Really weird OSX bug. Any ideas chaps?

Hi guys,
Quick one for you, basically whenever I create or save a NEW file to my OS hard drive (I have 4 internal drives) About every 10 seconds a blank .rtf file is created and put on my desktop, regardless of where I save file I had just saved, IE documents, music, whatever.
It looks like this...
[IMG]http://je-design.co.uk/public/rtf.png[/IMG]
Now, I can and have been deleting them, but it's getting annoying, it'll keep creating the files till my desktop is full up.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jake

Hi mate,
The 'CV' is just the name of the file I just saved. If I created a document and called it 'apples' it'd create rtf files under that name to.
Hmm 3rd party eh...

    Have you tried restarting it? Simultaneously press and hold both the Sleep / Wake and Home buttons and keep them depressed until it powers down. Then, press the Sleep / Wake switch to power it back up again.

  • An iframe element works weird in Firefox - any ideas why?

    Hey there,
    Sorry if this is not the right category, but I couldn't find one that seemed more appropriate. I have a question about the iframe element. My page includes it like this:
    <iframe height="0" width="0" src="<some_URL>"></iframe>
    within the <head> element. The purpose of this iframe is to peform some work in the background and this is legacy code - nothing that is being currently developed. When I show the page in Mozilla I see a dot in that iframe. When using IE I see nothing, which is expected.
    Any ideas why Mozilla would show that dot? I'm using version 19.
    Cheers,

  • Weird linking error - any ideas?

    I have a working project and am trying to add an edit screen. After I get the code for the edit stuff in place - before it's even hooked up to the buttons - I get this error when linking, after the compile:
    ".objcclass_nameSomeClassName", referenced from:
    literalpointer@__OBJC@__clsrefs@SomeClassName in SomeFileName.o
    symbols(s) not found
    collect2: Id returned 1 exit status
    Anybody have any idea which direction I should go to figure out what's up? As far I can tell (of course everything is set up right but clearly it's not.

    Well, hmm. I've gone over this several times with a fine-toothed comb and I am certain nothing is spelled wrong and the case is right.
    As far as I can tell, I have the @class BlahBlah declaration in the right place and the right #Include stuff.
    What else might be wrong, that I can look for?
    It's a custom table cell, and if I feed the view a generic table cell it all works.
    I have this structure - is there anything missing?
    ||||View.h
    @class CellClass;
    @interface ViewControllerClass : UIViewController <UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource> {
    CellClass *cellClass;
    (other stuff)
    @property (nonatomic, retain) CellClass *cellClass;
    (other stuff)
    @end
    ||||View.m
    #import "View.h"
    #import "Cell.h"
    @implementation ViewControllerClass
    @synthesize cellClass;
    (other stuff)
    @end
    ||||Cell.h
    @interface CellClass : UITableViewCell {
    (some stuff)
    @end
    ||||Cell.m
    #import "Cell.h"

  • Weird Anomaly. Any Ideas?

    I was watching some you tube videos last night and a couple of times when i touched the headphone socket (I was listening with headphones on) the phone stopped playing the you tube audio and started playing a random track from my ipod selection.
    It happened about 3 times, so I know I wasn't imagining it.

    macjock,
    If your headphones made contact in such a way as to create a contact in the same way as the button on the headset, then it could pause or start music. Two clicks tells it to skip to the next song, and if you have the iPod portion set to shuffle the next song would be random.
    Hope this helps,

  • I have duplicated apps; safari, calculator, dvd player, dictionary & ical post Lion update. One of the duplicates in each case no longer works and won't let me remove them either with a message that states the os still needs them. Any ideas chaps? cheers

     

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

  • Icons are missing from bookmarks after updating to 9.0.1 in MAC OSX. Any ideas?

    Prior to the upgrade, my list of bookmarks has an icom to the left which made it easier to select the bookmark I was interested in. These are now missing and only the title of the bookmark shows.
    I run Firefax under MAC OS X Lion

    FWIW: I just looked over a friend's daughter's 2010 MacBook Pro unibody (2.66ghz) that was slow as molasses in Winter. She has been using it for her work at U.C. Berkeley for three months. After running Mac Janitor I repaired permissions with Disk Utility and there were thousands of files that needed to be re-set. After that it ran the way it should.
    I was pretty surprised because when I repair permissions on my Mac Pro tower practically nothing gets changed.

  • OSX 10.8.2 won't allow Mail (v6.2) to open.  Any ideas what to do?

    I just ran the latest update to 10.8.2 and now Mail won't open.  I get an error message saying that the version 6.2 I have is not compatible with the 10.8.2 OSX.
    Any ideas what to do...I depend on Mail for work!

    Straight away.
    Last night I tried to restore the system from the Time Machine to just before the problem and then update the OS again.  This worked fine, although it took a long time to optimize the Mailboxes and even then quite a lot of previously read email was showing as unread.
    Anyway, since I've now solved the problem myself with no loss of data I think I should close this thread.
    Thank you for your interest...

  • New TV episode won't apper in library. Any ideas?

    I've just downloaded a new TV episode (the colbert report to be specific) on Season Pass. It downloaded fine and from the iTunes media folder will play perfectly, but for some reason i can not get it to appear in my iTunes library. Just a day or so ago i downloaded a different TV series and that's had no issues, and i can copy music to my library (from my computer, from cds and from itunes) without any problems. This is really frustrating me.
    Any ideas?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Really Really Weird Problem

    Hi All,
    I have the following query:
    SELECT *
    FROM
    fin_payment,
    s1_name_and_address s1_name_and_address_b,
    s1_currency
    WHERE (fin_payment.internal_flag = 'N' or fin_payment.internal_flag is null )
    AND fin_payment.bank_id = s1_name_and_address_b.name_and_address_id
    AND fin_payment.currency_code = s1_currency.currency_code
    AND (('P' = 'C' and fin_payment.check_reference is not null )
    OR
    ('P' = 'P' and fin_payment.advice_nbr is not null )
    AND fin_payment.financial_source = 'A/P'
    AND fin_payment.payment_type = 'L'
    AND ('P' is null or 'P' = 'A' );
    It shouldn't return any rows because of that condition which is bold: ('P' is null or 'P' = 'A' ), because it's always false. The problem is if I remove that condition and paste it in the middle of where cluse like this:
    SELECT
    NULL,
    NULL,
    fin_payment.bank_id,
    s1_name_and_address_b.full_name,
    fin_payment.check_reference,
    fin_payment.payment_date,
    fin_payment.bank_amount,
    fin_payment.currency_code,
    s1_currency.description,
    fin_payment.payment_nbr,
    fin_payment.payment_type,
    fin_payment.invoice_nbr,
    fin_payment.ap_check_reference_nbr ,
    fin_payment.reconciliation_status ,
    fin_payment.replacement_payment_nbr ,
    fin_payment.advice_nbr
    FROM
    fin_payment,
    s1_name_and_address s1_name_and_address_b,
    s1_currency
    WHERE (fin_payment.internal_flag = 'N' or fin_payment.internal_flag is null )
    AND fin_payment.bank_id = s1_name_and_address_b.name_and_address_id
    AND fin_payment.currency_code = s1_currency.currency_code
    AND (('P' = 'C' and fin_payment.check_reference is not null )
    OR
    ('P' = 'P' and fin_payment.advice_nbr is not null )
    AND ('P' is null or 'P' = 'A' )
    AND fin_payment.financial_source = 'A/P'
    AND fin_payment.payment_type = 'L'
    it will return some rows which is wrong. I don't know how it generate those rows. Because if you remove that condition, I mean ('P' is null or 'P' = 'A' ), it doesn't retrieve any rows.
    And another thing is, it just happen in Oracle 9.0.1 not in other versions like 8.0.5, 8.1.5,8.1.6...
    any help is greatly appreciated,
    Arash

    No Justin. For making the query easier I wrote that condition (P is null or ....) like that. and s1_name_and_address is an alias.
    I thought the data or tabel is corrupted, so I created a new table as
    "create table test select * from fin_payment"
    no for the same query, I get two diference result on table Test & fin_payment !?
    I really don't have any idea !

    Try to reset the iPod by  pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches after installing new software or apps.

  • Really weird bug, About This Computer/Storage

    Hello,
    Today when I was looking trough About This Computer I found this weird bug:
    What I mean is that my drives are hidden abit under the other text to the right, I can't read what type my SSD is either.
    This is how it looks on my friends computer:
    Is it really supposed to look like that for me? I can't resize the window either.

    It should say "of type Sata"
    Do you have any idea why the pictures of the harddrives isnt centered with the text as it is on my friends?
