Seems to capture but then won't quit after ESC pressed?

We have new XRAID with Apple FC interface & running on Mac G5 and 10.3.9. We use FinalCutPro 4.5 and it all seems to capture but then won't quit after ESC pressed. The pinwheel spins and the Mac is unaccessible then after maybe 3 hours it finishes and everythings ok. Way too much time for a 15 minute capture! Aja Kona2 capture card and they have had me adjust the settings in the xraid admin but no change. Capture of a few seconds are usually finalized instantly. Any Clues?

Same problem if you don't choose capture now ?? I've always though capture now to the raid was a BIG NO NO.

  • ITunes 6.0.1.3 install seems to finish, but then dies

    Alrighty. So I'm a tech by trade in Austin, Texas. I've seen plenty of iTunes installs, and itunes install problems, but this is the first to stump me. My little brother's computer was running itunes 4.7 just fine. However, since version 5 i have been having this issue.
    When I use the installer for itunes, it gets to the very end where it says registering product, publishing,etc...and then the installer flat disappears. The iTunes icon at the same time disappears from the desktop, and all files in the /program files/itunes/ folder also vanish.
    Odd.
    So i did an extensive removal of all things itunes and quicktime from this computer. Files, registry, and everything. I got it all out of there. The in used windows update to install microsoft installer 3.1. After I restart I then downloaded and attempted to install itunes again.
    Same thing...every single time.
    I'm quite lost as to what the issue is here. Looking at the application logs in the control panel I can see two messages generated by this installer. The first reports a successful installation. But then the one right after it says itunes installation failed.
    Anybody? This is insane.

    hi Brandon!
    hmmm.
    b you're
    not going insane, but i've always thought that people with a "vanishing installation" have a perfect right to feel like they might be ... from the way you describe your symptoms, i think that this document would be a good place to start:

  • I can't read acsm files on my e-reader after transferring them from the pc with ADE. it seems to work, but then when I try to open the files on the e-reader it says "open failure". what's wrong?

    I can't read acsm files on my e-reader after transferring them from the pc with ADE. it seems to work, but then when I try to open the files on the e-reader it says "open failure". what's wrong?

    The acsm file is not the book, it is a ticket to get the book.  I sometimes get library books online, here is what I do.
    1. Start ADE on the computer
    2. Go to library website and find the book I want to download.
    3. Click on the download link
    4. In windows 7 a box opens asking whether I want to open( or run) or save the acsm file
    5. Click open/run and ADE downloads the book into the "Library"
    6. Transfer the book (epub file) to the reader.

  • Problems capturing video in QT Pro - quits after 16 mins

    OK, here are the details of the system - MBP, 1.5GB RAM, 10.4.10 and QuickTime Pro - an older, but working Sony DVMC-DA1 (analog to Firewire convertor). Oh, and there is about 30GB of free hard disk space.
    What I am trying to do - capture video from a VCR.
    I have rebooted the system, flushed all caches, created a new account and still have this issue.
    It will capture between 16-17 of DV video and then it stops recording. I can see and edit the media I have captured, but it won't capture anymore then 16-17 minutes before stopping. I have two tapes that I would like to grab the video off of. One is 35 minutes and the other is a little over an hour. This is driving me crazy!
    Has anyone else seen this problem? Or have any suggestions?
    Thanks!!!

    This seems to be another Apple screw up. They released an update before testing it properly. I have seen several posting in many forums stating the same problem you are experiencing. The only work around I have found to work thus far is to capture the audio and video seperately. As taking twice the time to capture, not just in seperate files. Pain in the arse but it works for me. I am thinking that it is a FCP 4.5 and QT 7.1.5 issue. But of course Apple won't say anything about it. They leave it to the rest of us to point out thier mistakes as usual.

  • IMovie '08 not working for me, then won't quit

    Hi,
    I have a sony dcr-sr90 hard disk camcorder. I had it before imovie '08 came out and I was pleased to see that this new version was compatible with mpeg2 formats. Trouble is, while I have got imovie to import some videos, it's a timely and rather hit and miss affair.
    I've tried it again just recently and it's bugging the **** out of me. Today, I just upgraded to version 7.1 and dowloaded the ilife support software too. I'm not sure if I had that or not. I was hoping this might fix my problems. But, it appears not. I connect the camera, open imovie which then says camera detected - scanning for movie clips. This process takes ages and I only have about an hours worth of clips on the camera. Finally, I get 'generating thumbnails'. Again this takes ages and sometimes actually bombs out. I then have to quit imovie, but it won't let me and I have to do a hard shutdown. On the odd occasion that it does does complete generating thumbnails, I click the movies I want to import and off it goes. I left it going overnight the other day cos it takes so long. In the morning I saw that it froze after about 3 clips!! What is going on? Why is it so slow and erratic? It's nigh on impossible to use at the moment.
    Anyone have any thoughts on what might be wrong?
    Cheers,
    Lee

    You may be able to reduce start up time if when you close im7, you don't leave the events window with iphoto videos selected. Additionally some of your ihoto video could be causing an issue, you could try removing it to a folder on your desktop to see if it helps at all.

  • Mail stops receiving mail and then won't quit

    Since I upgraded to Leopard I have been force quitting Mail. It seems to be associated with .Mac. I open up the activities window and there is always some e-mail stuck receiving in there. When this happens, no more mail is received and the application won't quit. I notice that it also happens if I go to sleep or I switch users.
    I have disabled all rules.
    I have emptied all mailboxes.
    I turned off growl notifications.
    I have enough space on .Mac.
    I have extended the check mail time.
    Honestly, it is pretty annoying. Anyone having this issue?

    do you have any other plugin or input manager or transfer of data from Mail to something else running with mail by any chance?
    If yes, then you may want to disable and try again.
    If no, then have you tried deleting and re-creating your .mac account and see if you still have the same issue?
    If that does not solve it, have you tried logging in with a different user account onto your computer, and then setting up your .mac account in Mail and trying to send. If you get the same issues then it may hint at app/system related issues, if you send/receive without an issue then it might be a user specific issue.
    If user specific issue I would repair permissions - applications>utilities>disk utility and repair permissions.
    hope this helps

  • G560 PXE error; OneKey Recovery seems to work, but then I get BSOD upon boot

    I've got a 3-year old G560 and a few days ago, I ran into a PXE error out of the blue. I didn't really change anything about the computer's setup, and it may have been caused by commuting the laptop.
    I already went through the whole F2 setup regimen of disabling network boot, changing over to compatible mode, trying every combination of boot order, etc.
    When I was in compatibility mode, I was able to get the OneKey Recovery to work. There's no DVD involved, seems like it's stuck in that partition. I never set a restore point, but I didn't mind a factory reset. So I did the OneKey factory reset and it took about 15 minutes and it seemed to be okay, but then when I try to start the laptop, it will show the Windows logo, freeze there for a few seconds and then it flashes the blue screen of death for a split second (impossible to capture the error codes).
    If I try it in safe mode, it shows the files that are being loaded, and it BSODs right after classpnp.sys
    Now, I guess my main question is if OneKey will appear to work and yet maybe the HDD (hard drive) does not work. Could it be a matter of just replacing the hard drive? I did pull out the hard drive and re-mount it. Also the motherboard and re-mounted it. Is the OneKey function separate from the hard drive?
    The laptop is so old that I wouldn't want to invest much money in its repair (warranty is past expiration date), but it's also been my daily computer, so I wouldn't mind if it was just a case of replacing a hard drive. With these problems, would it just be possible to make Ubuntu into my primary operating system by using an install disc?

    hi stophammertime,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    It looks like you have some bad sectors on the HDD that's why the OKR didn't work or for some reason, OKR worked but the bad sectors corrupted the OS installation files. To verify this, you will need to run diagnostics on the HDD (try ultimatebootcd as it has diagnostic tools for ever brand of HDD's)
    Also, the OneKey Recovery runs on a hidden partition on the HDD (usually the last few sectors of the drive). It's possible to trigger the OneKey Recovery if the partition structure isn't damage but if the target drive has bad sectors (i.e. Drive C:\), it may fail to image the drive or corrupt the installation files.
    If verified that you have bad sectors on the HDD, you will need to replace the HDD and from here, you can:
    1. Use a recovery disc to restore the default OS (this is only psosible if you have created one using this method)
    2. If you can still read the COA product key at the bottom, you can burn an ISO copy on this website and use it to clean install Windows into your PC (if you get issues activating Windows, try to activate by phone).
    3. Scratch Windows and use Ubuntu as you're primary OS.
    Hope thish elps

  • HT5056 The update downloads but then won't install - Error

    I have a Mac OSX 10.6 notebook; when I try to install the Java update - it downloads just fine but then just says there is an error and won't install. I have not had any problems before with updates.

    Do you think I should pay to get help from Support to get this update installed?
    Ummm...no. Download and install the updates manually: http://support.apple.com/downloads/

  • Browser will open once and open only one page. It closes but then won't open again. How do i fix it?

    In the last 24 hours my browser will open only once and go to only one site i choose. after that , i can go to another site but links won't open or anything else. After i close the browser , so i can restart it, it tells me firefox is already open. Problem is it never shuts down in the background. I have to use the task manager to shut it off so i can open it again. Funny thing is that internet explorer, works fine but i don't want to use it. I even tried reinstalling firefox but it did not work. I had to post this on a different computer as well.

  • Final cut captures but iMovie won't

    Using Sony A-D converter box, firewire, NTSC DV. Final cut recognizes this and captures, but iMovie HD will not.

    Thanks Sue
    Unfortunately following the steps in that article don't help. I also tried the same on my Macbook- iMovie only gives a choice to use built-in iSight. iMovie doesn't recognize the Sony DVMC-DA1 converter on either computer. Yet Final Cut initializes and sees video right away if you select capture, so the DV-Firewire signal must be getting in there. Any ideas?

  • Why do apps say that you need iPod touch 3rd generation but then won't sync to my iPod touch 3rd generation?

    I just bought three apps that listed iPod touch 3rd generation under the "Requirements", but then when I went to sync those apps to my iPod touch 3rd generation, it said my iOS was out of date for them.

    You obviously need to update your ios version on your ipod.

  • Printer won't quit after printing

    After I print anything from my eMac to the HP laser printer it is hooked up to, the printer icon stays in the dock with the little arrow under it showing that it is open. It won't quit automatically; I have to manually go in and quit the printer. I tried looking in the dock and print preferences, but couldn't figure out how to get the printer to quit automatically once it is done. Any help would be appreciated, since this is a new computer in my school lab (although the machine itself isn't new), and the kids love to click on anything they see, so the less they see, the better.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi
    I see.
    Have you by chance set the Docked icon to Keep In Dock, found by clicking and holding down on the docked icon?
    Furthermore you say the printer icon stays open showing a green arrow, so is that both the printer utility and the printer both showing in the dock?
    i think normally, there should only be the printer utility, a green open printer symbol doesn't ring a bell, so to speak.

  • My iphone 5s shows up in image capture, but it won't show any pictures to import.

    I recently just started having an issue trying to import photos and videos from my iPhone 5s to my 2009 macbook pro. (version 10.6.8). It will connect to my phone, but it will say there are 0 photos to import. I've check and I am updated on both, and I've followed the other steps listed at iOS: Unable to import photos to computer.
    Note: I actually think this started after updating my iphone to the latest software.

    From other post, I find this: "I figured out the fix for the Mac users having this problem. I connected my iPhone to my iMac and started iTunes. A dialogue came up in iTunes, I OK'd that and then OK'd the usual "Do you trust this Mac" that comes up on my iPhone. Suddenly Image Capture launched itself and there were all my photos, ready to be downloaded." Or you can try iPhone transfer software to transfer photos from iPhone to Mac.

  • Safari freezes and then won't quit

    For a few days now I would go into safari and after looking at maybe 5 web pages I normally look at it would stop loading all together. Then when I would try to quit safari it would quit, but it would still show up in the tool bar as still running, and when I try to force quit it would quit and then show up again as still running, but I cna't load up any web pages. I go to Internet Explorer and it would run fine, and then start doing the same thing. Any tips or ideas. I'm running on OS X 10.3.9 and using safari 1.3.1

    I have a similar problem. When using my browser (either Netscape or Safari), it will occasionally lose the ability to load a URL (Netscapes says "Resolving.....", Safari says "Contacting...."). Sometimes I can quit the browser, sometimes I can't. If I can quit it, it will not reload (the dock icon just bounces). I can use already opened applications but cannot open new ones. The "Restart" and "Shut Down" options under the Apple menu do not work. I have to do a "hard shut down" (push and hold the power button) and then power up again.
    When I installed OS X 10.4, I upgraded. I ran Tech Tool prior to upgrading. I do not use Norton.

  • I was editing photos and it was getting stuck or frozen and working really slow, so I attempting to close aperture and reopen it but it won't quit aperture and now it won't open up to my photos either.  Any ideas?

    I was editing photos and it was getting stuck or frozen and working very slowly.  I attempted to restart the computer but it would not allow me to quit aperture.  Now aperture appears in my toolbar but will not open up so I can work on any photos.  Any ideas?

    Did you try opening from the Applications folder?
