ICal possible bug: cannot select appointment, quit, or create a new one
Hello there,
I'm having this weird issue with iCal where after some time of inputting appointments and changing them around, one of the appointments seems to remain locked together with the mouse. In other words, no matter what I try to do I cannot because that one appointment keeps following my mouse. When I left click and don't move my mouse around, nothing happens. When I right click my mouse button, the column gets selected, but nothing else happens. When I left click and drag as if I wanted to create a new appointment somewhere, the one blocked appointment keeps popping up right there and the new appointment never gets created.
This is beyond my understanding so I'm asking for help. I have already trashed preferences and followed another post "how to completely reset ical" which was not entirely resolved, but I have deleted everything they listed there and I can't get rid of all the appointments. (This is quite ironic, because I've lost iCal databases quite a few times and was never able to get them back, and now I'm having trouble messing it up!)
I have also recorded my screen to give you a better visual to the blah blah above.

redsteven1,
Thank you for replying. It is indeed a one-of-a-kind behavior. It has however fixed itself. It has not happened in a month now. I have not upgraded or otherwise changed anything on that computer.

Cannot update published website without errors: requires deletion of site, then creating a new one.
Hello all,
This has been a long persisting issue since we purchased Muse in January 2013, but has since then led to a shutdown of my office's website and email in September. Multiple support technicians were eventually able to restore the website, as well as our email function, but the core of the problem lies in the fact that when I update my website, it becomes entirely scrambled, and the only solution provided to me right now is that I need to delete my site completely (through Adobe Business Catalyst) and then create a new one, while transferring over the same domain information. I have yet to receive guidance on how to resolve this issue properly:
September 06 Email: detailing the series of events
Good evening, Zak,
I am reluctant to bring this to your attention because of the comprehensive nature of the following, but I have been told that my absolute last effort should be to contact you with what has been a persistent problem since the last time we had mediated this particular issue. Essentially, when publishing a website multiple times, sooner than later the format becomes scrambled when viewed online. I am being told I am the only customer known to have this issue, and that it needs to be investigated deeper.
This is a blurb from our original conversation in March 2013:

I'm also puzzled. This isn't a problem I've seen before for a site published to Business Catalyst.
Please try publishing again, this time to a new temporary site (they're free). You can choose this option under More Options in the Publish dialog. I'm curious whether publishing to a new empty trial site works.
If that doesn't work, please send me the .muse file at [email protected] along with a link to this thread. If the file is larger than 20Mb you can use a service like Adobe SendNow, SendThisFile, WeTransfer, Dropbox, etc.
Thanks.

Hi Zak,
I published the website to a new temporary site, and it worked beautifully. Now I just have to fuss with the horizontal bar, and then I'll be super happy. Thank you for your help!
Sincerely,
Sarah
Since this bit of advice, I have freely published to a new temporary site every time the website gets scrambled. I have had temporary websites titled:
argponline01.businesscatalyst.com
through
argponline15.businesscatalyst.com
along with a bunch more than I cannot recall.
and Muse files titled:
argp-uc.muse
argponline.muse
argponline_02.muse
through
argponline_05.muse
argponine_3A.muse
argponline_3B.muse
and currently, my file name is
argponline_4.muse (dropbox link)
I am using Muse on a Mac Powerbook, OSX 10.8.4.
I don't know how much of the above is relevant, but maybe it makes a difference to you.
The timestamp on the following thread says September 5th, 2013 4.50AM, but I really sent it the evening of September 4th, 2013. No difference anyhow:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5653912#5653912
What was going on in detail:
1
I made a few changes to my argponline_4.muse file on September 4th, 2013.
The published website at that point was argponlined.businesscatalyst.com (D).
The domain name was argponline.com .
(D) was published probably about two months previous, maybe longer ago.
When publishing (D) on September 4th, 2013, the website appeared scrambled.
I tried to publish only modified files, as well as publish the entire site, as well as close programs, and restart the laptop.
I decided to follow the advice given previously, and I published and launched argponlinef.businesscatalyst.com (F).
2
At this point I have two bookmarked websites for Adobe Business Catalyst Admin Consoles.
For (D), the Admin Console address was argponlined.businesscatalyst.com/AdminConsole/#!/Admin/Websites.aspx
For (F), the Admin Console address was argponlinef.businesscatalyst.com/AdminConsole/#!/Admin/Websites.aspx
I was able to sign into both.
When signed into the Admin Console for (F), I tried to Add a New Domain, but was told that I only had a plan for one hosted website through Adobe Business Catalyst, and that I would need to purchase a plan that offered more hosted websites.
I signed into the Admin Console for (D) and deleted the domain, but given the option to keep associated files just in case, I opted yes, to keep them.
When signed into the Admin Console for (F), I tried to Add a New Domain, but received the following error message:
Domain already exists. Please delete all records associated with this domain before re-adding it.
There was nothing visible though the Admin Console for (D) to delete the associated records, so I deleted site (D) in its entirety.
I continued to try to Add a New Domain for (F), but continued to receive the same error Domain already exists...
3
At this point (the morning of September 6th, 2013) we have the following set of parts:
The published and launched site is argponlinef.businesscatalyst.com (F).
For (F), the Admin Console address is argponlinef.businesscatalyst.com/AdminConsole/#!/Admin/Websites.aspx
The website is now completely down, and I have disrupted email service for the office.
I chatted with Lokesh, who determined this was a technical issue, and I was forwarded to Anshul.
Anshul's assessment is as follows:
Anshul: I see the error, Sarah it seems there are some Domain traces left with the system , I tried to clear then out and I am getting errors as well. In this case , we might need to escalate the case to higher level to have deeper investigation related to this issue.
Anshul: Sarah, the issue is the domain not the site. It seems like there are some traces related this domain in the backend. This issue is more of related to BC and not Muse. I will have this issue escalated and checked with the team and request them to run internal queries to clear the traces and then you should be able to add the domain.

Soon after I received the following message from Matt Baracz:
Matt Baracz (Adobe Business Catalyst Support)
Sep 06 10:50 (EEST)
Thank you for contacting us.
I have escalated this issue to our engineering team and have requested them to clear any references to the domain argponline.com from our database. Once cleared, you will then be able to re-add the domain successfully to your site.
As soon as I receive a response from engineering confirming that this has been actioned, I will let you know directly via this support ticket.
Regards,
Matt.
Around 3 or 4pm, I had not heard anything back, so I attempted to Add a New Domain through the Admin Console for (F). (Turns out Matt works in Australia, and was unable to alert me due to the time zone difference. Understandable!)
This was done successfully, so the website began to work again, but the email was still down.
5
I began a chat again, this time with Srividya. I was transferred to technical support and began conversation with Sanjit. The length of our conversation was probably around 3 hours, and I am so grateful for the time he put in. What a great guy.
He stated that he had gone through the case details and that Engineering had fixed the issue. We spent some time coordinating the Site Domain information through the Admin Console for (F). Ultimately, email is still not working (settings were probably updated around 5pm), but I understand sometimes it takes a while. Just wanted to note, the last time I updated the email settings it worked within a couple minutes. Varying lengths of time are expected, but I am still curious what effects those variations. Regardless.

The current situation is this:
My boss is a bit steamed that our website was down for a day and a half, and that our email is down for a relatively indeterminate amount of time. It's bad for business, and ultimately, I am responsible for these disruptions. I am incredibly concerned that the next time I update our website there will be a slew of problems, which have the potential to knock down service for the website and email again. I am desperate for a surefire way to simply and fluidly update our Adobe Muse website to Adobe Business Catalyst without making the same mistakes again.
I don't believe I did this the right way. I looked at FAQs, Community Forums, goDaddy Support and anything I could lay my eyes on to try to do things properly, but managed to make a few well-intentioned blunders. I continued to try undo the damage I've done in the past couple days, and with utter frustration, have not been able to fix them on my own. The people who have helped me thus far have done an amazing job, but ultimately, I am happier when I am not taking up their time, or panicking here.
When I first launched the website a few months ago, there was a step-by-step process that took me through every single action with screenshots included when appropriate. It was exponentially helpful. I was so lost without it this time around, and I was wondering if I could access it again in the future if needed.
The following is a blurb from my conversation with Sanjit tonight:
Sanjit: You have purchased Muse subscription , correct ?
Sanjit: or Creative cloud >
Sarah Rushing: Yes, we purchased Muse for 1-year, as well as Business Catalyst for 1-year
Sanjit: Perfect
Sanjit: With Muse you get 1 free site , so once you create a site and then publish to BC. In admin console you launch the site, that makes your free count used. Now if you create another site, then system asks you to upgrade the site to a paid site plan. ut when you delete the previous site then the free count becomes free and can be used for any other site
Sarah Rushing: Yes, that is what I did. Is this what I need to do each time? Because I am concerned that the email and website will be disrupted every time I need to make slight adjustments to the website?
Sanjit: No, you dont need to do that everytime. If the site is scrambled everytime you publish then please report to us. Thats not the ideal way for solution.
Sarah Rushing: Well Sanjit, I can tell you right now, that is how it has been functioning since we bought the program. I am not entirely certain, but I believe we bought Muse and BC in January.
Sarah Rushing: I can absolutely guarantee you that the site will inevitably scramble. Am I the only customer you have heard of to have this issue?
Sanjit: Yes, i have not seen any other reports for this issue
Sanjit: Well this needs a deep investigation
Zak, anything that you could offer for clarity of process, would be incredible. I don't know if you will have time to look at this before Monday, but I can tell you I will be available at a moment's notice to fix this issue and to learn anything about Muse and Business Catalyst that you have to offer. Thank you for your time, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Sincerely,
Sarah Rushing
I'm concerned that no one will really read this because it is so detailed and boring and comprehensive, but it is absolutely critical that I find a proper solution before the next update to the website. Thank you so so much to anyone who can possibly provide some insight into this issue.
Sincerely,
Sarah RushingIn case anyone is experiencing the same issue, I am trying this today.
Sachin: Okay Sarah, so is it everytime you try to republish the website, it gets scrambled?
Sarah: Yes, that is correct. And the solution thus far was to publish to an entirely new site, meaning delete the existing one on Business Catalyst and transfer the domain information.
Sarah: The last time I did that I experience a slew of issues that resulted in no website and email for 4 or more days. My boss was very angry.
Sachin: Sarah, can you publish your site as a new trial site once.
Sachin: And provide me the URL.
Sachin: Then republish on the same trial site and let me check the results.
Sarah: If I updated the published site within the period of a day, it will be fine. It is when I update the next day or later than that, then the website appears scrambled. So I can create a trial site for you, but it will behave normally for now.
Sachin: Sarah, while republishing the site, did you select "Only modified file" or "All files" while publishing?
Sarah: I tried everything.
Sarah: I made a few changes to my argponline_4.muse file on September 4th, 2013. The published website at that point was argponlined.businesscatalyst.com (D). The domain name was argponline.com . (D) was published probably about two months previous, maybe longer ago. When publishing (D) on September 4th, 2013, the website appeared scrambled. I tried to publish only modified files, as well as publish the entire site, as well as close programs, and restart the laptop. I decided to follow the advice given previously, and I published and launched argponlinef.businesscatalyst.com (F).
Sachin: Okay. there is one more thing I would like you to try.
Sachin: Publish a site as a trial site.
Sachin: Then wait till tomorrow.
Sachin: After that login to the admin panel of the site.
Sarah: Okay
Sachin: There go to Site Manager>File manager
Sachin: There will be a file there named Muse_manifest.xml
Sachin: Delete that file and then republish the site from Muse.
Sarah: So in the Adobe Admin Console, underneath Site Manager, I see Web Forms and System E-mails. No file manager?
Sachin: Please hover the muse on your name at top right corner and click on My details.
Sarah: Okay, yes.
Sachin: Now scroll down and check the option that says Enable online content editing (incompatible with Muse)
Sachin: And then click on save.
Sarah: What does this do, and why does it say it is incompatible with Muse?
Sachin: It will help you see other options in BC.
Sarah: Okay, thank you.
Sarah: I see the File Manager now
Sachin: Okay.
Sachin: Now select the file named Muse_manifest.xml
Sachin: And use the delete button on the right side.
Sachin: but do it tomorrow
Sachin: With a trial site
Sachin: Not with the live site.
Sarah: Okay, could you please explain to me what deleting that particular file is supposed to do? I am just very interested in how this works.
Sachin: This file contains the information about your last upload.
Sachin: Deleting it will make sure that "ALL" the files are uploaded again from Muse.
Sarah: Okay, so:
Sarah: I will publish a trial site.
Sarah: Wait until tomorrow.
Sarah: Publish again. If I have an issue, I can log-in to the admin console for this particular trial site and go to Site Manager --> File Manager, and delete muse_manifest.xml.
Sachin: I will create a case for you and you can respond to the case.
Sachin: Correct.
Sarah: After that, I will try publishing again and see if it resolves the issue.
Sarah: That would be great, thank you Sachin.
Sachin: Thank you for contacting us. Have a Good Day! -
I have windows 8.1 and cannot access itunes store even creating a new apple id. With other users on the same computer I can access itunes store. How can I solve this?
i had the same problem before using a fresh install of Windows 8.1. I have resolved this issue by running the program compatibility wizard. This I did by right-clicking on the iTunes icon in the desktop, selecting Troubleshoot compatibility, waited for it to detect compatibility issues and when presented with the following options: 1.) Try recommended settings; 2.) Troubleshoot program, I chose the latter. When asked what problems I noticed, I checked the following: "The program worked in earlier versions of Windows but won't install or run" and "The program requires additional permission"
After that, it tired to resolve the issue, and provided the necessary settings to run iTunes. Now it's running flawlessly. I have Avast anti-virus installed though.
HTH! -
I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but since the old one was deactivated I cant update them and I do not want to delete/lose their data, re download, and start all over again. Is there anyway to go around this issue?
thanksAsk Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

My hard drive recently had to be replaced, and I just got my computer back with successful data recovery. When I opened Photo Booth, I was prompted with the following: 'Photo Booth could not locate your photo library. Please choose an existing library, or create a new one in order to continue using Photo Booth. This photo library will be used the next time you open Photo Booth.'
I navigated to my regular photo booth library in my hard drive, but it wouldn't allow me to select it. I then tried opening and updating iPhoto including upgrading my library. I imported my old Photo Booth Library as well. Everything works! I should be allowed to use the same folder as before, instead of creating a "Photo Booth Library #2" or something. Any Ideas?Repair permissions ...
Launch Disk Utility located in your Applications / Utilities folder
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Repair Disk Permissions
This can take a few minutes so don't be alarmed.
Restart your Mac when it's finished then try PhotoBooth. -
Upgraded to 11.3.1 now can't open library. Won't read. I have an older iMac (2008). Message I get is: cannot be read because was created by newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?' ... so I do and it fixes nothing. Same message again. OS is 10.6.8.
Thanks again. The option thing got me further than I've gotten thus far but when I went to choose a library I got that same message.
I do have options. I have 2 iMacs. I can still access my music through 'sharing' and download it onto my newer iMac. Trouble is it doesn't have a CD port and I like to burn. From what I've read about their new Mac portable CD/DVD drive, it's shaky at best. Incidentally, do you know of any drives that work well with Macs and cost less than $89.00?
I've figured out I can download a previous library from my old Mac then upload it from the new one which should put me back in business, but what do I do with the corrupt one that's there now, just trash it? Also, when I do the option key my other choice is Create A New Library. Should I do that and put the good previous library into it?
Thanks a million, I really appreciate your time. I'm an old fogey and computers often mystify me, especially when they lock me out of things for no apparent reason. -

Test Manager cannot install Test Agent on selected VMs (trying to create a new environment)
I am trying to create a new SCVMM environment.
I picked a bunch of VMs that are up and running.
I know the administrator credentials for these VMs (It's the same for all of the chosen VMs)
I have a test controller on my dev machine which is also up and running.
But I'm getting an error in the Verification step saying -
"Microsoft test manager cannot install test agent on these machines. Possible causes:
- Machines are not running or they are not available on the network.
- The File and Printer sharing exception is not enabled on the machines."
I have done the following -
1) Disabled firewalls on all the machines
2) Network Adapters on all the machines are connected (ON) and their drivers are up to date
3) Enabled file and printer sharing exceptions on all machines
Still getting the same error.
Any ideas?
Thanks a bunch!That's probably a very well written description of what
you've done... it seemed refreshingly thorough. I'm on the verge of
a cold or something, with a slightly fuzzy brain, so what I thought
I read seemed to describe you've done just about everything
correctly, except for one thing (maybe another)... If you gave the
button the instance name stepin...
stepin.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,
mouseDownHandler);
and you could/should change that from MOUSE_DOWN to CLICK
If that's not the problem, then it is possible the issue
arises due to the tween. Be sure to have the button instance name
assigned at both ends of the tween (I'm assuming by classic tween
you mean a timeline tween). For some reason objects don't like to
give up some of their past life's properties when moving from one
frame to the next, so if the beginning of the tween doesn't have an
instance name, then it's likely that it stays that way when it
reaches the other end despite you assigning the name there.
PS - for the stepin button, if you haven't already done so,
you should open it for editing and draw a rectangle in the 4th
(Hit) frame that covers the entire area of the text. It will not be
visible, but will allow clicking between letters in the button...
making it easier to click on -

I am preaching, but +"wiping/erasing a HD"+ should be reserved for true disasters. That is a Windows process.

BUG: Access Connect Abort, when I create a new network profile.
Where can I report bugs?
My system is windows xp sp2 on X60.
I have been using AC-4.42(Access Connection) for a long time. And before, there is no problem when I added new network profile into it.
But yesterday, I wanted to add a new profile into it. I opened the "create profile" window and input the name of the new profile (I have two network adapters, wired and wireless. So by default, the both are selected. And I left the default selection unchanged.), then "Next". The 2nd window is about wireless config, I configured everything, then go on "Next", at this moment, an error occured and AC aborted with four error windows. The titles of those windows are "ACMainGUI.exe error" and "ACMainGUIWnd: ACMainGUI.exe".
Then I did it again, I opened the "create profile" window, and this time, in this (1st) window, I changed the selection of network adapter, besides inputing the name of the new profile. I only selected the wired adapter, and then "Next". Sadly, this time the 2nd(next) window did not appear(pop up) at all. Instead, those four error windows poped up one by one. AC aborted again.
I repeated the above operations many times, and everytime, AC aborted.
So I went to the online "support and download" to look for some updates about AC. And I found AC-4.52 with luck. After downloading and installing, unfortunately the problem still exists. AC-4.52 still aborts when I create a new network profile.
So now, what to do. I have no ways. I am expecting the developers could note this problem and fix it and give me a newer update as soon as possible.
Sigh...I have exactly the same issue. Next to the actions mentioned by ixbm I have also fully uninstalled and reinstalled the AC-4.52, but this didn't help.
Any idea on how to solve, installing older version?

Is it possible to loop AI Voltage readings without creating a new task (NI-DAQmx)?
I would like to repeatedly make n Analog readings in a program, however, I am unable to accomplish this without creating a new task each time... perhaps I'm doing something wrong.
Here is my pseudo-code:
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCreateTask("", &taskHandleAI));
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan(taskHandleAI, ...));
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCfgSampClkTiming(taskHandleAI,...));
Loop start
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxStartTask(*taskHandleAI));
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxWaitUntilTaskDone(*taskHandleAI, 0.001));
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxReadAnalogF64(*taskHandleAI, ...));
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxStopTask(*taskHandleAI));
do_something();
Loop end
The first read seems to work fine, however, all subsequet reads gets the following error message:
DAQmx Error: Measurements: Task specified is invalid or does not exist.
Status Code: -200088
Does anyone have a clue what is happening?Sorry... is it possible to move a post, or should I simply start another one?
Also. I don't fully understand what you mean by moving start & stop outside of the loop... the 'do_something()' part parses the reading results that was just read...
are you saying I should not run StartTask/StopTask for each iteration of the loop?
Maybe you are looking for
