Lookupd bug still an issue???

Hi there!
Is it true that the old problem of the crashing lookup demon is still not patched?? At the first glance I only found discussions about this issue nearly a year ago.
I'm experiencing some of the problems
- network connection going down (but can be "reanimated" by disconnecting the cable for a few seconds)
- applications suddenly hang one after the other
- bad system.log entries like "lookupd hanging up"...
After some research I discovered some ways that should be help:
- install unlockupd
- disable CrashReporter
And indeed: A lookup-Crash now doesn't kill ALL my applications any more. But I realize that there is still a problem, because my network is going down.
In this case I normally try to shutdown all applications manually to avoid any data loss and try to reboot.
The problem is that it doesn't always work. Either it's because of the lookupd bug or my iDisk mirror image is somehow corrupt forcing the MirrorAgent to hang. Anyway: It's annoying...
Just yesterday I had to power off my Mac with the result that I found "HFS: removed 139 orphaned files" in my system.log and the systems looks "different" (meaning: some preferences were corrupt). As the times before, a check with disk utility after the crash found no errors at all. So I had to restore my home directory... again...
Is there a way to get rid of the lookupd bug? Or some maintenance stuff one can do to avoid crashing the demon? It's still annoying and reminds me of the Windows crashes in the old times. :-((
Thank You at least for listening...

This bug has indeed been around for far to long.  It impacts certain iMac's using ATI video cards and we're working closely with Apple and ATI to address it.  I'm hoping we see a resolution on it soon.

  • Users steal ownership of Wiki Articles in Profile Activity -- Is this bug still happening?

    Is anyone seeing this Wiki/Profile bug still happening (not just the results of how it happened last year):
    Users steal ownership of Wiki Articles in Profile Activity
    This is where the wrong person gets credit for the article (they were an editor but not the author) in the Profile Activity tab and thus, they get the Author points.
    Still happening?
    Meaning that the bug starts happening this year (and not just the issues with it last year).
    Thanks!

    Create a wiki article about it!

    You have a macbook pro too (as noted), does this happen with yours? If apple changed things and it's normal, like as you stated that it was lite so you'd know you're computer is 'on' but I'd like to know for sure if that's what it's supposed to be doing. (nip it in the bud if there's a problem)
    I know it isn't sleeping (not pulsing) but since the light is on (steady), it is something I noticed right away. For example, right now as I type this, with the MBP on my desk w/ the cinema display plugged in (w/ a keyboard) and the lid is closed on the MBP, the light is ON right now. Not pulsing, but a steady light. Doesn't seem like it should be, to me. (at least in my view)
    Thanks for your reply Josh.

  • TS1569 iphone ios5.1 still having issues with Bluetooth

    Iphone Ios5.1 still having issues on Bluetooth connectivity.

    I lost The Bluetooth function completely two weeks ago. iPHONE IOS 5.1 .
    This is not a pairing issue, or wrong usage. Suddenly it didn't work in my car any longer. Resetting didn't help. I have tested against two other iPhones, my PC, my headset and my iPAD. (all this units have had BT connections with my iPHONE earlier)
    My iPhone Bluerooth is simply not working anylonger, not detectable and cannot "see" or find any other BT devices.
    Is this a software bug? Or simply a hardware error requiring physical repair?

  • STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH FLASH PLUG-INS & CRASHES

    I updated to the new 11.6 Adobe Flash and I am still having issues. I had the same issues, with the previous version of Flash Player. This issue occurs, multiple times daily. When I play a game on Zynga.com or Facebook (Daily), I either receive the message that the "Plug-in is not responding," or it Crashes. This then effects other websites, I have open in other tabs ie; Verizon.net, Adobe, etc. I have posted numerous Bug Reports on Google Chrome and one Bug Report on Adobe, without any results? It is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING! It happens multiple times during a game, sometimes the plug-in issue resolves itself (only for a very short time) or it Crashes, or it doesn't do anything and I have to close the tab and re-load (refreshing does not work) or it just Crashes without warning and I usually lose data. I am not the only person, who has this issue RE: Game play on Zynga & Facebook. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks

    This seems to be an issue with Zynga games and the DEBUG version of Flash Player exclusively. I have always had to use the non-debug version of Flash Player when playing Zynga games. As such, this seems to be a problem on Zynga's end and therefore need to take it up with them.

  • Still having issues with animate composition showing in chrome

    I created a wonderful childrens activity page using animate.  For some reason everything shows up in the local preview, but once put onto a live host for public consumption, the animate portion of the paqe does not show up in Chrome.  It takes a few seconds in Firefox, IE, and Safari due to 4 Audio files but the composition is displayed once they are done loading.  It won't show period in Chrome. 
    When I first starting having the issue I noticed two 404 errors related to min.map files for jquery and edge.  I had a friend tell me that it had something to do with Chrome's unwillingness to work with local jquery hosted libraries.  I changed the publish settings so that the runtime files would refer to CDNs.  Even with this I'm still having issues.
    the 404 still exists for the edge file, but the jquery file is returning a 304 error now.  What is the deal with this and why isn't my work being displayed in Chrome?  Is this a bug? Or is there some kind of workaround for Chrome's inconcsistancy with this?  I really need this page viewable yesterday, so any and all assistance with this will be supererbly appreciated.
    The page in referenece is http://steamcurriculum.com/whatsmissing/index.html  and as you will see, only Chrome does not display the edge composition.

    Have you removed the page as i get redirected to http://steamcurriculum.blogspot.in/p/home.html/whatsmissing/index.html
    I do not see any edge realted content even in the source of this page

  • Issue with Wcf Adapter Service Template not inclueded or shown in Visual Studio.Follow steps which your site sugessted but still Template issue

    Hi,
    My server have SharePoint Server 2013,Sql, then necessary required SDKS like
    WCF LOB Adapter SDK(download Complete), Biz talk Adapter for my Sap business suite(download Complete), SAP client libraries,Business Data Catalog Definition Editor installed as part of
    the Microsoft Office SharePoint Server2013 SDK.
    Still facing issue Template not included in any version of Visual Studio.

    Hi Anand,
    While installing the WCF LOB adapter SDK, I guess you haven't chosen "Complete" installation.
    Try this:
    1) Open Add/Remove programs in control panel.
    2) Select the change option WCF LOB adapter SDK and enable 'Tools' in the list of features to be installed
    (Tools install the Add adapter service ref Plug-in).
    Alternatively,
    You can also uninstall and then install the WCF LOB adapter SDK, but this time make sure you do a custom install by checking everything not just the default.

  • I am still having issues with the TOC. I finally got several chapters and sections to show different pictures in the TOC, but have spent hours trying to figure out how to repeat it. This should be so simple. Is there an update? Please help us Apple.

    I am still having issues with the TOC pictures. I got several chapter/section photos to show up, but can't seem to repeat this success. It is some mystery that happened during a time that I had practically given up. This should be such a simple thing. Drag and place a picture into the placeholder and it shows up in the TOC....right? Help, help help! want to get this thing done and it's taken two days of work just get some of the photos to show up. I am going to have to publish this ibook with no photos in several sections.....why can't this be simple? I have even had someone else spend hours trying to figure this out. This software is such a GREAT idea....come on...help with this little part of it.

    I had the same problem myself. I got to the point where I couldn't replace the photo, of a new chapter, in the TOC. What I did was to duplicate an existing chapter that was working and was able to replace it's TOC's photo. I also found that if you try different areas of the photo you can sometimes get it to replace correctly. For example, instead of dragging the new photo to the middle of an existing photo, try dragging it to the right top corner.

  • Mac Pro 6,1 STILL having issues with Open CL (4K scaling and SpeedGrade direct link grades)

    I've seen the staff responses to the issues of the new Mac Pro GPU saying that 10.9.4 fixes everything. For me, it has fixed my export issues, so I'm glad. I'm no longer getting lines and artifacts on my renders.
    That's great.
    However, I'm still having several issues, and they seem to be linked to Adobe and Open CL.
    Here's a video that shows what's going on:
    mac pro issues july 7 - YouTube
    Issue #1
    Like most of you probably, I'm doing 1080p exports of most things I'm working on. The first project shows a 1080p timeline with a mix of 4k, 5k, and 720p footage. Because zooming in so much on a 720p file in a 4k timeline looks so crappy, I'm doing 1080p timelines and scaling everything to the size it needs to be. I started in a 4k timeline then switched to 1080p because the 720p footage looked so terrible. However, in the 4k timeline, I didn't have any of the issues I'm showing in this first part of the video.
    When I switched to the 1080p timeline, I discovered a weird quirk: When I resize the 4k (or 5k) footage to the size it needs to be (which varies based on the frame I want), it goes back to the 100% view when I'm scrubbing through it. When I pause, the size of the video goes back to the way I set it. I show this in the video. Then I show what was my working solution for the time being: "scale to frame size", which brings all the videos to the size of the sequence frame size and works fine. Later, I turn off OpenCL in premiere and when I scrub through the video, it doesn't zoom back in or only stay at the size I set when stopped. For some reason all of these issues only happen at 50% scale or smaller. It doesn't happen at, say, 60%.
    I've tested this with raw R3D files and other 4K (or 5K) clips (even clips exported from After Effects) and the same thing happens. It doesn't seem to happen with 2.5k footage or 1080p footage.
    Issue #2
    This is the second project you'll see in the video.
    After grading in speedgrade (through direct link) I open my project back up in premiere and start playing it back. The video plays back with delays and frame drops. Now normally, this would be expected. But this is 1080p pro res footage, and this is just an effect added, and the yellow bar appears indicating that open CL should be accelerating the playback and it should do so smoothly.
    Maybe I was just wrong in assuming that a simple grade from speedgrade would be able to playback smoothly. I turn off the grade, and it plays normally.
    But then, when I turn off open cl and leave the grade on, the video plays back without ANY issues.
    So to me, it seems I'm still having issues with Open CL and adobe. I've found fixes that make it work temporarily, I don't need that kind of answer. However, I would like this to work. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Something I need to do to get this to work?
    Here are my specs:
    Mac Pro 6,1 (Late 2013)
    3 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon E5
    64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 ECC
    AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB (x2)
    OSX 10.9.4
    Firmware: 2.20f18
    What you're seeing is latest version of Premiere (CC 2014, v8.0.0 [169] Build)
    Everything here is ProRes 422, running from a Promise Pegasus2 R4 RAID (drives: 4x Seagate Desktop HDD 4 TB SATA 6Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive ST4000DM000) (that's thunderbolt 2).
    I've done everything: I've restarted my computer hundreds of times, I've reset NVRAM and PRAM and done power cycles.
    This isn't just some issue that started with 10.9.3 of OSX, the 4k issues happened when I first switched to a 1080p sequence back in February (2014) or so, which means it was an issue even with 10.9.2 and the previous firmware release.
    I've reported this issue to adobe.

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Still image issues (I've already read the other similar post- didn't apply)

    Still having issues with still images in my timeline. Viewer they're fine, Canvas they're repulsive.
    Seq. settings are NTSC, 29.97, 48k. I have tried several different extensions for the stills and have even tried importing them at different sizes. I know I'm not the first person to incorporate stills in my timeline - how do I solve this? (I followed the advice on a similar thread from a few days ago).
    Also, I exported a small clip and viewed it on a different computer as a QT file and it was just as bad.
    Please help. I'll make you a mix cd or a burrito if you can help me out. Thanks.

    #1 Transitions "Insufficient Content"
    Shane's Stock Answer #1: Trying to add a Transition and get the error "Insufficient Content"
    A full 1 second cross fade reaches 15 frames into each clip. So, if you want to change a cut to a cross fade, there has to be at least 15 additional frames of each clip. Say you're trying to cross fade from one clip into the very first frame of a second clip. FCP cannot 'create' 15 more frames of the second clip to do a cross fade. If they're not there, you're out of luck.
    What you are running into is that you are marking an out point at the far edges of a clip then adding a cross dissolve, say 30 frames (one second) in duration. Since the dissolve is centered on the cut, it will start 15 frames before the cut, and try to go 15 frames AFTER the cut...which it can't do. What you need to do is plan how long your dissolve will be and back-time your cut so that it works.
    You need to make sure that your clips have enough media (called 'handles') at the beginning of the incoming clip and at the end of the outgoing clip for the transition. For example, if you have a 1 second (30 frame) dissolve, your in and out point need to be at least 15 frames from the edge of the clip.

    Shane's Stock Answer #8: External Monitor Viewing
    If you are working with DV, this is simple. First connect your computer to a camera or deck via firewire, Then connect the camera/deck to your TV/Monitor via RCA or S-Video.
    Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
    Go to the View Menu, choose > External video > all frames
    VIEW>Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
    VIEW>Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
    Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
    If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
    1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
    2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
    3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
    4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
    5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
    6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
    If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section.
    If you are working with HDV footage, FCP 6 allows you to view this via firewire, but ONLY as downconverted DV. It won't look the best, but you can see it. To do this,
    If you need to view any format other than DV at full resolution, then you need to look into capture cards. Several standard definition and high definition models are available from www.aja.com and www.decklink.com. With these options you'll need a proper monitor to view full broadcast colors, but all models allow for realtime standard definition downconvert, allowing you to view HD on an SD monitor.
    The Matrox MXO is another option that is output only, but allows you to view your footage on an Apple Cinema Display at full broadcast quality.

  • HT4628 Still having issues with Lion os X and wi-fi

    I am still havign issues with Lion os X and wi-fi.   I have 3 domputers in my house including the new macbook pro that has lion os x installed.    The wifi drops out all the time (every 2 minutes).   I have followed all the instructions on how to fix this but I am still having issues.    The other two computers work fine,  one of the is Lion os X that has been updated but I managed to play with the setting and fix this one.   This computer worked fine on Snow leapard and then a soon as I installed Lion the wifi started having issues.
    When will apple make an update that is going to fix this problem.     You want to buy a new computer that works,  I took it into apple and they told me that it is my router,  but I know it is the software as there are 100's of blogs and threads about this exact issue occuring only when their computer was updated to Lion.
    Is there anything else I can do to fix this issue other then un-installing Lion and buying Snow Leapard?

    Does this problem happen with just your airport base station?  Do you have a 3rd party wireless router?  Can you duplicate the problem using any wifi access point?  Did your computer come with 10.7 preinstalled?  Did you purchase the applecare with your computer?
