Openbox and gnome3 don't start correctly

To specify I am talking about them separately, not openbox as the WM for gnome3.
When I start openbox-session, openbox starts properly, but fails to start anything in ~/.config/openbox/autostart. It was starting it until fairly recently.
When I attempt to start gnome 3, X almost immediatly crashes.
This may or may not be connected to another issue I'm having: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 4#p1265254
Any other info you need, I will be happy to provide, thanks.

Fixed both issues. Autostart was fixed by disabling some random services in systemd that conflicted. Gnome3 was fixed by updating arch.

Both Illustrator and Indesign don't start, what to do?

I use Adobe Creative Cloud. Since a month or two, both Illustrator and InDesign won't start up anymore. I've followed the instructions below, but they don't help. I have no clue what causes this. I'm using a late 2011 macbook pro, running OSX Mountain Lion.
Please uninstall and reinstall the product.
If this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.

and i can choose in slim between gnome and openbox.
The Problem is when i choose openbox all i see is a grey background and the mouse cursor. After that i come back to the login window. What I'm doing wrong ?

In gnome nautilus draws on the desktop, see the openbox wiki if you want to run openbox as the wm in a gnome environment.
Otherwise to run openbox as a standalone wm all you get by default is a grey screen and a mouse, as you have already encountered and others have mentioned. See our wiki on how to set up common things like setting the wallpaper and drawing icons on the desktop (if you want that).

Internet stops working after 10 mins and apps do not start correctly

Hi!
I can use my Macbook pro for ten minutes after I turned it on. Then the followings happens:
Safari crashes (also tried Chrome and Firefox) -> The loading bar does not complete and I cannot access any homepage.
Some apps like iTunes, Pages,... do not start completely. -> I click on the symbol, the white point beneath it appears but nothing more happens.
I hope that somebody can help me with it.

How are you accessing the internet? If by Airport, then what happens if you try ethernet?
It might be worth running the extended version of the Apple hardware test right after you lose connection to the internet. I'm wondering if you might have a problem of some sort with the airport card which is triggered by heat or something like that? If so, you might get an error code that would point to the problem.
Also try running SMART Utility to check out the physical health of your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/systemdiskutilities/smartutility.html
You can download the demo and run it several times for free. If your hard drive is going south, that could be a contributing factor to your other problems.
You have the early 2010 MBP? If so, you are still under the 1 year warranty, and if there is a hardware problem, it should be covered. Be sure to report your problem to Apple and get a case number before your warranty runs out so that if you do have hardware issues, they can be fixed under warranty. If you do not already have 3 year Applecare, consider getting it while you still can.
Good luck!

Quicktime movies with both pics and videos don't upload correctly to YouTub

I have a Quicktime movie with pictures, video clips and music. The quicktime movie plays fine in Quicktime, but only the video parts upload to YouTube. How do I fix this? I have tried converting from mov to flv before uploading and same problem.
I have uploaded Quicktime movies successfully with just pics and music and it has worked.

I'm hopeful this explanation will fix this same problem I've been banging my head on for several days now as I thought I would get fancy and add some graphics from .jpgs but stretch them into video segments by properly adding them to the working video in QTPro on Windows. Both Youtube and Yahoo Video removed my graphics (tracks) so hopefully flattening will solve it however I am concerned about quality.
Before the graphic .jpg adds I was doing the following:
1. My vids strart off as MP4's from various clips taken from nother device. I load them into QT Pro in segments and then end up saving so they go to the .MOV format.
2. I upload to Youtube and all is good.
Now with the flattening of .MOV back to MP4's how much quality will I lose? Should I really add the graphics as part of step one and then the one time save to a default .mov cause me one generation less of video quality loss?
Tks for the help.

I have two bugs. Quicktime don't record screen recording and Safari don't open correctly Feed Rss

I can't record a screen recording using Quicktime and Safari can't open feed Rss.
See my video for more details

Safari no longer supports RSS. You'll need an RSS app like NetNewsWire

Safari and Firefox don't start

A particular website I use for work was giving me an error that seemed to refer to a javascript problem.
So I downloaded a few files and installed them in Mac HD > Library > Internet Plug-Ins ... they didn't seem to do anything. Computer crashed (coincidentally I believe) and then upon restart neither of my browsers work at all.
So I then deleted the new javascript files and restarted. Still nothing. Tried replacing the whole directory with same one from similarly spec'd machine... I have tried restarting. I have tried as other user. I have tried reinstalling. Deleting Safari preferences file... no internet.
Please help!

Aye. Thank you Bee.
So, in trying to fix I really got myself into a pickle here. I can't remember the plugins or even what the specific error was (something like "JSP not working" or something that when i googled it, was a javascript thing – which totally made sense in the application i was using) and the solution was to put these two files in Library > Internet Plugins and I'd be good to go. And when that seemed to cause a problem, and deleting just those two and restarting didn't solve it, I replaced the whole folder with the Internet Plugins folder from another similar machine. The problem is I can't view my history so I can't figure out what it was and I deleted and emptied the trash thinking that might help. This is like a "what not to do" column isn't it?
The particular website that I was originally having a problem with is a website run by Kodak that our magazine printer uses for uploading and approval... a site we are constantly having compatibility issues with. It was an error internal to the site – not a safari/firefox error.
Firefox is equally trashed
Any ideas on troubleshooting even?

Kmix and Klipper crashes and don't start, KDE 4.4 [SOLVED]

Openbox and locales issue

Hi !
I have just realised that i can't see anything in Greek (my language ) .
I used to be able to do this with gnome but not with openbox . So subtitles and documents don't display correctly .
I have xorg-fonts-encodings installed and greek locales .
So what might be the issue ?
THanks!

T61 Window 7 don't start without power cable

I have T61 think pad with windows 7 64 bits and windows don't start with the battery only but they start when the electrical cable is plugged. It's very strange, please help me.

Try booting to bios screen then insert a fully charged battery and unplug the power, if the laptop shuts off, then you have a motherboard problem, however I would definitely test the batteries in another computer just to make sure they work before you replace your board.
If it does run off the battery when the power is unplugged, but won't start with just the battery, try removing the battery and ac power and press the start button ten times holding 5 seconds each, then 30 seconds on the last time, then replace power and battery and try again. If that doesn't help you can try removing the cmos battery too and and repeating this step, but in most cases this too indicates a system board failure.
Good Luck
