ICal Graphical Bug?

hello all (my first post),
http://homepage.mac.com/nickbaines/PhotoAlbum1.html
the above is a screenshot of my desktop. the strange box you can see is the same size of the info pane of whichever task/calendar entry i am currently editing in ical.
it is always there whether i expose the desktop or just minimise any open windows. if i click out of the task/calendar entry so the info pane just shows the name of the calendar selected on the right, then all is fine. no box.
it doesn't seem to occur when the info pane is detached (as clicked in the window menu).
has anybody experienced this before? i couldn't find any mention of it in google or the forums here.
i look forward to hearing from any/all of you.
thanks,
nick.
ps am running latest versions of everything, including iCal 2.03
12" G4 PB 1.5GHz 1.25GB Mac OS X (10.4.6)

nick,
Strange indeed!
Download and reapply the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo for PPC.
If that is unsuccessful, Archive and Install 10.4 and then reapply the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo for PPC: You can choose to preserve your user and network settings before installing. This option automatically imports existing users, Home directories, and network settings. This also skips the Setup Assistant after installation.Let us know what happens.

[Win8.1] Video fullscreen graphic bug

Hello,
i've a big Problem.
I've found a new Sony Vaio multi-flip 15 under the christmas tree ;-).
Now i've installed all Updates incl. Windows 8.1.
All is wonderful, but when i watch some Youtube-Videos in fullscreen mode i got this graphic-bug (see below).
With Firefox i've just this bug in fullscreen mode. With IE also in small mode.
Windows 8.1
Firefox 26.0
Adobe Flash Player 11
The Problem is solved if i disable the hardware acceleration, but then i get a big version of the player-UI and bad graphic.
With the Windows 8-App "Hyper for Youtube" i got the same problem without any Browser.
Thanks in advance

You've already found one fo the two possible solutions... disabling HW accelleration.
The other is to update your video drivers. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765 (Update through the adapter manufacturer - NOT Windows)

Graphical bugs after 10.6.4 update

Graphical bugs after 10.6.4 update
- If Adobe Bridge CS5 is opened and a flash video is played with Safari 5 the whole desktop Vsync will get disabled.
- iTunes 9.2 CoverFlow showing corrupt images for blank cover art.
- Google Earth showing corrupt image as viewport after opening a website from within the application.
Examples of the Google Earth corrupt viewport (it's funny I can still see my bootcamp desktop even trough I have been into OS X for an hour):

Your MBP has a different graphics card, Sig - nVidia 9600M, rather than the nVidia 8600M that fjtorsol has.
Fjtorsol, there are issues with the nVidia drivers in 10.6.4 being pretty buggy, but I'm not clear on exactly which Macs are affected.
I would suggest running a Repair Permissions then reinstalling 10.6.4 from the combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048 to make sure that your system is correctly updated.
If that doesn't work, your best bet is to revert to 10.6.3 until the graphics drivers are fixed.

Graphic bug in system preferences

hi. when i open the sys preferences, i always have a graphic bug, with for example the printer icon squared and very big. any solutions? thanks

Try trashing ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. (Quit System Preferences first.) If that doesn't work, try trashing ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.cache.

Graphic bug with HTML5 video

Hi,
I am experiencing an ugly graphic bug in Safari 5.0.2. Looks like this: http://tinyurl.com/24cl9t8
Occurs on this website: http://cargocollective.com/woodyholl when you open a project (girl on the beach for example)
Background video is embedded via <video>, all layers above are relatively simple HTMLCSSjs. The project pages contain embedded videos (vimeo etc.) and javascript slideshows.
Did this happen to anyone else? Is there a fix for it?
Thanks in advance,
Flo

the bug occurs even with just a js-slideshow inside a project, no Flash involved
Ah, I misunderstood.
Of course, it might be a bug affecting some machines/OS builds - see http://bugreport.apple.com for that.
If you want to track down a possible cause on your mac - another install/different boot disk should eliminate any software cause. Or there might be settings for the specific graphics card?.
Certainly some graphics issues seem only to show with safari and/or flash, despite being a hardware problem at heart. The Mac Pro section here would be the place to explore that, with specific card details & after running the hardware test from dvd.

I have Graphical bugs/problems in Lion

I restored menubar icons after a small mod to them.
Log back in and all off the sudden every field where I click is pink en loading icons are NOT how they should be!
I can't restore with Time Machine because when I activate it, the graphical bugs are also there.
Hopefully somebody will help me with this ;-)

Sounds like your "small mod" damaged the system. Try rebooting into recovery mode (hold down command-R at startup) and restore your entire system from the last Time Machine backup before you made that mod. Alternately, if you don't want to restore everything, you could just reinstall the system from recovery mode, which will overwrite the current system with a new one, but leave all your apps and data alone.

Logic Pro 8 graphic bug inOS X 10.9

Logic Pro 8 has a graphic bug since update to OS X 10.9. The the position tracker turns everything behind it into black in the the arrangement window while playing or recording - Is there a possibility to fix this bug?

Blueberry wrote:
Well, Logic Pro 8 was shipped 2 OS versions before Mavericks and is many years old. I don't think this is a push to force you to spend money, otherwise they would have done the same for Logic Pro 9 (which does work on Mavericks just fine)
That is, the very last update of Logic Pro-9, 9.1.8.

ICal invitations bug

Hi, I noticed that when my girlfriend sent me an invitation from her .mac to my .mac address, when I accepted, it returned the response to her work email address. Looking at the event and clicking on the drop down triangle on the organiser, it shows both her email addresses (from my Address Book) with the work one first. So I presume the mail response goes to the first email address listed rather than the address used to send the invitation which would be the correct behaviour.
No help requested/expected - just an observation.
S

I can now explain (I think) why nobody else seems to be able to reproduce this bug - it's caused by using Entourage X with iCal! Invitations sent TO Entourage X are broken when passed into iCal on the recipient's Mac.
Solution: upgrade to Entourage 2004 or switch to Mail. The SENDER's mail program doesn't seem to have an affect.

ICal intel bug?

I manage a network of about 20 macs. I had a problem today with 2 users and iCal. They launched iCal and suddenly the calendars have dissappeared. or have they? Technically they havent. the data is still in ~User/Library/Application Data/iCal. And when I open up iCal the info pain displays the name of the last calendar they had used. But the calendars pain is empty. If i switch to day or week view iCal crashes. I took one users data directory and copied it over to a ppc machine, launch ical and it worked with out a hitch. all of the machines are on os x 10.4.8 and current as of about a week or 2 ago.
any ideas?

Just found out that it might be not an intel bug - just a corrupted calendar...
It sounds like you have a data corruption of some sort in your user data. Make a new user and try using iCal in the new user account. If this works ok then the problem is within your user account.
If so, try these things in order to see if they will help:
0.
Backup you iCal data.
Open iCal and go to the File menu and choose Back up Database... to save a copy of your calendar data to your Desktop, just in case something goes wrong.
1.
Refresh your preference files.
There are some preference files related to iCal in your user's Library > Preferences. These are called:
com.apple.iCal.alarmsCache.plist
com.apple.iCal.AlarmScheduler.plist
com.apple.iCal.helper.plist
com.apple.iCal.plist
Quit iCal and move these files to your desktop. When you start iCal they will be re-created in the Preferences folder with the default values as needed. This does not affect your calendar data, just preference choices.
You should go into iCal preferences and make any changes you want there after doing this.
If this solves your problem there is no need to do any of the following.
2.
Check the calendars in turn.
In iCal un-check all the calendars in the list. You can do this by Command-Clicking one calendar's check box.
Then do the following with each calendar in turn: Check the calendar's check box and see if your problems still exist. If iCal seems to be ok, then un-check the check box and select the next calendar. If the symptoms still exist then this calendar is probably corrupted.
If you find a corrupted calendar in iCal, select it in the calendar list and from the File menu choose Export.. and export a copy of the calendar to your Desktop. Still in iCal, from the Edit menu choose Delete to remove the calendar from iCal. Then from the File menu choose Import... and select the 'Import an iCal file', find the calendar file you saved to your Desktop and import it.
(BTW The iCal calendar data is stored in your user's Library > Application Support > iCal.)
3.
Reset sync history.
If you have sync'd your calendar data there may be a corruption in the data stored by Sync Services which will be passed back into iCal when it syncs next.
Open iSync and from it's preferences select 'Reset Sync History' and in the confirmation dialog choose 'Reset Sync History' again.
I hope this helps to solve your problems.
Best wishes
Christoph

ICal syncing bug?

Hello,
I don't know if I am posting in a right place, but..
I have an application, which syncs with iCal. And sometimes I get into trouble:
Situation:
a) in iCal is a Calendar an task in it, pushed by my application before.
b) my application deletes those two records
c) my app creates new identical calendar (with new id of cource) and a event in it.
Result:
iCal is still showing deleted empty calendar. It is not possible to delete it manually from iCal. It gones, if I turn iCal off and start it over.
If I pull the truth from sync services, when iCal is showing deleted calendar, there is no such info about it.
Syncrospector logs information is available if required.
I wonder if this is a bug of iCal, or something I do not understand.
Thanks for advices.
MR.
PB G4 12" Mac OS X (10.4.5) ical v. 2.0.3

There is virtually no one here who would understand what you are asking about. Push, pull, the truth, SyncServices and Syncrospector are terms almost unheard of outside of the developer community.
Write to me off line and I will send you a link to post your question to.

MS-6368 graphics bug

I'm a newcomer on MSI product as well as this forum.
Recently, I purchase a MS-6368 MB with a Celeron 1.3G. I do admit it's a high value for money (CPU+MB costs me just about HKD$800 or USD$100 in Hong Kong). As I'm not a 3D gamer and not expect much in integrated graphics performance (apart from playing DVD/VCD occasionally), however, I found that there're a lots of undoubtful flaw in graphics.
Here's my bug reported against VT8601T based MS-6368 MB. It happened even I freshly installed the system by formatting the whole harddisk and of course no tweaking ever.
Also, may I know should I report the bug to VIA and how to do so?

It casued the problem even in displaying simple HTML or text file.

It happened on both WinDVD 4.0 and PowerDVD XP 4.0 I believe it's a color dithering problem and the color is "blocky".

10.6.4 / iMac ATI Radeon HD 5750 graphics bugs

Once again, ATI drivers suck, this time my new iMac has clearly visible artifacts that make pretty much any game unplayable. I'd attach a screenshot except you can't here.
Is this a known bug already, if so, when will there be a fix?

I think I've the same problem.
I try to play the sims 3 for eg. and i've an error of unsupported graphic card :S

IOS 4.2.8 iCal Alarm Bug?

When I create an event in iCal on my iPhone 4 (Verizon iOS 4.2.8) I will set an alarm to notify me of the event, set for an hour before. The alarm/notification does not go off until 3 hours after the start of the event. Has anyone else experienced this?

Figured this out myself. This is not a bug. Apple has an option for "time zone support" in Settings for iCal in case you are in a different time zone than where you originally created an event in iCal. By default this is turned on, and is set to Cupertino - I am located in New York. Hence the oddly timed notifications.

ICal import bug when creating calendars in iPhoto 2011

Hi,
I just created a calendar in the new iPhoto 2011 and imported an iCal calendar to the project.
What I discovered is that it only imports one event per day to the calendar in iPhoto, although the calendar in iCal has sometimes more than one event per day.
Fx. in my calendar in iCal I have two events on a certain date, f.x my mothers birthday and my son's birthday on January 18th. However when importing this calendar to the calendar project in iPhoto only my mothers name gets imported. This was not an issue in iPhoto 2010.
Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Definitely a bug and unforgivable given the time of year - I usually order a couple of calendars as Christmas presents - If I can't order them in time for Christmas then Apple have lost the business.
It seems to me that iLife 11 was rushed out for Christmas. First the appalling upgrade problems and then the realisation that Calendars were not included. Two patches later and we still have an un-useable Calendar.
The worst part about it is, it's not obvious - I wonder how many people have ordered calendars and not noticed the missing Birthdays. I can see a lot of disappointed friends and relatives next year whose birthdays will be missed.
My only hope is an old backup of my Macbook - pre upgrade. If I can boot from that disk, import my recent photos, import the latest version of the iCal Calendar events, I can recreate the Calendar with iPhoto '09. Not sure I can be bothered,
