Gnome 3.12 - nautilus, gedit etc. don't show new input instantly

When renaming a file or directory in nautilus what I see in the input field is always one repaint behind what I actually did.
For example:
1.) Create a new folder in nautilus
2.) Rename it and set the cursor to the end of the name so that it deletes one character at a time.
3.) Press backspace over and over again.
It will seem as if it doesn't delete the first character of the foldername. Now type a new name and you'll see that it looks like it doesn't set the last character you typed. Click inside of nautilus and you'll see that it just needed a new repaint.
Same thing seems to happen in gedit:

Probably related:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=179900
One user mentions this being related to the latest nvidia driver (using 337.12 atm), but I remember having this issue also with the older versions. I suspect that this is a problem with clutter, since these problems started to happen around the same time I reported a screen flickering bug to NVIDIA which turned out was a bug in clutter.
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi … the-mouse/
A clutter maintainer responded to my thread:
That does not seem to be the case (yes that problem exists but this is a different story). This particular bug is simply a bug on how we handled the buffer_age extension in clutter. I have fixed in upstream clutter. The patch is also in the 1.16 branch (not just 1.18) so should end up in distros soon.
This doesn't happen in non-gnome applications like sublime text.

hello, blackout23
According to the bug report and the clutter developer, this issue has been fixed, but I'm still getting that horrible 'text to screen' delay with gedit and with other gnome apps. Mouse clicks in those apps are delayed as well. Is there something else I need to do, or could it be that I missed or misunderstood something while researching this issue?
Currently running Gnome 3.12 (not from testing repo) and all installed packages including nvidia are the current releases from the Arch official repos.
Thanks for any tips.
Edit: never mind, just found the following thread that seems to indicate it is still an ongoing issue:

Flex builder 3 don't show new components

Hi,
I've installed flex builder 3 beta 3. The new components such
as the advanced datagrid don't show in the components window.
Actually they were showing but for some reasons they are gone now.
I also have flex builder 2 installed on the same pc, but it
shouldn't be an issue.
I've made sure in the preferences that flex builder 3 uses
the right sdk (3.0 beta 3)
Can someone help ?
Thanks

Yes I was definitely running 3.0. I've solved the problem by
reinstalling flex 3.
However sometimes I get a nasty crash when I open a component
in Design mode and when the Properties window of this component is
opened. Then Flex closes and I get a popup with error log. Will
post it next time I see it.
Overall it seems ok though, I'm already enjoying the advanced
datagrid :)

List content type columns don't show new names after resource files were changed

Hello,
we ran into a problem, that we're not able to figure out at the moment.
We have a site collection with site columns and site content types defined and created with
features ant their XML files. All display names are retrieved from resource files. We do have
several subsites, that have predefined lists also created from features and their corresponding
XML files. They use inherited versions of these site content types as list content types with
their columns inherited from the site columns.
We had some changes within the resource files and never ran into a problem up to now.
We changed the display names of some of these columns within the resource files. After
these changes the site columns, site content types and list columns show the changes
as planned. Unfortunately the columns of the list content types do not display the changes.
They still show the old name. If you try to alter the old names manually the new name is
shown within the form, but you're not able to save it and the list content type columns
still have their old name afterwards.
We checked our definition files and they seemed to be well.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Markus
List columns as defined within new the resource file:
List content type columns, that do not show the changes from the new resource file:

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to modify the site column name in the list.
I try to reproduce the issue, however, everything works well.
You can modify the DisplayName in the Element.xml file.
Then after you redeploy the project, the site column name will be changed in the list setting page.
In addition, please check whether you create the list correctly.
For more information, you can refer to

New Formulas don't show under Select Expert --Record

Hello,
Some how my CR 2008 don't show new formulas in my report when I go in Select Expert-Record, all the formulas show under Field Explorer?? the odd part is that old formulas still showing only new ones don't show is a setup that I'm missing????

The old formulas most likely have the evaluation time function WhileReadingRecords or BeforeReadingRecords referenced in them.
Try adding WhileReadingRecords to your new formulas (If CR can process those formulas at that time) and you should be able to see them in the Record Select Expert.

Gnome 2.4 - Nautilus hangs

I am completely new to Arch Linux - have just completed installation of Arch 0.5 on my laptop which formerly ran Gentoo. I am impressed until now, but I have a problem with Gnome 2.4. I've installed all Gnome packages but when I start Gnome (from gdm) I first get an error message about Gnome not being able to resolve the host name of my machine to an IP address and when it comes to loading Nautilus it just hangs. I haven't run Gnome in more than 2 years so I have absolutely no idea about what to do ;-). Can anyone help?
And by the way, where is the config file for gdm - I want to add more sessions.
/Pyke

Thanx. I had figured out the hosts file was to blame. However, it raises a new question: How do I make dhcpcd add the IP address and hostname of my machine automatically to the hosts file (I change domains quite often, so I don't want to have to do it manually).
Well, back to the Gnome problem. I better explain myself more clearly: Gnome simply doesn't start. It just hangs with the splash screen and the message "Loading Nautilus". Nothing happens after that and top shows me that Nautilus isn't loading - in fact no processes related to Gnome consume CPU time after that. Here's a list of what I've done on the box until now:
- install Arch 0.5 - only base packages
- configure the system
- install X and configure it
- install Gnome and add gdm to the daemon part of rc.conf
Shouldn't Gnome work out of the box on a completely new and clean system?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

[Gnome 3.2]Nautilus reacts slowly, information about opening directory

I use the fallback mode in GNOME 3 and Nautilus.
After upgrade to Gnome 3.2
When you select Menu - Location - Home (or any other directory), Nautilus opens this directory. I can move between directories without problems.
However, the information about the opening directory – in the picture, "Otwieranie ..."(which means "Opening ...") – disappears after about 10 seconds, and the mouse cursor changes to the shape a clock.
It's pretty annoying. How do I fix this?

I'm having the exact same issues since the upgrade. My theme is broken too and unless I remove the user menu from the top panel, it stays huge regardless of any changes to the size in the panel properties. My clock also doesn't look/act like it should using the default theme (Adwaita).
My cursor does not change though, probably because I have a /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme file to set the default cursor (this also applies to the DM).
I guess all you can do for now is wait until the themes get fixed to work with GTK 3.2 or just move to another DE, it seems Gnome isn't dedicating much effort to the classic desktop.

Normally if anyone buys an apple product (mac) , it comes with a built-in-apps that should be considered ( built in ) , Then why when the mac faces a mistake or an error that forces it to format , these apps don't show up ? etc : iMovie , garageband

normally if anyone buys an apple product with a specific model (mac) , it comes with a built-in-apps that should be considered ( built in ) , Then why when the mac faces a mistake or an error that forces it to format , these apps don't show up ? etc : iMovie , garageband ...
considered it should be '' BUILT IN APPS '' ??
So does it really make sense that i should buy these apps again after i already payed an extra amount of money in the first place to get a model that includes them ??
after formatting my mac these apps should be there like its a whole new device that i opened !!!
I hope anyone with any useful information can share his thoughts or help with further steps .

FLV file don't show on iPhones, iPads, etc.

I'm on a iMac with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 processor running 10.6.8. I build websites using Dreamweaver CS4 and all my media files are FLV files. I've noticed that none of the media shows on a iPhone, iPad, etc. Is there a media file format that I can use that works for browsers and will show on iPhones, iPod, etc.? I also noticed that SWF file don't show either. Any direction would be helpful.

Those are Flash content types. Flash doesn't exist on iOS, and won't exist on any future mobile platforms, according to Adobe.

Some songs don't show up on iPod, but they are there

I have an 80GB iPod classic. I have all my songs in iTunes, and I have manually synced them to my iPod. When I view my iPod through iTunes, I can see all the songs and play them. However, when I look on my iPod directly, some songs don't show up when I browse by Artist, Song, etc.
The only way to play them on my iPod is to add them to a Playlist, and then they are accessible. However, if I want to listen to Eminem, for instance, I want to just browse to it in the Artist area.
The songs do have all of the appropriate info, and I have tried Restore and still nothing. These songs used to show up on my old, original iPod, so I am for a complete loss. Please help!

This isn't foolproof but there are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song has no album name associated with it or 2) the song is marked as part of a compilation.
If tracks are missing an Album name (as mentioned above) in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances but the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod
Also if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder which may be why this happens.

Songs don't show up in Library after a drag and drop

I want to put some music on my daughters networked imac.
( right now we have her music 'shared' across the network) I want her to have more control of her music so she can make playlists etc (she is getting a nano unbeknownst to her )
When I drop mp3 files into her iTunes folder they don't show in her library.
Am I going about this the wrong way??

Now I see the problem. I did not read your first post thoroughly enough.
You already wrote they show up in the iTunes folder.
iTunes doesn't recognize songs that are added this way.
The most convenient way would be to copy the files to a folder on the desktop and after you're done, to drop that folder on the Library icon or the Library in iTunes.
If 'Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library' in Preferences>Advanced>General is checked, iTunes will copy those files to the proper place.
Afterwards you can trash the contents of the folder on the desktop.

Some photos don't show in LIbrary view--just the outlines of them

Tonight I tried to transfer a bunch of digital photos from a CD my daughter burned into my iPhoto library, into the 2006 year folder.
I opened the CD and in the icon view, the pictures looked fine--jpeg files.
After I transferred them, these pictures don't show in my initial iPhoto window (the one that opens first when you click on iPhoto in the Dock, and shows all the pictures in my Library sorted by (in my case) roll/date.
Then photo thumbnails from years prior to 2005 show up, fine, but for the most recent year of pictures, all I get are the outlines of where the thumbnails ought to show. When I click on one of the blank thumbnails, of course I get a blank ...but the frame in the lower left shows the ID info for the picture and the picture counts, etc.
I can open the folders from the Pictures file and see them...they just won't show up in the overall Library window.
So...I moved the transferred ones out of the iPhoto library and just put them in the Pictures folder for now.
But what did I do? And how do I "fix it" to make all the thumbnails show up again? This is probably some simple thing...but I can't figure it out. I tried showing just the last 12 months...and I get all the blank outlines.

Hi john,
First problem. You need to import photos into the iPhoto Library the correct way which is while iPhoto is open. Drag the photos out of where you put them (you already did) now you can import them into iPhoto from there.
Read on for more info....--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
If you have already put files/folders in the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder then you will also find out that if you try to import them into iPhoto you will get an error message. No worry, just drag them to the desktop and import from there.
--All images that you import are shown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures. (DO NOT HAVE IPHOTO DELETE THE IMAGES FROM YOUR CAMERA! DELETE THEM MANUALLY WITH THE CAMERA-if something goes wrong with the import and they are never imported and then they are deleted from the camera you might end up losing those images)
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.

Don't forget that in Library view you can Control click on any picture and get a contextual menu with many options. One is to revert to original.
Now to get to your next problem...do a "get info" on your iPhoto Library folder.
