Since 10.4.9 update: postfix needs to be started manually after reboot

Although mail services are all activated in Server Admin, postfix refuses to start up automatically after a system reboot.
All I need to do, is open a Terminal window and type "postfix start" and all is well.
The problem is, if we have a power outage or something else, then mail reception and sending is off-line until I discover that the server has rebooted itself, and I type in the commands again.
What could prevent postfix from starting up?
Ronald

Hi,
below the output of the commands, only the IP address in the range of the netmask was replaced with 12.34.56 and the domain name was replaced with domain.
The only strange thing is this line:
smtpdclientrestrictions = permit_mynetworks permit
which is the only line in which the parameters are not comma separated.
But why that would stop automatic startup, while manual startup works, is beyond me.
I also should add, I didn't mess with any config files except by proxy of Server Admin, since I'm more than aware of the fragile nature of such software dealing with such alterations.
Thanks for your help.
Ronald

Since loading the new update, my downloads only display one page after the Quicktime Player symbol is shown.

I often access published papers from our university library. Since I updated Firefox, the QuickTime Player icon displays on my Mac, the papers load properly, but only the first page is displayed. If I copy the full URL from the Mozilla address line into another browser, the full article is loaded with that browser. Can you help, please. Firefox is my FAVORITE browser, but lately is causing me problems. Thank you.

Totally agree with this post. I like my swr30 a lot less now. Some ideas of the updates are good, but the execution is poorly and unusable. How do you do a roll back as you mentioned?

I attend St. John's university and use ipad 3 to do most of my work. Since the iOS 6 update I am unable to connect to their network. I can connect to netgear router I have at home but I need the wifi at college as well. Is there anything I can do to fix?

I need wifi at college and can't get it since the iOS 6 update. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Talk to the support people at St. John's to see what the problem is and what they recommend.

Looks like Apple did the same thing with Lion that Microsoft did with Vista. Brought it on the market before it was ready.
I run a MacBook Pro and upgrading to Lion caused me two days of trouble and computer crash. Router settings removed and router blocked. Dongle not recognised, you name it.
In the end, I gave up and using my Snow Leopard installation disk and a Time Machine Backup finally got my computer up and running again. Thanks to Lion, I think I'll stay with OS X 10.6.8 at least it's reliable.

Since installing the latest update, Firefox will not load; it gives me the following error -- XML Parsing Error: not well formed.

since installing the latest update, Firefox first operated with some errors but now will not load at all; it gives me the following error --
XML Parsing Error: not well formed
locations chrome://browser/content/browser.xml
Line Number 1191, column 20:
utton id="back-forward-dropmarker" type="menu" chromedir="&locale.dir;"-------------------
please note that the words "utton ID" are exactly as the error message gives it; and at the end of the message there are exactly 19 hyphens.
I don't know why this faulty code is referencing things to do with "chrome"... the Chrome browser is not installed on this PC or anywhere on our network.
Also, this is not the first problem I had after clicking Firefox's prompt for the latest update. Before Firefox retreated into this error message, it was loading but running with some faults...
1. the bookmark symbol was not appearing on the right hand side of the URL line, so I had always to click on "bookmark this page", after which the bookmark symbol did appear; however I don't know if the bookmarking function worked properly.
2. the back and forward buttons were not highlighted, as if I had not come from a previous page; so once I clicked on a link to a new page I could not go back to where I came from because Fiefox thought I hadn't come from anywhere.
3. there may have been other errors, but I did not find them.
How do I reinstate my Firefox program to work properly please? do I have to download the latest version and reinstal? if so, do I have to remove the old version first? or is there a fix?
Even to write this message I have been forced to use (yuk -- I don't like to say this!!!) Internet Explorer. So please -- I need help urgently.
Thanks,
NOEL

Some how I solved my problem by opening a user account and downloading Firefox 4.0 beta and installing it, I did try it, worked fine, so I did close the user account and did go back to my own account(switched user), the main page that I had problem with Firefox which would not open, I dabble click on Firefox it start working again!! I hope that solves your problem too.

Why do I constantly have to restart my phone daily since the 4.3 update and why are there zero answers or help from Verizon or Samsung?

Ever since the 4.3 update, which I waited until end of January 2014 to download, My phone has been messed up. Some of the problems I solved on my own since Verizon and Samsung both refused to help me. I fixed the charging problem by using an HTC Incredible charger since Samsung's charger is garbage since the update. Battery drain is also a constant issue. Ram is ALWAYS full which should be a good thing but clearing it out completely and killing off all Google apps seems to make my phone all of a sudden fly and work super fast. As the day goes on I am unable to clear all of these unwanted items from being open and bogging down my phone. Most of the apps doing this are the preloaded ones you don't need. I am forced to restart my phone to get the memory cleared at least 2-4 times a day. Verizon tells me this is normal. Samsung hangs up on me when I call. Why do I have to restart this phone just to get it to work like it should after a few hours of being on? Does Verizon care about customers or just money?

@Verizon Wireless Customer Support. I have the 4.3 version that I got with the awful update. I waited until the end of January to download it and guess what was never fixed? Your update. Its been months and battery drain is not better at all. I have replaced with a new battery and it was the same problem. I have used safe mode numerous times and it does not do anything either other than annoy me some more. I have done a factory reset on my phone since the update I downloaded in January 47 times so far. It didn't do anything but erase everything and I had to start all over. Google apps are a major reason my phone is lagging. Once I force stop them the phone has incredible speed, when the Google apps are on, the phone lags. The internet browser is also super slow. 56k dial up has faster speeds than my mobile browser and I have full 4g lte bars. Its beyond annoying because when ever I call Verizon customer service I am told nothing is wrong. If I break the phone into a million pieces you would still tell me its working properly. This problem persists on a daily basis. I now restart my phone 4 to 6 times daily. I am starting to wonder why the quality of your company is getting worse and worse? I have been around with Verizon wireless since early 2000 when you first merged with Vodafone, but in the past 4 years things have changed dramatically and I have stopped feeling appreciated like Verizon once made me feel

You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours. If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for). You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.

My reminders are gone from my Ical since upgrade. What do I need to do to input reminders in Ical and be able to print reminders with my ical. Thank you

My reminders are gone from my Ical since upgrade. What do I need to do to input reminders in Ical and be able to print reminders with my ical. Thank you

I totally agree. I just wasted .5 hrs trying to figure out how to manipulate and sync the reminders with the iCAl. Thanks for posting this thread online, I can stop wasting my time now. Apple, please change it back or make these apps sync.
Side note. I was creating my to do list and found the ability to asign a date by draging the task to the calendar in the bottom right. Then I discovered that I can drag that same reminder/to-do task into iCal and it will be created as an event. Would be great if I could simply sync the reminders to iCal instead of draging them over though. Then when I make the change in one the other can update with the next sync. This also prevents human error if I drag and drop the reminder onto the wrong date in iCal.

Cannot download apps to iPad since iOS 5.1 update. Get error message "An unexpected error has occurred"

cannot download apps to iPad since iOS 5.1 update. Get error message "An unexpected error has occurred"

Hi mike,
Seems like a frustrating problem! Try restarting your device, and trying again. If that doesn't work, in settings, under store, tap your apple id at the bottom of the page, and then sign out. Sign back in again, and try again.
Also, check you have enough remaining space on your iPad for the app you want to download, you can do this in settings, then general, then usage.
I also reccomend buying the app in iTunes on your computer, and then syncing it to your device.
Let me know how you get on, and I'll get back to you with further help if needed,
Nathan

My Win 7 PC will not recognize my I-Phone 4S since the recent OS update. Reinstalling I-Tunes has not helped. What else can I try?

irst off, you can connect the device to another computer to import the photos. Second the error that you are seeing is a Windows error and you would have to look that one up on Microsoft.com. You should be able to remove the device from Device Manager, unplug the phone, wait a moment and then plug it back in. It should recognize it then and load the driver.
The message board is no longer allowing me to reply from that site. In answer to above, I don’t have another computer. Yes, what I sent is a windows error message but this is NOT a windows error. From what I can see online from others, this is a problem many are having as a result of something in the new OS we downloaded to keep our I-phones current. Everything worked fine before downloading the new OS and nothing changed in our systems except the new OS. Apple needs to diagnose the problem and develop a fix!
