Errors Galore

I've had so many problems with the OWC Mercury Elite Pro drive I got specifically for my Mac Book Pro, which is specifically for working with Pro Tools and Final Cut. I have 6 other cheap external drives which have given me no problems. But I'm using the OWC a little differently with PT, so maybe PT and/or MBP is related. Please read on...
Firewire is recommend to connect drives for working with audio and video, right?
Because my MBP only has one FW port, I ended up having to chain my 003 to the OWC drive. I'm sure that would hurt speed a bit, but I'm thinking it should handle recording 8 tracks at 24-bit/48k. I haven't tried that yet though - and with the other problems I'm having, I'm starting to think that the daisy chain might be a problem.
Are there any more options? Why does "Pro" Tools proprietary 003 interface only have FW400, and the Mac Book "Pro" only have one FW800 port?
Now, at first it would seem that all the problems are just a faulty drive, but with OWC's reputation, I'd think they checked it out pretty good when they repaired it the first time. SO, that makes me consider that running the 003 through it might have something to do with these problems.
The first time I returned the OWC drive, I thought maybe the bridge was messed up because I was using the eSATA port on the drive into an eSATA Express Card (so I could run 003 direct into MBP). Even though that should technically work (that's what eSATA drive and Express Card eSATA is for, right?), I hadn't heard of many people using eSATA - so I thought that might be the reason why people don't use it. I don't know - I posted on many forums, and nobody had much advice.
I was getting a lot of errors from the beginning, and was trying to use Time Machine to back up my MBP to a partition on the OWC drive. It all kept messing up, so I stopped using TM and eSATA. I thought that would surely fix things. But the drive kept failing. So I sent it to OWC for repair.
Now I got the drive back and it worked ok for a week or two.
Till yesterday.
Here are the errors I've been getting:
Pro Tools will suddenly say that it's can't autosave, like the drive is read-only. It won't let me manually save either. PT says "Could not 14400 because (-50) while opening "psdgPBSRvmrbJZMW"."
Sometimes PT crashes.
Sometimes PT says that the sample rate could not be set while loading, and will usually crash.
Sometimes PT says the disc space couldn't be allocated, when there was 400GB+ on the drive.
Sometimes after these errors, I will restart the MBP, and it will get stuck on bootup. I have to hard reset, and then it will boot completely.
It seems like PT won't let the MBP eject any drives while PT is open (even flash drives, etc. that PT isn't using). Maybe that's some kind of safety thing. But sometimes all applications will be closed and MBP still says drives are in use and can't be ejected, and to close applications - but there are no applications that show up as running!
I sent the OWC drive back once already because it gradually kept having errors until it basically stopped showing up completely - they said it was the bridge.
Now it's starting to fail Disk Utility verification - unable to repair. Seems a lot like what happened before I sent it to repair last time. I'm starting to think that if I send it again, I'll get it back and the same thing will happen.
So, I don't want to try this same configuration again. Any suggestion?
I've done so many hard resets the last few weeks on what is supposed to be "Pro" gear, and I've tried to keep this MBP/PT setup as clean as possible.

In another forum, someone recommended an Express Card with Firewire.
I replied:
"Considering I got the eSATA express card from OWC too, I really think they should replace the drive and switch my card for a FW Express Card. But I'm kinda doubting they will since it's been more than 30 days. Maybe my repeated frustration will work in my favor...
So, is it common to use Express Cards? I always thought that a "pro" computer should come equipped to handle the most common of pro configurations. My setup requirements are pretty simple and standard - and that's what I am trying to do with this computer: work only, keep it clean, simple, running as fast as possible. But it seems like the MBP isn't ready for this out of the box.
I'm getting tired of buying different adapter cables and express cards, paying to ship drives for repair, etc. just to find out why my simple setup won't work the way it's supposed to."

Errors galore in DW CS3

I have been developing with DW since 1.0 and have upgraded
through every version. I have been trying to use CS3 since its
release, however I find that due to so many issues I revert back to
DW8.
CS3 - Crashes continuously - Yes I deleted the appropriate
file and restarted. It is better but still crashes.
CS3 - I open an existing webpage and try to apply a new
behavior, any behavior - Sorry making this change would require
changing code that is locked by a template or translator. This
change will be discarded.
CS3 - Tried to implement the highly touted Spry assets - a
ton of extra work for an extremley boring effect.
CS3 - Yep, just crashed again.
CS3 - Never imported all of my site definitions and ended up
having to re-set them up - about 40 thats a lot of time.
CS3 - In design view when you select a table or element it
places a HUGE measuring tool over the top of the box which blocks
your view and does not allow for you to select anything in that
region.
Honestly, since the move to Adobe this product has quickly
gone down hill. Multiple upgrades with absolutely no reasonable
improvements, yet a less stable application. Not to mention our
complete history of purchases for Macromedia DW purchases and Adobe
purchases have never come together in our online account making
setting up a new computer difficult.
Is this a B$tch session and a rant, yes, absolutely it is.
Its just so dissappointing to have to pay for upgrades that are
totally un-usable. I wonder how many other developers are suffering
these same issues, how many have reverted back to DW 8, how many
have found real value in the last few "upgrades".
I know there are little to no alternatives to DW, or Adobe
products in general.... perhaps this is the problem.

Transferring my library to a new computer - errors galore

I recently purchased a Retina iMac running OS 10.10.1. My previous computer is a Mac Pro (2006) with 10.7.5 (latest OS it will support). The Mac Pro has iTunes 12.0.1 with the database files on the system hard drive and the media files on a secondary internal hard drive. I need some help getting my iTunes library on to the new iMac.
Migration Assistant doesn't work.
Open Migration Assistant on the iMac and it finds the Mac Pro and offers a code which should be verified on the Mac Pro. Open Migration Assistant on the Mac Pro and tell it to "Transfer to another Mac" and get the spinning gear. Left it on all night, they never connected.
Consolidating my iTunes library back to the Mac Pro system hard drive doesn't work.
Following the directions from Apple Support, I pointed my current copy of iTunes (on the Mac Pro) to the default Music folder in order to consolidate the library all in to one folder so that I could transfer it at once to the iMac (iTunes > File > Library > Organize Library). After about 20 minutes I got an error message: "Copying files failed. An unknown error occurred (-22)". I assume there is one or more files screwing this up, but can't figure out which one(s).
Simply copying the entire iTunes media folder over my network from the Mac Pro to the iMac doesn't work.
Error (-50) and the copying fails before it gets more than 50 mb. I'm currently attempting to copy one folder at a time. But I don't assume that I'll be able to rebuild my old library on the new machine this way.
The current iTunes library is about 250 GB. It is slow, but works on the old machine.
Anyone have any good ideas about how to make this work?

Do you have a b/u of your iTunes from the old Mac? If the b/u is of the entire iTunes folder then just connect the b/u HD and drag the iTunes folder form the b/u to the new Mac replacing the iTunes folder on the new Mac.
If you don't have a b/u then create a b/u on an ext HD - once completed then drag the new b/u to the new Mac's Music folder.
When I got my new rMBP I too had issues with Migration Assistant but FINALLY got it to work. Not the normal friendly experience I have had in the past. I think I had to go to the Target mode to get things to work.

Publishing Problems -- Errors Galore

Here we go again...
I am yet again having repeated and contiunuous error messages when I publish any changes. I have spent a couple of hours of my life this past week on hold with calls to Apple (and many, many more at the keyboard) and finally was put through to an alleged iLife expert. He finally determined that the problem was Apple's not mine.
In short, I publish and finally get a message that there was an error in publishing. Sometimes, what I tried to publish actually does go through. But all the changed pages in my iWeb remain red and next time I publish iWeb tries to publish all the red pages, not just what was reecntly changed. Frustrating!!!!!
Anyone else having these woes or anything similar? Any suggestions that will help save my sanity?
Best to all,
Richard M.

Power Book G4 - 17 inch Mac OS X (10.4.5) iWeb site link (my labor of love): www.NWBpool.com

I think the really telling aspect of all of this is that your problems are intermittent and not consistent to any degree. I also believe that there are many instances when there are issues with the .Mac service that we as customers or endusers are not made aware of. iWeb has no choice a lot of times to just return one of its many "timeout" errors when the .Mac servers are misbehaving.
But I still strongly believe that there are other forces at work here. Count me in as probably one of many users who publish regularly using iWeb to .Mac who have never experienced a single error message. I think it has to do with my relatively simple site that has only small image files...no big video files and the like...and the fact that my main iWeb machine is relatively sparse with little to no 3rd party software installed in the system.
I hope that Apple gets a better handle on this situation with time. Unfortunately this is the most frustrating thing for people having issues. Good luck to you, Richard. Hopefully some fog lifts and you are able to publish again.

Dropping media, generic import errors galore

I'm in the middle of an edit and when I came back to it the day after starting it, this is what greeted me. An annoyingly large image below.
It has dropped several media files and when I try to reimport them, replace them or link them, I get the ever so helpful "generic import error". Any suggestions? The files that I'm trying to use are in the same path as those that work and I'm using a RAID drive so I don't understand why this is a problem all of a sudden since the files seem to be perfectly intact and work everywhere else.
I'm using Creative Cloud, so the software is up to date and OS X is the latest version.

OK.
Next, open a new, empty project. Go to Edit>Preferences>Media... Take note of where the Media Cache files are stored. In the section below, Clean the Media Cache Database. Close Premiere Pro and use Finder to go to the location previously noted for the Cache files. Delete them. Reopen Premiere Pro, and then your project. Let it rebuild the cache.

Libdispatch and MDWorker - errors galore!

Hello,
I have had the following errors in Lion installed in a brand new earlly 2011 15 inch MBP. From time to time it seems like my MBP is doing some heavy processing, the fans go wild, it gets hot and I went to look into Activity Monitor and it shows that mdworker (AKA: SpotLight) takes about 22 to 45%+ of the CPU.
mdworker: (Error) ImportPluginLoading: Couldn't load plugin '/Library/Spotlight/iWeb.mdimporter/'
when I go to the "/Library/Spotlight/" the folder "iWeb.mdimporter" is not there but spotlight wants to find it there every 2-5 minutes
quicklookd: BUG in libdispatch: 11A511 - 1813 - 0x4
After that I also get the following:
System Preferences: **** DesktopPref error: DSKiPhotoRootSource -loadData TIME OUT!!! There something wrong with iLife Media Browser
Does anybody have an idea of what to do?
thx

Hi Sonicray,
I also get the
mdworker: (Error) IMportPluginLoading: .....
message a lot in console.
I have two of them:
mdworker: (Error) ImportPluginLoading: Couldn't load plugin '/Library/Spotlight/iWeb.mdimporter/'
and
mdworker: (Error) ImportPluginLoading: Couldn't load plugin 'Spotlight/Google Earth.mdimporter/ -- /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Google Earth Web Plug-in.plugin/Contents/MacOS/Google Earth for Plugin.app/Contents/Library/'
The iWeb.mdimporter plugin in /Library/Spotlight/ is broken in my case.
It exists, but has 1KB instead of several hundreds, and has no version shown in finder.
I compared it with the version I have on my old MBP, and it seems the same, even thought it used to have 4KB.
On my old Mac, it did not give me any console error messages.
The Google Earth error was not solved by reinstalling Google Earth as a newer version, unfortunately.
It still remains.
Even though, when checking, the GE.mdimporter plugin within the GE internet plugin seems to be "OK".
So, unfortunately, no solution so far.
Lion brought me a lot of more console messages than Snow Leopard.
It seems that Apple changed a lot more things not to the eye within Lion that break old compatibilites.
SyncServer messages I had also a lot, and cleared old items via Syncrospector.
All the best, did you find a solution?

Errors galore when importing a WSDL file in FlexBuilder

I am fairly new to Flex, Flex 3, and the FlexBuilder 3. I
have a web service deployed in Axis2. Through many painful
attempts, I have it exposing my WSDL that I created. However, if I
import the WSDL, either from the file on my laptop directly or from
the URL of JBoss where I am deploying it, I get a rash of crazy
errors:

This is all in the code that FlexBuilder 3 generated. Am I
doing something wrong here? I can post my WSDL, as Axis2 returns
it, if needed. I tried to include it here, but I exceeded the max
length of the message.
I do appreciate the assistance.

Out of nowhere: Restore Errors Galore

Hi
This morning I woke up to my 3G iPhone´s screen saying 'Restore Needed. iPhone cant make or receive calls'. Hmm. Surprise, first hiccup since having the phone 3 weeks ago. As usual, I Googled the error and found that the answer was to switch it off, Hold down the Home button, and connect to iTunes. Indeed, this took me to a Restore Button, which upon pressing began a 7 minute process with a nice progress bar on the iPhone screen, and all seemed to be working itself back to normality
Surprise though, after finishing, I get a message in iTunes 'the iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1013). and the Phone goes back to the screen where apparently it is begging to be plugged into iTunes.
I have gone through this last process 3 times now.
How do I proceed?
Thanks
J

You need to go into DFU mode. To do this, get a windows pc, or boot your mac using bootcamp (No Parallels or VMware!). Make sure your iPhone is on and plugged into the computer with iTunes open. Hold down Top button and Home button for 10 sec, then release the top button, continuing to hold down the home button. Your iPhone screen should be black! If it is not, repeat and try again. Now iTunes should say "Waiting for iPod/iPhone", now, let go of the home button. Restore your iPhone from here. If it gives you an error, do not do anything! Let it do its thing. It might start up again in recovery mode (iTunes logo with USB cable). Do another restore, do not worry if this gives you an error. Now, if you got an error on that last one, make sure your phone is in recovery mode (it should be), and now hold down Top and Home buttons for 15 sec, and then let go of home button for 2 sec, and then let go of all buttons. The iPhone should boot up. From there, plug into itunes and just activate if needed.

Help! Crazy ECC Errors galore

A few days ago, I purchased a Mac Pro. I received it with (2) 512MB modules. Everything worked great. I then purchased (2) 1GB modules from OWC, the one's with the large heatsinks. I installed them on the top riser (Dimm 1 and 2), and installed the (2) 512 MB modules on the bottom riser (Dimm 1 and 2).
From that point on, it's been nothing but ECC errors, usually occurring with Dimm 1 (top riser). After a day of testing, I called OWC, and they sent me a replacement for my faulty modules, but I'm having the same problems with the new ram. I tried moving ram from the top riser to the bottom and even tried switching the riser cards, but nothing has worked so far.
I should have a total of 3 GB of ram, but sometimes when I boot up the Mac Pro, the System Profiler will see (4) 512 MB ram, when it should clearly see:
1 512
1 512
1 GB
1 GB
Does anyone have a clue as to why this is occurring? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
-Dean

Hi Ned,
Thank you for suggesting to use the Apple Hardware Test App.
Here's my little story du jour.
I called OWC. They told me their ram was bought from the same distributor Apple buys their ram from.
Having said that. After a week of ECC errors, and crashes, as per your suggestion, I ran the Apple Hardware Test. There was definately something wrong with the OWC ram, and not with only the first matched modules I received, but when OWC sent another set of modules, I was sure they were going to work. Nope! The same problem occurred. I couldn't get rid of the ECC errors fast enough.
This morning I was going to bring my computer in to Apple to get it repaired, but decided to run the Apple Hardware Test without any 3rd party ram. Everything was great. No errors of any kind.
I called OWC for a RMA# on both sets of ram, and shipped them back. Went to my local Mac dealer, and purchased (2) 1 GB Samsung modules, and everything has been peachy.
So if anyone's thinking about buying ram from OWC, I'd think twice about it.

First serious prob w/Mac Pro -- errors galore

New to mac, got this a few months ago, using Final Cut Pro a fair amount, which was my impetus for getting it.
Earlier this week I went to http://www.brother-usa.com/ptouch/ and downloaded the mac version of the p-touch printer program, so I can run it (runs fine from my PCs). I installed, didn't seem to work, uninstalled.
Then the fun began. Suddenly other programs wouldn't open...dreamweaver, adobe acrobat, compressor in final cut pro, then final cut pro.
So I reinstalled these programs, not all worked, so I did my best to delete the original version, then reinstalled again, and each one seems to be working okay now, except for adobe having some probs (but after effects and photoshop cs2 never had problems and I haven't had to reinstall).
Anyhow, I feel like things are still off and not sure how to check, if there's a program I should be running. For example, when I look at
/user/library/preferences/
I see files like "DivX Decoder 6.0 Preferences" and "Roxio Toast Prefs" which under "kind" say they are "Microsoft Entourage preferences" -- and quite a number of the files in this library are listed as "Microsoft Entourage preferences" which I know is not right. I do have a microsoft office package installed, which all seems to run fine at the moment (though I can no longer print PDF files, which used to be an option...).
So is there some virus in here? Or something that has changed the "kind" for certain files so that they stop being correctly recognized and don't work right?
Would appreciate any advice or insight since, as I said, I'm a total newbie to mac and hardly know where to begin understanding my prob. Thanks.

Mac OS X - it is essential when installing software to launch Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.

Hi Josh,
This is a new install. The vmnic's are not going to the same vswitch. I am not using the dell version of ESXi but the other working server is also not using the dell version either. There are 2 vmnic's configured on this device and only one vmnic is having this issue. Currently there is only 1 VM on this ESXi machine. The other vmnic (working vmnic) is being used for mgmt to provide VMs with mgmt connectivity. Thx

Titling errors galore

I am having a serious problem trying to title my tracks- since the last iTunes 'upgrade' I find iTunes decides what the titles of my playlists and artists are! I am a producer with a specific naming system to the work I do and iTunes is arbitrarily disallowing me to title the tracks and artists as I want- in many cases it will use a capitalized misspelling of my own band no matter what I do or type or select. The only way I can add the correct info is to type it out in another app and copy/paste it and even then it sometimes will override even that!! Any help deeply appreciated.

Adobe Flash Player 10 Error Message

About four days ago, I started getting this error message in a dialog box. It appears even with nothing open that would even require a need for Flash. I removed Adobe Flash Player 10 and rebooted, then added it back. The problem continues however.
Win-XP/SP3 fully patched and Malware free.
"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? Yes / No.
Checking either option only gets rid of the pop-up for a few minutes.
Regards:
BruceIB

I have just recently resolved my Flash Player issue.
My suggestion to all who have troubles with Slowing down players or error messages (like I was getting) is very similar to what has been suggested by Meln long ago.For windows machines- I don't know mac fix. but this might work.
1. remove/uninstall flash player from your system. ALL BROWSERS
2. reboot your system
3. goto the adobe site for flash player and have it check that you in fact DO NOT have flash player installed.
4. download the latest version of flash player and let it IMMEDIATELY do the install.
5. reboot
6. check how flash player works. If it is buggy and slow or kicking up errrors/messages go back to step 1. repeat this cycle as many times as necessary.
some notes:
Be careful when doing the install -DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE FLASH DEBUGGING VERSION- it will kick up errors galore.
Make certain you do noting else during the install and remove processes. You are problem solving -not being productive, so just wait it out patiently.
I know some will say, why would i remove, download and install multiple times - once should either work or not work.
OH how I wish this were true for funky software issues. There is some glitchy thing going on and where exactly it happens is anyones guess, or it would have been fixed. Without rhyme or reason one time though it will just work. when it does do a system restore point and put GOOD FLASH PLAYER as the note. after you do this fix you will know why you want a quick way back to this point.- you don't want to do it again.
i know this sounds stupid but after trying for months to "fix" my issue this is what worked on multiple PCs i had that had the issue(s) slowing down and messages.

          int n1 = 0;
          System.out.println("This program will take a number you enter and return a number between that number and one");
          System.out.println("Please enter a positive number: ");
          n1 = Keyboard.readInt();
          public double pickRandom(double 1, double n1); {
               System.out.println(pickRandom);
}

no.
First: what's this "public double pickRandom(...) {...}" function definition doing INSIDE your main function? put it inside the class but outside the main method.
Second: it uses a variable that is not defined in its scope (namely, "pickRandom")
Third: do not name a method the same as the class it's in
Fourth: the pickRandom method does not return a double, as it claims to.
Fifth: nowhere you you actually have any code do any randomization. Try (int)(Math.random() * n1);
Sixth: the pickRandom method does not use either of the parameters it is passed
Seventh: the pickRandom method is never called
Eighth: the pickRandom method calls one of its parameters "1" which is an illegal name since it's used for the number 1.

Hi Guys
Really sorry you are still having problems. I'll send you both a PM so I can gather some specific info about this error and when you are seeing it.
I haven't experienced it myself today so need to understand more about how and when it is happening so we can get it fixed.
Appreciate your patience with this - I know it's frustrating to get errors and timeouts when you are posting responses etc.
