Kext and USB problems after permissions change

Hi,
I'd really appreciate any help on the following:
I recently made the mistake of manually changing the permissions on my Macintosh HD, setting myself as 'owner'. I could even boot into the OS so I ran "repair permissions" while booting from the OS installation CD.
After that I can boot up and log in, but I get a few error messages saying "system extension cannot be used" for a few .kext files (all seeming to relate to printers) as well as "insecure startup item disabled" for HP IO and HP Trap Monitor (also printer related). Needless to say I cant print, but more worrying is the fact that Itunes no longer picks up my iphone or ipad.
I have run the "repair permissions" twice again since. Every time it lists a very very long list of corrections, but ends saying the repair was succesful. I have also cleared the system cash using Yasu.
Can someone please advise me on what to do. The current permissions on my HD as follows:
system : read&write
me: read&write (and owner)
admin: read&write
everyone: read only
Thank you.

Do what Linc says: shut down your Mac, and don't turn it back on until you have an external drive connected. Hold down the Option key while booting up. Insert your Snow Leopard install DVD. Boot up from the DVD. Launch Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Use the Restore button to copy your internal drive to your external drive.
Once that is done, do an Erase & Install of Snow Leopard. When done, you can copy over the files/apps you need from the external drive.
I imagine you learned your lesson from this - ALWAYS HAVE A BACKUP!

790GX G65 Firewire and USB problem

I've m-audio firewire 410 sound card and cubase5 (has a usb dongle to work)
before this mainboard I was using K9A2 platinium V2 and Amd 9950 cpu everything was working perfectly
now I've upgraded my board (as you see) and bought a AMD 955
now when I install the sound card driver it's making somekind of digital distortion and also the sound is moving to faster or slower (all the time) so I'M hearing funny voices
The Cubase5 Usb dongle is having some connection problem. It force me to change the usb port everytime I start cubase
I've updated my bios but guess what.... They're still with me.
Please some help
I'm using Vista home premium 32, I've tried it on Xp and windows 7 64 RC7100 the resoult is always the same

Are the energy settings properly configured for USB and the CPU?
Could be Cubase doesn't like Cool & Quite?
Can Cubase work with quad-core?
Can the powersupply handle everything?
What is in your system, we don't know much: >>Posting Guide<<
Read the guide this time.
My system is
MSI 790GX G65 , AMD 955 BE, Corsair 1600 MHZ 4 GB (TW3X4G1600C9D) , 6 HDD (one is IDE), ZOTAX 9800 GTX+, 750 watt PSU(corsair TX750W)
I've some pci card for my music buss. but i didn't install them yet. Not before everything works fine
Cubase works fine with quad core , my ex-system was a quad core.
the problem with cubase comes this way. I turn on the pc (dongle is on all the time) start cubase and get the message "Connection problem with dongle change the usb port) after I change it everthing works fine. infact I'm not making cubase problem a big deal. my real problem is firewire.
About the energy settings, I didn't change anything on mainboard, why do I need to change the power settings for usb? aren't they standart?

How do I get my web pages back to original size? My fonts are all too large and keep reverting after I change them back!

That has not worked. I do it and still it reverts. Isn't there a way to tell Firefox to just go back to default settings?

Why is my iphone 5 having network and battery problems after the ios 6.1.2?

why is my iphone 5 having network and battery problems after the ios 6.1.2?

I also forgot to mention that when it did have power, it wouldn't let me shut it off to try and conserve the battery life. Right when it powered down it would power right back up.

No Battery Charge and Other Problems After OS3 Install - Solution?

This relates ONLY to iPhone Users using the "PUSH" Function for Email or Other Apps!
PROBLEM: It seems as though Apple is at least aware of the problem(s), i.e. once Exchange Email or another App using PUSH is configured, there is an OS3 bug that seems to be hardware independent (impacting ALL 1G, 2G and GS iPhones, but not consistently).
SYMPTOMS: Include some or all of the following . . . rapid discharge (less than two hours from a fully charged phone, failure to charge (by AC adapter or USB to computer), failure to charge completely, perpetual dead battery icon, inability to boot, inability to automatically sleep, quite warm on upper back side, slow email, indication of a full or partially full charge dropping to no charge or dead when removed from charging source.
CAUSE: OS3 Bug prevents consistent charging, draining the battery even when plugged in to a computer via the USB or into an A/C adapter (although I've been able to intermittently charge on an A/C adapter). In push mode, the Exchange email client on the iPhone continually queries the Exchange Server, cycling the iPhone CPU and continually draining the battery at a high rate (can
WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY APPLE:
1) Defective Hardware (though I'm on my third 3G in a week, so I don't think hardware is the problem . . . Apple will consider replacement with a new 3G if my third 3G has the same problem)
2) Corrupted App in iTunes - so I manually reloaded each app directly over wi-fi, one app at a time, this worked until I configured Exchange Email, at which time symptoms immediately appeared . . . so corrupted app unlikely.
3) Initial data transfer after email configuration . . . but symptoms continued long after this.
4) Wi-Fi - but turning wi-fi on or off had little effect, beyond normal.
5) Restore to New Phone - this works fine UNTIL Exchange Email is configured and activated. Thus, the time consuming practice of reload all apps, photos, music, etc. will be for naught, once exchange email is turned on with "push"
SOLUTION: Turning off "push" on your exchange email account
1) Go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars - Fetch New Data
2) Set Fetch Setting to 15 minutes to approximate the much more frequent "push" uploads and downloads. NOTE: Turning off \"push\" at this level will NOT turn off push on your exchange email account and the problem will not be resolved
3) Scroll down and select - Advanced -
4) Identify and select your Exchange Server account
5) Select - Fetch -
6) Leave settings
Phone should cool down in a few minutes and work normally. The problem can be replicated and resolved repeatedly merely by toggling "push" on and off in your exchange email configuration.
I was told that this is likely to be the "fix" until a patch is issued. No time frame was given for an actual fix that allows Exchange users to use push technology. Disappointing, since broader use of "push" technology beyond exchange was one of the big benefits of OS 3.0.
NOTE: THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR ON ALL iPHONES WITH OS3 USING THE EXCHANGE CLIENT. I have second 3G phone, identically configured (including push to exchange email) that has no symptoms at all. Go figure.

Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.

Stuck on Itunes and Usb Logo after Restoring?

So i updated my iPhone from 6.1.3 to 6.1.6 and did not back it up. After the update, i restore it (Deleting all the files and datas).
And then after the restore, the iPhone is rebooting, then it is again in the Itunes and Usb logo asking me to restore it over again.
I have restore it 2 times, and it is annoying! What to do now? How can i bypass this after restoring the Phone?

Thanks for reply, but the problem still not solved. On iTunes > Devices (iPhone), the message "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported"
What the meaning of *only compatible SIM cards*? How to buy or get that card?

Problems after Mainboard changed

I experience a problem after i have changed my mainboard into a MSI K7T Delta-L with a Athlon 2400+ XP. The Performance is as it is used to be, and when i do not scroll all is smooth, but when i scroll the screen it stars to jerk and "blur" although the FPS are high. Does anyone know, what the ´cause for this is?

Look at the other posts of the people that have answered you, and put your specs in yout sig. If we see what your hardware specs are, it will help you in getting better, more useful answers.
And yes, your pc might boot up fine, but once you put a load on your system (running programs) your pc requires more power. Did you upgrade to a new graphics card when you rebuilt your system?

USB problems after Windows 8.1 update

Since I updated to windows 8.1 my USB ports have problems. The issues occur when I am trying to use a USB to serial cable. It will work for a short period of time and then stop. The error I get says connected device quit responding. Then it will start working again. Sometimes the system will crash and the error is that the driver unloaded before a que'd request was finished. When this happens, it takes about 5 minutes for the computer to come back up.
I had no such issues before the upgrade. Cisco anyconnect, VPN software no longer works either and I don't have the software myself as it was emotely downloaded by my company tech support, but any suggestion for fixing it would be appreciated as well.

The following document..
Release Notes for Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, Release 3.1
..contains this statement.
Note: When upgrading to Windows 8.1, uninstall AnyConnect, and reinstall it after your Windows upgrade is complete.
For help with this situation, post in the Cisco forums.

Email problem after SIM change

I tried to change provider from O2 to Vodafone. Got the new SIM, put it in the BB, set up a test email account to check it worked and started to try to change network. I was told the number couldn't be ported until Wednesday. The phone has to be switched off and in the UK on that day - well, I'm travelling overseas this week so I cancelled that idea and put the O2 SIM back in the phone.
I had three email addresses on my BB. I validated two of them without a problem. The third one will not validate. I called O2 and after an hour with various people in customer "service" was told they didn't have a Blackberry team and couldn't help me (Eventually the lady transferred me to the International Operator, nice touch O2).
I have deleted the email account but cannot add it back. I have done the battery pull, I have restored and backed up the device, reloaded the software. I visited my local O2 store and the staff there, although pleasant, couldn't help either. They say it is a Blackberry problem, not an O2 problem. Now I am stuck. Can somebody please help me figure out how to validate an email address which was working on my BB this morning before I changed SIM cards?
Thank you.

Hello,
Wow...O2 really let you down there...you see, even if they are unable to help, they have the ability (indeed, responsibility!) to escalate cases up to RIM for enhanced support. They didn't do that for you...a real pity, especially since you pay them for 100% of your services and 100% of your formal support...right now, they seem to be delivering neither to you.
There are a couple of other methods to try:
If they have one, from the PC/browser, the O2 BIS website:
Sorry, I don't have a URL...there used to be a good listing, but it seems to not be functional ATM.
On your BB Browser, this site:
www.blackberry.com/integrate
See if either of those can get this going for you.
Be careful, on the BB keyboard, with entry of numbers and/or special characters...you're probably doing it right, but it is important to remember to press ALT or SYM before each and every character that is not the "normal" keyboard character. For instance, some folks press ALT just once and then think they are typing a string of number when actually they get just the first numeric with the rest being the alfa letters.
Good luck!

Timeouts and connection problems after 5.1(2) upgrade

AIM/chat and some other programs are having timeout/connection problems after upgrade to 5.1(2). I am using S241 also. The connection problems stopped when the IPS was set to bypass. Rebuilt IPS and left sigs at default settings and problem is still happening. I am not seeing any of the IPs that are having the problem in the Event Viewer or on the Events in the IDM.
Any known issues with the 5.1(2) that would cause this type of problem?

I don't know specifically, but I did notice that 5.1(3) was released today.

Firefox and Adobe problems after Flash update last night

OK, this is a non-Apple question, but I haven't found any solution yet.
Everyone knows that to run the "Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 10.1.3" in Firefox, you had to open in 32-bit mode. I did and that plug-in, plus the "Adobe Acrobat Create PDF 1.2" extension worked just fine running Firefox 12. Tonight I got notification that I needed to update Adobe Flash Player. I did (quitting and restarting Firefox after the installation).
THEN up popped a warning - Firefox suggesting that I disable the NPAPI plug-in and finding out here that Firefox was disabling the plug-in. So I disabled it, restarted, etc. Then I found that the Create PDF plug-in would crash if I tried to save a web page as PDF within Firefox.
Is there any way to go BACK to the older Flash plug-in? That seems to be at the root of my problem. I can use PDF Browser plug-in in Firefox to display PDF files but what I really need is the Create PDF extension back (it's strangely absent from Safari - at least I've not been able to find it).
Any help out there?
Thanks,
Clinton

Create PDF or save as PDF?
Pete
Pete,
I can always use the PDF creator "Save as Adobe PDF" that is available from the Print menu and added by Acrobat Pro X, but it does not always save the hyperlinks correctly, etc., where the Adobe Create PDF does a fantastic job... I'd just like to have it back. It does not show up in the Safari extensions/add-ons for some reason.
Thanks for getting back so quickly!
Clinton
Then you may well have to go to the Mozilla Forums on this one. As I say, I steer clear of Firefox because of all it's bulky extentions.
Good Luck
Pete

Z1 bluetooth and network problem after updating to 1.136

Hi,
Last week I updated my phone via PC companion when it notified me a new system update was available. The update took me from Android 4.2.2 to 4.3, and the biuld number is now 14.2.A.1.136.
I use my phone with a SmartWatch 2 all the time, and a SBH20 bluetooth headset in my car. Before the update everything worked fine, but now I have issues with bluetooth connectivity. My SmartWatch 2 randomly disconnects and reconnects to the phone, and so does the headset. In the watch, specifically the Whatsapp notification app by LIS software stopped getting notifications most of the time, although every once in a while it does. The SBH20 also randomly disconnects and sometimes it takes minutes to reconnect by itself. I already unpaired and paired again both devices, even reset the SmartWatch, and the problem persists.
But the most recurrent issue is that the phone repeatedly notifies me to "Sign in to network"... and has problems connecting to the 4G and even to wi-fi networks, meaning that sometimes I don't get any data at all for who knows how long, because it happens randomly.
One thing that seems to me is that every time i lose my bluetooth connections it's because (or at the same time) of whatever happens that triggers the "Sign in to network" notification.
I was really happy of having purchased the whole package of phone, watch and headset, please help me with this.

This is the responses I go from Sony "Customer DON'T Care....." regarding bluetooth issues -
"We can advise Sony Xperia do not test our products with other manufacturer’s devices and so we can not confirm the two devices are compatible.
As the handset has been updated this does indicate it is running different software which means the Bluetooth will have also been updated. Sadly, as Sony Xperia does not test our products with third party Bluetooth devices we will not have been able to foresee the change with your specific device.
We could only suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the device for any further assistance as there is nothing further we could advise.
We do apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.
It is not that the software does not work it is the fact that we have updated the bluetooth drivers withing the update you have which no longer makes the bluetooth compatable with your car kit, if you ahve not contacted the car manufacturer already then I would suggest contacting them and seeing if there are any updates needed to the car kit."
Mmmmmm... so it seems that they DO NOT test any O/S upgrades against anything.....
It seems strange that both Samsung(S3 running 4.3) and HTC M* (running 4.4.2) both work perfectly with my car audio system and the "developers" at Sony cant... either that or they just do not care... The smart money is on the latter... My z1 is THE WORST PHONE THAT I HAVE EVER HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF OWNING....

LDAP problems after IP change

I changed my IP address for the LDAP server in accordance to the advice given here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1983263&#1983263
[using command:
sudo changeip /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 212.212.123.45 212.212.35.5 ldap.example.com ldap.example.com
However, LDAP still does not work. [when attempting to authenticate, I just get the shaking Login screen]. The logs do not indicate anything useful to diagnose this problem.
As well, iChat (on another server) can not authenticate users to the OD Server (assuming the problem is the same for LDAP and authentication problems).
Can someone help me out as to where I went wrong and how to correct it?

I want to thank the guys at this post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2404645&#2404645
Following these instructions (while a bit bumpy in my situation) fixed my LDAP. As such, I am marking this problem as solved... although, another problem crept up as a result... MD5 mail authentication now fails (Password works)... so, I will open a new thread in Mail section and mark this as answered.
