Events in iPhoto show a purple tint for half a second when scrolling
After installing Mountain Lion my 27" iMac (May 2011) started showing events in iPhoto wahsed in a purple or reddish tint for less than half a second, when I scroll down or up quickly. Then they turn to their normal colors. Every time I scroll up or down rapidly, all new events appearing onscreen are tinted in purple, then become normal. The same happens with iTunes covers or when in Safari I zoom in by double tapping my Magic mouse. Seems to be connected with JPEG files being displayed abnormallyt for some reason.
I know this is not a major issue but it is bothersome and actually it should not happen.
Can anyone help?
My iPhoto library contains 46.000 photos in 950 events.
When the event is clicked, it opens with the photos that I chose for the event.
So when you enter the event you can see the photos, right? Are you able to view the photos in the Photo mode?
Make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Ver 10.0.1. Entire screen blacks out for a few seconds when scrolling.
I recently updated to Reader X 10.0.1. Now when I scroll through a large document my entire screen blacks out for a few seconds. So far it has recovered. I get an error message saying that the NVidia nView driver (ver. 135.50) has stopped responding. I am running Windows 7 Pro on an HP Laptop, feeding to a large Samsung monitor. Never happened prior to this update. Any fixes/ideas?

I'm conecting my Ipad to the computer to charge and it shows the charging sign for a few seconds then says not charging, do I need to bring it in to get that fixed or is there something I can try to do on my own?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

Firefox hangs for a few seconds when trying to pause videos or skip ads on Youtube.
Hello all!
My problem is that YouTube sort of hangs for a few seconds when I try to pause a video or skip ahead or skip ads. The video freezes while the audio keeps playing until, after say 5 seconds, youtube finally does what I tell it to do.
This doesn't happen if the video is embedded on a different website, nor does it happen on Vimeo, Dailymotion etc. I can play YouTube videos perfectly while using Chrome, IE and a Windows 8 Youtube app I have.
After the initial freeze all commands start working very well, at least until I open a new video.
I noticed that a lot of people are having trouble with youtube while using firefox and I've tried a few things:
- uninstalling and reinstalling flash and java
- starting Firefox in safe mode
- using different antivirus software
- reinstalling Firefox
I read that this might be a problem caused by the whole Google being all buddy-buddy with Adobe thing, but I'm skeptical.
So, is there any way to get YouTube to work properly?

Photoshop hangs for nearly 15 seconds when using Layer > Group Layers or Layer Palette > Group from Layers commands. NOT on creating new group and creating layers and drag-n-dropping layers into group manually in Layer Palette. Got a UI design file with nearly 800 layers and lot of groups. This doesn't occur in smaller files. Using OS X Mavericks, Photoshop CC 2014.2.2, Mid 2014 15-inch Retina Macbook Pro.
I understand that the solution would be just to cut the file into smaller files and design each UI view in a separate file but that would be painful. And it does not seem to be a very hard task to just group layers.Does the document also have a lot of layer comps?
And can you post that document or send me a copy of it so we can see exactly why it is hanging? -
IPhone display lights up for half a second...
My new iPhone 4 does the same my old iPhone 3GS did. Sometimes when I push the slepp/wake button to wake it up, the display lights up for half a second and goes dark again. This always happens twice. Only when I push it the third time, the display stays on. Since it's a brand new iPhone 4 and the old iPhone 3GS did the same, it must be software related. I've had it with iOS 4.2.1 and iOS 4.3. Does anyone know this phenomenon too?
I get that occasionally. I've always assumed it was to do with the proxy sensor and the location of my paws on the device at the time. It's not consistent and rare occurrence.
Also, i use the Otterbox cover for it. I think it's design allows buildup of dust on the proxy and also could be contributing to the same theoretical cause.

I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smooth all the time.
Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies.
What is wrong? All the sudden.We need info, info, info!
What version of FCP X?
Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got. -
Firefox frequently freezes for 30-60 seconds when I click on bookmarks, bookmark buttons, almost anything really. It has been doing this ever since I downloaded the latest update (7.0.1). It is really frustrating. Can you please help?
You will also notice that your shift key will be emulated. Meaning that keys you will try to press will press but they will act like you are pressing the shift key when you are doing them.
Try this, minimize the firefox window by pressing the tab on your taskbar. After doing that maximize it again. You will magically be able to click any link on your page. When you navigate to a new page however, the entire situation will start all over. My only remedy is rebooting and hoping it doesn't happen again soon. -
After updating the new iPhoto software in the middle of December, I haven't been able to view all of my pictures that had been on my computer prior to the new software update, It shows the same photo for every single picture, how do I convert it back or reboot it?

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off. It would not reboot until I used the two-button reboot. Now it shows only green stripes. only for a few seconds and goes back to sleep. HELP!
Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue. -
FF 30.0 hangs for a few seconds when opening new window
It seems like
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/984193
It did not start with 30.0 but I upgraded in the hope that it would solve the situation.
Every time I open a new window FF hangs for a few seconds. It does not hang opening a new tab!
I tried the steps described in the above topic but they did not work.
if I open the console and type
gSnippetsMap.clear()
the result is
undefined.
If I type
localStorage['snippets-last-update'] = 0
the result is
[Exception... "Component is not available" nsresult: "0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE)" location: "JS frame :: debugger eval code :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 1" data: no]
There is no difference if I use "Show a blank page" or "Show my home page" where home page is set to "about:blank" for "When Firefox starts".
BTW, I am using Windows 8.1Short addition:
After the new window is opened I can type a few characters (max 5) into the searchbar. Only from then the hang begins. -
InDesign CS6 hangs for a few seconds when transforming group (OSX 10.8)
I'm testing InDesign CS6 under OS X 10.8. Seems to work without problems - except one thing which I noticed several times while working on a document (that I was working on under 10.7 as well, without problems):
I transform a group of objects (mostly placed Illustrator EPS) by dragging one corner of the group (with one or more modifier keys). After a few moments InDesign gets unresponsive (it freezes, cursore won't move, although you can change apps via Alt+Tab). Activity monitor shows 100% CPU usage (for one CPU core, at least). After a few seconds, everything goes back to normal.
Process analysis looks sth like that (it goes on and on like this):
This might be a problem related to this very document. On the other hand, this worked flawlessly under 10.7. So maybe someone at Adobe wants to look into that?Thanks, I'll try that.
In the meanwhile, I opened another document that contains the same group of objects. No hangs here. So this might indeed be a problem related to the document itself. -
Ipod only charges for a few seconds when connected through USB
Hello. Thank you for reading. I recently got a replacement ipod. No problem with putting songs back on the new one. However, whenever i plug my ipod into the usb cord on my work computer to charge my ipod, the do not disconnect will come on and the ipod will charge for about 20 seconds and then stop charging and go back to the main menu on my ipod. The only way i can get it to continue to charge is to click on update my ipod on itunes, and that ain't fun. Help smarter ipod users, you are my only hope!

Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”

B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
