OS X causes Google Earth to crash. Would appreciate some solution.

I just downloaded Mavericks and found immediately that Google Earth would crash as soon as I typed anything into the search bar or clicked on history. Tried several times to down load Google Earth again but each time the same issue occurred. Would appreciate some solution if there is one. Many thanks.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Google earth keeps crashing at start up.

My google earth keeps crashing at start up. I don't know what the problem is and I don't know how to delete all of my old kmz files. Ive tried deleting and re-installing and it still brings up my old files.
Help please?

I had what sounds like the same problem - my habit is to install software from an Admin account that I only use for that, and work in a different Standard account, but apparently the Google installer didn't set file owner/permissions right to accomodate that (not the first time I've run into this).
I promoted my usual user account to Admin, re-installed from that account, demoted back to Standard, and now all is fine. Performance is good, limited only as far as I can tell by my cable modem and/or Airport bit rate.

Would appreciate some help here still fairly new to MAC

Ok I've made the mistake of installing a program called Anacron which is supposed to help with the maintenance of OS X. Well I found out after the fact that there is no need to install ANY programs for maintenance as it is all built into the OS now. So I went to uninstall it and wow has this been a headache . First off there is NO uninstaller and when following the read me file that I found to uninstall it, part of it works and part of it doesn't. This is the information to just disable it (not delete it):
How do I disable or remove anacron?
To disable anacron, run the following commands in a terminal:
cd /Library/LaunchDaemons
sudo launchctl unload -w ./anacron.plist
cd /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
sudo launchctl load -w ./com.apple.periodic-daily.plist
sudo launchctl load -w ./com.apple.periodic-weekly.plist
sudo launchctl load -w ./com.apple.periodic-monthly.plist
The above worked, but the info which is supposed to help you delete it all together does NOT work and I would appreciate some help/comments on why it doesn't. Here is the info for deleting it:
To completely remove anacron from your system, delete (trash):
/usr/local/sbin/anacron
/usr/local/share/man/man5/anacrontab.5
/usr/local/share/man/man8/anacron.8
/Library/LaunchDaemons/anacron.plist
/etc/anacrontab
/var/spool/anacron
/Library/Receipts/Anacron.pkg
When I use Terminal to get in there and delete that stuff, when I try and delete Anacron, I'm given a list of file attributes (I guess) .. it looks something like this:
override rwxr-xr-x root/wheel for anacron?
What in the world does this mean and how in the world can I get this crap deleted from my system? Seems like everything I do is not enough to get this stuff deleted.
Thank you for your time

"Are you borrowing some frined's account, you have lots of messages here for a guy fairly new to mac"
No, the mac is mine, and this is my account. I still consider myself pretty new to MAC OS X. The time of me registering here is right at the same time I received my iMac which is just over a year. To me that is still pretty new I may have a buttload of posts, but that doesn't mean I know a lot about MAC OS X and the MAC computers.
I certainly appreciate your help with this problem. It worked flawlessly. This is very much like DOS in windows......yuk, just reflecting on the past. Thank you again, sooo much. I now feel much better, what a relief.
Edit: Oh by the way, just answering "Yes" gave me, if I remember correctly, something about forbidden. But doing it the way you described above using the sudo lines worked great and it asked me for my user password, I put it in, then everything was ok, it deleted everything I wanted it to.

Why does Google Earth search crash with 10.8.5?

Everytime I try a search using Google Earth, Google Earth crashes. It worked fine before updating the OS. I've tried reloading Google Earth, all to no avail.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Why Does Google Earth Keep Crashing On My iPad 3?

Are other users of the iPad 3 having problems with Google Earth crashing while it's loading? Mine seems to fritz out when loading a lot of 3D info, like for a large city like New York. I've tried to research if this is a common problem with iPad 3 users, but I have found very little about other people having the same issue. My iPad 3 is brand new, with the latest iOS. I have done all the resetting I can to the iPad -- soft restart, hard restart, delete/reinstall app. No good. Still crashes. The only thing I haven't done is a full restore -- and I don't see doing all that for one app that is not working. Everything else on the iPad is working just fine. And I did complain to the developer. It works great on my Macs and iPhone, just seems to hate my iPad. Can anyone tell me something useful to make this app work?

I have the exact same problem on my ipad mini. It says 'google earth is running low on memory' and crashes.

Powershell "RunAs" causing recycle bin issues. Would like some input please.

I developed a script to assist our UserAdmins with creation of AD user accounts and create home folders on the server shares. I am encountering an issue with the recycle bin becoming corrupt when the user first logs in. This script must be run
with an elevated account with permissions to the shares. I also noted a change in the way the recycle bin is displayed in the share.
The home folder is created using:
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $directory
If I log into my machine as my elevated account and run powershell/powershell_ise, all is well. The recycle bin displays as "Recycle Bin" with the correct icon image
However, if I log into my machine with my non-elevated account and select "Run as a different user" for Powershell or Powershell_ISE and use my same elevated account from above the users receive "corrupt" recycle bin errors when logging
in or viewing the recycle bin properties. Additionally, recycle bin is now listed as "$Recyle.Bin" and is using a folder icon. This issue is resolved by removing the users AD account from the home folder permissions and re-adding it with
identical permissions.
I see this behavior using Win8.1 x64 as well as Win7 x64 Enterprise.
On another somewhat relevant topic, when launching Powershell_ISE with "Run as a different user" it often freezes and must be forcibly closed. Could be relevant, could be coincidence.
I appreciate any input you may have regarding this issue.
Thanks,
Jeff

I'm trying not to come off as combative, but I feel you are misunderstanding or I am not being clear. The recycle bin is auto-created when the user first logs into the machine as is are the sub folders to the parent folder. All of the desktop.ini files,
recycle bin folders and various other user profile objects are created upon first login by that user inside of the folder created in the PowerShell script. Prior to this the user admins were manually creating the same parent folder with their elevated
accounts. Given the isolated conditions in which it works vs when it doesn't there is no indication that permissions are causing this issue.
I'll try to explain why the issue, I believe, lies with PowerShell.
1) Launch a PowerShell session from the current logged in elevated account
2) Run the script
3) Users home folder is created
4) Upon user logging in for the first time the user profile objects are created in the home folder on the share
5) No issues with recycle bin
vs - from the same machine, same script
1) Launch a PowerShell session with "Run as different user" context using the same account from above
2) Run the script
3) users home folder is created
4) Upon user logging in for the first time the user profile objects are created in the home folder on the share
5) Recycle bin is corrupt and icon is wrong
The only thing that changes between these 2 scenarios is the way in which PowerShell is run.
It's the same computer, the same test user account, the same share, same GPOs and AppSense policies.
Scenario 1 is run from elevated account logged into local machine
Scenario 2 is run from non-elevated account with "Run as different user" context using the elevated account
I know I'm sounding like a broken record but it doesn't make sense AppSense or GPO or even folder permission would cause an issue when the folder is being created using the same account in both situations.

I would appreciate some help.

Hello, I had a problem recently where my imac crashed to a blue screen while running windows in bootcamp. It appeared to be a major problem and I could no longer boot to the windows partition.
I was able to finally start my computer up on the mac partition thanks to some help from the forum there. However it appeared that the windows portion had met a fatal problem so I deleted the partition from the mac os partition. I continued to try and restall that partition but recieved an error.
After more research it appeared the error would be fixed by using disk utility to repair the hard drive. I ran the disk repair and it froze midway through. I waited an hour and it was still frozen so I restared.
After restarting there was the folder with the ? it appears my entire mac os partition was also eliminated. I now have the mac-os cd in and am attempting to re-install but am coming across a problem.
When prompted with a select destination volume to install mac os it is empty. It appears my harddrive is gone.
If i go under utilities: Disk utility there is an icon of a harddrive called "media" however i cannot verify or repair anything on it. It also displays a total capacity of 0bytes.
Under system profiler Serial-ATA it reads there was an error while scanning.
Does this all mean that my harddrive died? And if so can it be replaced by the apple store? The computer reads iMac 7,1 intel core duo.
thank you very much in advance.

It possible your iMac's HD has failed. Run Apple Hardware Test: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509 if it reports errors then yes you are due for a trip to your local Apple Store or AASP, either can repair it.
Because you don't state where you are located I'm not sure this link will work. If you are in the US then it's fine. http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
Please update your profile with more information.
Good luck,

Would appreciate some help - not sure what just happened?

This is my first post to the Forums, and I have only had my phone for a couple of days (I've never had a smartphone before either), so please bear with me if I sound completely ignorant.
I just got my HTC Droid Incredible over the weekend and I have fallen in love with it! I had no problems until just a few minutes ago. I went to answer a call, but accidentally hit the button to end the call. I just hit the "phone" button to get back into the phone dialer where I could call them back. At this point my screen just went black, and eventually brought up a little red triangle with a red exclamation point on the screen. I kept trying to turn it on but nothing would happen, so I took the battery out, put it back in, and turned it back on. It turned back on, but it brought up a screen that had a little picture of a Droid character and it had several menu options (One of them was recovery, can't remember what the other ones were). I kept hitting the volume up and power button and finally the phone turned back on, and now it seems as if everything is fine with it. Does anyone have any idea why it would do that, and what menu option I could have selected? I am afraid I did something that will mess up the phone.
Thank you in advance for your help!

I have Adobe Reader Version 11.0.03 on a new iMac OSX Version 10-8.4 and can't open PDFs. Here's the message I get: "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Any help would be appreciated!

Ambiguity in SDK ToS, would appreciate some clarification.

I currently run a web-based game which allows an optional monthly subscription. I am porting a client of the game to the iPhone. I realize that I cannot charge users outside of iTunes for any app functionality.
I'm wondering however, since this client connects to an already existing web game, if the client will be allowed through to the App Store (even if it is free) since the web game does allow optional monthly subscriptions.
Thank you in advance.

Exactly, so do you know what the ToS allow for in this case? You restated it almost perfectly, but I still don't know the answer on if it would or would not be allowed onto the App Store.
The charges would be optional and available from the web game. The iPhone client would provide another gateway to the game.

I would appreciate some help in capturing some VHS tapes into PP-CS6.

Aloha,
Just loaded CS6 and my 1st project is to convert some VHS tapes into HD DVD's. The VHS player I'm using has R/G/B Component video out & HDMI in/out. My PC video card is a Radeon 6750 with 1 x HDMI (in use for my monitor), 1 x DVI-I, and 1 x D-SUB. My mobo, a Gigabyte GA-MA78GN-US2H, has 1x D-SUB, 1 x DVI-D, & 1 x HDMI. I don't believe I can use both HDMI slots simultaneously. I'm not even sure I can use any of the onboard graphica ports while I'm using an external video card.
So my questions are; 1) which available graphic port on the video card will offer me the best VHS tape capture? 2) what are the capture settings (i.e. frame rate & resolution of most VHS tapes either home recorded or professionally recorded) that I should use?

Usually, video ports on a video card or motherboard are out only. You would need a capture card, or external box to get VHS video digitized into your computer.
For VHS tapes, I would recommend getting a Hauppauge HD-PVR available here: http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hdpvr.html
It would save you a lot of headaches and make your job much easier.
If you'd like specifics: the HD-PVR has component inputs with optical audio, along with S-video and composite connections.
I've used it to capture many VHS tapes, and never had a problem.
Good luck!

IMovie 9.0.7 will not complete the update either with the download dmg file from the apple site or from the OS software update. I would appreciate some advice.

When installing the new update 9.0.7 to iMovie either via a dmg file or from the software updater the install will not complete the installation. The indicator bar just stays in the same place with the note install time remaining about a minute. I have let it set for hours and nothing happens. Does anybody have any advice?

Try this.
After signing into the Mac App Store (MAS) with your iTunes Apple ID, look at the Purchased page. You should see the three bundled iLife apps listed with Accept buttons. After you have accepted them and Apple has verified that they came on a new Mac and assigned them to your Apple ID and iTunes/MAS account, you should be able to update them.

I'm moving to college soon, and would appreciate some help with my library.

I am moving to college in just over a week and a half and was needing some help with my iTunes library. Currently, at home, I use iTunes as my main source of music entertainment. I purchase music through the iTues Store and upload older music from CDs onto the library as well. I have made several smart playlists based off of information such as play counts and last played dates. Unfortunately, this is all on a desktop that I will be unable to bring with me to school. So I have recently purchased a laptop that I will be taking with me to school. I have already downloaded iTunes and have activated the laptop to my Apple ID. The desktop currently runs on Windows 7, while the laptop runs on Windows 8. Both are up-to-date with iTunes.
With all of that background information, here comes my question. Is there a way to have the same library on both PCs? I don't just mean the same songs, but rather have the same play counts, last played dates, playlists, etc. on both computers. Is this something that can be accomplished through the cloud or iTunes Match?

Copy the ENTIRE /Music/iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
Sync only with the new computer going forward.
Nothing will be updated on the old computer, but if you are not going to be at home using the desktop is that really relevant?

Would appreciate some help please?

Sorry if I am posting in the wrong section!
I own the C470 all in one had it two days. A couple of things; my hard drive light flashes a lot is this normal?
It seems very slow, concerned dont know what programs I can uninstall, have uninstalled the games, what else can I do? If there is a problem may need to return to amazon and ask for a replacement, any assistance please, have to say used windows 7 home premium before and could get round it okay
Many thanks Joules

The harddrive light flashing could be normal. Have you done all the windows updates? When you say it is slow, is the harddrive access slow, internet slow, or once a program has started it runs slow?

Would appreciate some help concerning Bluetooth...

I have just recently bought a Bluetooth USB for my laptop so I can easily transfer files to and from my BlackBerry and Laptop. My partners Samsung Tocco connected and transfered files fine.
My BlackBerry finds the Laptop's Bluetooth and enter both passkeys on both devices and pair up. As soon as I go to send a file, such as a ringtone or Image, I right click on the file, Send To,Bluetooth, and select the device I want to send to. I get an error message on my Bluetooth Icon in the Tray saying 'Bluetooth - The service does not exist' ???????? I've connected and paired fine with the laptop and it says it doesn't exist??? My BlackBerry doesn't seem to connect to any phone either. I have adjusted options in My BlackBerry Bluetooth Options to be Discoverable and when connect to the laptop mark Trusted - Yes on the laptop Bluetooth.
I rather not use the USB wire for my Blackberry as Bluetooth seemed so much easier, but I guess I was completely wrong. I've been trying this for a few days now and I need your help!
Thank you xxx
