Last update broke my mac
Hi all
Seems the last update broke running games with Steam, and broke Skype. Any idea what might have caused this, and how to fix it?

Hello:
Well, since none of those third party programs have been changed, and since the Apple update *did* change my mac, it was the one that broke things.
Actually you completely missed my point. Software that is being maintained by a manufacturer (translate Apple) is under regular incremental improvement. Third party developers have access to the changes before they are released to the general public. The reason I suggested you contact the third party developers is because they may already have a fix or workaround.
Is there an easy way to roll back such an update?
If you backed up your system prior to doing the update (always an essential step), yes. If you did not, no.

Hi,
I have an asus K53S with a GT540M and an intel graphic processor. I have installed bumblebee to use both, but after the last update, the output of optirun is :
[ 8018.361930] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: Could not load GPU driver
[ 8018.361968] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.
I don't think the problem is in /etc/bumblebee.conf ( http://pastebin.com/piV9LgLv ), Driver is set to nvidia.
Did that happen to anyone else ? Any help to troubleshoot would be welcome.
Thanks

For reference on my ASUS N56V bumblebee works fine. Nvidia 635M. Probably configuration issue (but do post the information requested). -
Hi,
Since my last update, I can't launch X anymore. It's not really convenient
I read some problems about KDEmod but i'm not using it. I just have the regular version of KDE (from extra/). In the list, of updated packages i spot:
Kernel (2.6.33)
xorg-server (1.7.6)
xf86-video-ati (6.12.192)
xf86-video-mesa (2.3.0)
(I have an ATI Radeon Mobility X700.)
When i try to run x with startx, i don't see any special errors.
Can anyone help, please ?
Thank youI downgrade to previous version of xf86-video-ati
From 6.12.192 to 6.12.4
Now I can launch my X server... But it's a temporary fix. I can't stay with this version forever. It's stranger that I am the only one having troubles... -

Now, i had reinstalled upower 0.9.15 and libimobiledevice. Everything works fine for one reboot. By the second reboot, doesn't work anymore :?
There is something that i can do?
Thanks, Gabriele.up guys

[Solved]Last update broke my X. Now it doesn't want to start
Hi everyone,
I updated my 64 bit Arch today, and when i rebooted the X server didn't start. When I type in "startx" I am getting error message which says something like "Failed to load module nvidia (module requirement missmatch, 0)", but i can load nvidia module with "modprobe nvidia" then when I type in "startx" again everything is the same. How do I overcome this problem. I think I have been using this version of nvidia driver since 2011-08-17 but today my kernel version changed. Can this be the problem and what should I do in this case? I tried downloading the same driver from the nvidia site, so I can build it on my system with the new kernel but I ended up with the same error. I'm thinking of trying the new 285 BETA driver but probably this won't help either. Please give me some hints on what should I do. If this is not the proper place for my post, please excuse me
Last edited by raxbg (2011-09-01 14:26:00)Thank you laloch, this did the job, but triggered another problem ->
Buttons problem: http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/5505 … 11436r.png
the buttons outlines don't show up and the background of the dock at the bottom is also broken and so is the windows titlebar. Is this somehow related to the IgnoreABI option or is the driver incompatible with the new kernel? I am using compiz btw... but everything elese seems to be working good(except that xbmc doesn't want to start).

it_IT was a fallback ... trying to fix it I removed it from locale.gen but I didn't solve the problem.
Before I removed it the system fallback to italian language everywhere.

Partial success. The XFCE menu change to english, but part of the system is still in italian.
Somewhere, something keep setting this thing in italian. Besides, these messages ..
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory
... seem to indicate that en_US locale is partially broken ..
Eventually, how can I reinstall everything?
Which packages need I to reinstall? -

After the last update on Mac os 10.9.2 end of April - I
After the last update on Mac os 10.9.2 end of April - I opened Pagemaker and my whole system crashed after talkign with Apple, I had to erase everything on my hard drive. I finally got it fixed and re-installed pagemaker cs5 and a few other program that I HAD to have while I was on vacation. When I got home, I tried installing CC and various programs (pagemaker, indesign, photoshop etc. Had to erase all of the other adobe programs and start from scratch. Every time I open ANY adobe products all of my "white space" is pink and white vertical striped in EVERY program. Apple mail, contacts etc. If I completely shut down the computer and then restart everything is fine until I open an adobe product again. I can't seem to get any help out of Adobe, does any one have any suggestions before I cancel my subscription entirely?

Since the last update I have been unable to print from Firefox. No problem printing from Safari or any other program. I've seen a few responses to this problem but only to people running Windows. I'm on a Mac running v. 10.5.8.

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.
Both these situations have cropped up on my MacBook Pro since the last update.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
BobThe 'Winmail.dat' problem has been extensively covered in these forums, I would search for that (a Google search works well) and unfortunately I have not seen the pdf print problem before, but assuming the software is current and functions normally (other than the pdf print problem) I have no suggestion other than the obvious (but time consuming) re-installation of Office.
I wish I had more
