Menubar won't redraw with yosemite mirrored displays

Anyone know why my menubar won't redraw now that I've upgraded my MacPro (Early 2008) to Yosemite? The 10.10.1 update didn't help either. The menu bar will stay on System Preferences (and the rest of its menu titles) when you turn-on mirrored displays. There are 2 stock dual-display cards for a total of 4: 2 LCDs and 2 projectors. Turning mirroring off lets the menubar work correctly. Turning it on, as if from the Display Menu, freezes the menubar of whatever app was active at the time. The menus themselves work properly...you just have to guess what and where the real menu titles are...so it appears to be a purely cosmetic problem. BTW, it is not using dark mode.

BTW, I have installed all updates (to 10.10.3) and this issue is still not resolved.

Iphoto 9.6 won't run with Yosemite 10.10.1

I'm running a mid 2011 Macbook Pro with Yosemite 10.10.1 and iPhoto 9.6. After upgrading OS to 10.10.1 yesterday, iPhoto won't completely load. The software opens but the "death spiral" icon just keeps spinning, and my photo library won't load. Any suggestions to fix it?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Peripherals won't work with Yosemite

I switched to Yosemite in autumn 2014 and it worked. Since I moved house and reassembled my Mac Pro and all its peripherals I've had problems. Both of my Apple USB keyboards now won't work. They each have the same problem - when plugged in they show the cap locks green light but nothing else. My Logitech wireless mouse no longer works, yet the Mighty Mouse does. Most frustratingly, my WD Passport external hard drive with my Time Machine on it, is no longer recognised. I have searched the Internet and there seem to be literally hundreds of people who are suffering a variety of frustrations from Yosemite. I've tried a few of the 'solutions' based on the 'turn it off and turn it back on again' theme, all to no avail. Having bought Macs since the early 1990s, I've always championed their simplicity and reliability. My patience is being sorely tested by Yosemite. A cheap PC with the new Windows operating system is beginning to look like an attractive alternative, especially now that Yosemite is looking like Apple's version of "Vista".
Any helpful ideas would be very welcome.

Please post in the Yosemite support forum for issues with Yosemite. The link is here.......OS X Yosemite

My midi/audio interface Edirol PCR 1 won't work with Yosemite and Roland have no driver update. Is this the end of the line for this device.

My midi/audio interface ( Edirol PCR1) will not interface with Yosemite 10.10 and Roland have no driver update, is there any fix for the problem or is the end of the line for this device.

Same problem here, what a shame as this has been my favorite portable keyboard for ages. Whenever I see one in a store(very rarely) I'll grab it.

HP scanner won't work with Yosemite

I can't use my scanner (HP Deskjet F380 All-in-One) now that I have Yosemite. I looked for the HP driver, but it doesn't exist for OS X 10.10.1 I need help, please.

Have you tried using Image Capture that comes with Yosemite. I had a similar problem after the upgrade and my HP was no longer supported. I switched to Image Capture and it works fine, lacks some features that the HP software provided but overall it works for my needs.

New Mac Pro Won't Work With Old Studio Display

Hi,
Just got a new Mac Pro Desktop 8-core only to find out my old Apple Studio Display 17" won't work without a $100 adapter. We're thinking of just buying a new monitor instead. My question is will other brands now work direclty with the new Macs - or would they also need adapters? Is a DVI port the same as a DVI-D port?
Thanks for any info...

Thanks so much for the response, Malcolm, I really appreciate it! My old monitor is an LCD, but what we decided to do is since the adapter we found (and HAD to get from Apple directly) was going to cost $99!! We went and bought a brand new Dell monitor instead for $238 - it's fully compatible with the new Mac, and it's 23" (my old one was a 17") - so all's good!
Thanks again,
Jacki

LG TV as a Monitor - Problem with not Mirroring Display

I used to be able to extend to my LG TV and use that as an additional monitor side by side with my Macbook Pro 17" but now it only allows me to mirror. What has changed. I have tried different HDMI cables.

Mirrored mode mirrors the display including resolution. Use extended mode not mirrored mode to set the external display resolution to the TV's native mode.

Keynote 6.5.2 update won't open with Yosemite 10.10.2

Keynote 6.5 won't open even though I've updated it from 6.2.2. My OS X version is Yosemite 10.10.2. I get the error: Install the latest version of OS X, then download the latest version of Keynote from the Mac App Store. I have done all possible updates and restarted my computer and still this error happens. On my other computer with OS X 10.10 Keynote 6.5 opens just fine. How do I fix the problem with it not opening in 10.10.2?

Hello gradinc,
It is hard to say what this could be. If you are still getting prompts to upgrade Keynote, it may be trying to open an older version. I would try and delete Keynote and then download it again. I would also try to open it within Launchpad or opening it directly from the Mac App Store to see if the error comes up again. If it does let me know.

Power Teacher Gradebook won't run with Yosemite

Hello everyone,
I recently updated to Yosemite, I was previously lion 10.7.5, my java was and still is version 7. The application power teacher grade book now will no longer launch on my computer even though I haven't updated the Java which was the previous issue with it several years ago. I need this for work and could really use some help if anyone out there has experience with this.
Thanks!!!

First, never upgrade the OS unless you know your mission critical software will work with it. Second, visit the developer's site to see if there is an upgrade that will work. Third, if you must then look for a suitable and compatible substitute. Fourth, if all else fails restore your backup of your former system version.

Updated iPhoto but won't open with Yosemite, why?

Updated to Yosemite, said to update iPhoto. Downloaded iPhoto but it will not open. Help.

Found this on another thread:

Yosemite with Photos app :
Apple wrote : You can still use your original photo library with iPhoto 9.6.1 and Aperture 3.6 after you've migrated it to Photos. Any changes you make in iPhoto or Aperture after you migrate to Photos, like image edits or album changes, will be visible only in iPhoto or Aperture.
BUT does it mean what it says. There is still an iPhoto Library on your Laptop... and ‘copies’ are sent to the cloud to be used by other devices.
See my question above. We are 1000 miles from any CLOUD source when at sea. I need to be able to use/work with photos.

Has AE ever worked at all on this computer?
