Issues during start-up after last system update

After last update (what a coincidence, isn't it? ) I've begun to notice some "failed" messages during start-up. Here's a part of mu /var/log/messages.log file

Never seen such things before. What's going on?

Well, the last kernel-headers installation broke the whole system for me :S Let's hope a chroot from Live-CD will do.

IWork (Pages) does not work after last system update!

since some days (after last system update) iWork programms are not starting any more!

any body an idea what i can do to fix it?

hi - i think you should not use 'xhost +' - it's not secure and you shouldn't need it....
in your .bashrc or .cshrc or whatever, you should have setenv DISPLAY .0 or the equivalent export...
then ssh -Y hostname should be all you need... no xhost, and not setting DISPLAY every time...
could you enter the following command from a terminal window and post back the results?
grep X11 /etc/ssh*_config

[SOLVED] Inkscape bug after last system update

After the last system update I started to have problems in Inkscape when I tried to adjust the color and alpha sliders to maximum values. They would only go up to 245. This means that a lot of basic colors are not achievable anymore, and the opacity cannot be set to maximum, which basically makes Inkscape unusable. After googling it for a while, I understood that there was a similar problem some time ago with Inkscape version 0.46-7 and GTK+ (here is a far better description of the bug, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467431), but this problem was assumably fixed in a later version (for the Red Hat package anyway). I am using at the moment Inkscape 0.46-10 and GTK2. Anyone with similar problems? Please help and thank you very much!

Anca
under the fill and stroke dialogue (ctrl-f), there is a small input box called RGBA which is just that, 1 byte for each channel. edit it at will. you will notice the sliders dont go past 245, but the value used by inkscape is the hex number there

Systemd-udev-settle.service suddenly active after last system update

Hi,
with my last pacman -Syu I noticed that my boot time went up from 4s to 8s.
Using systemd-analyze, I saw that systemd-udev-settle.service is the culprit.
I am not using lvm or similar, so AFAIK systemd-udev-settle.service should not be running on my system.
Does anybody know why this was activated by the last system update and if it is safe to just mask or disable the unit?
With best regards,
p90

I noticed that it is slowing down my boot also, I checked and for some reason the lvm2 package was installed which looks like it was partially causing it. It has a couple messages at boot and in dmesg. I removed lvm2 and by boot time is a little better, and masking systemd-udev-settle brings my boot back to where it should be.

Large Backup After Last System Update

There have been a lot of problems after 10.6.5 update, and this is another one. TM backup went from 120 GB to 240 GB after the system upgrade. I had to stop it manually, so I don't know if it would have continued in an infinite look until the disk was full as has happened to me before.
Does anybody know the cause of TM filling the backup disk?
When I enter TM there are only a couple of increments available.
I suppose I need to delete the whole archive and start again.
Does anybody know a way I can save my incremental backups?

A quick look at some of your recent posts indicates you may have done a full restore. That results in a full backup. See #D3 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
If not, see #D4 there.

Most likely, it deleted many old backups to make room for the new one.
I suppose I need to delete the whole archive and start again.
You can, of course, but if it had started backing-up, it had made enough space.
Does anybody know a way I can save my incremental backups?
The ones already deleted are gone for good.
The remaining ones probably won't be deleted when you do the next backup, but a few might. If not, they'll likely be deleted before long.
You may want to consider getting a larger backup drive, at least 3 times the size of the data on your system.

Norton Anti Virus Live Update stopped working after last system update

Hello,
I am using Anti- Virus version 11 for MAC. It has worked fine for years. Now Live Update will not run.
I have tried reloading and nothing helps. Is anyone experiencing this problem.
Alice

FYI:
Norton Anti-virus software is the worst app to install on a Mac. It will slow down the drive and cause all sorts of system issues. Delete Norton and get ClamXav available here, and it's free:
http://www.clamxav.com/
There are no known Mac virus. If you really think anti-virus software is necessary, then use Clamxav. It can detect a trojan horse and malware both.
Here's a thread that might help you make your mind up: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8330584&#8330584

"Optimizing your Mac", continuing after last system update

Have now 10.9.4
The message has been there for a week, perhaps.Three external hard disks are busy all the time, 5 TB totally.
I did not dare to reboot, I waited to see what happened.
(Other people had the same problem after installing Maverick, last year. I searched)
I am unsure if the lots of files takes this much time to move or what it does.
Any advice?
/groundliner

I do not want to do like that.
I always do disk check after power failures. I'd like to know why I maybe not should just shut it down normally?
Also one person I read about here did not get it stopped by rebooting.
(Apple got me to pull out the power cord the other day, to get my WiFi working ok, that worked well)
I waited so long, because the disks hold very many files...
But thanks!

Flash CC doesn't start up after last update

Flash CC doesn't start up after last update. It said "Training en zelfstudie" (Training and self-stufy in Dutch) for the update.
Everything was working fine before the update, now if I try to start-up Flash solo,
it says: "Flash werkt niet meer" (Flash has stopped working), and quits.
As you can probably tell from the message, I'm on Windows 7.
Now here is interesting info: if I double click a previous movie, then Flash starts up fine and loads the previous movie.
However when I close it and the screen that should appear is the "new movie" dialog, flash hangs again.
So obviously something went wrong installing the new update, or the update doesn't work properly.
I'm now working with my pre-cc flash5.5 version, which I re-installed to avoid crashing flash every time I close a file.
My questions:
1- Where do I log this problem? (Or am I in the right place?)
2- Can I re-install the previous version, which worked fine? (I can live without tutorials etc.)
3- Can I try to re-install this version if the above is not possible and how do I go about doing that?

What fixed the problem for me was just reinstalling Flash CC. I thought I'd give it a try, because I couldn't find a message of anyone experiencing the same problem.
So I used the control panel to uninstall Flash, then I tried reinstalling.
Creative Cloud kept saying Flash is up to date, so you can't reinstall. If you click on the gear and choose Exit and then restart Creative Cloud it will take a few seconds, but the it will see the situation as it is and you can reinstall Flash.
After the reinstall the issue was gone.
Thanks for the other solutions, I think this is a handy resource for rolling back Flash if I ever do need it
and gives me more confidence in the creative cloud product.
Maybe Adobe will pick it up and make it easier for us 'normal' creative-cloud users to
pick which version we want. Like you can do in CVS systems.

Cannot start mac mini coreduo after last security update

Hi,
after last security update mac mini cannot see anymore the new 7200 rpm hddisk which worked like a charm since that…
When try to boot now I see only a question mark folder…
I can fix permissions via dvd, I can see the mac mini disk if i connet via firewire to another mac,
but cannot boot from it…
tried a kind of tech tool test: it seems that I've got a huge amount of corrupted .plist files…
How could that happen?
does it mean that it's not an hardware issue?
should I reinstall snow?
help me please

tmma.a wrote:
I thought that erasing was formatting as well;
no, it's not. there is probably something wrong with the partition map of the drive which is why your mac firmware does not recognize it as a boot drive when you restart. simply erasing the drive won't fix it. reformatting might.
anyway I'm reinstalling now, if doesn't work will try reformatting too…

IE 11 links open to Blank page after last Window update

IE 11 links open to Blank page after last Window update, I tried every trouble shooting and suggestions I could find in all forums but to no avail.
Operating system Win 8.
will try any suggestions and report back.

Hi,
Not sure whether you have tried these methods, if yes, keep trying the others.
1.Run IE with no add-ons firstly.
Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Internet Explorer (with no add-ons).
If works, please follow the steps to narrow down which add-on cause the issue.
Start IE>Press Alt to show the menu bar>On the Tools menu, click manage add-ons>under show, click All add-ons>disable half add-ons one time for quick narrow down>restart IE.
2.Try resetting IE.
Start IE>Press Alt to show the menu bar>On the Tools menu, click Internet options>Advance>Reset>restart IE.
3. This is caused due to some registry problems occurred. To resolve this issue, follow the below steps:
Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
Type regsvr32 actxprxy.dll in the Open box, and then click OK.
If the command was successfully executed, you will receive the message ‘DllRegisterServer in actxprxy.dll succeeded’ window.
Restart the Internet Explorer
4.if still not work, run system restore.
Start>type system restore in the search box>click system restore>follow the steps in the wizard to choose a restore point.

X isn't working anymore since the last system update.

Hi there,
I'm using Arch for a couple of months and didn't need a forums login until now. But currently I've broken somehow my system and can't get it working anymore. So I need some help of you.
The Problem:
Arch Linux is running on my computer at work as a virtual machine inside VMWare Player 6.0.2-1744117. Host ist Win 8.1. After the system-update xorg didn't start anymore. Neither with kdm nor with plain X. When I start the X-Server (X as user or systemctl start kdm), the cursor of the tty console appears in the upper left corner, but isn't blinking. That's all. Only a black screen. It seems, X itself isn't starting. There's no process in ps and no graphics mode switch. In journalctl there's no (error) message.
What I've done:
Last week I made a system update, xorg-server was a part of it:
yaourt -Qi xorg-server
Name : xorg-server
Version : 1.15.1-1
Description : Xorg X server
Installed on : Do 12 Jun 2014 11:16:46 CEST

I've tried a downgrade to xorg-server 1.5.0.5, but it didn't help.
I would prefer the vmware graphics driver, but temporary the vesa driver would do the job too. I can access the system via ssh from outside. Inside the VMWare after starting X I can't switch to the tty consoles anymore.
Any ideas?
Thanks so far.

I upgraded everything today including open-vm-tools-dkms and it still does not work.
MickeyKnox has the same problem: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=182971
This is his codebin, same errors I have: http://codebin.org/view/53bcafc9
Could this be related to this report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40781?
How could I install the version from the git?
[EDIT] I also tried downgrading mesa and mesa-libgl to Version 10.1.4-1 to no avail. (see bug report FS#40781 above)
[EDIT2] At least I can now use [ALT]+[F2] to log into the system without arch-chrooting from a live medium. So it hangs "less bad" ...
I also get the following error (as does MickeyKnox):

Time machine is non functional after last OS update

I am unable to back up my I mac. When I click on the TM button it brings up a prompt that says " You haven't selected a location for time machine backups". When i click "set up Time Machine" it brings up a new TM window that shows the TM is "off". When I click the option on the left that that says "select back up disc", it brings up a new window that has one option only "other Airport Time Capsule". If I click onto that it opens a new grey window with a globe on it and it says "no configured airport base stations have been found. Airport utility will continue searching". If I try to turn the TM to the on position it brings up the same window scenario described above. This worked fine since 2009 and with the last major OS update it went bad....
I was a pc guy before getting our macs and so this world is different, I have had NO problems with any of our macs since 2009, this is the first time and it started with the last OS update...our printer is not working either unless its hard wired to one of our 2 computers...again new issue since the last OS update. I have done a hard reboot on the Airport/TM and that didn't do anything. I wonder if it needs to be reloaded onto the IMAC, not really sure how to do that either.
Thanks for any help/consideration you could give. Peter

You need to do a full reset.. Yosemite wants to control and own everything.
1. Full factory reset.
Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
2. It will now show up in Airport Utility.
Redo the setup but do not accept apple recommended names.. use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
3. Wireless should have WPA2 Personal with pure alphanumeric password.
4. Your computer share name is well advised to be short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. (just remember your windows days.. apple is now using windows networking by default.. they began in Mavericks. when did you problems start.. oh yeah.. in mavericks.. hmm.. connected?? I think so!!)
5. Make sure in network preferences for whatever connection you use IPv6 is set to link-local only.
6. Manually mount the TC in finder if you still cannot connect in TM. Do this using top menu, Go, Connect to server.
Type in AFP://TCname.local (TCname is your new short name.. local is default domain).
Or AFP://TCIPaddress (eg 10.0.1.1 the IP you can find by the summary on the TC in airport utility).
Type in and save the password for disk access in your keychain.. this is important.
7. If it stops the day after you set it up.. welcome to Yosemite.. reboot the TC.. make sure it is mounted in Finder and try again.
8. Use a replacement backup utility.. eg Carbon Copy Cloner to a USB drive.. much more reliable.

Cannot access internet through itunes after last itunes update. Cannot get to itunes store or itunes help. Everything else works fine.

After last itunes update I cannot get to the internet through itunes. Cannot get to itunes store, itunes help, etc. Also, now when I sync everything syncs properly but I get message at end that tells me that my phone cannot be backed up on the laptop.

Something may be corrupt in your iTunes installation. The backup problem may or may not be related. The first step is reboot your system, disable your antivirus and firewall and try again. The next thing to try is completely removing iTunes and reinstalling: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925.
Also, if you used TinyUmbrella or Recboot as unauthorized apps to help with the update they corrupted your network settings on your computer. You will have to edit your hosts file and remove all references to Apple servers.
