IMovie stops responding while my camcorder is connected

I have a Canon Elura 60 that I have used in the past to work with movies on my PowerMac G5 however I just went to put some more home movies in iMovie 6 and whenever my camcorder is connected, iMovie just hangs. As soon as I unplug it, iMovie comes to life. Like I said, I have used it in the past with no issues. I've restarted my camcorder and Mac and in the camcorder display, it shows DV In meaning it sees the Mac.
On a related note, the same thing happened awhile ago when I tried to use my camcorder with iChat which I also have done in the past. I just don't know if I have tried to use my camcorder with iMovie 6. It may have been with iMovie 4 or 5.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I just connected my Camcorder to my iBook and ran iMovie with no problems and it connected fine if that helps.
I do need this to work with my PowerMac though as I dont like the thought of movie editing on the timy 14", low brightness LCD monitor on my iBook...

Internet Explorer stops responding while using CodedUI test builder to record a test

Hi,
Here is my problem description:
Internet explorer (9, 10, 11) stops responding while using CodedUI Test Builder to record a test scenario in IE. I am not able to input any values or click any buttons or perform any action on IE while recording a test on a remote desktop (visual studio
and IE are both on remote machine). Also tried by directly accessing the machine but no luck. The test builder says 'could not record the last action...'
A hand-coded script plays back fine without any problem.
System Details:
OS: Window 7 Professional with SP1 64-bit
Browser: IE 11 (tried with IE 9/10 also with no luck)
Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Edition
I have tried the following from my past similar experiences.
1. Checked that I am recording on 32 bit IE
2. Tried with IE 9/10/11
3. Reset IE to factory settings
I will appreciate if someone can share some thoughts on the likely problem(s) and any recommended solution.
Regards,
Pankaj

Hi Pankaj,
>>'could not record the last action...'.
Actually it means that the coded UI test builder doesn't record the actions, I met this issue before when my machine is so busy, so I will get this issue if I record the steps so quickly.
I'm not very sure that how you connect to your remote desktop and record the actions, but like the above actions, we have to make sure that the steps were recorded in the Recorded Action window like A.
If not, please delete the steps from the no-recorded steps and re-record them again, maybe you could record the steps slowly.
I doubt that the remote connection impacts the recorded actions performance.
Best Regards,
Jack

Final cut pro HD, application stops responding while attempting to open

I was using fcp 3.0.2 on a 10.3.5 G4, added the updates for os 10.3.6,10.3.7,10.3.8,10.3.9, then upgraded to QT 7pro, all yesterday. then upgraded to fcpHD from a production suite that I had but hadn't installed for about a year. now fcpHD stops responding while its starting up, always at the same spot when it says" loading audio filters", i tried starting fcp3 and it also stops responding during the application start up. any suggestions on ressurecting fcpHD or even 3? thanks, TB

Welcome to the forum thomas93!
Post more about your Mac... when was the last time you rebuilt the startup disk from the ground up? Might download and read my article on just how to do this. It's in the first issue of the Creative COW magazine... free pdf download after registering here: http://magazine.creativecow.net/index.html
It sure sounds like your software is all messed up...
I'd trash your preference files for FCP found here: User/Library/Application support/Final Cut Pro User data folder, then see if it opens... if not I'd erase the hard drive and start over ESPECIALLY if your mac didn't come with Panther, and you just "upgraded" to it from an earlier OS long ago... You'll need to backup everything you want to save first... or install a new ATA in your Mac, and install Panther on it, then the FCP software you have. You'll not need to install any earlier versions either, just have your serial number for the older version you're upgrading from ready when you install FCP HD.
You also should be running QT 6 NOT QT 7 unless you upgrade to Tiger.

Itunes 7 stops responding while updating library iTunes for windows

itunes 7 stops responding while updating library iTunes for windows. it get about 75 percent done then, freezes, task manager says itunes has stopped responding. any help out there?

the update might be choking on a song file (or files).
finding which song file is involved can be tricky. but some folks have been having some success using Roy B's instructions from the following post:
Roy B: Re: iTunes 7.0.1 crashes every time I open it

Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding, why? WiFi is connected.

Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding, why? WiFi is connected.

It could very well be the the server holding the web page you are trying to access has stopped responding. Just because you are connected to your Wi-Fi network does not mean that every possible web page will be available.

Imovie stopped responding?

Hi, can somebody help? I've been using imovie for a while with no issue, then today it suddenly stopped responding, and the small coloured circle keeps spinning. I have 'force quit' several times plus rebooted my mac but it still wont work. Any ideas ? Thanks

No
I mean trash the iMovie pref file - in the Library IN YOUR ACCOUNT folder - not the one on Your Mac hard disk first window.
Easiest way to find out if this is the problem is by
• Creating a New User Account - Apple menu / Down to System prefs / Accounts - Plus sign
• log out and into this new one
Does iMovie work OK now - then the problem most probably is the pref file.
• Delete iMovie pref. file
iMovie pref. file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named. (one or more of these)
com.apple.iMovie.plist
com.apple.iMovie3.plist
com.apple.iMovie7.plist
com.apple.iMovie8.plist
com.apple.iMovie9.plist
com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
and find
com.apple.iApps.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
If You run Mac OS X.7 or more - then the Library in the User-account folder is invisibly and need to be set to be viewable. IT IS NOT in the Library on Root level (when opening MacintoshHD - first window = root level)
( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )
or - do like this.
On the Finder window at the top left of the screen,
Hold down the Option key and clicked on Go.
This allowed You to see the Library folder and select it.
Then keep the Option button pressed down in order to see and select the Library folder.
Once found it, You are able to navigate to the iMovie preferences file and move it to the trash. iMovie then start’s up fine!
Yours Bengt W

TMG Stops responding every 4 days / many connection drops with idle vpn connections

Hi everyone!
I am running a TMG Firewall with about 200 users connected on Server 2008 R2 - patch level 7.0.9193.601.
It is virtualized on a Hyper-V 2008 R2. Additionally we have 4 IPsec Site2Site VPNs configured in Windows Advanced Firewall - as TMG doesn't provide such a comfortable way to configure them directly in TMG.
About 3 Months ago that TMG started to lose connectivity from time to time. At first we were not monitoring that problem precisely as we thought it was an isp issue but some days before christmas that tmg server just dropepd every outgoing connection
and stopped listening!
I was able to control the server over hyper-v directly but no connection in or outbound could be established. (no VPN inc or surf outgoing)
I checked the event logs and there was NO other error than the errors from TMG connection verifiers...
As far as I was able to tell tmg still worked as far as logs and engine was conserned but no routing was done at all!
The last resort was to reboot the TMG then everything worked as before...
This behavior then appeard every 4 days... - simple workaround scheduled reboot every 3 days!
But that is no statisfying solution.... additionally some vpn users reported that their connections has quite annoying drops from time to time, unfortunately I was not able to trace the error.
Possible sources that I can exclude:
-Backup (online snapshot with ArcServe - the server was NOT saved)
-AV (Symantec Endpoint protection 12.1 - was uninstalled nothing changed)
Any ideas??
Best regards

Hi,
opening a MS case seems not to be so easy...
As long as I have no clue whats going on exactly there is no ms case.
Any other suggestions??
I started collecting Perfmon data: everything seems to be OK.
- hardly any backlogged packets
- during working hours about 10 pages / sec (memory)
Some Values:
Free System Page Table Entries: 33.555
Pool Nonpaged Bytes: 88.646.372 Bytes = 84,53 MB
Pool Paged Bytes: 266.842.112 Bytes = 254,48 MB
System Driver Total Bytes: 4.812.800 Bytes = 4,5MB
Handle Count (wspsrv): 11.338Private Bytes (wspsrv): 821.944.320 Bytes = 783,86 MB
Working Set (wspsrv): 609.697.792 Bytes = 581,4 MB
Virtual Bytes (wspsrv): 1.747.615.744 Bytes = 1,666 GBThread Count (wspsrv): 69
I'll keep collecting data for two days because my last reboot was 2 days ago - if my observations were correct TMG will stop responding monday morning or during lunchtime at latest.

Router stops responding, have to restart computer connection

When our computers use a lot of bandwidth the router soon stops responding. Network monitors on computers report 0b/s download and around 50b/s upload rates. We have to restart the connection from the computers.
Phenomena is consistent with 4 different laptops, one running ubuntu, others Windows.
Our computers never loose connection on other networks.
I tried many different router settings, including factory defaults, I always get this problem.
Situation is unbearable. I ended up running a 50 ft cable accross the house because I just can't waste all that time restarting my connection every 5 minutes and waiting for it to connect.
Can I conclude the router is physically broken? I didn't keep the original packaging so I'm not sure I can send it back, beside I can't afford to go without an internet connection for 2 weeks, waiting for a router...

Did you reset the router after upgrading the router's firmware....If not then,Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

Firefox stops responding while loading a specific website

Whenever I open firefox and immediately try to load the website http://www.espncricinfo.com/ , firefox stops responding. But if I try to load this site after browsing some other sites, the problem seems to resolve automatically. The website loads without any problem in Chrome or IE. I encountered this problem first with firefox 14 and with firefox 15, the problem persists.

Start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Safe Mode] and check it again to see if one of the your extensions or hardware acceleration is the problem.
Do not click the Reset button. If the problem does not happen in Safe Mode see : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems ]

Mail Stops Responding While Sending Messages

Mail has been freezing on me a lot lately when I am sending a message. I tried to find a pattern, and it seems the problem is multi-tasking. Since I have Activity Viewer open all the time, I can see what Mail is doing. If I send an e-mail and try to do something else in Mail before the message is sent (as shown in Activity Viewer), then Mail stops responding. This something else could be opening the original message, opening a different message, deleting a message, filing a message, viewing a different folder, etc.
Does anyone know why this happens and if there is anything I can do?

I am seeing the same issue just as you described. Have you managed to find a solution? It just seems to be a recent problem.

Automator Stops Responding while trying to perform "Get Image URLs from Webpage"

I have seen it in many tutorials, and it seems strait forward enough, so here is my order of events for my scriptl;
Get Current Webpage from Safari
Get Image URLs from Webpage [linked from these webpages]
Download URLs [Downloads]
However when I run this script it returns the get current webpage quickly but then hangs on Get Image URLs from webpage either never passes or takes 700+ seconds to move to the next step.
The times it did pass to the next step it worked 98% still missed images occasionaly.
After I figure out how to fix this issue, I am looking for a way to make it create a new folder, and name it according to the sub directory of the webpage, for example:
http:\\www.mypictures.com\Birthday\01.JPG
http:\\www.mypictures.com\Birthday\02.JPG
would create folder Birthday, and save images 1 and 2
Then in the future I want to download another set such as;
http:\\www.mypictures.com\MothersDay\01.JPG
http:\\www.mypictures.com\MothersDay\02.JPG
As these are both named 01.JPG the sets would overwrite, or add strange numbers and not divide by set by default;
So I need this script to create folders based on Directory (portion of url) In my example it would be MothersDay, and Birthday folders.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Mike

I should add, it has simply frozen and stopped responding about 95% of the 20 times or so I have run it. I have tried rebooting (not sure if that helps on Mac, I'm still new to the OS been a windows user for a long time but so far I love my Mac).

Project started in Terminal session stops responding while saving to maped network drive from user wokstation.

Project is installed on Windows 2012R2 and is used as RemoteApp.
If rdp file is configured to connect all or any user local drives Project hangs just after pressing "Save" button. If i forbid local drive mapping in collection settings or just rdp file - everythig works. The problem is that we need to map local
drives because we use file associations.
I've seen a lot of same questions about different Office applications hanging while saving to \\tsclient without solutions :(

vden,
Thanks for the post! Let me confirm that I understand the issue, when drive redirection is enabled and you attempt to save a file to the mapped local drive the RemoteApp application hangs?
If my understanding of the issue is correct, this should not happen. Does the app, for example, Project ever recover or does it always remain hung?

Qosmio X500 - Stops responding, while watching video

Hello everyone! This problem occurs not very often, but it is quite strange and annoying, so I decided to post it here.
When I am watching a video file, the screen suddenly blacks out, the speakers start crunching disgustingly (don't know, how to describe this sound more precisely), and the computer does not respond to any of my actions, like pushing buttons or using the touchpad. The only thing that helps is to shut it down and reboot. Does anyone else have the same problem? Please, tell me, if you know what can be causing it and how to fix it.
Thank you!

Hi cheker,
Thats really strange and I dont know why this happens... Maybe your notebook is overheating. Have you tried to clean it using compressed air spary? This could blow out the dust from the cooling ventilators and therefore its not necessary to disassemble the notebook.
Furthermore try to update the display driver and BIOS. Both you can download on the Toshiba website.
Another interesting thing: Which OS you have installed? Does this happen with factory settings?

Firefox stops responding during Gmail and Google, why?

The last few weeks, Firefox 4.1.0, on my XP SP3 system, stops responding while I am sending Gmail, frequently, stopping the transmission. Today, for the first time, it stopped responding while I was searching on Google.
The LAST thing I want to do is go back to Microsoft's IE.
JMS

Well, clearing cookies and cache over and over does not work.
Also, Firefox stops working with many sites now and I am tired of closing it down every 3 minutes. So, my solution this morning was to import my bookmarks to Google Chrome and it worked. After using Firefox for many, many years, I will now be using Google Chrome.
