Same message every time I finish a run

Since passing the 250 mile mark on my new nano after every run I get a message congratulating me on another 250 miles. I updated to the firmware released a few days ago and it still happens
Does anyone else have this happening?

Yeah, sorry about that. I suppose it was sort of "baby with the bathwater" kind of solution. Here is a link to the Nike site where folks have talked about it;
http://forums.nike.com/thread.jspa?messageID=345580&#345580
They mention a soft reset which I believe is when you hold down the volume down and sleep/wake buttons until you see the apple logo. This wont cost you your personal best info, etc.

  • Importing mailboxes (upgrade to 10.4) hangs on same message every time

    I have upgraded system to 10.4.10. Opening mail for first time, I am invited to import mailboxes. Every time, it hangs on message "14,589 of 15,233". It must be a corrupt message. When I was in 10.3, it hung my mail program every time I opened my "sent" mailbox and started indexing, hanging when it reached the same message.
    I narrowed down what messages it probably was, but unfortunately, when I opened the sent folder to delete, it always hung, and I always had to force quit, hence not saving my delete actions.
    perhaps I can at least import the other mailboxes if I move the sent folder and complete the import process without it. anyone know where to find the old mailbox files? they do not appear in library/mail, probably because I have not succeeded in importing them from 10.3.
    and any way to open these files outside of mail and remove a message without opening mail?
    thanks for any help

    If you already had problems when running Mac OS X 10.3, you should have fixed them before upgrading. The conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken even for mailboxes that can be accessed without a hitch in Mac OS X 10.3. In your case, upgrading could only make things worse...
    Here’s an example of the most common variant of this problem and how to proceed in those cases:
    Just upgraded, Most of my old Inbox is gone!
    Your problem, however, is different in that you don’t even get past an incomplete conversion. If Mail stalls during the conversion process, you may try to identify the mailboxes that Mail is choking on, quit Mail, move those mailboxes out of ~/Library/Mail/ (e.g. to the Destkop), and trash any Envelope Index-named files you may see in ~/Library/Mail/, so that Mail re-creates the index and tries to import the remaining mailboxes again, then manually import the problematic mailboxes as Other.
    <hr>
    Alternatively, you may want to set up Mail from scratch and manually import your mail back afterwards. This would allow you to use Mail normally while solving the problem of importing the old mail as you see fit:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/. Move (not copy) the entire Mail folder out of there, to the Desktop.
    3. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop.
    4. Open Mail and set it up again from scratch. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and check that everything works fine.
    5. You’ll have to re-configure all your settings in Mail > Preferences. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
    6. Do File > Import Mailboxes and follow the instructions to import your mail from the old Mail folder that’s now on the Desktop. Import the Mailboxes folder first, then each of the POP-username@mailserver account folders, if any.
    There are two ways to import Mail 1.x mailboxes into Mail 2.x. The obvious one is importing them as Mail for Mac OS X. But Mail 1.x stored mail in standard mbox format plus some additional support files, and this allows Mail 1.x mailboxes to also be imported as Other, i.e. as generic mailboxes in standard mbox format.
    Importing as Mail for Mac OS X produces the best results when it works, because it takes into consideration all the files in the mailboxes, not just the mbox files where the messages are stored, and hence, allows information such as status flags to be preserved. Importing as Other, on the other hand, may work in cases where importing as Mail for Mac OS X doesn’t, because it looks at the mbox files only, ignoring the support files which is what Mail 2.x usually chokes on, but precisely because of that, information such as status flags is lost and previously deleted messages may reappear.
    Hence, you may try importing as much as you can as Mail for Mac OS X, then import the problematic mailboxes as Other.
    Note that what Mail asks for when importing depends on the format chosen. Mail always asks for the folder that contains the “things” to be imported. If Mail for Mac OS X is chosen as the data format, the “things” to be imported are the .mbox folders, so you must choose the folder that contains them, not the .mbox folders themselves. On the other hand, if Other is chosen as the data format, the “things” to be imported are the mbox files, so you must choose the .mbox folders that contain them in that case.
    Note also that some of the mailboxes now on the Desktop may have already been partially converted to the new .emlx format during the previous (failed) attempt to convert them in place. If you tell Mail 2.x to import as Mail for Mac OS X a mailbox that already has a Messages folder, Mail will simply ignore the Mail 1.x files present there. If the mailbox was successfully converted to the new format, that’s fine, but if the conversion was incomplete, that’s not what you want.
    As a result of doing all the above, some messages may be duplicated. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may find useful.
    If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • Same message every time I open iPhoto - "use iPhoto when you connect..."

    Every time I open iPhoto 6 (using a MacBook Pro) I am asked: "Do you want to use iPhoto when you connect your digital camera?" I respond "yes," only to be presented with the same question the next time I open the program. Any thoughts on why that might be and how I can stop it from asking (and remember that I want to use it with my camera)?
    MacBook Pro (Dual 2.0Ghz)   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Thanks for the suggestion. I gave that a try, but no luck. Turns out, though, my main volume was corrupted--most likely related to running the public beta of Parallels Workstation (great software, but there's a reason they tell you not to run betas on production computers ). I repaired my drive using Disk Utility and that seems to have done the trick.

  • I keep getting a message to up-date my FireFox software; but when I follow the prompts it doesn't work, and I continue to get the same message EVERY time I sign in. What's up with that?

    When I start my computer (Windows) I find a message window on my Home Page (AOL) that tells me somethinglike "It is recommended that you up-date your software to Firefox 4.0 (?)". When I click on the button to up-date, it tells me that it is "connecting to server". Then I watch as the green "up-dating" bars flit across the screen...and flit across the screen...and flit across the screen...and it just keeps going.
    Then I click on a button that says "Hide", assuming that the up-date is continuing to do its magic while I am busy elsewhere. This gives me a minimized button that is labelled "Software Update". When I click on that to maximize it again, I find that the "connecting to update server" just keeps going...and going...and going............. Finally I just cancel the whole process.......until next time I go online and the same window tells me to update my software.

  • When trying to save page in Yahoo! Bookmarks, I receive blue screen with message:A problem occured while trying to save bookmark. Please try again later. I get the same message every time.

    When I click on Yahoo Bookmark Icon & click on Save this page,
    I get the normal screen Save To My Bookmarks, etc. I fill out as
    normally & click save. That is when I receive blue screen with above message. Frustrating because it lets me go through the process but then will not save. Is this a cookie or privacy issue??

    At the top of yahoo bookmarks there is a message:
    To Yahoo! Bookmarks users:
    Yahoo! Bookmarks is transitioning and will be exclusively available via Yahoo! Toolbar. During this transition, you will be able to access your bookmarks in read-only mode.We expect the transition to be fully complete by October 20, 2011, after which you will have access to your bookmarks with the ability to add/ edit/ delete bookmarks.
    Please download Yahoo! Toolbar for a full bookmarks service. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience during this period.
    But the toolbar dosn't work either, even after it is updated, so we may just have to wait.
    Hope this helps :)

  • Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot?  I get a gray "curtain" over the start up screen saying I need to restart my computer but it won't restart.  I just keep getting the same message every time.

    Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot?  I get a gray "curtain" over the light gray start up screen with a message that I need to restart my computer and to hold the power button until it powers off and then press the power button again to restart.  It just does this over and over again and won't restart.

    Yeah, as necronym stated, it is a hardware issue and more than likely a RAM problem. Disconnect everything from the computer except keyboard and mouse and try again. If it still happens try removing one and/or swapping your RAM sticks over. Keep trying until you have eliminated all possible combinations. Just put a mark on one RAM stick so you know what have tried. If it still fails to boot properly you should probably replace your RAM, but that is no guarantee of success.

    Every time I try to run iTunes I get an error message sayinh: An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime incorrectly. What does this mean

    Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    (The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
    Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
    If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

  • HT1645 whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing.  I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

    whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing.  I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

    Welcome to the forums.
    Looks like that error message does refer to encoding (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1645) but a problem could be that your video has to be reloaded into iDVD if you started the encoding process and then switched settings.  You could start a new iDVD project, or try deleting encoded assets.
    Let's start from the beginning -- what length of video are you trying to fit on the DVD? (this will indicate what encoding options you have).  Double layer DVDs can be finicky and are used for video more than 2 hrs long.
    Use good quality media -- Verbatim is often recommended around here, and I've used Sony DVD-R with good results.

  • I get the "Fast Browser Plugin not loaded" message every time i run  safari and I can't find an MTWB folder anywhere on my hard drive?

    I get the "Fast Browser Plugin not loaded" message every time I run  Safari and I can't find an MTWB folder anywhere on my hard drive?  This doesn't seem to be causing a problem, but is a puzzle?

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Error Message Every Time I Close the Prefs Box

    Since I upgraded to iTunes 5 (now on 5.0.1) I get an error message every time I close the Preferences box: "An error occurred while updating the default player for audio file types. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
    I am the administrator of my computer; in fact, mine is the only user account so I have to be the administrator.
    I get this error message even though I am not trying to change the audio file associations. Weird.
    Anyone else run into this problem?
    Any suggestions?
    thanks
    Paul D.

    FWIW, I get the same error message. My audio has gotten incredibly choppy too (after upgrading to 5.x), whenever I have another process running on XP that's doing much of anything, regardless of the encoding bit rate of the song being played! Ugh.

  • I have downloaded the new iTunes 10.7 on my computer with windows vista on it. Now every time I try to run a video it shuts off iTunes. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I have downloaded the new iTunes 10.7 on my computer with windows vista on it. Now every time I try to run a video it shuts off iTunes. Is anyone else having this problem? I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program twice. Is there a fix? Is it possible I am missing part of the program? 

    I'd start with the following user tip:

  • Warning message every time I open an app

    I ended a Creative Cloud subscription and then opened another one because I got a free year from one of my employers.  Since the new subscription, I've been getting messages every time I open an application saying that Adobe is having trouble verifying my membership.  It also give the amount of days remaining for me to verify it before eberything stops working.  This is happening on both my desktop and my laptop.  The only thing that I can think to do is uninstall everything and then reinstall so that Adobe is reinstalling everything on the new subscription. I wanted to know if this was the case before trying it because this would be a bit of a pain.  I don't mind doing it if that's the answer to the problem.  Whatever I have to do, I also need to know if it's something I have to do on both machines running the software.  Thanks!
