Intermittent problem with iCal
My girlfriend has a new Macbook, and has set up 3 calendars (1 of which is Published using www.icalx.com) and she subscribes to my calendar (which is published over MobileMe).
Every time (or nearly every time) she opens iCal, no calendars are showing up at all. In fact, sometimes even the dates don't show up in the mini-month view.
It seems to be a problem with the iCal app more than anything, it's as if it isn't opening properly.
Her shared calendars are still showing up in my iCal on my iMac, so I know the data hasn't been lost, its just a local display issue.
Any way of reinstalling/repairing iCal?
Cheers
After further investigation, Ashley is spot on - if I exit iCal with the ToDo bar open on the right, the next time I open iCal my calendar's have disappeared and the little blue push pin icon that closes the ToDo list won't work, it can't be de-selected.
However if I choose Hide ToDo List from the menu, the ToDo list disappears and my calendars reappear.
If I exit iCal with the ToDo list hidden, the next time I start iCal everything is fine.
I even tried reinstalling iCal from the OS X Install CD, but no luck, the problem persists.
So it seems the temporary solution is to not use ToDos.
By the way, this problem only exists on my girlfriend's new MacBook - I can use iCal on my iMac, including ToDos, just fine.

Help intermittent problem with logging in
Help i have intermittent problem with logging in, sometimes it just comes up with the desktop without any icons or dock and i have to restart the server so i can log on properly, but it doesn't happen all the time, any ideas would be appreciated???
The clients login window just shakes and won't login. I did find one thing that helps some of my Mac Lab woes.
Some students get a dock that only has 3 icons. These students also will have saving and printing problems when they get this default dock.
I think some of the problems occur when the student gets over quota, some preference files get corrupted.
1. Student will login.
2. Open the student's home folder. Then open Library and Preferences.
3. Find the file com.apple.homesync.plist and delete it.
4. Empty Safari Cache and the user's Trash Can and make sure they are not over quota.
5. Logout and login.
This will fix some problems, but not the problem when students can't login at all. -
I recently upgraded to Firefox 13.0.1 and I’m operating a Mac Powerbook Pro with OS of 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
Now I’m having intermittent problems with sending emails where Firefox freezes up. There is often a yellow warning above suggesting 32-bit mode, sometimes I can click to shift it that way, sometimes not.
Anyone having these problems?

I’m having an intermittent problem with my midi controllers triggering Mainstage 3.
I’m using a PreSonus Firebox audio interface.
It’s been working fine for months, but now when I first turn on the computer in the morning , I’m not able to trigger MainStage from the keyboard. I tried different midi controllers, different keyboards, different midi cords, and check midi preferences. The audio interface is working fine and is recogonized, but the midi doesn’twork. I re-started the computer several times and then finally it miraculously starts working again.
I’ve been having to this every day now. Any help or ideas is very much appreciated.I Had the same problem with a FireStudio. Try unplugging the FireWire plug and the power plug. Wait for a few seconds, then plug both back in. The light on my FireStudio was flashing blue/red which means "not connecting." I did what I just described, and everything works again. Hope it works for you.

I have a problem with iCal.Since 2 days ago,I couldn't add new event in iCal on my ipad2.It Keeps saying 'No calendar has been set", then if I go to Calendar field,choose one calendar,it gives this msg "That event doesn't belong to that event store". I can add event from iCloud and from my iCal on my iMac. Please help
Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.) -
I've an intermittent problem with microphone on iphone4
i have an intermittent problem with my microphone on my iphone4
what kind of problem do you have with the microphone?
You may want to take a look at http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802 since its the iphone hardware troubleshooting page.
It could just be a hardware problem. You may need to get it in to an apple store. -
Intermittent problem with Personal Hotspot
Hello All
I think either my iPad 2 or my iPhone 4 is mental. Can anyone convince me otherwise?
For some months now I have been experiencing an intermittent problem with tethering my iPad 2 to my iPhone 4 Personal Hotspot.
Sometimes it works without a hitch (although I have to turn the Personal Hotspot on the phone off and on again to get iPad to 'see' it) and at others, like now, it shows me the message 'Unable to join the network 'iPhone'. It throws the message up so quickly that even though it 'sees' the phone in the list of networks, it behaves as though it can't actually be bothered to even try to connect.
I have tried reboots and restarts, 'forgetting' the network, changing passwords, sacrificing a chicken... all the usual stuff. But still when it gets in this kind of mood it stubbornly refuses to do anything. I have even taken it to the Apple store where, not surprisingly it worked first time and the assistant looked at me as though I was an idiot. It then proceeded not to work for a couple of days again as if punishing me. There is no problem with the general Wi-Fi connection as I have another phone (an Android) that I run as a Hotspot too. It has never once had a problem connecting to this or any other Wi-Fi connection..
Confusingly, and rather irritatingly, after a few days of this not-connecting lark it will have a few days of not having a problem connecting at all. I won't have changed any settings on either iPad or iPhone and so I have no way of figuring out why this is happening. This has been the same situation with all versions of iOS I have installed ever since buying the phone in April 2012, and the iPad in June 2012.
Please, is there anyone out in the ether that can suggest a solution to this? Or is one of my Apple products simply mad? I have given both devices a strong talking-to, but this hasn't sorted the problem either. Next, I think I might have to try sacrificing a goat.I have the same issues with my iPhone 5 (6.1.4). I do not have an answer for you, and perhaps my "workaround" will lead someone with more knowledge about these things to offer us more information.
When I turn on the Personal Hotspot and it does not show up as visible on my iPad or MacBook, or offers that ambiguous message about being unavle to join the network, I perform a few steps that almost always resolves it. I have to go through these steps twice sometimes. The order of operations seems to affect the outcome (at least it appears to me that it does)
Turn off WiFi on the client device (iPad, MacBook, Windows laptop, KindleFire, etc)
Turn off Personal Hotspot on iPhone
Turn off Bluetooth on iPhone
Turn off WiFi on iPhone
Then turn on Personal Hotspot and allow it to automatically start WiFi and Bluetooth.
Turn on the client WiFi services.
Connection successful!
As I said, I sometimes need to perform the steps ablve twice, but it eventually works. It is incredibly frustrating to go through these hoops to make the device perform. I do not know precisely when the problem began to occur, but I don't think it did not occur on my iPhone 4s with IOS5.
Any help from the Apple guys would be appreciated. I think it is a software issue, because the shutdown of services and restart seems to resolve the issue. I guess I might take a trip to the Aple Store to have them look at this behavior. -
Hi everybody. I have recently started having problems with iCal (Version 2.05 (1069). Events that I thought I had deleted appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. Likewise Events that I have not deleted have disappeared from my calender (Month View) but appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. I see that there have been similar problems with Events disappearing especially in Month View. I wondered how print preview seemrd to be picking everything up deleted or not, and what the solution may be?. First time of Posting. I hope I haven't embarassed myself.
Hmmmm.
At the very least there must be a "com.apple.ical.plist"...iCal would not function without it.
Click on the Finder icon in the dock
Click on Go > Home
Double-click Library
Double-click Preferences
Look for a file called "com.apple.ical.plist" and remove it to the trash. -
Suddenly I am experiencing problems with iCal crashing after I try to drag items into the TO DO column. The calender grid suddenly shows through the TO DO area and everything comes to a halt. Any suggestions.
Dual 450 G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)When I try to do anything involving the "to do"'s things just stop working. Here is where it gets strange. If I transfer via iSync a "to do" from my palm pilot to iCal the "to do" will not show up in iCal. BUT then when I sync Omni Outliner with iCal it will pull the "to do" from somewhere in iCal and put it in the "in box" in Omni Outliner. What in the heck is going on here?

Why am I having intermittant problems with my Galaxy Note 4 touch screen?
I've had my new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 for two days now and have noticed intermittant problems with the touch screen. I've even added more touch screen sensitivity in the settings area and it has NOT helped at all. Sometimes I can tap on the screen repeatedly and find the phone not respond, then all of a sudden it responds. As I keep using the touch screen...suddenly it stops responding again. It's extremely frustrating especially when it's a brand new phone. I have now found several other reports of this on the internet, but have not found a fix. Suggestions (besides reset to factory settings and install each app one by one and test the phone)? Since it's an intermittant problem, it's hard to tell if any particular app is the sole contributing factor to this. Based on my experience and that of others...this appears to be a fairly common "bug" that we consumers are experiencing. Help!?

Intermittent problem with access point (WAP321)
We hane an intermittent problem with our Wifi access point WAP321. Suddenly, all clients are unable to access Internet, server and local network. The signal is 100%. The message is no internet connection or limited connection (on all device, Iphone, computer, etc.). When I check to Ip configuration, the ip adress have change for loca 169.x.x.x. The only way to resolve is to reboot the access point. (POE).
It seem that access point don't relay information to rest of network. Strange.
The access point is connected to a simple unmanaged switch. This switch is connect to router and server. The serveur (Win2008) is the DHCP Server and DNS Server.
Can you help me to find a solution. ?This may be the problem;

New 4s connected to my Lexus bluetooth. Having intermittent problem with calls. I can hear them, but they can't hear me. Never a problem with 3gs phone. Anyone else having this problem?
I ended up getting a new phone, straight through Apple. I called their technical support and went through all he basics again and they decided to replace it. Was a pretty quick process - after defaulting and resetting the whole phone (about 2 hours), I called them back to inform that there was no change, so they set up the order.
I had to give my CC# so they could hold a charge on it (in case I didn't send my old phone bach, which they sent me a pre-posted package to send it in anyway). Had a brand new iPhone 4S in my hands in 4 days, which was pretty decent. I had uploaded everything previously to iCloud, so setting up the new phone was a snap.
Only thing I really didn't like was they charged me almost 30 bucks for shipping or processing, or something. Not so sure that should have been my responsibility after spending so much on a brand new product, only to have to have it warrantied after, like, a month. -
Intermittent problem with TestStand calling CVI DLL calling MSCV DLL
Sorry about cross post, but I am not sure which group is best to address
this issue.
Setup:
Windows 2000 SP1
TestStand 2.01f
CVI 6.0
MSVC++ 6.0 SP5
Problem:
I have a CVI Test Library DLL that contains test functions called by
TestStand using the C/CVI adapter. The CVI Test Library DLL in turn makes
several calls to another DLL written in MSVC++. I am experiencing an
intermittent problem with one of the MSVC functions. The problem ~appears~
to be stack related, but I am not sure. Among other things, this MSVC
function accepts a const char * argument that is a TestStand lookup string.
The function uses this string to access the TestStand API.
What happens is this: Everything works fine. I then recompile the CVI DLL
after making some mod, then run. The MSVC++ DLL asserts that the const char
* arg passed by the CVI DLL is NULL. However, this is not the case if I
single step through the CVI code. It has happened both with passing
variables as the const char * argument and as hardcoded strings literals, so
its not that I am actually passing NULL. The other argument to this
function is the TestStand sequence context dispatch pointer (LPDISPATCH
pobjSequenceContextDisp) and it always ~appears~ to be passed correctly.
The problem is frustrating and hard to debug because I can not
deterministically reproduce it. The problem ~never~ appears when I debug my
MSVC++ DLL in Visual Studio. And it only occasionally appears otherwise.
The problem, when it appears, always appears on the first run after
recompiling the CVI DLL, though the problem does not happen after ~every~
recompilation. I'd say it happens 1 in 6 times after a recompile.
Recompiling the exact same code does not always make the problem disappear.
If I change the CVI code (code that has nothing to do with the argument
itself though) and recompile the problem almost always goes away. Selecting
'Mark all for compilation' and rebuilding does not make the problem go away.
Only tweaking the CVI code and recompiling does (usually).
Whats more, the problem appears:
* With the CVI DLL built as Debug or Release mode.
* With the CVI default calling convention set to __stdcall or __cdecl.
* With the C/CVI TestStand adapter set to run in-process or external
instance of CVI.
The problem appears to be some sort of stack or argument passing problem
between CVI and MSVC, though thats just a guess based on the symptoms. I
have quadruple checked the calling conventions of all declared functions.
The CVI DLL functions all use TX_TEST (which resolves to __cdecl). The MSVC
DLL functions all explicitly use __stdcall. Is there a problem with calling
__stdcall MSVC functions from a __cdecl CVI function?
I can find no other memory leaks or indications of memory corruption
elsewhere in either the CVI or MSVC DLLs. Its only this one function that
exhibits this strange 'null const char *' problem.
Can anyone offer any ideas about what may be causing this problem? Anything
else I should check/verify?

I was under the impression that as long as everything was explicitly and
consistently declared, you could safely mix cdecl and stdcall f
unction
calls. Is it bad to do this? Is this a known issue with the CVI compiler?
I've never seen a problem with doing this under MSVC++.
I'll try wrapping them in cdecl calls for CVI - though we have a
depressingly large number of stdcall functions in the MSVC DLL ;-). They
need to remain stdcall in the DLL because we also call them from Visual
Basic.

I verified that the MSVC DLLs were either ALL Debug or Release. I too have
seen nasty problems when MSVC Debug and Release is mixed.
One thing I had not thought of until your reply: What about mixing CVI Debug
DLLs with MSVC Release DLLs? Have you ever seen issues with doing this?
Thanks!

Intermittent problem with voice mail
Siince I had a new system installed two years ago on my phone, I have intermittent problems with the phone which tech support does not want to resolve. They says that unless they see it, it is not their problem. Nice attitude.
I call voice mail, and it doesn't recognize my pin. I try it again, doesn't recognize the pin. Then I enter my phone number. Doesn't recognize the phone number, tells me that I don't have a voice mail on my phone. I hang up, and call again. This time I do get through with the phone number. I hear my message. Now I can't erase the message. I have to call back to hopefully get through to the message.
It is ridiculous. I am ready to cut all phone service to my house if I don't get this fixed.Your issue has been escalated to a Verizon agent.

Intermittent problem with PC Suite - no text is di...
I have an intermittent problem with PC Suite - every so often it will stop displaying any text.
For eaxmple, right-click on the task bar icon gives a list of icons for backup, messages, sync etc., but the text is missing. Also, the 'tool-tips' in the application itself are empty grey boxes.
Restarting PC Suite solves the problem for a while, but it always comes back.
The main problem is that when it gets in this state, incoming call alerts don't show the name/number.
Has anyone else had this and managed to sort it.
I'm running PC Suite 7.1.40.6 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T61p running Windows XP SP3. The phone is a 6230i connected via Bluetooth.
Thanks.
Alan.Yes the Support line directed me to try a different USB port, with no luck.
Also looked for the connection in windows device manager>>nothing appeared except the computers ports...
[quote]Hi, Here is something what you could try to do: 1. Uinstall Nokia PC Suite 6.82.22 (or 6.7 or 6.8x) and restart PC. 2. Go to Windows' Control Panel and open "Add or Remove Programs" application. 3. If there are "PC Connectivity Solution" (or "Nokia PC Connectivity Solution" and/or "Nokia Connectivity Cable driver", uninstall those and restart PC. 4. Install PC Suite 6.82.22 and restart PC. If problem happen again: 1. Go to Windows' Control Panel and open "Add or Remove Programs" application. 3. Select "PC Connectivity Solution", click "Change" and then "Repair". 4. After Repair, restart PC. And if no help again: Save RegPCSuiteComponents.bat file to C:\Program Files\PC Connectivity Solution\ folder. Then go that folder and run it (double-click that file). After that restart PC. Does any of those help you?? [/quote]
I've tried your 1st & 2nd suggestions....but I can't find the "connectivity solution" folder you mention (and being a complete noob (!) I don't know what a .bat file is (nor how to use it lol)
In fact I can't find PC Suite anywhere in the program files. I REALLY think that it wasn't installed OK....it should not have taken less than one second to download if it took 1 3/4 hrs initially
