GDM not starting correctly after upgrade

I just got around to upgrading my machine to the new /usr based Gnome and XFCE. Now, when GDM starts I get the error shown in this screenshot -- http://img136.imageshack.us/my.php?imag … estpn0.png. I've removed GDM and reinstalled it to no avail. Any suggestions as to how to fix this problem? I would like to have my themed GDM back.

Make sure your themes are moved over to /usr/share/gdm/themes.
mv /opt/gnome/share/gdm/themes/* /usr/share/gdm/themes/*
I think this was the main thing but I also forced a reinstall of gdm and then restarted. The restarting was accidental (telinit 0 ) but that might have also played some role.
Good luck.

IPhoto does not start up after upgrading

On my new iMac iPhoto does not start up after migrating. Upgrade from iPhoto 6/Snow Leopard > Lion 10.7.1 with iPhoto 9.1.5. When the conversion is finished I can see the new library, it works allright. And with packet-inspection (or how is that called in English) all maps & data seems to be OK; I can check the seperate pics.
But: iPhoto won't start up a second time (grey screen with infinite spinning wait cursor). The same thing is happening when I add a new library and drop in some pictures.
What can cause this problem?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Facebook social plugin of fan page feed not displaying correctly after upgrading to Firefox 17

Facebook fan page feed not displaying correctly since upgrading to Firefox 17. Code hasn't changed, and it still displays correctly in Internet Explorer. In Firefox 17, the background has gone grey so that the text is no longer visible, and photos of fans are no longer displayed at the bottom. (Issues occur on both my Dell PC/Windows Vista and my MacBook Pro.) Please advise.
**Issue seems to have resolved itself; I guess plugin developers caught up with Firefox update.**

VirtualBox does not start correctly after kernel update

Just recently I have been unable to start VirtualBox after a kernel update. That is to say it seems to be running, but displays nothing.
The following processes are listed: VirtualBox, VBoxSVC, VBoxSVC, VBoxXPCOMPCD
The following modules are loaded: vboxdrv, vboxnetflt, vboxnetadp
Yesterday, when the same thing happened, I reinstalled VirtualBox and it worked correctly again.
I recently upgraded to systemd which has caused me some other problems, so that might have something to do with it
Cheers

Pix on touch not sorted correctly after upgrade.

Hi, my pix were sorted by Name in iPhoto'08, iTunes (10) and iPod touch 3g (iOS4).
After upgrading my touch to 4.2.1 last week, they are scrambled on the iPod touch. I created another Event with some pix, which was appended at the bottom. I presume the Events are sorted by date rather than name. I cannot get them back into sort order by Name. They are still sorted correctly in iPhoto and iTunes - not on the iPod. I am stumped. Any thoughts?

Thanks for the hints. I took out the databind() and it still throws the same error.
Also, I tried adding
crReportDocument.SetParameterValue("pi_letters", "LETTERXXX")
just before setting ReportSource and I get the following error:
Failed to open the connection
This confirms to me that the push method is not being used by the application/report since the report is still trying to open a connection with the database and is throwing this error when the logon credentials are not supplied.
Can someone tell me why the push method is not working here? I have a valid dataset, so my thinking is that I shouldn't have to go through the trouble of supplying parameters and logon credentials to the report.

Login action buttons no longer work and some pages not displaying correctly after upgrade.

After recent update, some web pages not displaying correctly and Login buttons on some sites do not work. I've updated my plugins and restarted computer, but problems remains. Is this Java, Javascript or something else? Same pages are working fine in IE.

Please update the firefox to the latest version of firefox 26
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

Itunes does not start anymore after upgrade to 6.05.20

I upgraded itunes to the current version and after that itunes does not start anymore. I scanned for virus with an up-to-date scanner, scanned for adware with Windows defender and ewido and used the tips from http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42963
I run itunes on Windows Server 2003 which worked fine for three years. I know it is officially supported on XP only.
I deinstalled itunes and reinstalled afterwards no change. The windows event log shows some erors
Faulting application iTunes.exe, version 6.0.5.20, faulting module shell32.dll, version 6.0.3790.2662, fault address 0x0015af84.
Any other idea?
Thanks
Christoph

ok, so I am not sure if this is legal or not, but there is a site called oldversion. Go there, and you can get past versions of applications such as aim , and in this case, itunes. just uninstall your other itunes first.
Sometimes different versions of appications run better on different computers. this new itunes probably just has something the last one didnt that cant run with what you have on your computer

Wcs not starting up after upgrade

I recently upgraded the cisco wcs software from 5.0.56.2 to 5.2.148 in order to eventually upgrade it to the latest version 7.0, after installing the software it fails to start WCS, i rebooted the server already and restarted the services i ran dbadmin checkschema and it completed fine but when it just hangs when starting wcs
here is what i get

anyone have any idea whats going on

just a thought i see that it doesn't actually remove verison 5.0.56.2 when i installed version 5.2.148 and im wondering if this isn't causing some issues with WCS not starting
here is my wcs status window
Health Monitor is running with an error.
WCS is stopped.
Database server is running
Apache server is running
but if i start wcs from programs it tells me health monitor is already running.
i created a backup of wcs using the backup feature and saved it so im not sure if i should just uninstall and reinstall at this point and see what happens or not

Transport service does not start automatically after upgrade to exchange 2010 SP2 from Exchange 2010 SP1

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade Exchange 2010 SP2 from SP1, but Transport service does not start automatically.
Tried manually start services, it started successfully but again goes down within few seconds automatically.
Reboot server. but no luck.
Any help.
MD

Hi,
I recommend you use event viewer to check if there are any relate event logs. This may help us to find the cause.
In addition, as Amit mentioned, Exchange 2010 SP2 isn't supported by Microsoft, I think upgrading to SP3 is a much more sensible approach.
Thanks.

TS1248 Track Pad not working correctly after upgrading to OSX10.8

I've the same issue since yeterday night after upgrading to OSX10.8 from OSX10.6. The problem I am having is only right side of the track pad is not working.. Did some one already experience this issue ?
See screen shot
Cheers,
Vivek

In addtion to Altenbach's comments -
I'd recommend trying another VI function to get the power spectrum for
your signal to see if the behavior is the same. You can find some
examples of VIs using the power spectrum functions using the NI Example
Finder.
You can go to LabVIEW's Example Finder by going to Help >> Find Examples.
Then search for FFT. There should be some results that include FFT and
Power Spectrum Units.vi, Power Spectrum Measurement.vi, Basic Spectral Measurements.vi, and Spectrum Measurements.vi. Try opening and
running these examples to see if the VIs are returning the proper
results.

Blender do not display correctly after upgrading xorg

Yesterday, I do a pacman -Syu

Anybody can help?Thanks!

My mouse is not working correctly after upgrade to ITunes 11

I upgraded to iTunes 11 for WinXP and now my mouse is not working correctly. No double clicks, no right button function and sometimes refuses to do simple left click options. What can I do?
I've tried new mouse drivers and checking the settings in Control Panel but no joy so far.
Driving me mad and taking me three times longer to do anything as I look for keyboard solutions.

I'm facing the same problem too on Windows 8. No mouse clicks (just 'ding' sound whenever trying to click anything).
I could work around it on Windows 8, but ultimately have to restart my PC to get back mouse functionality.
I wasn't quite sure which app is to blame, but ultimately concluded it's iTunes 11. As this behaviour always concided with having iTunes running in the background for 15-20 minutes (usually listening to podcasts) and never seems to happen when iTunes 11 isn't running.
Don't know what to make of this, I'm currently playing my podcasts through Windows Media Player instead. I'll hopefully try running iTunes 11 in Windows 7 Compatibiliy mode to see if that helps.

Crystal Reports in 8.5 not reporting correctly after upgrade

Has anyone experienced issue running Crystal Reports after upgrading to BI 7.0?
Specifically our finacial reports will not show detail level descriptions from BW queries created in 3.5 with hierarchies.
All was functioning fine last time we checked prior to upgrade. We have tried setting the display level in the heirarchies from the queries and even creating from scratch but Cost Element Descriptions do not appear.

Thanks for the hints. I took out the databind() and it still throws the same error.
Also, I tried adding
crReportDocument.SetParameterValue("pi_letters", "LETTERXXX")
just before setting ReportSource and I get the following error:
Failed to open the connection

HT201365 my text to send messages is now not working correctly after upgrading

Since upgrading last week my text is not working correctly it is very slow does not show the letter being used and takes seconds to be put in

Looking into the Diagnostics and Usage Reports in 'Settings' -> 'General' -> 'About' I see nine different "ExcResource_MobileMail_DATE" reports. Looking at the report I see a SysInfoCrashReport that indicates that the CPU was pegged at over 50% (mostly over 75%) for over 180 seconds using the MobileMail app.
I also see a "MobileMail_DATE" report that indicates that there was an 'Exception raised during monitored invocation of _loadMoreMessagesWithMaxVisibleIndexPath:maximumIndexPathsBySource:, exception: ** -[__NSArrayM objectAtIndex:]: index 4294967295 beyond bounds for empty array"
And finally I see three "stacks+MobileMail-DATE" reports with "Power assertion timeout for 'com.apple.message.fetchMobileSynchronously...' Simply resetting it now." and "Power assertion timeout for 'com.apple.mobilemail.messagebodyloader' Simply resetting it now" reports.
I updated to iOS 7.0.4 and decided to try and delete the account in my Mail settings and recreate it and set it to manual instead of the non-working fetch. Now, when I try to check my mail it still takes up to five minutes to respond, pulling the screen to refresh brings up the spinner for about one second and then disappears and no indications of activity occur until about three minutes later when I see the spinner in the status bar near the clock and then see a notification that it's downloading X of Y messages. At that point, message headers come in very quick and then about a minute later message previews come in. At random times, opening the mail app I get a "Password incorrect" error, even though the password works on other attempts.
