Icon info doesn't update, and display issues

On my desktop I have my icons set to show information such as drivespace under them. When I empty the trashcan the information doesn't update on the icon, but it does in the finder (finder shows 12gigs, but icon still says 3.4gigs). Is this a common bug or is does it not do this on anyone elses computer?
Also I'm running an external display and sometimes I notice that my primary display looks really bright, when I try to change the color profile it says something about not being able to find the primary display or something like that. This only happens once in a while when I have my external display plugged in. I was running the ATI drivers, but I think the last apple update replaced them with the Apple drivers.
Any help or comments are appreciated

you specified the delay for timer"1000" but not the repeat amount.
your if statement will only run once unless you put it inside the onTimer function.
the new Date() statement sould be outside the onTimer function

  • My performance is very slow when I run graphs. How do I increase the speed at which I can do other things while the data is being updated and displayed on the graphs?

    I am doing an an aquisition and displaying the data on graphs. When I run the program it is slow. I think because I have the number of scans to read associated with my scan rate. It takes the number of seconds I want to display on the chart times the scan rate and feeds that into the number of samples to read at a time from the AI read. The problem is that it stalls until the data points are aquired and displayed so I cannot click or change values on the front panel until the updates occur on the graph. What can I do to be able to help this?

    The last update for 10.4 took it to 10.4.11. To upgrade to 10.5 or 10.6 you have to buy the install disk for that OS. You can upgrade from 10.4 to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.4 will run under 10.6.

  • Menus on newest update have display issues. Click and they drop with no interior and/or constantly flash on and off. Main meun and shortcut menus both do this.

    The other day I was told Firefox had updated (I have auto update enabled). Since then I have observed that the menus (file, edit etc.) when clicked quickly drop and display and then disappear leaving only an outline of the menu. There is lots of flashing. This happens on the shortcut menus too.

    Installed FlashPlayer 9. All the pictures are almost lossless PNG.
    No hardware acceleration, bad quality YT. Check the edge of the stars, or the numbers bottom left and right.
    Hardware acceleration ON, smooth buttons, but with FP9, there is no title on pause top left, this is just 1 reason why I want to use FP10 or FP11, without GPU acceleration, but nice quality.
    As you can see, with FlashPlayer 9, only CPU is working, and the VGA driver is not crashing with 4! 720p youtube videos (all 4 playing in the same time). Still, with hardware acceleration, the quality is good, and smooth. All I want is an option to turn off gpu acceleration for Flash 11 just like they way Flash 9 was.

  • MacBook Pro Startup and Display Issues

    I've been having some random problems with my MacBook Pro (2.16 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 100 GB 7200 rpm hard drive, ATI Radeon X1600 graphics). Specifically:
    1. Lines across the screen and purple boxes sometimes appear.
    2. The graphic effects (e.g. zooming a window) sometimes get "frozen" on the screen. In other words a remnant from the animation will stay until the window is refreshed.
    3. The Mac sometimes freezes during the startup process. Sometimes the login screen will be unresponsive and other times the Mac will almost bootup but fail when loading startup items.
    4. Less frequently the Mac will freeze randomly. I previously had iStat Menus installed and each time the MacBook Pro froze up it indicated both read and write disk activities.
    Yesterday I decided to wipe the machine clean and start from scratch in case there were a software issue or corruption on the hard drive that was causing my woes. I completely erased my hard drive and even zeroed the entire disk to make sure everything was completely wiped out. I also disconnected all peripherals to simplify things as much as possible.
    The first time I tried the reinstall everything completed successfully but the "Welcome" movie froze part way through. I then had problems running the install again. I was able to boot off the Leopard DVD, but the machine froze a couple of clicks into the install procedure. After numerous tries I was able to erase the hard drive once again and install Leopard. This completed successfully and I installed all updates.
    The problems started to show up again almost immediately, however. I installed iLife and iWork and all the updates and had the computer freeze up on me again during a reboot. I also noticed that the display issues started to show up again even before installing any third-party software.
    I've tried running disk tests with Drive Genius 2.1, but no errors have been reported. I've also used the freeware Rember program to run memory tests but have yet to see any errors. Sometimes my Mac powers up without any problems and once it's powered up it often stays running for days. The display issues appear quite frequently. I've using iStat Menus to keep an eye on the temperature sensors and everything appears to be normal - so it doesn't appear to be temperature related.
    Fortunately the computer's still covered under the extended AppleCare warranty, but I would like to have some idea what's going on before I take it in just in case they're not able to reproduce the issues.
    Any suggestions and insights would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance for reading my rather long-winded message.
    Cheers,
    Tim

    I took my MacBook Pro in for repair and it turned out to be an issue with the logic board. I had the logic board replaced (fortunately it was covered under my extended AppleCare warranty) and these problems are a thing of the past.

  • Latest update and display changes

    after the latest update my display changed to higher resolution and when I go inot the preference pane I only show two available resolutions.
    What can I do to fix this
    Thank you for any help

    I tried adjusting the value of layout.css.devPixelsPerPx but that did not help. The only thing that temporarily fixed my display issues was to close Firefox- at that point the screen blacked out and reappeared in full view. As soon as I open Firefox the screen blacks out and reappears showing only a portion of my desktop and all the icons not visible are no longer clickable because the mouse cursor can't reach them.

  • Photoshop PSD files will not open in AE or PREM?? This was fine in CS6 and CC - just did the CC2024 update and now issues-any help much appreciated

    Titles says it all really,
    Recently upgraded to the 2014 CC update and now i can't send PSD files…or any files for that matter into Premier or AE. If i save the file in Photoshop CC2014 then i can see it in finder etc, but i try to import and i get the notice 'importer reported a generic error'
    please help i have work to finish

    I am having the same issue. I can create a single layer file in Photoshop and it imports fine. If I create a file with 2 layers it crashes Premiere cc. Premiere will not display the box with options to import single layer, sequence etc. Any ideas?

  • Helix bios update and firmware issue

    Hello. I recently had an issue - my keyboard dock stopped working entirely and I had the fan issue. I installed the firmware update and also updated my bios - with success, the keyboard dock now works.,
    The first time I restarted my Helix 3xxx series.... it didn't work.
    The issue I received is on windows 8.1. I loaded, logged in... and received a black screen. The cursor was there, and I could do CTRL-ALT-DEL, but nothing else loaded.
    I looked it up, and previous lenovo laptops had this issue when upgraded to 8.1 - black screen, cursor, nothing else.
    The issue with those laptops was with an AMD display driver - but I do not possess said driver. After going through their solutions many times, nothing works. I can run it in safe mode with networking, but trying to run standard is without fail. I updated my display drivers with no luck.
    I don't know what caused it besides the apparent bios/firemare update. I do not know what else to try.
    I can't even do a system restore because I dont have a USB drive to do it with.

    F.23 is F.23 despite the discrepancy in the release dates. You have the latest BIOS.

  • IPOD doesn't update and apparently can't be restored

    I'm having lots of problems with my iPOD and iTunes. First, when I connected my ipod to update it got completely erased and I couldn't eject it. I had to follow the window's protocol to eject usb devices and it froze my laptop for hours. And ever since every time I connect my ipod I have trouble. The ipod never gets updated, the ipod never mirrors its itunes library. It actually sort of refuses to update calling unkonwn error (-36), but I also couldn't find an article about this specific article. And the "do not disconnect" message never disappears. I've re-installed iTunes lots of times but it never worked. Also I can't restore the ipod because when FINALLY iTunes recognizes the ipod it doesn't show the summary on the source list, so I can't do that either. Also the ipod updater does't work.
    HELP!

    Hi babacita,
    Your iPod is most likely not defective.
    Is your computer now or has it ever been connected to a home or office network of some kind? If so (and even if not it is worth a shot) the steps in the following knowledgebase article should resolve the issue:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499
    Basically it just has you using Windows Disk Management to change the drive letter of a mapped network drive (or if that is not an option, the ipod).
    Try it and let us know if it helps.
    Good luck

  • 8.0.2 update and Template issues

    Here's an FYI & observation after the update to 8.0.2. My machine has both Logic Studio and Logic Express installed. After the software update yesterday, Logic Express startups up by presenting the templates dialog box offering all the templates as would be presented in Logic. Choosing any template not in the Logic Express set understandably creates error after error, but otherwise it seems to be a trivial issue.

    Hey there tjbliven,
    It sounds like you are not able to use the dictation feature of iOS 8, becuase the microphone icon is missing. It seems to me like Siri may be turned off, which would cause the icon to not be there:
    Siri settings - iPhone
    To set options for Siri, go to Settings > General > Siri. Options include:
    Turning Siri on or off
    That should get the dictation feature back for you.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • 10.6.4 Update and Bluetooth issue

    I just updated to 10.6.4 and my MBPro now doesn't allow bluetooth keyboard or mouse to wake when sleeping. The option to "allow bluetooth device to wake computer" is greyed out. This wasn't an issue prior to the update.
    Any ideas?

    I am thinking there was a problem with BT and sleeping of MBPs. I have a bluetooth mouse and disabled that feature in 10.6.3
    I don't need my mouse to wake my MBP anyway. Sorry I am not much help. Just stating my view.
    I just checked my computer...that area is not grayed out on mine and I am at 10.6.4.
