ICal does not work properly since the last OS update

Hi everybody,
I run a Macbook 15 Retina RAM 16Gb with Mac OS 10.8.4. Over the past months (I think after updating the OS), iCal has not been working properly. TO make a long story short, as you can see on the screen cap, it is no longer possible to select the kind of calendar/color etc when right clicking. In order for example to create a "Meetings" event (see left column on the screen cap), what i need to do now, is to find a previous event (i.e. created before iCal stopped to work) then copy and paste it to the time when I want it to happen in the future and then modify it. Not convenient at all.
This is kind of surreal (that such a bug has not been fixed yet) to given the price of the Mac and that iCal is part of the core apps of the OS. I looked over the Internet and did not find a solution. But I must have missed things. Hence I would be very very grateful if anyone could help me.
Thanks a lot.

Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
I tried to uninstall the application but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
Thanks for your help.

Dynamic Height in Graphs does not work properly when the graph is in an list

Help please,
I have an report in SQL Server 2008 (SP1) Reporting Services which uses Dynamic Height to dynamically increase the size of the graph for the data. For a single dataset this works great!
When I place this graph in a list/tablix (to display this graph on each group) things go bad... Only the first graph on every page is resized, all other graphs on the same page are equal in size of the first!
When I place a pagebreak on the lists property all graphs are drawn fine!! But then I will have a page for every question in my data (which can be a lot!)
What is going on here? Please help.

Hi Jerry,
thanks for your reply, but this does not work. The graphs are now all the same size (the size of the first one that is), and on the same page for that matter...
It looks like the renderer calculates the value of the dynamic height only once on a page in stead of each graph. That's a bug in my opinion.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
The inner workings of the report are like this: The data contains anwers from a survey by question, so i have a unknown count of answers with each question; I placed a list on my report with a groupingproperty on the question asked. On this list i place a horizontal bar-graph which must grow in height when it is too small. The dynamic height should be calculated like this =70 + (CountDistinct(AnswerValue.Value)*10) & "pt".
When i place this calculation in a textbox, every item in the group is calculated correctly. Each graph is drawn, but the graphs are sized only to the size of the first graph on the page. When I place a pagebreak after each list-repeat (so i get each question on a seperate page) each graph is drawn correctly! This results however in more than 100 pages with all used for just a few centimeters (think about trees!).
I'm using SQL 2008 / SSRS2008 with SP1 by the way ( without SP1, the behaviour is the same).
Any more suggestions are appreciated.

X isn't working anymore since the last system update.

Hi there,
I'm using Arch for a couple of months and didn't need a forums login until now. But currently I've broken somehow my system and can't get it working anymore. So I need some help of you.
The Problem:
Arch Linux is running on my computer at work as a virtual machine inside VMWare Player 6.0.2-1744117. Host ist Win 8.1. After the system-update xorg didn't start anymore. Neither with kdm nor with plain X. When I start the X-Server (X as user or systemctl start kdm), the cursor of the tty console appears in the upper left corner, but isn't blinking. That's all. Only a black screen. It seems, X itself isn't starting. There's no process in ps and no graphics mode switch. In journalctl there's no (error) message.
What I've done:
Last week I made a system update, xorg-server was a part of it:
yaourt -Qi xorg-server
Name : xorg-server
Version : 1.15.1-1
Description : Xorg X server

I've tried a downgrade to xorg-server 1.5.0.5, but it didn't help.
I would prefer the vmware graphics driver, but temporary the vesa driver would do the job too. I can access the system via ssh from outside. Inside the VMWare after starting X I can't switch to the tty consoles anymore.
Any ideas?
Thanks so far.

I upgraded everything today including open-vm-tools-dkms and it still does not work.
MickeyKnox has the same problem: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=182971
This is his codebin, same errors I have: http://codebin.org/view/53bcafc9
Could this be related to this report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40781?
How could I install the version from the git?
[EDIT] I also tried downgrading mesa and mesa-libgl to Version 10.1.4-1 to no avail. (see bug report FS#40781 above)
[EDIT2] At least I can now use [ALT]+[F2] to log into the system without arch-chrooting from a live medium. So it hangs "less bad" ...

My BBZ10 is not working properly since my last update (OS 10.3.1.2243

OK so to start on a positive - I have been the biggest advocate of Blackberry over the last 3 years and have found it a really easy phone to just pick up and use without having to spend much time with user manuals. I started on a Torch and am now using the BB Z10. I found the switch nice and easy & have loved both phones. Up until now, bar the odd little niggle, I have loved using Blackberry.
I had a notification to update to OS 10.3.1.2243 (no matter how often I read my notification, it would keep changing to unread and start flashing again) which was a nuisance, but I needed to sort through my notifications first and delete FB as the last update I did, restored ALL my FB notifictions since I'd had the phone, so definitely needed to avoid that scenario.
I could see there had been some changes - layout different, easier to delete messages etc which is great, HOWEVER, I am really disappointed with how it's messed my phone up which I have never had before. There is now a new line in BBM that wasn't there before which covers the message that I am typing, so I can't actually see what I am typing. Every time I unlock my phone, my screen enlarges so I can't really see much on the hub/notification screen and it defaults to the hub which it didn't do before), my ringtone is much softer than it was previously and BBM no longer has a ringtone. Whatsapp, (the current winner of sending messages as I can actually see what I'm typing) actually has a tone but it's really soft, so not only can I not see what I am typing, but I can't hear when I get a message either, even if it's a person who has a specific ringtone for BBM
My notifications keep freezing (can be when I am on looking at email notifications, Facebook etc) and some of my keys keep freezing when I am trying to type (p is the worst) and is generally making using my BB highly irritating. In fact there are times that I am so irritated that I want to throw my phone on the floor and jump on it. There is nothing wrong with the phone as it worked perfectly prior to the update, so this must be bugs in the new OS which is not good at all as these problems should have been ironed out prior to release.
Does anyone know me how to fix this or can tell me when the next update is out to fix the bugs? It's all good and well adding all these great features, but if they mess up the basics, none of that is important and if I was nearing the end of my contract, I would definitely not be going Blackberry which is a shame as I've never had an update problem before with BB.
Solved!

Hi bunjamin,
just go to BlackBerry World, and update all your apps including BBM.

you can turn off the magnifying glass :

you can deactivate the "reset to Hub view" :

My Bionic does not work properly. The phone should not have been released...dead Camels

I took my Bionic back to Verizon yesterday. I am not getting 4G data, and it will not work in the car dock. When I got to the store, I had 4G, and it worked perfectly in the dock, all he did was sit it in. This phone must only work in the store, maybe that is why they released it before it was ready.
The Verizon technician told me that there were problems with the phone, but that the responsibility belonged to Motorola. He said there was going to be an update in November and that I should wait. This concerns me because it means Verizon will pass the buck on this one.
What choice do I have? My return period is way over. I am paying for a service that I don't have yet I can't get out of it. If the phone can't be fixed by a software update, then what? At that point, I will either hope for a class action suite, or cancel my contract and pay $350 so that I can get a decent phone....iPhone from AT&T. That would be cheaper than buying a new phone from Verizon under my current contract. I can't keep a phone that never works.
I think yesterday was like the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I tried for 15 min to get the car dock to work, and nothing would turn it on. That is when I just drove to Verizon. I figured they should see one more unhappy customer in person instead of just online...alas, no one there gave a **bleep** and they are still trying to sell the Bionic to the unsuspecting customer. It should be pulled off of the shelf until it is fixed.

Subvi does not work properly when called inside a vi

Hello Every body
thanks for your help. i am using a sub vi for sine signal generation. as a vi it works fine. but when i called this subvi inside another VI it gives some problems. for example timer indicator works properly.it reinitializes as well in the sub vi, but in the main VI it does not work properly. means does not count the time.in the sub vi on the fly i can change the values of frequency and amplitude in real time, but when i use as sub vi, it does not reponse as i change the values in the control arrays.similarly pause and continue works properly in the sub vi, but once again in the main VI, it does not work properly.graph indicator also work properly in the sub vi. but here once again it does not work properly in the main VI.the pause resume indicator also does not blink, when it is continue. in the subvi it blinks very well.generally why the sub vi does not work properly inside the VI?i am sending my VI and sub vis.
any tips would be highly appreciated.
thanks
Regards

I just want to add some more details to Dan's answer. The subVI is acting exactly like you've coded it. The mistake is in understanding how subVIs work. When you call a subVI (or a function in any other language), you pass some parameters to it, the subVI does it's thing and returns values. the subVI does not accept new parameters from the calling VI until it returns to the caller and the caller runs the subVI again. In your case, you have a subVI with a while loop. You have some front panel control wired to the subVI's stop terminal. When first called, the value is false. So the subVI will keep running until the subVI's stop button becomes true but you cannot change it from main until the subVI finishes and returns so the subVI will never stop. As Dan says, the solution is pass references of front panel controls to the subVI and have the subVI monitor those references for changes and to update references to indicators on Main. You subVI does not need any front panel controls or indicators of it's own.

Flashback Reclaimable Does Not Work Properly

We saw the strange behavior of flashback reclaimable space as it does not work properly if the PERCENT_SPACE_USED of v$flash_recovery_area_usage is near to 100 (99.9x). As we are running Oracle 10gR2 (Cluster & RAC) to manage our production RAC database, it is a two node RAC. on IBM AIX 6.1
Today at 9:00 AM, we observed that 97% reclaimable space was available. And db_recovery_file_dest_size is 460 GB out of 600 GB (mount point). No other process is being used this mount point for any IO, it is reserved for flashback only. We left 140 GB space free on mount point to over come any dynamic space requirement for flashback.
At 10:00AM we received out of space message in alert log file and during 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM 10 to 15 archive logs were created and at 9:50AM some archive log were also deleted automatically by oracle server(default behavior). Please see the output below.

It is really a strange behavior, please is there any one who face the same issue or what may be the reason for this ?

Dear CKPT,
we daily have 3 times archive log backup and after every backup we do crosscheck. as is mentioned earlier, 99% space was shown as used and but on the other hand 97% space was also shown as reclaimable. so on these bases we are very confused , why oracle behaves like this and throw error in alert log as below

HTML Editor in HTMLDB Does Not Work Properly

Dear Developer,
The HTML Editor provided in the Build 1.5.0.00.33 (9i) does not work properly. The problems are:
1. When you press Enter Key in HTML Editor tag is
added instead of tag. This causes inconvenience to the end user while editing & displaying the fields formatted by HTML Editor.
2. Similar problems occur when Bullets are used.
3. Maximum field width for varchar is only 4000 & there is no other field provided by HTML DB which can store more than 4000 characters information.
I would like to know whether:
1. The problem is fixed in the newest buid ?
2. Is there any workaround or am I missing something, please comment.
I am using HTML Editor so that user can write long free flowing HTML text, but end users have inconvenience.
Thanks.

Hi Ayush,
The answer to your question 3 is increase the size of the Maximum width on the item. I increased it to 32767 and was able to insert into a clob. I think the limit is 32767.

If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem. I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.
