Gnome-window-decorator missing after upgrade

Last night I did a pacman -Syu from a archlinux cd installation, this fixed many many problems, but broke compiz-git, which I like so much.
Now when I run startxgl script, I get no window decoration in gnome, and gnome-window-decorator, the binary, is missing.
This makes me remember when we changed from gwd to cgwd, which, I think sucks.
Is there a way to fix this? I want my window decorations back
any help would be very appreciated

thanks for your reply twistedkaos, but I dont want to use cgwd, I want to use compiz-git
I tried copying my gnome-window-decorator binary from /bin from ubuntu dapper to /bin of archlinux, guess what? it worked perfectly. I just had to put "--replace" to the last gnome-window-decorator call of startxgl (the one that calls gnome-session).
Well, not so perfect so far, gnome hangs at startup loading gnome-wm or something like that (I can see it sessions > running) but if I click on "remove" and "apply", it reloads and everything works well (still no good log out, I have to kill my X)
Now it is not working because I messed up my session gnome config which I dont know how to clean back, but, its there, its not difficult, and its probably not the cleanest way to do it
I will upload the gwd binary somewhere so you guys can use it too
here it is : http://webrepository.unlugar.com/arch/g … -decorator

Gtk-window-decorator missing after installing Compiz-Fusion

I just installed ArchLinux and wanted to try out Compiz-Fusion in Gnome. I installed it using the Compiz-Fusion wiki's instructions. Everything works fine, except that I can't use the gtk-window-decorator. After some research I found out that this file is missing. I checked out the Compiz-Fusion site, and it seems it ought to come with Compiz-Fusion. I checked in Linux Mint and found it there, so obviously it's missing in my ArchLinux box.
Can someone please veryfy if it should be part of the Compiz-Fusion packages?

See the second posting.
Oups! I searched for 'gtk-window-decorator'. It could be nice to mention these separate packages on the wiki Compiz-Fusion page. There are probably many out there looking for them.
Thanks!

The Library file has been hidden for some time now. So not surprised you are confused upgrading from Snow leopard.
The easiest way to view this folder is to use the Go menu and press the alt key. This exposes the folder in the list.
Hope this helps.

Print list of addressbook 4.1.2- window missing after upgrade to 10.5.8

Address Book - Printing a List
I upgraded my iMac g-5 Intel from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 My address Book is Address Book Version 4.1.2
When Printing a list of addresses with the 10.4.11 all one had to do is Select the names, click File/Print----and a "new window" came up
asking to select all the items to be printed. After that one printed the list.
After the upgrade, when doing the same, File/Select names//Print,,,, the next "previous" window is missing. No option available other than to print
One name per sheet.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi. Thanks for all the info.
You had convinced me. I certainly am not an expert expert. ---and than,-- I looked at the stats
and find the following description under "about this mac"
By now, I have to either believe I am stupid or should put this machine up for auction.
In either case. my original problem about printing the address book stil remains.
I really like to thank you for your input.

WPA security Types are missing after upgrading to Windows 8.1

After upgrading from Windows 8 Pro 64bit to Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit on my Sony Vaio Duoe 13, I could not find WPA security type while configuring Wireless network manually. (only WPA2 and 802.1X are available).
I have done a lot of troubleshootings like
1-Reinstall Wirless original driver
2-Updating the wireless driver to the latest
3-Uninstall and reinstall windows 8 then upgrading again to windows 8.1
But the same.
Is there any way to add WPA to the security type?

Yes! It works!
To recap : My laptop has an Atheros AR9002WB-1NG adapter, windows 8.1. Even when it had windows 8, it was unable to connect, but unlike now, I didn't look closely enough about the type of network. Originally I thought it was
this problem. But they confirmed that others with windows 8 had no issues with this. Then , when I tried configuring the network manually, I could not find the WPA-enterprise option at all, only the
WPA2-enterprise.
So here I was, and Greg Seth's answer gave me an idea.
In the following instructions, some commands are obvious, so I won't explain unless necessary. So here's what you do :
0) Go to command line, preferably Administrator (not tried without).
1) C:\Windows\System32> cd \Users\<User>\Documents
2) C:\Users\<User>\Documents> netsh
3) netsh> wlan
4) netsh wlan> show profiles
5) delete profile name=<yournetwork>
Enclose the name of network within quotes, this is to ensure that you can cleanly set up the right profile. Don't close the netsh, we'll need it some more. If you do, just reach there the same way as before.
6) Right click the connection icon in lower right corner > open Network and Sharing Center > Set up a new connection or network > Manually connect to a wireless network
7) Try to create a profile, and try to get as many details to correspond with your requirement. The rest we'll edit in command line, so let's make it as easy as possible.
8) Do the same at the next screen. Edit Network settings > change all the parameters that you can, to match the requirement. My university tech support has a detailed document listing the options to choose, usually for windows 7, or even windows 8. get
as many of them as possible.
9) Finish. Move back to your netsh terminal
10) netsh wlan> show profile <profilename>
without quotes this time. This should show your previous attempt at creating a profile in the GUI dialog boxes. In my case, it had WPA2 and AES. It has to become WPA and TKIP. I also set my authMode to userOnly, since I hadn't done it right in the dialog box
before.
11) netsh wlan> set profileparameter
displays a humongous list of parameters with detailed options, just carefully examine the syntax. It's all here.
12) netsh wlan> set profileparameter name=<profilename> authentication=wpa encryption=tkip authMode=userOnly
13) netsh wlan> set profileparameter
Don't exit this yet.
14) Now click the connection icon, and connect to the network. It will ask you the username and password in a different style, that was my clue something was different this time.
15) It should connect. In my case atleast, it did. Verify by browsing.
16) netsh wlan> export profile name=<profile name>
In order that you're not put through this ordeal again, export the profile safely to a file. Again, the profile name in quotes.
17) Wonder why microsoft makes things difficult for us!

Smb shares on OSX to Windows not working after upgrade

After upgrading to Maverick and OSX server 3.0 SMB file sharing is broken. I connect from Windows 7 to OSX SMB shares. Some shares work others only work with some folders on the share. Most folders display an error when trying to access the folders from Windows.
I checked file and folder permissions on OSX (finder and ls -l) permissions are the same.

@thePod7, your suggestion on Setting the Lan Manger Authentical Level worked! Only thing missing is the instructions on how to Set the Lan Manager Authentication Level. So I've included it below. Hope this helps someone else having the issue!
On command line....
1. Enter “gpedit.msc” in the Start Search box.
2. Open “Computer Configuration”/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Local Policies/Security Settings.
3. In the right pane, enable the following policies:
Network access: Allow anonymous SID/name translation
Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users
Also please disable the following policies.
Network access: Restrict anonymous access to Named Pipes and Shares
Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts
Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares
Change the following policy:
Network security: LAN Manager authentication level
Change the value to “Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated”.

I Tunes for WIndows wont start after upgrade to 8.0.1

I recently upgraded to iTunes 8.0.1.11. After upgrade, if for some reason I need to reboot my computer iTunes will not start. It took forever to finally figure out what it was. I couldn't sync my iPod, could not get on to iTunes , etc. I finally had to try to uninstall Bonjour to make it come up. The problem is that I can never fully uninstall Bonjour. It says I do not have sufficient privileges. It will be ok until I have to reboot again or turn off my computer. I then have to try to uninstall bonjour to make it come up again. Is there a fix for this bug so I don't have to go through the same procedure every time I reboot?

As far as the sufficient privileges go.
You may wish to temporarily disable User Access Control (UAC)
This should then give you permission to complete the uninstall process like you have been doing. Also ensure you are an Administrator user on the account. That right away will cause the message to appear if you are not.
You want to ensure this gets turned back on if you do not have adequate security protection such as
-Firewall Software
-Anti Virus Software
-Spyware/Adaware Software
To Turn UAC off in the easiest way possible
-Launch Control Panel
-Launch User Accounts
In this Window you will see an option called "Turn User Access Control ON/OFF" Click on this. A simple pop up window will appear. If it has a check mark in the box. Un-check it. Reboot. UAC is now off.
Windows security will notify you of this. Feel free to ignore it while you try to uninstall again. Repeat the steps above to turn it back on when you are ready.
By any chance have you tried a Basic Uninstall of Apple Software? and then Run the iTunes Setup file in Administrator Mode?

Access Sequence JEXC missing after upgrade to EHP7

Dear Experts,
we are facing an error while saving excise invoice through transaction J1IIN in development system after upgrade to EHP 7, Access sequence JEXC missing ( ) Message no. VE306, could you please suggest to find out solution.
Regards,
Amit Anasane

Dear All,
Thanks for helping with your valuable suggestions, finally i got solution of it,
The root cause of this problem was the change in the table T682I by theEHP7 upgrade.The fields KOTABNR has been changed from NUMC(3) to CHAR(3).With NUMC type the wrong statement works anyway.With CHAR type it retrieves no records. thus creating this error message, so it was a pure ABAP programming error. i am closing this discussion once again thanks to all.

BACK UP DATA MISSING AFTER UPGRADE

Hello again
I am posting again my problem , maybe this time I can get some more help..
I was using an older Itunes and 4.1 os on Iphone. I backed up iphone and restored it (TWICE) to check for data and eveything was there, after upgrading Itunes and OS to 5.0.1 , I tried to restore from the Previous Backup but lots of data was missing (contacts, pix,videos,songs,passwords) . What happened here ?
I found 4 backup folders with dates : 20/jan/2012 (1 folder ) , 23/jan/2012 (2 folders) and 26/jan/2012 (1folder) <---date of upgrade.
(I forgot to mention that when i was upgrading the OS , I wasn't prompted to do anything by Itunes, Itunes upgraded and backed up the phone automatically.)
I looked inside those folders and found out that the folders from 20/jan and 23/jan contain identical info. but the one from 26/jan is different !!!!!
1)does that mean that the original backed up info is still there but not ported over to the new OS ?!!!
2)Is there anything in particular that I should look for in the backup folders ?
3)assuming the original backed up data is still there , how do we make sure it is completely transfered to the new OS ?
Regards

That sounds like a more complicated problem within PC Suite...Maybe you should contact Nokia directly to see if they can come up with a solution for this.

Itunes window too large after upgrade!

After upgrading to itunes 8.2, the the itunes window opens so that the bottom of it is below the bottom of my display. I can't get to the "handle" on the bottom corner to make it smaller, and I can't get to any commands on the bottom of the screen (can't add playlists!!) Any suggestions?

Go to System Prefs and change your screen resolution. Resize the window, then change the resolution back.

User account missing after upgrade to Yosemite?

I have a mid-2010 iMac which up until recently I had two user accounts on for general use and one for music (Garageband, Logic and audio files etc). After upgrading to Yosemite, this separate user has vanished. I'm left with my original admin account, and a guest login. If I search for any of the files using spotlight, they do show up, but if I try to open them I get the message "you do not have permission to open this document". Also I had folders on the desktop of the music account which contained files, these folders show up in a search but are listed as empty? The files themselves are 'blank white sheet' icons as if they have no application.
I would assume this is a lost cause if not for the fact that my hard drive (more than half of which was taken up by the 'music' user) still reads as pretty much full up. So have I wiped all this forever?
Thanks in advance,
Dave

I'm randomly missing an account at login screen after reboot.
Sometimes I can fix it with booting into my initial account 'Kevin' (userid 501) and then changing to different login 'Christina' (userid 502).
But if I log out from my account, the second account is missing. Same if I do a reboot.. This have me in stitches as I ofcause has the need for privacy from each account.
Both accounts are set up as admins, guest is deactivated.

apart from that... I have loads of problems with Bluetooth, and hand-off only working 1 way (5s with 8.1) where only iOS -> OS X works, not vice-versa.

Ideally there should not be any impact of OS change, but officially PSE5 is not supported on Win7.
What exactly happens ? Can you see the processes running in Task-manager?
