Found my solution for my long start up. but more questions

When I first upgraded to 10.5 I had this problem (long start-up times and the long blue screen), did a clean install and all was good.
A few days ago it happened again all of a sudden. I did an archive and install, all was good.
It did it again today [:(] so I went about to try and troubleshoot it.
*Come to find out when my iPod mini is plugged in i get the slow start. when I unplug it and restart its fine. If its plugged in during startup it goes slow, as soon as I unplug the iPod mini from the USB port it loads right up.
Anyone know why that is?

Thanks for the reply. Thats what I figured. I've all ready fixed itunes so it wont open when the ipod is connected. But the problem remains.
I also just noticed that when its plugged in during startup I do not get the startup chime. I also tried it in different USB ports (between the two on the front) which had the same effect.
Also it does not matter if the ipod mini is on the charger. Same effect with just the empty dock plugged in. Know why that is? Could it be the dock is bad?

    This seems to be an annoying part of the newer OS.  When I first got my Pearl in 2008, I didn't have that occur.  However once the OS got upgraded, and now with the Tour, it seems like that is the way it works.  Not clear to me why they would have thought this is preferable.

  • I have held on to AppleWorks for as long as possible but Lion no longer supports it. Is there an app out there that converts AppleWorks to something Lion recognizes?

    HELP!  I have held on to AppleWorks for as long as possible but Lion no longer supports it. Is there an app out there that converts AppleWorks to something Lion recognizes?

    You can use Apple's iWorks suite of programs (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) to do most of it in Lion.
    Pages will open AppleWorks 6 word processing documents.
    Numbers will open AW 6 spreadsheets.
    Keynote will open AW 6 presentations.
    You may already have those apps on your machine if you acquired it recently. If not, you can get them individually from the Mac Apple Store via download at about US$20 each; or on disk from the Apple Store for about US$80.
    Note - with regard to word processing documents, Pages will open AW 6 versions, but not any earlier versions (such as AW 5 or ClarisWorks). So, be sure to update all you docs to AW 6 before transferring them to the Lion-booted machine.

    I'm new using Logic, i've been using garageband for quite awhile now though but my question is just basic. When i want to record electric guitar while clicking the software option it brings me to alot of guitar sounds that i want to chose. I chose the twangy electric or the distorted strat but i only hear clean sounds. No matter what kind of guitar sound i chose in the library it only produces clean guitar. How can i make it sound like it supposed to? Did i miss something i should do?

    This definitely has me stumped as I'm unsure as to why your guitar can be heard, but with none of the channel strips plugins applied to the sound.
    On the record enabled channel strip that contains your guitar input, is the "I" button located near the "R" active? Also, if you record your guitar, can you hear the FX applied to it when you play back the recorded track?

  • I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION FOR THE FIRMWARE UPDA

    I'm sure most all of you have had this same problem I <strike>had:</strike> When you try to install the firmware update it says 'Plug in your player'!!? A very frusterating message mainly when your player is CLEARLY plugged in. So here's how I came about my solution!?I endlessly searched on this support forum, and I found that several people had found the solution several different ways!? Then other people have tried other's solutions, and it worked for some, but not all!?The forums have obviously pointed the problem at the computer, and not the player. They are halfly right, the problem isn't what you do on the player, but it's what they do to the player. I figured that there was something that the succesfull posters?did in the mean-time between posts that the unsuccesfull posters didn't do. It also didn't make sense, like others said was the problem, that it was Windows Media Player!? They said that you needed to roll it back, downgrade, to WMP 9 or 0. This made absolutely no sense to me because when I brought up WMP , and 0 for that matter, it recognized 'creative ZEN touch' under the 'synch' tab. After I found the solution, sorry for writing so long about how instead of just what it is: I just wanted to make it clear that this is the solution, I told my dad what it was!?He said that it made perfect sense because when my older brother tried to upgrade his firmware on his Dell MP3 Player, a message said that:It must be fully charged!?Beore you mess up your computer deleting all of these files and waste your time, try plugging your player into the wall at the same time it's plugged into the computer!? Then run your firmware update and bravo!? You are back in buisness!?Here is what to do in a little easier reading format:?. Plug your player into the wall.2. a. Plug your player into the computer.?b. (your player, at least my ZEN touch, should have the 'Docked' screen up. I'm not completely sure how this comes about, but I think that it'll appear that way while downloading the firmware update.)? If not, then try it anyways!3. Go to http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/?and search by product!4. Download the firmware update.?I hope that the moderators and admins find that this is, in fact, the solution!? Make this a sticky or something!? Your loss, not mine. :smileysurprised:

    for all of you that fall in this...
    sorry guys it was supposed to be a postponed April fools day joke!!           
    ... i believe you will forgive this little silly joke of mine

  • Found a solution for all issues!

    Hi all, I just wanted to post my solution for all my problems with my nokia e63 (maling issues, crash issues, browsing issues, etc), yes, there is a simple way to solve them all and I took it, I just got a Blackberry and now everything runs smooth!! YES!, there is light at the end of the tunel, jajajajajaja I'm so happy to finally get over this nightmare, hope you all find your way out of Nokia's blackhole! Good luck

    I was able to locate an example that somewhat applies to your application:
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-11632
    I simply modified the code to allow for CI and CO tasks, similar to your VI, and it worked fine.  I've attatched the modified code below.  However, I was unable to run your code without receiving the error you were seeing.  Even after I made the VIs identical (leading up to the Start Task VI), I saw different bahavior.  The VI that you are working on may have been corrupt.  This modified example should be a good starting point.

  • Iphone 2G 2.0.1 using Linksys WRT54GL- found a solution for wifi problems

    My iphone was unable to see my home wifi router .
    After many many hours of changing the iphone and the router parameters I found a solution.
    I switched the Wireless Network Mode to G-only and put an open DNS (208.67.222.222) on the list of static DNS in my router (setup/basic setup).
    Now when iphone got an IP I removed from the iphone Wifi DNS list the other DNS numbers and left only the open DNS address.
    I hope this solution will help someone else

    Some of the problems people are having with connections has to do with the fact that for some reason they're either getting an IP address that's not in their subnet or not getting an IP address assigned at all. That was happening to me as well. What happens when you connect via ethernet is that you resolve that problem.
    Hopefully Apple will come up with a permanent solution soon.

  • Has Anyone Found a Solution for G5 Fans Gone Crazy?

    First of all, let me say that I am a long time Mac user going back to the Mac Plus days so I think I am fairly experienced in the ways of the Macintosh.
    I have a G5 Dual 2.0 ghz (Original Version) that is two years old and until last month has worked fine. Then I started getting Kernel Panic every day and the fans have gone crazy, revving up and down until I want to scream.
    My local Apple authorized dealer does not seem to be able to fix this problem. They have installed a new Logic Board and 600 watt Power Supply and over $700 in labor in this machine. Nothing has helped and they seem to suggest that I have a software problem. I do not agree with their assessment. I could have bought a new computer for what I have spent so far. As I type this, the fans are screaming full blast.
    On the internet, I have found lots of similiar G5 fan problems but nobody seems to indicate if they were able to get the fans to stop racing and act normal again.
    I have tried the normal suggestions, Engery Setting to Highest, reset the PRAM, erased my hard drive and reinstalled OS 10.4.6 several times, logged on as a new user. Nothing seems to help. Fans just will not settle down.
    I bought this computer as a DEMO model and did not receive the Apple Hardware Monitoring CD. Does anyone know how I can get this disk? Perhaps, it could tell me what is wrong.
    Looking for any help with this problem.
    G5 Dual 2.0 ghz, PowerMac w ATI x800 video card, 3 gb RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Sorry to hear about your problem Robert.
    Since you have already started a hardware process with Apple, it's best to just deal with them. We users really can't do much.
    I'm sure software has been eliminated by now in your repair process.
    The verison of Apple Hardware Test on your install disks is no longer compatible with your firmware and OS version. Only Apple Store folks and techs would have a recent copy. I'm sure they ran it several times by now.
    Take your machine back and say it's not fixed, remove your boot drive so they would have to use their own. Try another boot drive and remove the first.
    All we can really do.

  • I found a solution for my "iTunes has stopped working" problem

    iTunes was opening ok but would only play music; if I tried doing anything else like importing music or even navigating around it would crash with a "itunes has stopped working" message and shut down.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes twice with no luck. I searched for hours for a solution and finally figured it out.
    What the problem was is a corrupt user profile. I determined this by creating a new user account on my computer, opening itunes under this new account, and doing the things that would make it crash under my original account.
    Since it worked fine under my new account, I had to then transfer all of my user profile info from my previous account to my new one. Which is kind of a pain in the butt but not too bad.
    There are instructions for doing this on the Microsoft site. One thing to make sure if that you setup the new account as an admin (the way I did it, per the instructions, was to setup a third account that transferred the files from the original to the new account) and to share all files under the user profile with "Everyone" so that they can be copied and transferred. I did have trouble trying to copy all of the files at once and paste. It didn't work. So I ended up copying individual folders and pasting them into the new account. You only need to do this with the folders that contain your individual data, e.g. My Music, My Pictures, etc. The way I figured out which folders and files to transfer was trying to open them under the new account. If they wouldn't open, they didn't need to be transferred. Anyway, rely on Microsoft instructions for this, I'm not a computer wiz myself.
    Hope this helps someone because it took me a couple of days to figure it out!

    Adobe CS4 products were never meant to be transferred. It breaks the licensing and you get this error.
    There is a License Recovery tool for the Mac, download that from:
    Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
    For OSX 10.7 and above you can try fixing it using the Python Script and Terminal app. If you succeed, this will save you from Plan B, reinstalling Photoshop and illustrator plus all the updates.
    So basically
    Open Terminal
    Type sudo and leave a space
    Then download and unpack the LicenseRecovery111 dmg.
    Inside you will find the License Recovery folder and inside that you will see "LicenseRecover.py
    Drag LicenseRecover.py into the Terminal Window and press "enter"   You should see this:
    Enter your admin password. Ignore the fact that the cursor does not move and press Enter again.
    Follow the instructions, and when done, you can quit the Terminal.
    It should then be repaired. Try starting your programs.

  • Has anyone found a solution for fixing the dvd reading problems after installing snow leopard?

    I installed snow leopard on my macpro tower and my dvd player will not read dvds. My archived dvd all come up blank but on my laptop their fine. All my other dvds are just spit out. I have seen hundreds of post about this in the forums but I haven't come across a solution. Apple told me they have never come across this issue which is disturbing to say the least.

    Leroydouglas
    Thanks, I did see that thread and way too many others like it. My drive was working fine up to the minute I installed snow leopard and now I can't read all my archived dvds of the last 5 years of my work. Nor will it read the training dvd "New" that I just bought. It also won't even read the iwork disc that came with snow leopard. Of course all these disc work fine on my other make that didn't get the snow leopard upgrade. Apple support told me they never heard of anything like this. I took it to the apple store and they think it the dvd drive itself. Please, it plays cds fine and accepts new dvd media...some. Countless people have had their drives go out right after the snow leopard install.
    I'm sorry but what happens to a dvd player or what hardware problem happens to only allow a player to read a few dvds but all cds. Could someone explain to me what breaks. Apple saying I need to by a new dvd player from them is crazy. Why do I get the feeling that if I install snow leopard on my other machine that the dvd player will also break. How also can apple not have any record of this happening to others.
    I work with windows machines and linux boxes and Macs and I'm sorry I trusted an upgrade to a mac os that has been around for a while. If I would have checked the forums the way I do with anything I work with I guarantee I would not have upgrade to snow leopard after seeing all the people out their with this issue. It is also shameful that apple says it has no knowledge of this problem.

  • PL/SQL Solution for Converting Long to VarChar2

    I recently had to convert a bunch of text stored in Long fields to a new VarChar2(2000) field in the same table.
    As you know if you've ever tried, you can't use a basic SQL the update statement will not do this, e.g. update table1 set field2 = field1 (where field2 is VarChar(2000) and field1 is Long) fails as does update table1 set field2 = substr(field1, 1, 2000).
    Interestingly PL/SQL's implementation of SubStr does work with Long fields. I was able to put together the following anonymous PL./SQL block to accomplish the task (msgtext is varchar(2000), msgtext2 is Long):
    DECLARE
    CURSOR message_cur
    IS
    SELECT ROWID, msgtext, msgtext2
    FROM tlrcmmessages
              FOR UPDATE;
    message_rec message_cur%ROWTYPE;
    BEGIN
    OPEN message_cur;
    LOOP
    FETCH message_cur
    INTO message_rec;
    EXIT WHEN message_cur%NOTFOUND;
    UPDATE tlrcmmessages
    SET msgtext = SUBSTR(message_rec.msgtext2, 1, 2000)
    WHERE CURRENT OF message_cur;
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE message_cur;
    END;
    I hopes this helps others out there in similar circumstances.
    Good luck,

  • Finally found a solution for sync

    over here they offered me the following solution:
    iPhone creates a separate folder, so when opening outlook take iPhones original folder and use this as your default calendar. this works for the moment but it is tricky because if I forget to remember to open the other folder: lost entrys and if a shared entry applies it has to be copied. Facit: better than not beeing able to sync but no final solution at all dear apple!

    Thank you and whoever you copied this from so so much. Having already sent back one new iPod shuffle because after randomly autofilling from my entire music collection depsite following all the troubleshooting tips it just wouldn't let me do anything else, so I conclude it was broken! I then went out and got another new one from a different source only to find I had exactly the same problem. Ok that's too spooky for it to be a hardware problem, but having wasted two evenings of my life trying to sort it out I thankfully came across this post which works!:-) You are my saviour! Come on Apple put a fix out there for this or at least acknowledge there is a problem - otherwise I'm sure you'll end up loosing sales!

  • Found a solution for Locked VCORE/Prescott

    As much as I hate "Core Center" ( the first versions were just to " Buggy" for my taste) it seems the latest version has supplied a solution to my problem of not being able to adjust the Vcore with my Prescott
    My board ( 865 Neo 2 LS) has had the Vcore locked since Bios version 2.0
    ( 2.0 and up are the only versions that support the prescott microcode)
    When overclocking I hit a brick wall at 3.59 ( sometimes this was unstable) and knew that it was just a matter of being able to raising the Vcore just a tad( don't want to " smoke that Prescott )
    Well the latest version of Core center has allowed me to adjust the Vcore . I set it at 1.5 ( which seems to be the limit that some of the people over at the overclockers .com agree is safe) and I am happy to report that I have been able to hit 3.71 for two days now stable
    I have run a battery of tests such as Sandra , PC mark etc in an effort to see how stable it is and have not had a problem yet
    Video Encoding ussually brought my system to it's knees , now I not only can do this but I can run several other programs while encoding
    my temps have only increased 2C so far.
    I am going to try and continue to inch up my FSB some more and see how far I can push this 2.8E ( If I am gone for awhile you know what happened )
    Dave

    lol with my board i send 1.6vcore to keep over 3.95 stable.

  • Error - 36 Crash - Found a Solution for My Computer

    I just got a new iPod Photo. Everytime I attempted to sync with iTunes, with USB cable, I got the dreaded Error (-36) crash.
    After many tests, I discovered that changing to my second USB port, the sync now works.
    That is, all early tests were done with the left side USB port on my 17inch G4 Powerbook. All failed.
    When I used the right side USB port, synch works every time.
    Who knows why, but this solved my frustration.

    Of course you are correct. But at the time, I had just received the iPod and did not yet have the special firewire cable needed. I have it now and use only that - also for speed.
    Thanks for the comment.
