The speed came back on the 26th Sept, but now I get random diconnections.
Ive put up with it for 10 days now and its getting worse.
My ip profile stays the same and my speed stays the same aswell.
I can be surfing the net and bang it drops its connection, then its takes several minutes to reconnect.
Even when the router shows there is a connection with the lights, the web browser shows an error

New problem with camera and imovie 08

i have two questions already posted about my camera not being found by imovie 08 except that it did it the first time and wouldn't any time after that.
well here's the new problem. as i'm sitting here trying to find some other post that could help me with my dilemna imovie opens and shows my impost screen but says "communication error". with my first joy and imovie working again came confusion about this error. the error makes it so i cannot import video because the next "error" that comes up says my camera is disconnected or off but even this is farther than i've gotten in weeks. i don't know what this error means and i still can't import video. anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this?

Hi
Test another FW-Cable.
Test Your Camera on another Mac so that DV-in still works OK
Toogle in iMovie pref: Play-back via Camera (on<->off some times)
Other ways to import Your miniDV tape:
Use another Camera. There where tape play-back stations from SONY
but they costed about 2-4 times a normal miniDV Camera.
If Your Camera works on another Mac. Make an iMovie movie project here and move it
over to Your Mac via an external hard disk.
(HAS TO BE Mac OS Exchange formatted - USB/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange WILL NOT DO)
(Should be a FireWire one - USB/USB2 performs badly)
What Camcorder ?
FireWire - Sure not using the accompany USB-Cable but bought a 4-pin to 6-pin FW one ?
Using WHAT ? :
• Mac OS - X.5.4 ?
• QuickTime version ? (This is the heart in both iMovie and FinalCut)
• iMovie 8 (7.1.?) ?
• iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4/3) ?
Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? (Others don't count)
Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?
Sorry to say it is to easy to turn the 6-pin end of the FW-cable 180 deg wrong.
This is lethal to the A/D-chip in the Camera = needs an expensive repair.
(Hard to find out - else than import/export to another Mac ceased to work
everything else is OK eg recording and playback to TV)
Delete iMovie pref file may help sometimes. I rather start a new account, log into
this and have a re-try.
from LKN 1935:
Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935
from Karsten:
in addition to Bengt's excellent '9 yards of advice' ..
camera set to 'Play' , not rec/computer/etc.?
camera not on battery, but power-line?
did your Mac 'recognize' this camera before...?
a technical check:
connect camera, on, playback, fw-connected...
click on the Blue Apple, upper left of your screen ..
choose 'About../More..
under Firewire.. what do you read..?
Yours Bengt W

No Internet available for TV or Blu Ray systems - new problem

I am unable to connect any TV or entertainment device to the Internet - Samsung TV, Samsung Blu Ray / Entertainment system, and Sony Blu Ray / Entertainment system. All 3 of these devices have a good connection to my Apple Airport AND my FIOS router, but nothing beyond that.
Called support and was able to convince the tech that I can connect all my PCs, Android, and Apple devices to the Internet via my FIOS connection, but I am unable to connect anything that is a TV or Blu Ray device. Connection to the Verizon provided router is good. He said there is an outage, but they are sending a new router to replace my outdated one.
This is a new problem, either happened Monday the 23rd or today. Sunday Feb 22 I was using my Samsung to watch Netflix all night.
Anyone else have this issue? New router will be in on Thursday, will set up and report back...
James
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I lost internet connection last night to Amazon prime and Netflix through my Sony Blueray player MODEL BD-570. Called Verizon tech support and with help we checked the router,cable box and internet connection. All equipment and services checked out ok except the Sony Blueray Player which could not connect to my paid services. It gave me the following message: "A network error has occured : REFERENCE ERROR CODE 303."
The next morning Googled: Sony error code 303. I learned many other people had the same issue more than once with Sony. They had lost connection service for as long as two weeks. Their calls to Sony were disconnected. ? Some people had the newer Sony BD-590 player so it's not only my model but problems at Sony.
I have a solution to the issue. I am going to buy a ROKU 3 and install it as my new streaming device.
The Sony BD 570 and other players are after all primarily a Disk Players with add on connections. A bit like a "swiss army Knife".
The ROKU is First a streaming device with extra options. Perhaps the inverse design.
I hope this helps you and saves you the lost time I have spent on this problem. Samsung has also had simular issues.
You may also have a failed internet connection board/section in your player and the disc player will function normally.

New problem...SSD drive is no longer recognized

OK, I was having the memory issues so I went out and bought new memory that is supposed to be compatible (GSKILL 2x4 MB 1333 DDR3), and now I have a brand new problem. My SSD is no longer recognized, so I can't boot my OS. I've tried swapping ports, swapping cables, cleared CMOS...I even put the WINDOWS 7 Disc in to see if it would find the drive in the install screen, but it says no hard drive found.
Anybody know the issue I may be having now?

I had a similar issue, my BIOS wouldnt recognize my Intel X25 after a blue screen in AHCI mode.
In the BIOS I had to switch the controller type to Standard IDE. This made the drive visible again but to make it operable under AHCI, I had to use a Hex Editor from a DOS Boot Disk, and manually erase the first few sectors of the drive.
Then I could switch the controller back to AHCI in the BIOS and repartition/reinstall Windows - Until the next blue screen .
Obviously, doing this erases the MBR, allocation tables and partition table, and therefore makes ALL data on the drive inaccessible.

New problem printing from InDesign CS4 in Lion

After having great success with Aisolve's earlier fix on printing from InDesign CS4 after upgrading to Lion, I'm having a new problems after installing the OS X 10.7.2 upgrade last week. When I try to print from InDesign CS4 and Illustrator CS4 to my Lanier 445c/Ricoh C4500 at my workplace I get the following error message:
"Printing Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem."
This seems like a different issue this time, as I'm able to print to my home printers, an HP LasertJet 2600n and an HP Photosmart C4270. I thought it might be a printer driver problems, but I've gone to Lanier's site and they don't have any new printer drivers for Mac OS X 10.7.
I also some research on Adobe's site, and found this message affecting CS1, 2 & 3. I tried the only fix that seemed to apply to me, which was re-naming/deleting the InDesign Deafults and InDesign SavedData files. (I have this problems even when I'm printing a text-only file without any graphics.) This fix didn't work.
I can print to the Lanier/Ricoh from Acrobat 9, and all my non-Adobe software just fine, so my work-around to date has been exporting to PDF and printing from there. My big problem is that I need the "Print Booklet" feature in InDesign for a big job I've got coming up this week. Can't do that from Acrobat. :-(
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

mmsteer,
I think I may be able to help you with this problem, which I was having with CS4 when I first upgraded to Lion, and others were having with CS3. This fix is courtesy of Aisolve on these discussion boards:
Remove the Adobe PDF PPDs from the following folders:
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/en.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_CN.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Ja.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/ko.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_TW.lproj,
Be sure to go to your system Library, not your user Library.
Also, regarding my current problem, I spoke with an Apple tech person and found that the 10.7.2 upgrade apparently is the culprit, and is incompatible with wireless printing to my Lanier printer. I CAN print connected through USB. That's a work-around for now, but I'll need to contact Lanier about upgrading their driver for OS X 10.7.2.
Aisolve was helping me with this issue, too, and assures me that if I'm able to generate a postscript file (which I was), and able to generate a PDF by distlling it through Adobe Distiller (which I am), then I can safely assume that the problem lies with the hardware, in this case the printer driver. This lines up with what Apple told me.

Two new problems with the Quicktime Plug-in

I recently discovered two new problems with the current Quicktime Plug-in for Mac OS X.
First, the Quicktime Plug-in is unable to stream Quicktime media in any internet browsers other than Safari.
There is just nothing on the spot where the embedded Quicktime player should be.
Second, the Quicktime Plug-in only shows the message "The operation couldn't be completed. This file is not a movie file (-2048)"
everytime it should work together with the Flip4Mac Plug-in. The thing is, when facing a webpage where a wmv or wma file is
embedded, there only shows that error message on the spot where the player should exist. I first thought that it would be a
problem with Flip4Mac. So I uploaded about this problem on telestream.net, only to hear that the error message above belongs
to the Quicktime Plug-in.
Both of these problems did not happen at all only three weeks ago. The embedded Quicktime player showed up without any problem
in my Firefox and Opera, and wmv or wma files were streamed successfully through the Flip4Mac and Quicktime Plug-ins.
Then, suddenly, after some point, these two problems began to occur, and there is no information on how to solve them on the web.
I obviously tried uninstalling and reinstalling Quicktime. I even completely erased the hard disk of my Macbook, and reinstalled the
whole Mac OS X. But the problems still remained. I borrowed another Macbook from my friend to check whether these problems
occur in other computers, and they did occur in my friend's Macbook as well. So they are definitely not the matter of my own Macbook only.
I think these might be the problems with the new Quicktime Plug-in 7.7.1.
Please check about these problems and solve them on the next version of the Quicktime Plug-in.
I will give you a couple of hyperlinks so that you can check about the problems directly.

↑ This link is for the second problem (the error message showing up on the spot where a wmv or wma file should be streamed)
p.s: I am sorry that I am Korean.

I recommend that you repeat all this via

to make sure that Apple will see it.

Works perfectly fine for me with the latest Reader version (11.0.09).
You write that it worked "before"; before what? An update? Update from what version to what version?

My IPhone 3G reception fixed, a new problem - AT&T *real* data speeds

I've read quite a few topics on this forum regarding the poor IPhone 3G reception, and unfortunately 99% of them are emotions, making it very laborious to distill useful info out of them.
Therefore I'd like to post my personal experience so far with IPhone 3g, listing more facts, than emotions. *I hope this will help some of you, and also hope that others will follow a more structured approach to reporting IPhone 3g problems*.
*IPhone 3G Model MB046LL, 2.0.1 firmware*
I got my IPhone 3g black 16gb version in NJ on August 2nd, model MB046LL. I work in IT, and I was overall very impressed with all of its features. However, the device had 2 major problems - 3g reception was highly unstable, and the actual 3g data speeds were far lower than advertised, 200kb on average for download and 30kb on average for upload.
I called AT&T, they said I was in the zone with "the best 3g coverage". I went to an AT&T store, and had my SIM card swapped from #3022 to a newer one, #4022. Swapping the SIM card drastically improved both 3g reception and the data speeds.
Unfortunately, I noticed that my IPhone 3g was picking up not as many bars of 3g as other Iphone 3g sitting next to me. The actual dbm numbers for 3g were also smaller. I would continue having dropped calls. I also noticed that my battery would fully recharge very fast (within 1.3 hours), and would fully discharge much faster than it was advertised. The GPS was acting weird, and the voice quality would sometimes be horrible even with 5 bars of 3g. There were more anomalies with that phone, e.g. download speed of 20-30kb with 5 bars of 3g, among other things. I would diligently take screenshots of every anomaly I saw, and store them on the phone. Restoring the phone to its factory state did not help.
After some time, I concluded there was still something wrong my IPhone, scheduled a Genius Bar appointment, and had it replaced with a brand new IPhone 3g. Having numerous screenshots of different problems minimized the explanations to a minimum.
*IPhone 3G Model MB048LL, 2.0.1 firmware*
I had a chance to compare the new model with the previous one I had - the build felt a bit different. The screen on this new model has a slightly better contrast, too (compared default factory settings).
*The new model, however, has GREAT 3g reception*. Where with the previous model I had 2-3 bars of 3g, I now have 5 bars. The dbm numbers are also somewhat improved. I had a couple of small issues with apps, etc., but I figured them out - found which apps were crashing the system, and deleted them, cleaned up the old backups and the crash diagnostic crash reports from the previous model, etc. Finally all other problems I was having with the previous model are now gone, too, except the quirkiness of the GPS, but I suspect it's the new firmware, and not much I can do about it. I have yet to see a dropped call on this new model.
However this new model identified a new problem, something that I'd suspected for some time: it appears that the problems people are having could indeed be the combination of IPhone hardware/software and AT&T network.
I noticed the data speeds vary significantly throughout the day, even when you sit at the same desk. I noticed the speed drops significantly approximately during lunch time to ~90-300kb for download, would be ok during the day (~200-350kb for download), and would be AWESOME after 10pm - ~0.9 - 1.4Mbs.
One can make a conclusion here that AT&T simply does not have enough network capacity to handle the peak data load, when many people connect on the network. It could be that IPhone's software does not manage very well under such conditions, but I'd would place more blame on AT&T in this case, considering how exceptionally well IPhone performs during other times.
I'd like to point out that although both Apple and AT&T reps were genuinely trying to be helpful, I could clearly see that not one person I talked to on both sides did not have a clear solution how to resolve the problems I was having. Basically, I had to figure out what the problem could be, and use the resources available to try to solve it - be that replacing the phone, restoring from backups, monitoring the crash logs for problematic apps, etc.

I would constructively suggest that you edit your post pretty quickly if you want to avoid a highly deserved, verbal battering from every unemotional, highly rational and intelligent poster on this forum who might take offence to your demeaning attitude. I think to assume that because people who have posted on here have posted at all because they are emotional basket-cases, or in some way out of control of their emotions merely because they have aired their disappointment/disgust/anger with their sub-functioning iPhones is pretty insulting and undeserved. Whatever YOU have written here, or have experienced elsewhere, still only has the value of 1 (ONE). It is a poll of 1. It is an opinion of 1. No more valid than that, no more authority than that.

I have a MAC running 10.6. I cant get firefox to connect to the internet unless I first open Safari and connect. Firefox works fine after that. This is a new problem on my machine How do I correct for this?

When I boot my Mac (Snowleapord 10.6) and attempt to start Firefox, the system alerts me that it cannot find the internet and requests that I try again. It is not until I start Safari, establish a connection that I can get firefox to work. This is a new problem. Until recently, things worked fine. How do I resolve this issue?

Same proble here, although the Firefox system requirements says it is OK to have PowerPC G3 G4 or G5 ( I have G5 2GHZ)
My solution; very simply use timemachine to restore the previous Frefox 3.x
worked great in 3 mns

Old Problem/New Problem: Lightroom can't find file, then finds, but won't edit it.

(Lightroom 2; Macintosh G5; OS X (10.4.11))
First, the old problem which, though unresolved, is here mostly for background:
A little over a month ago, I posted a question (at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/480423?tstart=0 ).
The short version of that problem is that certain previously accessible images were not able to be opened in Lighroom. The preview image appeared in the main window accompanied by this message across the top of it:
"The file named "[name of image/file]" is offline or missing."
When I right clicked on the image and selected "Show in finder" I got this message:
"The photo '[name of file]' could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
Below which was shown the original path to the file. In the middle of that path, one or more folders appeared with colons in their names in place of the slashes originally part of the names (some folders have dates in their names). Following the path via the Finder, the file was exactly where it was supposed to be, although, of course, slashes appeared instead of the colons that were in the Lightroom summary of the original path, but Lightroom couldn't find them.
I was convinced that Lightroom was renaming the folders (but only in its interface; the original folders had correct names in the finder -- which is the only way they could have been named, since colons are illegal characters and won't be accepted as part of a file name). But I see now that there is some weird thing going on in the Finder itself. Even though I see the correct name on a folder when I search for it, or navigate through the hierarchy, if I click on the file at the end of that hierarchy (the file that Lightroom said it couldn't find) and ask for file info (via Command - I, or other method), the path to that file shows colons where slashes should be, but only in the names of the folders that were so named in Lightroom. All other folders with slashes in their names are listed correctly. So it's a Finder problem. Though this is still a mystery, I have been able to work around the problem. But how is this happening? (Note that I will be reformulating the question and posting it on the Apple discussion groups soon; I don't expect this forum to deal with Apple system issues. Just thought that others here may have had the same problem.)
Now, the new problem, possibly related to the old one:
In the same collection where I noted the previous problem, I selected an image that I wanted to print. The preview came up with this message:
"The file could not be found."
But when I right click on the image and select "Show in finder" it opens the correct Finder window with the file in question highlighted. The file, a TIFF, opens normally in Preview or Photoshop.
So why does Lightroom think it's not there? (even though it can show me exactly where it is)
I have edited this photo in Lightroom before. I have printed it from Lightroom before (as shown in the Lightroom history). But today it can't be edited, won't print and "could not be found"!!!
I know I can print from Photoshop, or re-import this photo into Lightroom (along with any others that Lightroom "can't find"), though both would require time and re-editing the original. I would rather understand (if that's possible) why this is happening in the first place, so hopefully I can avoid such wackiness in the future.
I realize that may have to burn some sage and hire a Shaman, but any ideas that won't smoke up the house or scare the cats would be most welcome.
Thanks for reading.

If you have an old goat around that's not doing so well, consider the sacrifice.
The one thing that occurs to me besides the Gremlin, is the use of colons or slashes or some other character that the OS or LR doesn't like in some file name or other. I think you'd have to change same in Finder, then show LR where the images are.

A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail. When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name.

A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail. When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name. I have gone to the window pop-down to 'previous recipients' and deleted that addressee as well as all the email addresses it is assigning to that name. I have also deleted the account entirely from my address book. I have have run repair permissions and also full defrag in iDefrag. Still the problem persists. Any suggestions?

Hello CarolineLongEaton,
I noticed you posted this problem quite a while ago and wondered if you managed to have it fixed in an alternative way then posting here. It is too bad no one has posted a solution here. I have a similar problem and if you have had yours solved since this occurance how you accomplished it may help me with mine. I am interested to know what you have done about yours.
If you are interested in comparing the problems to see if your solution (if you have found one) might help me also then here is the link to the discussion.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6116927
If your problem has not been solved then I will comment here again if/when my issue is resolved as it may help you too. My hope here is that we may help each other. To quote you "all ideas gratefuly recieved". I hope your problem was resolved, ernestly for your sake and selfishly for mine also. I wish you and yours a great day!
