Maverick issues forcing change over to Lion or back to a Windows Server!

With all of the Maverick problems that we are having running against the Adobe CC design suite we are thinking about installing a new OSX Lion server in its place. Has anyone switched out their Maverick for Lion and fixed the probs?  We are running on the Mac Mini platform. Adobe CC continues to have layer issues with some graphics files. We now only work on the desktop and not actively connected to the MacMini server running Maverick 10.9.2. Mac now has 10.9.3 in beta with developers but we just dont know if we want to wait and hope that they fix all of the issues that Adobe is having with the Maverick operating system. The funny thing and ironic thing about our situation is that the MacMini server took over for a Windows 2003 server that never had ANY issues with Adobe CC or CS6. As soon as we switched we started having multiple issues forcing us to change how we do everything. Now it is either back to a Windows server or a OSX Lion replacement as we have heard that Lion had none of these issues.
<Email Edited by Host>

THIS PROBLEM IS SOLVED!!!!
We bought another Mac Mini server and loaded it with OS 10.8.5 Mountain Lion with Apple server 2.2 and all of our corruption issues went away. The weird thing is that files cleared up right before our eyes even those that we thought were permanently corrupt. We have been running for a solid week now with no issues. If you are having similar issues this is the way to go. The only problem you may have is with Apple as they did not make it easy for us to obtain the software and a valid key to install it. It seems if they start an issue, with a bad OS, they need to provide better customer service for those who want to step back. This would be considered customer service 101 and greatly appreciated by a loyal customer base.

  • My mac is running so bad since I changed over to Lion

    Hi all,
               Since I up-graded my software to Lion I must say my Mac has never run sooo badly .It takes longer to open and close and it keeps booting up programes from my last session even though I have started closing everything down before I close up.I am very dissapointed and am sorry I ever changed over,is anyone else finding this ?

    Yes, lots of people. There are numerous threads reporting similar problems on this forum.
    As for system slow down, a couple of things to do:
    i. repair permissions (Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.app)
    ii. Check your login items and remove anything unnecessary (System Prefs > Users & Groups > Login Items
    iii. Upgrade your RAM
    As for Lion OS X re-opening your last session this is, as they say, "a feature not a bug"! However, if you want to disable this annoying 'feature' I've summarized the process here.

  • How to add a cloud machine as a node to existing windows fail over cluster having on-premise node in Windows server 2008 R2

    Hi All,
    We have a windows fail over cluster having one windows machine on local network as one of its node.
    I want to add a virtual cloud machine available on microsoft azure as another node to this existing cluster.
    Please suggest how to do this?
    Thanking all in advance,
    Raghvendra

    Before you even start working on the SQL side, you will need to create a Windows Server 2008 R2 cluster with no shared storage.  You can actually test that in-house.  Create a VM running 2008 R2 and cluster it with your physical (from your description,
    I am assuming physical) 2008 R2 machine. Create it with a file share witness for quorum. Then configure your environment to see that it works as expected.
    Once you know how to configure the cluster between physical and VM with a file share witness, build it to Azure.  The location of the FSW gets to be an interesting choice.  To have a FSW in Azure means that you will need another VM in Azure to
    host the file share, meaning you have two quorum votes in Azure and one in-house.  Or, you could create a file share witness on an in-house system, giving you two quorum votes in-house and one in Azure.
    In the FSW in Azure scenario, if you have a loss of the in-house server, automatic failover occurs because two quorum votes exist in Azure.  With FSW in-house, depending on the loss you have in-house, you might have to force quorum to get the Azure
    single-node cluster to run.  Loss of access to Azure reverses those scenarios.  Neither one is optimal, but it does provide some level of recoverability.

  • Apple forcing change to Mountain Lion by producing poor updates for other OS versions?

    I've been holding off on 10.7.5 and I don't want to go to Mountain Lion. I wonder if Apple really cares about supporting the older OS versions by producing updates that don't result in all the apparent problems people are facing with the 10.7.5 update for example. Not even considering the issues that many seem to be having with ML upgrades.

    It's important to remember that these forums are for people with problems, and as such, They are not accurate indicators of real world issues.
    Millions of people are using Lion and Mountain Lion with no issues, they won't be using these forums.
    Personally, I've used and installed Lion and Mountain Lion on three different Macs in my household, MacMini 3.1, MacBook Pro 3.1, and a MacBook Air 1.1 (limited to Lion), and have had no serious problems with them.
    The best course of action is to always have a backup of your current partition before upgrading to Lion or Mountain Lion. In fact, you should have a backup even if you're not planning on upgrading.
    Personally, I use Carbon Copy Cloner and SuperDuper for backup purposes on lieu of Time Machine. I like the advantage of having a cloned, bootable partition.
    Also, IMHO, Mountain Lion is an improvement over Lion. It smoothed out the rough edges of Lion.
    Lion is no longer available from the App Store unless you phone Apple at 1-800-My-Apple to get an autorization code. But, since you don't need Lion to upgrade to Mountain Lion, I'd recommend skipping Lion, if you can.

  • After installing Mountain Lion, able to connect to Windows Server, but no files are showing up.  What's up with that?

    I've upgraded to Mountain Lion, and since then I have not been able to view folders on a networked server.  Only thing that appears is a folder labeled "/".  Error message comes up whenever it is selected.  This was working with no issues just prior to the upgrade.  Any ideas?

    Exactly the same issue for me.

  • Network printer issue - User can't print once logged back in. Windows 7

    Hello
    I have a bit of a mystery. We have a networked printer which everyone can printer to a part from one user.  When you try printing from any application the "print" gets sent then nothing, not even in the print queue.
    However in the same office everyone else can print.
    I have tried the following.  
    Made sure the printer is set to default.
    Sign in as Admin - I can print
    Other users - Can print
    Removed the device in the users profile re-added the device user can print.
    But when the user logs out and logs back in they can't print.
    Restarted print spooler. - No luck.
    No errors and printer always showing online.
    Any help/suggestion would be appreciated.
    Windows 7 machine 
    Thank you
    Adam

    1. Have you used the printui.exe tool to remove the print drivers? 2. If you sign the user to other machine can he print there? 3. Have you tried to recreate the user profile on that machine?

  • Mac Backup on Windows Server (Wildcard issues)

    So our Art department is suppose to be backing up all files to a Windows Server. Which brings this problem. Of course being designers we use wildcard symbols on naming files which the windows server won't allow. So when we attempt to backup, the copying of files stops because of wildcards in certain file names.
    Now we would just go back and go through all the files and fix the wildcards... but this would take years and time is not on our side. Now we have adopted the practice of not using wildcard symbols now but we still have a large back catalog of files that still use them.
    Is there some type of Windows side server script that addresses this issue which makes the use of wildcards possible on the windows server?
    Or am I out of luck? I would think someone has a fix for this or something?
    Thanks,
    adam

    I would archive the files on the Mac first (into a .tar, .zip, etc. archive), and copy a single archive to the server that has no file naming issues. At least, that is the free way of doing things

  • "Mouse Over" issues in Logic Pro - Mountain Lion

    Hi,
    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I spotted an issue with Logic Pro (Logic 9).
    In the Arrange window, when pointing the mouse at the end of a region, the pointer icon doesn't change to the looping (upper right corner of the region) or resize (lower right corner) icon.
    As a result, those functionalities (looping and resizing regions) are gone.
    Anyone having the same issue?
    Is there a way to solve this or do we need to wait for a Logic Pro update to get these back?
    Thanks in advance,
    A nice day everyone,
    Vince

    No problem, as a professional musician using Logic I learned that lesson the hard way first time around. Hard as it was to not have the toys I soon learned that stability ruled the day....

  • Have just down loaded Yosemite over Mountain Lion, Indesign CS5 does not work ( Am dependant on it) although Bridge , Light Room and Elements operate OK How do I solve this rapidly. Can any one help on this issue. Thanks

    Have just down loaded Yosemite over Mountain Lion, Indesign CS5 does not work ( Am dependant on it) although Bridge , Light Room and Elements operate OK How do I solve this rapidly. Can any one help on this issue. Thanks

    Sorry to say it, but I think you can see from Bob's response that there's no way to solve this rapidly.
    Did you take an image of your Mountain Lion install before upgrading to Yosemite? Roll back to that. If you're not in the habit of taking a snapshot of your system before performing operating system upgrades - get in that habit. If you are dependent on anything at all on hour computer, having a reliable backup method in place is essential. If you don't have a Time Capsule, or some other way to run Time Machine onto a disk that's not in your computer, go set that up yesterday.
    If you can't just remove Yosemite and roll back to Mountain Lion for whatever reason, you can partition your drive so that you can install both Yosemite and Mountain Lion on the same drive, and then boot into Mountain Lion when you need to work in CS5. Or you can take your Mountain Lion disc (I assume you have one, no?) and then use it to create a virtual machine in something like VirtualBox to run Mountain Lion from inside Yosemite.

  • Since changing over to Mountain Lion I discover that I am no longer able to adjust spaces between lines. If I choose spacing of 1.3 after two lines single-spaced, the entire previous lines end up with 1.3 spacing. What am I missing?

    Do those previous lines have a Return/Linefeed after them, or are they just wrapped to a new line?

  • Installing Mavericks over Mountain Lion

    I try to install Mavericks over Mountain Lion but keep getting this message: Unapproved caller, securityagent may only be invoked by Apple software.
    Now I am stocked and cannot do anything :-(
    Any suggestions?

    Dang! that was so NOT cool. Same thing happened to me and feel lucky to have found this thread.
    I was stuck in a loop of that dialog popping up saying "Unapproved Caller". I tried clicking OK repeatedly and it still kept popping up.
    Seeing the comment about Safe Mode, I took the gamble and held the power switch on my 27" iMac until it powered off, waited a moment, then pushed the power button again and as soon as the chime sound happened, held Shift key to boot in Safe Mode and that worked just like it did for @Bart2904.
    How in the world would an average user know how to recover from such a situation - it would be bricked computer and a trip to Genius bar. Again, not cool.

  • Pages5.1+Mavericks = issues with margins, attaching, transport, pictures, printing, more.

    Got Mac Mini with Mountain Lion  ; the GOALS for this computer:
    Writing for publication, filling out forms, sending data, photo editing and adjustments, artwork, tasks, email, online consulting, volunteer advocacy, research, etc.
    Was beginning to get the hang of things, with some difficulties;but was not finding what I needed.
    Unknowingly took bad advice: updated to Mavericks.
    Everything FUBAR'd. 
    Straightened some things out; at least can access email, get online, do a few things--still can't do meaningful work on it.
    Mini = very expensive Entertainment Box; NOT my priority.
    I Thought: download programs that can do work.
    Got Pages 5.1.  It fails to work right:
    Margins refuse to adjust. 
    Pictures pasted into Pages document, very hard to adjust on page or get type to wrap around picture, adjust sizing, etc.--time wasting, unable to adjust as wanted on pages--settled for what it would do at all. 
    Page Setup is hardly relevant to actually setting up a Page.
    Won't attach to Email.
    Won't allow reading it anywhere but on the computer it was made.
    Won't allow saving Pages nor Text documents using ANY other extensions.
    Saving is a contorted mouse-hunt; there's no "save-as". 
    For one typed page, a box told me there was HTML in the thing, and that it couldn't deal with it, even though there wasn't.
    Pages document Won't save properly to a Pendrive for transport: it reads OK on the MAc, but on the PC, only 1st page visible, the rest unitelligible, pixelated, when moved to a PC. 
    I thought to transport the Pages document to the PC to copy/paste it into a Owrd Document--THAT failed, too.
    Trying to print this Pages document turned into a nightmare: 1st page almost printed, ensuing pages resembled NOTHING I'd saved; a 10-page Pages document turned into many more pages of garbled mess. 
    I haven't had time to try other features; just making a pretty basic Pages document has been a wicked time-waster.
    There doesn't seem to be ANY work-around.
    I Thought: copy/paste the content of the Pages document, into a Text document: THAT FAILED.
    Copy/Pasting one page at a time for this maneuver, also failed: 
    Pictures [.jpg] turn fuzzy and HUGE, and refuse adjustment in any way I can find. 
    Pictures refuse to adjust Easily, whether Pages or Text--couldn't make pictures in Text adjust at all.
    Very UNimpressed with the picture editing on this Mac, to date.
    Having terrible time doing ANYthing to adjust .jpg's in any document--forget putting photos in emails.
    "Help" has been fairly useless; tutorials instruct to do things the programs won't do, or has no suggestion. 
    Pages is Useless, if it only allows making a basic document that's ONLY visible or minimally usable on the unit it got made on.
    Feartures hark back to antique MS Word, like having to go up to Edit in order to copy/paste [as in this message], instead of being able to use Mouse to copy/paste directly in document, for instance. 
    This computer refuses to allow printing via ethernet or hardwire; Mini sees there's a printer, but can't print, thinks it's not on, or some unknown blockage.
    Uninstalled printer, tried to reinstall, Mini refuses to allow reinstall; can't auto-find printer, refuses manual entry of information.
    This Mac nearly choked/crashed after updated to Mavericks, in many ways.
    MAYBE all this is really yet more Mavericks issues? ?
    I paid dearly to get a computer that SHOULD have been Stably ready to roll; instead, it's caused about 3+ months worth of time-wasting.
    This fails as a reliable, stable WORK unit.   
    Getting vetted, stable software should be easy, but it isn't. 
    ALL the problems APPEAR to be software issues. 
    This isn't just a Learning Curve, this is diabolical Sudoku gone horribly wrong!
    Microsoft historically, repeatedly, rushed unstable, incomaptible software to users before de-bugging/de-glitching, or issues incomplete licenses to ancillary programs making htem disfunctional:  it's what I've hated MOST about PC's. 
    IMHO, the contract that conjoined Mac with Microsoft seems to have caused Macs to take on the worst of PC habits. 
    This MacMess is turning my brain to mush!  Where do I send a BILL to Apple for premature onset of Dementia / Stressed-Brain injuries + Time Lost, related to bad computer software?! 
    At this rate, I'll never finish a book for publication anywhere, and must fall back on hand-writing forms and reports. 

    Thanks Peter--it is what I thought [return to Mountain Lion].
    Chi
    PS:  Contracts between Microsoft and Apple can be Googled; numerous things come up; could start here: 
    http://www.roughlydrafted.com/RD/RDM.Tech.Q1.07/592FE887-5CA1-4F30-BD62-407362B5 33B9.html
    It continued, with variations, later dates.
    Using "conjoined" was perhaps, not exactly the correct term.  But that contract changed how Macs operated; dependability has, IMHO [and others], declined, while PC's have gained some bits of dependability.
    Macs subsequently started using other processors, instead of Apple hardware--[not knowing how that might change things].
    There's been more of Apple rushing software to users prematurely; always a badly played Microsoft trick, for instance. 
    It has some hints that MS and Apple are becoming more homogenous; that would be sad. It will take longer than this, to accomplish; but this kind of contracts between industry giants, often portend that sort of merge at later date, done in a step-wise manner.  These kinds of things can take years longer than this; meanwhile, users deal with bad products.

    I bought my iMac from someone. Everything was changed over to my name however when I try to update programs it only shows the old users apple ID and I can't update. How do I change this so I can update the applications and have everything fully under me?

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    3. Other issues
    If you see a lock screen when trying to boot from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
    When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information.

  • CHANGE OVER FROM TAXINJ TO TAXINN

    HI ALL ,
    TAXINJ and TAXINN cannot co exist in the same system.
    If you are talking about technical Upgrade, then I don't think this would be feasible since old Txn would have got posted with TAXINJ procedure with rates as defined in Tax codes and now after migration to TAXINN in same box, the system would pick value from Condition records.
    Just check this basic point of feasibility before we go ahead and look for changes.
    In SuN the change is for existing implementation, here at present they have R/3 4.7, and  are now in the process of technical upgrade to ECC 6.00; TAXINN is required to be implemented in the upgraded version.
    At present they are using around 129 pricing procedures, 25 sales org,220 tax codes in TAXINJ. Suzlon has 21 company codes, 219 plants and 1300 end users the whole nature of group activities results in use of all possible types of indirect taxes in India like VAT, CST, Excise, Service Tax etc...
    i have tried to search on sap help, service market place and others but could not come across any document for the change over. However i will try again.
    what are the things i need to take care before any implications busisneww point of view, what will be the status of  open sales order and purchase orders, and  splitting delivery docs. which are under process, what will be the cutoverstrategy.
    need ur help and guidance, thanks in advance.
    We are migrating from 4.7 to ECC 6.00 ( technical upgrade only), at the same time we will shift from TAXINJ to TAXINN,please let us know the steps requred to do this activity.

    Hi
    Vasu Sri,
    I got this document from some body might help u a bit.
    Condition-Based Excise Determination in MM (New)
    As of SAP R/3 Enterprise Core 4.70 (SAP_APPL 470), the system can calculate excise duties
    and sales tax in Materials Management (MM) using the standard condition technique.
    SAP has enhanced the existing tax procedure, TAXINJ, so that it now supports formula-based
    and condition-based excise determination. The R/3 System also comes with a new tax procedure,
    TAXINN, which only handles condition-based excise determination.
    Which Tax Procedure Must I Use?
    Existing customers must continue to work using the same tax procedure.
    If you switch to a new tax procedure, you cannot display any documents that you have already
    posted using the old tax procedure.
    If you have worked with formula-based excise determination in previous releases and wish to
    continue, you do not have to do anything. However, if you wish to start using the
    condition-based excise determination method, proceed as specified below.
    We recommend that new customers use the condition-based excise determination and tax
    procedure TAXINN.
    <b>How Do the New Functions Work?</b>
    First, customize the system in the activities listed below. Then, for each material, create one
    condition record for each form of excise duty and sales tax that applies, and enter the tax code
    for purchasing documents (see below) in every condition record.
    When you come to create a purchase order, enter the tax code in each line item. The tax code
    tells the system whether to look in the condition types for formula-based or condition-based
    excise determination
    To set up the new excise determination method, carry out the following activities:
    IMG activity
    What to do
    Check Calculation Procedure
    Existing customers: Adjust your tax procedure to
    match the changes to TAXINJ. Steps 560-583 are new, as are 593-598.
    New customers: Create a copy of TAXINN.
    Select Tax Calculation Procedure
    New customers only: Assign the copy of
    TAXINN to India.
    Maintain Excise Defaults
    New customers only: Enter the condition type
    that you use for countervailing duty.
    Define Tax Code for Purchasing Documents
    Define a tax code.
    Assign Tax Code to Company Codes
    Assign the tax code to the company codes that it
    is relevant for.
    Classify Condition Types
    Specify which condition types you want to use
    for condition-based excise determination.
    Define Tax Accounts
    Check which G/L accounts the various taxes will
    be posted to. Define G/L accounts for the account keys used in the tax procedure

    You can continue to calculate taxes using the former method: when the system processes the tax
    procedure assigned to the country (TAXBRJ), it calculates the taxes externally by calling
    function module J_1BCALCULATE_TAXES. We do, however, recommend that you assign the
    new procedure TAXBRC and use the condition-based tax calculation functions, as it enables you
    to flexibly adapt the tax calculation logic to cover new legal requirements or special customer
    needs.
    You will need to migrate your existing tax rate table entries to condition records, which you
    can do directly from the Tax Manager's Workplace described below. You can check all tables
    and subsequently convert the entries, whereby the system generates condition records. After the
    initial migration, each time you create or change a tax rate table entry, the system automatically
    generates a condition record as needed.
    Auswirkungen auf das Customizing
    If you want to employ the new condition-based tax calculation, you need to activate it and
    carry out all related Customizing activities, under Financial Accounting -> Financial
    Accounting Global Settings -> Tax on Sales/Purchases -> Basic Settings -> Brazil
    -> Condition-Based Tax Calculation, all of which are new:
    o
    Activate Condition-Based Tax Calculation
    o
    Map MM Tax Values to Nota Fiscal Fields
    o
    Map SD Tax Values to Nota Fiscal Fields
    o
    Map MM Tax Laws to Nota Fiscal Fields
    o
    Define Internal Codes for Tax Conditions
    o
    Assign Internal Codes for Tax Conditions to Condtion Types
    o
    Assign Tax Rate Tables to Condition Tables
    In addition, you need to assign the new tax calculation procedure TAXBRC to the country in
    Customizing, under Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings ->
    Tax on Sales/Purchases -> Basic Settings -> Assign Country to Calculation Procedure.
    A new Customizing tool called the Tax Manager's Workplace is available that enables you to

    make all tax-related settings for Brazil. You access it under the same path as above through
    Tax on Sales/Purchases, then Calculation -> Settings for Tax Calculation in Brazil ->
    Access Tax Manager's Workplace, or alternatively by entering transaction J1BTAX. You can
    use the Tax Manager's Workplace regardless if you use condition-based tax calculation; it
    simply brings all tax activities to a single transaction (only the Migration, Nota-Fiscal Mapping,
    and Condition Mapping options under the Condition Setup pulldown menu are relevant only for
    condition-based tax calculation).

    Just upgraded to OSX 10.9 mavericks on macbook pro mid 2011 version. Having a big issue here that whenever my mac comes back from sleep, i.e after I open the lid, the screen flickers and there is an error of Finder not opening properly. Any fix to this?

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!
