Has anyone experienced graphical problems and high power consumption while hibernating after upgrading to Mavericks?
Since I've upgraded to OS 10.9 my Macbook Pro 2.4GHz started doing strange things. It consumes large amounts of Power. The battery draines much faster than before in normal usage and even worse... it consumes quite a bit power while its alseep. A fully charged battery looses over night (hibernating) 30% of its capacity.
Secondly... the Mac takes ages to startup. Opening Apps and Aplications takes longer than under OS 10.8
Worst though is the grphical issue. My MacBook keeps on giving me funny patterns aroud openend windows and Ikons. A restart fixes the problem for a while, but it keeps comig back more and more frequently. Here is a screenshot:
Has anyone else come acorss these problems. Any sugestions what to do?!
Doesn't matter if the symptoms don't match. You've got an affected machine, and your graphics card could easily be in the early stages of failure. You definitely need to get it checked out by Apple.
Regarding the battery, some people are claiming battery problems with Mavericks, but I haven't seen any evidence of that. My machine's battery life is the same as it was before the upgrade. My guess would be that the sufferers, such as yourself, have other issues, such as a coincidentally failing battery, third-party software incompatible with Mavericks or a corrupt system. For all I know, the hardware problems you are likely having with your graphics card may be causing the card to draw too much power and reduce battery life. Since you need to get your machine looked at by Apple anyway, have them check the battery as well.

has anyone experienced this problem: I am editing in FCP 7.0.3 on a Mac 10.6.8 - I have a clip in the browser that is full frame and fine and it matches the other clips in my bins but when I drop it into the time line it becomes a fully zoomed in version of itself and I can only see a small portion of the image. What's going on? I've noticed this has happened in the past randomly with other clips and it's driving me cray cray! Any help appreciated greatly and thanks in advance for taking the time
In the FCP Browser, click on the source clip that is showing up sized incorrectly to select it. Once it is selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties here, or take a screen shot of the item properties and post the screen shot here.
Next, click anywhere in your sequence timeline and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your sequence settings. Either report those settings or take a screen shot of the sequence settings and post that screen shot here.

I have an iPhone 5 and email that is being deleted from trash is reappearing in trash a few minutes later. Has anyone experienced this problem? Any suggestions as to how to correct it?
Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
Come back with the results.

My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE app, has anyone experienced this problem?
This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod. I have had this problem with the 5th gen. It goes back a few years. Nike and Apple are aware of this. Nothing has been done. It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out. It then shuts down and reboots. Your mileage is lost. So sorry. Have a nice day.
Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight). I can keep it high and dry and out of the way. Like the software. Use it almost everyday. Hate the unknown dropped runs. I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices. Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened. Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month. Went to the Apple Store - three times. The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy. The problem returned. I then upgraded. The problem returned. The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help. Then, it returned. But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . . well, lame. And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).
Oh, one other thing. The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike. Nike said their software is fine. This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse. Not my problem man. See the guy over there. Got it.
I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix. So much for customer exuberance. Generally like Apple. We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . . but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind. -

I have a number of hard drives that my Mac Book Pro no longer 'recognises' at least for very long. When I turn them on the deskstop icon shows up but then shortly afterwards I get a message saying that it has been unplugged incorrectly. I haven't unplugged it any of them. When I try to run very/repair disk before they disappear I get the error in the subject line above. Has anyone had this problem and if so how did you rectify it?
The drive is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced, or you have some other hardware fault.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

Under the iCloud portion of settings on my iPhone, I have always gotten the message "account not verified". The email matches and is in fact the same for my accounts on iCloud and iTunes. Has anyone had this problem, and how have they resolved it?
Hello megalina23
You need to verify the email address associated with the Apple ID. Check out the article below on how to do this.

My brand-new iPad Mini has Siri unresponsive. This happens quite frequently and I find it very frustrating. I have a strong Wi-Fi connection. Has anyone had this problem and fixed it?
Let me also say that this has been functioning this way out of the box...this is not new or a result of cookies or a full cache.

I updated my fully functional IPhone 4S to OS7. Now when someone calls it rings once and goes to voicemail. Has anyone had this problem? How do I fix it? And yes I have restored my phone and reloaded it twice, still *****. It has turned into a Microsoft product.
Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons... -

Dreamweaver 2014 won't launch in Mavericks... has anyone experienced this problem?
I downloaded the new 2014 version of Dreamweaver today & it won't launch in Mavericks... also dowloaded it to my PC & that works OK. Has anyone had this problem?
Hi Harald,
Looks like this is happening because of some issue during installation of the product.
Can you try the following:
1. Un-install DWCC 2014. Note: Before un-installing, I would suggest you to backup any user preferences files, extensions or site settings.
2. Log out from your Adobe ID login in creative cloud.
3. Log-in back again and then download and install the product.
I am suggesting it since the same process helped one another user. Hence seeing if you are also encountering the same issue.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue and was solved by replacing the HDD?
Does your qualify timewise (within 3 years of initial sale)?
http://www.apple.com/support/imac-harddrive/
If so, call them.
I had mine replaced last year. There are several reasons why a computer does not boot, so it is difficult to say if the hard drive was the cause. You can take yours to an Apple store and ask to have diagnostic tests run. Youc an also boot up from your backup and run Disk Utility > Verify disk on your internal to see if any errors pop up. -

The audio is coming through my speakers fine, but there is no image of the TV Show or Film. Has anyone else had this issue and solved it?
I had the same thing recently when trying to play a video held in my itunes movies folder on my Macbook pro, through the Apple tv airlink to watch on my TV. I could hear the sound play back fine, but there was no picture/video.
It then dawned on me that the 'Apple tv' box can only show 720p resolution, and I was trying to play back a full hd (1080) video. I converted my footage to 720 (or apple tv version), and it now streams and plays perfectly from macbook to AppleTV. -
Wireless connection through Versamail using Exchange Active Sync.
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Sprint)I am having the exact same issue. I am running Windows Server 2003 SBS Premium with Exchange 2003 SP1 and the subsequent KB update installed.
I am currently thinking that this is related to the fact that I have issued my own SSL certificate for the site. I haven't been able to find a way to install a custom Certificate Authority to be trusted.
http://www.palmone.com/us/products/smartphones/treo650/activesync-faqs.epl says that "Companies that require the use of custom-made or SSL certificates signed by a trusted authority may have trouble using palmOnes implementation of Exchange ActiveSync." Has anyone who issues their own certs gotten Exchange Activesync to work properly? murph2 - Have you issued your own certificates?
