Server App Won't Scroll

It appears that OS X Server app is bugged. I go in to edit a user to add a them to a group, but I can't access the add button beneath the group section as it is hidden under the action bar. The page also dosn't scroll. Resizing the window doesn't help either -- the group section seems to be anchored to that position at the bottom of the window.
Any suggestions?

servermgrd is what the Server App communicates with to read/adjust settings.
You could uninstall/reinstall the server app.. that may take care of your issue or is at least worth a try.
Not much of a downside to this, your data and settings are not kept in the app.
When you trash it, the services will shut down. When you replace it (download from app store) it will re-use the same settings and data.

of course, make sure your local DNS setup properly forward and reverse.
sudo changeip -checkhostname
should return positive (matching) results, not a mismatch.
I would also verify your volume with disk utility.

  • Server App won't connect to my MacMini Server on my network via Wi-Fi, what am I doing wrong?

    I've been able to connect to my server thru screen sharing with no problems, but when I try to use the Server App via my 13" MacBook Pro via Wi-Fi it just keeps spinning and never connects?  Any ideas?

  • Can't login to Server app after hardware and hostname change

    I used Carbon Copy Cloner to completely clone a Mac mini Server onto another Mac mini Server. (The idea being that I can install and configure additional software just once and then easily set up identical servers by copying all hard drive contents.) This seemed to work great – the second Mac mini runs fine, including logins, networking etc.
    To avoid conflicts between the two servers, I changed the computer name in System Preferences/Sharing and ran:
    sudo scutil --set HostName someothername
    sudo changeip oldip newip
    The problem is that the Server app won't let me log in on the second Mac mini. It lists "This Mac" in the "Choose a Mac" dialog, but when I enter the correct username and password, login is refused (the login dialog is "shaken"). But the same login works for the operating system and SSH, and the account was definitely "allowed to administer this server". On the original Mac mini I cloned from, I can login with this account just fine.
    I even added the user account to the "Open Directory Administrators" group using ldapmodify on the command line, but that didn't help.
    Is it possible that there's something in the user directory that's bound to the hardware (maybe the Ethernet MAC address) or the hostname?
    Do you have any idea how I could fix this? I'm grateful for any help…

    this hasn't worked for me.
    When i follow the additional steps using terminal, the second command brings back the same outcome - 'David is not in the sudoers file. this incident will be reported'.
    I've been having trouble with login on for a week but didn't realise this was the problem. I've reset passwords, reinstalled OSX (twice) and now, bizarrely, i can log onto the mac mini as the administrator, but once logged in, the 'administrator' password doesnt work for anything. I can run Software Update because it comes up with a message:
    "Software Update wants to make changes. Type an administrator name and password to allow this".
    I then put in my password but it shakes and tells me its wrong.
    Can anyone advise any other solution? I'm kind of stuck - because the system doesn't recognise my admin password for updates, i cant update anything. And also because my itunes library was set up by a newwer version (I reinstalled OSX believing it would fix it reverting it back to a previous version) i can't listen to any music.

  • Creative Cloud Desktop app won't install error 207; Adobe server?

    Is there a problem with some of Adobe.com servers? My employer just purchased a CC subscription for my work Mac, and the CC Desktop App won't install. I've restarted my Mac, quit all Adobe products, redownloaded the DMG file (creativecloudinstaller.dmg), and checked to make sure my firewall is off. But I still get an error message #207. My DNS servers are set to the same ones that other Macs in my group are set to, and they have CC on their Macs.
    I don't know if it's related, but I can't load "adobe.com" in my browser, either. All other webpages are fine, including (obviously) this forum.
    I am using OS 10.8.5, connected via Ethernet, and my browser is Chrome.

    Thank you for your help, Ned. I also called Adobe help via phone, and he confirmed that my company's server needed to whitelist several Adobe sites. The company had revised their servers not long ago, and evidently did not transfer their old whitelists (which is why my coworkers had previously been able to access Creative Cloud). The phone support person emailed me a helpful list that I could forward to our company's tech support center—but the link you supplied in your response was also perfectly relevant.

    I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
    I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
    You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

  • My screen won't scroll, and apps won't open when touched, but will with double touch.  When an icon is touched a black outline surrounds it.  Any suggestions?

    My iPhone 4s suddenly stopped opening apps when icons were touched.  Touching an icon puts a black box around it and it will only open with a double touch, then app will not scroll at all.  Also, cannot switch sideways l between home screens. Tried resetting, resyncing, no help.

    Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for your answer! I wasn't able to fix my phone for days and my cell phone company's store didn't even know how to fix it.  Thank you so much!  BTW your answer made my phone work again!!!

  • Apps won't update after 8.0.2 update

    After experiencing some of the issues reported elsewhere regarding the 8.0.2 update for iPad 2, I was finally able to get it to update via iTunes.  However, now my apps won't update on the iPad 2.  They start to update and then freeze at the start. 

    I too am having some of these problems as well.
    The App Store has now become "unavailable" and two other apps are unable to communicate with their respective networks (in South Korea). Safari has become unresponsive ("Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding").  The Dolphin browser has also just become unresponsive after having worked for several days!
    The UI has become periodically sluggish in scrolling and zooming.
    I have no music or video on this iPad either and it is not broken.  I updated from 7 to 8.1, thinking any bugs would be squashed but this is clearly not the case.
    Would resetting this device help or would that simply make matters worse? This situation is really bad.  If I can not use my iPad for work, I will be forced to buy and use a Samsung notebook tablet, which I never wanted but I need something that is reliable and this is not.

  • Gnome 2.28 - separate X server, apps lose focus?

    This is quite hard to quantify, but since updating to gnome 2.28 (with the appropriate GTK updates, of course), my apps seem to be losing focus randomly.
    This is easiest to notice in Nautilus because I tend to use the buttons (back, up level) most often. When I first start nautilus in the second X server, all the buttons show as clickable (box around them when I mouse-over) and work, but once I start browsing by clicking on folders in the main pane, a mouse-over of the buttons doesn't show them clickable, and clicking on the buttons does nothing. This can be fixed (sometimes) by alt-tab and going back to the same window, or (all the time) by clicking the drop-down arrow for history (back). When this happens, scrolling the mouse won't scroll the folder in the pane, though I can use the keyboard to page up and page down.
    Similarly, in my Eclipse IDE clicking some buttons will disable all buttons, which will still be accessible through their keyboard shortcuts but not by clicking on them (no response, as if an invisible app was on a layer above them).
    Have no idea where to begin searching for information about this, no error logs (not that I'd expect them), just weird behaviour. Does this happen for anyone else?

    http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=82894 also mentions it.
    Am surprised this affects nautilus, though...

    Try to force quit the app
    Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.

  • Can't see list of backups of TimeMachine service in Server.app

  • Can Onone softs DSLR server app be installed on a flash drive

    Onone soft has an app to control your camera remotely using your iPod or Ipad. The sotware is in two apps: one app is installed on ios device and the other app is a server app that is installed on the Imac. Your mobil device connects to the camera over a local WiFi. When I take my camera to another location I would need to install the server app on the clients computer in order to remotely trigger my camera. It would be much easier to plug a flash drive in the clients machine with the server app on the drive. It would also allow me to have the Windows version of the server app as well as the Mac version on flash drives.

    You need to ask the develper, if all you want to do is transport the app to another computer then you need to ask the developer if this is infringing on any of their licensing which I'm almost certain it is. If you want to try and run it from the flash drive this probably won't work.  You need a portable Mac such as a MBP or MBA.
