Preferences crash -- what does this mean?

I have a log for a preferences crash. It starts with
Preferences [1295]
Path: /Applications/Preferences app/Preferences
Identifier: Preferences
Anyone know what this refers to? Preferences for e-mail or what? Anyone have a fix to prevent this crash?
I updated to IOS5, on the iphone 4s.

I'm getting this issue too. If I go to Preferences->Usage the Preferences app crashes after a few seconds.
I have a 64GB iPhone 4S on the Three network in the UK. The issue occurred with iOS 5 and still occurrs with 5.0.1. The log says:
Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
Exception Dodes: 0x00000000, 0x00000000

Are your crashes for com.apple.MusicLibrary.background too?

Computer now works fine. This is not the first time something like this has happened.
Please advise what I should go.
Many thanks.

That's called a Kernel Panic, not much to go on, but have you blown the dust out of it lately?

I'm trying to download my Master CS6 onto a new hard drive because my old one crashed and I keep getting a message saying " Cannot write the file" or "I don't have permission to access the requested resource." ? What does this mean?

Yes- it is a Mac. I went through adobes system requirements and re- downloaded supportive software. The notice seems to happen near the end of the down load with the messages above. I'll look into your suggestion. Thank you- appreciated.

What does this mean? It is happening when I try to publish an OAM for Dreamweaver.
Also: How can I specify the browser in Edge Animate? It is just going wherever. Are there no Preferences for Edge Animate?
BTW. Just call it Edge. Seriously. Do you call it Illustrator Draw? Photoshop Retouching?

No, my file name is mainContent.oam
My project name is mainContent.an
This error happens when I try to import into Dreamweaver. Sorry, I wasn't clear on that earlier.
I thought maybe it was because I had saved my image as a png. So re-saved as a svg, still get the error.
DO I have a setting is Dreamweaver CC that is wrong? Should I try this in Dreamweaver CS6? I might try that next.
Why is this program so difficult? I know Flash. I know After Effects. I can work the timeline part just great. It's always in the export that I have problems.

Are you an Adobe person or just a nice helper?

My macbook pro displays a folder with a question mark on it when it turns on. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

My macbook pro displays a folder with a question mark and won't open. What does this mean and how can I fix it?

it means your HD and the software can't find each other, the following article tells how to troubleshoot this issue:
https://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440
hopefully you have backup of your data since sometimes this means the HD is crashing.
if the article doesn't resolve the issue i would take the mac to apple store or service provider and have it looked at, the following link tells how to find one close to you:

good luck!!

HT4296 What does this mean "remains disabled by default in this update"? Does that mean I don't have Java any more because of this update?

What does this mean (referring to the Java update on the Mac OS X 10.5.8) "remains disabled by default in this update"? Does that mean I don't have Java any more because of this update?

You should still have JAVA. Open Safari, then in the top Menu Bar, click on Safari and pull down to Preferences.
Safari> Preferences> Security> and click check the buttons next to Enable JAVA and Enable Javascript.
You might have to restart Safari, I'm not sure about that.
Good luck.

Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ? Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.
UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most but not for VIDEO.
free space on internal boot hard disk? How much ?
Video codec
streamingDV, AIC etc. (not .avi, .mp4, .m4v, .wmv etc as they are containers not codecs)
Pictures
in what format ? .jpg, .bmp, .tif, else ?
Audio
from where/what format ? iTunes, .avi, .mp3, .aiff, else ?
iMovie/iDVD preference file
The "com.apple.iMovie.plist" file or "com.apple.iDVD.plist"
Many users has not observed that there are TWO libraries.
_ Library - at root level
_ Library - in user/account folder - THIS IS THE ONE to look into
from Luke Burns
I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

You need more free space on your hard drive.
Where do Your material come from
Camera
External hard disk
USB-memory
And all are connected so that iMovie can find it ?

After phone support from apple I ended up creating a new project and adding all 117 clips back in individually till I found out what clips flagged and would not allow me to export. I had 3 I deleted and replaced and everything works now 1hr after tedious work....
from Karsten S
Shorter clips than 1,5 sec might be one of the culptrits
Bengt cont.
Set-Up might differ
Mac OS - most probably X.7 or more
iMovie version - more than iM'11 v. 9.0.4
Action taken
Finalizing project - I never do as I never understood the gain to do so
Share as HD to iDVD - never give any gain but if it works the resulting DVD is less quality than if SD-quality was shared
fps - set - I only use PAL (25fps) 
Yours Bengt W

Export iPhoto slideshow to a DVD, but get message "OS Status Error -9459". What does this mean?

I have created a slideshow (with music) in iPhoto, and each time that I try to export the slideshow, iPhoto stops the process and gives me the error message "OS Status Error -9459". What does this mean?

Go into the System/Energy Saver preference pane and turn OFF all options. Also turn off the screensaver. Then try again.

What does this mean? This computer's local hostname "Linda-Daviss-iMac-4.local" is already in use on this network. The name has been changed to "Linda-Daviss-iMac-5.local".

What does this mean: This computer’s local hostname “Linda-Daviss-iMac-4.local” is already in use on this network. The name has been changed to “Linda-Daviss-iMac-5.local”.
When I came back to my computer this message was on the screen. Should I be concerned ? or doing something?

Sometimes this message means that you have two simultaneous connections to the same local network: probably Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Disconnect the Ethernet cable or turn off Wi-Fi.
Sometimes it happens because a device that gets its network address from the router wakes from sleep, and the address it was using before has been assigned to another device.

My MacBook has a grey screen with a folder and a question mark in the middle what does this mean?

My MacBook has a grey screen with a folder and a question mark in the middle what does this mean?

It means a valid system cannot be found. You need to reinstall OS X.
If you have Snow Leopard:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
If you have Lion or later:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Wi-Fi is turned on but is not connected to a network. What does this mean? How do I fix it?

Hi, Kozou. Welcome to the forums!
Connect your computer to the Express's Ethernet port and open AirPort Utility. Does this allow AirPort Utility to find your Express?
If so, go through the setup process. After the Express restarts, disconnect it from the computer and connect it to your DSL, cable modem, or whatever provides your internet connection. Wait a minute or so. The light on the Express should turn green.
Now tell your MBP to join the wireless network created by the Express. You can do this using the AirPort menu or the Network pane of System Preferences.
Does this work?

Only Update Checked Songs ??? What does this mean?

Hi, I was looking at my iPod preferences, and see the option "Only Update Checked Songs" What does this mean exactly? Has anyone figured it out yet?
I searched the iTunes help file and it just listed stuff about Podcasts.
Thanks in advance for your answers.

OK, my daughter and me both have iPods and only 1 computer to update them, I don't like alot of her music, I was hoping for a way to keep the automatically update setting on my iPod - so when new music was added to my library it would automatically copy those songs to my iPod, but if I didn't like them I could uncheck the songs and after the next update those songs wouldn't be on my iPod anymore.
When we became a two iPod family, I did use the manual update on my iPod for awhile but it became a pain to remember which songs I just added to the library and copy those songs to my iPod.
