IDVD just disappears (in the encoding phase) when creating a DVD
I have this problem on different themes and can occur when creating single as well as dual layer disks.
iDVD suddenly disappears and disk utility pops up (presumably because the blank DVD is now available to the OS).
I checked the console - though it's fairly meaningless to me - and found the following:
errors over and over

Please, what is going on and can I fix it somehow? It's no joke when this happens especially when you are on a deadline to produce the DVD.
Greetings,
Did you try my suggestions including the caches and plists?
When burning from iDVD, make sure Disk Utility is not open. Having two program running that access the DVD burner at the same time might add complexity to the issue.
Can ANYONE at APPLE confirm that this will NOT happen if I upgrade to iLIFE 09?????
As stated in the Terms of Use we all agreed to when signing up for the Discussions, this is a user forum for users to talk to users. To contact Apple: www.apple.com/contact
As the issue you described is not a known issue in any version of iDVD ever, it is not something that was "fixed" in any new release. However, reinstalling all the core components (like installing a new version or just reinstalling period) can resolve issues with the Application itself. If the issue is with the OS then reinstalling the iDVD Application (which didn't change much from '08 to '09) will not make much of a difference.
Try reinstalling iDVD: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3249
I would also suggest reseting the hardware of the computer itself:

How do you change the max data when creating a DVD?
I recently filmed a show and am making DVD copies. The show runs 1hour 45mins and is about 79gb in HD. I'm using compressor 4.1 to create the DVDs so it fits on one disc. I've made a few test copies but so far every DVD freezes at around 43 mins when I play it in another computer or dvd player. I heard in a blog that reducing the max data should solve the problem. This is my first time using compressor and I wanted to know where do you go to change the max data and how will that affect the video quality? Also, what is the suggested range of data limits for a project of this size?
ThanksDuplicate the Create DVD preset from the Settings pane and name it.
Select the MPEG setting in the batch window.
Open the Inspector and click the Video tab.
Choose your "Encoding Mode" (CBR, etc.).
Uncheck Automatically Select Bit Rate.
You can then move the slider: somewhere around 4 Mb per second should be about right.
Just to add that you might also have a problem with the physical media. Try another brand to see whether that makes a difference.

My albums and slideshows disappeared from the left column when I ejected a Canon camera after a download. My version of iPhoto '08 (V7.1.5(378)) had just crashed when I first connected the Canon camera to download. I restarted iPhoto.....successfully downloaded 22 photos, and ejected Canon camera, upon which albums & slideshows highlighted blue and disappeared from the left column. The photos still seem to be under the EVENTS and PHOTOS in the LIBRARY. Any thoughts?
Restore from your back up.

Press "audio" in "media" and iDVD just disappears/shuts down
Hello folks,
This problem is perplexing me and I couldn't find something similar on previous posts.
I am trying to add audio to my DVD (photo and video is working fine) and when I click the audio button in the media area, the whole iDVD just disappears.
Can anyone help me with this? Also I'm having problems with adding music to my iPhoto slideshows, when before I had no problem.
can they be related?
Many thanks in advance...the whole iDVD just disappears.
This frequently helps solve some problems. Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
You'll need to reset some Preferences. -
I have been using Firefox for almost a year now,and had upgraded to Version 7 recently.
My problem started with the downloads.
1) When a download is to be commenced,a box appears with two options,namely "SAVE" and "CANCEL".
Even when I click on "SAVE",the the box shows it as 'cancelled'.When I right click on the box,another dialogue box appears with a number of choices ,the top one reads 'RETRY'.
When I click this option the download starts and it is shown in the chosen location until 99% is completed,bu the moment the download is complete,the item i.e. the downloaded item just disappears from the chosen location and is not traceable thereafter.This has happened to me repeatedly over the past week or so and I am so disgusted that I have been compelled to uninstall Firefox,and have started using Chrome.
Please help,as I would like to get back to using Firefox again but without the above problems.Understood. However, the point that I'm trying to make is that it's not the WiFi access point's security that's in question, it's having your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode that's in question. It's simple: if your phone's WiFi is on, then it is both discoverable and hackable... even when it's not connected to a WiFi network or access point. Here's an article about a drone in London that was created to hack smartphone WiFi signals (and hackers have been doing what this drone does for years):
http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/20/technology/security/drone-phone/
The point is that it's not secure to have your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode. It would be better for privacy and security if Apple made WiFi location aware so that it is only enabled when you are at a trusted location (e.g. your home or office). Or, at least give us the option of location aware WiFi so that each user can determine the best mode for their phone:
(1) Always-On (current default - not secure and many privacy issues).
(2) Trusted mode (only on at trusted locations).
(3) Off. -
How to change the default save encoding of the dvm files when create dvm???
When I creating a DVM(domain-value mapping) in Chinese on the ESB control and confirm it, then restarted the SOA service, the DVM that I created in Chinese disappeared from ESB control. All the maps(both English and Chinese ) are in DVM Repository.
After I updated the encoding from ‘UTF-8’ to ‘GB2312’ in the three files below, and restarted the SOA service, the DVM in Chinese appeared on ESB control.
But when I adding the second row in Chinese and save it, then restart the SOA service, the DVM in Chinese disappeared from ESB Control once again. Because the encoding in the three files below is updated from ‘GB2312’ to ‘UTF-8’ .
Files:
C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\metadata\files\dvm.def.xml
C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\metadata\files\dvm\Chinese.xml.def.xml
C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\content\files\dvm\Chinese.xml_1.0
How to change the default save encoding of the dvm files when create dvm in ESB control ???I have the same problem. When I updated to Mavericks now the bookmarks bar font is huge. I liked it the way it was before. I liked the smaller font. Also wish I could change the color of the sidebar and font/folders too.
I tried to see in preferences if there was anyway to change it, but I don't see anything there. -

any kind of help would be highly appreciated. the wireless device just disappeares from the device manager list and when i added one from the legacy devices it says though the software for this device is installed properly but still this will not work properly errod code :31Hi
Your notebook supports the Realtek 802.11(b/g/n) RTL8188CE WLan chip.
First of all you should check the control panel -> software are
Check if there is something installed related to Realtek Wlan driver.
If yes, then uninstall this piece of software firstly.
If you will not find any Realtek Wlan software there, I recommend downloading the driver from here:

The latest available version seems to be 1005.19.0420.2011
feedback would be appreciated... -
I am trying to setup my new time capsule but it is not working. after entering the airport utility and locating the TC, after I tell the program to continue, the unit just disappear from the menu and the setup menu says there is an error. I tried using the wireless connection, and also the cable, but none worked. Any idea of what could be happening?
What are you setting it up as.. join wireless network .. the very worst setup, it will disappear.. reboot the whole network in order modem. router TC.. clients and it will likely reappear.
Tell us what network setup you are using..
If you setup with cable to a computer completely isolated from the network with TC also isolated.. finish the setup of everything you want. .before update.. then plug it into the network. .then restart everything in correct order.. it will work most of the time. -
how do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3? i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow. i see how you do it with presets when you just play a slideshow, but i don't see an option to randomly shuffle the slide order when you create a new slideshow. i know you can sort it by different fields, but i want it to be random. thanks.
If you want to rearrange images in random order you can try an AppleScript:
retrieve a list of selected images from Aperture
shuffe the list properly
create an album in Aperture and add the images from the list to the album (make sure that the album set to be orederd manually)
Here is a sample script that shuffles the selected images and displays them in random order in Full Screen Mode:
on removeItem(ims, i)
-- remove the item at position "i" from a list ims
if ims is {} then return {}
if (length of ims is 1) then return {}
if i < 2 then return rest of ims
if (i = length of ims) then return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims)
if i > (length of ims) then return ims -- should be error?
return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims) & (items (i + 1) thru (length of ims) of ims)
end removeItem
on shuffle_items(ims)
-- shuffle the items of the list "ims" randomly
local numitems, ims_shuffled, nextrest, nextpick, i
set numitems to length of ims
if length of ims < 2 then return ims
set ims_shuffled to {}
set nextrest to ims
repeat until nextrest is {}
set i to (random number (numitems - 1)) + 1
set nextpick to item i of nextrest
set beginning of ims_shuffled to nextpick
set numitems to numitems - 1
set nextrest to removeItem(nextrest, i)
end repeat
return ims_shuffled
end shuffle_items
on shuffleIms()
-- retrieve the selected images from Aperture
-- and display them in random order in full screen mode
local imageSel, shuffled, i
tell application "Aperture"
activate
set imageSel to (get selection)
set shuffled to my shuffle_items(imageSel)
set fullscreen to true
if imageSel is {} then error "Please select some images."
repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
reveal {item i of shuffled}
delay 3 -- chnage that to the time you want
end repeat
set fullscreen to false
return shuffled
end tell
end shuffleIms
shuffleIms()
Some more code snippets to go from here:
To create an album:
tell library 1
if not (exists album "shuffledAlbum") then
make new album with properties {name:"shuffledAlbum", image version:shuffled}
end if
end tell
And to add the images from the shuffled list to the album:
repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
duplicate item i of shuffled to album "shuffledAlbum"
end repeat

My emails in mail have just disappeared leaving the headers of date etc
my emails in mail have just disappeared leaving the headers of date etc
any one out there who has had this before
smburcQuit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
Envelope Index
ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Warning: The process may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. For reasonable-sized mailboxes, it should only take a few minutes.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results. -

How to get cm:search to use the max attribute when creating the SQL query?
When we use the max attribute in the cm:search tag, it does not seem to honor the max attribute when creating the SQL query. However, the result returned from the tag is limited to the number specified by the max attribute. Then the tag seems to work as intended, but the performance will be sub optimal when the SQL query returns unnecessary rows to the application.
We use the cm:search tag to list the latest news (ordered by date), and with the current implementation we have to expect a decrease in performance over time as more news is published. But we can’t live with that. We need to do the constraint in the SQL query, not in the application.
The sortBy attribute of cm:search is translated to “order by” in the SQL query, as expected.
Is it possible to get cm:search to generate the SQL query with an addition of “where rownum <= maxRows”?Hi Erik,
The behavior of a repository in regards to the search tag's max results parameter is dependent on the underlying repository's implementation. That said, the OOTB repository in WLP does augment the generated SQL to limit the number of rows returned from the database. This is done in the parsing logic. This behavior may differ with other repository implementations.
