My system has been taken over by os x
How do I stop it?
If he is really on 10.5, maybe his machine dual boots into OS9, and he no longer has that option because the system 9 system is "unblessed". 8^)
But we are just guessing.

Network has been taken over by other program! please help...
hello everyone
I have an eMac and the problem is that, everytime that I am trying to access the Network tab in System Preferences, I get a message that it's been taken over by another application!
Can anyone help me on that? Is it a matter of permissions or something else?
Any useful commands or software to fix the problem?
Thanks in advance!I have a broadband connection with BT Internet via the BT Home Hub (i.e. router), but I also still have an old dial-up account with OneTel. I have had no trouble at all with my BT broadband connection, but one contact of mine persistently fails to receive e-mails from me and I wanted to conduct some tests, so I decided (amongst other things) to try my OneTel dial-up service, which I haven't used for a long time.
I immediately ran into the problem of the 'Your network settings have been changed…' problem. I rebooted — no improvement. I ran Disk Warrior — no improvement. I then tried the idea of mouse-over-lock idea and it worked. But what is more remarkable is that after I disconnected from OneTel (i.e. closed the internal modem down) and then tried again, it worked straight away, without the persistent error message coming up. Thank you very much for the 'mouse-over-lock' suggestion. Whether, after I have shut my computer down and restarted, the 'repair' will still be operatve, or whether I shall have to go through the procedure again, I don't yet iknow. -
My creative cloud subscription has been taken over by somebody else
I've been in customer service purgatory. Am feeling desperate so came here for help. My case # is 209864626.
In October I purchased the Adobe Creative Cloud for $19.99 a month (using the educational discount). Shortly after that, my computer broke, and I did not have the opportunity to use the software, until now, when I have a new computer. When I log in to my account, using the email I always use, I do not see the Creative Cloud and I am unable to use any of its features. I am, however, being charged for it.
In my speaking with customer service, I've been told that there is another email associated with my credit card. I don't know how this could be, and can only assume there has been some fraud or hacking - whether on your side or mine, I don't know. But since I don't know what email is now associated with the account (and how would I, since it's not mine?), so far customer service seems to be unable to help.
What I do know is that if I am paying for a monthly service, I ought to have access to it. I know that I have not yet used any of the features of the creative cloud - if somebody else has, then they are not authorized and are accessing it fraudulently.
I would like to be able to log in to my account (or get a new account) that is signed up to my credit card (that I have already been paying) and use this service. The only suggestion that I've been given by customer service is to cancel the current subscription on my credit card and start a new one. But the creative cloud is no longer offered at the price of $19.99, so if this is the only solution, I would like some assistance in signing up a new account at the previous price.
I'm really hoping you can assist. Thanks in advance for looking into this for me.Hi Beccabakkerwells,
It looked like you had an issue with your email being incorrect but it was changed and the issue resolved. Is the issue solved now?

My Computer Has Been Taken Over by the Matrix
Can anyone explain this? This is the second time this issue has happened. The first time it happened was a few weeks back. You cannot use the computer when this happens; force quitting accomplishes nothing. Fortunately, however, you can take a screen shot. I was using the 9600GT to avoid the screen flickering associated with using the 9400GT.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/40285585@N02/4592673729/My computer is just being a real bundle of joy right now. It's not recognizing either of the install CDs. One of them makes an odd noise and ejects within 10 seconds of inserting it, which the other spins for 5 minutes (speeding up, then slowing down), and then the computer ultimately claims I've inserted a blank disk.
-They ARE the correct install discs for this computer.
-The are not scratched AT ALL.
-My computer has ZERO physical damage.

I have been taken over by a local Network that has disabled my systems profiler and plug-ins. How do I break free?
If you are absolutely sure that this is the problem then you should turn the airport off.

Had hard drive renewed due to product recall (iMac) backed up complete system on time machine . Had the drive done got mac back tried to reinstall from time machine .The new drive tells me that the space has been taken up but can't find where the file have gone. Need to free up the space that the ghost file take up so I can drag drop from ex drive onto harddrive
Here's the scoop, new friend.....
When you boot into Time Machine you'll get the same OS X Utilities screen as you would if you booted into the Recovery HD. So, from there go into Disk Utilities to erase/format your internal drive. After that's done, back out to the OS X Utilities screen and select the restore option. Just follow the prompts to select the TM back up date you want to restore from and where to restore it to. Pretty straight forward. -
How to chek if the username has been taken
hi all,
i have a swing panel to indicate user to create his account by entering his user name, password and other data.
how can i implement the program to check if the user name has been taken
, then go back to tell user that his user name can not be taken.
otherwise, go on the store whole data entered by the user.
thanksSorry I forgot to mention speed is just not an issue
on a single record lookup.
rykk
so it means if you want to check a single record exists or not in db > for 100 times, either you will create a new database connection 100
times or you will use the connection from pool, I think both the
cases are slower than doing a lookup in hashtable. Of course it is slower. The point is it does not matter if it is slower as users will be logging on 1 at a time over a period of time. The time to establish a connection (assuming you are not using connection pooling), query for a single record and close the connection is exceptionally quick. This is assuming you have a server that is even close to adquate. The only time to worry is if your server is loaded beyond capacity and any query is degrading other user functions. In normal systems the user will be interacting with the database in all the various functions they perform - it is much more important to worry about efficency in these functions.

My safari browser seems to have been taken over by a malicious program called only-search. Does any one know how to uninstall this program from safari? I am running osX 10.10.
There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
I have tried to purchase Adobe Acrobat Professional XI this morning and payment (AED 1983.53) has been taken, I received a message stating there was/is a problem processing my order and that I should contact your customer service team in UAE. Having tried this, I was met with a recorded message, in Arabic, and no options to speak to anyone. I have found this process extremely frustrating and poor on your behalf. Not providing any options to speak to an Adobe representative is equally annoying. Please get back to me ASAP, as I need to use the product immediately.
CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back. So probably won't run on modern operating systems. If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

Report issue , logical name of the system has been changed
Hi
Recently our system has been upgraded to ECC5.0. In a particular report while drilling down we get error. The error says the original doc can not be shown as it belongs to logical system ( DRH-123) . Now we know that this logical name of the system was in old box . The new logical name is DRH-100 . We are saying it's a basis issue and the basis team is saying it's FICO issue.Has any body encountered this type of problem. ? In my report i have never mentioned logical name of the system.Hence unable to understand it. But so far what I have understood , that the each box has been partioned and given a system name which is called logical name.Now that logical name they have changed in new box.My initial response was change the logical name but basis says that is a big task and more over it has been a while when they changed it.
Gurus, Kindly shed some light on this mess.
Thanks in advance

You may also want to get in touch with the person who was involved in developing LS. Talk with your ABAPer, they normally have an idea about these things (well atleast my ABAPer knows!)

I've got an iMac & an iPhone 5. I have been having issues when I have been saving events on 1 device & it has been getting over written & deleted by other device. Up until now it had been items that were not hugely important until now!!! I have a daily repeated event that I update on a Dailey basis so that I can keep a record of events for my job so that I can compile a report. The daily event is still in both diaries but any extra info that has been put in has been lost? So I have lost a month & a half a worth of data!!!
Does anyone know if there is a way of getting this back, can you view you iCal history at all?We need to know more about your system, please download EtreCheck and run the report and please post it on your next reply. Then we can see how your system is configured, what apps are on it and look for anything obvious. We will look forward to seeing your report.

HT204053 can i sign up for icloud find my ipad after it has been taken
I have lost or my ipad2 has been taken. How do I locate it if I have my apple id and password but didnt load the app prior to it being taken.
You can go into Settings, choose General (on the left side), then choose Software Update on the right side. This should tell you which iOS (operating system) you are presently using. No doubt it will tell you there is an update.
You will need to connect your iPad to your computer and update it through iTunes to the latest iOS, which is iOS6. Once your iPad is connected via the cable to your computer, launch iTunes. The iPad will appear in the bar on the left, click on it and you will be able to see the General Information about the iPad. You will likely get a pop-up window notifying you there is a new iOS as soon as iTunes recognizes your iPad. Then iTunes will ask if you want to download and update to the new iOS. Do that. It will take probably 20-30 minutes depending on your computer and your iPad. After the update has finished, you will need to enable iCloud which will allow you to use the Find my iPad app. Please read about iCloud from the Apple Support Site BEFORE you enable it at http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/ Good luck. -
I was promised 1GB for life when I got my tablet in May of this year, BUT it has been taken away and I was told it cannot be restored because the promotion has ended. I WANT MY 1GB FOR LIFE PUT BACK ON MY ACCOUNT AS PROMISED WHEN I GOT MY TABLET!
Contact your states attorney generals office.
If you can prove it was for life and it was taken away that would be a case for State Attorney Generals all over the USA.
if they did it to you they must have done it to others.
Be be careful, make sure it really was for life.
Good Luck
