Possible fix for "ContentAgent not found"

Ever since I upgraded to Leopard, my distributed processing setup has rarely worked. I tried most, if not all the suggestions found here in the forums (forii?) to no avail.
With one last journey through the zillions of log files, I stumbled on this entry which sparked an idea:
Apr 10 09:14:11 Gilligan Unknown[16]: Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(Content\032Agent-09DE8B38-1E41-4CC3-AC35-76138D62BE94.qmp3.tcp.<NAME>.members.mac.com.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
Since I'm a DotMac member, I looked to see if "Back To My Mac" was active, and it was.
Immediately after I turned off BackToMyMac, my cluster started to work, and has continued to work for most of today.
I really hope that was it.
I also hope that this might help someone else too.

Well, after running several jobs through and torturing the cluster by removing and adding nodes (mostly out of necessity rather than for testing purposes) then rebooting the whole lot, I can report that the cluster is still visible in Compressor, jobs are being submitted without delays and are being processed as expected - or at least the behavior is back to what I had pre-Leopard.
With all that said, my Compressor usage comes in waves and the big test is to see if it still works a week after this group of jobs is done.

  • Possible fix for AppleTV not appearing in devices

    Just read an article I found searching Google http://www.trick77.com/2008/03/16/apple-tv-not-being-recognized-in-itunes/
    It states that quitting mDNSresponder in Activity Monitor will force a refresh of the Bonjour scan. Finally, after 6 weeks, my AppleTV now appears in iTunes devices!
    Go to Utilities> Activity Monitor> select 'All processes' (drop down-top right) >click on mDNSresponder. Wait about 10 seconds. Then exit Activity Monitor. Close iTunes.
    Might be worth unplugging your AppleTV from the power source first (I did this recently). I then reentered my network password on my AppleTV (Settings > General > Network > Configure) and then went into Configure TCP/IP > and selected Using DHCP. I also turned Airtunes to off, Settings > Airtunes > Off. I have read that Airtunes can cause some issues.
    I then opened iTunes and waited 10 seconds and it appeared (worked on second time of opening iTunes for me).
    Then on your AppleTV go to Settings > Computer, and reconnect your library to iTunes. You should then be prompted to enter the 5 digit PIN in iTunes (on your Mac).
    I hope this works for some users!

    Oh, and obviously you need to plug your AppleTV back in after unplugging it, forcing it to reboot!

  • Possible fix for Gmail not syncing after recent update

    Hey all,
    I've seen at least one person on the forums who's had issues with their Gmail not syncing after the latest update. I thought I would pass along my solution to the problem in case it worked for others. After I updated to the latest version of the iPhone software a couple of days ago, my mail accounts from Gmail were behaving strangely. For one thing, all of my saved e-mails on the iPhone were deleted. For another, it no longer received any e-mail from those accounts. Finally, I decided to test it out by creating a new e-mail account on my iPhone to sync with a disused Gmail address that I had not yet set up for IMAP on my phone. To my surprise, it worked perfectly! Then, after I checked the details of the new e-mail account with those of my existing accounts, I discovered that the incoming server port number was incorrect on the other accounts. It was 995 when it ought to have been 993. When I corrected the port numbers, all of the accounts synced perfectly. I hope that might work for someone else. It was at least worth a post on the forums, I figured. Have a wonderful St. Patrick's day, everyone!

    Fantastic! Worked a treat - thanks!

  • OS X Lion: Fix for wireless not reconnecting when exiting sleep mode

    http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/18931/os-x-lion-fix-for-wireless-not-reconnecting -when-exiting-sleep-mode/

    I have the same symptoms with a 2011 iMac and my Senheiser Bluetooth headphones.
    10.7.3 did not correct this bug.
    I'm also using MS Messenger and notification sounds are also buffered until the headphones are switched on.
    I found other threads dealing with this bug :

    "Success - in the Audio Midi Setup (Applications/Utilities) I changed the output to 2ch - 32bit Float and all the audio works well."
    My headphones already had this setting, but internal speakers had 2ch - 24bit... is it a possible explanation ? Time will tell ...

  • ContentAgent not found error OR qmasterd not running error in Compressor

    Hi guys,
    I have problems with Compressor 3.0.1 (related to qmaster i guess). i red many articles around about "qmasterd not running" or, "ContentAgent not found" error message on Compressor.
    I tried to run it from apple qmaster in the preferences system but the same problem. i tried to launch qmasterd in command line ... no success. I erased anything with the name qmaster or compressor (preferences, Applications support, Receips, repaired authorisations, etc...) and made a brand new install from the original DVD).
    Before doing that, compressor wasn't even lauching successfully. After this re-install, it is running but i get these errors from one or the other side. I can say that i erased all related files with attention but still do not understand what to do!
    on my anotyher mac (intel based 2x3GHz dual core) everything is running fine.
    Do someones know what can cause this ? what should i do ? i prefer a solution without beeing obliged to reinstall the whole config!!! oh no!
    Thank you for your help, even a small one
    Best Regards
    Sam

    I told myself: let's do it once again and this time ERASE ALL
    In my last try, i had forgot to erase compressor.framework folder with all its contents.
    Now, it is working just perfect, even the cluster between both computers
    Best.R.

  • Possible fix for errors 11503 and 50

    Here's a possible fix for Error 11503 and for error 50.
    It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.
    I believe this error is caused by the incomplete downloading of either an update to an app. In my case it was caused by closing the lid on my laptop when I was downloading app updates on a very slow internet connection in a hotel.
    Anyway, here is what I did that fixed it completely.
    Close iTunes.
    Go to this folder : /iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads
    You'll find tmp files there. Drag them out of this folder to a temporary folder on your desktop. The Downloads folder should now be empty.
    Restart iTunes.
    All should be fine.
    If it is, delete the desktop folder with all the temp files.
    If it's not, then I can't help further, but that's what worked for me.

    Several possible causes from the info you gave
    Battery level low - recharge it for at least 4 hours till the full charge sign displays (2 prong icon instead of lightning icon).
    Time to Reset the iPod - Press the Menu and center Button for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then let go of the buttons.
    your hardisk is starting to give problems, hence the skipping and some song refuse to play. - Do a disk diagnostic - follow this post by tt2.
         https://discussions.apple.com/message/17028567#17028567
    If you have updated any sofware application in Windows, then follow this Apple support procedure
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539
    Most likely you have to do all, as the iPod hardisk filesystem would have been corrupted, or else the iPod Reset would bring it to normal operation.
    Good Luck!

  • Possible fix for OS X 10.5.7,  losing connection after sleep, restart

    Possible fix for OS X 10.5.7, Airport, losing connection after sleep, restart, or cold reboot.
    Issue: (For OS X 10.5.7 on iMac5,1, Intel Core 2 Duo)
    =============================================
    - After sleep, restart, cold reboot, even though cannot connect to Internet, but the AirPort bars are still full, as if connected.
    - Losing Internet connection after sleep, restart, cold reboot.
    Possible Fix:
    1.Open Network Preference, click on the Location drop down list > Edit Location... > click on the wheel button > Duplicate Location.
    a)Select this newly setup location; Use Diagnostic button to connect to the internet. Select Network or enter WEP password if necessary.
    b)Test to make sure you can connect to a web page.
    c)Go to sleep & wake up.
    d)This time, the Airport bar will start to show correctly. Before, it will always be full even when not connected. Now there will be no bars or grey out when not connected.
    2.On the left hand side of the Network Preference Window, there is a list of services, such as Airport, build-in ethernet, built-in FireWire, bluetooth, etc.
    a)Click on the wheel button on the bottom of the service list; select Set Service Order...; move Airport to the top of the list.
    b)Delete any services which you are sure that you are not going to use, such as Bluetooth, etc.
    3.Pick one of the locations mentioned in #1, and make it sure it is connected. If not, use Diagnostic button. If you have to select Network or enter WEP password to connect, make it so.
    a)Check to make sure you can connect to a web page.
    4.Go to sleep & wake up. The Airport bar should be filled up quickly. Try to connect to a web page.
    5.Restart computer. Test a web page.
    6.Shut down & Start computer. Test a web page.
    7.When everything is working fine, you can delete the extra location that you created in step #1.
    8.Click the lock on the left lower corner of the Network Preference window to safeguard the setting.

    If my assessment is correct, the LIDE 200 driver is version 14.8.1 and dated 26-Sep-2008. It is possible that the driver will not work with the latest version of OSX. I would advise that you contact Canon and ask them the question.
    (Removed link because of the way Flash drives the Canon site).
    It is not uncommon (though irritating) that devices no longer work when an OS is upgraded. One has to ask the question if (or why) the driver was not written in such a way as to be OS version independent.
    Chris
    I spoke to Canon over here in Australia. Not helpful at all. In fact they were about as useful as an ashtray on on motorcycle. Having said that the tech seemed to think that there would be an update soon. But that is assuming that Canon are aware that there is a problem with that Scanner under OS X 10.5.7.

    Hello all,
    I got a problem with my Sun Fire, with solaris 10, when my system boot, we got a powerfailed :-( and when my sun restart again after a long checkdisk with many errors... i got this error everytime i want to do a su.

    I don't know how to fix that.
    If anyone have a working solution, i would be wonderfull :)
    Thanks in advance

    Use your service contract and open a support case with Sun.
    http://www.sun.com/secure/contact/
    You will then be able to draw upon all their support resources.
    They will be able to help you investigate the health of all the hardware,
    as well as work with you to decide whether you need to install all your
    software all over again, due to too much corruption in the filesystems.
    Electrical interruptions can sometime do some nasty things to data on disk drives.

    Hi,
    I had a similar problem with my Dell Latitude E4310, and apparently also the E6410, E6510.
    The solution for me was to add the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf:
    options snd-hda-intel model=dell-s14
    I tried that, unfortunately it does not work with this chipset. I do get a different set of channels though but it still cannot record anything. Maybe this chipset is too "new" for alsa. The latest release dates back from the end of January. Support for it is explicitly stated in the changelog to 1.0.24 but perhaps the recording part of it slipped through the cracks. ALSA bug tracking system seems quite closed.

  • Possible Fix for Printing Problems in Leopard

    I got this information from Mac OS X Leopard Edition book by David Pogue. Here's his possible fix for printing problems in Leopard...Open web browser and enter this address http://127.0.0.1:631. You'll find youself at a secret "front end" for CUPS (Common UNIX Printer System), the underlying printing technology for Mac OS X 10.5. This trick lets your Mac communicate with a huge array of older printers that dopn't yet have Mac OS X drivers. Using this administration screen, you can print a test page, stop your printer in its tracks, manage your networked printers and print jobs, and more–a very slick trick. Haven't tried it yet...anyone who does let me know how it worked!

    If you literally "checked" them, meaning the checkboxes, that only affects their visibility. To remove them, select one and then click on the "minus" part of the "plus minus" at lower left.

    I have looked for but not found. So that means that more than likely I have just not looked in the right place.
    What I am trying to find is the total number of contacts the the 8530 will hold. IE; 500? 1000?
    I know that each contact will take so many numbers and so many email address's but how many individual contacts will it allow you to add?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    I have yet to see a credible source publish actual limits for records on any of the calendar, memo, tasks, or contacts apps. If you find one please post. I usually tell users to keep it manageable. To me 6,000 contacts? Seriously?
    Heck I wasn't stationed with 6,000 people in the U.S Army! .
    Remember the device memory is flash memory, designed for keeping all device functions running at peek levels. Storing large amounts of records just takes that much dynamic memory and makes it static.
    Let me know your thoughts!
