Mac Wirless problem

Lately my mac connects to the network fine, and if i download something, sometimes the internet cuts out completely and won't pick up any networks. Its an older computer I got it in 2007.
The only way to fix it is to reset. This is a pain to do every time.
any thoughts?

no one bothered to reply

Applet in Apple Mac OSX problem

Hi all,
have developing an applet long while using WinXP platform, everthing seem ok, but when i try over Apple Mac OSX, i has a loading problem saying that init failed to load ArrayList as error message said:
ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...
but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL and its length is NOT ZERO either. what is happening here? oh, ya, this only happen in Safari, in FireFox for Mac no problem, even Camino also pass the test, why? anyone have idea about this? because i'm new to Apple Mac.
also, there is another question whereby, when i use FireFox for Mac to load the applet, the applet load seem no problem but it just can't display properly. what i mean is that in Windows platform (IE6), this applet show entire applet successfully, but when i try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet is now successfully show, why?
lastly, when a button of an applet being click and this will bring a new window with some parameters value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see prompt out saying is security problem, is there any workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk above:
_______________________________FireFox_____Safari_____IE
_______________________________Win | Mac_____Mac____Win
1. load applet for 1st time___________OK_|_NO_____FAIL____OK
2. refresh applet after 1st load failed___OK_|_OK_____FAIL____OK
3. when applet button click (security)___OK_|_NO_____-_______OK
p/s: all above test was using same applet with same parameter and value.
below is the sample i capture from Apple Mac just now:

i has a loading problem saying that

said:
ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...Well, post the stack trace.
but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and
its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL
and its length is NOT ZERO either. You can still get an out of bounds exception with those conditions. The list could exist, its length could be N, but you're trying to dereference position N + 5, for example.
try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without
any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet
is now successfully show, why?My guess is that you're not calling repaint() when you should, but that's just a guess.
lastly, when a button of an applet being click and
this will bring a new window with some parameters
value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it
won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see
prompt out saying is security problem, is there any
workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk
above:Often you can sign applets so they can do things that unsigned applets aren't allowed to do.
Maybe you're making some kind of security mistake that Firefox and Safari are (properly) catching but IE isn't. In any event, post the error message.

I have a MacBook Air which has a camera installed in it but it doesn't seem to work for some things like iMovie and my security camera for emergencies. It does however seem to work for Photobooth and facetime. Please write back and help my mac's problems.

It'd be nice if you could help me with my mac's problems so I can start using iMovie and my security camera again. Thank you too all that answer.

Well, how have to determined no signal is being recieved to your mac?
Have you got something that shows the actual signal? Or have you just been trying to control a VST? What software are you using by the way?
I personnally went with a AKAI MPK25, because it's made already mapped for logic & ableton etc, so it just makes things incredibly easy.
I would suggest you return it if you can as a dead unit & perhaps look at something else a bit easier?
Otherwise, if you just want to get this working we can have a look a bit deeper.
And driver? OS X driver?

In the box with the disk came the product key, have put it in and it doesnt work. Please help..x

unfortunately - you can not. you can't even buy outlook by itself at microsoft's own website.
does it have to be outlook? maybe you can get away with using something else that's outlook compatible.
how about trying Thunderbird for Mac OS?
or maybe you can call apple and let them know you purchase the wrong version - they might give you a break and just pay the difference for the home and business version.
good luck

Lightroom 5, Mac. Problem with the Radial Tool. Marquee Lines disappear.

Lightroom 5 Mac. Problem with the Radial Tool. I use this tool a lot. I must have hit a hot key by accident because between photos the marquee lines have disappeared and i don't know how to get them back. Without the marquee lines there I cannot rotate or expand the radial tool.

I have attempted to uninstall, empty trash and a fresh download from Adobe. The problem is still there...

.Mac sync problem

I can't sync my computer with my .Mac account. When I go to "System Preferences"->".Mac"->"Sync", the computer just sits there and I won't be able to go into the "Sync" option. I can't access the "Advanced" option in this window neither, however the "iDisk" and "Account" options are accessible.
I don't know if this related with my iSync problem reported also in this forum.
Thanks in advance.

Replying to myself as the one long discussion about recent .Mac sync problems has been locked!!
Just to say that NOW .Mac on the web says:
".Mac sync services are currently intermittently unavailable to some users. Changes made to synced information will be reflected when the problem is resolved. All other .Mac services are unaffected.
Last Updated: 6/1/06"
So the MANY people who have been posting problems in the last 24+ h MAY find it resolves and is not their end. But, customer care suggestion to apple:
- IF you think .Mac syncing has a problem POST the info IMMEDIATELY
- Possibly even email .Mac members as many use sync all the time without logging on the .Mac web services
The time and stress (cand cost) spent by many trying to fix their own syncing is frustrating. I have spent several hrs over the last 24h unregistering, registering, syncing manually, resetting from different Macs, doing it item by item...finding a glimmer of hope when on one occasion Mail synced and on another so did contacts, only for .Mac login failures to continue...This has clearly been replicated by a large number of other frustrated customers from the other postings on this over the last day.

Dreamweaver 2014.1 Build 6947 (Mac) - save problem

I updated to latest version yesterday and now have a problem when I save files which shouldn't happen on a 2012iMac saving to a thunderbolt drive - and didn't happen before updating.
When I save a file i get to watch the (very pretty but boring) spinning top for a longtime. If the 'Force Quit' window is open it shows Dreamweaver 'not responding'. Mostly but not always Dreamweaver decides to respond again.
Same site, same settings, same HDD as before the update.
IMac: 3.4GHz i7 32GB RAM
OS X: 10.9.5
What have you broke?

Hi Nancy,
It seems it's a bug, so I will go back to the previous vetsion. Thanks for

Older intel mac display problems (x1600)

My mom has an intel imac (the version before the black/aluminum kind) and it had very minor display issues with Tiger (very infrequent horizontal lines). They were all resolved with further point releases of Tiger.
After upgrading to Leopard she has had numerous problems, all revolving around frequent and numerous horizontal lines. They sometimes get so bad that the current window is almost completely obscured.
Here is a flickr set of images that show the problem and the display specs. I know that was happening to users with newer imacs and x1900s, is this happening to other x1600 users?
Any ideas on what is going on? I told her to call apple, but her warranty has run out and she feels uncomfortable calling because she is not a technical person (exactly why I told her to get a mac—I have egg on my face now). Should she downgrade? Can this be a hardware problem?

Hi everyone, i have bought an iMac 20 with a core 2 duo 1 GB ram and an ATI x1600 (a white one, because the screen quality is better than the new iMac 20 alu)
and i've some display problems. First i was on Tiger and i didn't noticed any problems but as leopard came out i rapidly upgraded to it and then came problems with the display.
To make short, the lower part of my screen is lagging anormaly. When i drag a window or even the dock's animations are slower. And it doesn't occur on the upper part of my screen, windows can be dragged smoothly, there is no lag even if the CPU is working at 100% (like on every normal mac...).
I've noticed there is a little bump when i'm dragging a windows from the top to the bottom of the screen, it's like the window enter another area.
I've of course checked a lot of boards on the www, so i've tried a lot of things, my card ATI X1600 128mo PCIe is fully working with core image and quartz extreme.
Some people said to wait that spotlight finished to index, but it's done and the problems are still there.
Time machine is off
I don't use coverflow and i've tried it, it doesn't change anything.
I've also re-installed Tiger and, wo-ow the problem is still there, especially when all is up to date.
It seems that, the problem come from the last firmware update, i don't know if this firmware update was done for improving compatibility with bootcamp or leopard but for me it has added this strange display behavior.
I've also tried to turn off quartz extreme, and it's even worst, worst on the lower part again but no changes on the upper, everything run smoothly.
As i didn't noticed it when i used my mac for the first days (on Tiger and without the firmware update) and on windows with bootcamp there is still no display problems at all, i keep thinking it's not an hardware problem but a software (firmware, display on Mac osX) problem.
It should be solved by a new firmware or Mac os upgrade until then i have to do with it.
By the way, does anyone knows if there's a way for downgrading the gpu firmware ? (when i try, it say that i didn't need it), it's the only thing that i havent tried.
Thanks in advance, and i beg your pardon for my pittyfull frenglish :s

When you get the SF Compatibility plug in message something in the installed iWork part is corrupt. You ned to uninstall and install iWork again
You cannot completely delete iWork by moving the iWork '09 folder to the Trash. Instead, use Yvan Koenig's script:
          •          Go to http://www.box.com/s/00qnssoyeq2xvc22ra4k
          •          Choose public_YK > for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items
          •          Click on uninstall iWork '09.zip, decompress it, open it in AppleScript Editor and click the Run button
Restart the computer and install from the iWork disc. Do the Software updates too.

New to Macs with problems after 10.4.9 Update

Greetings.
This is my first post on these forums, so please forgive the newbieness..
I received a brand new 15" MacBook Pro 2.13GHZ less than a week ago. I have since installed another 1GB of memory in it and it has been running absolutely beautifully! I'm in love and have officially switched from using Vista (I was even a Vista beta tester).
Yesterday morning I applied the 10.4.9 OS update. And since then I have noticed a couple things that seem to be "off".
Granted, I have had less than a week with my MBP, so it's really hard to tell if these issues are related to the 10.4.9 update or they were always there and I never noticed. Here are my issues currently.
1. Sleep. When I close the lid of the MBP, it goes to sleep, which is normal. But when I open it back up, it seems to want to wake up, but doesn't. I usually have to hit the space bar to wake it again, type in my password (I have a screensaver password setup) and then it tries to wake again. Then goes back to sleep immediately. I repeat the process either 2 or 3 times until it finally fully wakes up.
2. Network. I had a WiFi network at home and a Wired network at work. Before the update I was able to connect to both with no problems at all. No user interaction was needed. I would just go home, wake the MBP from sleep, and it would automagically connect to my WiFi router, then going back to work, I would just plug in the wired network cable and automagically it would work.
Now after the 10.4.9 update, this functionality has seemed to stop. Both networks run of DHCP and no matter how much I release and renew the DHCP IP address at either location, it just doesn't seem to want to connect. Every time i've had to do a reboot of the MBP to get Network functionality to work again.
As I said before, I am not sure if this is because of the 10.4.9 update, since I've had so little time with the MBP. It's hard to gauge. I believe that it is the case though, because I definitely do not remember these two issues happening before.
One more thing to note is that I take my MBP to work every day, and bring it home at night, I don't shut it down, I just put it to sleep by closing the lid. There isn't much of a time that it is asleep, because I literally work about 5 minutes away from my apartment.
Sorry for such the long first post, I felt like I needed to describe things the best I could. Thanks!

Hi gOnk,
From Macfixit........
Re-apply combo updater for various issues At the risk of playing like a broken record, we cannot overstate the value of re-applying the Mac OS X combination updater as a solvent for various issues apparent after using the standard, delta (adjacent version-to-version) updater to migrate to Mac OS X 10.4.9. The delta updater is automatically used by Software Update if your current system iteration is 10.4.8. Re-applying the combo updater overwrites potentially problem-causing files that were not replaced by the delta update. Download link is as follows:

Mac Mini problems

I received my Mac Mini yesterday and have come across a host of problems. Some are probably due to my setup, while others are probably due to the Mac itself. I'd appreciate help in solving some of these.
In order of "most important" to "least important":
1.) I'm trying to hook the Mini to a Yamaha receiver (http://www.yamaha.co.jp/english/product/av/libimage/rxv2500/rxv2500rtl.jpg). Previously, I had hooked my PC media center computer into the orange DVD coaxial digital input jack in the lower left. The other end is a mini plug (which fits both in my old sound card and the Mini). I tried hooking the Mini up this way and the Audio Output preference panel claims I plugged in a "Line Out", not a "Digital Output". I can't get the Mac to recognize it as a digital connection -- I get no sound. Keep in mind this receiver can pretty much play anything thrown at it (PCM, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital, THX, etc). Am I going to have to bite the bullet and buy a cable with Toslink (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=TA9 68LL/A)?
2.) My goal of this setup is to take the movies I own and rip them to a "DVD jukebox" (a server I have in another room). Previously I was able to leave the ripped DVDs as "VIDEO_TS" folders on the hard drive, but Front Row doesn't like that. I've tried Handbrake a couple of times and the results aren't great (choppy video). Is there a guide to what settings are best for ripping DVDs to use in Front Row?
3.) Along that vein, I'm noticing Front Row is displaying my 4:3 videos in their original aspect ratio, rather than stretching them out to fill the widescreen. Is there a way to set this? (I noticed in the DVD player there's a video zoom option, but I don't see it in Front Row). My TV is a 4:3 HDTV, and the Mac Mini is displaying the desktop in 16:9 with black bars on the top and bottom. When it displays a 4:3 movie, it then puts black bars on the left and right. The video takes up 1/4 of the screen in the dead center -- it's like watching a postage stamp (I'm thinking of just dropping the resolution to 640:480 so it fills the screen).
4.) The range on the Bluetooth has been... not great. I bought an Apple wireless keyboard and mouse so I could sit on my couch and use the machine (similar to my old setup), but if I go farther than about 5 feet from the Mac Mini the mouse starts bouncing around the screen and occasionally gets disconnected. I tried a different wireless mouse and keyboard and got the same results. Bluetooth usually has a range much farther than 5 feet, so this is kind of disappointing. Is everyone else experiencing this?
Mac Mini (Intel) Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Chris,
You'll probably get a whole lot better responses and less chatter by posting each question separately, but we're here, so let's dig a bit on some:
1) No idea - it should just work. Are you sure you gently but firmly inserted the cable in both ends? Better to wait for someone with toslink experience on this one.
2) Not sure what forum this is best for - third party software questions? In general - you get better video settings by telling handbrake (or any codec) to not compress so much. Try giving it two passes to compress and allowing more data on the output end. There are lots of tutorials online
http://handbrake.m0k.org/documentation.php
3) Front Row is really basic - there is no user interface yet to even change preferences and looking at the property list it saves, there appears to be nothing to make that sort of control from the app. Best to re-encode your movies to signal the correct aspect ratio if you want to change how they play by default.
4) This may be the hardest to change since interference is most likely the issue and very hard to track (minute changes can make a big difference - not to mention that most of us fly blind while determining signal strength and trying to guess if there is interference or not). Try turning off other things that use that frequency. (Airport and home phones that use 2.4GHz are the worst typical offenders.) You might have luck having only air between you on the couch and the mini - but another technology might be needed if the interference is coming from a neighbor with a really powerful phone or a leaky microwave. There is no way a small mouse is going to out gun one of them...
