LG 22-inch monitor won't function properly after last Mac OS X Update

My new LG 22-inch monitor was working great until I received the last Mac OS X Update (10.4.9). I received this update after installing Tiger (better late than never...ha ha) and after I restarted my system, I saw multiples of the same files on my desktop, and when I would open a window, four duplicate windows would appear (this did not happen until after the update). The only thing that corrects the problem is to go into System Preferences => Displays and change the monitor resolution. But even after I Click to Lock Changes, I have to go in and do this every time I launch my system. I was so vexed that I hooked up the former monitor (Apple CRT, 17 inch) and now the same thing is happening to it! Sigh... I am no Mac Genuis, but I know someone out there can offer some advice! Thanks!

These warnings are accurate but according to Apple can safely be ignored. See Mac OS X 10.5: Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore. IOW, They are not normally problems.
I check the volume scheme but I don't have any partition
You do have partitions & a partition scheme. To check what the scheme is, click on +the drive itself+ in the list on the left in Disk Utility. It will probably be identified as "298,1 GB WDC WD3200AAJS-40VWA0 Media" or something very similar. If it contains the startup disk, it will be the first item in the list. It will have one or more named volumes indented under it, such as "Macintosh HD."
When you have clicked on the WDC drive instead of a volume name indented under it, you should see seven items of information about it at the bottom of Disk Utility's window, to the right of an icon representing the drive. The info is in two columns. The last item in the rightmost column, below the S.M.A.R.T. Status (which should say "Verified"), should be "*Partition Map Scheme :* " & be followed by the scheme type. It should be "GUID Partition Table."
If you don't see the seven info items after selecting the drive, it may indicate a problem that needs attention, but I suspect that you just haven't looked in the right place for the info....
As for the 'cannot install' message, make sure that you have downloaded the right update, that it is not the server update version for example. You may need to download it again, discarding the first download as somehow defective.

Open Office Not Functioning Properly After Mavericks 10.9.1 Update Today

Is anyone else getting this issue?
Everyone in the company I manage was using MS Office on their Windows-based computers and we were getting a lot of annoying formatting incompatibilities becasue I was using Pages on my Mac. I actually prefer Open Office and started using that again but we were still having trouble. I decided to install Open Office on all of our computers to avoid cross-platform dramas and with us all using Open Office, it has meant that we've elimintated all annoying little formatting incompatibilities and other problems.
We've been using Open Office on 3 Windows-Based computers and my MacBook Pro for about 3 months. I agreed to the latest Mavericks update 10.9.1 today and since then, whenever I start my Open Office application, I'm getting this annoying little box that won't go away (see attached picture) and numerous options in Open Office can't be accessed. I've deleted and reinstalled Open Office this morning and tried different combination of shutdown, restart, force quit and nothing seems to affect this problem. I also can't reopen files recently opened because an error box pops up to say that they can't be opened because Open Office is not installed. Yet I can go to finder and open them from there.
It would take too much time to list all of the separate issues I've found; so in summary, a lot of the Open Office functionality just ISN'T WORKING since the Mavericks update today. Apple, what have you done?! What can BE done to fix this?

Hi navaneeth27
Yes that's exactly what I'm experiencing.
I'm wondering whether it has something to do with having had Open Office running while installing the update to Mavericks 10.9.1. I had OO open when I agreed to the update and I was still working on a Writer file when my MacBook Pro unexpectedly shut itself down and began installing the update, showing only a progress bar in a small window before reloading everything. It was at that point that the unresponsive 'Don't Reopen' 'Reopen' window appeared. It's insidious and stopping much of the functionalty of OO from working. Such a pain!
I force-quit OO, fully uninstalled it, purged all mention of it from my MBP, restarted tried opening files that were set to be opened by OO by default, and confirmed that they were being opened by Pages - and they were by default. I then reinstalled OO 4.0.1 from the OO site (and that's what I had earlier today, before this adventure began). I then tried opening some previous documents that were saved as .doc and OO popped up WITH the 'Don't Reopen' 'Reopen' window AAAAGAIN!
I'm working on 2 screens so I've placed the box that just won't go away at the very edge of my MBP screen and am workng on files on my second screen - but much of the functionality still isn't available.
I'm stuck and don't know what to do next.

You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain. Note: you may have to Control (right) - click on the app after uncompressing and select Open due to the Sandboxing feature of OS X. If you have problems with the app create your own with AppleScript Editor.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.

Audigy LS stops random and functions properly after reboot

:Audigy LS stops random and functions properly after rebootM I am on a P5P800 motherboard with a SB Audigy LS in PCI2, running Windows 7 Beta and using version 5.2..200 of the driver.
I had the same problem on Windows Vista (both before and afer SP):
? at irregular intervals the sound card stops working. Mediamonkey does not detect the SB speakers anymore and none of the other programs can get audio to play.
All it takes is a system-reboot.
I know there is a later version of the driver, at least drivermax tells me there is a newer version. Trying to install this newer version results in the blue screen.
Any ideas where to look for the solution: I am sure that the chipset drivers are fine and I also tried switching the sound-card in from PCI3 to PCI2.
Help is wellcome: it is annoying most to have no sound randomly !

Restart the computer.

The premier timeline won't redraw properly after zooming.

the premier timeline won't redraw properly after zooming.
this seems to happen suddenly to random timelines, I can have other timelines in the same project behave perfectly but suddenly a timeline becomes cursed and then I'm stuck doing a long workaround to fix it
here's my workflow to get to where I am.
I'm bringing in PluralEyes xml's of DSLR footage and field audio,
I'm working off the replaced audio sequences, and then edit the audio in Audition to do tasks like normalizing, hum removal etc.
back to premier, edit, grfx, output.
Sometimes a timeline that I've previously finished a roughcut of just gets corrupted when I go back to it. Ive got it back to behaving normally by deleting all the rendered and replaced Audition audio, and then recutting the clips back into place and effectively rebuilding my sequence. Now these are a series of 2 minute interviews. If this was a major long form edit I'd be completely fu**ed.
About my setup. Late 2013 Mac Pro (Trashcan), 12 cores, 64GB Ram, Mavericks. I use spaces and have 5 virtual desktops typically (one for each app, PS, Pr, Ae, Chrome and other bulls***, one spare for random bulls***)
This is super s*** and I'm on deadline.
Please help.

Hi Scott,
I've been seeing an issue (for quite some time now) where if I'm working a job on two different edit systems (usually with duplicate media or using a shuttle drive for mobile editing) that when I open the project on the "other" system the timeline won't redraw properly and looks like the attached image. The edit is there and the system will play the timeline but it's unusable as you can't work.
Yes, I have seen issues here in support when users transport their projects from one system to another via a portable hard drive. It's very weird behavior and I'm investigating the issue. What you might try is a different method of transporting those projects, like a different drive, etc.
I will add this issue to my report. Feel free to file a bug report here.
Thanks,
Kevin

I had original iPhoto app from 2007, but in the last year it stopped working seemingly out of nowhere. Now I just installed iPhoto 9.5.1 but it won't open even after downloading the iPhoto Library Updater. My pictures are lost in the abyss.

Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

IMessage doesn't function properly after iOS 8 update

Looked everywhere for somebody with a similar problem but only came to find issues with group messaging, so here is my issue:
I have an iPhone 5C, 16GB with the brand new iOS 8 update.
Before iOS 8, I was able to use all the features of my phone to their full potential, including iMessage.
After about 2 days of having iOS 8, an issue presented itself, I couldn't iMessage only a handful of my friends.
Oddly enough, my iMessage has been acting slow, but still functioning for everyone else while the handful of friends I mentioned before cannot receive or message me using iMessage.
To clarify what happens:
When I click on my Messages app on my iPhone I use the above top-right plus sign to create a new conversation.
When I begin to type in their contact, I notice their name is gray. If this isn't an issue already, when I click on their name to create a new conversation, despite it being gray, it shows green instead of the official iMessage blue, which is the only way I can contact them.
I'd also like to point out that it does not matter whether I am connected to WiFi or using my AT&T Cellular data, iMessage just fails to function properly.
If it helps, the two people I have noticed this issue with have iPhone 4's running the latest iOS 7 firmware. I have been able to message another friend with an iPhone 4, which is a reason I think their phones aren't the issue.
Thanks!

I've had lots of problems with sending some messages as text messages and then other times as iMessages even though I have data and am signed into iCloud and am sending to another iPhone. Group messages are definitely problems with everyone having iPhones. It seems like it usually involves someone who hasn't updated to iOS8 yet. But it doesn't always mess up. It seems random for me and my friends and family who are having these same issues.

Monitor won't wake from sleep since 10.4.8 update

Since upgrading to 10.4.8 my display (Dell 2405FPW) wouldn't wake up from sleep mode (overnight only) and I'd just get a black screen (although it sounded like the CPU was powering up and working fine) ... but after visiting some Apple discussions I've done some troubleshooting ... and today, the Monitor DID finally wake up from sleep ... but the display was a pixelated mess(!?)
To date I have verified and repaired all permissions. I've zapped the PRAM. I've RESET the SMU and the NVRAM and I have deleted the PowerManagement.plist ... but this problem still persists, and it requires a restart to correct (which is maddening) Could it be an extension conflict? The video card? Power Supply? Sounds like a LOT of ibook and iMac folks are experiencing the very same problem.

Interesting, You, like me, have an undetermined sleep problem and a Dell 2405 FPW monitor with a built in USB 2 hub. Temporarily substitute another monitor to see it the problem persists. Also, did your G5 require a new PCI graphics card?
An ATI Radeon 9600 (PC/MAC Pro) PCI graphics card was installed on mine to handle that large screen Dell. Generally the system works again with a hard restart if it can't wake from sleep--try pushing the tower's front power button for more than 8 seconds and repeat this 8 sec restart if sleep persists. Mine sometimes goes to deep sleep even if the Energy Saver panel shows computer sleep "Never". Since the Dell was designed for a PC the Mac's auto detect mechanism for the sleep state of online monitors may be fooled by something in the design of the Dell monitor--only a theory--my Dell 2405 sometimes goes black and on again with mouse movements even though my sleep corner is turned off. I think I'll try a 24 hours with only my second Sony 17 inch monitor plugged into the card.
Is the USB cable from the Dell USB hub still plugged in? Was your G5 originally equiped with USB 2 ports or did you add a PCI USB 2.0 card? The Dell hub is USB 2.0 and it is logical, maybe even critical, to plug your high speed peripherals and the Dell hub in a USB 2 card while retaining original USB 1.1. ports for your wired keyboard (wireless keyboard might also be a problem) and other powerless (or AC plugged) peripherals--cameras etc.
This may also be a PCI card problem as I had a lesser problems with sleep even before I bought the DEll 2405 FPW and had only PCI SCSI and USB 2 cards from Adaptec. I 'll keep looking for solutions. Post if you find any. For further info see:

Premiere timeline won't redraw properly after opening project on different system

I've been seeing an issue (for quite some time now) where if I'm working a job on two different edit systems (usually with duplicate media or using a shuttle drive for mobile editing) that when I open the project on the "other" system the timeline won't redraw properly and looks like the attached image. The edit is there and the system will play the timeline but it's unusable as you can't work.
I've found that some combination of duplicating the sequence and/or quit and restart might fix it. Importing the sequence to another project will too. A talk about this on twitter with other editors who have seen this says a relink to the media will fix it. I used to think that was a problem of using Dropbox to store a PPro project files was the culprit but it happens when I use a shuttle drive to keep the same project on two computers in sync for editing on one or the other.
Anyone else? Any solutions?

Qosmio g55-q804 won't restart properly after hibernation

my qosmio g55-q804 went into hibernation and now it won't restart properly....it restarts in the safe mode and when going in NORMAL mode, my original desktop appears however, it doesn't respond; my internet connectivity icon has a red X on it, and the programs don't repsond. it works ok in the safe mode with networking but i want to restore my laptop to operate in the normal mode. i've tried system restore while in the safe mode, removing the battery pack, removing the hard drive but to no avail. i'm reluctant at this point to do a full HDD recovery with my recovery CD's....please help! i'm not a computer whiz, and can't afford a new laptop right now

can i create a new account from the safe mode with networking?
I'm not sure. Try it while in Safe Mode and let us know.
--------------------8<------------------- <snip> ---------------------
Also, let us know how Windows responds when you boot clean (instead of to Safe Mode). You should be able to set this up while in Safe Mode.
   1. Open the System Configuration utility (msconfig.exe).
   2. On the General tab, click Selective startup and clear the Load startup items check box.
   3. On the Services tab, click the Hide all Microsoft services check box and click Disable all.
   4. OK out and restart the computer.

Monitor won't turn on after "sleep"

Hi,
I have an Apple Studio Display 17" hooked up to a New Mac Pro, running 10.4 Tiger. When the computer goes to sleep the monitor won't come back on when I wake it unless I shut the monitor off and turn it back on again. Why?
Dan

What did ssh probing tell you.
Try using PC blindly. For example, leave music player on screen, wait for the fault to appear and than start it. If you hear the sound, then it is either:
Your closed-source driver mistake. Try changing it's version either side or replacing with open-source one. For radeon it is really better already.
Your monitor can't wake up from sleep. Nothing can help it, then. When rebooting PC, it gets a special signal, different from that on sleep.

Monitor won't wake up after sleep mode

Does anyone know how to fix the monitor, so it starts up after sleep mode? When my computer comes out of sleep mode the monitor doesn't always come on. Does anyone else have this problem and do you know the cause? The computer is only a few months old and hadn't had any problems.
Thanks,
Shaneil

Well my solution may not be the most cientific one but it works for me (at least until the real solution comes to the public)...
My computer has the problem that when it goes to sleep mode she never comes back... but it the screen that does not comes back... all the system is workin in behind (its like the brightness level was set on the less power possible) so i had to turn off the computer and had to do for a long time some times i had to wait that the computer cooled off a little and then try again to turn it on... I some tried things that the support page of apple said it could be... but did worked out... i dont know i think is a problem over 2 factors...
1. heating (the screen generates to many heat but, TO MANY!)
2. tiger os the OS "sleep mode" (it knows that the screen its heating a lot and tries to go to sleep to prevent over heating and damage)
So based on this i tried conecting a external monitor to the computer while she was unable to "awake" (or to show some thing in the screen)... and it worked whit no problem at all... so my conclusion was to prevent the over heating (1st factor) and the sleep mode (2nd factor)... so I deactivated the sleep mode setting up the computer to a never sleep mode... and to prevente the over heating well I use a low bright and when i need more brightness (to se the colors of what im doing or some thing like that) I use high brightness... when I away I set the brightness level to no brightness so there is no over heat and no sleep mode (cus if it is deactivated and it over heats it will go to sleep anyway...
Soooooo....
1. deactivate Sleep mode...
2. Activate a Screen saver...
3. And remember to contro your brightness your self... and turn it off when you are not using your computer...
well i hope it works for some body :P cya...

IPad won't plat video after last iOS update

Imac 2006 monitor won't display properly

The left half of my monitor is fuzzy and black on my 2006 imac. I have a cable to connect an external monitor. How do I get the external monitor to work properly. Right now when I plug in the external monitor, all I can see is when I move the mouse left to right (and off the imac monitor, it continues onto the external monitor. I am a beginner with all this.

Open System Preferences, click on Display, click Detect Displays, select your external display, and check the box for Mirror the Internal Display. That should make the external display what the internal display is supposed to show.
You might have to fiddle with Resolutions to get the external display to appear properly (if at all, because it is probably a bad logic board or graphic processor, which will make external display not work properly, and is a very expensive repair).
Good luck.
