SAP shuts down when executing certain transactions

Hi,
When using the SAP system, I realized that when using some transactions (ex: WE41), the system shuts down automatically. This happens every time for the same transactions.
Any idea why ?
Thanks a lot

Hello Stephanie
1 too old sapgui version
2 too old sapgui patch level
3 physical memory problem
4 software memory leak
5 other hardware problems...
Please look at the users sapworkdir. Are there any *err.trc files?
For this kind of problems it is better to open an "OSS" message.
best regards, Sven

SAP shuts down when loggin on with many add-ons if logged on by main screen

We have 3 custom designed add-ons at the site, where 2 of them are set to start automatically and 1 mandatory.
It was all ok with 2 add-ons , however with the 3rd the issues started to happen. Listed below is the issue and the way to replicate.
1.     When logging in through the main screen the add-ons throws errors ( apparently due to not staring up properly such as runtime references lost etc ). The errors are different each time. Ultimately SAP shuts down without letting us do any further action.
2.     However, if I login through the choose company screen ( click the choose company button on the main screen ) then I dont have any issues, all add-ons start that are set to automatic and mandatory.
3.     there are few exceptions :
a.     When the manager password is manager and SAP lets you log on with the blank user id, the main screen log-on is successful with the add-ons starting without issues. ( however if I type user id manager and password manager then still the issue happens )
b.     When the user is NOT a super user, and when logging in through the main screen NO issues happen.
4.     Of course I dont have any problems with add-ons set to manual, and when started manually, but some add-ons are necessary to be automatic and some need to be mandatory.
I have tried to delay the add-on connection to the UI with one add-on, however that has no effect.
my client is concerned with having to logon through the choose company screen.
any help, workarounds are appreciated.
regards,
Indika.

Hi Indika,
Thanks for the detailled description of the issue!
Unfortunately I didn't encounter the issue so far - and I wouldn't know better workarounds from the top of my head...
I guess you are talking about issues in conjunction with the latest version / patch?
...from pracctical experience I know that there's no issue with version 2004...
...but this issue should anyway be fixed by SAP Support.
Did you report it yet?
Could you tell me the message number?
Thanks in advance - and sorry for not being able to help better,
Frank

N8: SMS client shuts down when typing "certain" l...

Some users in the italian forum are experiencing shuts down of he SMS "client "when typing not better identified letters . Furthermore, after this, the keyboard sometimes starts typing wrong letters ( ex. press "A" and get "E").
Some similar experience and what's important any explanation?

I've experienced this bug few times myself. Usually restart solves the problem. Annoying though.

Machine shuts down when a certain USB port is used...................help!

Dell Optiplex 760 (Win Vista Business) shuts down as soon as the second from the top USB port is plugged into on the back, bottom two (2) work fine and both front do as well. What could be causing this?

Is it always the same device being connected to that USB port causing the shutdown, or is it any USB device?
Physically examine the port on the rear of PC to see if it's bent or otherwise damaged. And if it's only one device causing the crashes, examine it's USB cable or connector too.

Reader X shuts down when trying to open more than one pdf, or when clicking certain categories in settings

Until a few weeks ago I have never had a problem opening more than one pdf at a time. Now Reader just shuts down when I try to do so. The same thing happens when I click on the yellow highlighted categories in settings. All the other categories open fine.
Appreciate the help of anyone who can help me solve this.

I guess you didn't know, but yes you can close more than one app at a time. You can close up to 3 apps at a time in the new IOS7 on the iPhone. Try opening at least 3 apps and then double click the main button to see what apps are opened. Then swipe to the left to see the three of them on your screen. Your not gonna see the ones on the side entirely but you can still put all three fingers on them, then simply swipe them up and it closes them up.
The thing is, when you have let say 10 apps open, and you start using this trick, some of them will stay open meaning you swiped them up to close them down but the bottom icon stays there. When you come back to your main IOS desktop and then go back to close the programs that you have opened, you can see that those apps are still opened. There is only like 2 or three out of all the 10 you had opened that stayed open, but none the less it's a bug in the system I presume.
You also asked about the icon at the bottom. When you are seeing what apps are opened, there is always a small icon at the bottom and on top you have a representation of what you were working on, and that is the part you swipe up. But often time the bottom icon will stay opened after swiping 2 or 3 of the apps to close them.

My Satellite laptop (A305) shuts down when run on the AC charger/adapter

The problem is that my Toshiba _A300 series laptop (A305) shuts down when you try to run it on the AC charger/adapter_. You can boot it with the power cord plugged in and it will get to Windows Desktop and maybe a few minutes more at most before shutting off.
It will boot and _run from battery without problem_, but if you plug in the AC while it is up and running on battery the machine will normally click off instantly and reboot to the message "Windows was not shut down correctly."
The _AC adapter works fine_ reading a steady 19.19 to 19.20 volts with a voltmeter. It also _charges the battery fine when the computer is off_. I have two Toshiba brand batteries and they both work fine.
One interesting thing is that the _computer runs fine on AC when in safe mode_.
I _did a reformat/factory restore_ of Vista to assure it was not software and drivers, and still got the same problem before any external devices had been plugged in.
It has the latest BIOS and I tried resetting it to default values in case anything had gotten changed. It made no difference.
This is _not a heating issue_ because _while it is run on battery I can watch long videos_ without it shutting off. I ran compressed air through the vents just to make sure, but it makes no difference in behavior. Usually with an overheating shut-off, the computer cannot be started until it has cooled some, but these shutdowns are accompanied by an instant reboot.
I have seen on some threads that this type of problem one can work around by disabling one of the processors in Device Manager, but I don't think that is much of a lasting solution or good for the computer.
Has anyone seen this problem before and have you come with a full diagnosis of the problem and a real solution?

I have Satellite A300 and until now everything works OK.
I would like to know what happen when you remove the battery and use notebook with power supply only. Does notebook shuts down again.
If not let OS run and put the battery.
Is the battery recognized properly? Does notebook switch off again?
To be honest I cannot imagine this issue has something with software or background processes. Recovery image you got with your notebook is designed for this certain notebook mode. Recovery image is tested and I dont think preinstalled OS has anything to do with this.
Full diagnosis?
And how to do this? You know very well that diagnosis can be done with diagnostic tools only and such tools have services only. I hope you will find answers but Im 99% sure there is nothing you can do about that. Maybe you should contact service, explain the situation and ask for help.

IMac shuts down when using Safari 2.0.4

My iMac shuts down when I visit certain websites such as Pogo or video sites. Took it to the Apple store and of course the problem wouldn't replicate there. They kept it to check out the scripts and logs to see if they could find a problem - without success; although they did suggest my house is haunted. Brought it home and it quit again.
We thought perhaps we were getting interference from other wireless devices and unplugged our cordless phone which worked for a day. The computer always turns back on so its more of an annoyance than a real problem, but I'm baffled.
It also happened once when I was downloading from the iTunes store, but is most prevalent with Safari.
We have wireless internet connected via ethernet to an Airport Express.
Any ideas? Thanks.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Hi Barry -
Yes I do live near a ghost town (kinda) - Virginia City, NV. And I did tell any unwanted visitors to leave.
Actually, in the last year, they have replaced the Super drive, power supply, inverter and logic board. The only reason I'm not thinking power issues is that it only happens when I'm in Safari or iTunes. I would use Firefox except I've got java issues with that. I can (and do) use the machine for other things all day long without problems. I can use Safari all day long as long as I'm not playing on Pogo or certain video sites. Maybe Pogo is haunted?
It also doesn't happen on my husband's iMac on the other side of the house. Is there something that could cause enough interference to actually make the machine shut down? Oh, the antennae for the satellite TV and internet are on the roof directly above me, if that would have anything to do with it.
Thanks for your help.

Macbook only shuts down when battery is flat and date and time revert to 2008

Hey Guys
My Macbook only shuts down when the battery goes flat.
When I switch it back on everything seems to be fine though the date and time are incorrect. Seems to go to default date which is 2008.
Other things seem to affect my browser, Facebook won't login properly and certain websites seem to propmt that the website can't be trusted, which is strange because gmail is one of them and should be fine.
Appreciate all the help from you cyber friendly folks!

To answer your questions in sequence:
1) You can't, really: the symptoms your Mac is exhibiting point at a loose or next-to-dead back-up battery. Only way to find out is to test it, and to do that, you must open your machine, locate the battery and test it with a battery tester (see here for more info on how to open your Mac; make sure to select the right model)
2) It's actually the opposite: when you must use your Mac on the battery, well, then, do it, but if you're sitting at your desk, or, like me, on your sofa, with your MBP on your lap, simply keep it plugged into the main.
An additional measure to preserve your battery, that applies less to the recent Unibody design, but is helpful for ealier adopters of the MacBook Pro: don't leave your machine plugged in when it's turned off; it prevents a slow, natural depletion of the battery, and will play against you in the long run.
Last but not least: battery calibration is required once a month for older MacBook Pro models (non-Unibody, basically). If your machine belongs to that era kids the age of Justin B. don't even imagine ever existed, check here.

MacBook shuts down when not connected to power supply

Hey everyone, I'm making this topic for an issue that has gotten me edgy lately.
My MacBook (not new) has a habit on shutting down on me instantly for some reason when the MacBook is not plugged into charge. Here is the strange thing though, if I unplug the charger plug and set it still on my desk, I have more of a chance of the laptop not failing on me, but when I carry the MacBook around, it has a 90% (guestimate) chance of shutting down on me.
Even after having the laptop plugged in for 12 hours, the laptop just goes into suspend mode.
I have to wait a couple of seconds before I can turn it back on (by pressing the power button, not any key).
Also, when I shut down more programs at certain times when not plugged in, and having the screen brightness low, the Mac does not shut down so fast.
Any advice?!
Thanks

Could be you battery. Mine shuts down when showing 40% charge left and I have to plug it into the power supply to fix it. I found out it was the battery by downloading coconut battery. It's an application that allows you to check the status of your battery (Link at bottom). I suggest you get that and when your macbook shuts down again, plug it into the mains, start it up and run coconut battery. If it shows your nearly out of battery power then that's your problem.
I was showing 40% left when it shut down. Did the above and I had no power left. It happens when the battery is old about 250-400 loadcycles
Hope this helps.

Imovie shuts down when sharing to browser

Please help me, i've been cutting film for months with imo09 like steven spielberg, now all of a sudden like thousands of others, imovie shuts down when i add titles or share it to the media browser.
I will try these suggestion from the apple community help for the titles:
rename projeckt
press apple and S to save before clicking add titles
erase pref files
log on as a new user
But what can i do if it doesnt share to media browser. It looks like the film is being sent, takes several minutes, then at the last second shuts down.
At this moment i take the baseball bat in my hand and have the urge to swing like Derek Jeter at my mac.
please help me!

Hi Sue,
recently. I also got the same problem abt iMovie HD and while searching the discussions, I have seen your suggestion for similar problem.. I followed it and now it is working very well.
Thank You..
I have another problem in my mac. There is a white vertical line showing up on the desktop for a while.. and recently another white line parallel to it also created and now I have 4 vertical lines on desktop which spoils the beauty of the mac. Do you know how to get rid of them? Mine is iMac, 10.4.9, 1.83GHz, Intel core Duo, 1GB memory.
Your suggestion will be greatly appreciated. My e-mail ID is [email protected]
Thank You

Welcome to discussions, viewfinder:)
Be certain to follow Bengt's good advice:
Quit iMovie.
Locate a file named com.apple.iMovie.plist and get
rid of it. iMovie will create a new one the next
time it runs. Empty the trash and run a permissions
repair from the Disk Utility folder.
The files are located here:
-->/Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iM
vie.plist
Also, please answer regarding the amount of free
space you have left on the Mac.

N900 shuts down when opening slider

Does anyone else have this problem? I believe I've figured out that it happens when I put a certain battery in it. I have three, total, because my previous phone was a 5800, so I had ordered an extra one. So, now I have three that I can use in my N900.
I think it is an official Nokia battery because it looks exactly like the others...
Anyway, my phone shuts down when I open the slider, using a fully-charged battery. The lights dim as if it is a power failure and it does not reboot like the others having the reboot problem...
Sorry for rambling on!
Any ideas? Thanks
Recent phones: N91, N95-4, 5800xm, N900, E7, & now the beautiful N9

Hi guys
I have a very similar problem and have been unable to enjoy my phone!
I got a new N900 yesterday, for the 2nd time, but the device is still manifesting the same symptoms:
- shuts itself down regularly, whether in use or not;
- sliding the keyboard back in causes it to shut down;
- it shut down when it was taken off the charger;
- I left it on the charger overnight and it stayed up all night (>10hrs);
- even when it is on (for a short while) the screen stays inactive and blank permanently, and the device shuts down when I attempt to slide it open to check that it is indeed on
- attempt to start it up again are not always responded to, and when it does it starts to boot up and then dies again
- it barely stays up long enough to use it for any purpose
- sometimes the charger responds to the power supply and sometimes it doesn't
This was exactly what was happening with the new one I recieved from and sent back to Nokia within days. They asked me to return it without the battery and charger and claimed to have tested the new one before sending it back to me. I have put in the battery and used the charger from the previous new device.
I have tried to analyse the problem and I am beginning to think that the issue might be related to either a dodgy battery or charger. What do you think?
I have asked Nokia to send me a replacement charger and batter. In the meantime, have you any suggestions I could try?
Thanks.

How to disable auto shut down when doing line-in recordi

I am using Zen V Plus 6gb to do li've line-in mic recording.
I experience creation of a few tacks when the recording ends.
When I asked Creative Tech, they said it is auto shut down when the voice recorded falls below audible level. Can I disable this?

If I got you right, it interrupts the recording when a period of seconds no signal more loud than a certain level is
on the line-in source? Right? Normally you could aplify anything, even white noise, but I don't get the point.
Are there any songs that have longer interruptions than 5 seconds according to this cd norm?

Itunes shuts down when clicking anything

My iTunes shuts down when I click anything on the screen other than the music. If I click anything on the sidebar (Store, Playlists, Library, etc.) or the album artwork it shuts down. I have tried pulling all the iTunes preferences out of the library and restarting the computer. This does not fix the problem. This has been going on for a few months, but I have been downloading the newest versions of iTunes and it continues to happen.

Hey chaimoy,
It seems like you may be experiencing an unexpected quit from iTunes when importing a file into the iTunes library. I have an article for you that addresses this circumstance, and it can be found below:
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues - Apple Support

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Why does Macbook Pro have gray "curtain"and msg to shut down when playing video online?

Hi,
I have a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard v 10.6.8 and have put on all the security updates.
I bought this machine just days after the newest MBP's were released with Lion because I wanted to stay with Snow Leopard
From the very beginning I would have occasional "gray screens" with a message that I'd encounterd a problem and needed to shut down. It always occured while I was watching a streaming video online (Flash?) but it didn't always happen. I updated my Flash plugin and that seemed to help. I use both Safari and FireFox and both are now updated to the latest versions.
I had also noticed via iCleanMemory that my memory availability was very low .....I always have many tabs open in my browsers and have backup software that backs up to online storage running and when I watched a video, it dropped to almost 0 and everything ran slow. I had 4 GB Ram.
So, I ordered new ram and put that in and now have 8 GB. Machine runs fast. Love it....except it keeps giving me that veil of gray and the message to shut down. It happens several times a day now and while usually in conjunction with watching a video clip, it's not always the case. But I have lots of available memory. That wasn't the issue.
I found an Apple Support paper relative to needing a video update on some mid 2010 MBP's and downloaded it. It won't install and says it won't run on my system so that didn't help.
I'm at my wits' end trying to keep this thing running. Everytime I have to shut it down it means a minimum of 8 min...sometimes more.....before it will restart. If I try to restart sooner than that, it begins to boot and then just has lines and lines of numbers and code running across it....and often continuous beeping sounds and I have to hold the button down to shut it off again. If I wait long enough, it does boot back up and sometimes runs fine as long as I'm not watching video clips, a streaming tv show or clicking on a lot of links in web pages.
I don't believe it has shut down when I was doing anything that wasn't web related....i.e. on a browser. And, when I was running with only 4 gb ram, it rarely shut down, just ran very, very slowly. Now with 8 gb ram it is speedy but doesn't seem to want to keep working!
Anyone have any ideas what I should try next?
Thanks
Paula

Hi Allan,
Thanks for your reply.
I have been closing iCleanMemory but the shut down (kernel panic) was still happening. Not sure how to go about uninstalling it as it's one that runs at start-up and dragging it to the trash might not get rid of it completely. I"ll find it's web site and see if they have any info.
Haven't checked your web link yet (it's late and gotta get to bed) but will do so tomorrow.
I also run Backblaze and DropBox that begin at startup and are constantly updating in the background, iStatMenus and Sharpshooter.
The kernel panics were happening....tho much less frequently.....before i put iClean Memory on. If I remember right, I installed it just because I had those periodic shut downs and wondered if it was a lack of memory. Because I then saw that memory was very low all the time, I decided I must need to put more memory in. And that seems to have made the issue worse while also making the machine work faster for the time it is running.
Now, I've been working on here for a couple of hours and had no problem at all......but I haven't asked it to play any kind of video. Before I quit for the night, I'll try to watch the last one I tried that caused it to shut down and see if it does it again.
I do appreciate your help as I have just enough knowledge about these things to be dangerous.

Palm Desktop shuts down when trying to view calendar by month

I'm using a Palm TX with the latest edition of Desktop installed (I think that's 6.2). Everything is normal except, suddenly, I cannot view my calendar in monthly view. Daily, weekly and yearly all work fine. Desktop shuts down when trying to view in monthly view. I did a system restart, a Desktop reinstallation, a download of the latest version and installation of that version and, finally, uninstallment of the existing Desktop, download of the newest version and installation of that version. Nothing seems to enable me to view the calendar in monthly view. This is a spontaneous event. I've been running Desktop on a Vista Ultimate system since February without incident. I have no idea about how to solve this.
Thanks
Post relates to: Palm TX

Well, here's where we are now. It's a good thing that I have desktop on my office computer because when I tried a Hotsynch with my home desktop, Hotsynch wiped out all the data on my handheld and then hung up both the handheld and desktop in the middle of the Hotsynch. I'm going to overwrite the entire handheld with the office desktop file. As for the home setup, I'm thinking the only thing I can do now is uninstall Palm and wipe out the entire directory of files. Am I correct about this? Do I need to do a clean uninstall?
