Minor issues with a first time Arch Install

FInally installed Arch and now facng minor issues:
I've installed GNOME {wanted to install KDE but that thing required 1 GB install and 2GB disksapce so went with GNOME.}
I've added
dbus
to
/etc/rc.conf
and also added
exec ck-launch-session gnome-session
on the initrc file on the non root login I'd created but the darned GNOME doesn't start up at boot time.
I have to log in with the user id and then type :
xinit gnome-session
each time to get GNOME working.
Can't fiigure out the thing that I'm missing out on! Also how to setup/configure AUR? I don't seem to be able to get that thing on the Beginners Guide chalked out!
Please help.

I'll modify the /etc/rc.conf to make the net as a background process.
but I'm also facing another small hurdle.
I wanted to install MPlayer . After resolving some dependencies, I get a message saying the total download size is 8MB. When I type 'Y' to continue install, it proceeds for a while and then displays a message saying some of the files are not available.
After a little while, when I try to install it again, I get the same message. Can you guys please help me out!

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work. Help?

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work.
^^ that's the main problem. Here's the full history.
I bought a new 13" i5 MBP, early 2011 edition. I had an old white Macbook 2.14 ghz core2duo on Snow Leopard. I attempted to port over my time machine backup, but encountered problems in that my User was inaccessible from the new computer after the import finished, and I had to go in and change the root password, etc, and for some reason or another, I couldn't install any programs at all from that administrator's account. By "couldn't" I mean I could install them, but upon installation they would never boot. So, I took it to the apple store and did a clean install from the most up to date Lion OSX. Then, I created a brand new admin account, instead of trying to import the old one, and things seemed great. Then, I just imported my old files from the TM backup, but not any system settings, permissions, or user data. Just my Docs, pics, vids, apps, and itunes stuff.
Here's where things get weird again. I imported this stuff under the name "old", but all of these folders have a red negative sign on them, marking them as restricted. So, from my main admin account, I cannot even peruse these folders. Since I didn't import user data, I can't sign in to the "old" account to change permissions. I already tried to change the permissions from system preferences, but that didn't change anything. And now, for whatever reason, of all the apps that were imported then, MS Office is the only set of apps that does not work. When I click on it, it just says there was a problem and asks if I'd like to send a report to apple. I tried reinstalling it to no avail. I'm an English student, so i really need access to Word. Can anyone help? The Apple store is a major detour for me and would like to fix this issue myself.

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

We're sorry.
We can't find the article you're looking for.

Sigh.

Issue with site load time when exported as HTML. Addressed?

Has the issue with website load time been addressed?
I believe the site attempts to load the entire image content at the initial visit - meaning any galleries with numerous pictures are all included when first getting to the site. This is causing a HUGE increase in load time. I was told when I last brought it up that it was an apparent issue that needed to be addressed.
Any type of resolution coming?
Site for reference: www.dkrecollection.com

Major updates of Muse are targeted to release roughly every quarter. The 1.0 release was in mid-May. The 2.0 release was in mid-August. A fundamental change to image loading would only appear as part of a major update due to the engineering and testing efforts required.
As provided in your previous thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4659347#4659347 the only workaround until then is to reduce the number of images in the slideshow.

Minor issues with CreditRating tutorial

Just in case someone else encounters these problems with the CreditRating tutorial in the Quick Start for BPEL:
The Eclipse wizard doesn't seem to be able to add the home="${orabpelHome}" attribute to the bpelc task in the build.xml. In my case it's C:/Apps/OraBPELPM_1/integration/orabpel.
I had to manually change the WSDL in the orabpel\domains\default\tmp\.bpel_CACreditFlow_1.0.jar\ directory. There must be some way to get the deploy tool to set $SERVER-URL$=http://yourserver:9700, but I don't see the way. This needed to be set in the schemaLocation attribute for the ws-addressing.xsd file.
The generated build.xml refers to a "BPEL Programming" guide... but I haven't found it. That's annoying.
There are a couple of other minor issues with the tutorial, but this got it working for me.
Chris

Hi Christopher,
Thanks for the Post.
Just a few Questions on the version on which you faced this issue.
1. The Version of the BPEL Server.(Is it 10.1.2 or 2.1.2)
2. Have you applied the patch on the install if its 10.1.2?
3. What Designer you are using? (JDev or Eclipse)(I presume Eclipse)
4. Are you facing the same issue if you use the JDev Designer? or the obant on the Developer prompt?
Regards,
Dhaval

the first time i installed the illustrator trial version today, an incomplete or an error message was recieved.
i uninstalled the software however, i can not seem to re install it again to continue with my trial version.
kindly help.

Arunima,
You may try to restart the Creative Cloud application by quitting and relaunching it.
And you may try to run the Cleaner Tool, then try to install again.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?

Three minor issues with CSDK documentation

Three very minor issues with the CSDK documentation:
1. The JavaDoc documentation for the Session class at
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13866_01/calendar.904/b10973/toc.htm
describes the getHandle() method as:
"Handle getHandle(int in_flags, java.lang.String in_user)
Java interface to CSDK_SetIdentity"
This looks like a cut-and-paste typo, and should
instead be "Java interface to CSDK_GetHandle".
2. When the Api.CSDK_FLAG_STORE_INVITE_SELF flag is not included
in the "in_flags" parameter in the call to Session.storeEvents()
in the Java CSDK, and no attendees are otherwise specified in
the iCalendar string passed to that method, that method returns
the status code 'CAPI_STAT_DATA_ICAL_NOATTENDEES'.
This behavior is consistent with the description of the C toolkit's
equivalent function, CSDK_storeEvents().
However, the 'CAPI_STAT_DATA_ICAL_NOATTENDEES' status code
does not appear to be documented in Chapter 6, Calendar SDK Status
Codes, of the Oracle Calendar Application Developers Guide.
3) In Chapter 3, the Calendar SDK Function Reference, of the
Oracle Calendar Application Developers Guide, there are
listings for the equivalent method(s) in the Java toolkit for each
of the C toolkit functions.
At least one description of a C toolkit function call is missing
its listing of its Java-equivalent method (or in the case of this,
function, a description of why there is no equivalent method):
CSDK_CreateMemoryStream().

A follow-up to this long-ago thread:
in addition to the "CAPI_STAT_DATA_ICAL_NOATTENDEES"
status code, at least two other status codes occur in
ctapi.h but are not mentioned in the Developers Guide:
CAPI_STAT_CONFIG_CANNOT_OPEN
CAPI_STAT_SECUR_CANTBOOKATTENDEE
I haven't done a systematic comparison, but these are
three errors that we've encountered in our testing,
so we've noticed that these are missing from the Guide.

I have been having issues with my computer lagging after installing lion.

I have been having issues with my computer lagging after installing lion. Can anyone please help me get the issue resolved? I need it in easy to follow language.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Have also heard that the ipad3 revamped version is around along with the mini pad rumor..too much information - lot's of confusion pls help

Lindsay,
Your iBookG4 is still a pretty awesome Mac. Like already said, it has the power to run Leopard, but it depends if you have an internal DVD drive.
Then I suppose you have to add up the cost of the OS, perhaps another 512MB RAM, iLife 08 and replacements for any favourite apps that you currently use (Leopard breaks a lot of stuff, but Intel breaks even more). Compare it to the cost of a new MacBook, which wil have all of that included and be 3-4x faster too.
It also depends on what you want to achieve with your iBook. My PMG4 still cuts it today, I still use it in preference to my new Mac Pro, It's about the same age as your iBook, and I'll only stop using it when it becomes "painfully" slow. My 1 year old son currently uses the Mac Pro (parts for a Mac Pro are easier to replace than those for a PMG4).
I think your choice is simple, if you can a cheap copy of Tiger, use that, it'll get your iPod Touch up and running. It came in DVD and 4 CD version (by request).
Leopard will work for you too but a lot of the best eye-candy requires quite a meaty graphics card and you may need a RAM upgrade and replacement software - OS9 Classic is not supported in Leopard.

Hello,
SAPKIPYJ63 is PI_BASIS 2005_1_640: patch 0003.
Apparently you have included this support package in the upgrade. But have you installed or upgrade the component PI_BASIS to 2005_1_640 during the IS_SELECT phase? This is required for support package SAPKIPYJ63.

I need help with the .xinitrc (first time arch user)

I just installed Arch on a virtual machine and i am following the beginner guide step by step.
I have reached the point that i enable gnome-session to start automatically when you invoke startx.
The guide says i need to add the line "exec ck-launch-session gnome-session" in the xinitrc file.
I tried doing this in the root account and the system just doesnt login to gnome. I tried doing it using the normal user and the files just disappears, and cannot be edited.
I looked around on the internet and found that typing startx /usr/bin/gnome-session startx gnome, but it doesnot replace startx or starts automatically.
this is my first time using arch and i would like help.
Thank you.

You probably think the file "disappears" because .xinitrc is a "dot" file, which normally doesn't show up in an ls listing. Any file whose name begins with a '.' is a "hidden" file and generally doesn't show up in any listing. 'ls -a' to see it.
And please note that it is the file .xinitrc - ie, it begins with a period. This is the file that is looked for by X at start up.
