Is there a problem with Virtual PC and OS 10.4.4?

After installing OS 10.4.4 (which gave me my first EVER Mac system crash!) I found that when running Virtual PC (6.1) I had to re-install Windows XP. I didn't need the CD; everything was still on the hard drive, but I had to re-register it. Has this affected anyone else?
Of course, I don't actually KNOW that it was caused by 10.4.4; it may have been a coincidence. But it's never happened before.
Everything runs fine so far after the reinstallation.

  • Is there a problem with the itunes and quick time download pages or is it my internet.

    Is there a problem with the itunes and quicktime download pages or is it just my internet.

    Some more developments ... the issue appears to be browser-specific. I can't see the download controls at the moment in either IE 8 (I'll get your message) or Safari for Windows 5.0.5 (I'll just get the blank box). But I can see the download controls in Firefox 4 and Chrome (whatever version I have of that).
    So it might be worth installing Firefox and seeing if you can get the downloads via that:

  • I have a second generation shuffle and even though (after charging ) the green battery light is on - soon after it turns orange and then red. Is there a problem with the battery and is it fixable?

    I have a second generation shuffle and even though (after charging) the green battery light is on it soon turns orange and red. Is there a problem with the battery and if so is it fixable?

    If it's a 2nd gen shuffle, it is probably about six years old at this point.  The cause is likely to be a worn out battery that is no longer able to hold its charge for very long.
    It is technically fixable.  This web site has repair guides
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Shuffle
    But it is very small, so you need to be good at doing such things.  The cost to have a repair shop do the work is likely to be uneconomical, compared to the cost of a brand new 4th gen shuffle ($50), which has more features (and possibly double the storage) plus a one-year warranty.

  • Problem with Virtual PC and Network Connection - VPC gets disconnected

    Hi,
    I've been having a few problems with a virtual computer and its network connection.  I've set up a few computers the same way over the years and they all work fine except this one.  We use the Virtual PC and XP mode to access our data from an older
    program.  The databases are on a server, which are accessed as a mapped drive.  Every once in a while (with no particular pattern, sometimes it doesn't happen all day, sometimes it happens every 5 mins), the VPC gets disconnected from the network,
    my program returns a file read error and then everything is frozen.  When I try to ipconfig/release and renew, it releases correctly then it won't renew.  I need to shut down the VPC from the Win7 task manager and even so, it doesn't shut it down,
    even when I try to kill the vpc process.  The only way it'll come back up is if I restart the computer.  The network connection on the Win7 computer doesn't do that.
    Is there anything I can do to fix this ?
    Thanks,
    Melanie

    Hi,
    Does it become more stable now, actually, I'm afraid that this issue is not related with the drive letter or name. Since you're using bridge mode, the I would suggest you use NAT as a test, it is the default network configuration, which allows the VM
    to leverage the external TCP/IP network connected to the host. This is very useful if you regularly move the host computer between different network configurations. NAT is the preferred networking option when there is a shortage of IP addresses, a need to
    ensure the VM’s IP address is not targetable from an external network, or a need for connecting using WWAN.

  • Are there any problems with motion menus and buttons in DVDSP 2 on OS 10.4?

    I have not used DVD Studio Pro 2 since upgrading to Tiger but it appears to no longer be showing moving motion on menus and buttons.
    Are there any problems that I should be aware of when using DVDSP2 on OS 10.4?
    I have not upgrade to a newer version only because I do not have any HD software to create DVDs.
    Thanks

  • Photoshop Premiere 9 vs 13? Are there any problems with CPU usage and crashing?

    I stopped using Premiere, because they the computer would freeze and/or the program. I was curious if there was any issue with people currently using Version 13?  I think I loaded it on this computer along with Photoshop Elements 9.  After a while I just kept Photoshop Elements.
    System Specs:
    Windows 7 premium home edition
    Processor Intel R Core TM i5-2410M CPU @ 2.30 GHz 2.30 GHz
    Installed Memory 6.00GB   826 GB free
    64 Bit Operating system

    stephanies
    If 64 bit, while 9 will be a 32 bit application with the limitations of a 32 bit application on 64 bit system, 13 will be a 64 bit application which translates into more computer resources available to 13.
    Elements Organizer 9 will not integrate with Elements Organizer 13 although you can convert the 9 catalog in Elements Organizer 13. And there is a marked difference in the workspace between the two versions. Principles tend to stay the same, but features can be moved, changed, or discontinued.
    I would have expected Premiere Elements 9/9.0.1 to have worked in your computer environment. Since it did not, I would strongly suggest that you look at the free 30 days tryout of Premiere Elements 13/13.1 in your computer environment to assure the compatibility of it with your computer environment and project goals.
    Lots of causes for program crashes (any version).
    a. Conflicts with antivirus program.
    b. Problem with video card graphics card
    c. Use of a pen and table device instead of mouse
    d. Problematic source media and format conflicts
    e. Not running program as Administrator
    f. Poor installation
    g. Failure to install QuickTime along with Premiere Elements on the computer
    h. Not meeting System Requirements in some way.
    i. Other

    Please review and consider. Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

  • Is there a problem with new Firefox and Gmail?

    I cannot get Gmail to work consistently with new Firefox. sometimes it loads, sometimes it lets me enter my password details and then crashes; sometimes I can view my inboxes up until I select a message and then it crashes... I've submitted several crash reports already but not heard anything back as yet.

    Thanks for replying. Only trouble is that the machines I'm having problems with already run the most up to date versions. In fact, by pure fluke, my wife's laptop which has automatic updates switched off is running FF 8.0.1 and this is the only way I can consistently access Gmail without crashing.
    It runs XP if this information is useful.

  • Slim, a problem with virtual consoles and a question about reboot

    hi, just installed slim but now when I switch to the virtual consoles my session on X starts firing keyboard events on the consoles I have there, how can I fix that?
    I'm using xmonad, my terminal is sakura and I'm starting slim from /etc/inittab and xmonad from ~/.xinitrc
    also, it seems slim uses special usernames to halt and reboot however those ask me for the root password, is there a way to avoid that?
    thanks all.

    this http://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func= … up_id=2663 might be related.  out of curiosity, why are you starting slim from /etc/inittab and not as a daemon in /etc/rc.conf?
    Samus_ wrote:also, it seems slim uses special usernames to halt and reboot however those ask me for the root password, is there a way to avoid that?
    the flippant answer is, "yes, fix slim."  but so as not to be a jerk, 'man slim' turns up this:
    The 'halt' and 'reboot' commands need the root password, this may change in future releases.
    so i was about to say, "no."  then i decided to hit google with 'slim "special usernames" password'.   unfortunately, your post here is the fourth result, so no love there.
    *but* there's this:
    http://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func= … up_id=2663
    and this:
    http://developer.berlios.de/patch/?func … up_id=2663
    and the abs.
    so if you really want it, read the wiki page on the abs, add the patch to the pkgbuild, makepkg, and pacman -U.  if you don't want pacman to replace your patched version when there's an update, add slim to the IgnorePkg line in /etc/pacman.conf.  you'll have to re-makepkg and re-pacman -U whenever there's an update, but it ain't that hard.
    if it works, i might like a copy of yr pkgbuild.  hth!

  • Are there compatibility problems with PS CC and Windows 8?

    Brand new computer - just installed PS CC and Bridge - opened a project with many layers - highlighted one layer - worked on it - went to work on another layer, and the first one remained highlighted??  Now there are two layers highlighted - waited a moment, clicked on a totally new layer, and all the layers in between the first one and the new one highlighted - and no, I wasn't holding down any keys!  Then, I wanted to test another project with layers, and clicked on the 'Bridge' icon in the bottom tray of PS and it wouldn't open - I had to go to 'Browse in Bridge' for Bridge to open??  Is there something I need to do to get PS to work on my new computer?

    thank you for answering....yes...I just verified that I have 2014.2.2....
    further problems:  in camera Raw...if I process one photo in a series of the same content, and then highlight 2 or three other photos to receive the same processing, I cannot then 'un highlight' those photos??  They remain highlighted and I cannot move on to another photo... 
    This is all very strange - I have been a PS user since 2000 - updating every time a new version came out - then I joined PS CC...so I'm not a stranger to PS...something is wrong...

  • When Firefox is not minimised, there are problems with jamming sounds and FPS drops.

    Hello, I have some issues, when Firefox is not minimised. When I watch movie on my BS Player or playing World of Tanks and I have not minimised Firefox (there is a window, no matter it is maximised or just window), there are visible FPS drops, but when I minimise the Firefox window, it works just fine. Also when I connect my laptop to my sound amplifier with 2.1 speakers, I can hear a jamming, hamming and whirling, also works fine, when Firefox is minimised. Is there any way to remove this? Its quite annoying. I tried to disable all addons etc., nothing worked. Thanks.

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

  • Is there a problem with USB speakers and Final Cut Express HD?

    I have audio only through my internal speaker for Final Cut - however all other sounds play through my USB Harman Kardon speakers fine.
    I have tried sending the audio out to my M-Audio head too - and that has been fruitless.
    I am really frustrated - I reinstalled the OS. And ran it with only Final Cut and the OS and still have the same issues. Even if I drag an MP3 into Final Cut it plays through the internal speaker. I also notice that the audio really lags behind the video when it plays through the internal speaker - if that means anything. I have made sure that the Canvas Setting is correct.
    Tech support for the most part has been nice, but they are unable to help me.
    Please help!!!! And thanks in advance.

    Sorry, no actual experience with USB Audio devices.
