Monitor having trouble coming on.

I have a G5 tower and I'm having problems with the monitor not coming on. What happens is when I'm away from the computer for long enough, it goes to sleep and in the past I would just click on the mouse to wake it up. So now the monitor isn't waking up. I've tried hitting the power on off and jolted it back to life. This usually works, although now it isn't. Can someone tell me what is going on and how I should deal with/fix it?

Hi Kris,
Others with Power Mac G5 towers with this problem have found resetting the SMU will solve the problem. To reset the SMU on your Power Mac G5 see:

hope that helps and post back with any further comments or questions,

I have a generation 1 IPad, having trouble coming on after charge.

I have a generation 1 IPad, everytime the kids let it die I have trouble getting it to start back up. I charge it for hours and when I come back to it the low battery image comes up. If I unplug it the needs charged image comes up. This has been going on for the passed six to ten months. I have been able to keep trying both pluged in and unpluged to get it to come on. I try just the power button, both power and home for 30 sec. plug it in to the computer and do it. everytime I have been able to get it to come on. When it does come on it is fully charged. It runs great for a Gen 1 that is 3 years old. I tell the kids to make sure they are charging it and not lettting it die, but they are kids. So again today I have a die IPad and everything I try is not working. Any ideas on how I can get this thing to work and maybe not have to go through this again.

I am having trouble playing MFX files in Premiere Pro CC. The audio is out of synch. Is there a way to monitor the audio correctly?

Many thanks

Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
Keep copies of the originals.
Another option might be to try to install Perian. Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

Having trouble with the messages on mac my friends using it are coming not registered when i try to send them a message

having trouble with the messages on mac my friends using it are coming not registered when i try to send them a message

That's probably because they're not registered.
Messages only works if your friend has an iphone.
There is a workaround that can work, though.
set up an AIM account online.
in System preferences > mail, contacts, and calendars, enter your new AIM account.
in Contacts, on your friend's contact card, look for AIM. Enter their phone number right before that, with a +1 before it, and the area code: i.e., +11234567899.
This doesn't always work. Their cellular carrier has to cooperate with AIM. Some do, some don't. If it doesn't work, tell your friend to get an iPhone.

Having trouble setting up Distributed Processing / Qmaster

Hey Guys,
I was able to (at one point) use Compressor 3 via Final Cut Pro Studio with Qadministrator to allow Distributed processing either via managed clusters or QuickCluster - both worked on both macs (a 2007 2.6Ghz Core 2 Duo iMac and a 2009 3.06Ghz Core 2 Duo iMac).
I just upgraded to Final Cut Pro X and Compressor 4. As far as I can tell, the Qmaster settings now reside in the Compressor application itself, so I tried setting it up as best as I could using both the QuickCluster and managed cluster options (very similar to when using the older Qmaster) but no dice. I can see my controller's cluster from the secondary iMac, but it always displays submissions as "Not Available" and it does not help with processing. I've tried everything I can think of - I tried using FCS Remover for the older version of Final Cut, I tried looking around via terminal to see if there are any residual files & settings prior to the FCPX install, I've tried following as many instructions as I could find (including apple's official documentation on Compressor 4 on setting up a cluster) but NOTHING seems to work. I'm at a loss!!
Unfortunately, any documentation or refrences to issues with Qmaster / Distributed processing is related to older versions of Compressor and whatnot.
Can anyone help or have any suggestions? I have no idea how to get this working and I am having trouble finding anything useful online during my research
Perhaps someone is familiar and can help me set it up correctly? I'm verrrry new to Final Cut in general, so I appologize in advance if i'm a bit slow but i'll try to keep up!
Thanks,

In spite of all Apple's hype I'm not sure distributed processing is actually working.
First I ran in to the problem with permisions on the /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support folder. There's some info about that in this discussion. You'll need to fix it on each computer you're trying to use as a node.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3139466?start=0&tstart=0
Then I finally found some decent documentation on Compressor 4 here
http://help.apple.com/compressor/mac/4.0/en/compressor/usermanual/#chapter=29%26 section=1
However no matter what I tried I could not get the compression to spread across more than one computer. I tried managed clusters, quick clusters, and even "this computer plus". I was testing on a mac pro, a mac mini, and a macbook air. I could disable the mac pro and the processing would move to the mini, disable the mini and it would move the the macbook air. No matter what I do though it won't run on multiple machines.
I'm also having trouble doing any kind of compositing in FCPX and getting it to compress properly. I see this error
7/20/11 11:07:42.438 PM ProMSRendererTool: [23:07:42.438] <<<< VTVideoDecoderSelection >>>> VTSelectAndCreateVideoDecoderInstanceInternal: no video decoder found for 'png '
and then I end up with a hung job in the Share Monitor that if I try to cancel just sits there forever saying "canceling".
I'm seeing a bunch of Adobe AIR Encrypted Local Storage errors in the log too. Don't know what that has to do with FCPX but I'll have a look and try and figure it out.

I have an older IPOD that I'm having trouble getting new purchases on to my IPOD. I use to have a source list on the left hand side of screen where I dragged my purchases to and they downloaded. Can't find place to check manual vs. auto sync.

I have an older IPOD classic that I'm having trouble getting new purchases from library to IPOD. I use to have a IPOD icon in the source list on the left side of the screen. Now that is all gone. My purchases are coming up as recently purchased but can't figure out how to get them transferred to IPOD. I also can't find how to confirm setting is for manual not auto sync as the first computer I had blew up and am now using a different one. I haven't had any of these problems prior to the updates.

G'day Mate,
As an avid flight simmer I bought a new soundcard my previous was
an audigy 2 platinum ex with an external module I really liked but somehow all of a sudden I was getting a screech when using FS9 sor I opted to change to the present. Well stone the crows my soundcard was auto updated with new drivers and well you guessed it the soundcard did not show in the sound video controllers window No I have just joined this forum and it looks like3 you may have the answer for me . I am now going to do as you suggest and see what happens.
I shall return with the outcome of my dilemma.
Many thanks for your sound advice ( pardon the pun)

Having trouble finding command prompt on AIX machine

I've successfully set up the server stats monitor to collect stats from iostat, vmstat etc. on a solaris box, but I'm having trouble getting the same information from an AIX machine using ssh.
-- I'm able to plink and login successfully to the aix machine
-- I've added the rsa2 key fingerprint to the registry of the windows machine where eload is installed.
Here's the top of the error message:
"Monitor configuration failure alert: monitor id=<ip address>:ds_ConsoleEngine_<ip address>_null_4.16 alert=<ip address>:ds_ConsoleEngine_<ip address>_null_4.16
(message id=console.configFailureAlert): Error returning value: host key fingerprint is....
<snip>
When I scan the rest of the error message, I can see that I was successfully logged in. I have a feeling that the command prompt wasn't found.
Any suggestions?
thanks.

Some additional info...
If I open a windows command prompt and use plink to login to the servers, this is what I get on solaris:
C:\Empirix\e-LoadDataCollector\bin>plink -ssh userid@solarismachine
returns a command prompt that looks like:
←]0;userid@solarismachine:~←[m←[m←[m←[Uuserid@solarismachine:~#> ←[K
The AIX box returns the following as the command prompt:
←]0;userid@aixmachine:~←[m←(B←[m←[m ←[Uuserid@aixmachine:~#> ←[K
I specified ~#> as the command prompt in eLoad.

Having Troubles Gettin Lines Of Input!?!?!?!!?

I'm trying to build a command line application (named Assemble) which will read (from standard in) a tagged "discussion" stream and print a (somewhat) organized version of the tagged part of the discussion (to standard out).... but i'm having trouble getting multiple lines of input.. i tried a while statement that looked like this... while ( (input = in.readline()) != null ) and all i got was every other line of input to get displayed to the screen or to a file... how can i fix this??? i had the while statement above input = in.readLine();
     BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader( System.in ));
     String input;
     input = in.readLine();
     System.out.println( input );

thanks.. i have the input coming in.. but how can i redirect input to output within the program.. i'm trying to move the input lines to either a file called head.txt, body.txt, or foot.txt... once the files are in there.. i want to read them out to the screen... how can i do this? at the moment..i'm moving them just to the screen..
import java.io.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Assemble
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
if (args.length > 0)
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("Assemble.class is a small program that");
System.out.println("takes in as input a body of text and then");
System.out.println("outputs the text in an order according to");
System.out.println("the tags that are placed in the input.");
else
System.out.println("");
System.out.flush();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader( System.in ));
String input;
while (true)
input = in.readLine();
if (input == null)

Monitor 1920x1080 trouble

Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble with getting my macbook pro mid 2012 (running latest Maverick) to display the 1920x1080 resolution on my external monitor. It only fills part of the screen and has a black border around it. Is there anyway to allow it to fill the whole screen? I have the Acer V243H 24" monitor with 1920x1080 display and DVI + VGA inputs. It's currently hooked up with a mini display port to VGA.
Hope I can solve this problem as it would be great to have it working on HD.
thank's guys!

It's currently hooked up with a mini display port to VGA.
Resolution for VGA is often severely limited.
To get higher, you probably need to connect via DVI.

Having trouble with fm transmitter

i have a 2gb 1st gen nano and use an extrememac airplay2 transmitter in my car
i've been having trouble with the connection - it will sometimes only transmit through the right speaker, or it will be working fine and it will suddenly kick off and i get a blast of static (i.e. what would be coming through the radio if the ipod wasn't playing at all). gives me a coronary, every time.
picking up the entire assembly and jiggling things a bit clears it up, though, which makes me think that i've got a dirty or damaged connection between the ipod and the transmitter...so, first things first - if i wanted to clean the 'dock' part of the nano, how would i do that? safely?
has anyone else had this problem?

how much did you spend on this fm transmitter? my experence is that if you pay less than $80 its junk.. if i were to clean out the "dock" portion of an ipod i would use an air gun/bottle.. I dont know if its safe or not but its what i would try. i have been through an itrip and one other cheap fm transmitter and i had the same issues as you had..
good luck.

My Macbook with 10.6.8 is having trouble with certain applications- Word will not open, and text edit or pdf will not print.

My Macbook (13 inch 2008) running OS 10.6.8 is having trouble with some applications. Word will not even open. I cannot print from text edit or Preview or Adobe. Excel sometimes opens but very slow. What could be wrong? I have repaired permissions, used an antivirus program, deleted some old MS fonts, and still no change. I have 1 G RAM and there seems to be plenty available and I have 50 G of hard drive space empty.

Well, first 1gb of Ram is not plenty. It's the absolute bare minimum just to run OS X 10.6.8. The MS Office applications are ram hogs also. I would recommend three things.
1. Get more ram.
2. Reinstall and update your MS Office applications.
3. Reinstall Snow Leopard.
If you're not familiar with Activity Monitor you might have a look at this link and you'll be able to judge your ram situation a little better.
