Keyboard (USB) stopped responding ... and then it did. What's it mean?

I had 2 external HDs attached via firewire and USB connections and was copying something from one to the other. I've done this before with no issues.
When I went to use the keyboard to check the backup (command I - for get info) I got no response from the keyboard.
The backup completed successfully, but no response from the keyboard. I couldn't type commands, or write anything in a doc or in Google's search field.
I unplugged the 2 HDs. I unplugged my USB printer. The only thing I left connected was the keyboard and the USB receiver for the mouse.
I repaired permissions.
I put new batteries in the mouse (USB Logitech) just in case that was the problem.
Still no response.
I came to our MBP to type this question and let the iMac sit and think about it. I did nothing else to it while I panicked over here.
Mr H, with the magic touch, went to the iMac - opened a new text edit doc and started typing - no problem, opened Google - typed into search field - no problem. I couldn't get either of these to do anything.
I was afraid to shut down or restart since I wouldn't be able to log in (though I do have it currently set to login automatically, so I guess I would be logged in and I could shut down or restart)
Any ideas on what this is all about and what/if I need to do anything?
Repair permissions showed a lot of things out of place, but showed it repaired things successfully. I had recently updated firefox but did a repair after doing the update (manually) and had no problems.
Did my 2 HDs together cause a problem though it's never done so before?

Thanks, Rudegar, for the suggestion.
But as I said above, "Mr H, with the magic touch, went to the iMac - opened a new text edit doc and started typing - no problem, opened Google - typed into search field - no problem..." which is to say the problem has solved itself by just regrouping itself after all peripherals were detatched and HDs no longer involved? We'll see if it reproduces itself next time I do this HD-HD copy.
I don't know why it's fixed, but since all is well, the permissions are repaired, and I've put it to sleep and awakened it, and it's still running fine (indeed I'm typing on the iMac now), I am loathe to do anything to solve a problem that seems to no longer exist.
If things go awry I will first try a restart or perhaps just shut down from the Apple menu. As I said I was worried about doing this fearing I'd have to log in and not be able to do it - but the auto login setting works to my advantage here.
Anyone else have any ideas on what went wrong???
Thanks again,
Mrs H

Help! Keyboard stops responding and then works after reboot

My computer will start running really slowly and then the keyboard stops working, then after 30 seconds or so I lose the ability to click but the mouse still moves. Command-option-esc for force quit still works some of the time though but refreshing everything from there doesn't help. After I reboot everything goes back to normal. This has happened every other day or so for about a week. Help me please!

See if you get this behavior using another account.
See what happens when you safe boot.

For some reason or another I updated my firefox and now everytime I get on it it stops responding and then closes. I have uninstalled it and then re-installed it and it still does not work! This needs to be addressed!

I have just recently updated my Firefox and now when I try to get on firefox it just keeps trying to load and then says it has stopped responding. I have uninstalled it and then re-installed it, this didn't help. Now have to use Internet Explore cause firefox wont work!

Message on C8100: The process "usb" stopped unexpectedly with status 81. What should I do?

Our C8100 printer has worked well with our wireless setup for a few years. It is now not printing from any of our home computers (wireless is working fine on these Mac's). I've already turned off both computers and printer, waiting a few minutes and turned them back on.
Message on computer screen -- The process "usb" stopped unexpectedly with status 81. What does this mean?

Yes it is a photosmart C6380 all in one
You are lucky. That model gives you an option not offered on cheaper printers.
You could abandon the USB connection completely and use ethernet to print. That model has, in addition to USB, an ethernet (or "network") port and wireless connectivity. Wireless can be flaky but ethernet is an amazing way to print--faster and more stable that using USB. The port should should be just above or below the USB port.
If your computer is already connected to the internet via ethernet, you can get an inexpensive ethernet router to create enough ports. The router goes between your modem and the computer gear. One router port is usually marked "WAN" and is where you connect an ethernet cable going from the modem. The router will have several other ports marked "LAN" that those connect yo you computer equipment.
You are basically splitting one ethernet line into several. If you have only the iMac and the HP printer, each one would connect to its own LAN port and you can print without USB issues. Normally setting up a wired router takes no software and no tweaking on your part. You connect the wires and it's running.
Here's a start on learning about home networking. In teh picture, what's labeled "gateway" is the router.

My Macbook built-in keyboard has stopped responding, (even caps lock light does not come on). What can I do as cannot even login to computer?
There has been no spillage and it has not been dropped.

Do you have access to a USB wired Apple (or maybe even a PC) keyboard?
That may be used to help troubleshoot the internal keyboard and on startup
be able to access (or see if you can) the System, and attempt to see about
troubleshooting. See if it will start in SafeBoot, (shift key held down just after
startup tone, if it runs in safeboot, then login to see if you can read system
logs in Console) and another idea may be to attempt to start in Recovery &
then attempt to use OS X Utilities there to see if you can verify and then to
repair the hard disk drive, and do some checks on the hardware.

Microsoft Office 2004 (Word) unable to save files
I have been running Office 2004 on my Intel iMac with Snow Leopard for some time and all of a sudden I cannot save a document. Word just stopped responding and I have to force quit. I can open Word and create a new document but I cannot save it. I reinstalled Word but that didn’t help. Then went to the Internet and found at least one other Mac user having the same problem which it suggests is caused by a recent Mac Security Update:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2004-macword/word-2004-wil l-not-open-or-save-documents/b04eb870-9b0d-4f3b-bb47-b122301e36f6
So I check for a new Mac Security Update and sure enough there was one. I downloaded it and now Word seems to be working, as it should. I can both open and save files. The only problem remaining is that when I open Word I get the following error message “An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library”. I contacted Apple but they were unable to help.
How can I get rid of this error message?

Look, I realize you might have to get your machine working, so this is how you revert back.
Restore proceedure to pre-Security Update 2012-001 v 1.0 & v 1.1
#1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
#2 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk of your internal drive (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway) or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
#3 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001 v1.0 or v1.1
Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
#4 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason as they are missing the part they installed into OS X.
If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

My firefox stops responding and fades for about a half min almost every hour, OR MORE often

My firefox stops responding and fades for about a half min almost every hour, OR MORE often.
I am typing a message or information, the screen fades to about half bright. the curser freezes in place and no key responds.
The information bar at the top of the page says "firefox not responding" in about 30 seconds it restores and continues as tho nothing happens.

I might have discovered the solution without starting over with all your places and bookmarks.
Right after i installed 7.0.1 over a week ago,every 10-30 min When i would be watching videos online, it would freeze for 20-30 seconds. Firefox would say ( Not responding) both firefox and the plugin container process would be very large memory files. I tried to go back to Firefox 5.0. No avail it would still freeze.I tried to disable the plugin container . no good. I tried to adjust memory or cache or plugin settings in “about:config”.Nothing fixed it!
I finally discovered why my Firefox 7.01 was periodic hanging fix. It is something to do with some of your personal files. download this this add on and install it
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/
or you can Google "places maintenance Firefox"
After you install the add on, restart Firefox.go to "tools", then "add ons" and then click “extensions” tab ,then click' options" on the "places maintenance" entry. choose "ALL' or just "expire" and hit "execute", then wait until its done., restart Firefox. should be fine then and all my bookmarks, customizations ,settings, and history stays untouched!
After i did this my Firefox did not freeze once for over 3 days straight. Might not work for everyone. I already read that Mozilla is aware of the problem and are working on a fix it in the full version of 8( the 8 beta did not fix the problem for me) . But they said this is a good temporary fix at least,( might be permanent)
For me at least ,Firefox works fine in 7 now. perfect actually.And many people i saw on similar forums had similar problems.
Enjoy. Hope this helped

When I enter the website, Firefox stops responding and I have to end the process from the Task Manager. How do I solve this problem?

I am running Firefox 4.0 beta 7 on Windows XP Tablet Edition OS. When I enter this site using Firefox, the browser stops responding and I have to end the process using Task Manager. However, when I open it with other browsers such as IE8, I am able to view the site as per normal. This only happened when I updated my browser to Beta 7 and I did not have such problems in the previous betas.

There is [[Flash]] content on that page.
Do you have a problem with Flash on other websites?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

"Display ATI Radeon Family driver stopped responding and has recovered"

For the past few days my laptop Model HP G61-409CA has been displaying broken black and white horizontal lines and black, white, and coloured random squares on my screen. When it freezes the screen and mouse stops moving and the screen goes blank for about 5 seconds then comes back with the error (Display ATI Radeon Family driver stopped responding and has recovered) appears with a yellow triangle. Unfortunetly when i click on the triangle nothing opens up.
Ive tried to download Catalyst Control Centre because when I researched many people spoke about not being able to find their control centre and that it had something to do with the displaying error on the screen. I cant seem to find the folder or the program on my computer, but when i tried to install something similar from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/mobile?os=Windows%207%20-%2064#amd-catalyst-packages less than half way through the computer displayed a Blue screen and had to shut down. Also when i recovered my laptop the problem did not go away.
My product number : WA964UA#ABC
OS: Windows 7 for x64 based systems
Please let me know what needs to be done ive tried updating all my drivers aswell!

Hi Quesspee,
Thank you for your query, I am happy to assist you!
I grasp that a few days ago your display started showing broken black and white horizontal lines and black, white, and coloured random squares on your screen . When it freezes the screen and mouse stops moving and the screen goes blank for about 5 seconds then comes back with the error (Display ATI Radeon Family driver stopped responding and has recovered) appears with a yellow triangle. When you clicked on the triangle, nothing happened.
You tried installing the Catalyst Control Center and approximately 1/2 through, you received a blue screen and your system shut down.
You tried doing a recovery but the issue remained.
I suggest you test for hardware failures. Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7)
If this did not help to locate the issue, I suggest contacting HP support for further assistance. They have the ability to remotely log onto your system, to help locate and resolve issues.

Satellite A500-1GH - display driver stopped responding and has successfully

My laptop is the A500-1GH and I bought it 2 days ago...
My problem is that for the fourth time the monitor went black and then recovered and I'm getting the message "display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered". My graphics card is the Nvidia GeForce 330.
I would appreciate it if someone knows what should I do to fix this
Thank you in advance

Hi Guys,
I have experienced _*both*_ problems with my A500/O2J with the NVIDIA GeForce GT 330m graphics card. Only purchased it Monday 15th February. Everything came factory installed except Office Professional 2007.
Set it up on Tuesday and it happened within 2 hours of set up, then again on the Wednesday. On the first 2 occurrances the display went black and recovered after a few seconds with a message along the lines of "graphic card driver has stopped responding and has successfully restored" then today (Friday 19/2) the screen went black and didn't come back on. I thought it had gone in to sleep mode but pressing the power button did nothing. After about 20 minutes I got the Blue Screen saying the system was shutting down to prevent unecessary damage and it then proceeded to restart.
I'm computer illiterate when it comes to this technical stuff and rang the place of purchase who told me to ring Toshiba (133 070). Of course being in the West they are closed so I will have to wait until Monday (1st day back at Uni).
Not off to a good start....so i hope this problem can be rectifed quickly and without too much fuss.
My computer specs are as follows;
A500/O2J
Intel Core i5 processor
Windows 7 Home premium (32 bit)
4GB memory
500Gb Sata storage
NVidia GeForce GT 330M graphics
Karmon/Kardon speakers
Everything came factory pre-installed except printer and Office Professional 2007 but both were installed after the problem occured the first time.

Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered

Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered
I was getting this error from my new computer i had for 6 weeks. This is the second one laptop I bought that had that error from BEST BUY in FRESNO CALIFORNIA. After an amazing amount of research and looking into my machine they folks at the CLOVIS department decided it was hardware and not software. ...Now..
I went to the store in FRESNO and the nice gyt behind the counter could not help me because the policy on returns was 2 weeks. I stated it was hardware and not software. I asked for the manager and got this Chinese looking child about 18 years old come to me and said abruptly not our problem, took his bag, flung it over his shoulder and went home. I stood there wondering what am I going to do with this dead machine.
FRESNO GEEK SQUAD couldnt figure out what was wrong with it, they couldnt even hook it up to the internet so I could show them. Very annoyed I called my other branch in CLOVIS, there I was treated very nicely, they looked at it for about 2 hours trying to figure out what is wrong. they came to the conclusion that it was probably VISTA. They gave me credit against another machine.
I actually put another 500 bucks to get a better an another model machine.
I have acually spent well over 5000 dollars with Best buy in Fresno and I will not be going back for anything.
If anyone is getting that error then take it back in andd get a new machine.

So, did you send an error report and check the solutions center at the bottom of the taskbar for a sololution?
It says you need to update your driver from NVIDIA directly to overcome this issue.

Windows Server 2012 - Hyper-V - iSCSI SAN - All Hyper-V Guests stops responding and extensive disk read/write

We have a problem with one of our deployments of Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V with a 2 node cluster connected to a iSCSI SAN.
Our setup:
Hosts - Both run Windows Server 2012 Standard and are clustered.
HP ProLiant G7, 24 GB RAM, 2 teamed NIC dedicated to Virtual Machines and Management, 2 teamed NIC dedicated to iSCSI storage. - This is the primary host and normaly all VMs run on this host.
HP ProLiant G5, 20 GB RAM, 1 NIC dedicated to Virtual Machines and Management, 2 teamed NIC dedicated to iSCSI storage. - This is the secondary host that and is intended to be used in case of failure of the primary host.
We have no antivirus on the hosts and the scheduled ShadowCopy (previous version of files) is switched of.
iSCSI SAN:
QNAP NAS TS-869 Pro, 8 INTEL SSDSA2CW160G3 160 GB i a RAID 5 with a Host Spare. 2 Teamed NIC.
Switch:
DLINK DGS-1210-16 - Both the network cards of the Hosts that are dedicated to the Storage and the Storage itself are connected to the same switch and nothing else is connected to this switch.
Virtual Machines:
3 Windows Server 2012 Standard - 1 DC, 1 FileServer, 1 Application Server.
1 Windows Server 2008 Standard Exchange Server.
All VMs are using dynamic disks (as recommended by Microsoft).
Updates
We have applied the most resent updates to the Hosts, WMs and iSCSI SAN about 3 weeks ago with no change in our problem and we continually update the setup.
Normal operation
Normally this setup works just fine and we see no real difference in speed in startup, file copy and processing speed in LoB applications of this setup compared to a single host with 2 10000 RPM Disks. Normal network speed is 10-200 Mbit, but occasionally
we see speeds up to 400 Mbit/s of combined read/write for instance during file repair
Our Problem
Our problem is that for some reason all of the VMs stops responding or responds very slowly and you can for instance not send CTRL-ALT-DEL to a VM in the Hyper-V console, or for instance start task manager when already logged in.
Symptoms (i.e. this happens, or does not happen, at the same time)
I we look at resource monitor on the host then we see that there is often an extensive read from a VHDX of one of the VMs (40-60 Mbyte/s) and a combined write speed to many files in \HarddiskVolume5\System Volume Information\{<someguid and no file extension>}.
See iamge below.
The combined network speed to the iSCSI SAN is about 500-600 Mbit/s.
When this happens it is usually during and after a VSS ShadowCopy backup, but has also happens during hours where no backup should be running (i.e. during daytime when the backup has finished hours ago according to the log files). There is however
not that extensive writes to the backup file that is created on an external hard drive and this does not seem to happen during all backups (we have manually checked a few times, but it is hard to say since this error does not seem leave any traces in event
viewer).
We cannot find any indication that the VMs themself detect any problem and we see no increase of errors (for example storage related errors) in the eventlog inside the VMs.
The QNAP uses about 50% processing Power on all cores.
We see no dropped packets on the switch.
(I have split the image to save horizontal space).
Unable to recreate the problem / find definitive trigger
We have not succeeded in recreating the problem manually by, for instance, running chkdsk or defrag in VM and Hosts, copy and remove large files to VMs, running CPU and Disk intensive operations inside a VM (for instance scan and repair a database file).
Questions
Why does all VMs stop responding and why is there such intensive Read/Writes to the iSCSI SAN?
Could it be anything in our setup that cannot handle all the read/write requests? For instance the iSCSI SAN, the hosts, etc?
What can we do about this? Should we use MultiPath IO instead of NIC teaming to the SAN, limit bandwith to the SAN, etc?

Hi,
> All VMs are using dynamic disks (as recommended by Microsoft).
If this is a testing environment, it’s okay, but if this a production environment, it’s not recommended. Fixed VHDs are recommended for production instead of dynamically expanding or differencing VHDs.
Hyper-V: Dynamic virtual hard disks are not recommended for virtual machines that run server workloads in a production environment
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee941151(v=WS.10).aspx
> This is the primary host and normaly all VMs run on this host.
According to your posting, we know that you have Cluster Shared Volumes in the Hyper-V cluster, but why not distribute your VMs into two Hyper-V hosts.
Use Cluster Shared Volumes in a Windows Server 2012 Failover Cluster
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj612868.aspx
> 2 teamed NIC dedicated to iSCSI storage.
Use Microsoft MultiPath IO (MPIO) to manage multiple paths to iSCSI storage. Microsoft does not support teaming on network adapters that are used to connect to iSCSI-based storage devices. (At least it’s not supported until Windows Server 2008 R2. Although
Windows Server 2012 has built-in network teaming feature, I don’t article which declare that Windows Server 2012 network teaming support iSCSI connection)
Understanding Requirements for Failover Clusters
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771404.aspx
> I have seen using MPIO suggests using different subnets, is this a requirement for using MPIO
> or is this just a way to make sure that you do not run out of IP adressess?
What I found is: if it is possible, isolate the iSCSI and data networks that reside on the same switch infrastructure through the use of VLANs and separate subnets. Redundant network paths from the server to the storage system via MPIO will maximize availability
and performance. Of course you can set these two NICs in separate subnets, but I don’t think it is necessary.
> Why should it be better to not have dedicated wireing for iSCSI and Management?
It is recommended that the iSCSI SAN network be separated (logically or physically) from the data network workloads. This ‘best practice’ network configuration optimizes performance and reliability.
Check that and modify cluster configuration, monitor it and give us feedback for further troubleshooting.

Windows stops responding and closes when I try to print

I have IE 9 on a vista 64 bit. Recently I had some problems with print jobs staying in the que. I resolved that and reinstalled the printer and drivers. I have a photosmart 5514. Ever since that day I can't print off a webpage. Coupons, bank statements etc. It says windows stopped responding and closes the webpage. I have been unable to fix this. Also since that day my microsoft works wont' work. It says I have corrupted fonts!

It is a wireless connection. What happened first after a year of flawless performance was I was asked to print a statement from my banks website. I tried several times and it kept shutting down with the windows error above. I was unable to print anything from that moment on. I spent half the day finding the problem and discovered my WP network key was changed. I have no idea how trying to print from the banks site did that. I called them to report the situation since it was so strange. Even asked them if they knew what that number even was. I still had issued so I just uninstalled the printer and used my installation disc to set it up again. Now I can print off my documents, PDF or Word but my Works files come up with the message that the font cache is missing or renamed. When I searched that I found it isn't uncommon and that it is usually a corrupted printer driver. I loaded it off my CD from HP. Not sure what to do now other than try to uninstall and reinstall. Just haven't had a time with work to do that yet. Also when I try to print off an email, webpage or even a coupon it does the windows has to shut down message. This will be my last HP printer. I have problems all the time with them and have owned nothing but HP for over 20 years. Four computers and printers in the house right now. I just can't deal with que issues and buying new printers every two years because I have a home office and must have it working.

Keyboard (USB) stopped responding ... and then it did. What's it mean?
