Password issue after 10.8.4 update

I've got a password issue that started a couple hours after I applied the 10.8.4 update. My password isn't always accepted to wake from sleep. It's inconsistent, and a hard boot solves it for a bit but it's happened 4 times now in the last 48 hours. Any ideas?

  • Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: my husband's phone and my phone get the same phone calls ONLY when we are home.  Any suggestions on where to look to fix this?

  • Is there any fix for the bluetooth connectivity issue after most recent OS update?

    Seems to be a common problem particularly with bluetooth headseat connectivity. Any ideas?

    There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
    I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
    If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

  • IPad2 Issues after iOS 8.1 update

    iPad2 64g wifi + cellular -   very slow and non-responsive since iOS 8.1 update.  nonstandard Apps seem to be working fine.. it’s the standard item like photos and safari that don't  respond. 
    photos -  (which I use daily to show clients examples)  will freeze and kick me out back to the home page when trying to do anything from open a photo for viewing to trying to delete a photo. Edit.. forget it.   better off using an alternate app to edit a photo as it locks up and crashes every time.   I really need to be able to view the photos  on my iPad2
    safari -   good luck using any hyper link…. It doesn’t respond.   Even at Apple’s website.   Sometimes it crashes but most of the time it just ignores me like I haven’t touched the screen
    Overall - the touch screen is glitchy since the iOS 8.1 update.  It was slow after the iOS 8.0 update  but has become almost unusable after the 8.1 update.
    I cannot afford to purchase a new iPad.  And I really need to find a way to make this one work.
    I did read about how to restore to an older iOS version.   The only problems are all of my laptop is Windows based and the instructions assumed you had a Mac.   I did a backup to iTunes prior to the 8.0 update but I have also done backups since.   So I am not sure I have a “clean” iOS 7 backup.
    Any ideas would be appreciated   Thank you in advance for your help

    For the touch issues in Safari, does scrolling or zooming the page before you try to tap a link make it work again?  I've read a few posts that this may be a workaround for that issue.

  • Display Issue after 10.9.2 update

    After updating my Macbook Pro with Retina to 10.9.2 -- My display flickers for a second after sleep and or blank screen and then goes back to normal. Has anyone else been having display issues after updating?

    Yes similar problem here: I have a MacBook Pro, 15 inch Retina, Mid 2012, and when I connect a secondary display via HDMI (and also HDMI-to-Thunderbolt) then the external monitor becomes the main display.
    I have not figured out on  how to switch back to former settings. My guess: it's a bug. A quick search confirms that many others have secondary display issues since 10.9.2
    (Steve would have fired those lazy punks, who failed to do sincere testing before release …)

  • How i get by with the sleep, pause issue after 1.0.2 update

    ok. i'm sure you guys are aware of the ipod sleeping/pausing issue after updating your ipod to 1.0.2. my ipod will pause whenever it is in the jensen dock station and the green battery indicator shows up. whenever i use the dock or remote to unpause the song, a few seconds later, it pauses again. so instead of using the dock or remote to play, unpause, whatever, i connect the ipod to the dock and use the wheel to navigate and 'only' use the play/pause button on the ipod itself to kick off the playing of music. if i go back to the remote, the ipod pauses. if i only use the menu and play/pause button on the wheel, my songs do not pause. it sure was nice using the remote before 1.0.2. i mean, it did come with the dock for my remoting pleasure but alas, i shall wait on the next update. hope this helps someone.

    I will have to try that... I took my iPod to work today and plugged it into my JBL docking station and it was skipping. I did notice it seemed to go to sleep more often when I used the remote... There's a whole other forum on this maybe you could check out too. But it's really annoying and I hope Apple comes out with a fix soon! I will definitely try to use the iPod wheel tomorrow and not the remote.

  • Massive battery drain issues after the latest software update - phone hot

    After the latest software update (to the NI2 version) I have massive battery drain issues. The phone also stays hot. Even when I don't actively use the phone it seems to stay "awake" according to the stats. When I disable all data (Wifi and/or 3G/4G) it's perfectly fine. Does anyone else experience the same issues or has recommendations?

    Is the device trying to sync all your photos with the cloud?
    This is what I would do.
    Back up your photos and music onto a personal computer. Copy down important settings like for your email, and contacts you can't risk losing.. even icon placement of important apps. Diagram it out.
    Then perform a Factory reset on the device. Alternatively you might find the procedure for wiping the low level cache of the device posted in other posts on the site. That might fix the problem and avoid you losing settings and content on your device.
    Extremely bizarre behavior post updates are usually associated with low level cache issues that cause the OS to behave poorly.  Some people have reported their phones running hot and that could mean the radio is on constantly attempting to back stuff up to the cloud our restore stuff.
    Good luck.

  • Satellite 100-192: Issues after the latest MS update...

    Satellite 100-192.
    After the latest MS update I first had the problem with the Realtek sound card driver. I solved it by applying the patch MS provided.
    Now the problem is that the disc cleanup utility does not launch. Anybody any idea?

    I just found out that my disc cleanup utility would not work because of a free program called Photo Toolkit. Although it is a nice little program to quickly edit photos, apparently it causes such problems when it is loaded.

  • Wired keyboard issue after 10.9.4 update

    Hello all,
    I disconnected the Apple USB keyboard (A1243) from my MacBook Pro last night, and I started seeing an issue where my Mac would no longer power/recognize my keyboard once I reconnected it. I tried doing the steps to reset both SMC and PRAM, but still my keyboard would not work when connected. I decided to test the USB port so I connected my iPhone to it, and it connected and synched just fine. I also tested a USB drive on it and was able to copy files off it. I also took my Mac keyboard and connected it to a Windows 7 laptop, and it worked just fine. After looking at the console logs, I noticed this error showing up:
    7/4/14 8:24:40.000 PM kernel[0]: USBF:    18393.519    AppleUSBHubPort::FatalError - Port 2 of Hub at 0x14200000 reported error 0xe00002c0 while doing setting port power
    This shows each time I connect my Apple keyboard into the USB ports on my machine. I decided to try to connect the keyboard one last time just now and it finally worked. I was accidentally pressing the keys down as I connected it, and I started hearing beeping sounds from my speakers. A few seconds after that, the keyboard started typing and working correctly. I tried the same steps on the original USB port I had it on before (left side), but it's still not working at all. I suspect that this has to do with the new update I just installed as I did not have any issues before.
    Many thanks,
    Adrian C.

    To confirm what John Galt is reporting, I just tested printing this web page from OS X 10.9.4 to an old HP LaserJet here.  Worked correctly.
    In addition to what John Galt is asking, which model(s) of HP printers are involved here? 
    If you're getting error dialogs or messages in the console log (available via Console.app), please post those.
    If you're working with an IT organization and particularly with managed network switches, have you checked with IT about issues there?
    If there are any antivirus or antimalware tools in use here, remove that miasma from at least one test system, and test printing again.

  • Even more issues after installing 3.1 update.  What to do.

    HI there,
    It would seem that since I have installed 3.1 my iPhone 3Gs 32GB white is acting very strange. Heres my story...
    I have noticed the following behavior since the install. Sound randomly not working. Home button randomly not working.
    Have done a Restore
    Have removed all my applications thinking maybe an app was not compatible with the 3.1 update and therefore was causing the problems.
    ... still noticed home button issue even after removing all apps.
    ... sound issue happened once but seems OK now.
    I have read other postings about these two issues. It would seem others are experiencing the same problems. However, I found no fix for it. That is why I thought it might be an app interfering.
    As I said it still happens at random times but lately it has been working fine so I am wondering if it was an app I had installed.
    Just to add some history, this is my 2nd iphone as I had a problem with my 1st one. The one I am currently using was sent to me by my Wireless provider and it was refurbished. So I am wondering if the randomness of the home button was the reason this iphone was returned in the first place. And the problem is reoccurring. Or is it just consequence that it is happening now after I installed the 3.1 update.
    I have made an appointment at my local Apple store(genius bar) for them to have a look at it, however my luck is when I go the phone will be working fine and they will not do anything. The phone is not three months old so I fall within the 90 days warranty and I just purchased the AppleCare for iPhone as backup. I am hoping I will get a new iPhone to replace this one because it was refurbished.
    So my question is
    Do you think it was an application that was causing the issue or could it be a hardware problem with the button? Is it known fact that some iPhone apps are not 3.1 compatible and can cause issues?
    Thanks and I look forward to your replies.

  • Sound issue after )X10.5.6 update

    after updating to 5.5 i get one loud pop/crack sound when starting or wakeing my mac up from sleep.

    Hello Anton. Have you had any luck with your problem?
    I have recently noticed that my Samson CO1U USB Microphone is now very quiet and muffled when connected to my MacBook and yet it still works fine on a Windows XP machine. As it used to be fine with my Mac before the 10.5.6 update I can only assume that this latest update has caused a big problem with some USB devices. Like you, I can't get any answers.
    I am thinking of rolling back to 10.5.4 to see if I can use my Microphone again.

  • Macbook pro superdrive issues after 2.1 firmware update

    i have the 07 aluminum body macbook pro (non inibody) and after updating to snow leopard the drive started only reading certain disc and cds and spitting others back out. this is bogus because apple does not want to take responsibility in messing up 1000"s of drives they need to fix this issue or replace every drive they messed up with this update.

    Wow! You have thousands of drives, all ruined by Snow Leopard?
    Or are you just assuming that because you have a problem, everybody else has it too?

  • Managed Account permissions issues after all third party updates

    I run a lab with 34 student accounts that are "Managed" using 10.5.7. I have given students permission to use specific software and all aspects of the software in Accounts/Parental Controls. When I update Microsoft Office or Adobe CS4, I have to go into every single student account and into each individual program to "always allow" which is about 10 programs for each machine. Of coarse all the checkmarks in the parental controls are already checked off for the student account when I check under parental controls?
    Anybody having this issue. This happens on both Intel and PowerPc's.
    This happens on fresh installs of Leopard to disks that have been zeroed out, on updates from Tiger and on CC cloned machines.
    I have of coarse repaired all permissions before and after the updates.
    It is extrememely laborious to have to do this after small incremental updates to third party software.
    Actually, I've had to do it with Safari as well. It may not just be a third party issue.
    One things for certain. It is ****.
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Is DW installed on a server or is it installed on a user's desktop?  If it is installed on a server then it won't install properly because it is not designed to be run from a server because of licensing issues.  Adobe can't allow you to use one user license and then installing on a server and so used by 100 other users.When you reply please also state your operating system.

  • Issue after 10.4.11 update

    Hi friends . . . I'm sorry to bother with this small issue in my otherwise perfect Mac. I just updated to 10.4.11. I repaired permissions before and several times after the update. Before the update my screen always automatically dimmed shortly before the screensaver activated. After the OS update it remains fully bright until the screensaver comes on as set. I've checked the energy saver preferences . . .and they remain exactly the same as before the update. I even unchecked and re-checked the option . I don't think this is a huge problem, but does anyone have an idea why this has occurred. Thanks in advance for suggestions . . .

    daystar297,
    Forgive the possible repetition...
    What is your setting for System Preferences>Desktop & Screen Saver>Screen Saver>Start Screen Saver?
    Your post implies that you have checked System Preferences...>Energy Saver>Other Options:>Options [✓] Automatically reduce the brightness of the display before display sleep.
    What is your setting for "Put the display to sleep when the computer is active for:?
    You may have to click the lock to prevent further changes.

  • Wireless Issues after 10.4.7 update

    Hi all,
    My wireless connection was solid since the day I bought my Macbook Pro. I had profiles connecting to my wireless router at home and my work wireless points at work. When I recently updated my system to 10.4.7, I have had some issues with my wireless.
    Sometimes when I start my mac up, login, etc, the wireless icon in the system tray will flicker, and I have no connection to my wireless. If I disable and enable the Airport device, sometimes it just starts working. Sometimes I have to reboot the system to make it work. If the icon does not flicker, it works fine, when it gets into that state where it doesn't work, the icon flickers.
    Anyone else having these issues?
    Macbook Pro 15" 1.83GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   1Gb RAM

    I also had some dropped connections over my wireless
    router at home (Linksys router) after the 10.4.7
    install. I have a MBP 15" W8617xxxx. Connection was
    good for a few minutes at a time. Then I had to
    restart AirPort.
    For me, I had installed some other apps about the
    same time as 10.4.7, so I uninstalled them, repaired
    permissions, installed the Combo 10.4.7 and now
    everything seems okay.
    I don't know if it was the new apps, or the Combo
    install, or repair permissions, or ?
    Hope that helps. Good luck.
    =================
    SDDave,
    i have been reading a lot of postings regarding the issues with wireless after the 10.4.7 update.
    i also have a linksys wireless router and have identical problems with you. i am sure many of us do as well.
    you said you managed to install the 10.4.7 combo and everything seems to work properly now? if so, would you be kind enough to give me detail steps on how to install the 10.4.7 combo file
    1. do we get the combo 10.4.7 from the apple site?
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosxupdate1047comboppc.html
    2. what steps do we need to install this file?
    please please help us out to provide detail steps to do this. i know some of us here are not as comfortable doing it without some help.
    i would appreciate if anyone else would help out beside sddave.
    thank you in advance. i can't wait to install this combo update to resolve this connection issue.
