Programs missing from menu after install?

Hey guys just got my install up and running, using Cinnamon desktop.
So, after installing a program via pacman it wont populate in my menu until I reboot. For instance chrome, I can launch it from the terminal but can find it when I search for it under applications, once I reboot its right where it should be.
any ideas, I like to not reboot every time I install a package.

I don't use Cinammon so I can't test it, but maybe you can just log out and log back in? I know it isn't a solution but it should be quicker than rebooting.

Missing file system after installing in SSD

Missing file system after installing in SSD MacBook
Hi All
I recently installed a SSD drive in my Macbook, I used the Disk Utility to clone the old HDD.
When i reboot the machine with the new disk I get the image of a folder with question mark.
If i reboot the machine again and hold the alt key at the chime I can see two disks.
One called SSD and another called Recovery.
if i choose the SSD the OS starts as normal and if i choose the recovery option and check the disk with disk utility
it tells me that everything is fine.
Any ideas how i can make the machine boot as it should without having to hold down the alt key a start up??

Hi i tried this and just got the big symbol of doom at start up.
However, a little terminal witchcraft did the trick!
sudo bless -mount /Volumes/"Macintosh HD" -setBoot

HT204587 touch id & passcode missing from menu

touch id & passcode missing from menu on new iphone 5s

I am still trying to understand my issue. I believe more and more than it is some kind of limits on password characters or complexity:
- http://images.apple.com/ipad/business/docs/iOS_Security_Feb14.pdf, in February 2014, Apple indicates than you can use long passwords but only limited to alphanumeric characters: "iOS supports four-digit and arbitrary-length alphanumeric passcodes". Nevertheless, they also speak about complex characters without detailing what it means.
- http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jason-gilbert/use-accented-letters-iphone-passcode -secure_b_2765927.html, this report from Jason Gilbert (Feb 2013) recommends to use complex/special characters but indicated that "Apple added the ability to turn your passcode into a combination of numbers and letters, from 5 to 12 characters in length".
-https://developer.apple.com/.../leRef/Introduction/Introduction.html gives more detail listing some of the "authorised" complex characters: "A complex character is a character other than a number or a letter, such as &%$#".
I am still a little bit confused regarding which characters can be used. Apparently, lenght is not a problem for passcode and we can use some complex characters but considering I was using spaces " ", simple quote " ' ", " - ", puctuation " ! " and accentuated characters "é", I may have used an "unsuported" passcode.

New Bitmap missing from context menu after installing photoshop

After installing photoshop CS6 from CD onto Windows 7x64; my context menu > New > bitmap is no longer available. registry settings are intact and I've used Bridge ro reassociate .bmp with mspaint but the option still does not appear. The installation of photoshop is the only change to the computer in several months.
I can workaround by creating new txt files and changing the extension but this adds a step to a (non photoshop related) workflow that's been in place and worked well for years.

I don't know why Photoshop would kill the system default entry for new bitmap - possibly because it has associated itself with that file type.
First thing to look at - start Adobe Bridge CS6, go into the Edit - Preferences - File Type Associations dialog, and see if you can re-associate MSPAINT.EXE with the BMP format. That may correct the issue, but I can't say for certain as I don't want to try it here and change my own setup.
I don't use the New context menu functionality for making new bitmaps myself, but when I looked to see what shows up in my New context menu, I found this:
Choosing the IrfanView BMP File entry led to this:
If you can't recover the old functionality via the Bridge settings, it may be that you can install the freeware viewer IrfanView and have it associate itself with the BMP file type.

Place in Indesign Missing from CS4 after CS5 install

I have noticed that on two of our macs after installing CS5 that the Place in Indesign command in CS4 bridge is no longer appearing in the list anymore, all other choices are there, Does anyone have a fix for this. - thanks!

From another Forum Gabe Harbs was so kind to provide a solution with a script that needs a little modification. Here is his message:
Gabe Harbs wrote:
Here’s a Bridge script (that I wrote over a year ago) which adds a context menu to relink the selected file to the currently selected frame in InDesign.
You install the script in: App Support > Adobe > Startup Scripts [Version] > Adobe Bridge.
It would be a pretty simple task to modify the script to place the file instead of relinking...
Harbs
It's not possible to include a jsx or zip file on this forum, I therefor placed it on Rapid Share, it will not stay there forever so just check it out ASAP

Files missing from library after archive and install

Hi forum folk
any help you could give would be much appreciated.
I can't seem to verify my permissions on HD. I have run disk utility both from finder and from my OSX startup disk and consistently get the error message "Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue." I then reinstalled the operating system all together making sure to archive and install as well as archive previous network and preference settings. This means I am running 10.3.4 at the moment (and I can't verify any of the software updates at the moment). After reinstalling I still cannot verify my permissions, so now I am trying to back up all my files so that I can reinstall the OSX again, erase everything, and start from scratch. But I'm running into some very strange problems while doing this. select files are missing from ~/library. there is no Safari file, for example. I tried looking in HD/previous systems/library where my library files were saved before I reinstalled the operating system but there is no such folder in there either. this means all of my bookmarks are gone. additionally, under library/preferences (in both the old and new library folders) there is no file named com.apple.itunes.plst. so all of my itunes playlists are gone as well. these are the only missing files I have found thus far and i can't explain why they selectively would not have been saved after the archive and install. Everything else seems to be intact. Any ideas?
thanks

powerbookG4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) running 10.3.4 at the moment - can't verify permissions on 10.3.9

jbeep:
my HD has a capacity of 8.85 GB available. When I reinstalled panther I had little more than 3 GB available (I deleted a bunch of unneeded things since then)
Thanks for this update. What is the total formatted capacity of your HDD? I ask because I suspected that you might be cutting it pretty close. The rule of thumb is that you should have 10-15% of your total capacity available as free space. My personal rule is 15%-20%. This allows for more efficient perfomrance of OS X.
I am in the process of backing up everything on my seagate combo USB 2.0/firewire 200 GB external (I am using the firewire cord)
Having an up-to-date backup is one of the primary rules, often observed more in the breach than not. Since you have an HDD that supports Firewire, I suggest that you make a bootable clone of your entire HDD using SuperDuper. You can then use this backup as an emergency boot drive. However, it must be Firewire, as PPC Macs don't boot from USB devices.
I also have heard that it is advisable to reinstall the OS "every now and again" and I hadn't done this for at least two years. was I ill-advised?
Most experienced Mac users never re-install, except under dire circumstances. Since installing my new HDD in this computer I have never re-installed. Re-installation is the utlimate intrusive measure, and it exposes one to all kinds of issues, from lost data, to flawed installaton, to installations that fail midstream. Re-installation is not an effective maintenace procedure. Here are some helpful links in terms of maintenance:
Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System maintenance
Macintosh OS X Routine Maintenance
Maintaining OS X.
I'm going to restart now and try and verify my permissions again using the procedure on the above link. I'll let you know what happens.
Instead of verifying permissions, just go ahead and Repair Disk Permissions. Verifying permissions does nothing, and wastes your time, as it is difficult to tell whether you need to repair, and you have to repair anyway.
Do post back with an update of your progress and any further questions or comments.
Good luck.

IPhoto events and pictures missing from iPhoto after restoring new hard drive and upgrade to iLife11

My iPhoto events and pictures are ALL missing from my iPhoto Library after I tried restoring my programs on a new hard drive AND upgrading to iLife11! Over the last few months, I upgraded my 2008 Macbook Pro's hard drive from a 250 GB to a 500 GB hard drive and since then have been manually installing and restoring programs and software. I decided to do things manually because I had problems with doing Time Machine backups/restores in the past, so before I upgraded the drive, I manually saved everything to a Western Digital MyStudio 1 TB hard drive that I had just for the purposes of a second back up. Anyway, I tried importing the pictures onto the new library, but couldn't find the hard copies at first, so that didn't work. I then tried deleting the iPhoto Library that came with new operating system, then copying my old backup onto the new hard drive...that didn't work either. However, when I right clicked on the iPhoto Library icon on my external hard drive (the original) and clicked on "show package contents," the folder not only contained the originals, but they were still organized by year and event just as I had them originally!
So, then I thought "why don't I try just importing the pictures directly into the new iPhoto Library!"
I tested it out, and sure enough, it worked! I then tried importing an entire folder (which, was actually the name of the event), and again it worked! So, I literally clicked and dragged my entire 2007-2009 library of pictures (which was about 35 GB) back into my iPhoto Library! AND, this only took about 30 minutes to download, enough time for me to write this post and the following instructions to Recap:
          1. Open your new iPhoto Library
          2. Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon
          3. Click on "Show Package Contents"
          4. Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
          5. Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
          6. DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto! For some reaseon, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there!
I assume this could work on other iLife programs, but luckily I have MobileMe and my iCalendar updated itself, though I did have to do some tweeking...
Hope this helps other people out, GOOD LUCK!

I'm re-posting the answer to this problem so I can show it has been answered:
Open your new iPhoto Library
Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon
Click on "Show Package Contents"
Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto! For some reason, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there!
          GOOD LUCK!!!

Effects missing from clips after PP update

I have asked this question before, but nobody responded with any useful suggestions. Let me try again.
I spent an incredible amount of time keyframing Beauty Box effects on a timeline in Premiere Pro 8.0 during fall 2014. When I upgraded to 8.1, all the effects are simply gone from the timeline. To be clear, there are no "missing effects" messages; they are just gone.
Beauty Box is still installed and is an effect I can add to my clips with ease, but somehow, the update stripped all the effects off the timeline when it the project is updated to the new version.
Luckily, there is one machine at work that is still on 8.0 and recognizes my old project correctly. But - PP crashes literally every single time I try to adjust the Beauty Box effects that I spent many, many hours tweaking already.
Exporting an AAF also doesn't work: PP crashes every single time I try.
Short of adding the effect all over again to every clip and starting from scratch, is this a known issue to Adobe and is there a solution? I hesitate to upgrade Beauty Box, as updating any software in the middle of a project is a bad idea (see above).
And here are bonus issues: I use a Saffire Pro 14 for audio on my system. Everything was fine until the other day, when it stopped playing AIFs. If I try to import one and place it in the source monitor, everything locks up and PP crashes. There have been no hardware or software updates in these areas for literally months (aside form "upgrading" to the latest PP version about a month or so ago). The files play normally outside of PP. The solution to this, I found after a good bit of experimenting, is to switch to the Adobe audio driver. But why?
Also, I have a two monitor system. The right monitor is my program view. I usually set it nearly full screen (but not quite). Suddenly, it started taking up the entire screen with no borders (and no accessible controls) yesterday. I can't find a command to restore it to normal. (~ doesn't do it).
Another frustrating issue: warning boxes that normally appear on top of everything onscreen have begun appearing behind other PP windows, giving me the annoying system error noise whenever I try to touch anything. the only way I have found to reveal them is to switch to another program then toggle back to PP.
All of this has made it virtually impossible for me to get any work done on this project. Gotta say I'm not loving PP right now.er literally a month,
Message was edited by: Charles Mumford
UPDATE - after literally a month, all my missing effects re-appeared on my timeline tonight. Why? Who knows? But I'm glad they're back.

I have almost the same problem. As a workaround, I can check "sync all music" rather than "sync checked music" in iTunes. (By the way, it worked for a couple weeks and now it doesn't). I'm fortunate that all my music fits on my touch (though just barely). The only album that still exists on my ipod (officially anyways) is one that I bought from iTunes after upgrading.
Also, I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I haven't figured out how to make that work (they disappeared too).
Anybody know how to get back to a position where I can decide what I want for music and don't have to put everything on my touch?

Photoshop batch processing missing from menu

Hi everyone:
I'm having a terrible time today trying to process the 3500 images I've got. I set up an action to process them, but I can't figure out how to link them to be used through Bridge. I'm running Bridge CS5 with PS CS4, and I'm used to going to Tools->Photoshop->Batch. It's missing entirely from the menu.
I did a bunch of research and found that this issue likely has something to do with the Startup Scripts. So I checked those, and Photoshop is missing from the options. I can't find where that script right reside, as the folder the scripts are supposed to live in appears to be empty (I do have Adobe Bridge CS5 and InDesign CS5 as options, though the script folder itself is empty).
If it's a simple matter of installing the appropriate script, where might I find it? And if not, how can I solve the problem?

If it's a simple matter of installing the appropriate script, where might I
find it? And if not, how can I solve the problem?
By default they are installed in the library at root level ( Mac OS:
//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CS4/Adobe Photoshop/)
but I have no experience with - nor would I recommend - the use of CS5
Bridge with PSCS4.
If you don't have installed PSCS5 for whatever reason your fastest way would
be to start Bridge CS4. Let the folder with the files cache first and use
that Bridge version with PSCS4 to perform your batch. BTW, you can save and
export the actions from PSCS4 as a set and import them again in PSCS5.
And of course you could also open the batch in PS itself like we used to do
in the past before Bridge. PS/File/Automate/Batch and choose the folder you
want to apply the batch in.

Folders missing from Bookmarks after update to Firefox 9

First, system info:
I'm on Mac OS 10.5.8
I was using Firefox 3 until yesterday when I updated to 9. Had no apparent problems with bookmarks after the update but I had not closed the session; it was only after starting up this morning that all my bookmark folders are missing from the Bookmarks Menu.
I've been through all the "lost bookmarks" sections of Firefox - no answers there to my specific problem.
Most of them focus on bookmarks being completely missing - but in my case it's only the Folders that are missing.
Here are at least some of the pages I've looked at and been through all the suggestions that were relevant:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Lost%20Bookmarks
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks#Bookmarks_missing_after_restarting
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues
There was a momentary power-down yesterday, but the folders were still there when the power came back on, so that's not it.
There was one anomaly with the way my bookmarks WERE. That is, when I selected Bookmarks from the top navigation bar, go down the drop-down past Bookmarks Toolbar, instead of all my folders being displayed there, I'd have to go to Bookmarks Menu and then to a side panel of the Menu which showed a
folder saying All Bookmarks and from there I'd have to go to another side panel that opened off that to access the list of all my folders and run down to select one. This strange functionality came after some previous update, never could fix that and got no help with it. So I just put up with having more mouse work to get to my sites.
This is a serious problem for me - I am in training on SEO, internet marketing, Wordpress, etc plus running another business. EVERYTHING I rely upon for my work was meticulously organized into those folders, which now
seem to be gone.
Are there any seriously technical people in Firefox/Mozilla who can go deeper than the stuff suggested on their websites?

You can make a backup copy of all JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder to be sure not to lose any of them. There should be 10 in Firefox 9 versions.
On (newer) Mac OS X versions with the Time Machine there is the possibility to restore an older copy of the places.sqlite file. I don't know if that is possible on your computer.

Almost all program shortcuts quit working after installing Quick Time 7

After installing Quick time 7, I noticed that all my desktop icons and menu icons except for a few windows 7 programs had changed to the quick time icon. When I clicked on that icon, I got the message that quick time did not recognize that program and could not open it. I cannot even access system restore
does anyone know how to repair this short of doing a complete re-install of Windows 7 (32 bit) and reinstalling all of the programs?

Are you able to get through to your System Restore if you start the PC in Safe mode?

Missing Solaris MDBexec after install/reboot

I installed Solaris 10 on a system with the DVD (iso checksummed ok). After install when I reboot the system I get the message "Missing Solaris MDBexec" and the computer hangs. What is happening?
System has 256MB memory, Memorex DVD drive, 10GB hard drive and Intel Celeron MMX 500MHz processor.

Thanks for the info. I had to install using option 4
and delete all the partitions including the boot
partition to get it to go in correctly.That is, you had the system installed with a separate boot partition
when the HDD complained about the "missing Solaris MDBexec"?
Does it work now, after removing all partitions and installing from
scratch, without the separate boot partition?

Programs missing from Programs and Features

Hi,
I wonder if someone can help me.
A few weeks back i accidentally downloaded a program that wasn't from a reliable source, which in turn downloaded a bunch of junk on my computer. It was stupid of me, i'm usually really careful!
I managed to get in and remove most of them, but then all of a sudden all but a few of my programs completely disappeared from Programs and features. Flash Player, Google Chrome, Firefox and a few other programs were the only ones hat remained. The major
programs that were missing from the list are still working fine from what i can see, but i didn't get the chance to remove a few items of adware and they are still active on my computer and being as irritating as an STI (i'd imagine...)
On searching online how to remove these parasites, most of the sites suggest uninstalling from Programs and Features, which i can't do because they aren't on the list! All other suggestions have not worked!
I have tried going into safe mode (with and without networking) and setting up another user profile with admin but the list stays the same.
I can't remember the last time i backed up (Months ago i presume)
Any suggestions?
