Podcast smart list doesn't work anymore

For some reason with the recent updates of itunes, the podcasts aren't flowing into the podcast my podcast smart list. In order to get them to go in, I have to keep re-labeling the genre field in the itunes podcast folder.
They also stopped auto deleting too....ugh what a pain
Any clue?

I've since learned that I can use Ctrl+' and Ctrl+Shift+' (Mac) for the cheapo feet and inches marks. Thanks for the info about prime marks though, I didn't know about them – that they are the "real" feet and inches marks. I also didn't know that Smart Quotes would convert quotes during copy and paste.
I must say that I couldn't find prime marks in the Glyphs palette (which would really benefit from a search tool), at least not for the Myriad Pro font. Still, I will keep it in mind for any "important" applications of the feet and inches marks in future. Most of the time I just want them quickly for unimportant uses, at which time I'll just use Ctrl+'. I guess I'm obsessive enough to avoid quotation marks when I mean feet and inches, but not obsessive enough to dig through the Glyphs palette.
By the way, I scanned through Snow Leopard's keyboard shortcuts preferences and couldn't find a conflicting Cmd+Opt+Shift+' command. It doesn't matter to me anymore though.

"Toggle Smart Quotes" doesn't work anymore

I'm not sure if this stopped working after I upgraded to Snow Leopard (from Leopard) or if it's been a CS4 issue all along, but hitting Cmd+Opt+Shift+' doesn't toggle smart quotes functionality anymore. This is handy for the odd occasion when I actually want feet and inches marks. I trashed preferences and that didn't fix it.
For what it's worth, this keyboard command is still listed in the Keyboard Shortcuts preferences. It just isn't working.

Smart list doesn't work

Hi
in iTunes there is a smart playlist called Top 25 Most Played.
This one has always worked with me, until i got the 3.0 update for my iPod Touch.
Now in iTunes you see the songs you're supossed to see and everything is perfect.
But once i sync it with my Touch it shows, on my Touch, a complete other list of songs that are nor the same as one my pc in the same list. I believe these songs are some of the least played songs but this isn't at all right.
I tried to make another list with oter specifications and rules but he does the exact same thing and shows the same songs as in the other lists. these songs are the least played.
My other Smart Playlists, Recently Added and Recently played, do work the exact same as before; fine.
I hope to get an answer soon, I really liked my Top 25...
My excuses if I made any language faults.

I still have done a feedback several times and I searched several times for apps.
I can get back the old player if I downgrade to iOS 6.4. The image I have.
But that is not what I want, because I will loose the ability to synchronize with iTunes.
iOS6 is not longer supported by Apple.
Is there an app which can write back the rating to the iTunes library?
I have seen a lot of really good apps but none of them could write back the rating.
Or is there a way to hack the interface of the iTunes player on iPhone to face only buttons or slider needed?

Action list doesn't work anymore

Hello,
I'm using list of actions with VC 7.01 SP4. Everything was working until this morning. No upgrade action has been done those last days.
Problem: when I compile, I've got a warning message "event is declared but cannot be raised" (which is wrong) and my application execute only the first action (I tried to change the order to be sure).
Is that a sap known problem ? did somebody ever encounter this problem ? How can I fix it ?
Thank you for advance
Damien

In the way to be clear, I made a basic example:
I have a form with 4 input fields and a pushbutton, and a data store.
Two actions are associated to my button : "act1" and "act2".
"act1" store the value of my first string in "str1" and "act2" store the second in "str2".
The label of my 2 other fields is configured like that : "STORE@str1" and "STORE@str2".
When I write something in my two first input fields and I click on button, only the first label is changing.
Do you need more precisions ?
I don't find another to do what I want (I already found it), I try to understand why something worked yesterday and not today without any SP or EHP upgrade. What could be other causes ? something in relation with java version or xml ?

Merge 2 code and script doesn't work anymore

I have 2 AS2 codes (I think). One is a carousel gallery script that lets pictures flying in a circle. And the second code is the one that let words fly, downloaden from http://www.levitated.net/daily/levTextSpace.html.
The scripts work seperatly, but once i merge the codes together the levTextSpace doesn't work anymore. And I can't find where the problem is. Fla file is included.

Time Machine Just Doesn't Work Anymore

I was a happy Time Machine (with Time Capsule) user for months. But it just doesn't work anymore. It takes longer than an hour to do every hourly backup so it is backing up 24 hours a day. It finds hundreds of thousands of files changed every hour and tries to back them up. Finders says only tens of files have been modified all of today. I have tried rebuilding my spotlight indexes, repairing my Time Capsule with Disk Utility and starting over with a brand new backup. But it just backs up hundreds of thousands of files every hour. So I am turning off Time capsule since it is clearly broken. If anyone has any suggestions at all I would welcome them.

Marcia,
Consider the following, it might give you some ideas:
Time Machine performs backups at the file level. If a single bit in a large file is changed, the WHOLE file is backed up again. This is a problem for programs that save data to monolithic virtual disk files that are modified frequently. These include Parallels, VMware Fusion, Aperture vaults, or the databases that Entourage and Thunderbird create. These should be excluded from backup using the Time Machine Preference Exclusion list. You will, however, need to backup these files manually to another external disk.
One poster observed regarding Photoshop: “If you find yourself working with large files, you may discover that TM is suddenly backing up your scratch disk's temp files. This is useless, find out how to exclude these (I'm not actually sure here). Alternatively, turn off TM whilst you work in Photoshop.” (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1209412)
If you do a lot of movie editing, unless these files are excluded, expect Time Machine to treat revised versions of a single movie as entirely new files.
If you frequently download software or video files that you only expect to keep for a short time, consider excluding the folder these are stored in from Time Machine backups.
If you have recently created a new disk image or burned a DVD, Time Machine will target these files for backup unless they are deleted or excluded from backup.
Installing new software, upgrading existing software, or updating Mac OS X system software can created major changes in the structure of your directories. Time Machine will backup every file that has changed since the installation.
Files or folders that are simply moved or renamed are counted as NEW files or folders. If you rename any file or folder, Time Machine will back up the ENTIRE file or folder again no matter how big or small it is.
George Schreyer describes this behavior: “If you should want to do some massive rearrangement of your disk, Time Machine will interpret the rearranged files as new files and back them up again in their new locations. Just renaming a folder will cause this to happen. This is OK if you've got lots of room on your backup disk. Eventually, Time Machine will thin those backups and the space consumed will be recovered. However, if you really want recover the space in the backup volume immediately, you can. To do this, bring a Finder window to the front and then click the Time Machine icon on the dock. This will activate the Time Machine user interface. Navigate back in time to where the old stuff exists and select it. Then pull down the "action" menu (the gear thing) and select "delete all backups" and the older stuff vanishes.” (http://www.girr.org/mac_stuff/backups.html)
*TechTool Pro Directory Protection*
This disk utility feature creates backup copies of your system directories. Obviously these directories are changing all the time. So, depending on how it is configured, these backup files will be changing as well which is interpreted by Time Machine as new data to backup. Excluding the folder these backups are stored in will eliminate this effect.
*Backups WAY Too Large*
If an initial full backup or subsequent incremental backup is tens or hundreds of Gigs larger than expected, check to see that all unwanted external hard disks are still excluded from Time Machine backups.
This includes the Time Machine backup drive ITSELF. Normally, Time Machine is set to exclude itself by default. But on rare occasions it can forget. When your backup begins, Time Machine mounts the backup on your desktop. (For Time Capsule users it appears as a white drive icon labeled something like “Backup of (your computer)”.) If, while it is mounted, it does not show up in the Time Machine Prefs “Do not back up” list, then Time Machine will attempt to back ITSELF up. If it is not listed while the drive is mounted, then you need to add it to the list.
*FileVault / Boot Camp / iDisk Syncing*
Note: Leopard has changed the way it deals with FileVault disk images, so it is not necessary to exclude your Home folder if you have FileVault activated. Additionally, Time Machine ignores Boot Camp partitions as the manner in which they are formatted is incompatible. Finally, if you have your iDisk Synced to your desktop, it is not necessary to exclude the disk image file it creates as that has been changed to a sparsebundle as well in Leopard.
Let us know if any of this helps.
Cheers!

IMac freezes & Time Machine doesn't work anymore

Hello,
For several days now my trusty iMac (two years old) keeps freezing without a recognizable pattern. Programs like iTunes, iPhoto or maybe even the Finder just stop working and display only the rotating ball - the only thing left to do for me after that is to manually terminate that process or (in the case of the Finder) to restart the whole iMac. I'm really clueless as to where this behaviour suddenly comes from, up until about a week ago the iMac worked perfectly. And now something like this happens every single time I start it.
Another thing that doesn't work anymore is Time Machine. My last automatic backup is from September 17th. After that it just stopped working. Every time an automatic or manual backup is initiated it just says "Searching for backup volume" but doesn't find it, even after several hours of looking. The Time Capsule itself works perfectly, no errors whatsoever.
My iMac is up-to-date, I also already ran the disgnostics of the hard drive program - everything seems to be fine. Can anyone help me?
Thank you in advance,
Paul

Contacts smart list don't work

Creating smart list doesn't to appear to work properly if at all.
Using Notes containing "XZY" doesn't pull all the contacts/companies that contain XZY...creating only a partial list.
Please advise.

Apparently smart list names work, but they do not show the expanded list of names to the sender. However, the recipeints do see the expanded list of names. If you Control+Click on the Smart list name in Contacts and select send email from the context menu, the sender does see the expanded list of names. This looks like an "oops" to me. I suggest you report it to Apple here.

I have a different type of TouchSmart, but this may work for you:
Press the Windows logo key + X (if using a Windows 8 computer -- if Windows 7, click the Start button, type Device Manager, and click Device Manager in the search results).
Select Device Manager from the list.
Click the little arrow next to Human Interface Devices to expand the list.
Click the touch screen driver (in my case, NextWindow Voltron Touch Screen).
Right-click, and select Enable from the list.
Click Yes if a dialog box asks if you are sure you want to enable the touch screen driver.
On some models, it isn't obvious which device in the list controls the touch screen. I have read in other posts that some people have fixed the problem by disabling and re-enabling each device.
If that does not work, you might try going to hp.com (http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html) and clicking Drivers & Downloads.
In the search field, enter your product name or number, and then click Go. Select your operating system from the drop-down list under Select your operating system, and then click Next. If there are any available graphics drivers under Select a download below, click the plus sign next to Driver - Graphics, and then click the driver name. In the Download options and information window, click Download . Follow the onscreen directions to download the driver. Restart the computer.

After installing Lion my printer Epson LBP5050n doesn't work anymore. Cannot find a printer driver

after installing Lion my printer Epson LBP5050n doesn't work anymore. Cannot find a printer driver.

Well then you could download the Epson Printer Driver package for Lion. This will add all the Epson printers in that list.

Last week, I had no problems streaming my MacBook Pro to my sony Bravia with a logix hdmi cable. I came back from holidays and now it doesn't work anymore. What settings should my computer be on and what settings should my tv be on?

Efi Express doesn't work anymore so I can't print

I Use Efi Express as RIP and colormanagement software to print to my Epson Pro 4900 printer. Now I need prints and this doesn't work anymore.
I installed Maverick so that is most likely to be the problem, because just before I did this the pritner and software worked fine. I installed Efi Express again but I keep getting a message aboutr a system extension that isn't properly installed.
I looked in the system folder for this .kext file, but it doesn't exist at all.
Please help.

We use the Fiery Express driver with our Canon copiers that use the optional EFI print controller and have no issue with this driver on 10.9. In fact, at this point in time, it is the only EFI driver we have for 10.9.
The Express driver plugins should be located in /Library/Printers/efi and the PPD will be in /Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj and is called Fiery Express. So trash these files and check the EFI web site for the latest version of the driver.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues. I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
Good luck!

Su doesn't work anymore but sudo works

Hi all,
I normally use my standard user account but when I'm installing with macports I routinely "su" into root to do things.
Today I went on my machine and noticed that "su" wouldn't work. Before anyone decides to tell me that I don't need to use "su", I realize that but I use it for my own purposes.
From the system log I am seeing this each time "su" fails:
su[1376]: pam_authenticate: Permission denied
What is interesting is that doing a "sudo su" works, and I'm able to do all of my admin duties that way.
I have a feeling something messed up my bash profile but not totally sure. Has anyone else run into this issue?

Hi all,
Thanks for the help on this issue.
I'll clarify: I'm using this install as a server and this is why I have 2 admin accounts on it. The original account is my own; the one I created when I first installed OS X. I then enabled System Admin (root) so that is the other admin account. After installing MacPorts I have been running the system as a multi-user webserver. I occasionally log in as root to do maintenance and upgrades. I have found that it's easier to use the SysAdmin account in certain situations because of permissions issues and ease of installing upgrades.
I'll often log in under my username and then su to root. Recently (yesterday) I noticed that "su" didn't work anymore when I used my normal username.
There are sometimes that I will log onto the machine as System Admin and usually via the terminal (console) I can log in as any of the other accounts by doing
su <username>
this also doesn't work anymore. I get the error:
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Permission denied
I have two servers set up this way. One works the way it should, the other one has this problem. The only difference I can see is in roots bash profile but I'm not sure why they are different on each machine.
Also when logged in as System Admin, I should be able to turn off "allow user to administer computer" on my regular account but it's grayed out. On the other similarly configured machine, under the same conditions, I can. I'm not sure why I can do it on one and not the other.
I've tried turning off enable root via Directory Utility but that didn't fix the issue.

My safari doesn't work anymore!, My safari doesn't work anymore!

My safari doesn't work anymore!

Hello ! I have the same problem ... more or less. The Safari we have on one of the MacBooks' here doesn't work any longer. That happened after I both downloaded and installed the updated for Safari two weeks ago or so- and (simultaneously) ran an application called "MacKeeper". Maybe that was the "bug"? ... because after that Safari collapsed, but nothing else. I tried to reset all on Safari, copied even manually all preferences of Safari from another MacBook that worked onto mine, but no chance. Safari is blank when I try to open it, nothing happens, except from making the rest of my MacBook also work slow. Now I have to use Firefox, that works, but I don't want to use this browser, I would like to have Safari back.
My question is the same: Is there at all a chance to fix this problem? Any advice from you guys out there is highly appreciated!
