Having a few issues with my Satellite M105-S3004. Help please!

1)Ok I've had my laptop for about 3 1/2 years. For a few weeks now everytime I turn on my computer I get this message:
RegSvr32
loadlibrary ("C:\Documents and Settings\All users\Application Data\dubstefu.dll") failed-The specified module could not be found
2)I also have been trying to re-install the sims3 and when I put the disc in sometimes it will read and sometimes it won't. When it does begin to install it stops and gives me one of two messages:
Feature transfer error-I/O device error
or
Data error-cyclic redundancy check
Music CDs play, DVDs play, other games work, and the disc works in other computers.
Please Please Please respond if you have any idea what I need to do to fix this. I'm very good at following instructions.

Satellite M105-S3004
1) I don't recognize what's trying to load. You can track it down this way. Open the System Configuration Utility (msconfig.exe), uncheck all the items on the Startup tab, and reboot. If the message does not appear, then one of the items we have stopped is the culprit. It's a matter of rechecking half the items, rebooting, and so forth.
More (probably too much) about that utility here.
How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" state
You can safely ignore the nag message. Check it's Don't show box.
2) Since you get a CRC error only on this drive, it's probably just slightly misaligned for that particular disc. You should be able to solve it by copying this disc to another blank using the drive in question.
Let's see what the folks over here have to say. You should tell them you have Windows XP.

I'm having a few issues with Safari, can anyone help?

Hello, all,
I'm having a few annoying little issues with Safari at the moment, hopefully someone can help and it'll be an easy fix, but I'm stumped at the moment.
1. Every time I close and quit Safari it freezes and I have to 'force quit' the app. Not the biggest of problems but it's a little annoying.
2. Once I open Safari back up it reloads with whatever window was open when I quit, even if my Mac has been turned off.
3. Safari is eating up a lot of my RAM at the moment. 'Activity Monitor' is telling me it's taking up between 2-6GB of Memory.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Try a basic Safari reset.
Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items. Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History and Web Site Data. The down side is it clears all cookies.Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site.

Having a few issues with several programs (tor / mpd / ccm..)

Hey everybody,
I'll arrange this post in 3 parts since I have 3 different kinds of "major" problems or questions .
1st ( tor - privoxy - polipo - iptables )
I somehow found this article in your wiki and therefore tried to get tor and privoxy up and running on my desktop machine, as this didn't work as I hoped it would I searched farther in the wiki and installed and configured (as far as I've thought of) polipo and iptables.
Now I've put all 4 of them in my rc.conf, but somehow some of my http connections don't seem to work in chromium while iptables is running (https works fine though [e.g. archwiki works, youtube doesn't]).
I did everything as suggested in the polipo wiki entry, meaning I changed my /etc/iptables/iptables.rules to
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m owner --uid-owner polipo -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8123
COMMIT
and removed all proxy settings from my browser - meaning all corresponding flags in the startcommand. I also added "forward / localhost:8123" to the privoxy config and changed the polipo configuration according to the wiki in order to work with tor (the socksParentProxy, socksProxyType part).
now the next problem - that might probably be related to the first - is that my privoxy doesn't load in daemon mode anymore.
I think it's since I've installed polipo that privoxy began to refuse starting together with the other daemons
[usR@machine ~]$ privoxy
Apr 23 00:20:56.459 b75086c0 Fatal error: can't check configuration file '/home/usR/config': No such file or directory
this is the output I get when I try to start privoxy in normal user mode from the terminal, when I try starting the daemon manually (/etc/rc.d/privoxy start) it says
touch: cannot touch `/var/log/privoxy/logfile': Permission denied
chgrp: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/logfile': Permission denied
chmod: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/logfile': Permission denied
touch: cannot touch `/var/log/privoxy/jarfile': Permission denied
chgrp: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/jarfile': Permission denied
chmod: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/jarfile': Permission denied
Apr 23 00:22:34.490 b76396c0 Fatal error: Cannot setgid(): Insufficient permissions.
[/var/log/privoxy belongs to privoxy:adm]
when I do the same in sudo mode it just fails without displaying an error message..
I added this code to the /etc/rc.d/privoxy executable but I still get this owner conflict error and I have no idea what might be causing it.
if [ ! -d /var/log/privoxy ]
then
mkdir /var/log/privoxy
touch /var/log/privoxy/errorfile
touch /var/log/privoxy/logfile
chown -R privoxy:adm /var/log/privoxy
fi
If the order of the daemons in rc.conf is of any real importance here a copy of my setup
( @polipo @privoxy @syslog-ng !set-hw-addr !iptables @network netfs hddtemp @crond hal dbus @alsa @slim @tor )
2nd ( mpd & mpc )
I'm just wondering if there's a way to output the position of a track in the current playlist combined with a search. since mpc search <type> <query> only prints out full file path and name, but not the position in the playlist so that you could play it with mpc play. I thought of a method to print out the whole list with mpc playlist and pipe this output into a listing program, than grep out the song I'm looking for all that in a little bash script, to replace mpc search.
Is there an integrated mpc search function that works the way I imageine it and my idea therefore redundant, or if not, is it realizable the way I picture it; does such a listing program exist?
3rd ( cairo-compmgr )
Since I'm already posting here I thought I'd mention my older problem which I still couldn't solve.
1st) I need to start cairo-compmgr(-git) in sudo mode to be able to edit any settings or activate the gui in any way. how do I automatically start the program on startup in sudo mode? I tried editing ~/.fluxbox/startup & ~/.fluxbox/init, even tried adding it in /etc/rc.d/ and /etc/rc.conf in order to start it as a daemon (lol, noob) but none of that worked properly obviously Any ideas? I don't want to start it manually and "waste" a terminal window for that every time I boot.
2nd) I can change opacity (transparency) in both versions only per hotkey, and when I do so the settings don't get saved, they even get reset to normal opacity as soon as another window gets selected. does anybody know if there's a config file or any way to save opacity settings for certain windows & programs, so that they automatically get loaded when cairo starts and stay applied until it gets closed?
[or generally: how do I configure the Plugins? ]
the last "problem" which occurs only with cairo-compmgr-git:
When I rightclick the ccm icon in the task bar and disable the composite desktop, the whole program kills itself oO
In the old version the option "Composite desktop"'s box just got un-checked and I could easily restart ccm by rightclicking the logo again and re-enabling the "Composite desktop" option.
Any clues on that by any chance?
I'm using Fluxbox by the way, if that's of any importance for any of the problems. hope I didn't forget any important information if so please remind me
Would be thankful for any kind of help
have a nice weekend
deF
//edit:
concernig the tor / privoxy problem, I managed getting all the daemons to start up at bootup again, my iptables situation remains the same though.
I went through all the config files again and played around with chown and chmod a little and for now the system is stable, everytime I reboot all the daemons start without any problems.
but when i start chromium with --proxy-server=localhost:8118 now, I get the following error message
The following error occurred while trying to access http://torcheck.xenobite.eu/index.php?:
504 Connect to torcheck.xenobite.eu:80 failed: SOCKS error: network unreachable
Generated Sat, 23 Apr 2011 04:49:08 CEST by Polipo on archzor.localdomain:8118.
notably with all programs running now, tor, polipo, privoxy (and by now dansguardian as well)..
I'm tired so I'll go asleep now, maybe I'll find something tomorrow in the logfiles or whatever, so far:
every kind of help is still very appreciated

okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
//e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

Issue with shared services - Need Urgent Help please!!

Hello Experts
One of my customer has installed a new instance of oracle and copied all the schemas and data over to the new instance.
Now when they bring up shared services, have lost all our provisioning. None of the projects are recognized by shared serices and gets the following error when we try to bring up a user
'xxxxx' is not a recognized Shared Services project. Please contact your adminstrator
Is there something we need to do to restore Shared Services to its original state?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sonu
Edited by: 637223 on Jan 20, 2009 2:19 AM

hi,
I doubt that "creating a new instance of oracle and copied all the schemas and data over to the new instance" will register the project with shared service and thats why giving error. Because when you install shared service, it asks you about the database name (oracle in your case) to register with. So even if you overwrite that database by new instance it gives error.
Have you tried the configuration utilty ? Over there you can provide the new database instanse as your database and configure your shared service. Remember that you need to do a complete configuration of shared service , analytic administration services and analytic services. After configuring, Restart the system.....it should work.
Hope this helps!

James

Timing and control issues with tween transitions. Need help please!

Hi!
I have a script which sets the duration of the Tween
transition to 20 frames. How can I start another function when the
Tween transition's playback has reached frame 10 of the 20 frames?
The onMotionFinished property only works if I want to
initiate something at the completion of the transition but I want
to start something at a certain frame while it is still running.
var butWebX:Tween = new Tween(butWeb, "_x", Bounce.easeOut,
-300, 5, 20, false);
Also is there any way to control the duration or the speed of
the easing effect in the Tween transition class? ...by frames or
time?
thanks, Attila

Few issues with BI 2004s

Hello there,
I am having few issues with BI 2004s system. Its a new implementation.
-         When you create Data source using DB connect in new system, it creates with old version. I could see the SMALL square box next to the Data source. I would expect the system to generate new 2004s datasource.
-         Obviously the generated D/S wont allow us to create New Transformations. We have to create old transfer rules/update rule. I do see the option to migrate the D/S when I right click on it. But I get short dump when I try that and then you have to discard the D/S and create new one.
-         Also, it wont allow you to delete the DBConnect D/S although you have option to do that?
Anyone has faced these issues?
Performance issue with reporting:
I understand that you have to have portal in order to execute reports which we dont have at this client. They dont have time and money to invest right now. So we have created reports using BW 3.5 BEx Q.designer/WAD to run the reports on web. The report takes long time when you try to drill down on Material/Customer with only 150,000 records in Cube. The cube has just three dimensions (two char each) and 4 key figures. Any suggestion to improve?

Yes, I noticed it too and was thinking the same thing, blueaura.
I'm sure they want to ensure the scan is reliable. I keep my screen at a lower brightness to save power, and sometimes Starbucks scanners take a bit longer for it to register.
2) is already fixed.
3) is a feature, not a bug. If you are updating an app you already have installed, it doesn't bother to ask you for the password. Nice!

My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. Any tips?

My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.

I'm having a billing issue with my apple id. I got my first iPhone today and I've signe din etc however before i can download any apps etc i need to resolve an old payment apparently. The problem is i cant enter my new card details because no longer in US

I'm having a billing issue with my apple id. I got my first iPhone today and I've signe din etc however before i can download any apps etc i need to resolve an old payment apparently. The problem is i cant enter my new card details because the issue is registered to when i was in America and i require to pay the funds from an American source. Any ideas how i can resolve this? It wont accept my new card detail as im back in the UK. I think i have posted this in the wrong area but anyone got any ideas?
I have managed to change the rest of my accoutn being registered to the UK i think except this

Hi..
You can email Apple for help but the link is for the iTunes store not the Mac App Store. You've inadvertently poasted in the Using Mac App Store forum but that's ok. Billing issues are the same for the iTunes Store.
Click here > Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us
It wont accept my new card detail as im back in the UK
Your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

Few issues with N120

I got a few issues with the N120 netbook that I hope you could help me to sort out.
1.
First the brightness up/down keys. First I gave this fix a go.
http://www.sammynetbook.com/plugins/for … .php?29576
It works but its very unstable for me, sometimes it will get stuck and just turn the screen all the way down and then hang for some time before being able to turn the light back on. The icon will hang on the desktop too. Beside that it occasionally makes gnome panel freeze or really most of the time.
Then I gave .xbindkeysrc a try from the NC10 wiki.
#Brightness up/down
"xbacklight +10"
m:0x0 + c:111
"xbacklight -10"
m:0x0 + c:116
That seems to work fine however it is not binded to the Fn (just binded to up/down arrow) key I am sure I am missing something pretty simple here, but....
2.
Wifi Fn key binding is not working. xbindkeys -k gives me -
"(Scheme function)"
m:0x0 + c:75
Here I am simple not sure what "Scheme function" to use.
3.
I would like to blacklist the webcam just not sure what module to blacklist. I did check for a BIOS option but unfortunately there is none.

Other then these few issues all really seems to work really well. I have only had Arch installed for a week or so (not a lot of time on my hands atm though) but sorting these issues would would make it a 100% for me.
I would appreciate if you could help me out.

It uses notify-osd and displays the bar/icon. If the icon is missing, you will have to copy the notification-* svg files over from the human icon theme. Just in case you'd like it.
Depends what you want to do with the wireless. You can just bring the interface down with
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down
Or else you can remove the module with
sudo modprobe -r <module>

Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

Yes, BUT...
... there are many problems that are really easy to eliminate by replacing the Hard drive, including ones that have nothing to do with actual Drive Hardware failure. These include corrupted install of Mac OS X, its EFI partition, clobbered partition tables, or the appearance of Bad Blocks in a critical area.
Any of these problems can sometimes be eliminated by re-initializing the entire drive and writing Zeroes, and re-installing from scratch. The trouble is, this process takes hours to complete, and is not guaranteed to be successful -- you may still need a new drive after all that effort.
I learned from my Plumber that consumers have no appetite for solutions that might work, and detest return visits for any related problems whatsoever. You or your friend may have had your drive replaced, not because it actually failed, but because the situation was troublesome, and the provider thought you would not tolerate anything less than a crisp, complete fix on the first attempt. And based on the cost of technician time, it may have even been cheaper that way.

Having start-up issues with my 1st gen Macbook Pro

Hi everyone. I just started having start-up issues with my first generation Macbook Pro. It was working fine the other day when I last used it, but today I went to use it and it wont load up to my desktop...? It starts up (grey screen with the little swirly bar under the apple,) then it goes to a blue screen, then my background and dock appear, then (before any of my desktop files even show up,) it goes to a blue screen (that brightens up and then dims a little,) and it just keeps showing this with a little swirly progress symbol (shows when the screen is darker blue, then disappears when the screen is a brighter blue.) I've included a video that I took with my iPhone to show it situation. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance!

Safe Boot by restarting your computer while holding down the "shift" key. Safe booting disables all nonessential processes, often times allowing you to start up when you would otherwise crash.
As of OS X 10.5.6 Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache location in the /var/db/dyld directory. A corrupt cache here can cause the blue screen crash. Once you restart normally, the cache will be recreated. This should take care of the issue.

Use Software Update to update your os to 10.6.8 and anything else that needs to be updated.
