Help! Network error won't go away

I was setting up my Mac G4 running Tiger and was going to connect it to the network. I opened the Network Prefs and I get a drop-down error message that says "Your Network settings have been changed by another application."
This error message won't go away; if I click OK then the message just comes back. I have to force quit Network Preferences. There is no way to access network prefs while the error message appears. This message appears whether I'm connected (via ethernet) to the router or not.
I don't know what application could have changed my settings or how to change them back or how to make that error message go away. Any suggestions? Thanx.

Hi Ken,
To stop the pop-up, Go to System Preferences: Security. Check the box next to "Require password to unlock each secure system preference." Then lock Security.
Try this cure for Security update...

Popup Error - Won't Go Away

Recurring pop-up window on boot:
Popup Error
Failed to listen for incoming Popup jobs. You will not be able to use Popup printing for the duration of this session. Please report this incident to a system administrator.
How do I make this go away? I just upgraded my MacBook from Tiger to Leopard, everything else seems to work fine except for this strange error message. I haven't figured out what Popup printing is, don't really care. Just want this to go away.
Thanks...

I am having the same issue. Popup printing, I believe, involves printing over a network. For example, at school, I can print from my Mac to any access printer on the school's network through popup printing. It's a great feature, but isn't working because I'm getting this message error as well. I am making a list of all the problems I've had with Leopard since installing. I should be studying but instead I'm having to fix my Mac. Never thought I'd say that. Please, if anyone can help, I need my printer back.

Help - deleted files won't go away!

I am trying to permamently delete two files that I no longer need, but which had previously been deployed. Whenever I deploy my application, these files cause me to get the error "The asset is deployed and cannot be deleted. To delete the asset, first undeploy it." Okay, but it won't let me undeploy a single file, so I undeployed the entire application. Afterwards, I still wasn't able to delete the files.
Just wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to permanently get rid of these files?
Thanks!

Follow these steps to delete files from local machine.
1. Close Workbench ES2 (if already opened)
2. Goto C:\Users\<YOUR_USER_NAME>\Workbench ES2\<APP_SERVER_NAME>\<APPLCIATION_NAME>\<VERSION>
3. Delete the files which you no more required.
4.Open Workbench ES2 and click refresh on seletec application.
You will get rid of the "Cannot delete" problem.

Spotlight problem: privacy list error won't go away

My Spotlight suddenly stopped being able to find anything. So I tried dragging the main disk's icon onto (and then off of) the Privacy tab of Spotlight, to ask it to re-index. But it gave me the Privacy Index error. So I went to Terminal and did sudo rm -rf /.Spotlight-V100, which succeeded, but: the privacy list error is still there, and oddly - the one thing that used to be in my privacy tab is still there! I thought that info was somewhere in the /.Spotlight-V100/... folder - how is it still there?!? What's a better way to wipe that info and ask Spolight to re-do everything?

I'm ruddy well frustrated
And we understand that. Most of us have been in similar situations. But troubleshooting a problem is hard enough in real life. When all we have to go on is words typed here, it's of the utmost importance to be painstakingly precise. In your case, it is very often the solution to reboot the iPod while it's plugged into the wall, and you had never stated clearly that you had done that. Go back and read your previous posts if you doubt it. If we are able to help each other, we have to know exactly what has happened, and even then it's not easy. And again, we are all just fellow users who come here voluntarily to help each other, so all getting mad at us does is make people not want to help you.
There are several things that might be going wrong, but one that I would test is your cable. Perhaps some of the wires inside have broken and that's why it's not realizing it is plugged into the wall outlet. Do you have a friend that you can borrow a cable from to test that out? (And to answer your question about the dock, it won't make any difference.)

Keep getting a message to enter network password-won't go away.

I don't know if this is a mozilla problem, a windows problem, or a gmail problem. I just know that for the first time today, and in a span of 20 minutes, it has popped up on my screen 60 times. Annoying. I keep putting passwords in it, but none of them work. Top says Enter Network Password. Server smtp.gmail.com. Then User Name which is jennyjank, password, then save this password in your password list. Then it gives me an option to hit OK or Cancel. I keep canceling and closing, but it just keeps coming back. Help, please. Thanks - Jennifer

Hi jennyjank,
It sounds like there is a persistent network check somewhere. Is this happening only in webmail?
Do you use a firewall or an antivirus that has a filter for gmail smtp servers?
Please also try noscript or ad block plus to detect if there is a script on the page you can stop temporarily until the source is found.
If it a windows operating systems issue try changing this network option mentioned in the answer to the post here: [http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/windows-7-asks-enter-network-password-when/2a8e6d6f-74a1-43c7-8530-24e8522ea955]

Snapshot too old error won't go away ...

I am Oracle 10.2.0.3 on HP UNIX.
I have a 80GB database. I am doing full export with consistent=Y. I get following error towards the end of export:
. Exporting referential integrity constraints
. exporting stored procedures
. exporting operators
. exporting indextypes
. exporting bitmap, functional and extensible indexes
. exporting posttables actions
. exporting triggers
. exporting materialized views
. exporting snapshot logs
. exporting job queues
EXP-00008: ORACLE error 1555 encountered
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number 2 with name "_SYSSMU2$" too small
EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully
~
~
No other jobs are running or even users accessing the database at the time of export database. My undo table space size is now 6GB (I had started with 2GB and increasing it to 6GB) has not helped. Is there a way to consistently get rid of the error? I am assuming rest of my export is still valid.

What's the size of the UNDO tablespace? Just increase it

Cannot verify server error won't go away

I can not get this error to go away. I tried restoring on pc but have windows 8 and it's not recognizing the ipad. Any other ideas?

Three things to try...
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Registration Unsuccessful error won't go away

Registration Unsuccessful error message appears every time I open Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard. I recently loaded it onto new computer running Windows 8.1 and successfully registered it. I spoke to tech support and they confirm that it is registered on my new computer. I have tried all the options: submit again, register later and never register but it still comes up every time. Tech support did not know how to stop the message from appearing and suggested I ask the community. I tried the registry fix someone posted for Windows 7 but the path was not the same. I found the Adobe Viewer and changed it as recommended but it didn't work. Please don't recommend I purchase a newer copy of Acrobat - no money left after getting the new computer and A8 meets all my needs. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi Jodiwer,
ThankYou for posting on the forums, Adobe Acrobat 8 is not compatible with windows 7 and above.
Thanks,

Ipod error won't go away

My ipod says "Firewire connections are not supported. To transfer songs, connect the USB cable provided. Press center to dismiss". When I press the centre the message just comes back on, and when I connect my USB cable my computer says that Windows does not recognize it. My Ipod will charge and update new songs, but it won't turn off.

Hi phishy75,
Have you tried resetting your iPod? To reset an iPod:
First, toggle your iPod's "Hold" switch back and forth a couple of times.
Then, press and hold the Menu and Select (center) buttons together for 5-10 seconds.
If that doesn't work, then try forcing your iPod into disk mode, by following the steps here:
Putting iPod into disk mode
With the iPod in disk mode, connect it to your computer, and try restoring it in iTunes.
If you don't have any success with that (or getting the iPod recognized in iTunes for a restore), then you may just need to let the iPod's battery run down.

Backup Assistant Plus error won't go away.

Hello,
After Backup Assistant Plus was pushed to my phone i keep getting an application error:
Is there a way to disable Backup+ since i will probably never use it.
This is on a Samsung Stratosphere device.
Thanks,

Hi NickM219,
Application errors are no good! I know its important to have a properly working phone at all times. Let's get this resolved. If you are not going to use this great feature, you can remove it via MyVerizon http://bit.ly/xB4iTc . Sign in>Click " " sign next to I want to>Plan>Change features>Remove Backup assistant plus> save changes. The device will no longer prompt you to use this application, however the app icon will remain on the device. Keep me posted.
Thanks,

My macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

my macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

This can be caused by a number of issues.
Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.

Help Product Improvement Program dialog box won't go away

When I re-opened the beta version of Fireworks CS4 last
night, there was a dialog box asking me whether or not I wanted to
participate in helping Adobe with product enhancement by submitting
information on my usage of Fireworks, but the bloody thing will not
close. There's options to select yes, no and a few other things,
but whenever I select anything it won't go away. Does anyone else
have this problem? And if so, is Adobe aware of it?

Yes, this problem has been reported already in the CS4 Beta
forum.
Reading
that topic, it appears that only Mac users reported the error
so far, and the only way out was to quit and restart Fireworks. I
think it would be a good idea to post your case there too.

I FIXED IT.
The issue was a folder name. For some reason, a folder was name Fersions when it should have been called Version. I have no clue why it was named that way, but I named it correctly and the error disappeared.
