Dock is being very strange..

Just Archive Installed a client's mac, basically the dock after the installation is nothing like the canvas you usually get.. Now its basically the same as Tiger's dock but with a black background instead of being transparent, and has a white border around the edges...
Anyone have any hints how to maybe fix this problem? I've seen it happen twice already..

The new dock appearance is only available when the dock is positioned at the bottom of the screen. From what you are describing, I guess that you have the dock on the side.

  • Flash being very strange.

    I have a macbook pro. Recently I noticed many flash based videos, such as youtube and facebook have been very glitchy. They also blink everytime I scroll down. What's going on? I've tried it on firefox 3 and safari. It feels like a hidden problem....

  • My iPhone 5 is being very strange...

    Hello all.
    I have an black iPhone 5 and as of recently, I have been running into a lot of problems with it. When I got off work this evening, my phone started to turn off and on every 5 or 10 minutes or so. I restored it (from a backup and then as a new iPhone) but it still turned off and on every 5 or 10 minutes. I removed my SIM card to check the water damage indicator but I couldnt tell if the sticker was pink/red. With all this being said, I have a LifeProof case on my phone.... I work at a pool so that is the main reason why I bought the LifeProof case. Another weird thing that my phone started to do after all this was when it came to charging it. I would leave my phone in the charger for about 10 minutes and come back later and it was still at 75%. I then removed my phone from the charger and restarted it and when it came back on, the battery percentage read 92%. I have been having a lot of issues with the iPhone 5 and so far I wish I had stayed with the iPhone 4s....... Does anyone know if Apple will replace my phone if 1) my phone is having hardware issues OR 2) if my phone is water damaged.
    If I am reading the Apple Care warranty correctly, then I think Apple DOES NOT replace water damaged phones. I just want to be clear on this before I go to the Apple Store tomorrow to discuss my issue with them.

    Here's the warramty.  You can find out for yourself, depending on your region, exactly what is covered:

  • My creative zen stone (with speakers) is being very strange! Please he

    Hi!
    I got a pink creative stone with speakers (and no screen) about a month ago.
    This morning I tried to turn it on, and the green light came on, but there was no sound. When I plugged it into my computer, it wasn't recognised, and it didn't come up on my computer, therefore, I can't use the recovery tool
    . No amount of pushing at the on and play button, or resetting it with a paperclip works.
    I'd really, really like some help!!! Thankyou very much!!!!
    Katherine

    here's my suggestion, if you have not formatted your player before, format it using fat32. What happens is, it immediately plays the songs 3 to four seconds after you press the play button long enough.
    with the default settings of zen stone, the player starts playing songs after ten or so seconds that might be the reason you had time to fiddle with the toggles before the songs play when in fact it takes that long because it wasn't formatted to fat32.

  • Very very strange issue: no more activation possible (iTunes 8.2.1 on a G3)

    At first, i came back to iTunes 8.2.1 because using 9.1 is no fun on a G3 PowerBook (the loudness adjustment makes the computer unusable for hours, then the vents roar and the machine crashes!).
    OK, because i still wanted to remote the G3 with my iPod touch, i got iTunes 8.2.1 wich runs very good on such an old computer. I am pretty shure that i already had this version on this computer, because i made almost every update... I use this computer just for listening Music! This Computer was activated all the time and with all Versions of iTunes - from 4.0 to 9.0 !!!!
    What happens now is very VERY strange and i am loosing my mind. The apple support can't help me (they also resetted all my activations).
    It sounds simple, but i am no more able to activate this iTunes!!! Everything is typed well, but no chance. It says everytime that the name or password is wrong. I also can't activate Genius!
    I promise, tried everything: my last attempt was to make a complete Reset of the machine (i erased the whole disk and installed everything(!!!!!) from scratch!)
    But with no luck - this machine will not let me f*/("&§ng connect to my account were i payed lots of euros for my music!!!!!!!
    This is in fact the strangest thing that i ever gone through on computers (and i've seen lots of strange things, believe me!)
    I hope that somehone could give me a hint...

    I actually found the window hiding at the bottom of my screen, being covered by my dock, and was able to drag it up.
    You can also go into System Preferences, then dock and then move your dock to the left or right to find the window.

  • 10.4.10 update and very strange problem with Mac Mini

    Dear All,
    I have just updated my Mac Mini Intel and I am having a strange problem.
    My Mac Mini has problems booting up. Sometimes I get through the login screen as normal but my wallpaper shows and there are no desktop icons, no dock, no top of screen finder menu bar. Some other times I get stuck in the progress bar of the booting up.
    I tried to run utilities from install disk and there were no problems detected.
    The VERY STRANGE thing is that several times now as I put my fingertip onto the power button laying it on the button but not pressing it yet (because I would like to shut down the system), the system kicks in and becomes unfrozen!!!
    Someone in the 123macmini.com forum says that this problem is related to the airport receiver which is near the power button.
    What do you think about it???
    MacBook and MacMini   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    ok, I have found a kind of fix for the problem, although may run a hardware test to check something!.
    I unplugged all USB and Firewire devices, I turned off Bluetooth and Airport, reinstalled the 10.4.10 combo update, when it restarted the starting mac osx screen took barely a second or 2 to load (my comment above is becuase from when I first got it on Sunday I noticed it was slow to boot up, also noticed that the screen resoulution I have set does not kick in until I log on, although this may be becuase this mac mini is an intel one). The computer booted up very quickly and I tuend on bluetooth and airport with no issues and plugged all the usb and fireware devices back in. I again turned the airport off and restarted and again it booted up very quickly logged on and swithced the airport back on. I decided to reboot with the sirport on and it got stuck at the end of the os x starting up screen, I waited a few mins switched it off and on again and it booted up fine although slower. I dont mind turning the airport off when I power down as the mac usually stays on anyway. I assume Apple will release a fix for this as a lot of people seem to have the problem so think I will stay put with this for the time being. It was taking a several goes to get to the login screen before but usually got there every few boots.

  • Very strange problem / Perpetual command key

    I've been using OS X since its inception, and have never had this problem before.
    Starting yesterday, I noticed a very strange problem that was happening randomly. When I clicked on an app in the dock, it would just reveal the app to me in Finder rather than opening it. Other problems including multiple selections when single-clicking on items with my mouse, and not being able to type. After some fidgeting, I realized that my iMac is acting like I'm always holding down the command (apple) key. If I have a window open, for instance, pressing the H (just by itself) key will hide the window. Pressing Q will quit whatever is active.
    I shut down, restarted, plugged in a different keyboard, used a different mouse, unplugged all my periphs, deleted all haxies and their attached files, and it still happened. I unplugged my 2nd monitor, and that seemed to fix it after another restart... but then I plugged in my 2nd monitor again and restarted, and now everything is fine. It's just happening randomly. I'm afraid to restart my Mac now. This is really bizarre!!!
    Someone please help!

    If it's any help, it started right after the following:
    When booted to Vista one night, I noticed ghosting on my nice new iMac screen which kinda irked me. I could see the menubar with the Spotlight menu icon burned into the screen.
    So when I got back into OS X I looked for a menubar hider. I tried Menushade and Menufela, both of which are quite old... probably before any mention of an Intel switch had ever occurred.
    But now I had a problem... no clock. So I went ahead and downloaded Yahoo! Widget Engine (aka Konfabulator). I know, I know... what a crazy workaround just to hide the menubar (this is why it would be GREAT if Apple would build in its own menubar hider option!)
    Anyway, this stuff started happening, so I deleted all of those apps (Menufela, Menushade, and Yahoo Widget Engine) with AppZapper (a great little app).
    Ugh... this is what you get for experimenting with homegrown apps, I guess.
    Anyway, hope that helps.

  • Address Book behaves very strange

    Hello members and outside viewers,
    First thing: My Address Book behaves very strange.
    - After startup, the window freezes. Only if I minimize and click again, works OK. I began used to it, BUT
    - Since yesterday, Addresses gone, disappeared from every entry.
    - Under Preferences » Address Format is uneditable, it has "Item3" in it, unclickable drop down menu.
    - Under Preferences »Template » Add Field several options are grey: "Phone", "Email", "Related Names", "Instant Messaging", "Address".
    Please can you help me! I deleted both plist files from Preferences folder and deleted the whole folder under Application Support/AddressBook, also reinstalled Address Book from Leopard DVD, but nothing helped so far.
    Second thing: when I invoke Spotlight, and start typing after 2-3 seconds, it quits and also Dock unusable, restarts automatically. Spotlight is useless, it behaves every time like this. Spotlight in Finder windows are OK, system-wide menubar has this error. Also, it was suddenly gone wrong like Address Book. Can I think of some virus?
    P.S. (off topic), might helpful to share: very frustating, that registering to Discussions took me over an hour.
    - With Safari 4.03 the "Name" and "AppleID" are blank fields on "Create New User Account", therefore impossible to proceed. ( Error: invalid AppleID. Please login with a different AppleID )
    - With Firefox you can actually see them, but "?" instead of accounted letters.
    - After changing My Info, I finally realised that Apple ID should be complete e-mail address.
    - That means my "visionfresh" account is totally different from "[email protected]" (or me.com, whatever..)
    - Not to mention that I created a new Apple ID, that was also not working.
    - Bottom line: my "[email protected]" account is working also in Safari after editing my Name (replace accented characters), but I could not proceed with the nickname "visionfresh", I chose "matyashuszar".

  • MacBook Pro - Battery behaving very strangely

    I have noticed there are already many threads on this, couldn't decide which one to post in so am starting a new one.
    I have a MBP 2.33 C2D 17" from late 2006. Last year I experienced the 'expanding battery' problem, my battery totally warped out of shape and was not working properly. After a fair bit of trouble with Apple France (who basically said, too bad, buy a new one), I eventually was able to go above their heads and get Apple to send me a free replacement. This seemed fair seeing as I had bought my MBP within the timeframe of an official battery recall published on the Apple site. The new battery worked absolutely fine, and is now still less than a year old.
    Recently though, it has started to behave very strangely. I hadn't made any connection that it could be to do with having upgraded to Snow Leopard, but in retrospect, after reading many of the threads here, it does seem likely that this is the case.. I recently did a big upgrade from Tiger to SL on this very machine, and it has been since then that I've had very erratic battery behaviour.
    My symptoms are similar to many I've read here: The remaining battery time (when not connected to AC) will jump from say 3 hours down to 15 mins very suddenly. Then sometimes it will jump back up again. Sometimes my battery health condition will say 'replace now', other times 'replace soon' or other times 'normal'. Also, sometimes the machine will just go to sleep with no warning, even when it had estimated more than an hour of battery time left.. upon reconnection to AC, suddenly it says 0%.
    I have always been careful to power cycle the battery properly, to let it run down regularly. Also since noticing this problem, the first thing I tried to do was recalibrate.. But I've tried twice now with no success. I let the machine run right down till it went to sleep, then left it on overnight, waiting for the power LED to stop flashing on the front of the machine.. But it wouldn't stop flashing even after being left off overnight. I have yet to try an SMC reset, will do that next.
    I realize my battery is not brand new, nor is my computer. However, this was a replacement battery I received less than a year ago. I'll put the battery stats below, but I'm not sure I believe them because I've been checking what is says a lot recently and sometimes it even shows a full charge capacity of a negative number! Something strange is going on here. I obviously don't expect full performance from a battery nearly a year old, but what it's doing here seems to be more than just a case of a battery getting old, especially having seen that many other users are having a similar set of symptoms after going to Snow Leopard.
    Model Information:
    Manufacturer: SMP
    Device name: ASMB014
    Pack Lot Code: 0002
    PCB Lot Code: 0000
    Firmware Version: 0110
    Hardware Revision: 0500
    Cell Revision: 0102
    Charge Information:
    Charge remaining (mAh): 2453
    Fully charged: Yes
    Charging: No
    Full charge capacity (mAh): 2453
    Health Information:
    Cycle count: 396
    Condition: Replace Now
    Battery Installed: Yes
    Amperage (mA): 0
    Voltage (mV): 12597
    Any suggestions appreciated..
    Cheers.

    I just got off a call with Apple support. The tech agreed that my symptoms were not normal, even for a battery with a cycle count over 300 like mine.. especially with the fact that the system profiler is showing bizarre info that makes no sense such as a full charge of a negative number. He said that basically the only thing I can try is to do an archive and reinstall of Snow Leopard, since it seems that the operating system is possibly corrupted. I don't think it's anything to do with the physics of the battery, it is more likely that the OS is not interacting properly with the battery, thus giving false and conflicting readings and information.. He seemed quite certain that it can't be a problem with Snow Leopard itself, seeing as all of the laptops in the Apple Support office were on SL and did not have this problem. So in his opinion, a corrupted OS was the most likely explanation. In any case, he said that batteries are only covered by a 90 day guarantee, so if it turns out that after a reinstall, my problem doesn't go away, then I'll have no choice but to buy a new battery because they won't cover it... This doesn't seem very fair to me because if it turns out that the OS has nothing to do with it, then it must be a faulty battery, because this kind of behaviour is certainly not what I'd call acceptable for a battery of less than a year old.
    Anyway, I'll perhaps try the archive and install process on the weekend and see what happens.

  • Very Strange Internet Problems

    I own a MacBook Pro 15.4 Inch that I purchased about a year and a half ago. I recently upgraded to Leopard and have all the latest updates. I am from the US, and when I am home my internet works fine. However, I am on travel to Seoul, South Korea right now and am having a very strange internet problem.
    As far as I can tell, the URLs that I type in to my browser are, sparodially, not translated correctly into the webpages that they are supposed to represent. This problem is probably effective 75% of the time, and the rest of the time my internet works roughly correctly. For instance, when I enter http://www.google.com, instead of being taken to the Google homepage, I am taking to the homepage of Jammin Beats DJ Service, an obscure website about a company in northern Pennsylvania. The actual URL of this website is http://www.jamminbeats.com, but when my internet is malfunctioning, 'jamminbeats' is for all intensive purposes replaced by 'google' (that is, it applies not only to the main page, but to sub pages, so "http://www.google.com/weddings" takes you to "http://www.jamminbeats.com/weddings" and etc). For most other webpages, one of two things happens. Either I am taken to the correct page but it is displayed without any images or frames (just the html text and links), or I am taken to a blank page with the header "Under Construction", which I assume is the default for a page that doesn't exist. This is why it seems as though the URLs are simply being interpretted erroneously.
    This problem occurs when connecting both to the wireless and the wired internet at my hotel, and it occurs on both Safari and Firefox, so it is not a connection-specific or browser-specific problem. It may be a problem with the hotel's internet, and as of yet I have not had a chance to test the computer at another location. However, a colleague using an IBM computer has had no problems, and I am currently on a Samsung machine in the business center of the hotel and it is working correctly as well. I have searched extensively online for a similar problem but have come up empty handed, and more than anything, I am confused about what might be causing this problem. The strangest thing is that a fraction of the time, the internet functions normally, but it is usually roughly 15 minutes out of every hour, and eventually I am inevitably taken back to Jammin Beats.
    I am a computer science graduate but I still have no idea what would cause this problem. At first I thought it might be a hacker, but if it is, he or she has been at it consistently for 3 days now, and only seems to be targeting my computer. Any ideas or solutions would be greatly appreciated, as I have been forced to resort to the hotel's business center for checking email, doing work, etc. Thanks in advance.

    I did consider that, as I was in Beijing last week and there are a number of censored sites. However, in Korea I have had problems with very basic sites like facebook, wall street journal, google, yahoo, Korean google, my hotel's webpage, etc. Further, I have successfully gotten all of these sites to load seemingly at random, and can access them without problems on other computers. The only disconnect seems to be between my MBP and the internet, not between Korean internet and the web. I have toyed around with the network settings, and although sometimes after switching from "Automatic" to a fixed connection I get some sites to work, it usually only lasts a short time and eventually the same sites stop working. I reset my cache regularly to make sure I'm not getting sent to cached sites, but this also doesn't help. Further, my Apple Mail, Skype and AIM accounts jump between being connected and disconnected randomly as well. Again, this is isolated to my own computer, which is why I'm so confused.

  • Very strange error : IDOC to jdbc scenario

    Hi
    I am getting a very strange error when I see the log for the idoc to jdbc scenario that I am building.
    The mapping test shows the header record and line item record properly in the mapping result.
    insert, access nodes, fields with access nodes are all formed correctly.
    However the communication channel log shows below error.
    Could not execute statement for table/stored proc. "tblTestItem" (structure "Item") due to com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Incorrect syntax near ')'.
    JDBC Message processing failed, due to Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc. 'tblTestItem' (structure 'Item'): com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Incorrect syntax near ')'.
    The message status was set to WAIT.
    The query that I see in the log is :INSERT INTO  tblTestItem () VALUES ()
    However mapping tool shows that all nodes are correctly formed.
    Please assist.

    Hi
    I am still getting this issue even after the below steps so kind of stuck - actually very much stuck.
    1. Restart of the dev environment
    2. Tried with a new extension of the idoc
    In the communication channel log for the JDBC receiver channel I still see
    INSERT INTO tblItem () VALUES ()
    The payload that I see in the message content tab is as follows
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    - <ns0:MT_XXX_XXXX xmlns:ns0="http://capita.com/pi/XXXX">
    - <Statement>
    - <dbTableName action="INSERT">
      <table>tblItem</table>
      </dbTableName>
    - <access>
      <InvoiceNo>0000000009293467</InvoiceNo>
      </access>
      </Statement>
      </ns0:MT_XXX_XXXX>
    How do I debug the jdbc adapter to see how it converts the above xml output from the mapping step (note that this output is from an actual run and not test tool) to a sql query.
    Very strange that the column names are present in the target payload but it is not reflecting in the query.
    I have other tables being populated with the same jdbc receiver communication channel which makes this more and more confusing.
    PLEASE ADVICE.

  • Very strange thing happening

    I developed a spreadsheet today and had a very strange thing happen while I was working in Numbers.
    Every minute or so Stuffit Expander would open and expand a file and place it on my computer. It started out as a quick flash on the screen and would be gone in an instant. I saw that it was being made by Stuffit so I opened up Stuffit and went into Prefs and told Stuffit to ask before expanding the file. This, then, stopped the process so I could see what was going on.
    A folder was make called "[file name].numbersFolder"
    Inside the folder are two files called: "buildVersionHistory.plist" and "index.xml". Along with these files is a "QuickLook" folder that has a thumbnail of the spreadsheet I am working on inside.
    The xml file is large and has several URL's embedded including the Apple developer site (http://developer.apple.com/namespaces/sfa).
    Can anyone tell me what is going on here.
    Looks fishy to me!

    If I recall, this is StuffIt expanding what it thinks is a ZIP file. It is correct, in a way, but you don't want it to do that. I do not have StuffIt so I do not know what settings it has. Hopefully it has one along the lines of "automatically unzip zip files" and you can turn it off.

  • Very strange bug with compareTo: returning incorrect results

    Hello everyone! I have used the method compareTo many times to maintain my database project's entries. However recently I have discovered a bug, in which:
    a and b both being Storage type objects:
    private static class Storage {
    object data
    int nextData //an array stores the Storage objects
    int previousData //this uses an integer to locate previous in array
    Problem:
    ((Comparable)(a.data)).compareTo((Comparable)(b.data)) returns a 3, when a.data is clearly 5, and b.data is clearly 20.
    This is very strange, as the compareTo should return a -1 instead of a positive number. Is this a known bug with the compareTo method? I have been using it reliably for many programs but this is the first time it ever occurs to me.

    is really the same as comparing "5" to "2"
    being the first character of the string, difference
    being, surprise, surprise = 3.
    If you want the Strings to be comparable that way you should left-fill them with spaces or zeros.
    Or, better still, override compareTo and make your Storage implement Comparable instead of all that casting of the data objects.

  • Very strange EL evaluation problem

    Hi,
    I have a very strange problem atm.
    I'm trying the JNDI Resources example on tomcat.
    My test.jsp page looks like this:
    <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
    <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
    <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql" %>

    <c:out value="${1+2+3}"/>
    <sql:query var="rs" dataSource="jdbc/JavaTest">
    select id, foo, bar from testdata

    Foo ${row.foo}

    The output of this page is this:
    Results
    ${1+2+3} ${rs.rowCount} Foo ${row.foo}
    Bar ${row.bar}
    As you can see these expressions are just written out to the browser and they are not being evaluated.
    The problem is not with tomcat itself because other jsp's without database access work perfectly.

    I've included the jstl.jar and standard.jar from the jstl package in the WEB-INF/lib directory, also the mysql-connector-java.jar (JDBCDriver) is included in the web-inf/lib directory.
    Here is the logfile, which might contain the answer to my problem: (I removed the ResourceRef specification because it's exactly the same as in the context.xml file)
    2004-09-29 13:45:01 NamingContextListener[Catalina/localhost/DBTest]: Resource parameters for jdbc/JavaTest = ResourceParams[]
    2004-09-29 13:45:01 NamingContextListener[Catalina/localhost/DBTest]: Adding resource ref jdbc/JavaTest
    2004-09-29 13:45:01 NamingContextListener[Catalina/localhost/DBTest]: ResourceRef[............]
    2004-09-29 13:45:01 NamingContextListener[Catalina/localhost/DBTest]: Resource parameters for UserTransaction = null

    Can somebody help me with this. I've been looking for a sollution for hours.
    I've been having problems setting up the jdbc-driver also, but I think this is solved now with these deployment descriptors. I don't have a single clue what is going on right now.
    ${} expression are simple NOT being evaluated.
    I don't think it's a database problem because I can see the user connections in the mysql monitor.
    Any ideas? All help is welcome and very much appreciated. :-)
    THANKS !!!
    PS: sorry for the extreme long post, I wanted to post all relevant information to track this strange behaviour down.

    Seems to be a problem with your web.xml not pointing to version 2.4.
    Just check this link too:

  • Photoshop CS6 13.0.4 Update - Icons look very strange/hazy

    Hi :-)
    I have installed the latest Update for Photoshop CS6 (13.0.4)...
    And now the Toolbar-Icons look very strange and hazy... :-/
    you can not see almost what are the symbols represent...
    for example the Spot Healingbrush etc...
    Is this a Bug, or the Icons are "re-designed" (but worse than before)...?

    Right at the end of the Hidden Gems workshop, one of the audience asked Brian Hughs if there any plans to accommodate high dpi displays for Windows systems, as with Retina Displays.  He said yes, but in a kind of offhand way that did not sound like anything was even remotely near to release.  Plus you are going to need a CC subscription when it is released.  As hardware gets ever better, that is a factor that is going to seriously compromise all those single app users who have sworn they will never go with CC.

    One thing that I immediately thought about was that with a CC subscription being cross platform, it would truly viable to own a Retina Mac Book Pro along with a Windows desktop system.  My Dell XPS M1710 is seven years old now!  I love the big 19 inch screen, and over the years it has had a much bigger HDD and maximum possible 4Gb RAM, but it a bit of a tired old Hector now.
    Does anyone here use both Windows and Apple systems, and is it a realistic proposition?
