Major issues with iLife and iChat since upgrade to 8.2

Since upgrading to iTunes 8.2, I have not been able to use iChat, iPhoto or iMovie regardless of whether or not iTunes is running. iChat boots and then crashes. At first, it only affected iChat itself but now its taking down my whole system. iPhoto has dumped half of my pictures and will not reload them even though the files still exist and open in Preview. iMovie also will not load.
I have tried to use the last update of iLife 08 (8.3) to fix any errors iTunes may have caused, but when I did so, I received an error message saying that I should reload iLife. ((I have no idea how I'm supposed to do that - it came pre-installed!)) I don't know what else to try, please help.

I figured it out.
Make certain all your devices are using the same Apple ID for iMessage. I have 2 IDs, and was signed in on different addresses.
You can do this in settings.

  • MAJOR issues with Safari in Leopard since 10.5.1 update

    Not sure what the heck is going on with Safari in Leopard since the 10.5.1 update, but for the first time in a long time I've had to put Firefox back in my dock to get a satisfactory web surfing experience.
    Using Safari, most page loads don't ever complete (blue bar gets half or two thirds across and hangs), and randomly addresses will become unusable -- i.e., a reliable address like apple.com won't load anymore and I get the "server not responding" error, yet it works perfectly fine in Firefox. Restarting the computer sometimes will fix the problem for that particular address, but other addresses will experience the same behavior.
    I have no third party extensions installed (never have) -- don't even have the "Input Managers" folders that others have written about in these forums.
    Repaired permissions, still no love.
    If anyone has any ideas, would love to hear them -- otherwise I'm going to have to stick with Firefox until Apple can get this straightened out.

    If you are updating Safari (or just have):
    Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
    So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 uses Safari 3.0.4 which is not a beta. If Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
    Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 2 when running 10.4.11 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.0.4 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard widgets etc also rely.
    Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for Safari 3.0.4.
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11 or Leopard, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2007-009.1.1, which also deals with the Quicktime/Flash issues you may have experienced, as well as the latest Java update.
    Also try this:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Repair permissions.
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:

  • Issue with automated Mail attachments since upgrade to OS X 10.6.4

    Hello
    I use several automator actions that create a new e-Mail with specific recipients and a prewritten text and a finder dialog that opens up and lets me chose the files to be attached to the e-Mail created by automator.
    Since I upgraded to OS X 10.6.4 the attachment opened through the automator action blacks out the whole e-Mail (see picture here http://idisk.me.com/tburkart/Public/Pictures/Skitch/Neue_E-Mail-20100628-111438. jpg )
    Any suggestions what may cause this issue?

    It is a bug of Safari 5 (better said of WebKt)
    See this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2453797&tstart=0
    There you will find workaround by using a 3rd party application
    There are other workarounds like using the Perl module sendEmail or 3rd party osax XMail
    Or simply convert the outgoing email to plain text before sending it

  • First project in CS4 and major issues with preview and such.....experienced with all previous PPRO v

    So to sum it up, I have been working in Premiere since version 4.2. I am familiar with program.
    I decided to test CS4 on a simple project, as I usually work on complex HD videos. I captured a friends wedding, shot by someone else (uncle or aunt) in DV mode. I open a CS4 project in DV NTSC 720x480 and import my clip. This should be a simple edit.
    I drag clips to the timeline and do some very basic dissolves in and out to smooth out the rough cuts of the camera operator. So far so good. I am previewing the video out on my second monitor which happens to be an HDTV via the premiere playback to secondary monitor feature.
    I drag a color correction filter onto a clip and "wham" the preview goes away. Then I turn the effect off and it comes back. When I scrub the timeline, all I see is the first frame of that clip all the way through. It's stuck. I have to build a preview to get it to play. In addition, I cannot see a preview of anything when I am makijng color adjustments except in the small monitor window of Premiere. This is basic editing 101....never had to give it a though before and now basic functionality is going haywire. Ofte images are all negative looking too.
    So I started a new project in HD and setup to preview to second monitor. I created a simple title and dragged it to the timeline. It won't preview to the second monitor at all. A simple title. Only in the little premiere monitor. Then I import a jpg....same thing. I have to build a preview to see anything....
    Then....I have these 2 clips on the timeline, a premiere title butted up against a jpg. With no effects, it now will not even show the title anywhere. During the five seconds of the title, I see the jpg (which is coming up next, but in a negative mode...you know reversed out basically) then when it gets to the jpg it shows. If I change the size of anything....it stops working again until I render.....
    I have to say that in the 45 minutes that I have been trying Cs4, it has behaved so strangely it is scaring me. CS3 has it's quirks but they typically present themselves in huge projects, not brand new ones with 2 clips in them, neither of these are even HD video! Just a title and a jpg.
    Any ideas? I have CS3 production Suite running great. Hopefully I missed a simple new setting or something. Yeah...right.
    Intel Q6600
    4GB Ram
    Nvidia 7950
    2 Terabytes of Raid Drives
    Sound Blaster Audigy Card
    My system is not slow by any means.....
    thanks.

    Jim,
    I have accomplished this with an ATI card also, so it can be done. I am not sure what you are trying to imply. It absolutely works. If you are implying that simply because it doesn't blank the screen out when no video is being played that it is not a true output you are wrong. Are there better more color accurate ways to do this? Sure....for thousands of dollars for SDI or HDMI cards then production grade LCDs I'm sure it could work better.
    My video card outputs a 1920x1080 signal to my HDTV....that I calibrate to the best of its ability considering it is not a production monitor. When in Premiere I get full high res 1920x1080 HD video playing on this monitor looking darn close to what it will look like when rendered to Blu-ray, whereas the image on my awsome 30" Dell LCD is not accurate at all. I mean it looks clean and awesome but is not very close to an HDTV colorwise.
    This absolutely works. As good as it is, it is not as accurate as dedicated equipment and color production monitors.
    To be clear, it is an extension of the desktop, and premiere is able to display the entire resolution of the video over the entire thing.

  • Issue with Apple ID account since upgrading iPhone to iOS5

    When I origanaly set up my Apple ID account I linked it to my gemail address. When I was setting up iOS5 on my iPhone 4 it seems to have tried to transfer the ID to my mac.com email address.
    The problem now is that my MacBook still sees the gmail address as the linked address but my phone thinks its the mac.com account. As a result if a install a new app from the App store directly on my phone then sync with my MacBook, itunes thinks it is from a different account and will not copy the new App over claiming that it is not authorised for this account. If I then re-download the App on my MacBook and then re-synce the error message goes away.
    Also I have noticed that if I go into the iTunes menuing system both the 'Authorise this computer' & the 'De-Authorise this Computer' are highlighted in black. If there was only one account set up surely one or the other would be grayed out.
    This makes me think that somewhere on my setup it thinks there a 2 accounts to the same Apple ID.
    My question is could I be right in thinking this and if so how do I delete one of the two email addresses from the ID and mirge all my Apps  onto the remaining email address ?

    Hi a couple of questions to start:
    1. Do you have an Apple ID? If not it is a good idea to create one so that you can use iCloud - here's a link for creating and Apple ID: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId
    2. Also what settings do you have on your iPhone in iCloud? Is anything entered?
    Thanks

  • I have an mcc issue with my canon printer since upgrading to OS Maverick

    is there a software update for this?

    My Canon iSensys MF4660PL wouldn't talk to my MBP after Mavericks installed, just after it was released; Canon were no help, basically saying it was an old printer.....So I reverted back to Mountain Lion and all was OK.
    Whilst footling around round the Canon support website yesterday (the UK one) I noticed that the printer driver now included OSx 10.9. So I downloaded and installed this: printer still working (the printer is networked to the router and thence wifi to household devices)   Then downloaded and installed Mavericks and....printer wasn't working. Reinstalled the latest Canon printer driver, still not working. I sulked and went for lunch.
    Now I am not sure why I did this, but I deleted the printer from the Printer Scanner Control panel and then added it back in. Tried a test print and it whirred into life.....printing rubbish! Progress! I then removed it and added it again, this time choosing the correct printer from the drop down list in the "Use" box as opposed to the wrong one...durr...and....success!!
    SO dwb's advice seems the way to go.
    Yosemite looms......

  • Since updating to iOS 7.1,  having issues with safari and wi-fi...

    Since upgrading to iOS 7.1, I have experienced issues with wifi and safari. Many websites will not load and I receive the message that "Safari cannot open the page as the server cannot be found". This only happens with the iPad (iPhone 5 is fine), and the same problems do not exist when using 3G (cellular). I have tried a reset, renewing the lease, forgetting the network, rebooting, resetting the modem... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Major CalDav and Syncing Issues with Ical and Address Book

    As a CEO and business owner - I loved the move over to Mac after the intel chip as installed.  Yet, the issue of working on a Mac for business comes down to the operating system.  Up to Snow Leopard I was very pleased.... since Lion it has gone downhill.   I upgraded to Mountain Lion and many of the issues with speed and problems with mail were addressed.  Yet, it appears Apple has made a bad decision with regard to synciing to other programs.
    I was told it has cut out syncing capablities for Address book and Ical (I assume other programs).  This has caused great issues for The Omni Group, File Maker and Market Cirlce (creators of Daylite) and a lot of angst for me as a business owner!
    To top this off - it appears CalDav is not bi-directional and has issues.  In other words, it does not work as it should. 
    I am not sure what Apple was thining when it stopped allowing internal sync between programs. Yet, CalDav and CardDav are not always the answers!
    I hope the CalDav issues are being cleaned up and if anyone from Apple wishes to comment on this I would appreciate it.  I have tried to talk to support but the powers to be are the ones calling the shots on software design.  Support can't fix what is broken the program.
    Again, I hope Apple revisits syncing.  Maybe the concern is security but it is MY DATA not yours.  I just want the programs to work so I can make sales and support my customers efficiently.   You have made it hard to do this with changes.
    David

    As an IT consultant,  i'm in agreement with Mr Utts.    The promise of "it just works" died with Steve Jobs.   Mac OS has been in freefall since 10.5 .    I need a fully functional OS,  not an iPad on my desk.  ( this means YOU Forstall !! )
    Why break Samba ( a standard ),  why break WebDAV ( a standard ), why break CalDAV ( a standard )??    Apple has done ALL of these things and they seem to be doing it on purpose.
    The Apple "ecosystem" is just fine,  but removing functionality as fast as you can, and removing interoperablity as fast as you can...  if Apple products ONLY work within the ecosystem... people can and will leave Apple.    You've already run off the business users by refusing to make a real Server or real Server software.   You ran off the video user with Final Cut Pro X.   Dumbing down (and breaking) the OS is running off the IT User.
    Mac OS used to easily walk the line of "hard core enough for a Unix Guru,  easy enough for your Mom".  Now they just want the Moms.
    And i disagree,  we are ALL "qualified to say what Apple might do about this...",  they will do nothing.   They don't beleive they have made a mistake.  They beleive WE are the problem by stubbornly insisting that things that used to work should continue to work.

    Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
    Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
    I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
    Thanks for the advice, Bee

  • Having major issues with InDesign CS6. will upgrade fix???

    Having major issues with InDesign CS6. Not only is it crashing, but it is corrupting the existing file.  Then when I relaunch, it is not allowing me to open the file again.
    In another instance, yesterday I opened an file created 3 months ago and it allowed me to make changes, however I could not save them to the existing file, or not even to a new name.
    I had to copy each layer on each page to create a new document.  NOT GOOD!!!  Just saw that ADOBE has an update for InDesign.  WILL THIS FIX THE PROBLEM??

    Yes, I would certainly get the latest update. That we often solve issues like these, for this is not normal. Some further tips would be quite InDesign, then to trash your InDesign preferences and then re-start InDesign (it will rebuild them again). Some further areas to look into would be:
    * Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
    * Corrupt Image(s)
    * Power Failures (power surges)
    * Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
    * Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
    If all else fails, we as Markzware (I work for them) also offer a Service to fix corrupt InDesign documents. See:

    Apple recommend calibrating the battery when you buy a new Macbook and then every few months, or monthly if it used on mains all the time. This, as Apple says is to keep the battery operating at maximum efficiency. When the battery discharges and shuts the macbook down, it still has reserve power for a good number of hours. There is also a logic board battery to hold various settings.
    I rather think I will take Apples advice on using their equipment not yours, but I would be intrigued to discover what is it you know that Apple doesnt about its batteries?
