Machine imaged with FOG keeps losing trust relationship and reverting name

A Dell Optiplex 980 workstation (Win7 Pro x64) that I imaged with FOG has lost its trust relationship to the domain and reverted its hostname back to what it was originally (when imaged). It has done this twice in the past few days.
I can disjoin/rejoin the domain and rename the PC with the local admin account (done this twice now also), but what could be causing the name to revert? I have never seen this before. I'm fairly sure that losing the TR is only caused because of the name change. Could this be a setting in FOG causing this? I have FOG set to *not* join the machine to the domain after image task, I do it manually. Maybe I should be having FOG do it? Thanks....

You need to make sure that your reference machines are sysprepped before proceeding to the deployment.
Also, you need to make sure that your AD replication and DC health status are fine. You can achieve that using
dcdiag and repadmin commands. You can also refer to my article here: http://www.ahmedmalek.com/web/fr/articles.asp?artid=23
The issue can also be caused by security software you are running on your machines.

TS1398 My ipad3 seems to have connection issues. It is wifi only but keeps losing the connection and is really slow in loading pages - a bit like dial-up speed! My iPhone 4s and daughters' ipad2 have no problems at all. Any ideas anyone?

My ipad3 seems to have connection issues. It is wifi only but keeps losing the connection and is really slow in loading pages - a bit like dial-up speed! My iPhone 4s and daughters' ipad2 have no problems at all. Any ideas anyone?

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

I keep losing my history and tabs when I close. I don't have any boxes checked in the privacy section to do so. My tabs also don't show the icons.

I keep losing my tabs and history and I have it set in FF to save my history. It doesn't happen all the time just randomly but still annoying. I read all the help and everything that they said to check was fine. I also don't get the icons on every tab like I used to. some have it some don't. I have a tab up for Yahoo and it used to show the Y and now just an empty box. but Facebook shows the F.
I can live without the tab icons but it is really annoying when I lose all my history and tabs.

Firefox > Tools > Options > Privacy > History
Firefox will "Use custom setting for History"
Keep until "They Expire"

My imac keeps losing ISP, INTERNET AND SERVER but still has WIFi

my iMac keeps losing ISP, INTERNET and SEVER but is still connected to the Wi-Fi and when I tern on the mac i have to connect it every time and it is on preferred net work its the Olney one then after I connect it works for about 20 min then stops and I got to network preferences and click on ASSIST ME - DIAGONSTICS and it shows ISP INTERNET AND SEVER ALL IN YELLOW.

Open System Preferences Network pane. In the sidebar, if you see things you do not use for networking, remove them (you can add them back later if they are ever needed). For example, if you don't use Bluetooth or FireWire for networking, remove them from the list of networking services. To do this, select the item on the list and click the minus sign at the bottom of the sidebar. You can leave Ethernet on the list.
NOTE: Bluetooth and FireWire networking is not related to their use for connecting devices.
Also, click on the gear icon at the bottom of the sidebar, and select Set Service Order. Make sure Wi-Fi (or AirPort for older Mac OS X) is at the top of the list.
Apply the change (and maybe restart your Mac as well). See if that makes any difference.

IMac keeps losing ISP, internet and Server but still connected to wifi

My Imac keeps losing ISP, Internet, and Server but is still connected to the Wifi. To recnnect, I have to go into Netwrok Diagnostics - assist me. This is happening every twenty minutes or so (sometimes less). Can anyone help? I might add that we have recently moved house and never had this problem before.

Wifi problems seem to crop up a lot on here and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a 'one fix' solution.
However, sometimes any one of the following can help although, unfortunately, not always. In no particular order:
Check wifi security - if it's WEP change it to WPA or WPA2 (preferably, as it's more secure)
Change the wifi channel on the router
Create a new Network Location: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5289
Reboot the router
Also take a look at this link and the links within the article for other ideas. They mainly reference Lion, but still seem to be relevant to Mountain Lion:

Problem with ARD3 keeps losing the cursor

I am having problems with ARD3 whereby I keep losing the cursor when controlling another machine. The cursor is still there but you have to click-drag to see it moving. There was a similar problem a few months ago after a system update and pre ARD 3.1. I used to be able to upload the ARD client and that would solve the problem temporarily. But now that won't even work.
Another thing I notice when that happens is that my "Hidden Dock" stops appearing unless I click in the area. That also happens with my menus. And Expose stops working too.
The only way to get around the problem, is to either restart the computer or leave it for anything up to 1 hr, then it will be fine again.
Does anyone have the same problem?
I use a MacBook Pro DC 2G with 2G of RAM. 10.4.9 and all the latest System Updates including Security Update 2007-04. This started happening even before the 2007-004 security update.
MacBook Pro DualCore 2G Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I find that this happens only if a tool tip comes up after having it over an item in the toolbar however clicking in the remote computer's windows somewhere will bring the cursor back. Additionally switching windows, to say the main ARD window, and then back again will restore it as well.

Every time I try to view images with firefox it crashes, shuts down and then asks if I want to re-open, how do I view images again with firefox?

Everytime I try to view images with firefox it crashes, submits a report, to which I've had no response yet, asks if I want to restart firefox with last session or start a new session. What is going on?

It only happens if I try to use google images with firefox. I've now narrowed it down to an extension, AVG SafeSearch, doesn't happen if I disable this.

Image Capture application keeps "losing" my device

Image Capture was telling me that there wasn't a scanner or camera connected. I use an HP Photosmart C4680. The printer aspect has been fine since upgrading to SL. I inserted my SL disk. Opened Optional Installs. Went through the prompts etc. and selected to install the Printer Support. Ejected the disk. Restarted computer. Opened Image Capture and device was listed on left side margin and test worked perfectly.
The problem now is that every 12-24 hours the device disappears again from Image Capture.
Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas how to permanently correct it?

Similar problem with Lexmark X4550.
Printing fine whether or not Image capture recognises the scanner.
Open image capture no scanner listed (ipod and phone are listed).
Unplug USB and pug in - scanner appears and works (there is a bug where the rotation correction is not supported and the scan fails)
Quit image capture and re-launch image Image capture scanner is "lost" (ipod and phone appear as before). Unplug and plug in USB cable and scanner re-appears.
Anyone have any suggestions as how I can make Image capture "remember" I have a scanner attached.
I'm using the bundled Lexmark driver with SL.
Cheers

Time Machine Question (want to keep old back up and start a new one)

Hello
I have a MacBook Pro that I back up using Time Machine to a Segate External Harddrive. I have several weeks worth of back ups stored using Time Machine. Then I needed to have my system wiped clean due to overheating. I just got it back and I have been working to restore my system (application by application.... folder by folder, file by file) from the most recent Time Machine.
However I didn't put it all back - I kind of picked and choose what I reinstalled.
I would like to set my MacBook Pro back up with Time Machine BUT I really really do not want to overwrite the old backups. In my ideal world I want to start a whole new set of backups. However I can't figure out how to do that.
I tried changing the name of the folders in Time Machine and that didn't work. I tried copying them, that didn't work either. It keeps telling me "The operation can’t be completed because it isn’t supported."
Is there any way to start a whole new time machine back up using the same external hard drive? This way I still have my old Time Machine Back ups should I need them (from my computer before we wiped it clean).
Thanks!
Alison

That's usually a recipe for disaster. You're likely to miss all sorts of things that way. Plus, if you have any "complex" apps (typically, the ones that come with their own installers and put other files on your system), they won't work properly, if at all, unless you also copy those files. Or reinstall them from the original discs.
Your best bet is to do a full system restore, then delete what you don't want.

Time Machine won't necessarily do that. But it will make a new full backup of the "new" drive (since it was erased, it's treated as a different drive). If there's not enough room for it, it will start deleting old backups trying to make room for the new one.
(That doesn't happen if you do a full system restore, or use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to put your data back.)
You can avoid that by manually telling Time Machine to "associate" the new drive with the old backups, per #B6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting. TM will then do an "incremental" backup, of just what's new or different from the last backup.
If you don't do that, you won't see the backups of the "old" drive normally, but you can via the procedure in #E3 of the same link.
In my ideal world I want to start a whole new set of backups. However I can't figure out how to do that.
If there's enough room on the backup disk, you don't need to.

Again, if there's room, you don't need to do that. If there isn't, you can't, short of using a different disk.
But if there's room, and you want to keep the old backups indefinitely, you might be able to create a second partition, and start backing-up to it. See #3 in Using Disk Utility.

Time Machine backup with MacBook Pro 10.7.5 and Seagate Backup Plus Drive?

Anyone have any suggestions for a successful backup using Seagate Time Machine Backup Plus 1TB hard drive and 10.7.5 MacBook Pro?

Is it something like this? If so, then it's likely already formatted for use with OS X - "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Just connect the drive, make sure that it mounts, and turn on and setup Time Machine in System Preferences.
The first backup may take awhile, but hourly backups should be quick. Don't worry about keeping the drive plugged into your Mac all of the time - when your on battery Time Machine will make local snapshots on your internal. Just plug it up when you're ready.
For a good introduction to Time Machine, see http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html.
Good luck,
Clinton

Keep losing my music and playlist

Any information? at all?

Please help the vids are about half a gig i just want to import them to ipod and remove from my hard drive knowing that next time i plug my ipod in to the computer it wont delete it cos it cant find it on my hard drive. Thanky u chaps x

When your iPod is connected open iTunes, click on
edit, then on prefences and click on the iPod tab
then click on music and choose the one that says
update selected playlists
Hi! I've got a similar problem with enough of a variation to ask further. I tried your suggestion to the above question, but suspect there is more going on. I have noticed many songs that I ripped off my CD's just vanish, although they are still listed in the iTunes library list. When I click on one of them I get an exclamation point symbol, and I've tried locating the songs in the iTunes folder on my c:\ but its no longer there. I suspect the iTunes program is telling me something about my music tastes! Can you help? Thanks!
