Problem accessing Activity window using Command-Option A

Until a couple of weeks ago, I was able to download an Internet video file by pressing Option-Command A and then double clicking the largest file while pressing option. Now, nothing happens when I press Command-Option A. Any ideas?

The activity window is absent from Safari 6.

Flash crashing when using Command + Option + S for Scale and Rotate?

Flash crashing when using Command + Option + S for Scale and Rotate?
It's happening to me when I use those hotkeys
Please let me know if it's happening to you too.
I don't know the cause but I need a fix.
I'm using Adobe FLASH cs6 for Mac
My computer:
Mac mini

With all due respect to your totally coindescending reply, this is a bug in Flash. Happens every 4-5 times I use that menu item. Been happening for months, but we just installed a Brand new iMac (1/13). Quadcore 3.4 16G RAM and 1TB Fusion drive. Fresh install of CS6. Not running any other 3rd Party Software. Problem STILL happens in new Flash docs with small, simple vector Graphics.
So instead of blaming the users computers, how about you guys just fix the effin' problem? Thanks.

Hi there,
After upgrading to Firefox 8 for mac osx I am unable to close a browser window using command w, or command shift w?
Is there any way I can correct this as it is very annoying?

It only happens for me on pages where I've allowed some Flash element to play (I have Flashblocker) such as a YouTube video.

Problems in starting windows using qemu-kvm from arch

Hello,
I am facing problems in launching windows XP & 7 using qemu-kvm / qemu from arch. I have arch 2010.05 installed (kernel 2.6.33.4) which has kvm.ko, intel & amd modules. System is Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0GHz. Windows XP is installed on partition 0 (real) and i am trying to start windows from that real partition using qemu-kvm.
I installed qemu-kvm using pacman -S qemu-kvm. I am running modprobe kvm and modprobe kvm-intel. Also, i have added username to kvm group.
Command -
qemu-kvm /dev/sda - I have grub menu.lst which gives me list and i am selecting windows to boot but windows does not start. I can see startup but then fails.
qemu-kvm /dev/sda1 - sda1 has windows. With this qemu-kvm just hangs at Booting from Hard-disk...
qemu-kvm -no-kvm /dev/sda - Selecting windows but this time get Windows XP activation error however i can boot same windows XP directly without any error.
For Windows 7 - I have another HDD with Windows 7 installed on partition 0 and Arch. Everytime when i try to start Windows 7 using qemu-kvm (with kvm or without kvm) it gives blue screen with STOP: 0x... If i start Windows 7 directly it works fine.
Also, i downloaded kernel 2.6.35 and built with KVM but still facing same problems. I also tried with qemu.
Can anyone help me in resolving this issue? I want to qemu-kvm Windows from real partition. Let me know if it is not possible.
Am i missing any installation/configuration steps?
I searched on google and on arch forum/wiki but was not able to resolve this issue. Let me know if you need more details.
Thank you,
Satish.

Do i need to create two hardware profiles in Windows or Linux?
the hardware profiles are only needed for windows , linux guest doesn't need it (unless you have compiled your own kernel without more then 1 HDD controller.. specifically for the guest)
satishk wrote:1. Can i run qemu-kvm from linux kernel with only command support. No desktop environment installed (X11)? If yes, what is the procedure?
qemu-KVM uses SDL, NOT X11 .
added : SDL can be installed seperately, it doesn't require X11 .
you can run qemu-kvm without SDL by using a special startup parameter, -nodisplay
you have to connect with a serial connection to get to the console of the VM.
satishk wrote:2. If i restart/shutdown from quest OS that is windows in my case, is it possible to restart/shutdown the complete system (i.e. host OS
too)?
you can do that by using a bash script to start the VM, that script can also be used to stop the host.
satishk wrote:3. Whether Windows would be able to detect USB drivers and other devices by default or i need to do anything special in qemu-kvm?
USB devices are normally detected, although you have to test how well they work.
You may have to use udev rules to prevent the host from using those devices, they can't be used by both host and guest at the same time.
Network cards will not be detected, but you can link a physical network device with qemu-kvm virtual network devices.
search for qemu documentation, it also applies to qemu-kvm.

I cannot access one user on my iMac. When I log onto that user the dekstop appears unpopulated and blank and half of the programs do not appear on the operating bar. When I attempt to click on a program such as Safari nothing happens. Nothing works and I can only exit by doing a command/option/esc and restarting the computer. The other user and the Administrator work fine. What has disabled the one user? How do I recover this user and its files?

No.. I have been through parental control and it does not affect this problem. Now if I log onto this user I cannot get out even with a comman/option/escape; I have to unplug the power to the computer to get it to restart with the administrator. I saw somewhere that there is a process in which I can delete the use and then create a new user with the same name and password and then recover everything - but I cannot find that solution. This is a real problem for me, as you might imagine.

Problems with Partition pruning using LIST option in 9i

I am declaring the following partitions on a fact table and when
I do an explain plan on the following SELECT statements it is
doing a full table scan on the fact table. However if I use
the "PARTITION" statement in the FROM clause it picks up the
correct partition and runs great. I have used the analyze
command and dbms_utility.analyze_schema command on all tables
and indexes. I had simaliar problems when partitioning with the
RANGE options too. I have looked through all of the INIT file
parameters and don't see anything obvious. Is there something I
am missing?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Bryan
Facttable create statement....
CREATE TABLE FactTable (
ProductGID INTEGER NULL,
CustomerGID INTEGER NULL,
OrganizationGID INTEGER NULL,
TimeGID INTEGER NULL,
FactValue NUMBER NOT NULL,
ModDate DATE NULL,
CombinedGID INTEGER NOT NULL)
PARTITION BY LIST (CombinedGID)
(PARTITION sales1 VALUES(9999101),
PARTITION sales2 VALUES(9999102),
PARTITION sales3 VALUES(9999103),
PARTITION model1 VALUES(9999204),
PARTITION model2 VALUES(9999205),
PARTITION model3 VALUES(9999206));
Select statement....that is causing a full table scan.....the
*tc tables are the equivelent to dimension tables in a star
schema.
SELECT tco.parentgid, tcc.parentgid, tcp.parentgid, sum
(factvalue)
FROM facttable f, custtc tcc, timetc tct, prodtc tcp, orgtc tco
WHERE
tco.childgid = f.organizationgid
AND tco.parentgid = 18262
AND tcc.childgid = f.customergid
AND tcc.parentmembertypegid = 16
AND tcp.childgid = f.productgid
AND tcp.parentmembertypegid = 7
AND tct.childgid = f.timegid
AND tct.parentgid = 1009
GROUP BY tco.parentgid, tcc.parentgid, tcp.parentgid;
Select statement that works great....
SELECT tco.parentgid, tcc.parentgid, tcp.parentgid, sum
(factvalue)

Hi Hoek,
the DB version is 10.2 (italian version, then SET is correct).
...there's something strange: now I can INSERT rows but I can't update them!
I'm using this command string:
UPDATE TW_E_CUSTOMER_UNIFIED SET END_VALIDITY_DATE = TO_DATE('09-SET-09', 'DD-MON-RR') WHERE
id_customer_unified = '123' and start_validity_date = TO_DATE('09-SET-09', 'DD-MON-RR');
And this is the error:
Error SQL: ORA-14402: updating partition key column would cause a partition change
14402. 00000 - "updating partition key column would cause a partition change"
*Cause: An UPDATE statement attempted to change the value of a partition
key column causing migration of the row to another partition
*Action: Do not attempt to update a partition key column or make sure that
the new partition key is within the range containing the old
partition key.
I think that is impossible to use a PARTITION/SUBPARTITION like that: in fact the update of "END_VALIDITY_DATE" cause a partition change.
Do u agree or it's possible an update on a field that implies a partition change?
Regards Steve

Use command option p r to start

I have a black screen unless I cycle twice holding command option P+R. My IMac 21.5 I 3 is fine after that, no screen problems, runs fine till shut off and restart then starts again white screen flickers then stays black. The iMac is running keyboard usb mouse ect.

A 2STF error code returned under such circumstances refers to fixed mass storage: onboard your iMac G5, that is the internal SATA hard disk.
A 2STR designation would indicate a problem with removable storage: again, on an iMac G5, this would indicate an issue with a UATA optical drive. This is a completely separate device bus, interconnected with a different cable, but ultimately tied to the same drive controller.
Both are indicative of hardware failures, so fixes involving software are a waste of time. In either case, Apple indicates that you should first reseat the interconnect cable between the device and the logic board. While the error is often an indication of drive failure, it can also indicate either a defective interconnect cable, or an issue with the drive controller ASIC on your logic board. Try re-seating the cable initially, and retest or continue to use the drive unless and until the error occurs again. Then, replace the cable and retest or continue to use the machine, as cables are incredibly inexpensive as contrasted with hard drives.
Be sure that at your first opportunity, that you back up your data, and do so periodically until you have isolated the issue and resolved it.

I'm having a problem accessing Bupers Online using my CAC reader. I get an error that says safari can't establish a secure connection to the website. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I am having a problem accessing Bupers Online on OS X Mountain Lion. I get an error that says Safari cant establish a secure connection with Bupers Online. Does anyone have any tips to access Bupers?

I don't use CAC certificates, but since updating to 10.9.3, I too am getting the same error, BUT only with some HTTPS sites (e.g., https://webmail.pairlite.com), not all. Meanwhile, Firefox (was 12.0, now 29.0.1) connects with no issue.
I too have verified date/time is set automatically, checked for (and fixed) disk integrity errors and permissions, and rebooted, all to no avail.
Update:
Well...heck. Tried accessing the problematic site via the Guest account, and that WORKED. So...back to the drawing board.

Photoshop CS4 Active Window in Color option ?

I can't find a way to make the active document stand out from the inactive documents in CS4.
Sometimes I have multiple windows opened, and it was handy in CS3 to have the active
document stand out from the inactive ones, to avoid confusion about which document is
being edited.
Is there any way to distinguish the title bar of the active window as before ?

I'm not joking; if you look very closely you will see that the text on the title bar is black on the active document and grey on the others.
Very helpful! Just as helpful as losing the ability to right-click the title bar for that handy context menu.
These are elementary oversights on the part of the UI design team. According to Nack this whole UI was designed with the aim of being easier to use than the old one (which most of us were happy with).
EPIC FAIL!

Problems accessing certain sites using graphite ABS

I have recently set up a new broadband account. I have a new netgear router and if i connect the router direct to my computer it's all set up fine and all works.
If I connect the router to my base station the ethernet light on the router stays red. I have done my best to set up the base station correctly and it works for nearly everything - I can access the internet, use my email client, log on to secure sites etc. BUT - I can't access hotmail or ebay - it finds the login pages but when i try to log on it spends ages trying to find the page then says it can't. I'm assuming this is related to whatever is making the router light red? I bought the router from the apple store and explained that I needed it to work with the old airport so is it the set up on the base station that is wrong? I can provide other info as necessary - thanks for any help. Soph.

Sophie, Welcome to the discussion area!
If I connect the router to my base station the ethernet light on the router stays red. ... I'm assuming this is related to whatever is making the router light red?
Read the router's user guide. I'm guessing that a red light indicates a 100 MB Ethernet connection. It probably does not mean that there is an error.

HT2714 Mac Mini won't launch after it has been reprogrammed using Command+Option+R?

Out of nowhere while using my Mac MIni it goes whacky and I get a white/grey screen!! I diagnosed the hardware...read out "No Problems". I try restarting the computer. No luck...same old story! I tried to reprogram it holding down the Command button+Option+R....the unit starts to reprogram and finishes after about 34 minutes. Still same old story, white/grey screen! I will be making an appointment to get it fixed. It still under warrantee. In fact it only 44 days old!! Any ideas on how to restore it now, instead of me having to travel an hour to drop it off to get it fixed???

Using CMD+r try erasing & reinstalling the OS.

Problem to install Windows using Boot Camp 3.0.4 in Macbook Air (2008)

Hi Folks!
Please I need help.
I have a original Macbook Air of 2008 (http://support.apple.com/kb/SP8?viewlocale=pt_BR) with the Mac OS Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I want to install the Windows 7 Professional x64 as a secondary partition using the BootCamp 3.0.4. After steps necessary for create a new partition with the BootCamp, I rebooted the machine with the "Windows 7 Professional installation DVD" in DVD device, but then the setup Windows installation does not appears, showing the initialization white screen of the Mac OS with the apple image, a symbol of emptiness and a folder with a "?" symbol within alternating infinitely and do not finish.
I tried with the Windows Ultimate Vista x86, but occurs the same.
Please, what can I do to install the Windows in my Macbook Air?
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Jonas Presse

No, I did not get a solve. Actually, my problem worsened. I tried it again, but this time the computer wouldn´t detect my alu keyboard, hence I couldn´t select a drive to tell the bloody thing where to boot from. That is weird, because at the time I opened this thread it did work. I actually had to borrow a wired keyboard so I could hit alt and get it to work.
At the moment I am not so keen on trying it again......
