Safari doesn't work after recent Java update

Hi, I have a MBP with OSX 10.8.5.. Yesterday I installed the recent recommenden Java update. Since then Safari won't open a window and it freezes. When I hit the icon in the dock, it jumps as if it would start, but then nothing.
Any ideas? Thanxxx

Coldfusion 64 bit windows installer stops working after recent microsoft update

Coldfusion 64 bit windows installation stops working after recent microsoft updates and how I worked around it.
My question is at the end.
Trying to deploy coldfusion 9 enterprise 64 bit trial version onto a Windows 2003 64 bit datacenter OS with all OS updates from MS (as of 4-7-2011).
Steps taken (remember, this is all 64 bit):
1. Installed the base OS which was slipstreamed with SP2.
2. Checked w/ microsoft and installed 63 OS updates.
3. Launch the CF9 trial exe.
4. As soon as the first screen finishes (the one that looks like it is extracting files) then the second screen pops up (the one that simply says CF Adobe Coldfusion 9) and the progress bar quickly moves 95% to the right and the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.
5. After a moment of incredulous silence (and retrying/rebooting, etc), I started to google it. I found nothing. However, I did find a post (thanks dspent!) that was helpful in that it told how he was able to get at a log file of sorts, by pre-extracting the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file and launching the adobe_cf.exe by hand. (Dspent's install snafu was different than mine, but his post was very valuable and got me started in the right direction.)
6. Got a copy of rarunzipper and extracted the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file.
7. From the windows directory created by step 6, I launched adobe_cf.exe.
8. Same thing (the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.).
9. I examine the hs_err_pidxxxx.log file (where the xxxx is a number).
10. I see inside that file an ominous message: "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime" then "Problematic frame ntdll.dll" and then "The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code".
11. OK, so now I am thinking ntdll.dll !! Native code !! It is like Java is telling me that for some reason it can't dance with the OS.
12. On a hunch, I decided to test a CF install again on a server with just the base install of W3K3 64 SP2 (ie: skipping step 2 above this time).
13. Bingo! That install works.
14. Therefore, one of the 63 patches I had downloaded from MS had triggered a problem with the CF installer.
15. Back on the first server (the one with the MS security patches installed and the one that CF won't install on). In the CF file adobe_cf.lax (one of the files extracted in step 6) there is a line that mentions where the install gets it's java. Find that file, and check java version installer is using. It is using 1.6.0_14-b08.
16. Off to the Java website, and there is a newer version of java (1.6.0_24-b07). Downloaded and installed it.
17. Modify a line in adobe_cf.lax :
   before
     lax.nl.current.vm=resource\\jre\\bin\\java.exe
   after
     lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\program files\\java\\jre6\\bin\\java.exe
(that assumes that you let step 16 install to the default location)
Save the file.
18. Run the install ... ** IT WORKS ** !
Obviously, the built in java provided with the CF installer is no longer compatible with some change introduced by some recent MS update on the W2K3 64b SP2 platform.
And now the interesting part. Although I forced the installer to used the new java, it did not incorporate it into the cf build (ie: in jvm.config, you still see c:/coldfusion9/runtime/jre AND the version of java.exe that is in that directory is the original version, not the newer version I forced the installer to use).
On the surface, CF seems to run OK, but I have not done any application testing yet.
And finally my
** QUESTION **
Would it be appropriate to simply point the java.home var to the new java directory? I see that the directory structures and files are not exactly the same (close though) so I certainly don't want to break things by doing this, but instinct tells me that if the installer broke using the older version, then something else is gonna break down the road if I don't use the new version. On the other hand, the differences in the directories and files is enough that it makes me very nervous, with my limitied java skill set, to make this decision.
Thanks in advance!!
Byron

Hi Byron,
Wow great post no doubt much of the information will be useful for those on Win03 SP2 +. Have to say not come across similar problem on Win08 r2 SP1 +.
So to your question. Adobe security bulletin (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89440.html) recommends running CF8 and CF9 with JVM 1.6.0_24. The bulletin does not say how to do that. I take you installed JDK and not just JRE 1.6.0_24? Post install of JDK follow these steps:
Stop CF - SERVICES.msc stop "ColdFusion 9 Application Server".
Take a copy of CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config - so you got a backup.
Edit CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config find line "java.home=" and comment it out eg:
#java.home=C:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre
Add new line like so and save jvm.config:
java.home=C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_24/jre
Note there the slashes and the location of the JRE (runtime) - you need to point to the one in JDK because the other JRE in C:\Program Files\Java\jre6 will be missing a DLL.
Start CF via SERVICES.msc.
HTH, Carl.

Safari doesn't work after new Installation of Lion

Hello,
I installed a new SSD into my MBP mid 2009 and put the HDD into the optibay instead of the Superdrive, after that I installed OSX Lion onto the SSD and used the Migration Assisstent to migrate my old User Folder from the HDD with the newly installed OSX Lion. After the migration, everything went well, except of the following:
-Safari doesn't work, no website can be loaded, as soon as I run Safari, there is a process running named "Webprocess" which uses 95% of the CPU and makes the MBP heating.
-VLC Media Player does not work as well
Any idea anyone?
thx
Mohammad

Another problem is:
When I start the Dropbox Application, it uses nearly 90% of the CPU as well, so the mac heats up, in a way that it is not possible to use the dropbox application...
(The Icon of the VLC Media Player only jumps up and down in the dock, and nothing else happens)

Bluetooth doesn't work after E90 firmware update!

Nokia staff - help needed!
Bluetooth has stopped working after E90 firmware update.
The following on-screen message is shown: "Unable to perform Bluetooth operation!"
P.S. Reinstalling firmware via Nokia software update doesn't help at all. If connectivity problem still can be solved with USB cable, the worst tning is that I can't use my phone's BT handsfree when driving.

Flash player not working after recent software update

I have a MAC OSX 10.5.8, after the recent software update my flash player no longer works.
I have read that there is a problem with security for the version of flash that I was using and this is the reason it was disabled. However, I have tried to download the most recent version from the Adobe website, but nothing happens and a message says I already have flash installed on my computer.
I have a version of flash in my HD>>Library>>Internet plug-ins, and there is also one in HD>>Library>>Internet plug-ins (Disabled) which I have tried to move but it only lets you copy it and it seems unable to be moved back to HD>>Library>>Plug-ins
I have also tried to download the "No Script" addon for Firefox so that I can at least have flash working in Firefox, but that doesn't seem to be downloading either.
Please could somebody help me. I cannot now watch videos, listen to my favourite radio stations or even upload pics to ebay to create ebay listings. This problem ruining my internet enjoyment and I just hope that it can be fixed again. How dare Apple just do this without any warning or giving any info on how to easily fix this problem once flash has been disabled.
I am not a techie so maybe there is an easy fix, but I have spent hours trying a lot of different things but nothing seems to be working.

Please, nobody waste any time replying to this issue as the problem appears to be fixed now. I rarely restart my laptop as I usually just put it to sleep, however, I restarted it and the problem looks to have gone away. I may have fixed it with some of the things I tried, but the laptop may just have needed restarting - I'm not sure.
But as long as the problem is resolved, I'm happy. :-)))
Thanks anyway!

Safari doesn't work after Yosemite install

I've recently installed Yosemite in my iMac*. Everything works as supposed except for Safari. Every time the computer wakes from sleep Safari does NOT work at all. It doesn't load any site. The only solution so far is to restart the iMac.
any clues?
* 27-inch, Late 2009, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Adobe Reader doesn't work after windows 7 update

Hello,
My Adobe Reader X was working fine, until one night where Windows 7 automatically updated, and after that Adobe Reader doesn't work anymore. It doesn't respond AT ALL when I click on it, and I cannot view PDF files anymore.
I uninstalled it, and re-installed it --- still doesn't work. I tried downloading version 9, but still it doesn't work.
I also tried to do system restore, but somehow it won't let me --- it says it failed to do so.
When I try to open PDF files in IE 10, it says "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." and an error code of 103:103.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks!

You can try running cleaner on your machine

and then again install latest Reader from

Audio doesn't work after a BIOS update + strange beeps during bootup

Hi,
I just bought a MSI motherboard, 915P Neo 2 platinum.
1.
Everytime I boot up the system, I hear a set of beeps...it sounds like 1 long, 2 short beeps...so I followed the instructions and re-seated the memory and it still does beeping.
2.
MY MAJOR PROBLEM RIGHT NOW IS
I did a BIOS update using MSI LIVE UPDATE 3 and after that the sound doesn't work. I check for "unknown PCI devices" under WinXP but there are none. I re-installed the azalia driver again from the originial driver cdrom and still no luck.
I hope someone can tell me what is happening here and help me to fix it
thanks a lot in advance
regards,
Kittu

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I also did some updates along with BIOS.
I am listing them below.
I installed the following updates which the "Live update 3" reported as applicated to my system
MS-7028 v1.50
Intel INF Update v6.2.1.1001
VIA SATA&IDE RAID Drivers v5.1.2600.410
After this, I noticed the sound was not working so I re-installed the azalia bus driver and still the sound didn't work. So, I checked the bios and changed the value of the audio-mode from AC97 to Azalia. Then, again re-installed the azalia driver but the sound still doesn't work.
How do I re-install the CMedia audio driver ?
How do I clear the CMOS ?
thanks,
Kittu

JFileChooser stop working after last Java update

I actually program using JDK1.4.2.
My programs worked all ok till last Java update. Now, when I try to create an instance of JFileChooser, programs loop infinitely, causing CPU overall.
Simple program like this:
import javax.swing.*;
public class JFC2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                System.out.println("New instance");
                JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
                System.out.println("This string never appears");
}The string "This string never appears", like its content, never appears.
I found an old bug report about this bug, but it refers to applications lauched by a shortcut. This case is different: the application doesn't work anyway.
Is there any solution? Any information about that?
Thanks a lot.

3G maps doesn't work after 4.2 updates

I have googled this, called Apple, and contacted an Apple iPhone Engineer personally. Everyone at Apple insists this is not a known issue, but judging by how many posts there are about it, it can't be unknown... After all, I just told them, right?
Anyway, I've tried everything out there from turning off Location Services (with Restart) to Reseting Network (opening Maps outside and selecting the gps symbol). The map freezes, crashes, and bottom line - does not work anymore. It used to work over a year and a half ago.

Thanks for a quick reply, Christian.
1. I use the same browser (on my lap top) when testing the app. with version 4.1 vs. 4.2.1. The app. for version 4.2.1 doesn’t redirect after successful authentication.
2. The server admin checked the log on server and he doesn’t see any indication that either Apache or the browser has any effect on the page that it is going to.
......... - [11/Jan/2013:08:33:24 -0600] "GET /pls/tst/f?p=128:LOGIN:9391925558569 HTTP/1.1" 200 12110
......... - [11/Jan/2013:08:37:12 -0600] "GET /pls/tst/f?p=128:1:5517088011070::::: HTTP/1.1" 302 -

I came across other discussions in the forums (and articles) and it seemed that there was some behavior in the login/logout processing has changed with the apex 4.1.1 patch set. We’re currently on apex 4.1.0, so I guess that explains why the same application runs fine in 4.1.0 but not in 4.2.1.
I changed
--owa_util.redirect_url('f?p=' || :APP_ID || ':2:' || :APP_SESSION || '::NO::');
to
:FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL := 'f?p='||:APP_ID||':'|| '2'||':'||v('SESSION')||'::NO:::';
Now, the application is redirect to correct page. We have to modify other applications in order to upgrade to 4.2.1.

HT204407 Find my Friends doesn't work after IOS 7 update

We use find my friends for our entire family to monitor kids locations, etc. Since updating to IOS 7, one of the phones only shows it's location sporadically - otherwise says location not available.
Have verified location services are turned on, nothing is blocked, etc.
This phone was updated to IOS 7 over wifi (vs. through iTunes) - one other phone had some minor (unrelated) issues after updating over wifi that were resolved by doing a factory reset & updating from iTunes - wondering if that could be cause of the issue here as well. Anyone else encountering issues with FMF?

Apple did update their help section on the app. I found this trying to figure out why my Find Friends wasn't working after the update to iOS 7.
"Find My Friends is turned on in Background App Refresh (in Settings > General in iOS 7). When Background App Refresh is turned off, Find My Friends can’t use Location Services in the background. If Background App Refresh is turned on, but you quit Find My Friends via the multitasking interface, location updates won’t be sent to your friends until you open the app again."
Hopefully Apple will update this as it was not this way prior to iOS 7. Killing the app didn't prevent your location from updating in iOS 6 as I constantly killed the apps running in the background and never had this problem till the update. Hope this helps! Just make sure to not kill the app as of now and to tell everyone you follow not to kill their app and locations will continue to refresh. Otherwise it won't update locations till the app is opened again.
