Problem with plasma-desktop

After upgrading to kde 4.7 I've a problem with plasma: after login my screen is black with no panel. If I open a terminal and i launch plasma-desktop I obtain the following errors:
giacomo@arch:~$ plasma-desktop &

Why plasma isn't running after login?

So dbus has to be the first daemon placed in the rc.conf list?
Yesterday evening I tried to delete the file /home/giacomo/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc and reboot: at new kde startup the screen was black but there were a panel in the low edge of the scrren, so plasma-desktop was running, but the desktop backgroung was not set. I re-apply all my settings (comic strip, cwp and system monitor) and at the next reboot plasma crashed again.
When I come back to home I try to deactivate plasma activities and to change my rc.conf.

Graphic Upgrade Problem with K430 desktop - Unresolved!

Hi,
Xmas 2012 I purchased a Lenovo IdeaCentre K430 Desktop from PC world.
PC World said it would be upgradable if I need to upgrade it.
The system is:
Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
16.0 GB DDR3
1.8 TB Hardrive
Windows 8
Geforce GT 640
I recently purchased Crysis 3 and its not running very well, so I brought a Geforce GTX 660.
However when I installed and rebooted the PC, I was greated with a blank flashing screen?
other people have simular problems on the GeForce forums.
I have since took the card back PLUS 3 MORE for a refund, and very dissapointed that I can't upgrade this PC.
CAN SOMEONE AT LENOVO PLEASE REPLY WITH A LIST OF 'MODERN/LATEST GRAPHIC CARDS, THAT ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THIS MODEL STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX?
CHANGING THE BIOS SETTINGS DOES NOT WORK FOR ME!
It's been almost 2 years and I've still not found a compatible card, so much for the Ultimate Upgradable PC!
Cheers.

I am having a problem with IRM Desktop version 11.1.54.2 Midware 11.1.1.6.0

Hi everyone,
I am experiencing some serious and strange problems with our IRM desktop client which Works with Java SE 6.30 (JRE 6U30). When I installed them (java and IRM) on Windows 8 Professional, IRM stops print spooler service, and block our clients to print anyting, and add a new printer by clicking ADD PRINTER button under Devices and Printer section. This is the visible face of the issue. However, I believe it affects more than one service on Windows 8 Pro. we did not have any problem with Windows 7 pro, but have a lot of with Windows 8 pro. Does anyone have same / similar experience with the same platform? Thanks for all helps

Sync problem with Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac

Can someone help. I have synchronization problem with my contact in the Outlook for Mac using blackberry desktop software for mac. Seems all details in my blackberry handheld contact got synchronized, but not email addresses (so all names, jobs, companies, work phone, mobile - all got synchronized, but not email addresses). All data is in my handheld. I wish I could just "replace" (not merge/sync) outlook contact with all contact in the handheld but seems there is no option to do that. Let me know please if someone has similar experience and has found out solution. Thanks!

Problem with synchronizing desktop software with Lotus Notes

Problem: synchronizing between blackberry storm and my pc with the desktop manager. During the settings of the configuration is asked for the location of the NOTES.INI file. The configuration program finds the NOTES.INI file it's self.
After selecting the NEXT button I get an announcement that the NOTES.INI file can't be opened and the configuration stops.
I don't know what to do to select the right file or setting so the desktop manager can synchronize with my blackberry.
I hope somebody can help me with this problem.

Synchronization Problems with BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.5v and Windows Mail Client

BlackBerry (RIM) Desktop Manager 4.5v synchronization setup does not work properly. I cannot synchronize my desktop calendar because the only desktop application formats available are (<None>, Ascii Import/Export and Yahoo), Windows Mail is not an option!
I contacted BlackBerry and the only response I received was that I need the Outlook Express program to synchronize my desktop calendar.
Microsoft upgraded from the Outlook program to Windows mail to provide a better program, which I happen to like! The idea of purchasing the Outlook Express software when there is nothing wrong with my current mail program does not make any sense to me! And will BlackBerry support any Vista system issues if there are any compatibility problems with the old Microsoft mail client?
Has anyone contacted BlackBerry about this issue? Any ideas how to fix this problem?
Why can’t Blackberry (RIM) resolve the synchronization issue? In addition to this problem, you may find that the Desktop Manager Device Switch Wizard does not function with the Treo 650 and BlackBerry 8830 and the Advanced feature in Backup and Restore does not seem to save the any files that you want to restore.
BlackBerry Please Help!
Note:
Microsoft Office Standard 2007 is $399, really expensive! Not sure if you can purchase the mail client separately.
- Microsoft website: [“Outlook Express has been replaced by Windows Mail, an improved e‑mail program with enhancements such as junk e‑mail filtering and protection against phishing messages.”]

Hello My8830
You can only synchronize contacts with Windows Mail - you can not synchronize calendar, memos, or tasks. Outlook express does not have these items, and the version of Windows Mail that I am running also does not have them. Windows Calendar is seperate from windows mail on my version of Vista.
So to clarify it all, downgrading to Outlook Express will still not get you calendar synchronization as it does not have a calendar.
Cheers

Problem with Remote Desktop on iPad 2 and windows 8.1 pro

I downloaded the Microsoft Remote Desktop app from the App Store on my iPad 2. I typed in the IP address for my windows 8.1 pro computer on my iPad 2 in school to try connecting to my windows 8.1 pro computer at home. I'm having
a hard time doing it. Do I need a rd remote gateway to access my computer from outside my local network. If so, how do I find my gateway server name? Also, I saw somewhere that I have to press accept in a pop up message on the computer your trying to connect
to. Is this true? No one is home during the day and my iPad 2 has to stay in school. Can you please give me a step by step guide with photos to help me connect to my windows 8.1 pro computer from my iPad 2 from school, which is of course outside my local network.

What is the problem with my desktop imac, that ical has frequent pop ups that say I am not connected to the internet, gives me an option of going offline.

What is the problem with my imac, that ical has frequent pop ups that indicate I am not connected to the server. Gives me an option of going offline. This seems to have started when I began using icloud with all of my devices.

I discovered a simple work-around that is successful (at this point in time anyways) on my IMAC/Maverick when sending attachments (not inline or embedded) to PC users.
There are several threads in here on why attachments embed in mac mail when sending to PCs, and I have had similar issues. Not sure where the fault lies, but other than purchasing an additional program to make mac mail work as other mail programs work when it comes to attachments, I found no real solution that worked for my business PC folks. I did all the right things - sent my attachments in mac mail "windows friendly," "plain text," and "attachments at the end" and still got complaints when sending to my pc workmates using Outlook. I tried another suggestion I found here - zipping the files and sending the zipped file, but my workmates did not like that either and still asked why?
By trial and error I discovered that when I attach any pdf to the email as well as the questionable jpgs, the attachments arrive in their PC inbox as attachments that can be used as needed. I don't know why this works, but it has made sending attachments a happier task for my business group.
I would be interested to see if this works for others.

Problem with N95 Desktop after upgrade to 20.0.015

Hello,
I upgraded my phone's firmware to version 20.0.015 this morning. Before starting the update, I had backed up the phone's memory to my memory card. When the update was finished, everything worked fine until I decided to restore everything from backup, to ensure that I hadn't lost any of my settings/contacts/messages/etc. Ever since I did that, I have been having trouble with my phone's desktop. All of the things that are supposed to appear at the top are gone! ...there's no clock, no operator, no meter for the battery or signal! All I get where they used to be is a thick white/blank bar. So there's my wallpaper and a big white empty bar on top!
I have tried different skins, wallpapers, etc but they won't help. I have also tried going to "Settings> General> Personalisation> Standby Mode", but the option "Active standby apps." is missing... The only two options are "Active standby" (which does nothing -- throws me back to the desktop/standby) and "Shortcuts" (which is used to define the left and right selection keys)... so there's nothing I can do through the "Standby Mode" settings either! I have even tried reverting to "Factory settings", which again didn't fix the problem (though I have to say that when the phone restarted, I did see the things that go on top for a split second).
Does anyone have any idea on what I should do to fix this problem? I am starting to lose hope...
This is my device's version/model data:

Well, there's a work-around but you'll need to spend some time. To get all your data from the Memory card:
- Restore the phone from the Memory card (might break it, though)
- Use PC Suite to make a partial backup (Contacts, Notes, Calendar, Messages but NO phone-settings)
- Reset the phone to get rid of the broken top-bar
- Use PC Suite to restore the Contacts, Notes, etc.
This solution will take some time and it is possible that you cannot backup from the broken phone and/or restore to the newer firmware, but if you have no other options to get all your contacts back, then it might be worth a try.
Also note that messing with phone memory might corrupt the phone...

Problems with Palm Desktop 6.2

I install Palm Desktop 6.2 and HotSync Manager (Windows) in my palm Tx ( I working with windows vista in my pc), after when it is working and I want to enter to the applications this one resetting mi system operation.
please help me.

Palm Desktop 6.2 has been nothing but a HEADACHE. I do not recommend it -- at least not for WinXP and Zire or Treo. It doesn't do anything new anyway, and it may be supported by Access, which is some other company, not Palm.
Problems I had:
-- Cannot Hotsync
-- Corrupted files on Zire, which required full reset
Fortunately I was able to download Palm Desktop 4.2 (still available) and re-install. I had backups to repair files, but all categories were forgotten, so a huge headache.

Wee Problem with Parallels Desktop and the Westmere Mac Pros

Just got my new Westmere 8-Core Mac Pro last Friday, and spent the last four days in agony.
I used Migration Assistant to transfer over my accounts from my old Mac Pro, but it crashed hard -- so hard that I had to reformat the hard drive and do a clean install of the system. So I decided to do a clean install of all of my programs as well, and the Westmere crashed on the Parallels Desktop installation. And, again, it crashed so hard that I had to reformat the hard drive and do a clean install of everything all over again.
Today, I read a review of the Westmere Mac Pros in Macworld (http://www.macworld.com/article/153704/2010/08/quad8_core_macpro_2010.html?lsrc=top2), and learned:
We ran into a problem running Parallels on the Westmere-based Mac Pros, so we could not complete the Speedmark 6 suite of tests. When booted into 64-bit mode (as the new Mac Pros do by default) the systems would crash with Parallels installed. Booting into 32-bit mode would allow the systems to start up, but we still couldn’t use Parallels. We eventually tried a complete wipe and reinstall from the Mac Pro’s systems disc and downloaded the very latest version of Parallels to eliminate any other potential problems, and had the same issue. Apple and Parallels are aware of the problem and assure me that Parallels is working diligently on a fix. The application worked just fine on the new quad-core Mac Pro with the Nehalem processor.
Hoped I saved somebody some time.

Hi akapod,
Looks like they may have the fix out.

Please let me know if it's available and fixes it.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
First off, 10.5.2 is unlikely to be the main culprit to the unexpected quitting. Usually that's the result of corrupt data files, a hard drive that is too full, or a bad directory, or applications which haven't been tested with 10.5.2 that are driver specific. If you want to troubleshoot 10.5.2 more on that account we can help you, if you follow these steps*:

Strange problem with bip desktop. 11.1.1.5

i have a couple of hundred reports made by bip desktop 10.1.3.4.
all reports that i have made is for bip emebedded for enterprise one (9,0).
they work as the should. but now the company upgraded to win7 and office 2010
so i had to upgrade to bip desktop 11.1.1.5.
and now if i download a reports thats made with the old tool. and i change something in it an upload it again the report stop to work.
heard from a partner company that they had the same problem.
it works if i make a complety NEW rtf template. but i cant make changes in the old ones.
anyone experinced this problem and got a soulution for this.
or do i have remake all my reports again with the new desktop tool ?
its very annoying problem. i got tons of changes that is needed to be done in old reports and i dont want to touch them if this will make em stop working
//Magnus

We have the same problem -- many upgraded report that didn't successfully upgrade from 10.1.3.4.1 to 11.1.1.5. One problem now is that templates are now case-sensitive, and all the reports switched from lowercase to uppercase during the upgrade, so no output is produced.
There are many subtle changes in many of the underlying Java libraries. The handling of dates in both output and input paramters seems to change with every version of BIP. Also, report parameters specified as integers appear in the XML output as floating point numbers, so they now fail equality tests in XPath expressions in the templates.
If you have very intricate XSLT/Xpath code in your templates, I would worry about breaking them. Always save the original file before manipulating it in the Desktop add-in. Make one change at a time and test it, because you know debugging templates is not fun.
