My MBP Still freezes after deleting SU 2006-003

Hi Guys,
Like many others I did the SU 2006-003 on Friday, and found my MBP freezing up on start-up, after deleting the Version Cue CS2 from the start-up items I still got the freezing effect, so I called Apple and they said that my MBP had an option to reinstall the 10.4.5 (my DVD version) without loosing my user preferences, so I did that. And all my problems where solved, and then I did a software update of all the updates except the SU 2006-003, to my surprise the MBP still freezes. So I came to the conclusion that both SU 2006-003 and QT 7.1 came out on the same day, but everyone thought that SU 2006-003 was the problem. When all along was the QT 7.1 causing the problem, both QT 7.1 and Adobe Suite apps run in the background at start-up, apparently they contradict each other now, so I tried reinstalling Adobe Suite CS2, and I can't even think about installing Version Cue, cause that freezes the MBP right away, during the installation!!!.
So after doing a save mode and deleting Version Cue (again), I go back to my normal system (witch now is 10.4.6) and try to run the rest of the Adobe Suite apps, to my surprise all work well except the Adobe Acrobat, the main app for PDF's, once I double click that App the MBP freezes up. So now I'm tempted again to reinstall the 10.4.5 and not do the QT 7.1 update as well.
Can anyone give me a better solution? This one takes to much time and a great deal of concentration, cause not all of my apps work well after this, so I have to reinstall them again, mainly Parallels, Missing sync, Documentstogo, Backupbuddy, and others. It's a real pain.

No, I don't use the Adobe suite. I do have the Adobe Reader, Photoshop Elements 4.0, and Acrobat 6.x installed. They all run without a problem as does Microsoft Office 2004 X.
Please be careful about installing or moving anything from an old system onto the Intel Mac unless you know it's a universal binary and compatible. Default Folder 2.0.x is not compatible. Get Default Folder 3.0 (just released.)
Here's some more related info:
A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3 or G4 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC
System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies
Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers. These versions are not universal binaries and will not work on Intel-Macs. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the only current choice is USB Overdrive. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior (does not work), TechTool Pro (does not work), SuperDuper (newest release works), and Drive Genius (untested) may not work properly on Intel-Macs. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

My computer has been seen at Genius bar 6 times for freezing up, reloaded all original settings and even went to the apple shop where they replaced the battery and logic board. Still freezes after I try to reload iTunes stuff and app stuff from apple

my computer has been seen at Genius bar 6 times for freezing up, reloaded all original settings, all of their diagnostics, and they even sent it to the apple shop where they replaced the battery and logic board. Still freezes after I try to reload iTunes stuff and app stuff from apple, especially iPhoto which is seems to refuse to load and then begins freezing up all over again. Anyone else have this problem. Other than this, I have had absolutely no problems with this computer. Now, it's a file of junk.

Hi Ronald ...
Have you checked lately to see how much free space there is on the disk? Especially since iPhoto freezes at launch ...
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
And make sure the OS X software is up to date.
Click the Apple  top left in your screen.
From the drop down menu click: Software Update
If you have anti virus software installed or are using third party Mac cleaning utiliites, that may be part and parcel of the your problems.

Rosetta crashes after Security Update 2006-003

The other day I installed Security Update 2006-003, and now a number of PowerPC applications crash the machine.
It's a funny crash, the mouse keeps moving and the capslock key goes on and off, but that's it. Nothing on the screen animates or updates. Windows will not move, dock does not do anything. cannot force quit or command-tab. The only option is to do a hard reset or hard shutdown.
I found this article:
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060517111924138&query=rosetta+crash
I hope it's fixed soon!
Matt

Hello!
I'm glad I found your post -- a brand new Intel Core Duo 20" iMac is doing the same for me after Security Update 2006-003.
What I've found on this end so far is that Norton AntiVirus 10 for Macintosh seems to aggravate the problem. I had a system that was running fine (complete with NAV10) before applying the 2006-003 update. At first I thought the problem might be due to user error--maybe NAV wasn't quite ready for Intel Macs, but Symantec says it is after you get version 10.1 from LiveUpdate. (I did.)
I finally had to erase the hard drive and reinstall the entire operating system from the provided restore discs. After I did that and got the latest software updates, I tried again with NAV. It still caused the same problem...a complete lockup.
The first time around, only NAV seemed to cause problems. Other PowerPC-native programs running in Rosetta seemed to be OK. This second time around any PowerPC-native app running in Rosetta (after the install of NAV10) would lock the machine up completely, except for the mouse pointer. (I have also noticed that the machine still responds to being pinged over the network, and that Apple Remote Desktop 3 says it is online. So the crash isn't stopping everything from working.)
So my conclusion is that there is something seriously wrong with Security Update 2006-003 and Rosetta, and it may be made worse by NAV10 for Macintosh. In any case, I'm going to steer clear of this update for now.

Clean up groupwise POA - data still big after delete account

Hi guys,
I migrated antest groupwise sytem from my production.
My POA data is too big (around 80GB) , so i deleted most of mailbox and keep only 10 mailboxes with small size.
but the POA data is still big ( around 80GB ) .
do you know why my POA data is too big after delete? or any step i missed?
or any command to purge my POA?
tks all.

MBP still slow after SMC reset and a fresh install.

MBP still running slow. Tried Onyx. Done a fresh install of Mountain Lion. Reverted to Snow Leopard. Done SMC reset. No significant resources in activity monitor, the top hit is safari with 296 MB and 7% CPU utilization. My best guess is a disk activity issue. I am getting a peak of 2.8 mb/sec data read (average is 300 KB/sec). Slow loading, much slower application response. Also, done with Defrag and disk permission repairs. Any suggestions?

Well it certainly appears you have thrown the entire mess at it, there is one thing left.
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
Yes I know you did this, but you make sure you do these things.
1: When you Disk Utility > Zero Secure Erase the boot drive, make sure to select the ENTIRE drive on the far left, not the indented partitions. Zeroing takes some time, but it maps off problem sectors your drive firmware may be missing.
Reducing bad sectors effect on hard drives
2: Do not restore from TimeMachine or clone as they could be corrupted, install everything fresh and test, then programs, then finally files from a external storage drive (vetted and ClamXav scan just in case)
3: Do not run Defrag or anything else, your drive will be perfectly optimized just like it is. Report the results of your drive tests etc.
If your STILL having problems after this last desperate act, your drive is likely failing and/or has ran out of spare sectors, thus can't map off anymore.
Your going to need to replace the internal drive.
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
Please, let me know how it went.
Thanks.

Email lag or freeze after delete

I have been having severe lag in the mail app after deleting emails. Can't scroll up and down, can't open or delete other mail, sometimes for minutes.

Sri81 wrote:
But this trigger is firing twice once when delete button is pressed and once when record is being saved. I need to fire it only once. Please find below the code for the below.
Please assist me in this.As jurgenk noted, it is possible and it is called mini-rollback
Triggers Fired Multiple Times
If an UPDATE or DELETE statement detects a conflict with a concurrent
UPDATE, then Oracle performs a transparent ROLLBACK to SAVEPOINT and restarts the update. This can occur many times before the statement
completes successfully. Each time the statement is restarted, the
BEFORE statement trigger is fired again. The rollback to savepoint
does not undo changes to any package variables referenced in the
trigger. Same way non-transactional actions (like sending email) will not be undone by mini-rollback. So if your delete can not be done in one "pass" and a mini-rollback occurs email will be sent twice.

My Satellite A660 still freezes after three service under warranty

My laptop freezes occasionally from the first day. I have a reclamation three times at two authorized service enterprises. First service changed the BIOS, they clean it and said that Toshiba tests didn't find the hardware problem.
Second service enterprise said that test shows problem with the hard drive and they changed Laptop still freezes occasionally, event viewer is my proof. Warranty expires at Sept 2012. What I can do?
Please help me with the sloppy service.
Desperate customer

Yes, I visited moj servis and mr servis. Both are official service centres.
It is Satellite A660-10W with Windows 7 Home installed and yes it freezes with factory settings. It freezes no matter what degree of activity is present. Event Viewer is a proof of freeze conditions. I don't want to be rude or boastful, but my 15 years work with computers tell me that motherboard have an error. I just don't know why Toshiba service centres are so inert.
I can find any toshiba support mail to inform toshiba about service centres sloppiness. What they think, that I want another computer and have a lot of time to get fight with stupid people, stupid questions in stupid companies.
I choose toshiba because they have 2 year warranty. Now I see that they can put 10 years warranty on that way. It would be more usefull that toshiba have an address where can I send the laptop with the "thank you but never more" message.

PPC-iMac: Black screen on restart after Security Update 2006-003

Did the Security Update 2006-003 this morning. On restart the screen is showing the grey Apple-logo for several seconds. Then it goes black, with the prompt in the upper left corner: "localhost/root:" Vent running in high gear. Entering unix-commands is possible, but no graphic interface coming up. How to fix this? Don't want to reinstall the whole system.
iMac G5 20" PowerPC iSight Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I'm having basically the same problem with my PowerBook 1Ghz Aluminum 17". After running the latest security update and latest iLife patches using SU, my system boots to the local Darwin consol login. I can see my HD and all it's files, but I can't get the machine to boot back into GUI mode. Safe mode doesn't work.
This was a newly refreshed system running 10.4.6 and ONLY iLife installed - nothing funky and no 3rd-party apps other than those pre-installed in 10.4.x.
I've booted with the 10.4 DVD, repaired permissions (again) and repaired the drive (reported not needed). Zapping the PRAM doesn't help.
Perhaps I have a lemon because I have had problems with this machine in the past, but only when installing major system updates between 10.3-10.4 with non-apple RAM. I don't think this is the culprit this time as the machine has been functioning fine since the last fresh 10.4 install (with some OWC RAM).
Any ideas? Anyone have tips for what can be done in the console to repair the system?

Motion 3 still freezing after after MBP Software Update 1.1

I have just started to use Motion 3 with my new Hi Rez 17" MBP and had a couple of occasions where Motion would freeze completely with the only option being to turn off the MBP and reboot it. I checked the Motion discussions and found that a lot of people had been having trouble with Intel MBP's and Motion after software update 1.0. I was pleased to hear that software update 1.1 was supposed to fix the issues and duely downloaded and installed it.
However, in the past 3 hours I have been trying to work on a motion project (a pretty simple one at that) and motion would have FROZEN AT LEAST 6 TIMES. Disappointed to say the least!
Has anyone else with a similar MBP experienced the same issues with Motion 3 after installing software update 1.1? As it is Motion is next to impossible to use and because the app is not crashing I can't even send off a report to Apple.
Cheers

Hi Jose,
Although we don't seem to be any closer to a fix, its good to know I'm not the 'Lone Ranger' on this issue.
A bit more info, in case somebody has any ideas. Since my post, at the suggestion from the guys I bought the MBP from I ran the Extended Hardware Test on the OSX install CD in case I might have some issues with something like the MBP's memory (I am running the full 4GB of RAM by the way). It came up completely fine.
Another thing is that I noticed today that there is a new software update available - the 'MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update 1.0'. It doesn't say in the notes that it has anything to do with any motion fixes but I found the naming convention a bit strange. Maybe this is normal but just because they stick 'MacBook' in front I would have thought Apple would have given a different version number considering MacBook Pros have already had a software update 1.0. I was wondering if I try to run software update 1.1 again whether this might have the desired effect but I think I am probably clutching at straws.
Any other feedback is greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Pete

MBP Retina Freeze after migration and no option for Reinstall

Hello,
just want to inform you, I have just maked the migration to my new MBP retina and have a problem that it will freeze only option is to boot in safe mode.
Have deinstalled apps which could be the problem such as Paralles desktop, Symantec Endtime protection, SMC Fan... still have the problem with all users.
Deleted the Startubitems, launchagents and deamons still the same problem.
So I wanted to make a complete reinstalltion and here is the problem the apple server do not let me make the reinstallation.
This version of Mac OS x 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer
Answer for the support they have to get in contact with the Itunes department this can take 2 days. So I can only enjoy my mbp in safe mode.
Kann someone help me to fix the freesing after the migration?

I can try that but I am afraid that I do than not even have the safe mode any more. Will spend 1-2 more hours to fix the problem, because after the reinstallation I will do the same migration and may end at the same situation.
So better try to fix it.
Fix the spotlight index crash and know have a new one I386_pmGetDeadline: Null pointer.
This have to do with the power management. Will try that and than let us see.

Pictures in "photos" tab (sidebar) are still present after deleting from original album.

After importing my library from iPhoto to photos (Version 1.0 (209.52.0)), i deleted a large number of photos from one of my events (now an album). In this album i can only see the photos which i wanted. However when i select the "photos" tab at the very top of the sidebar, the deleted photos are still able to be seen. They are not in the 'recently deleted' section either. How do i permanently delete them? Should i remove them from the "photos" tab, or from the "all photos" album?
There also seem to be many duplicated photos in my library after the importing. Is there an easy way to find and remove the duplicates?
Thanks.
Working on a MBP 13 inch (mid '12) with 2.9 GHz Intel core i7, 8GB memory and 1TB hard drive.

Deleting them from the "Photos" tab will delete them. (actually, it will move them to the "deleted items" area, where they'll be permanently deleted after 30 days).
The duplicates could be for one of two reasons:
1) The photo was in your library and in your photo stream. It's possible this is causing some duplication
2) You could have actually had lots of duplicates in your iPhoto library, and this is just easier to see in Photos

My iPhone 5c freezes after deleting messages and then I can no longer receive them. Just shows a blank screen of a new message

Every time I try to delete my messages, I will delete and then restart the app or it won't work. When I restart the app, it takes me to an empty message screen and then will completely freeze. My phone will vibrate like I am receiving messages, but nothing shows up on my phone. Recovering the phone is not working, as the computer no longer recognizes the phone as a device.

Hey there hockeychic3,
If your Messages app is still behaving unexpectedly, then based on the symptoms you are describing I would troubleshoot the software by first quitting the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
Let me know how that goes.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

Condition records in ERP sales order still there after deletion

Hello,
I have maintained all the settings needed for lean order (creating ERP sales order from crm opportunity in CRM webui).
Now when i create a ERP sales order in CRM using LORD, there are certain condition values determined correctly (note that they are variant based condition values).
However depending upon the sales scenario, certain conditions are to be deleted from pricing details at item level. So, far no issue.
After I save this ERP sales order, and go to see it in our ERP system, i find that those condition values are still there !
I am unable to understand why this is happening.
Please help me.
Regards

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, for your question "One more point confirm with you, you create sale order in CRM as a CRM order ( type LORD), and the order will transfer to ERP by CRM middleware, right?" , the answer is no i dont create a CRM order, however i create an ERP order in crm webclient. This feature of CRM 7.0 is explained in following documentation:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm70/helpdata/en/17/99fb62928c46c28c10f3ebc52fdfa8/frameset.htm (then navigate to Entry of ERP Sales Transactions in SAP CRM)
As you also asked me to change the settings of condition type as manual input, which cannot be done because this will affect our business process to large extent, and my users will not accept it, hope you understand my situation
Please let me know if you can help me in some other way, or you want me to check some more settings.
Regards

External hard drive is still full after deleting files

I everyone, i really need some help with my hard drive. I have the Lacie 500gb firewire hard drive. I am save most of my short films, and other works on it while using final cut. While rendering videos recently , its said that i needed to free up space. When i right click and click on the get info for the hard drive, it told me 493.34gb has been used. I have deleted almost all the huge files i have on there after uploading to my cloud, but its making no difference. Its not freeing up any space. and I'm now at 497gb. Now i have almost totally deleted everything on it, and its still saying i have only about 2.7gb left on it.
I really can't afford to go and get another hard drive right now and just need to free up some space on this hard drive to continue working.
Please tell me what i am doing wrong so i can free up much necessary space on this drive.
I anxiously await your assistance.
thanks a whole lot!!

Dig deep, because it sounds like your best solution is to actually get another External Hard Drive.
I don't normally recommend inexpensive USB portable hard drives for everyday use, but that might be a good solution for old files that you would really rather save than trash to make room.
For example's:

Search protect icon in system tray (still there after deleting)

Hello i got infected with search protect (conduit). In my firefox, IE and Chrome browser my startpage got changed to mystartsearch or something like that.
I changed the startpages and deleted installed programs by the normal windows add and remove programmes tool in the configuration screen. I ran kaspersky.
Everything was cleaned it seemed besides 2 things. When i clicked new tab in firefox the mystartsearch page started in that tab. I solved this bij intalling a firefox tab add on. Than i changed the page that had to open when opening a new tab.
Another problem is a blue e icon in my system tray that i can't get away. It is started when my computer starts up. I can't click it, nothing happens. When i move with my mouse over it, "search protect, click to configure" is shown.
I disabeld programs in my startup configuration. I searched fot this program, but i can 't find anything than seems to be related to search protect. I searched for removal assistance on the internet but i can only find A to Z procedures, which are useless. The program already seems to be deleted from my computer but the icon keeps starting up on my computer.
Can somebody help? Do i have to reinstall search protect to delete it properly? And where can i find a "harmless" version of this program? It is a bit sick to reinstall an infected programm to redelete it. I prefer other solutions, but that icon on startup is irritating me and i wonder if it is still harming my computer.

You already uninstalled Search Protect from the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program? Could you check again for anything strange. After the list loads, I suggest clicking the "Installed on" column heading to group items by install date. This can help surface innocently named bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
You can search for remaining issues with the '''scanning/cleaning tools''' listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]. These on-demand scanners are free and take considerable time to run. If they finish quickly and especially if they require payment, you may have a serious infection. I suggest the specialized forums listed in the article in that case.
Regarding the new tab page, you shouldn't need an add-on to regain control.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
* ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
* ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
* ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
* ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
Some gotchas:
''If Firefox won't let you edit this setting:'' you may still have SearchProtect on your system.
''If Firefox lets you save your change but ignores it:'' one of your other extensions may be overriding it. You can review, disable, and/or remove extensions on the add-ons page:
"3-bar" Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > ''in the left column click'' Extensions
''If the change works during your session, but at the next startup is back to MyStart:'' you might have a user.js file in your personal Firefox settings folder (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and remove the file: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
Any luck?
