I have started having getting incomplete Cd recordings,missing parts of songs.

About a month ago I started having problems with spaces in songs that were blank for the remaining time of that song and then the next song would start on the cd. This might happen 4 or 5 times during the rest of the cd. I never had this problem before. My computer will make data cd's just fine only problem is with audio cd's.
I can still import cd's to iTunes with no problem.

After much searching and a LONG visit to the Genius Bar, here's what I got:
The problem: Despite normal playback in iTunes, the files for these songs have become corrupted, causing the sound to stop when converted to CD audio files and burned to disk. All other aspects of the file remain intact; thus, each song's "space on the disk" is still intact...it's just silent. This probably happened when the PC I copied the files from had a HD failure.
The solution: Delete and download again, or re-copy from the original CD--whatever you need to do to make a new file for the song on your HD.

I have started to get this error message: "5.1.3 bad address syntax" in my email account. I am using Outlook 2011. It does not appear to be affecting sending or receiving email. I have no idea what it means or how to resolve the issue. Any advice? My email account is through Optimum online and I am using Airpost Express.
P.S. The error sound "bong" is driving us nuts!

Please post on the Office for Mac product forums that Microsoft hosts. It's their product and they can best troubleshoot the issue.

I have started to get the message on screen after I start my pc(apply SyncNotifier.exe the procedure entry point xml Text reader ConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxm12.dll.

The message I keep getting above has started to appear each time I start my pc. How do I deal with it? I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes but no luck.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the libxml2.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Restart the programme all should be well
In case that your OS is (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "libxml2.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "libxml2.dll" to the location.
5. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

The Kernal Panics had become so frequent that my iMac was becoming unusable. I do have a 2006 macBook that seemed to be behaving fine. I has all the same software except for the virus protection (the iMac has Intego VirusBarrier and the MacBook uses Symantec Antivirus). As has been noted in this discussion, I was beginning to suspect VirusBarrier might be the problem. But as indicated in my crash log (and noted here by several others) the Cisco VPN was being called out. Researched the VPN configuration that I was accessing and discovered that a new feature of the Anyconnect VPN software was a "web security" option that was not used on the VPN I was accessing. Before I switched virus protection, I uninstalled the VPN software and re-installed without the web security feature. It has been a week without kernal panics. I have had one crash that appeared to be related to Lotus Notes, but no kernal panics. For those of you wrestling with the same issue, may want to try this solution...

I have a time capsule that has worked flawlessly for several years. I recently upgraded my iMac OS to 10.8.4 and coincidently (or not) have started having some issues with backups. When I go into time machine, it struggles to find the time capsule disk

I have to unplug my time capsule and reboot it. Is there a diagnostic routine I can run or any error detection I can look for?

You are absolutely right.. when apple changed significant features in Lion and Mountain Lion .. they introduced a bunch of issues into networking which are bugs to this day..unacknowledged.. and without much that will fix them.. other than your reboot strategy.. which is like.. well that other OS.. where continual reboots are considered normal.
Old TC may also just suffer from age.. we continually tell people they have a lifespan.. 3years is the reliable span.. after that expect anything.. sudden death.. slow decline.. continual hassles and problems. If the backups are important to you.. then it is telling you in a very clear way.. replace me.. I am no longer happily providing services promised.
Now to specifics.. we don't know what the problem is.. if we knew we could give some work around.
The problem is odd in that it doesn't affect everyone.. if it starts .. people find it starts several months in to ownership.. it is never cured.. or even curable.. something like DNS or ARP table is being lost.. but it is not either of those things.
Is there a diagnostic routine I can run or any error detection I can look for?
Nothing much shows up anywhere. Including the TC log or local logs. It simply has lost the TC disk but not internet.
So.
Some things do help.
I don't know if you have pondini's resources.. TM is a complex piece of software.. it has multiple issues.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Look at A1 .. load the widget.
A5 .. verify the backup.
A4 .. reset TM.
All of those things can help.. look at some of the typical problems.. C12 and C17 being the most common since Lion.. and exacerbated in Mountain Lion.. not fixed.
Some suggestions.
1. Keep names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. See C9 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
2. Do not use 7.6.3 firmware... go back to 7.6.1 or even better 7.5.2 on an old one.
Firmware downgrade is easy in new utility. Hold down the option key whilst selecting version.
3. I recommend a very short dhcp lease time.. 20min for example. In whatever device is the router .. that can help keep things up to date.. and use dhcp reservation again to see if the address info helps to keep things updated.
4. Do turn on ipv6 local link.. which you need to anyway with 6.3 utility.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
5. If you are using a desktop.. an external drive is faster.. more reliable and easier than TC for Time Machine backups..
6. Consider using CCC or another backup software.. if you want to continue to use network drive.
7. Although using 6.3 airport utility has some advantages.. it is also devoid of a lot of tools that are in v5.6 airport utility.. well worth loading into at least one computer on the network.. if you only have Mountain Lion now here is one method.
How to load 5.6 into ML.
1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
2. Download and install unpkg.
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, drill down.. applications, utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.

I am getting the 150:30 error in Photoshop Elements. I am using English as my language so that should not be an issue. I have restarted the computer but to no avail. I am furious at Adobe for letting this go on so long. I see posts with this same issue from October 2009. You would think that the Adobe engineers could have found a way to resolve this issue by now. There seem to be a lot of people with this problem and it is inexcusable.

Have you already ran the workarounds/solutions mentioned in the link below? try the LicenseRecovery toolkit and see if that helps?

I have started having problems viewing embedded videos in Safari.

Everything was fine on my iPad 3 until a few weeks ago when the embedded YouTube videos in the forum I visit (using Safari) stopped playing. I get the message...
Your browser does not currently recognise any of the video formats available.
Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML 5 video.
...the thing is though that the videos will play if I open a new tab and go directly to YouTube (I don't use the app) and they will play if use the Atomic Web app to browse the interent.
I just want my Safari back to how it was, oh one more thing the videos play fine if I browse the same forum using Safari on my iPhone 4S.
Any real help will be very much appreciated, thanks in advance.

I am using OS X Mountain Lion. I really dont want to have to reinstall anything. An OS Reinstall is really no less annoying than a Reinstall of the CS6 package. Sadly it looks like this may be the only way forward. Just hope I can do it without losing too much from the machine as it is my work machine.
Thanks for your help and for the link. I just wish Adobe was more directly contactable about issues that come up when using their products.

I use Magic iDVD to burn complete movies and have started having a problem multiplexing and burning. I need to know what I can do about it so I can burn my movies.

I have been burning movies with iDVD for several years and once in a while it has trouble multiplexing. Usually I can fix it by doing a combination fix of turning off my laptop and unplugging for 20 minutes. Then when I'm ready to turn it back on, I plug it in, wait five seconds then turn it on. I then clean the disc drive with a dry brush cleaner disc. That has usually done the trick. Not any more. I'm stuck and don't know what else I can try. I have plenty of space on my hard drive, about 70 GB, which has always been sufficient for burning discs. If there is anyone out there whoi can help me, I'd sure appreciate it.

This post by Bengt Wärleby discusses many potential multiplexing issues: Multiplexing Error: Apple Support Communities
Also follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

I have started having problems with the png dialogue box in Photoshop cs6

When I go to save the image I am working on, the PNG Dialogue box is black , I mean that the radial and submit buttons show up but the rest is just black so i cannot see exactly what I am doing. I cannot work out how to fix this and would really like to avoid a total reinstall of my CS6 package.
This issue does not happen using the PSD or JPG save options either so i am baffled.
Kind Regards

How can I turn off the annoying yellow boxes that have started appearing?

It seems that recently I have started having annoying yellow boxes appearing when I hover over thing in the finder window. This is something that I didn't have going on in the previous 3 versions of Mac OS X.
Here's an example...
How can I get rid of them?

This appears to be a third party extention of some sort with the bright yellow background? Start there if you modified.

My ipad gets a black bar over part of the screen then freezes up, please help

Just today my 16gb ipad 2 ,bought in December 2011, started to get a black bar over part of the screen. Sometimes 3/4 of the screen sometimes 1/4 then it freezes up and will not do anything. If I try to reboot it I get a faint backlit only. Any help would be appreciated!

On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

Hi Kharels
Just posted this reply to 2 others with same sort of question:
I have the same issue as i have my own email address and only want to use.
There are two ways around this annoying problem. The first is to set up your own domain email account alongside your iCloud one, and when you go to send each email tap on From and you get a choice of emails addresses to reply from... ie your own domain or the iCloud one. This is tedious though.
The other is to set up your iCloud email as normal, then create a new one altogether. Choose 'Other' when creating this new account. Then put for the incoming server mail.me.com, along with your user name and password. For the outgoing server put the server you want to use - ie your own domain one. This is therefore a hybrid account and does work.
Now switch off the email for iCloud (leaving on Calendar, Address Book etc). Switch on the email for your hybrid account (which of course is iCloud incoming as well).
Providing you have directed your own domain email address to your me.com one, you will find the iPhone should behave itself and you can use the folders etc and these will synch with your Mac ok.
Hope this work for you - let us know.

We have had Verizon Wireless service since 2007. We have 6 lines on our account. Unfortunately in 2012 when I (903.647.0073) upgraded from the iPhone4s to the iPhone 5 I started having reception problems. I started having dropped calls in my home. I had to go outside to get reception without dropped calls. I was told that because of metal in my home I would have to purchase a Network Extender for $250. And we HAVE not metal in our home. AND our other lines all work fine. I felt this was ridiculous. We already pay $350+/month for service and I should NOT have to purchase additional equipment for a service that I already pay for. The manager of our local store at the time gave us at no cost a Samsung Network Extender. It worked beautifully until about a month ago. I went to our local Verizon store and was told that I would have to purchase an extender. THIS is RIDICULOUS. We have been loyal customers for over 7 years and have been very satisfied with our service. Unless this issue can be resolved without purchasing an extender we will be switching our service as our lines come up for renewal. I regret this as we have been very happy with our service. But we should NOT have to purchase anything extra for one line that will not get good reception. Again, we pay $350+/ month for a service that does not work properly, simply RIDICULOUS! Currently the "sys" light flashes red (slow) and the GPS light remains red. Please help this very frustrated customer.

Regardless with what carrier your with you might have the same issue, My recommendation would be to get a router that will help you with viewing live traffic and keep a tally of your usage and any device connected to your internet connection. You can go with the peplink balance 20 and be able to look at your traffic by the hour, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. Look for trends, see what computers or devices are doing what I attached a screen shot so you can see an example of mine. You can purchase the router at 3gstore
