Problem playing game since last update

Right after the last software update from Apple, I stopped being able to open Myst V. The game won't start at all. It took a long time to get the game installed on an intel Mac in the first place, because the Ubisoft patch has a bug and the directions for fixing it by hand were not easy to find. So I'm frustrated that now it stopped working again! I tried reinstalling the game (with the repaired patch), with no luck. Is anyone else having this problem? Any tips?

For starters, Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them.
Then Repair Permissions.

  • Problems while roaming since last update of an iPhone 5

    Since last update the phone loses signal intermittently while a regular phone in the same network/account has a steady, strong signal. I've reset network settings and since it didn't work I did a hard reset, erasing and restoring the phone. The problem persists

    Hey Manuel Flores-Arce,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like the iPhone is having a service issue while roaming. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

  • Problems using Itunes since last update (10.3.1.55)

    Hi
    I am experiencing problems trying to use itunes since it last updated and installed the latest version (10.3.1.55), a version which seems to be be really faulty if you look at the level of discussions it is generating.
    My problems concern my library:
    I used to be able to just click on a song to start it: now it won't. I have to either right click and select play 'x' or attempt the 'controls' button several times before its menu is willing to drop for me to select play
    I used to be able to also move from one song to another also by clicking on it. Now I can't
    I was also listening to a language programme and could not go back or even stop the listening function
    the cover 'flow' (view mode) certainly does not flow any more. It is very judery and seems to have a life of its own!
    Basically most functions perform poorly or not at all...
    I have not attempted to sync with my Ipod as I am not sure whether there is a danger its content might "disappear"!
    Either it is a case of someone out there has a brillant idea how to resolve this or Apple gets its act together and releases a better version pronto!
    Many thanks
    PS: I use Vista home premium 32 bit.

    Due to the number of problems with "upgrading" to this OS level, I suggest you try the very clean and very forceful AutoLoader OS Reload:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...
    Beware that it is completely destructive...the device will be "like new"...no data, no apps, no accounts, etc. Be sure you take a full backup first, as well as make full manual documentation of all apps, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduces the very corruption one is trying to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is necessary.
    You can also use this to fall back to a prior OS if you desire...you can install any OS level for which you can find an AutoLoader. (Hint...search over on the CB site!)
    Good luck and let us know!

  • [solved] Problem with HPLip since last update

    Hi,
    since last system update my printer (HP LaserJet M1212nf) which is shared via network does not work any longer. Scanning via xsane works only printing is affected.
    Everytime if I want to print any document all I'll get is something like this:
    http://privatepaste.com/download/c84615c35d
    There isn't any error message or similar. Printing starts as expected, but the result would look like above
    hplip 3.12.4-1 and also the required plugin is installed correctly.
    kernel 3.3.7-1-ARCH
    cups 1.5.3-3
    Can anyone help me?
    regards,
    gnux

    I have no clue what happened between updates but it seems that my printing is borked.
    First off, details:
    HP Deskjet F4140, using the hpijs ppd file that comes with hplip. I've tried printing in LibreOffice and vim. Both produce this strange page:
    http://imgur.com/G6Ex6
    I'm at a complete loss for what to do. I've tried removing all the printers from CUPS, unplugging and replugging the printer, hp-setup, etc. I even tested the "device" tab under Printer Options and tried to make it use Postscript instead of PDF. I think there's something wrong in the configuration and I don't know where to look or what to search for on the net. I tried searching for various phrases here on the forum and the CUPS wiki page had nothing on this subject...
    Help?

  • Problems with Wireless since last update of NetworkManager

    Hello Everyone,
    Yesterday I updated NetworkManager (and also, wpa_supplicant if I remember right, and kdeplasma-applets-networkmanagement). The problem now is that I connect to my Wireless and then after a few seconds (maybe 1minute max), I can't use my internet connection anymore, but the applet says that it is still connected. To make it work again I need to disconnect and then re-connect again.
    Here are the information I can give :

    Similar symptoms here. However, my problem was not solved by downgrading networkmanager (tried to networkmanager-0.9.4.0-6, same issue here).
    nm-applet correctly lists available interfaces and tries to authenticate to my AP, gets an IP right away but straight after I lose it and then it looks like it's trying to reconnect for a long time. Sometimes it seems like I connected after a while and get an IP, but can't really do anything except ping my own IP.

  • It came to my attention there a new program working with itune since last update named Apsdaemon.exe its been using 99% of my processor when its active any idea why so much and will it be fix eventually? And why is it so Heavy consuming ?

    It came to my attention there a new program working with itune since last update named Apsdaemon.exe its been using 99% of my processus when its active.
    Any idea why so much and will it be fix eventually because before last update i never encounter any issue using Itune? Now when that aplication or extention from Itune is working my computor froze to a huge alt. I play video games online and love listening to my music with itune playing in the background and normally was able to have firefox open and a program called ventrillo all working at the same time and now i can barelly have itune and play a game. As soon it start been choppy i just control alt delete wait 5 minute to close down apsdaemon.exe when i'm capable most of the time i have to restart my computor. And why is it so Heavy consuming on the process its memory utility is under the 100ko i believe so why 99% of my processus is been use ?
    a good exemple i could give is itune.exe working it shows process 02% for 123 000ko that is light and perfect.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

  • Address Book repetitive crashes since last updates ?

    Hello,
    I do apologize for the length of this post but I don't know how to shorten it without removing some details useful to understand the problem encountered.
    My sister has got an intel iMac with Tiger 10.4.10 and since last updates (10.4.9 and/or 10.4.10) she cannot use AB more than some seconds. It crashes consistently everytime it is open, even if no other action is done. There are also problems with iChat, iCal, Safari and Mail (but less than with AB).
    When I visited her recently, I had a look to the console (even though I'm far from being an expert myself but I tried to find a track before asking here).
    I noticed that for both crashes (Safari and AB), there was this mention :
    quote
    +CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): plist parse failed; the data is not proper UTF-8. The file name for this data could be:+
    + /Users/nnnnn/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook/MetaData/.info+
    + The parser will retry as in 10.2, but the problem should be corrected in the plist.+
    +Error in createMutableDictionaryValue:1012 for property 'URLs' 'XML parser error:+
    + Unexpected character = at line 1+
    +Old-style plist parser error:+
    + Unexpected character '0x3d' at line 1+
    +Aug 23 19:03:07 Ordinateur-2-nnnnn crashdump[465]: Exited process crashed+
    +Aug 23 19:03:07 Ordinateur-2-nnnnn crashdump[465]: crash report written to: /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Exited process.crash.log+
    unquote
    because of the "+not proper UTF8+" I tried to change it in AB preferences/vCard/encodage in "+proper UTF8+" and because of "+Old-style plist parser: error Unexpected character+" I tried to check and validate fonts of Fontbook. Unsuccessfully.
    Back home, I searched on the web and read somewhere that there could be a problem with the "catalog" that could only be repaired by DiskUtility from the install disk. That was done today but the "*hard disk seems to be OK*" and AB crashed as usual when open.
    there were two crash reports, one for AB and one for ABsync (? curious since she has no .mac account and does not sync her mobile phone).
    The AB crashlog(1) finishes so :
    quote
    +Thread 3 Crashed:+
    +0 <<00000000>> 0xffff0b54 __memcpy + 948 (cpu_capabilities.h:228)+
    +1 ...apple.AddressBook.framework 0x9478a9f7 c4_Column::FetchBytes(long, int, c4_Bytes+
    unquote
    and the ABSync crashlog(2) :
    quote
    +Thread 0 Crashed:+
    +0 <<00000000>> 0xffff0af6 __memcpy + 854 (cpu_capabilities.h:228)+
    +1 ...apple.AddressBook.framework 0x9478a9f7 c4_Column::FetchBytes(long, int, c4_Bytes+
    unquote
    and finally when I asked her for a screenshot of her ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook, I was surprised (comparing with my folder) to find she has three ABPerson.skIndexInverted files (I have only one) the second file is ABPerson.skIndexInverted.218 and the third ABPerson.skIndexInverted.286.
    I suppose two are toomuch but which ones have to be delete ...
    Sorry for this (too) long post and hope the light will come from some reader better educated in hard and softwares than us.
    (1) (2) I have a longer version of these crashlogs but this post is already very long and I'll post them only on request (if needed)!

    Hello Josy.
    After fixing the filesystem issues, which you say you’ve already done, try re-creating the Address Book files that may have become corrupt, one at a time, as follows — or restore them from a backup if you have one:
    1. Quit Address Book, Mail, and any other applications that might use Address Book for something. Or just quit all applications to be on the safe side.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/. Make a backup copy of this folder, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your contacts are stored.
    3. Go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Move com.apple.AddressBook.plist and com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist (if it exists) out of there (e.g. to the Desktop). Check whether the problem is fixed.
    4. If Address Book keeps crashing, go to ~/Library/Caches/ and move the Address Book and com.apple.AddressBook folders to the Trash (there is no need to empty the Trash yet). Check whether the problem is fixed.
    5. If Address Book keeps crashing, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ and trash any ABPerson.skIndex files you may see there. Check whether the problem is fixed.
    6. If Address Book keeps crashing, try again trashing both AddressBook.data and any ABPerson.skIndex files that may have been re-created, then rename AddressBook.data.previous to AddressBook.data.
    7. If Address Book keeps crashing, try moving the entire AddressBook folder out of ~/Library/Application Support/.
    The above procedure may introduce synchronization issues if you use .Mac or iSync to synchronize your Address Book with other computers or devices, so be sure to back up your Address Book data now if the problem is fixed.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • IMAC mirroring is not working with my IMAC and Apple TV since last update

    Hi friends,
    since last update I am facing problems with my IMAC and airplay via apple tv to my HD TV screen. It is not working. Only audio but not video. I believe it has something to do with IMAC mirroring, which is not possible to select only expanded desktop. Airply on my TV is working with my IPAD, so it should be a problem with my IMAC only.
    Did someone of You make the same experience or know what to do?
    Thanx in advance

    Hello, H1Daisensei. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here is an article that you may find helpful when experiencing this issue.

  • Since last update of Pages, my Pages app in iPad anda iPhone doesn't open, it closes suddenly. I already deleted it and reinstalled, but still not works.

    Since last update of Pages, my Pages app in iPad anda iPhone doesn't open, it closes suddenly. I already deleted it and reinstalled, but still not works.
    Can someone help? Do I need to wait for another update?
    Thanks

    This is my problem that has to originate from the update.  So glad that I did not purchase a MacBook!  Apple products/apps are appearing to be not different from Windows products.
    I have deleted and reinstalled from the device and desktop, resets, etc.  When I uninstalled and reinstalled while connected to my desktop, the older version of pages was installed.  I was able to see all of my files that were saved to the cloud.  I was forced to update again to access any of the saved files.  Once updated again, I could no longer open pages.  It began, to open and abruptly shut down.

  • Since last update 25/03/12, bank transactions difficulty

    I bank on line with no problems in the pat. Since last update on my iMac 25/03/12, I have been unable to carry out transfer  transactions between my accounts.  With the following System Error notice: " Missin Plan ID in Transfer Details Construct" Pleaseclick BACK then use the browser refresh button to continue. Which did notwork.  Bank rep tells me it is probably as a result of the up dates and I should contact Safari or use internet explorer instead. They say they do not support Safari!  Can any one advise please what I should do?

    Sorry I meant last update performed on 15/03/12! 
    I am running MAC OS X Version 10.6.8 and Safari Version 5.1.4 (6534.54.16).
    The lady at IF bank customer service implied that the problem must be due to the latest update.  She would not put me through to their IT deparment for help as she said they do not provide support for Safari. Intead she suggested go to Safari or Apple for help or we try using Internet Explorer or Firefox to resolve the problem.
    We have been using Safari to do our online banking with IF for years without any difficulty until apparently since the last up date on 15/03/12. Since the bank does not appear to want to help.  Surely the bank IT department and Apple/ Safari are in a better position to resove my difficulty with the updates than asking us novices to to change our browser? I did not even know that is noInternet Explore for Mac.
    May I have some guidance on the best way to proceed please? 

  • Since last update I do not have a "delete" button showing on a toolbar. Therefore, I cannot delete emails without opening them. Please help.

    Since last update I do not have a "delete" button showing on a toolbar. Therefore, I cannot delete emails without opening them. Please help.

    Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

  • Wifi dropping constantly since last update

    My wifi has been dropping off every five minutes since last update. My current system version is Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549).
    Second me if anyone experienced the same problem.

    It's likely that the update included new definitions or profiles for wifi that your routers are having trouble with. This doesn't indicate that anything is broke, just that iPhones on the newest software are going to have issues with that configuration of wifi. If you have access to your router's settings, try connecting on a different chanel or disabling the security to see if the phone connects that way. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199 has some recomended settings, but you may find that changing the name of your network or the security that you are using will fix this issue.
