Few issues after recent updates

I updated my system day before yesterday and after booting I noticed that the last update didn't go smoothly.
My current setup is Arch stable on Thinkpad X201 on a docking station with external monitor with 1920x1200 resolution.
Issues I have noticed are following:
The console framebuffer seems to limit itself on only part of my screen, perhaps 1024x768 or something like that. The picture is aligned to top-left corner.
When I started StumpWM for the first time the whole X was using 800x600 resolution or similar, using xrandr I could select the 1920x1200 resolution but the StumpWM itself only seemed to use the same portion of the screen as the console framebuffer.
I then edited my xorg.conf and removed all 'non-essential' stuff from it and added "Modes '1920x1200'" to Screens section to get correct resolution when starting X but StumpWM still only use the smaller part of screen.
I then switched to Fluxbox which seems to work with correct resolution. It still has problem in Firefox. The firefox address bars list of addresses is aligned to screens left side instead of being just below the address bar.
Then I noticed that my keyboard won't work correctly. Prior to update I could use my keyboards fn+key combo but now it doesn't work. I use Happy Hacking Keyboard Pro 2.
Any idea how to get my keyboard and stumpwm to work again? StumpWM might be WM issue but it is pretty odd still.
Keyboard issue is more pressing as I can't type umlauted chars with it.

Got the keyboard issue fixed. Apparently the xmodmap file I've been using won't work with the new xorg.
Still need to find why the console and stumpwm is working incorrectly.

IPhone 5 Power button issues after recent update.

After this most recent update, my power button is not working as it normally does. It takes two or three attempts to turn the phone off and more than once to turn it. Sometimes it turns on and immediately turns off. This is happening only after this update.

Yes 7.1.2 I had a 7.1 backup, and no issues with that... but then I did a clean DL of 7.1.2 and once again with NO apps on the iphone power button issues... as mentioned. So it is not the apps, nor songs, nor anything else...just 7.1.2 I am now running 7.1 no issues.

Serious issues after recent updates this weekend

Hey guys, Recently i upgraded to leopard with a clean install, ran GREAT for about 1.5 weeks i hadnt updated from apple through softwareupdate yet untill saturday of this past weekend, since then i would have multiple pixels going crazy on screen, or lines would appear all the way across the screen, then the computer would lock up and only the trackpad would respond. Id restart it, and it would be stable for 10 mins, then do the same thing over again. Finally last night it just locked up after pixels and video freaking out for a good 30 mins on and off. Now when i try to boot i get the gray screen with a folder and question mark located in the middle. I should mention earlier when i encountered this problem i figured id reinstall leopard. so i archived and installed, problem persisted. My mbp is a little over a year old. 2 gigs of ram 2.16 all from apple.
thanks for any help guys, im clueless as what to do
im getting sick of having apple issues from everything to my ipod touch, iphone, macbook pro batteries and now the laptop.

Thankyou very much kappy for the quick reply, you give me hope, this will be the first thing i try when i get home. I forgot to mention i also suffer from missing various keystrokes and what not. When i ran the disk utility to check the condition of the disk it locks up. When i repaired permissions multiple errors were shown that were not corrected.
Thanks again kappy! i will be back with a result

Cyclic network issue after recent update

This topic is covered in a recent post but thought I would highlight it in a separate post now that I know more about it.
Having installed the recent Udev update on a virgin Noodle system, my network (Internet via LAN and Cable using dhcp) goes through a cycle of working, then not working with each subsequent reboot.
My other Linux system (Frugalware) and Windows XP are not effected.
:cry: :cry:

Yes, this is an issue that was reported by several testers, but not fixed prior to release. The Engineers believe it has something to do with the Airport Extreme Base Station/Airport Time Capsule units. Some testers switch to non-Apple routers as an experiment and did not experience this issue. Maybe it will get fixed in 10.10.1.

Keyboard issues after recent update

so last week I updated my iPad 2 to the newest update ... After that my iPad is unstable and constantly crashes ...and the worst of it is the keyboard pops up and covers where I'm typing , so I cannot see what I'm typing or being able to correct it . I'm very upset right now

My iPad Mini is working just fine with iOS 8.3, so avoiding updates is not the answer. If you have restarted the device, reset it, restored from a backup, and then restored as new, not using a backup and the keyboard is still malfunctioning, then there is something else going on. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store to have the device looked at.

My imessage is not Working after recent update

My daughters iMessage & FaceTime no longer work after recent update, can anybody help please?

It's mostly a server issue because millions of users are trying to do the same. Apple's servers get bogged down. Try waiting a bit - a day - before trying again. You can also check out this for other things to try.

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
How do I get update to 6.0.2?
Will that even help?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Cannot sign in Acrobat XI after recent update

After recent update, cannot sign in Acrobat XI even after changing enhanced security settings

To get iMessage and Facetime working you have to goto "settings > General> reset > erase all content and settings"
After iphone reboots go thru setup like a new phone but chose restore from iCloud backup. Choose "see all backups" and chose one before you installed ios7.
Usually iPhone backs itself up when locked and plugged into charger so there should be a few to choose from.
The phone doesn't have to be pluuged into iTunes for this but probably should be connected to charger.
Don't wait on Apple. They seem to think there is no problem.

After recent update to airport on iMac, the wifi connection is lost when it goes to sleep and requires turning off wifi and turning it on to reestablish contact.

After recent update to OS on iMac, communication to airport is lost when computer goes to sleep. To reestablish connection, I need to turn wifi off then on.

same problem here.
i have a time capsule.
symptoms:
excessively searching for network
but more often than not, it cant find the correct netowrk that is correctly stored in keychain
if i try network assistant opened through safari not finding its page, then it can find the right network after i enter in the password again. it connects. but only for a few seconds then it loses the connection again.
the only fool proof workaround for me is:
1/ shut down time capsule. restart time capsule.
2/ restart mac with airport turned off.
3/ after restart manually select the network from the wireless icon in the menu bar
airport utility is a complete waste of time
old airport utility is still better.

[SOLVED]-ish boot/device/radeon issues after recent upgrade

Hi, I am having major issues after last update. Basically it seems it is no longer loading drivers correctly at boot. I have a radeon graphics card, and the screen resolution normally switches during the boot process (presumably when the radeon module loads). This is no longer happening, so X is not starting for me. The network card is also not being picked up.
When i look at the boot log there is no errors i can find, but also there is NO [drm] messages at all (there is normally a fair few as it sorts out the graphics card.
I am still investigating, but if anyone has any ideas I'd be grateful (should i be looking at mkinitcpio? or the kernel itself? or the ati-dri ? what exactly were the changes made to the packages in the last couple of days on this sort of thing?

Hi i have sorted it. Unfortunately i am not sure exactly *how* i sorted it, I did another pacman -Suy which installed linux-utils (which i cant see affecting much). Unfortunately i had switched to a custom kernel when i first got the issue with the arch one, when i switched back again suddently everthing started working.
I understand the /usr/lib changes look like they have screwed np my custom kernels modules folder. But i still dont know why i got the problem in the first place, as it was with the arch standard kernel and ram disk if first got the issue. Anyway gone now. and the network card is working too.

[solved] sudo and yaourt problems after recent updates

After recent updates (past week) yaourt started giving me problems. When using yaourt it prompts me for sudo password but it does not seem to use my sudo configuration.
I get this:
[sudo] password for root:
[sudo] password for root:
Password:
su: Authentication failure
Password:
When entering mine or root's password I just get prompt again. The last password is for su, which when I enter root's works.
It seems sudo is not using /etc/sudoers configuration either, as I have things like insults enabled and it used to work previously.
Any reason for this?
sudo works fine otherwise.

HT3775 Quicktime no longer plays wmv files after recent update

after recent update, quicktime will not open wmv files. had no problem opening them up in the past. reinstalled flip4mac codec and nothing. don't want to use quicklime player 7 b/c need to use fast forward option that will not work with QT7. Any help is appreciated.
thank you,
Damian

I ended up on the phone with an Apple iPhoto expert after scheduling an appointment online (go to Apple support). He spent an hour or so diagnosing my particular problem and was able to fix it. I can once again view all my mov files in iPhoto. Since every computer is different, you might want to try that route. He was able to view my computer screen and direct me to do different things.

Premiere Pro Windows crashing after recent updates

Machine specs: HP Z820 - zeon e5-2690 48gb ram quadro k5000. Since the recent updates & complete wipe of the system & fresh install, Premiere pro CC crashes regularly without any pattern. Using MXF files while editing if that helps-i did read a thread about that - but it was old. This is a new problem. The event viewer information:

Try finding MSVCR110.dll file on internet and replace it in the path C:\Windows\system32\MSVCR110.dll
hopefully it works...

After recent update to Mountain Lion, trash won't empty completely; says "item" inuse

After recent update to Mountain Lion, trash will not empty completely. Always an item left in trash, and I get message that the "item is in use." Right now, using app Trash it! to get rid of that left behind item.

Try rebuilding Trash and see if that sorts it...
Launch Terminal and copy & paste these commands:
Go to /Applications /Utilities/Terminal and launch it.
At the prompt, copy and paste this command
sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash
Press Return.
You will be asked to enter your admin password. It will be invisible.
Enter it and press Return.
Log out and back in or restart.
Let us know.
