QMaster and the never ending encode

I've exported a QT file (not self-contained), set up my QMaster successfully (I've run several with no problems). I've set it up with 4 instances, although I've tried as many as 7. Drop it in Compressor 3.0.5, submit and select my cluster I've created. It begins rendering like a champ. Then, right near the end, one of the segments just takes forever. It basically freezes as the time slowly goes up. I've tried fewer cores, more cores, etc. It's always the last one that freezes. It's driving me freaking nuts.
I've trashed my prefs, ran disc utility, reset background processing in compressor and trashed a couple qmaster folders (sorry, I can't remember where they are, I was following advice given in a post). All to no avail. I've not re-installed compressor yet.

Reinstalling the applications is almost aways a waste of time. There's rarely anything wrong with the software, it's almost always user error or mechanical issues. In your case, the obvious first debug step would be export self-contained and see what happens. It is a safe guess—from where I'm sitting—that your bad segment is the problem. I'm betting it's got several layers, several effects, requires transcoding, or is a .motn file.

Snow Leopard, Exchange and the never ending quest to check my email

I don't think I'll get the check my email before I graduate. I've been trying for over a year and I still can't get my email to play nicely in the sandbox with my computer. The old Mail didn't work because Exchange wasn't supported... now I've upgraded to Snow Leopard where I was assured by the Apple people and the IT guys that new Mail would work... now however I've discovered that our Exchange server isn't right (something about server pack 4). I would really love to be able to see my email on my computer... does anybody have any creative ideas for accessing Exchange accounts via Mail for Mac?

Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

Safari and the never ending spinner

I ran into a Safari spinner issue today. I was able to access a site via FF but Safari was just spinning. The site was https and a site that I had accessed months ago in Safari but had since changed IP addresses. I tried to reset Safari and I did a
dscacheutil -flushcache
Still just a spinner.
Then I tried https://urlofsite.com/login, still spinner, so I clicked the stop button, manually edited the url to take off everything but https://urlofsite.com/ then hit return and presto, the confirm dialog for the certificate came up and I was on my way.
Turns out Safari was displaying the spinner and thought it was displaying the drop down certificate confirmation dialog, the one that animates out of the window header bar, but it wasn't there and the only way to get it to come up was to follow the steps above.
Weird stuff.
I hope this helps others with similar issues

hello,
I'm running into the very same problem, got this kind of issue with some https websites.
Note that :
- firefox works fine with theses https sites,
- safari seems to work fine with http sites,
- other macos apps seems to have troubles reaching https site (gmail notifier for instance)
- I can't reach https websites at work where I'm behind a Squid http proxy.
Got this issue on a brand new 10.5.3 (leopard fresh install + combo update)

ISync and the never ending dashboard widget loop

Ok, I'm only trying to iSync two macs... I have all the same widgets on both...
I will delete a widget from Mac number one, I get an iSync notification on Mac number two, that one widget is to be removed...
Great huh?
Now back to the first mac. I get a notification that iSync wants to add a widget (surprise it is the same widget I deleted)...
On to mac 2... Now I get a notification that iSync wants to add a widget (surprise again it is the same widget)...
So if I have iSync enabled I cannot delete a widget. They just keep coming back...
I've already had to give iSync a database enema to make the contacts and calendar sync again (they had just stopped one day for some unknown reason). Now I have to figure out how the heck to delete a widget and make it stay deleted.
Anybody had a similar issue? Ideas anyone?

You're unlikely to get an answer in here. Your issue is not related to iSync - it's related to *.Mac Sync*, and the correct forum for that is here:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=957
(iSync is for syncing Contacts and Calendars to supported mobile phones and PDAs - it does not sync computers or to .Mac).

E-coupon and the never ending story...

A simple process print the form, fill it out and in 6 to 8 weeks you'll get an "e-coupon" for $200! It would have been simpler to fill it out on line but Apple being one of the most advaced computer makers in the world decided to use the first mentioned method and now with everyone getting their coupons I wondered where mine had gone.
A call to the number on the status website told the story. They entered my email address wrong and now they tell me my e-coupon will be 2 weeks in comming, at least the last time I called because in three calls they still had not corrected the problem or my email address so I wonder just who got my $200 e-coupon?

I posted this another another topic. Anyone have any clue?
Well, here's a new twist. I purchased the Academic Edition of Aperture 1.0 DIRECTLY from Apple and when the rebate was announced, I applied for it. A couple of weeks later I received a letter stating that my serial number "cannot be read, is incomplete, or was not recognized as a valid serial number". OK, my penmanship isn't the best, so I sent them one of the Aperture Software Coupons with one of the serial number stickers attached to it thinking that this would surely be sufficient proof of ownership. Today, I received the same letter again. I just got off the phone with their help desk and all they could tell me was that my serial number isn't eligible for the rebate with no reason why. When I spoke with the supervisor, they stated they don't have access to that information, only that it comes up as ineligible.
Did I miss something? Were there qualifications to the rebate that I overlooked? As a PC user trying to make the switch, this kind of customer service dosen't bode well.
(I understand that Apple doesn't allow the free exchange of information on these boards so the moderators will probably delete this post fairly quickly. If you have some insight, you can email me at davedotmelvinatgmaildotcom)

When I turn on firefox the sound of an alarm begins and keeps going. I did not download or add or open anything. A sound like the old pacman game initiates the never ending alarm. It does not occur with safari and ends if I close firefox.

== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== I opened firefox

dont have google open in a tab!!!!!!!!
(if you are one who opens FF and it opens google then immediately open another tab to go to a site then just visit the site from the page that opened without opening a new tab)
OR
if you have cool preview then disable that
(the sound is for the celebration of 30 years of pacman and you can play the game on google's homepage)

The never ending Connecting to ISP mesage-but never happens

For the last week I have had no problems with my Extreme base station which connects through Dial up and is extendeded by a Airport Express station to provide coverage to several of my families laptops. Today - I asked airport to connect like always (I dont have it configured for automatic dial) and while it began dialing like normal got stuck on the message connecting to ISP. Needless to say I have tried everything including resetting it, (which by the way is the only way I can stop the connecting to ISP message on Internet Connect) I have disconnected and turning every computer off as well as the express station and physically I reset the base station via paper clip and used the Airport assistant to set the base station up like new - but no dice. Everytime it dials (and I have actually picked up the phone to listen) it makes the call but when the message Connecting to ISP is displayed the phone goes silent and the computer is stuck displaying the scrolling message that it is connecting to the ISP. But NADA! Do you think my ISP or phone company changed something??? Could it be new firmare or airport software taking effect? Man if you have any ideas - please help.

Well I got ahold of (AppleCare) - more specifically - Sean in Austin - a product specialist who took me through - tons of stuff annnnd - NADA - had to escalate it to engineering who probably won't be able to answer until Thursday. Interestingly we were able to hook up to a Apple Server without a problem but my ISP still gives the never ending "Connecting to ISP" message - later I called my ISP and they said if your able to connect the computer to there ISP but not the router - then it isnt there problem - its Apple.
STUCK till Thursday without my EXTREME! REAK

Hi Ken,
Wow, I've logged into adobe and never seen your response until now.
I need to make the forums more of a daily stop I guess.
Thank you for your response, When I go to the Archives, it states I have none. In addition, previously when I'd tried to move items to the archive, they just disappeared
Currently my desktop is not connecting at all, Everytime I connect, it's states "We have now logged you out" and requests I login again.
I have of course rebooted,
Gone into taskmanager, killed all the relevant threads, tried again to login through the desktop, no luck, I'll have to uninstall it, make sure the threads are killed, then reboot it and then reinstall it, but I've not had the time to do that.
On another note, and just as a point of reference, myself, personally, I hate these "cloud" file repositories (not to be confused with adobe cloud services which I love) but the file repositories themselves imho, are a blackhole of resource usage when one doesn't/isn't using them,
Is there a way we can use it more of a "ftp" sort of thing, when I want to I can put files there? There is no way to "Download" the repository, no way to download the folders.. only individual files and then it takes I think three different steps before the download starts.. I find this very inhibiting. Just an fyi. for what it's worth.
Please, feel free to contact me,
I'm on g+ chat [email protected]

SOLUTION for the never ending reboot loop when charging

I used my iPad until the battery was completely flat, then when I went to charge it, it got stuck in the never ending reboot loop where it shows the Apple logo for about 30 seconds, then shows the home screen for a split second before shutting down and repeating the whole process again and again.
So here's what you need to do to fix this problem without having to restore or plug into iTunes.
1. Plug in the charger
2. When the Apple logo appears, unplug the charger
3. As soon as you see the home screen appear, plug the charger back in. You need to do this quickly as the home screen only shows for a split second
4. The loading wheel should appear and shut down the iPad
5. Leave the iPad for a good 30mins or so just to get some battery life into before you start using it again.
And that's it!

The problem with write permissions for the OneDrive folder only shows up in Lightroom 6's export dialogue, that's why it's to irritating. Lightroom 5.7.1 is not having that problem nor does the file explorer. The problem also exists on both of my machines.

How to adjust the green (starting) and the red (end) rectangles pixel by pixel (top, bottom, left and right) by changing the number of pixels in ken burns.

How to adjust the green (starting) and the red (end) rectangles pixel by pixel (top, bottom, left and right) by changing the number of pixels in ken burns. Help please.

If you look closely at the top of the canvas pane, as you move either of the boxes (green or red) there is an indication of pixel positions... "top, bottom, left, right," and "scale."
Admittedly, it doesn't seem as if you can "enter" the dimensions with your keyboard, however, as you move the boxes, you have a real time indication of the boxs' locations.
(I couldn't take a screen shot, as you have to actively move the box with a mouse or other input device... thus, I could not also take a screen shot with same device.)
I hope this helps.

IOS and Activesync mail Exchange (the never ending story)

Hi All,
And here we go again: even with the update 8.1.3 Mail with Exchange ActiveSync stopped working.
The problem occurs now in every update from 8.0 (and even with upgrades version 7.x). For each upgrade of IOS email and activesync stop working, not only in push mode but also in scheduled mode (eg every 15 minutes). The email does not update until I access mail app.
The Exchange Server does not change for years, and the solution must be provided on IOS from Apple and not from Microsoft Exchange Server since the problem occurs only on IOS and only after updates of iOS. This story is really frustrating. No Android or Microsoft Phone has never had this problem. I begin to think that changing phone is the only alternative.
I do not want to buy paid app to use the e-mail, a feature that should work perfectly with the default tools of a smartphone device from 729 EUR.
