So, no? Nobody but me with this problem?
I have been able to open my projects on a different computer so I figure my GarageBand is funked. I want to reinstall but am having trouble doing this now. I have an iMac, so I insert my Install Disc and choose "Install Bundled Software Only", then try to select just GarageBand. GarageBand is greyed out, I can't install it. Everything is greyed out except for "CPU Help Files".
So...any ideas?

Focus troubles with "Please wait" window

Hello,
This is a question for experts...
I have a complex focus management. So I wrote a FocusTraversalPolicy.
During focus calculation, I may need to call a server. So I display a nice "please wait" JDialog.
Pb is that focus stays at original field and does not go to the result of my calculation.
Note that everything was OK up to JDK 1.4.1 and pb appears both in 1.4.2 and 1.5
The problem seems to be in the following sequence :
- current field is fld1, user hit <tab>
- focus calculation is started, calling my class (call it MyPolicy)
- MyPolicy runs calculation and open the blocking dialog
- calculation stops, dialog is closed
- MyPolicy return the correct field (fld2) to go to
- fld2 gets the focus
- ONLY HERE the original window retrieves the focus
- and as the focus returns to fld1 :-(
Do you have any suggestions about how to solve that ?
Thanks for help.
Francois

Thanks for trying ;-)
To answer your question, NO : the behaviour is correct when JDialog is not showed.
But suppressing the JDialog is not a solution because sometimes I really HAVE TO show a JDialog (error message).
I succeeded to make it run by clearing the focus owner when I do my calculation :
java.awt.KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager().clearGlobalFocusOwner();That keeps the focus getting back to fld1.
But I am not absolutely sure why. Implementation trick ?
I understand that something changed in focusing windows in 1.4.2...

Itunes browser window won't show on mac

Since yesterday the jukebox browser window in itunes for mac won't open or show. I had version 8.01 installed. The mini browser window does show. I've tried deleting and reinstalling itunes but it still won't show. I've also tried altering preferences. this is in the administrator account, and I can still get itunes to work OK in other accounts. It seems that itunes is working otherwise, but as a result I can't access the itunes store or choose music. I'm concerned that I can't synch my ipod and iphone properly as I can't see what might be happening.

I'm an Apple Authorized Service Provider and just had a customer with the same issue (which is how I found this post). After much troubleshooting including deleting preferences and creating test user accounts, the problem was as simple as can be. The iTunes window was open the whole time, but was dragged all the way to the lower right hand corner of the display and out of sight. Select Window->Minimize and you should see the Browser window move from whereever it's hiding into the dock. Then click on the window in the dock and you'll see it move back to it's hiding spot. Just drag it to the center of the screen and you're done!

Reminders window won't show up after clicking in notifications center

After clicking a notificytion in notifications center on Mavericks the APP Reminders opens but the application window is not showing up. Allways worked like a charme but not any longer for me.
I tried to:
1) uncheck the iClound sync for Reminders while Reminders.app ist closed which deletes all local data!
2) logout my user
3) login again
4) open Reminders
5) check the iCloud sync for Reminders again
After this procedure, Reminder is working again for a day, then again the Reminders window is not showing up, after clicking a notification or open the Reminders.app manualy.
Why is this, any hints?
Cheers

In addition: after I went thru the steps above the applications runs without problems until I close the app again. When now reopening the app will show no windows.

Skype window won't show/becomes invisible after lo...

When I launch Skype, the login screen shows and it automatically signs me into Skype. However, once the login screen is gone, there is no Skype window. The application is still running, but all I can see is my desktop. Skype is basically invisible--I cannot call or even view my contacts. How can I solve this problem?
I am currently running Yosemite 10.10.2.

Windows won't show up on start up

Hi,
I finally managed to get boot camp working and save an Windows .ios file to my samsung 3.0 Hardrive however when I press alt on the start up only the macintosh HD and the recovery disk shows up. I dont think it's a problem with the ios file itself because when i plugged it into a friends pc it comes up and i can click on it to install windows.
do you have any ideas?

Hi @seriousdream ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about your HP Notebook and getting a blank or black screen on startup. Try performing a hard reset.
When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
Thanks.

Media and Effects manager and video windows won't show up when STP launches

Today I launched Soundtrack Pro (from FCP Studio 5 Academic) and neither the Media and Effects Manager window (with Browser, Search, Favorites, Bin & Effects tabs) or the Video would show up. All I get is the project window.
When I tried importing an audio file or opening a multi track file, I still don't get these two windows, and under the window menu, all of these options are GREYED OUT.
Is there a certain setting I need to bring up the other two windows this program needs? Shouldn't they just be there when the program launches? HELP!

Update:
So, I just tried re-installing the software and I still only get the multi-track window when the program launches. I can not see any way to get the video viewer or Media and Effects manager windows to show up.
Please, what am I doing wrong?

VPN Client and Windows 7 - Window won't show

Bizarre issue I've now experienced on two separate PC's with VPN Client 5.00.07.0410 on 32-bit Windows 7:
Out of the blue, when the user double-clicks the Cisco VPN Client icon, the lock shows up in the system tray, and the application shows in the taskbar. You may get a glimpse of the window when you double-click the taskbar icon, or single click it and choose the application from the list. However, you are not able to actually get the window to be visible. This of course makes it impossible for the user to click the "connect" button.
I've discovered that when the icon is in the taskbar, and you hit "Enter" on the keyboard, it will connect. However I wouldn't expect a user to be able to figure this out, and so it was quite frustrating for them when this happened.
I've noticed there is a new version of the software for 64-bit users, but not for 32.
Anybody else experience this? Find a solution?
I tried uninstalling/re-installing and it made no difference.
-Chris

Try this so you don't have to do it each time... it worked for XP Pro 32-bit (Dell E6410). Haven't yet encountered on W7 Pro:
Bring up Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt_Delete). Open the Applications tab. Highlight VPN Client, right-click and select Maximize. (Sometimes if the system dies (power-loss) when connected to VPN the registry remembers the minimized setting and will not un-minimize it except with this process (and maybe one yet to be determined).)
I'm currently working (20140617) on a similar issue for W7 Pro for the User Authentication window where the RSA passcode needs to be entered. Alt-Tab works but I'm trying to make it permanent. (One problem is the user has a difficult time following instructions.)

ITunes window won't show up?

I've tried repeatedly reinstalling, updating, etc...
It started on iTunes 11.0.2
Is still a problem on 11.0.3
I've scanned for viruses, I've checked everything
The window opens for a split second when I start iTunes and then disappears
Everything is greyed out in the top bar menus
I can open the equalizer and get pop-up messages from iTunes but no window.
I've checked the expose and everything the window isn't hiding, it just won't open. It's simply not there.

Can't accept EULA because itunes window won't show me "OK" button

My ipod mini died so I bought an ipod nano. itunes recognizes the new ipod and wants me to accept a EULA, but the text window in which it displays the EULA is too narrow (and can't be widened) and as a result I can't even see the OK or Accept button (or whatever it is) because it's off to the right of the visible space in the window (and of course there's no horizontal scroll bar). Any suggestions?

Running Vista Hope Premium and iTunes 8.2.0.23
PCAST thing says I don't have permissions to do anything with it as an admin.
Reformatted and reinstalled Vista, redownloaded iTunes and still the same crap!

Thanks for the info. I'd rather not hide it
completely. I guess I will have to keep the folder
there until Apple releases the next maintenance
release.
You don't have to hide it completely. Move it where you want it on your programs menu, start iTunes, let it "configure" and create duplicate shortcuts in the root of the programs menu, then hide those new ones. The old shortcuts you moved will remain visible and stay where you put them.
I haven't tried Loek's suggestion yet.

Showing a "Please wait..." window / Changing mouse cursor to hourglass

Can one of the following be done using javascript:
1) Show a "Please wait" window (when using synchronous SOAP requests) with the ability to "hide" it
2) Change the mouse cursor to hourglass
I went over the JS API and found nothing, any ideas?

HT1483 my iPod is not responding. It is giving a message low battery, please wait and is displaying the apple support link

my ipod is not responding. It is giving a message pleases wait low battery and showing me a link to apple support

Hey,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Well leave it for few minutes then try plugging it to the charger, if that does not work. Try restoring it from revious backup. This will change the software and hopefully earase the error. If that did not fix it i guess you need to take it to the Store for a check.
I really hope this helps you. Let me know if it does. If not feel free to give me a shout. Best of luck.

After upgrade to 10.0.1.22 - "please wait while windows configures itunes"

Hi all,
After successfully running iTunes without problems including version 10, I routinely upgrade to the latest version 10.0.1.22 and all of a sudden now I keep getting this "please wait while windows configures itunes" dialog with a status bar before the iTunes application properly launches. Once its up, its functioning fine, but its annoying to get this dialog and status bar every time I use the application. What can I do? I tried a repair install and it didn't do anything.

There's no trace of any other itl file on my PC
Are there any files /Music/iTunes/Previous iTunes libraries/ ?
guess this means I won't see my apps and music again
Just because they do not show in iTunes does not mean they ar enot on yoru computer.
Besides, you do make regular backups of your computer correct?
Look in /Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications/ for your apps and /Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/ for everything else.
If they are there then iTunes menu File > Add folder to library and select /Music/iTunes/ .

Launching VB6 Editor after installing Visual Studio 2013 results in "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio..."

I have had various versions of Visual Studio installed beside Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise for some time with no problems, most recently Visual Studio 2012 Premium.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Premium, and now every time I open VB6 I get a dialog that says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013" that shows a progress bar. After it finishes (30 seconds or
so), it launches again and again and finally VB6 will open. This happens with each instance of VB6, regardless if I've already done it once and never run VS2013 in between.
If I cancel the dialog, I get this error message in a dialog: "Error 1712. One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." Several more "Please wait"...
dialogs will appear and if I continue to cancel, eventually I'll get the VB6 editor. It appear to work fine despite the error messages.
It seems to me that the VS2013 installer flagged some dll's or other files to be rolled back whenever starting VB6. It doesn't appear to be necessary, and I'd like to avoid playing the "Please wait" wack-a-cancel-button game before launching each
instance of VB6 (or waiting several minutes for no reason). So how do I fix this?
Note: I've seen something similar happen in Outlook on a different PC when upgrading from 2010 to 2013. The same sort of "Please wait"... dialog would appear each time I opened Outlook. Judging by the "similar" questions that popped up when
entering this forum post, I'd say this is a general problem with upgrading older versions or installing newer versions of major Microsoft software side-by-side.

I found the answer!
I was having the exact same issue, and I was search for a solution and I happened across the following thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f4b0fd38-f4f9-41ea-bd8d-834203a175d2/building-visual-studio-2010-project-triggers-please-wait-while-windows-configures-visual-studio?forum=vssetup&prof=required
Scroll a small bit down, and there is a post by Barry Wang explaining that you need to use event viewer to find out what is missing. Anyway, I opened event viewer, then open VS 6, then hit refresh in the event viewer (under Windows Logs -> Application)
and saw a warning message from MsiInstaller. It gave me the following message:
Detection of product '{9C593464-7F2F-37B3-89F8-7E894E3B09EA}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Professional_x86_enu', component '{E3FF99AA-78B9-4A06-8A74-869E9F65E1FE}' failed. The resource 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_GAC\' does
not exist.
I opened an elevated command prompt, I navigated to the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework folder and verified that 'URTInstallPath_GAC' didn't exist, and then I did "md URTInstallPath_GAC".
Closed and reopened VS 6, and it instantly opened - no "Please wait" message.
Now this may or may not be the same problem you are having (problem is - I have had it happen on two separate computers now with VS 6 and VS 2013 installed), but it should point you in the right direction. In fact, you should be able to use the Event Viewer
for anytime the "Please wait" message shows up for any application, and then once there find out what is really missing.
