Metainit and devfsadm hanging - unable to perform device administration
A server had a problem a while ago where we had to remove 1/2 of a DiskSuite mirror (for just one metadevice) to perform some emergency maintenance due to file sys corruption. Now that it's been cleared up, I can no longer run devfsadm or add that metadevice mirror back in. The system just hangs during a socket call.
When running devfsadm, it hangs at the following point with an EAGAIN:

13326: door_call(5, 0xFFBFEE90) (sleeping...)I brought this system down on Saturday to install the latest recommended and security patch cluster, hoping that it might clear up any issues. Unfortunately, the patch cluster installed fine but this error persists.
Any ideas as to what might be causing this and how to correct it?
1. Make sure that in your phone you have your PC set as paired device (it's in "connections"). Plus make sure that paired PC is set as "authorised" in phone in setup of connections.
2. If still not working, check that you have latest drivers installed. You can get those by installing PC suite and follow p.1
I hope it helps.

Bluetooth and motorola e770 "unable to validate device" ???
hey everyone --
did some hunting online this morning and see that quite a few people have been having trouble connecting their motorola phones to their ibooks. i have a g4 with os x 10.4 and a motorola e770 (vodafone spain). after pairing correctly the phone and the ibook, i tried to send a file (.mp3 and later a .jpeg) and got the error "unable to validate device". I have no idea why it won't work, considering the computer recognizes the motorola and vice versa.
tried restaring both phone and ibook and uninstalling/reinstalling the bluetooth recognition/connection. no luck. anyone have any advice??oh i must tell you all that this is the worste phone i ever owned, and ive read many people saying that motorola is nothing but garbage these days.
the phone does various noticable things at glance, like freezes up when switching between menues after a few times for a few minutes , not one but few, and if you hit any buttons the one that seems to work the best in waking it up is the one for the web, and that costs 30 cents at starts, this happened 11 times, cant help it since the same button has several functions, beware that the screen changes menu options for that button.
i recomend you take that phone back and smqack the guy who sold it to you, this way retail clerks have more sense then to lie thourgh there teeth about such a phone, its a sham. -
Snow Leopard and BlackBerry - recently unable to detect device
I installed Snow Leopard last week. Immediately after it installed, I was able to use PocketMac to sync my BlackBerry 7130e and my Mac.
I later installed update 10.6.1 and shortly after, I realized that it wasn't syncing anymore, and the plug symbol that indicates the BlackBerry is plugged in was no longer present. However, the BlackBerry would charge using the USB/AC adapter, so I know it's not a faulty cord.
I did a restore back to when I was running 10.6 and it didn't make a difference, so I restored it again to 10.6.1 and I can't yet get it to sync.
I checked the System Profiler and this is what I got:

Vendor ID: 0x0fca

Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec

Any ideas on what might help?
David.I found a partial solution in another thread - downloading the drivers for pocketmac and deleting the .kext files for BlackBerry.
I can now get the "plugged in" symbol so I know it's connected, but still no syncing.

'Service this device' gets 'Unable to perform the operation' Deskjet 6940
Installing this software on several different XP SP2 boxes. The install does fine (although very long) and I can print to the printer. However, when I go to the printer properties and select Preferences and the Services tab, I click the "Service this device" icon and get only "Unable to perform this operation". I get the same results on 3 different computers. I tried installing the software from the CD, both USB connected and network connected. I also downloaded the latest s'ware from the HP site and got the same results.
Any ideas here? Without this function I have no way to clean the print heads and such later on, even though the printing works OK.
The only reference I could find previously by searching said that it happens when running the Firefox browser. I'm not doing that.After i've set Internet Explorer as default browser it Works !
What a strange solution -
How do i deactivate a device through icloud if the device is broken and i am unable to turn on find my iphone? Also i do not own a apple id as ive been using a family members due to problems when trying to make one?
Hey tyjox,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you need to deactivate Find My iPhone on a device that does not work. You will need to work with the family member of the account the iPhone is registered with. I would recommend that you use this article to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iCloud: Remove your device from Find My iPhone
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702
Remove an iOS device you no longer have
If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
Click All Devices, then select the device.
Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.
When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased and someone else can now activate the device.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

I do not know how but vshare, has been performing a search everytime I type something in the address bar that is not a complete website i.e. facebook instead of facebook.com
this is very annoying and I am unable to uninstall vshare, I have even tried uninstalling firefox and reinstalling itI had this problem too, and just fixed it, and found a great website that helped.
1. In Firefox type about:config in the address bar and press ENTER.
2. Locate and double-click the entry for keyword.URL
3. Set the value based on which search provider you would like to use for your address bar searches. Here are a few search strings you can use.
Yahoo: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=
Ask: http://www.ask.com/web?q=
Google: http://www.google.com/search?&q=
ChaCha: http://search.chacha.com/search/query?searchwithguide=0&query=
source: http://www.technipages.com/firefox-change-address-bar-search-provider.html
And if you want the I'm Feeling Lucky search, instead of just the Google page search, then put:
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
instead of: http://www.google.com/search?&q=
I just did that, and it worked for me. I had to go through a bunch of the different options, but I found one that worked.

I have a 2010 Macbook Pro and am a very new user to Mac community only started to use this PC a few weeks ago.
My Mac is just hanging and I am unable to shut it down or do anything at all. I left it for 2.5 days hoping the battery will run flat but it is not working. Pls help! I am desperate. TxIn order to resolve the issue if it occurs again, more info would be helpful as to what occurred prior to the "hang." One potential fix would be to try a Safe Boot:
After the Mac is completely shut down, push the power button and immediately after the startup tone, hold down the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
There should be a message that says "SafeBoot." After the Mac is completely booted, try restarting and see if the issue is gone. -
Since upgrading to Mavericks, I have been unable to sync devices (specifically ipad mini and iphone 4s) to my MId 2013 Imac . They wil rapidly connect and disconnect, and I'm unable to do anything with the device. This happens with both USB ports. Any suggestions?
MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.9.1)Obviously, syncing an iOS device with iTunes over USB is still supported in Mavericks. Calendar and contact syncing with iTunes is no longer supported. That has nothing to do with your problem.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

I got a new ipad2 for Christmas and I am unable to get it to accept my password for my wifi. I am using the same password that I have always used for all of my other devices. Can somebody help me????
Hi there
I had the same trouble today, I kept entering the sky password but would not accept, my iMac and iPod work ok but just could not get my iPod to work. But I found the fault, the password is case sensitive and mine on sky is in caps, the up arrows on the keypad put the caps on,but after each letter you must put the caps back or it wil revert to lower case, I hope this may help you -
My Jetpack 5510L says that its connected to 4G but its performing very slow, I removed the sim card and did a reset of the device. Any other suggestions?
I don't know who you would contact at Verizon to verify this, but I suspect you are in the same situation as me. My unlimited Jetpack is now being throttled to a basically useless speed of .10Mbps. Sometimes as low as .04Mbps. Turns out this is done purposely as they are evidently eliminating unlimited. They're doing this now even though accounts still display on the my device page as unlimited. They have given no warning, no explanation and started it in the middle of a billing cycle. At least for me. Be prepared to pay about double for 20GB with I think and $8 per gig overage cost. With the 5GB plan it appears they just throttle down to an unusable speed. Currently considering saying goodbye to Verizon myself. Even with some need to change plans and eliminate unlimited this isn't the way to treat customers during the change.

Hi, I'm unable to see if I have any music/videos/photos on my ipad and itunes advise that I have 23gb of 'other' material therefore the sync is unable to perform when transfering music/videos to the ipad. I was forced to perform a restore earlier and now cant see the videos/music so want to replace. Pls assist, thanks
23 GB of other indicates a corrupt file(s). A restore should resolve.
