Ichat opens and closes repeatedly then shows an error
When I go to log into Ichat, it opens and closes over and over again until finally an error comes up saying that I tried to log in too many times, and to try and log in again later.
However, after a few minutes, it still does not let me log in.. Please help !
I looked further into the discussions and found this thread. I tried it and it worked. It might work for you.

Good luck!

IChat opens and closes repeatedly
I've seen this come up in discussions a few times but without answers.
iChat opens and closes repeated then tells me I've logged in too many times and to try again later. BUT... this only happens on one particular Airport connection. Everywhere else is fine. Is it the wireless router that is the problem... some compatibility issue? Is that the issue for the other people getting this problem too, perhaps?
Any ideas how to fix this?Hi,
From that (9C7010) I can see that you have done the Time Machine and Airport Update.
I presume this updates the specs for the Airport Card as well as adjusting the Airport Devices themselves to Apple's version of the latest 802.11n draft spec.
I would have then said that it was effecting the connection presumably as this is now out of step with the firmware on the Netgear, but you say other Internet features work.
First I would delete the com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist from Users/(your account)/Library/Preferences
Then I would see if this Netgear is set to Respond to Internet Pings and has the Block Port Scan and DOS (or SPI) turned Off.
As test I would see if the N spec can be turned off in the Netgear and use the G only.

Pages 09 document; open and close many times; right way with Lion?
I have a 106 page document that increases in size on a daily basis. With OS 10.7, iWork/Pages 09 on my new, iMac, it's common that I lose as much as two sentences after the document is closed and re opened. After 10.7 was installed the document was closed using Command - S, and subsequently closed by pulling down File and selecting Close. - Not the way to close; the red button was so easy with 10.6. IS UNINSTALLING LION THE BEST SOLUTION?
And yes, I've read the sorry jibberish in the Pages 09 manual - which doesn't say how to open and close repeatedly a document with Pages 09.
So, with the Lion - the worst ever of spending $30, is it necessary to do a Command S every time you close? And what exactly is necessary each time you close a document using Pages 09 and Lion? - And about Auto Save; well, what about Auto Save? - The Lion means well for something other than common, understandable, text production. -- How about a separate application of Appleworks for text producers like me?The red button is always available under 10.7 (or 10.7.1)
Under 10.7, press cmd + S once when you create the document.
After that, the system automatically save your changes.
No need for cmd + S.
To close the document we may use :
the red button
cmd + W
File > Close
as it was with older systems.

Since installing LTR 5.4, which I've now upgraded to 5.6, I've encountered repeated slowness and malfunctions in operations, especially when using the Compare View function and the Tab key to open and close the right and left side panels. Such problems never arose during two years of using LTR-4 and nothing else has changed on my computer. I have a pretty simple system with only a few plug-ins, which are usually not in operation. I have 12GB of RAM in my Windows 7 PC. I could illustrate these problems with screen shots if you would tell me how to submit screen shots. Otherwise I will try to describe the problems in words.
The problem is clearly cumulative, growing worse as usage time passes. Compare View feature gradually slows down and eventually seems to choke as my work session proceeds. If I Exit LTR and re-enter and start all over, things will work normally for maybe 30 minutes, but then the Compare View feature begins to become very slow to respond. In a recent example with my screen full of thumbnails in Library mode I highlighted two images to compare. LTR started to open the Compare View screen by first having the top row of thumbnails disappear to be replaced by the "SELECT" and "CANDIDATE" words in their spaces (but no images), but Compare View never succeeded in gaining control of the screen. After some seconds the top row of thumbnails reasserted its position and the Compare View windows disappeared. But LTR kept trying to bring them back. Again the top row of thumbnails would go away, Select and candidate would reappear, try again, and give up. This went on for at least 2-3 minutes before I tried to choose File and Exit, but even that did not initially want to respond. It doesn't like to accept other commands when it's trying to open Compare View. Finally it allowed me to exit.
To experiment I created a new catalog of 1100 images. After 30-40 minutes, the Compare View function began to operate very slowly. With left and right side panels visible and two thumbnails highlighted, hitting Compare View can take half a minute before the two mid-size images open in their respective SELECT and CANDIDATE windows. When the side panels are open and two images are in the Select/Candidate spaces, hitting the Tab button to close the side panels produces a very delayed response--25-30 seconds to close them, a few more seconds to enlarge the two images to full size. To reverse the process (i.e., to recall the two side panels), hitting Tab would make the two sides of the screen go black for up to a minute, with no words visible. Eventually the info fields in the panels would open up.
I also created a new user account and imported a folder of 160 images. After half an hour Compare View began mis-placing data. (I have a screen shot to show this.) CANDIDATE appears on the left side of SELECT, whereas it should be on the right. The accompanying camera exposure data appears almost entirely to the left of the mid-screen dividing line. Although the Candidate and Select headings were transposed, the image exposure data was not, but the data for the image on the right was almost entirely to the left of the line dividing the screen in two.
Gurus in The Lightroom Forum have examined Task Manager data showing Processes running and Performance indicators and they see nothing wrong. I could also send screen shots of this data.
At this point, the only way I can process my images is to work 30-40 minutes and then shut down everything, exit, and re-start LTR. This is not normal. I hope you can find the cause, and then the solution. If you would like to see my screen shots, tell me how to submit them.

[bdb bug]repeatly open and close db may cause memory leak
my test code is very simple :
char *filename = "xxx.db";
char *dbname = "xxx";
for( ; ;)
DB *dbp;
DB_TXN *txnp;
db_create(&dbp,dbenvp, 0);
dbenvp->txn_begin(dbenvp, NULL, &txnp, 0);
ret = dbp->open(dbp, txnp, filename, dbname, DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0);
if(ret != 0)
printf("failed to open db:%s\n",db_strerror(ret));
return 0;
txnp->commit(txnp, 0);
dbp->close(dbp, DB_NOSYNC);
I try to run my test program for a long time opening and closing db repeatly, then use the PS command and find the RSS is increasing slowly:
ps -va
PID TTY STAT TIME MAJFL TRS DRS RSS %MEM COMMAND
1986 pts/0 S 0:00 466 588 4999 980 0.3 -bash
2615 pts/0 R 0:01 588 2 5141 2500 0.9 ./test
after a few minutes：
ps -va
PID TTY STAT TIME MAJFL TRS DRS RSS %MEM COMMAND
1986 pts/0 S 0:00 473 588 4999 976 0.3 -bash
2615 pts/0 R 30:02 689 2 156561 117892 46.2 ./test
I had read bdb's source code before, so i tried to debug it for about a week and found something like a bug:
If open a db with both filename and dbname, bdb will open a db handle for master db and a db handle for subdb,
both of the two handle will get an fileid by a internal api called __dbreg_get_id, however, just the subdb's id will be
return to bdb's log region by calling __dbreg_pop_id. It leads to a id leak if I tried to open and close the db
repeatly, as a result， __dbreg_add_dbentry will call realloc repeatly to enlarge the dbentry area, this seens to be
the reason for RSS increasing.
Is it not a BUG?
sorry for my pool english :)
Edited by: user9222236 on 2010-2-25 下午10:38I have tested my program using Oracle Berkeley DB release 4.8.26 and 4.7.25 in redhat 9.0 (Kernel 2.4.20-8smp on an i686) and AIX Version 5.
The problem is easy to be reproduced by calling the open method of db handle with both filename and dbname being specified and calling the close method.
My program is very simple:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include "db.h"
int main(int argc, char * argv[])
int ret, count;
DB_ENV *dbenvp;
char * filename = "test.dbf";
char * dbname = "test";
db_env_create(&dbenvp, 0);
dbenvp->open(dbenvp, "/home/bdb/code/test/env",DB_CREATE|DB_INIT_LOCK|DB_INIT_LOG|DB_INIT_TXN|DB_INIT_MPOOL, 0);
for(count = 0 ; count < 10000000 ; count++)
DB *dbp;
DB_TXN *txnp;
db_create(&dbp,dbenvp, 0);
dbenvp->txn_begin(dbenvp, NULL, &txnp, 0);
ret = dbp->open(dbp, txnp, filename, dbname, DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0);
if(ret != 0)
printf("failed to open db:%s\n",db_strerror(ret));
return 0;
txnp->commit(txnp, 0);
dbp->close(dbp, DB_NOSYNC);
dbenvp->close(dbenvp, 0);
return 0;
DB_CONFIG is like below:
set_cachesize 0 20000 0
set_flags db_auto_commit
set_flags db_txn_nosync
set_flags db_log_inmemory
set_lk_detect db_lock_minlocks

I recently migrated my MacBook from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8, using the Snow Leopard CD I purchased from Apple. Since then I have noticed a strange ozone smell coming from the MacBook in the area where the hinges are to open and close the unit. I was told by Apple that it probably is not serious and is coming from the fans in the MacBook. It is true that the smell/odor is more intense when the fans are working. Apple said I should take the MacBook to an Apple Store to have the hardware checked out. Everything seems to be working correctly. I am backing up automatically wirelessly to a Time Capsule, which I had not done until recently, although I had purchased the Time Capsule in 2009. I have not noticed this odor before. Does anyone suspect something more serious that may be going on?
You may be smelling it because with the new OS the processor is having to work harder causing it to get hotter then it would with the other OS. I can't say there is nothing wrong, but what could be happening is just that, it's getting hotter so the fan is spinning faster and moving more air so you are getting more of the smell then you would before. I would still continue to back it up, and take it to the Apple Store at a Genius Bar and have them look at it to make sure. Was the computer ever in a smoky environment??

Finder repeatedly opens and closes in my PowerBook G4
I have been wrestling with this problem for some time. Finder repeatedly opens and closes in my PowerBook G4. When I log in to my Administrator Account, the Finder will repeatedly open and close with a rainbow spinner till the whole system freezes. I have reinstalled the OS and the problem returned. Now, I need to get my files on that account backed up and start over again. The trouble is that I can't access the files because the Finder isn't accessible. I've created a 2nd account, and am in the process of trying to copy the files I need to the new profile, but so far those files are barred. My main concern is why is this happening, and will it happen again if I reinstall? What's the best way to reinstall and start over?
If the second account is an admin one and since the issue is specific to your original user account, you can proceed in two ways. One is to log into your new account, make a list of the preference files (plists) located in /username/Library/Preferences/, including any in the ByHost subfolder, log back into the original account, move everything on that other account's list from the original account's Preferences folder into a newly created folder on the Desktop, log out and back in, and see if the problem goes away. If so, you can copy the ones in the Desktop folder (one at time) back into /Preferences/, restart, and see if the problem returns. If so, you've identified the corrupt/conflicting one. Continue with all of them until isolating the bad ones. That'll save you the trouble of resetting preferences.
The second way is much more detailed and I'll not burden you with the steps unless the above doesn't fix the issue. -
Open and Close Front Panel of SubVI
Hi all,
Running LabVIEW 2011 on Windows 7 x64. I am trying to get a subVI front panel to open from my main FP with the press of a button and then close with a button press in the subVI. Here is the piece from my main FP that calls the VI and opens the FP
Plots is defined in another loop and all of the loops are in a flat sequence. I did it this way because I want it to start with the first press and not stop my main loop from running. I have moved the item in the left loop around a lot so I'm not sure if I can run that in the same loop as the event or not. Either way opening the VI seems to work fine.
The problem shows up when trying to close the subVI for the SECOND time. The code is here:
As I said, the first time I open and close the VI everything works as I expect it should. I am then able to open it again but now the "blank button" doesn't function and I can't close the window or even open the block diagram to probe anything. I have been trying to figure this out for awhile, any insite would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

hello
i have a iphone 4. My apps open and close immediatly. I can't use them.
What can I do ?
thanks for your help
ChrisHey Chris,
It just happened to me. If all the brought apps are closing immediately (and excluding the built in ones) then try either:
1. Restart your phone.
2. Hold the home button for the task bar and hold the app for a few seconds until they jiggle and a red cicle with a line in it shows up. Touch each one (this is just deleting them and "refreshing them", you aren't really deleting the app).
3. Go to the App store and buy a free app, any, and install it. Try opening one of your apps now. This worked for me. If it works, you can go ahead and delete the free app.
4. If all fails...restore your phone.
Good luck! -
IE open and close immediately. Can't fix using many methods.
A user reports that can't use IE 8 suddenly.
His PC is Windows 7 Pro sp1 and using Internet Explorer 8.
Don't know what he did before and he ever tried restore to previous point but no help.
I've tried the following.
1. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/967896
Reset Internet Explorer to its default settings or
Uninstall and then reinstall Internet Explorer through Turning on/ off windows features.
2. Use other user like Administrator to open IE. But result is same
3. Upgrade to IE 11. Still open and close immediately only.
Repeat step 1 but still not solve.
4. Downloaded IE 11 and installed manually but it stated that IE 11 was installed. (Had turned off IE to uninstall it through Turning on/ off windows features)
Asked him to use Chrome but some websites need IE. So he must use IE too.
Please advise that how to fix it.
Hope not need to re-install OS.
Many thnaks.1. Are there any traces in Event logs?
2. Try to delete history in IE
3. Try to disable add-ons.
4. If nothing helps, analyze your system with Process Monitor and Process Explorer. Check which programs starts with Autoruns (all programs are from Sysinternals)

Find open and close smart quotes
Dear scripter,
Here I am trying find whether all the open double smart quotes(") are closed with close double smart quotes("). Here is my small work to find how many open and close quotes.
myopenqu=app.activeDocument.search("^{", false, false, "^{");
myclosequ=app.activeDocument.search("^}", false, false, "^}");
myopenqulength = myopenqu.length;
myclosequlength = myclosequ.length;
if(myopenqulength!=myclosequlength)
alert("Quotes not matched\n"+ myopenqulength +" Open quotes found\n" + myclosequlength +" Close quotes found")
It works well, the script just alert if I have 25 open quotes and 23 close quotes
Quotes not matched
25 Open quotes found
23 close quotes found
Now I want to find the quote set where the 24,25th set close quotes are missing?
Is there any way to find the misisng quotes
Thanks in advance
regards
a r u l
vpublish.netYou'd have to look for unmatched quotes, in this case two cases of two open quotes without an intervening closed quote. This is difficult to script in CS2 because it doesn't have GREP natively and because of footnote problems. In CS3/4 it should be possible. But even then it will work only if you don't have quotes within quotes.

My apps dance open and close on their own in my IPad 2 what can be the prob? I have already restored
I got the charger flex or pin changed and now the apps dance on the screen, photos open and zoom in, then out, the other apps open and close. I have already restored the device with Itunes and prob is still there. What can be the problem? Any suggestion will be welcome. Thank you
THANKS for your prompt reply Bluetooth is off in my laptop and IPhone.. and in fact the reset is the only thing that can make it back to normal. But for a lil while. I wonder if it is the touch, or the home botton... both things are very expensive to replace, so I wouldn't like to spend $$ and continue having the prob.....

Apps in iPad 1 open and close quickly
Hello,
My mother has an iPad 1 (she has her own itunes account) but had never synced and updated her iPad with a computer (pc or mac).
Today I had to use it and connected to my iTunes on the pc but only to update her iOS on the iPad wich was 3.x. After the whole update process (wich went normal and smooth) almost every app that I woud open, closed imeadtly. I say ALMOST because, a few from the default apps (like Mail, Photos, Safari, System, etc) opens normaly. Though iBooks doesnt and all 3rd party apps also doesnt open normaly.
I've tryed to reboot it one more time thinking it was some kind of strange bug or something but didn't work. The apps continue to open and close almost instantly.
I'd like to know if anyone had a similar problem and how they solved it or if my only resource is to roll back to the iPad backup made in my pc.
Thanks in advance.
Luis FelipeTry double-tapping the home button, then holding the app icon until the minus sign appears. Touch the minus sign to kill all the apps. Then restart the iPad with the home/power buttons (hold for ten seconds) until the apple appears.

Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
hi sap gurus
can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
thank you
venkatareddyHi Venkatareddy,
You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
Kindly let me know if this useful for you -
Open and close posting periods urgent! (ob52)
Hi SAP gurus,
i am trying to post open and close balances (it is spesific to my country) however i do not want users to post to 2007 except me.
how can i achieve this with not blocking all users.
in other words, i need authorization to post last year although it is closed for all users.
note: can you pls explain the difference btw "from period 1" and "from period 2" in OB52. and also there is an authorization group at the last column what does this mean?
thx in advance.Hi,
If you stand on the field "authorization group" and use "F1" you can find the help on that field, you will find that it is very helpful.
You should define period 2 for all users and period 1 to the restricted users,
Next, you should assigned a free symbol in the field "authorization group" (which refer to period 1), then ask the person that responsible in your organization of the authorization to assign the authorization object F_BKPF_BUP with that specific symbol to the restricted users,
That should do the job.
If that helps, feel free to assign points
Kind regards,
Yoav
