Option 'force' not recognized

I was about compiling libffi and pacman threw an error on me.
unrecognized option
The PKGBUILD has as options
options=('!libtool' 'force')
I deleted the force part and everything went well. So what does this force thing anyway? The wiki is a bit silent about this...
I guess that something that got omitted over the course of time. Right or wrong?

That would be good, yes. The change is pretty recent, and some packages can go years without being rebuilt (so something like that wouldn't be caught).

    I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
    If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
    Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
    Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
    Do cleanup.

  • Recently, iTunes upgraded.  My 7th generation iPod is now not recognized and I cannot sync.  The troubleshooting talks  about being visible in Windows (iPod is invisible)  No other options and nothing about windows 8

    Recently, iTunes upgraded.  My 7th generation iPod is now not recognized and I cannot sync.  The troubleshooting talks  about being visible in Windows (iPod is invisible)  No other options and nothing about windows 8

    I have had similar issues with mine, happens mainly if I transfer songs and then decide to disconnect my iPod to listen to them with my IEMs (I use Interenet Explorer in my case and it is not neccessarely up when this happens, so I seriously doubt it is an issue conencted to the web browser). I have no patience for this so my trick is I try to eject it from iTunes, if that does not work, then I bring Windows explorer up, right mouse click on the iPod mounted drive and select Eject. It gives me the same warning but there is a third button selection called Continue. When I choose that it just disconnets the drive anyway and the iPod is finally disconnected. It seems to work each and every time I do it so this solution is fine for me. Would be intersting to see what the real root cause of this is because I started getting this problem with the newer iTunes 11.

  • TS3230 from a macbook air, osx 10.7.5, am trying to enter OPM/e-qip application but told system not recognized, to go to tools, options, advanced, encryption, enable ssl3.0 and tis 1.o.  How do I get to "Tools"?

    I am trying to enter OPM/E-QIP Application but am told browser is not recognized, to go to: tools, options, advanced, encrytion, enable, SSL3.0 and TLS 1.0.  How to get to Tools?

    Here's what OPM says to do to configure Safari, if that's the browser you're using (sort of; their instructions wouldn't get you where you need to be with Safari 5.1.7:
    1) Select Safari, then Preferences from the menubar.
    2) Click Advanced
    3) Click the check box next to "Show Develop Menu in the Menu Bar"
    4) Close the Preferences window
    5) Select Develop from the menubar
    6) Select User Agent, then "an appropriate browser" (OPM's words); they suggest Firefox for the Mac
    This information came from their Quick Reference Guide (other than correcting an error about how to set the user agent), and I haven't tested it.  If this doesn't work, you probably need to ask OPM (or their contractor) how to use the site with a Mac ...

  • USB flash drive not recognized by computer. Have tried all options of which I can think.

    Okay.  I have a Patriot S-Mini 32GB flash drive that my Windows 8.1 HP Slimline 400-434 is not recognizing. I believe it recognized it once, and has refused to do so since. My laptop (Windows 7 Toshiba) recognizes it just fine. 
    All other USB devices function perfectly on this computer. USB mouse/keyboard/USB Hub/Apple iPhone cable.
    1. I have tried unplugging all other USB devices before trying this one. FAIL
    2. I have gone to Device Management and the USB drive does not appear in the list. FAIL
    3. I have uninstalled the USB Root Hubs and restarted the computer. FAIL
    4. I have tried plugging the USB drive into the rear ports that plug directly into the motherboard. FAIL
    5. I have updated the drivers, and have been unable to find a BIOS update as the link on the HP website downloads and says that it is incompatible for my computer. FAIL
    ...so what the bloody gorram heck do I do now? 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Okay, and in the most ridiculous way I have ever solved a technical problem...
    The USB flash cannot be inserted ALL the way into the port. It has to be inserted slowly, so that the contacts line up. 
    I figured this out by trying to connect it into my USB hub and noticing that the red indicator light was going on and off as I inserted the USB drive, flickering on as I inserted it and then off once it was all the way in. 
    Weird. But hey. It works now. 

  • IPod Shuffle Not Recognized In Windows Or iTunes v7.0 - What Now?

    Hello everyone,
    I am having the same problem as many who have posted here. I have upgraded my software to iTunes v7.0.1.8. I also accepted the auto update for my iPod Shuffle - 512GB 1st Gen to v 1.44 (I believe). Of course, now my Shuffle is not recognized in iTunes and is only recognized in Windows for less than 5 seconds (as I have monitored it). I am listing below all of the actions I have taken today.
    As none of these have worked, my question is now what? Does anyone have any other suggestions before I take the dreaded step of calling support? Any help is appreciated.
    I am not happy with this upgrade issue at all. I expect much better from Apple.
    Steps Already Taken:
    1. Reset iPod.
    2. Set Terminal Services to "Manual" and restarted my laptop PC.
    3. Changed all USB Root Hub entries power management options to "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option" and rebooted.
    4. Assigned my external hard drive a different letter as it was assigned to "E" and tech support documentation suggested I changed it - I changed it to "M".
    5. I stopped the iPod Service via the Services and Application interface from My Computer/Manage, reattached the Shuffle, and started the iPod Service. The Shuffle was still not recognized.
    6. I uninstalled iTunes 7.0.1.8, the Apple Software update and QuickTime. I deleted all temp directories; program files folders and all possible traces of all three pieces of this software. I also deleted my iTunes library. I reinstalled all of this software and re-built my Library. NONE OF THIS WORKED!
    My 30GB Video iPod works fine and always has - it is only the shuffle for which I have this issue any only since the upgrade.
    What do I do now? If no one has another fix, I will be forced to call Tech Support after an experience with them over a year ago I would almost rather throw this thing away!

    qswh - I too cannot play the songs that are loaded on the shuffle. Additionally, I get a green & orange light when I plug it into a USB port and then I either get a blinking orange light or a solid orange light from there after.

  • Intermittent : The term 'get-date' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

    I have developed a batch harness whereby all scheduled tasks (W2012) invoke a common powershell script that acts as a wrapper to all our housekeeping jobs.
    The first step in the wrapper is to create a Transcript file using following code
    if ($Host.name -ne "Windows PowerShell ISE Host") # Transcript does not work within ISE
    $timestamp = (get-date -format "yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm-ss.fff")
    $path = "c:\corp\$timestamp" + "_$pid.txt"
    Start-Transcript -path $path -append
    As expected the folder contains files with timestamp & pid in name

  • IPod not recognized (but with other symptoms than on the help pages)

    Hey people,
    My iPod is not recognized by windows (vista). I did take a look on the help pages, but nothing helps.
    When I connect my iPod, after a minute or so I get a message from windows saying "Do you want to check and repair the IPOD OF JASPER?" (sorry for the translation, I actually get the message in dutch). Then I can choose of two options, yes or no...
    When I click yes, it gives an error 'Could not be completed because the disk is not ready.'.
    When I click no, I get a message from iTunes saying 'iPod could net be recognized, please disconnect and try again.'
    Yesterday, it did show up in iTunes, but then iTunes immediately froze and my explorer (taskbar/windows explorer) too. I had to turn off the computer by pressing and holding the off/on button...
    What's even weirder; When I initially installed this iPod, it all worked. I put music on it, all fine. Then the second time i connected it, this things mentioned above happened. Then a few days ago, it suddenly connected in the right way. And now it isn't anymore....
    Anyone please help?!
    I hope this is not any of those stupid security things of vista....
    Greeting, Japzerr

  • IPhone 3g won't turn on, and not recognized by iTunes after erase/reset

    My iPhone G3 (with the latest 4.0.1 software) was acting up so I decided to do an erase/restore to see if it helped the problems.
    I did a reset/erase everything through the phone OS now all I get is the Apple start screen, and the phone does not start up. When I plug connect it to my computer the iPhone is not recognized.
    Clueless!! Any help?

    See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. Select restore as new, follow by syncing your itunes content.

  • External hard drive clicking and not recognized by mac will DiskWarrior work?

    First of all apologizes if I've posted in the wrong community I couldn't find one that really fit my particular query.
    I'll give a quick rundown of what happened and see if anyone can help or suggest a course of action. My Seagate External HDD model SRD0SP0 was mounted to my 2013 MacBook Air when it started to make a loud noise freezing the computer and requiring me to force shutdown the entire system. I immediately rebooted the computer and it started up again fine but when I tried plugging in the drive to the USB it would only spin and beep at regular intervals and then go quite. The drive did not mount to the desktop but I could see it in DiskUtility although the 'verify' and 'repair' options were greyed out. I tried to connect to a PC but it would not recognize the drive either. I left the drive alone for a few months and now when I plug it in it starts to fire up with the whirl sound but that is quickly followed by 5 faint ticks followed by a louder click. It almost sounds like something is dragging and the click is it coming to an end before starting up again. (I have a .m4a recording of the this but I don't see an option to upload) This goes on for about 20 seconds and then a window pops up saying something along the lines of 'this disk is not recognized by this computer' and the options to 'initialize' 'ignore' or 'eject'. I have only ever clicked eject. As before the drive is visible in DiskUtility but the options are greyed out.
    I contacted a data recovery agency and their response was:
    I would recommend to remove bare drive from the External casing and connect it to a computer directly or via another USB enclosure. If the drive is internally fine you should be able to see and copy the files. If you still get the same symptoms then your clicking hard drive most likely has internal problem with read/write heads and needs head assembly swapped from a donor. It's a very serious problem and recovery procedure in this case requires a lot of experience, use of class 100 clean room and specialized equipment.
    If stored files are not particularly important you should replace the hard drive. If you need data from the drive we could recover it for $950 USD.
    At this time I am not comfortable taking my drive apart and I can not afford close to 1k in repair costs. From my research on this forum I have seem multiple suggestions to try DiskWarrior but I am not sure that it will work with the problems that I am describing. Before I spend the money has anyone had a similar problem and had success recovering their data via DiskWarrior? Or do I have to resort to the data recovery agency or the freezer technique?

    If the drive is making clicking sounds then it will probably fail. That's evidence of a mechanical issue. DW isn''t going to fix that nor will Disk Utility. Only replacing it with a new drive will fix it. While you can you should make a backup.

  • Computer not recognizing my built in iSight

    my computer is not recognizing its camera. I have tried restarting, forcing restart, and holding keys that apple care has previously told me to hold. I checked in my system profile and it does not even show my build in isight. Does anyone have a trick that has worked for them before, or a special way to restart my computer that may fix the problem? i am leaving for europe soon and don't want to mail in my computer if i don't have to!

    I have reset the PMU twice and have reset PRAM (holding down apple-option-p-r at startup),I have also repaired disk permissions on my startup disk.
    I can get access to the built-in isight for photobooth and other apple applications but as soon as I try to enable it in VMWare Fusion it stops the VMWare machine (Windows Vista) from booting until I disconnect the iSight from VMWare.
    The iSight then disappears from the available hardware in VMWare Fusion (so I cannot reconnect it in Fusion) and I cannot access the iSight in any Apple application.
    I have Applecare... I think I'll see if I can get any help there.

  • Logic Pro 7.2.1 Update is not recognizing my 7.2.0 app.  HELP!

    grrrrr, this is so frustrating!
    Logic Pro 7.2.1 Update is not recognizing my 7.2.0 app. Any ideas?

    To prevent cheating, the updater checks the receipts
    first — receipts files look like regular package
    files, but they're actually a list of pointers to the
    files installed from that package, together with
    their attributes: location, checksums, owner,
    permissions, and so on... That's how the repair
    permissions function works.
    If you messed with your receipts folder, you may be
    out of luck: in this case, re-installing everything
    will rebuild the receipts and the updating
    should take place.
    Yet another option would be to use Pacifist:
    http://www.charlessoft.com/
    • it allows the user to create receipts for [.pkg]
    packages
    • it can be used to force installation of any file
    from a given package
    Be aware that Pacifist doesn't run any of the
    pre-install, post-install, pre-upgrade, or
    post-upgrade scripts, doesn't check already existing
    receipts, and doesn't alter the permissions
    afterwards, so you'd better know what you're doing...
    nice illustration on the repair permissions....
