Server Monitor doesn't see any sensors

Hey,
I inherited this Intel XServe and hot days like this make you take a closer look at the sensor data... all of which are invisible to SM.
SM doesn't see power, temperature, and blowers. Their respective tabs show one entry under Location: None.
I'm not using LOM but connecting locally via the loopback address.
OSX Server 10.6.4, Server Monitor 1.8(5)
Using 3rd party software like Temperature Monitor does read the temp sensor data fine.

The way that Apple recommends for the Xserve LOM reset and reboot is to unplug the box. The LOM is an embedded computer riding atop the network controller, and always powered on when the chassis has power.
For completeness, there's an ipmitool cold restart option for the bmc that might work, but (given the lack of documentation; Apple's recommended approach toward resets; this is a production environment; that haven't tried it) I wouldn't follow that approach.
I'd also look at a network-enabled remote power switch for this environment. Cheap, and saves you the trip to the DC or the call to the DC staff.

Server Monitor can't see server

Machine and OS specs:
2 x 2GHz Dual Core Intel Xserve using 1 x ethernet port
OS X 10.4.10
I have just installed a new Xserve set up with mirrored RAID drives which is working perfecty apart from the Server Monitor will not connect just giving the message 'waiting for response'. I have tried all the various admin and root passwords and even tried to connect from my older G4 Xserve with the LOM password, but get the same result. All other administration software works fine.
I have searched various forums and advice sites, but the suggestions I've found have not worked. I read that the com.apple.hwmond.plist can be edited to <false/> from <default/>, but when I open the file in a text editor I get this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

- already set to <false/>!
When I try to connect to the server via it's Terminal by typing ssh -l adminuser (my IP address) I get the message: 'The authenticity of host '(my IP address) (my IP address) can't be established'. This leads me to think something else is up. I can ping it OK.
I have tried pretty much everything I can think of including manually setting IP addresses etc, but I would really appreciate any help or advice with this one.
Thanks.

Hi
On the XServe launch Server Monitor, select Add Server and in the IP Address field key in 127.0.0.1 or localhost. In the Name and Password fields key in the default System Administrator account details. Click on Save password in keychain and select a suitable Update every settiing. If you launch WGM you will see the System Administrator account already listed in the local NetInfo node (UID 501). Use the short name as listed in WGM.
Although I have not had the chance to do this yet, but enabling Lights Out Management (LOM) opens port 623 which Server Monitor can use. This may allow for remotely using Server Monitor to monitor the XServe.
Hope this helps – Tony

ITunes doesn't see any of my iCal Calendars i

I'm trying to sync my iCal to my iPod Touch, but not having any luck. I had it syncing via "Exchange Account" through NuevaSync but there are some issues there...decided to go back to sync via the cable. I am now unable to see any of my calendars in iTunes. The list of calendars is blank.
What I've tried:
Resetting sync history
Removing isync pref folders
Backing up calendars via export and deleting all calendars, re-adding calendars via import to iCal
Confirmed URLs for published and subscribed calendars
Unpublished all calendars and got rid of subscribed calendars
Re-subscribed and re-published calendars
So far--nothing's working. Any suggestions?
THANKS!
Corey

Go to the iPhone discussion and search for calendar synching. I've been there and solved my iCal problems. Look for info on deleting a "cache" folder as well, I know I removed one but can't remember which one.
I think you can only sync personal calendars.
Also try creating another user on your mac, log-out as yourself and log-in as the new and then try opening iTunes to see if it recognizes your calendars.

Desktop Manager Doesn't See Any Address Book Contacts or Groups

Monitor doesn't sleep any more

I have a 24" Soyo monitor attached to my Mini....I've had it for at least 6 months now and it's worked fine.
I leave my Mini on 24/7 and have the screensaver set to kick in at 10 minutes and the monitor to sleep at 15 minutes. I don't have the Mini set to sleep because when I did I had a problem with some USB devices not being recognized when it woke up.
As expected, at 10 minutes the screensaver would kick in, and 5 minutes later my monitor would blank out (go to sleep mode - power LED turns from blue to red). However, for the last couple of weeks I notice when I wake up in the morning, the screensaver is still showing on the screen....after 8 hours the monitor still hasn't gone to sleep.
I've restarted...set the sleep time to different values...nothing seems to make the monitor go to sleep any more. Any ideas on getting the expected behavior back?

Try repairing your disk by booting up from the Mc OS X install disk and go to Utilities-->Disk Utility. Select your HD and click repair disk.

ICal doesn't 'see' any appts. on a delegated account on an Exchange Server

We have an Exchange 2007 (SP1) Server in an Active Directory environment. We have several OSX 10.6.2 macs using iCal and Apple Mail to interface with the Exchange service. The email and calendars work just fine with the accounts that I have defined for the users. I am trying to connect to another Exchange user's calendar that my AD account has been given access to. I then went into the iCal account preferences, selected my account and then clicked on the delegation tab. I click the plus key and type in that user whose calendar I want to see in iCal; the name is listed and I add the user. The user is now listed in the Delegation tab and is set to show, has Read & Write access to Calendars and No Access to Tasks. In the iCal main screen I see a Delegates section, the user name and the Calendar under the user name. However, none of the items in that calendar show up in iCal. More strangely, in iCal I select that user's calendar, double click on a day as if to create a new calendar entry and iCal hangs for a few moments and appears to do nothing. If you look at the calendar in Outlook 2007 on a Windows machine you will see that a new untitled event has been created, yet it still will not show in iCal.
Very perplexing.
Am I missing a strange detail in iCal? Is there a setting somewhere on the Exchange server that is not set correctly, or do we have a bug of some sort here?

Follow up:
Strange.... I fiddled with the settings, always returning back to the original settings as described above (not that there are very many options) and now it is working. (play twilight zone theme song here) On another computer, I went to set up several delegated calendars in the same fashion (using all the same versions of the software). In the Delegation tab in the iCal account preferences, *the Calendar permissions displayed are inconsistent.* I added four delegated calendars, the first three are displayed as having read/write access, the fourth has no access even though the user has been given the same privs on all of the calendars. I deleted the fourth from the delegation list and now the third one I added has no access to the calendar. Me thinks there is a bug in there somewhere.

New user created doesn't see any data in reports

Hello Everyone,
I am using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.1. I have a problem when i created a new user in the system via Shared Services. The reports are Reporting and Analysis reports.
I duplicated a current user in the system and applied the same groups and provisions. However, the new user cannot view any data in the reports. The current user however is able to do so. I am quite literally puzzled.
The existing user has been given the "Planner" provision. Further, the existing user has dimension security applied as well. This works fine with the existing user, as when i log in as the existing user, the data is available only to the groups and dimensions he has been assigned to. But when I apply the same groups and provisions to the newly created user, I get absolutely no data though i can see the report.
But if I apply the Essbase Cluster: Administrator provision to the new user, all the data is viewable in the reports irrespective of the dimension security.
I would appreciate some help urgently to get this matter resolved.
Regards

Hi John,
Though the problem was solved last time, it returned. Users aren't able to view any web analysis reports.
I dropped all users from SS and deleted all the security filters from EAS. (made a backup of course). Then I created all the users once again with relevant access to groups and the provision of "Planner" in the relevant planning application.
Then in planning (Administration > Manage Security Filters > UserName > Create) created the filter for the user.
When I did that, the default filter for the user was as follows.
Access - None
Member - @IDES("Accounts"),@IDES("Scenarios"),@IDES("Versions"),@IDES("ABCGroup")
I want the user to have access to the Cost Center (Branch) L103. So I added the following.
Access - Read
Member - "Final","Draft 1","L103","Budget","Actual","Final Forecast",@IDES("Input Assumptions"),@IDES("Balance Sheet"), @IDES("Profit and Loss Account"),@IDES("Financials Ratio"),@IDES("Report Assumptions")
This used to work, but for somewhat reason, it doesn't. The story is the same for all users. When i log in as a user and try to view a report, i get the "Database Login" - No data available error.
Pls help.

Pulse audio doesn't see any card

I've changed my desktop to gnome 3 from kde, previously having xfce installed.
While having very hard issues to make sound works in KDE, i decided to switch from alsa to oss
and that had made a trick.
After switching to gnome shell, pulse devchooser and console tools says - there is no card detected,
altough skype-oss is working well, I can hear it sounds. Firefox and flash are silent.
Do I have to reenable Alsa (I dont want cause skype doesn't work without oss on my desktop)?
Can you please help make my sound working on gnome3?

There are two wires that attach to the AirPort Extreme Card; one for Wi-Fi and the other for Bluetooth. Be sure to double-check both for a solid connection AND to make sure that you don't accidentally have the wires crossed.

Windows System Image Manager doesn't see any ISO image

I am training for the 70-680 and am trying to create an answer file in Windows System Image Manager. When I click "File" and try to select an ISO image, none of my ISO files appear although I can see the rest of the files in the share.
What am I missing?
I need a vacation.

You can see in the GUI for WSIM that you can only open .clg (catalog) or .wim (windows image) when opening a Windows image.

IMovie doesn't see any iPhoto videos

Hi,
I can't seem to get iMovie to recognize any videos that are in my iPhoto library. This used to work easily. Any suggestions?
How do I access all of my iPhone videos that get imported into iPhoto for editing in iMovie?

Hi maxmaxie,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are not able to import videos from iPhoto to iMovie, I would first suggest using the steps in the following article.
iMovie may not recognize some videos in iPhoto or Aperture - Apple Support

IMovie '09 doesn't see any audio files or still photos.

I just migrated my G5 iMac to a new iMac. I now have iMovie HD '06 on the new iMac and it works just fine. The problem is iMovie '09 and iPhoto. Neither application can see the audio files to add background music, sound effects, etc. Also, iMovie can not see iPhoto photos. iMovie can see the iPhoto videos. I can add movie clips to iMovie, so that seems to work.

You could have a bad install. There's a thread/threads around here talking about the viewer being all white due to a bad install of the program or a corrupt user. I've also heard it manifest with a black screen instead of white.
Quickest thing to check. Create a new user account. Log in there, and open Motion. If Motion opens fine, then you have a problem with your normal user account.

By the way, I can not modify the method allocation for the data collection methods (stay gray when I click on the modify button).
Can anyone can tell ma how the collection data are done ?

I was a little bit impatient.
Juste need to wait that some people actualy use the transaction so that the system can record the datas. :-s

Itunes doesn't see any of my three Ipods

So after years of hassle-free ITunes, I'm pulling my hair out. Installed Snow Leopard last week, very shortly thereafter Itunes starting hanging alot. Won't recognize my three ipods (nano's and a 60Gb, older versions) but oddly does recognize my Itouch.
I have trashed Itunes and reinstalled, no luck. Have tried all the various wires/ports, but I know which wires worked where in the paste and so am confident that is not the problem. Only change has been to upgrade to Snow Leopard this last week.
Some kind soul, please help?

hmmm...I've made Itunes mad.
So I tried the first (disk repair). Messages as follow:

Okay, something was wrong but did get repaired
Then I ran Disk Repair again and only got:
Permissions repair complete
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
That's nothing to worry about.
That didn't fix the problem (same as before, Itunes hung when I plugged in an IPOD).
So I tried the second suggestion, i.e. changing the read only to read and write. That made Itunes mad. Now whenever I open Itunes, it hangs immediately. I changed back the permissioning, but Itunes still hangs whenever it opens. So, I tried (a) recreating Itunes libary and playlists (from apple boards) - no luck, Itunes hangs as soon as Itunes reopened and (b) trashing Itunes 8.2.1.6 and installing 9.0.2 - no luck, still hangs as soon as opened. Very weird!!
So I have Time Machine doing a back-up of my drives, never tried using it. It is time to try?
I'm not sure making a backup of a troubled system will be useful. You should have TM backups of your pre-problem system in order to be of help.
Or some other thoughts? Maybe trashing all of Itunes per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 and then trying to reinstall? I am just concerned I lose all my playlists and such.
I'm in the office right now and working with an XP machine. But you can export your playlist(s) to a safe location and re-import them later. Highlight the playlist you'd like to save and then check for the export option. I expect it will be under the file menu. Also backup (maybe to a USB stick) the folders such as +album artwork+, +previous iTunes libraries+ etc.
+Maybe trashing all of Itunes per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 and then trying to reinstall?+
Yes and yes. Try that and repair permissions. restart your machine and re-install iTunes (latest version). put the backed up folders etc back in the usual place (eventually overwriting was has been recreated there). import your playlists and connect one of your iPods.
good luck !
