Login fails most of the time!

Hi Guys,
I'm having issues loggin in to skype in the morning at work. I'm using my MS account, with two-factor authentication enabled. When trying to login I'm typing my user/pass, then I'm being asked for my authentication code; after that, skype takes a really really long time to authenticate (30-40 seconds), it fails and I'm taken back to the account selection screen (where I need to specify whether I'm planning on using a MS/Skype account).
If I retry this for 6-7 times, it will eventually succeed in loggin in.
This has been happening for a while now.
Any suggestions ?

What wireless router are you using?
What firmware revision is it running? Is it 2.4ghz or 5ghz?
Wireless has become more and more used and hence the chance for interference has grown by leaps and bounds. Even in your own household there can be AV senders, cordless phones, baby monitors, front door bells and cameras.. all running wireless on 2.4ghz. To say nothing of the neighbours.
So it can be software driver issues.. a hardware failure issue.. or just plain old noise issue.
When the wireless does connect, hold down the option key and click the airport symbol in the top menu area.
It will show you some info on the connection.. including noise and link speed.
Or open terminal and type airport -I
Here is what I get.
macproie-5:~ Ray$ airport -I
     agrCtlRSSI: -46
     agrExtRSSI: 0
    agrCtlNoise: -82
    agrExtNoise: 0
          state: running
        op mode: station
     lastTxRate: 145
        maxRate: 144
lastAssocStatus: 0
    802.11 auth: open
      link auth: wpa2-psk
          BSSID: fc:75:16:e9:69:b8
           SSID: TG782T
            MCS: 15
        channel: 6
I suggest you manually try at least the main non-overlapping channels in the wireless router.. so set to channel 1, 6 and 11 to test in turn if any work better.

[SOLVED] Netbeans - Run fails - most of the time

Hello everybody,
I have just today installed Netbeans Verion 7.0 and all plugins are up to date.
I have a strage error with a simple "Hello World" program:
The program builds always fine, but it runs just in about 1 of 5 tries.
Here are some screenshots:
Build Info
Success
Fail
I also realized, that when I choose "Debug / Debug Main Project" this works all the time.
Any suggestions?

disabling the built-in profiler: in project properties ->
Profile, uncheck "Show profiling indicators during run".
solved the problem.

[solved]WoL fails 'most of the time', sometimes

Sorry for the cryptic topic name, but I didn't want to make it too long
I've been setting up wake-on-lan on my desktop computer, with my server waking it up. I followed the wiki entry and everything worked. I didn't even need ethtool. When I SSH into my server and run
sleep 1s ; wol -v -p 97 -i 192.168.1.3 00:07:E9:73:09:44
and then suspend my computer (s3) it wakes up a minute later. I've also tried adding it to the crontab of the server and it works. But when there is a big gap between the suspending and the wake-up it fails. The gap seems to be roughly an hour or so. Yesterday evening I changed the crontab on the server to this, and shut off my computer.
* 6,7 * * * wol -v -p 97 -i 192.168.1.3 00:07:E9:73:09:44 -w 10
The computer woke up about 6:45.
Google turned up a hit about a fedora user where it failed after an hour, but that was because the router went into sleep mode, but my server torrents all night.
I tried with S1 suspend, but my comp didn't want to suspend with that.
One evening when it didn't woke up I went to my server and started issuing manual wol's, at roughly the 10th try I succeeded, no clue why.
I haven't really figured out if the -w switch makes any difference, I didn't really understand the man page's description of it.
EDIT: yay 400th post!

It worked this evening after a 4h sleep with

in my crontab. No idea what caused the problem, but it'll hopefully work now. I'll see if it works tomorrow.
Nobody answered to my thread :'(

Most of the time when I export photos by email, it fails

Most of the time, but not all, when exporting photos by email, it takes a long time then fails, how do I fix?

You can stop that behavior by changing two settings within the browser. Go to Tools -> Options and click on the CONTENT button. Make sure that "Block pop-up windows" is checked. Then click on the ADVANCED button on the far right and add a check to "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload".
That should stop most of them. If not all, then you could install AdBlock Plus add-on, since most of the redirects are ad generated. (Tools -> Add-ons -> Get Add-ons)

(Running Windows 7 Home Premium) When Firefox 4.0 hangs (forcing a shutdown) or crashes (the screen has even gone to black) my windows fail to restore most of the time.

On the occasions when the windows fail to restore, I usually see a blank start page with something to the effect of "about:restore" or "about:restore session" in the URL line. I've tried pressing enter, but it didn't help. Other times, I've immediately tried going to the History menu, but the "Restore Previous Session" menu pick is faded out. I followed the help posted here to activate the restore windows feature, but the windows still fail to restore most of the time. I'm not a techie, so I'd really appreciate some easy to understand help.

The DMP file is inconclusive. You could run driver verifier to find the underlying issue but WPR is often easier.
In order to diagnose your problem you will need to download and install the below
Install the WPT (windows Performance Toolkit)
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652
Help with installation (if needed) is here
When you have, open an elevated command prompt and type the following
WPRUI.exe (which is the windows performance recorder) and check off the boxes for the following:
First level triage, CPU usage, Disk IO.
If you problem is not CPU or HD then check off the relevant box/s as well (for example networking or registry) Please configure your as per the below snip
Click Start
It will reboot 3 t imes and record the data to a file and tell you its name and location.
Zip the file and upload to us on Onedrive (or any file sharing service) and give us a link to it in your next post.
These crashes were related to memory corruption (probably caused by a driver).
Please run these tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.
If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved. If you don't
know what it is you probably are not overclocking.
Since it is more likely to be a driver please run verifier first.
1-Driver verifier (for complete directions see our wiki here)
If verifier does not find the issue we can move on to this.
2-Memtest. (You can read more about running memtest here)

A work around is to export from your camera roll.
So export the video to the camera roll.
Go to Photos app,
and choose export (the arrow pointing out), and choose to go to you tube form there.
It tends to be a little more reliable.
Hope that helps!
Also please tell Apple:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/imovie_iOS.html
They tend not to care about a few things being busted in their equipment, but might fix it if enough people complain.

I have no idea whether there is a causal relationship but since moving to Lion and iCloud, my iMac has become so unresponsive that I wind up having to crash and restart most of the time. This is true regardless of the app I am using at the time.
The specs of this iMac are:
iMac 27 inch, late 2009 model with a 3.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 Gig 1067 Mhz DDR3, using OSX Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
I have Mackeeper installed and according to the scans I have run, everything is fine. No virus, no junk files . . . no problems at all . . .
Except that for all practical purposes, my computer isn't working.
I am nearly totally deaf and live in an isolated, rural area of NW Missouri and this computer is what I mainly rely on to contact friends, relatives and business associtates!
Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than ten or so files or folders on your Desktop, move them, temporarily at least, somewhere else in your home folder.
If iCloud is enabled, disable it.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

E-mail won't send most of the time

Ever since my Touch upgraded to the v. 4 firmware I've had trouble with sending e-mail. I don't have as much problem receiving mail...sometimes I can only preview my messages and but most of the time I can open received messages. For a while I couldn't send mail (I use Yahoo and the Touch already had the server settings for it), then after a couple of days it suddeenly started sending again. Now it's not sending! So aggravating!!
The error message says "The connection to the outgoing server "apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com" failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars." This seems silly because it works - just off and on! Does anyone else have this issue...any solutions? Thanks

majorv~
I am having the same problem. I have an ipod touch that worked fine up until the 4.0 firmware. The only thing I have noticed with mine that it was glitchy when it came to sending mail (which I use yahoo). Then most recently it stopped sending altogether. My isp is verizon & I have an airport extreme. I noticed today I can bounce off of a neighbors linksys wifi. Now I have no clue who their isp is. It's either verizon or comcast. Regardless I was able to send mail using their internet. Mine on the other hand is a no go.
I too am *extremely frustrated*. I have deleted my mail accts several times in hopes of it fixing the problem. I also updated to the latest firmware of 4.1 in hopes of it resolving the issue. I even tried using other smtp servers with no luck.
I hope someone out here has a solution to this problem. It is very frustrating.

Parent talking to child fails some of the time?

Hi All,
Have others found that sending a value (stored in a variable) from a parent (main timeline) to a child (movie clip) fails some of the time but only when the movie is running as a .swf (it never fails when testing in authoring)?
My main timeline's actionscript has:
XYZ_ChildMC.variableA = false; //parent talks to child movie clip
In the child MC script:
import fl.video.*;
var variableA;
function completeHandler(e: fl.video.VideoEvent): void
     if (variableA == false)
             myFLV.seek(0);
             myFLV..play();
This seems to fail about 5% of the time when running/rerunning the .swf in a browser.
Anyone have a similar experience?
Thanks

never had that problem. most likely you have a timing issue.
use the trace function or textfield to determine if completeHandler is executing before variableA is assigned.

BPM process most of the time not started,

Hi XI dudes,
In our latest XI scenario we read a file from a shared folder (on the same host as the xi server is installed) and we pass the input into an BPM scenario.
There is however a very annoying behaviour: the file is always read correctly, but is most of the time (75% fails) not passed towards the BPM. It seems that in some cases the route determination is not working correctly.
Inside the BPM scenario we do a number of action, but we can divide them in 2categories:
1) RFC calls
2) File creation
The RFC calls do always succeed, the file interaction almost never.
Also, when we try to write the result of the xi scenario into a file, this fail 90% of the time. The calling of the RFC always happens correctly.
What we do at the moment is just copy exact the same file again and rerun the scenario, until is works. This is however not the way it should be.
On monday we are having a very important demo. All input is apreciated and will be rewarded.
Kind regards
Joris

Pop3 account sometimes shows mails / folders, most of the time does not

Hi,
I have 2 mail accounts set up on my iphone: A mobileme one, which works reasonably well, and a POP account.
Sometimes when I go into the POP account I see and Inbox and a Sent folder, and the inbox is full of my mails.
But most of the time when I click on the POP account I just get a blank screen and "Connecting..."
Is there anything I can do to fix this? At least I'd like to see the mails I've already received.
Thanks,
Tom

The Mac Firewall in Leopard has three settings
Allow All which is effectively Off
Allow Essentials which allows certain prescribed services only.
And Allow Specific Applications and Services. You need to add whichever things you want to work with the internet by application or service even if it uses a port you know is used by something else.
For instance - If you had iChat and AdiumX both of which log on to the AIM servers on port 5190 by default you have to allow both apps in the Specific Section list (the same if you change their Login ports both to 443
Now there seems to have been a problem at the OS 10.5 to 10.5.1 change over.
It seems that the OS is holding on to the 10.5 setting (which in fact may not be working at all)
Therefore use the - sign at the bottom of the list to remove any item that was there before the 10.5.1 update and then set the firewall to Allow All and then set it back again and use the + sign to re-add applications.
The Firewall will work on whichever connection the Mac has to the next device in line, towards the internet.
Thanks for the points

Yosemite slow boot .... most of the time

I use EtreCheck to see what's running on my system.
One such check showed this:
A little research showed that Warmd 'controls caches used during startup and login. It is a launch daemon started by launchd during boot and is not mean to be invoked directly.'
Besides this single occurrence, I have not been able to see warmd creating a problem since. (and I run EntreCheck after any slow startup)
Additionally, my 'slow startup' happens irregularly. About 95% of the time. Isn't that weird?!
Most of the time my system (defined below) just hangs at the progress bar for about 1.25 minutes. Then starts.
Apple, what is your take on this?

Most of the times my saved tabs open, but every once in a while they don't and I lose them

I usually have a bunch of links open, so I have the settings set so my previous tabs always open. Most of the time, they do. Every once in a while, like today, though, Firefox decides to open to my home page instead. I never know when it is going to do this, so I never know which links to save in case it happens. Often, therefore, I lose several of the links I had open.

The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2324/ Session Manager] add-on may be helpful - it uses a more complete and fail-proof method, generally, and has a number of advanced features for session management.
Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help other users with similar issues.

With version 5 of Firefox, if I open more than 1 session, most of the time I cannot see anything in the navigation bar and my back and forward buttons do not work.

I open 1 session of Firefox 5.0.1 and everything seems to work fine. Then I open a second session of Firefox and most of the time the navigation bar does not show the page that I am on and the back and forward buttons do not work. When this happens, the first session always remains working. I am an internet marketer so I have at least 2 or 3 sessions going at any given time.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

When I open a link in a new tab, most of the time it opens to the bottom of the page, and I have to scroll back up to the top or hit the Home key.

When reading a web page, I will right-click on a link and select 'open link in new tab' and most of the time it will open the new page right at the bottom. I then have to scroll up with the mouse or hit the 'home' button on my keyboard to get back to the top of the page. I've already looked at the tab settings in the options menu, and there's nothing there that seems to apply.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
