restore Windows and get
Seems to be true whether I am connected to the internet or not. I thought initially I had a problem with Air, but I've uninstalled and reinstalled and all seems to be well there. Thoughts?

Hi,
This could be due to to OS X Lions 'Save/Restore Application state feature (on quit/relaunch)'.
Can you try out following and see if the issue is fixed ?
1) Launch System Preferences and click on the “General” icon
2) At the bottom of the “Number of recent items” list, uncheck the checkbox next to “Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps”
3) Now reboot and restart adobe story (you can try reinstalling adobe story as well).
Please note: This might affect other applications, whoe states were stored so far on quitting.This is a sweeping change that impacts all applications and the Finder itself, meaning all apps will no longer save their previous state, including when you reboot your Mac.
thanks

Is there anyone that can tell me a little bit about what is going on?

I've restored it several times with no backup at all and it doesn't seem to help. Almost all of my apps crash I have deleted almost all of them hoping if it was a memory prob it would be fixed but no the main one is safari it crashes all the time. It also just acts really weird. When I am typing anything on safari the letters will drag and then slowly catch up when I'm typing. It will also go to a different kind of screen format like its trying to figure out if it's a computer or phone when I rotate the screen. I have go in and delete the website data and clear everything almost everyday and it still does this. Hope that helps, if you have any idea on what's going on or any other advice on how to fix I'd love the help thanks

Brand new MacBookPro acting really weird. It's stuck i think

So my brand new Mac Book Pro (30 days old) recently started to act really weird. I have this audio software called Pro Tools 10 and 2-3 days ago it started to crash it every time i open up a Virtual Plug-in on a track. I thought that this was the only problem with my computer but I'm noticing new weird things every day.
When i shut down my computer or restart it it always turns on with the File Sharing window open.. I was experimenting with in the File Sharing window like 3 days ago but now it opens every time I start my computer. When I click on the System Preferences the File Sharing window always opens up. I have to click ,,Show All'' to see the menu for System Preferences.
When i open up Safari the same 3 tabs always reloads. This was some websites i looked at 2-3 days ago but it always reloads. Even if I quit Safari it reloads when i open it up again.
I deleted a application from my computer and it's shortcut from the DOCK but everytime i start up my computer it appears there (just a question mark instead of the shortcut)
It's like my computer is stuck. Stuck in the day i did all these things and it hasn't coped with the things I've done since then.
I've tried to un-click the ,, Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps'' in the System Preferences/General but as soon as I close the window it clicks itself again. I reset safari but that won't do it ether.
I've updated all my software and I'm now currently running Mac OS X 10.7.5 on MacBook Pro 15' i7 16gb RAM. I upgraded my RAM like 15 days ago so I don't think that's the problem. I've done ,,remember tests on it and it passed all the tests.
So what could be wrong with my computer ? What could be making her behave so weird ? Should I delete my user account and create a new one ? Should I install Mountain Lion instead of the version I already have ?

Dock acting really weird - Please help!

After installing the Mobile ME update and iTunes 7.7, my dock has been acting really weird.
1. I usually set the default dock size at the smallest possible. However, now when you left click on the separator of folders and applications, it allows the dock to become smaller than possible when setting from the Preference Pane
2. The dock automatically becomes smaller over time until the icons are really tiny.
Is this a bug encountered by anyone else? It really bugs me that I have to keep pulling the dock to a standard size. Can someone please help me out of this mess?

Hey VK
Thanks for the quick response.
I did just that. Deleted the com.apple.dock.plist under my user home directory/Library/Preferences.
While it reset the dock, the problem still remains. You can view the problem by
1. Setting the dock to the smallest possible size via the Preference Pane
2. Turn on magnification and bring it closer to the left side of the adjustable bar
3. Now, use your mouse to drag the dock by the separator
Observation: The dock will become smaller than is "set" by the bar in Preference Pane
4. Click on the bar in the preference pane, set at small, the dock will resize itself again
5. Choose the dock to be set on the right
6. Choose it to be set at bottom
Observation: The dock is a LOT smaller than it could ever have been.
7. Click on the smallest possible size in the preference pane, the dock resizes itself
8. The dock keeps getting smaller over time still. =(!

My iMac is acting really weird lately....

So I got my iMac in 2008 I think. Around that time. So sometimes it's slow but it still works fine... Initially I had 1 GB of RAM and last year I got 3 more so now I have 4GB of RAM. (I don't know whether this may be related to my problem but I thought I'd mention it) My iMac has been acting unusually weird for a week or so. It starts up soo slow, it takes about 7 minutes. Yesterday it started up just fine though.... Today I wanted to start it up and I got to the desktop screen but the little applications on the top bar (the wifi, volume, language preference, caffeine etc) wouldn't all load (just a few of them were there)... and then I got the spinning wheel.... which wouldn't stop spinning... so I shut it down because nothing would work and I started it up again. No luck. I tried again and this time I was stuck for 15 minutes at the grey apple logo thing before I got to the desktop screen... Also, I have an app called Caffeine. A few days ago it disappeared from my top bar without having done anything... I use it so that the desktop doesn't go into sleep mode/screensaver mode... so I noticed the screen saver and I thought it was weird because I haven't had screen savers for years. The first time it started to act strange was a week ago, when I started the iMac and it told me to enter my apple ID and password - but I never logged out of it! This happened multiple times. Once, I entered everything correctly and it told me that it was incorrect. When I restarted, it got me right into my apple ID.. Also Chrome was asking me for a password for 'local items' - which is really weird because I never had something like that. Or at least never seen that before..... I also searched for viruses and repaired some permissions but it didn't change much... now it doesn't ask me to log into my apple ID anymore but it takes so long to start up... But once it's finished starting up it works flawlessly. I'm really worried. What's happening to my iMac?

Do the following:
Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
Backup your files to an external drive.
Boot from your installer DVD.
Erase the hard drive.
Reinstall Snow Leopard.
Upgrade Snow Leopard to 10.6.8.
Reinstall any third-party software from original media.
Restore your data files.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. After formatting is finished quit Disk Utility and return to the installer. Complete Snow Leopard installation.
5. Download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8
The easiest way to do the backup step is to connect a formatted, empty hard drive of the same capacity or greater than your internal drive. Clone the internal drive to it.
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

My laptop keyboard acting really weird

I just bought my computer a few days ago and starting last night, every time I pressed "p", shows "*' and the 0 shows "/", unless I press the fn key and p key at the same time.
Here are some of the other keys that are acting weird:
; shows -
/ shows +
? shows +
Was there some combination key I pressed to change these? If there was, can you *lease let me know because it's getting very annoying.
Thank you.

It sounds like you have one of those standard laptop keyboards that numlock
changes things.
Try pressing numlock again. You might have to press the Fn key too...

Compressor, 24p, and 2-pass acting really weird

I am having a heck of a time using Compressor (1.2.1) with 24p footage and 2-pass. I encode it, then DVDSP gives me a "bit rate too high" error. To make a long story short, if I go into Finder and preview the MPEG movie, at the end the last part repeats. Also if I scroll through the clip in DVDSP, it does the same thing. The lengh reflects the extra data. It doesn't happen if I do 1-pass, it seems to be tied to 24p and 2-pass encoding. Some clips work fine; it seems to be mostly consistent with reference movies (as opposed to exporting self-contained), and I have just been exporting self-contained movies but now it seems that is not giving me consistent success.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? I re-installed FCP and Compressor to no avail.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6) FCP HD 4, DVDSP 2
iMac G5

I think I discovered what is happening........ yikes......
Ok, I was doing re-compression of movies that I had already done. So I thought I was overwriting the files, right? Well, I had one clip that changed dramatically, and at the end of the clip it had a hint of the end of the previous version. Then it hit me, it's not deleting the old file, it's just writing over the old file - but anything that's left stays there. That has to be what it is...

HELP! iPhone acting really weird!!!

My iphone keeps on rebooting. The apple logo comes and then dims and reboots again. The only way it can get close to normal is if i plug it in the dock or in the charger. Although right when it opens it asks if i want to turn off the iphone and gives me the red slider. Also when its plugged in, the lock button wont respond at all. The phone will only turn on and off by itself. When I take it out of the charger after a couple of minutes the apple logo come and keeps on rebooting forever without me doing anything. I dont know what to do at this point! Im really desperate.

Are you able to reset?

Super drive acting really weird

my super drive doesnt read anything!!! and i get this in system profiler

heeelp plz

Hi, shuyo. Thanks for sorting out the confusion caused by using Informac — a handy utility that I also use sometimes, but of course not the same thing as System Profiler.
It appears that your Tibook has a different Superdrive in it from mine. Apple may have used different drive models in earlier and later 1GHz Tibooks (mine was built during the final week of production), or perhaps someone has replaced the original drive in yours with an aftermarket unit. Your drive is reported to be unsupported for disc burning, a problem that might be addressed by downloading and installing PatchBurn. But that doesn't explain why it can't even read discs. Maybe the drive is just dirty, in which case a DVD drive cleaning kit from your local video store might take care of it.
As for why you have the "@" symbol in place of "A" in the System Profiler information about your drive, I'm completely mystified. Open System Preferences and click on the International icon. In the International pref pane, click the "Input Menu" tab. Which keyboard layout is checked in the list that appears? Perhaps that has something to do with the wrong characters appearing in your System Profiler. But I'd be a lot more inclined to think so if "ATA" were being displayed in your System Profiler as "@T@". I just don't know what's going on there.

Mac Book Pro acting really weird

I have a 2011 Macbook Pro. I am running OS X 10.6.8. The charger will only work intermittently and the computer will shut itself down from time to time. It forgets the time and my network connection. Please help.

In that case check out iFixit and YouTube “How To” tutorials for DIY repairs.
Your other alternative is to take your MBP to your local Apple Store or AASP for repairs.

Explanations:
Folder Depth: This number indicates how many folders are nested inside each other. If a disk contains only three
folders and Folder A is inside Folder B and Folder B is inside Folder C, then this disk has a maximum folder depth of
three. Folders nested too deeply can cause software compatibility problems.
Property List: This is a standard file format for storing data and is often used to store preferences. The names of
these files normally end with a .plist file extension. Corrupt property list files can cause system instability.
Resource Data: This is an older file format for storing data and was often used to store preferences. The names of
these files normally end with a .rsrc file extension. Corrupt resource data files can cause system instability.
System Symbolic Link Files: These are files used by the operating system that are similar to aliases. If these files are
damaged it may prevent startup or cause system instability.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Wired Aluminium Keyboard acting very weirdly

Hey guys,
My keyboard has all of a sudden, started acting really weirdly, and keys are doing things they shouldn't.
Whenever I type the "S" Key, the music will stop and when I press again, the music will resume playing.
When I press the "D" Key, it comes out as D=
Also, I have to press the backspace key at least 10 times for it to backspace one character.
Has anyone had any problems like this with their keyboard?
My iMac is only 1 week old.
Alot of other weird things happen as well such as the music glitching when I use the caps lock key.
Also I tried my Aluminium keyboard off my other Mac and it works perfectly without any of these problems I experience when using the other keyboard.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Things I've tried:
- Restart/ Shutdown
- Unplug all USB Device except keyboard
- PRAM Reset
None of these have worked.

I found this in the Help Viewer:
Some keys don't work as expected
Open Speech preferences in System Preferences. If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key combination to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--change to a more obscure key combination (try to use more modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, simply disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
Open Universal Access preferences in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab, and make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
In Universal Access preferences, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see this article.
If the issue persists, open System Preferences and click International.
Click the Input Menu tab.
Click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox to select it.
From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
If you have exhausted every trouble shooting tip possible, you might want to take the keyboard back for a replacement. Your iMac is certainly under warranty.

Really weird quicktime error - showing stuff beneath it?

I'm getting a really weird quicktime error like something I've never seen before. It's been happening for a few weeks now I guess, but I don't recall quite when it began.
Basically, almost any video I open in it ends up splicing into fragments. The audio works fine, but the video shows part of the video, then part of the windows behind it, then the desktop, then the video, and cycling back again and splicing through.
I'm up to date on everything and I ran disk permissions and I can't figure out what's going on. It's definitely quicktime though - it's affecting my iTunes and my Finder video previews as well, across a whole range of codecs. It doesn't affect VLC or mPlayer.
Any idea what to do?

A&I reinstalls the OS over the existing OS (to the version on your install DVD that came with the MacBook) but leaves user files and installed applications intact. You should still do a clone on an external drive first though. Or at least backup all your data files.
After A&I you then use the downloadable combo updater for OSX and the latest QT for QT, and then after reboot repair permissions. You can then run Software Update for the other updates like iLife etc.
If your install DVD was for 10.4.X and you are not on 10.5 then don't use the original DVD use the 10.5 retail disk instead.
