IDVD Hangs every time since most recent updates

my computer installed the updates as usual when i get a software update. i ran disk utility and it showed a lot of ACL found but not expected and Warning: SUID file has been configured but will not be repaired. The Apple guy at the genius bar said this was normal with Leopard. i don't know what the last two updates were, i can't remember how to recheck what i did, but now, iDVD will not open. it'll bounce on the dock, then hang up. i just burned 2 dvds last night form iMovie. someone help please...

Yeah - well to be precise, it renders the menus (stage 1) and then moves on to rendering the slideshow (61 photos) and then hangs at that point. This is a complete system hang - I can't kill any applications, nothing fixes this apart from a hard reset.
I ended up going back to a 6.0 Theme, and it worked first time - reading another thread here others are suggesting it's bugs in 7.0 Themes, and iDVD 08.... I'd believe it given the fix of 6.0 Theme.

    Hi Gizzymoeaiden,
    If you are having an issue with your iPhone asking for your iCloud password each time you try to send mail, it may be necessary to reset the password of the Apple ID you are using for iCloud. See this article for how -

  • Network startup fails every time since 6/9 update [SOLVED]

    I use the netctl method to start the network on my various machines (with static IP addresses) and since doing full system upgrades on 6/9, which included an update to systemd, the network fails to start on bootup, every time. I have to start the network manually after logging in.
    I just read a post about a similar systemd-related problem (involving a new service) from which I quote: "yet another bunch of races to accompany the ones that have pestered the arch-linux bootup since that festering pile of race-ridden cs-student pipedream called systemd has been adopted into it."
    Race conditions in network startup have been troublesome for me since systemd appeared. It's been quite some time now and the problems keep appearing. Much as I like Arch, I may have to abandon it, because this kind of basic unreliability is not acceptable.

    Well, I did some more work on this, and I have a bit of egg on my face, with an excuse. You can decide for yourself whether you think it's a good one.
    I run multiple machines that I use for different circumstances, e.g., travel. I rsync my home directory when moving from one machine to another. They are all set up identically, with Arch. To avoid confusion about which machine has the latest changes in my home directory, the scripts I use for rsync-ing and my .bash_profile send emails to my gmail address, so I have an audit trail of what I have done. In the past, I *have* experienced systemd troubles (and know that because the network didn't come up reliably and there was discussion by others on this forum of problems similar to mine, with patches for the systemd scripts) and the first symptom I saw was the inability of my .bash_profile to send my 'I just logged in on system X' email. Since the system update yesterday, I have been seeing this symptom. My mistake was assuming, instead of verifying, that the network had not come up, and just starting the network manually with netctl (there was no error message from netctl that I was starting an already-started network profile). My confusion was abetted by the fact that there was a systemd update yesterday, according to pacman. But, in fact, when I realized I was making an unwarranted assumption and actually checked, I found that the network had come up and I now believe this is not a systemd issue.
    I think the issue is with mailx (mail), which also got updated yesterday. The mail I send requires authentication by the smtp server I'm using, and my scripts provide that, using the smtp-auth-* options to mail. This worked until yesterday. Looking at the mail man page, it appears that mail configuration and these options are about to change with version 15. The current version is 14.7 and purports to support both the old and new-style configuration and options. To turn on the new style, you supposedly invoke an option, -v15-compat, which is off by default. The options I'm using are not v15 compatible, but should work, since I have not provided the option to turn on v15 support. But it appears they do not.
    I will mark this thread SOLVED, since my original diagnosis was wrong.

  • Since most recent update of Firefox, I cannot connect to my printer; it says it is off-line, which it is not. HP Photosmart C5580

    A couple of days ago, I was notified of an update to Firefox. I declined because the details said it was incompatible with some features of my computer. The next time I logged on, the update processed automatically; I had no control. Since then, my HP C5580 printer is treated as off-line; it is not, works fine in test mode, and all connections are tight. I can not figure out what settings are messed up.
    I am not a computer genius, and am not able to be sure that is was the Firefox update that caused the problem. However, this is the only change that has been done to the computer. Is there a way to see if there is an incompatabilty?

    I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

  • I cannot save data on a pdf on my tablet since most recent update

    I use Adobe reader on my Galaxy Note 8 to do audits. I fill in with forms with stylus. Since the update I cannot save any data to forms. The "Save" button, previously in upper right hand corner of screen, is gone. There is only a check mark on the screen. I thought that was to save, but it doesn't work.

    "Stylus mode" -- Are you referring to the "Freehand" annotation tool?  It is available regardless of whether you use a stylus or not.
    In the previous version, the Freehand annotation toolbar looked like this.
    The Save button above is used to commit a particular annotation change.  Please note that it does not save other changes (e.g. filling out form fields) that have been made to a PDF document.
    In the latest version 11.4, it now looks like this.
    Once you add a Freehand annotation to a PDF document, you can tap the checkmark icon to commit the change.  Do you see the change that you've just made on a page? 
    Are any changes (not just addition of Freehand annotations) lost once you close the PDF document?
    If none of the changes you've made have been saved automatically, it is highly likely that you encountered a known problem in Adobe Reader for Android.
    Your PDF document is locally stored on an external SD card (not internal storage).
    Your Android OS version is 4.4 (KitKat).
    Adobe Reader cannot save any changes to the files on an external SD card due to the major Android OS changes to SD card permissions on KitKat.  We are still working on fixing the problems.  In the meantime, please copy the files from your external SD card to your device's internal storage (e.g. /storage/emulated/0/Documents/...) using a File Manager/Browser app or use a cloud storage service (Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.) to store files.
    Please let us know if you need further assistance.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • WHY DOES BATCH MONITOR FAIL EVERY TIME SINCE LATEST OSX UPDATE?

    I cannot get anything out of FCP5 into compressor without BM saying failed as server application quit unexpectedly!!!!????
    This is supposed to be a commercial professional set of tools and so much of the time they just do not work!!!
    Why is the BBC giving up Avid etc and moving down to FCP and compressor etc??
    Sorry for the moan, I am at the point of throwing my G5away in frustration at this point.
    Tom

    Same is happening here.
    I've tried the Pro-Apps update and trashed the files as instructed but Compressor's Batch Monitor quits unexpectedly.
    Ahhh this is really frustrating, am on a tight deadline and really need it to work.
    Weird thing is that once its quit its seems to still process the files, which is a worry as I can't trust the quality of what its doing. My client is going to kill me!
    Apple sort your "Pro" apps out, they need to be reliable!

  • Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display, screen issue since most recent update.

    I had the software update downloaded on my Macbook Pro with Retina display for awhile, and finally got around to installing it. Once I installed it my screen had a little twitch where my screen would look normal but the top of the screen the finder bar, with the wifi icon, battery icon, spotlight icon would also appear on the bottom of the screen yet everything above it appeared normal. I reinstalled os x lion and it was fixed but their are now little black horizontal lines all across my screen, the resolution is fine enough to use but I'm wondering why these lines appear. The lines sometimes go away, also sometimes when I open my laptop my screen has a ultraviolet greenish, purple tint to it that goes away after awhile of sitting. I've determined that my screen is an LG screen and I know they have issues. I was wondering if anyone had the same issues to this and possibly a fix? The laptop was purchased July/2012.

    Hello, did you solve your problem? I have now something like you with my Macbook Pro Retina :-/

  • After most recent update, Firefox keep hanging intermittently with "Not Responding".

    After the most recent update, my Firefox browser begins to hang intermittently with "Not Responding". I have checked the extensions and plug-in like Java, all of them are the latest updated ones. Everytime I open a new site or click on links to load another page, it happens. Every single time.

    '''is there a solution ''(temporary OR permanent)'' for this problem yet?'''
    i tried '''EVERY possible alternative'''; even when opened in ''''''safe mode'''''' or when installed for the first time w| '''NO addons or ANYthing else''' but the '''original default settings''', still does the same thing.
    mozilla people?? really?? no answer|feedback|suggestions, anything at all from u guys??
    if it isnt a version (browser, OS, addons, etc) issue, what is it that separates us from the users not having the problem?
    this is is very frustrating; h|e it's even more frustrating when there is no response from tech support. is it because there havent been enough people who have reported this same issue so there can be some interest & find a fix; OR is it that u dont know; OR that there is not & will not be any fix?
    we cant continue being users if we cannot use it. it's really my favorite browser, but if it doesn't work & u guys dont have a fix for it, then users w| this same problem wont have any other option but to switch to a different browser permanently.
    really mozilla??? nothing? a reply would be very nice...

  • Since the recent update, my Text Messages no longer permit me to send messages to more than two people at a time. How do I resolve this issue?

    Since the most recent update, my IPhone 5c no longer permits me to send text messages to more that two people at a time. How can I resolve this to send text messages to more than two people in a group message.

    It would appear that I can send an SMS to multiple contacts, providing that it's not a forwarded message. This means that I have to start from scratcheach time, and then I can send it to over 30 recipients at a time. Not sure why though, and I'm not sure why the sign doesn't appear all of the time as an option for me to press. At other times, it is particially obscured by the curser/text box. This is obviously a glitch in the system, as it happens inconsistently.

  • Since the most recent update, any previously made captivate files we republish won't display

    (skip to "I'll break down the problem as best as i can" to avoid rant )
    Essentially, we have near a hundred eLearning courses we have made using captivate dating back as early as captivate 4.  We have been upgrading through the versions as we go and where there has always been little glitches that present themselves this one makes the list sense.  This isn't even an upgrade in version, just a little patch (that seemed to add the ability to resize the "Question X of Y" bits on question slides).
    So, does anyone have any help on this problem?  Adobe have been so far not very helpful, essentially offering the wisdom and clarity that comes with years of not trying to fix problems. Their advice being to basically remake each course from the ground up, something that will take a LOT of time (and for what!? to fix their mistake?).
    I'll break down the problem as best as i can:
    Since recent patch to captivate, pre-existing files that we publish again will not display on windows computers but does display on Ipad's, etc.  Uploading to a server does not fix the problem, it remains the same.  The internet window opens up the same as normal but after a brief loading bar moment, the window remains blank.  A check of the code shows that the files are being loaded but simply not displaying in any form.  If we publish a completely new file, it displays fine. The type of browser has no impact on the problem.  We have also found that if we go into the console and use a command to skip to, say, the second frame, it works!?  So the issue literally seems to be with displaying in the first place.
    Thanks in advance if anyone can even help suggest ways to get round this problem, it has come at a terrible time when we need to make changes and present material to another company but can't even view our publishes files.

    The most recent update (to Captivate 7.0.1.237) changed the default autoplay setting for all of our courses to on. Since we haven't changed any settings personally it was easy overlooked, and the autoplay function just doesn't seem to work.
    I tried running cpCmndGotoSlide = 2 in the web developer console and it caused the course to start up, making me realise that the course was indeed loading (I saw that some of the content was loading on firebug but was unsure as to if it was the crucial files) but just not playing and I noticed while investigating that.
    So its just a case of turning off autoplay for the course in the publish settings.
    Also as a note our courses were still working on iPad, I think this is due to apple products not supporting the autoplay of content, especially if it has audio.

    the most recent update resulted in a loss of ALL of my bookmarks. This is not the first time this has happened and it is very disruptive. I tried the steps suggested to find the bookmarks but that failed.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
