Has something 'funny' happened?

I ask because after someone else used my imac, I ran a 'Verify Disk Permissions' for safety...
and got the following;
Group differs on "private/var/root/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist", should be 0, group is 90.
Permissions differ on "System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle/Contents/CodeResources", should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrwxr-xr-x .
Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26.
Permissions differ on "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/iLifeMediaBrowser.framework/Versions/A/CodeRe sources", should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrwxr-xr-x .
Maybe I'm being paranoid, but the mention of the camera worries me.
Anyway, I ran a 'Repair Disk Permissions' and hope it's ok.
Anyone see anything there I should suspect? Or am I being unduly suspicious?

Running verify is useless. You should always run repair. If you get warnings or errors you will need to run repair anyway, so running verify is a waste of time.
If you run repair twice, what are the messages you get after the first repair? Those are the onlhy ones that are important and even then, if they are the standard warnings, they are to be ignored until Apple fixes the bug. They are harmless but annoying little pests.

Something funny happening

Hello folks!
I have this java program:
import java.*;
public class Try {
public String s;
public native String Initialize(String mess);
public native void WriteMessage();
public static void main(String[] args){
Try k = new Try();
k.s = "hello";
String m =k.Initialize(k.s);
System.out.println("m = "+m);
k.WriteMessage();
static{
System.loadLibrary("try");
and the native method is wrapper.c
#include <jni.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream.h>
#include "Try.h"
#include "myclass.h"
static myclass *cl;
JNIEXPORT jstring JNICALL
Java_Try_Initialize(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj,jstring s){
// initialize C++ myclass
char message = (char )env->GetStringUTFChars(s,0);
cl = new myclass(message);
(env)->ReleaseStringUTFChars(s,message);
return s;
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_Try_WriteMessage(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj){
cl->Message();
which calls functions written in C++, myclass.cpp:
#include <string.h>
#include <iostream.h>
#include "myclass.h"
myclass::myclass( char *m ) {
cout << "Message on constructor: " << m << endl;
strcpy( message, m );
void myclass::Message() {
cout<<"you enter the Message method"<<endl;
cout << "Message: ";
cout << message << endl;
When I make the program run, everything works well, EXCEPT that it gives these answers:
Message on constructor: hello
m = hello
you enter the Message method
Message: helmo
Note that I should have hello instead of helmo. Identically, if the word is "bachi", I have this answer: bacii
For words longer than 8 letters, it runs into a VM crash!!!
I think it has something to do with the length of the Strings...
Any answer?
What can I do to correct this mistake?

1. Your C code looks goofy. It copies "message" onto itself.
2. You are misusing the booelan argument to getStringUTF. The argument should be a boolean that is filled in by the call. You should then be checking the boolean to determine whether or not to release memory.
3. You seem to be releasing memory that was - perhaps - allocated to hold the converted message - before you try to print it.

Has something changed with Static Files?

Here is a static file I uploaded last year:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=563610923303911988&p_fname=AskExpert.zip&p_inline=NO
It can be downloaded by anyone.
Here's one I uploaded this week:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=563610923303911988&p_fname=f107_TL.sql&p_inline=NO
It gives an "Access Denied" message unless downloaded from a link in an application,
or if the browser has been logged into the Application Builder.
The links above are from the floppy disk icons on the Static Files page. (4000:40)
I don't think I did anything different when I uploaded the files.
Some new security must be applied when the files are uploaded now.
Is this the correct new behavior?
It's probably not normal to use Static Files outside of Apex, but I have used them in the past to share files on this forum.
Thanks,
Doug

I downloaded the file, renamed it, and uploaded it again.
It is publicly downloadable:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=563610923303911988&p_fname=f107_TL2.sql&p_inline=NO
while the original still is not:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=563610923303911988&p_fname=f107_TL.sql&p_inline=NO
I guess that shows that Static Files are still working as always,
but perhaps something funny happened to the first one.
Good enough.
Thanks for looking into it.
Doug
To finish beating this dead horse, I guess I could install an application from the renamed file and see what happens to the static file.
But I probably will not.

When I turn my computer on (Windows 7) I receive a message that Apple wants to make a change to the hardware. I click on yes but nothing happens. The change has something to do with Apple "push". I recently had a problem with"push" on iTunes when I tried to sync my iPod Touch. I have latest software for iTunes and iPod. Can anyone tell me what to do to get this change to install?

Since hardware cannot be changed with software, perhaps you would be so kind as to post the exact wording of the message?

My apps will not download to ipad2 this is something that has just recently happened.Have switched the pad on and off holding buttons down but it makes no difference.Has anyone got the solution to this problem Thank you.

My apps will not download to iPad 2 This is something that has just recently happened. Have tried re-booting but that makes no difference .
Has anyone got the answer to this problem please or do I need to take it into an Apple store Thanking you.

If all of that stuff checks out - and iTunes is telling you that the apps have been downloaded to the iPad - try this.
Connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Right click on your iPad name on the left side of iTunes under devices and select Transfer Purchases from the pop up menu. Then sync with iTunes again. Don't eject the iPad yet. If you still don't see the apps on the iPad - click on the Apps Tab in the iTunes window on the right and see if they show up on any of the iPad screens. If they do - make sure that all of the apps are selected (checked) to sync - (checkmarks in the boxes next to the app names) - check to make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked and as well and then sync again. You may have to click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes if the apps were not selected to sync.

Has something happened with drag n drop in ff11?

Ok, since ive updated to ff11, drag n drop with images no longer seems to work. before when i went onto google images to find images i was able to just drag an image into the page and of it goes, but now whenever i try it the cursor just become and black circle with a line through it signifying that that cant be done. Has something happened to the drag n drop feature from before the ff11 release, i was able to do it fine then???
Anyhelp?

No, i dont use skype click-to-call, never heard of it.
Before i upgraded, i was able to go onto images.google.com then go into the My Pictures folder click and drag an image from that folder onto firefox to make google images become the top window then continue to drag to the search box to make the window show saying "drop image here" the drop it and it searches for that image. No MS Office apps involved.
*Update* while writing this message and going through the steps my self to give as much detail as possible, ff now allowed me to drop an image into google images to search for it, so it appears the prob has fixed itself? I do not know why it now works as opposed to the other day, as far as i am aware, nothing has changed. I only updated to ff11 the other day after i found out that avg link scanner was now compatible with ff11 and was going to downgrade ff to the previous version so that drag n drop would work again so it appears i may now not have to. I will keep this open for the next few days in case drag n drop stops working again which will save me having to re-create this post.

I recently had my iphone 4s screen repaired because the screen was cracked. It was all ok and then a few weeks later something strange happened. My touchscreen works, but the screen doesnt show, you can see the light in the background but no picture? has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem is, is it self-repairable or even repairable at al?

The LCD Display connector has partially come loose from the logic board connector, and simply needs to be pressed back down into place. Or the front screen assembly is now faulty, and needs to be replaced again.

Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

Yes - email & text work fine but when I use something like Google Images or search a blog with imbedded photos I get the empty white boxes with question marks. If I click the question mark it opens the photo but I can't possibly do that for EVERY image on EVERY page I search!?!?! I've rebooted the iPad & my wireless card several times but neither action helped. Have any clue what I should do now?

Good news! I believe I have fixed my phone!!
A friend of mine was having the same problem that I was having where you could hear other people but they couldn't hear you.
We fixed the problem by redownloading the 4.2.1 update. 4th post down on this page: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1052794&page=5 is a list of links to the update files. I downloaded the one for my phone and did a restore (from a backup) after downloading the file and double clicking it so iTunes opens. Since I've done this my phone has been working perfectly again!
It might take you a few tries, it took my friend 3 tries until his worked right and it worked for me on the first try. I'm guessing something was screwing up during the download.

It's better to post the URL of the feed (as you have subsequently done) than the contents of the feed .
From the FeedValidator report the feed is basically OK for iTunes. There are several occasions where 'content:encoded' sections (following immediately on 'guid' tags) should be enclosed in
<description>...</description>
tags: however all this will be ignored by iTunes anyway and only applies to other readers. The 'potentially dangerous content' referred to by FeedValidator is within the 'content:encoded' tags and so isn't relevant to iTunes. They are referring to an inline css style, and I don't know whether this might cause a problem elsewhere.
You should really have a language tag, e.g.
<language>en-us</language>
(you have a dc:language tag but that's for a different system). This should be placed in the top section, before the first 'item' tag.
It's advisable to have an 'itunes:explicit' tag for each 'item' -
<itunes:explicit>yes IF CONTAINS ADULT MATERIAL, OTHERWISE no</itunes:explicit>
it's not compulsory if you have no adult material, but you must have a 'yes' if you do.
You can check your feed by subscribing in iTunes from the 'Advanced' menu - this has the same result as clicking the 'Subscribe' button on the Store page. If it works OK there you are ready to submit it.

TV listings not loading. (Oops something unexpected happened) etc etc.

I'm trying to find out what's wrong with the tv listings. Theses pages are loading way too slow or not loading at all. When you click on program info, I get the "Oops something unexpected happened etc etc".This has been going on for over a week. I'm using Windows 7 and have all updates. Also I'm using the most recent Google Chrome. I have cookies enabled for Comcast/Xfinity. I use a ad block add on but this condition persist regardless of it's settings. I deleted all cookies, cleared the cache and started over on all that with no luck. There appears to be some spy ware associated with the listings page after I used "PageSpeed Insight" to look at the page. I saw reference to Facebook, some ad stuff, and some errors after the program analyzed the page, but I believe the problem is somewhere else. I would appreciate any help with this. I've seen others post similar problems with this tv schedule, but I have not seen much in a remedy besides, "use another listing service". I depend on this but it appears to be undependable. Thanks...jim

A technician did call today and he was sure, in a more than non cordial way, that the problems were on our end. He was also sure that Comcast could come out and load the grid on their laptop for 49.95 + tax, which may be true. While this guy was explaining how smart he was, he also explained that Comcast did not fix computers (again, in a more than uncongenial way) You could tell that this tech did not want to be bothered on his day off, and I may try to contact corporate on that. Anyway, I tried 3 of the top browsers...IE, Chrome, and Firefox, all with the same results. I also un-installed Flash Player and Java and re-installed those with no luck. In the end, I may have a technician come out to check my pc. The reason I doubt that the pc is the problem is that I just re-installed the operating system. Sunday night....Suddenly, everything is trying to load correctly. It may be a cookie issue. I just checked the option to allow 3rd party cookies (which I don't care to do) All the followers on this subject may try that. I'm going to try to fine tune the cookie thing for Comcast only. By the way...thanks to the very smart Comcast tech...for nothing.

Tabbing isn't working on my Firefox 3.6.10. I am pretty sure it has something to do with something that has been added, but I have no idea what. How do I find what has stopped my tabbing from working?

I have the "open new windows in new tab instead" marked in Firefox 3.6.10 and it used to work for me just fine, but now it has stopped working and I don't know if it has something to do with some extension or update that has been done or not.

I restarted my mac and many apps and files disappeared. It's like it booted to a state several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?

It's like it booted to a state it was in several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?
The files on my desktop are not the ones that were there when I shut down. It's like it's gone back in time.
My display's power supply got fried (I think) in a power outage so I bought a new one. However, every time I restart the display usually stays black. I have found I need to keep rebooting until it kicks in and starts working. I unplug everything, wait a while (a few minutes to overnight) and try booting again.
This last time the display finally came on but I'm faced with this problem. I used to use time machine, but I deleted everything and disabled it a couple months ago or more so I'm at aloss as to why the mac is booting into the state it was in sevearl months ago.
What could I have done to cause this? Has this ever happened to anyone else and is there a solution?
Note: I did a search for a file I knew was created today. I found it and it showed that it was a file I had saved on the desktop this morning--even though that file's icon is not appearing on the desktop now.
I did a search for photoshop and saw my CS5 version listed.
However, I did a couple more searches and these files no longer appear in the search. I don't know if they're there or not. This is bizarre!
I'm on a Mac Pro, 10.6.2.

Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
I'm back to normal again.

I get a error message "To charge faster, use the cable and device that were provided with this phone" when charging my Samsung Galaxy note 3. I took it to a store last week and they said it has something to do with the last software update. They tried charging it at the store and got the same message. I was given another phone, I still get the same error with the new phone.

Wowuor,
Thank you so much for reaching to us today. I want to make sure that we get the device charging the correct way. There is no physical or liquid damage to the phone or to the power cord correct? Did this error just start to appear as of last week? Please keep us posted.
