This is the error message I found under administative events. I can provide other info if needed

Try first to reset all Skype settings.
Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
Restart Skype.
N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

Connect your Mac to anther via firewire and boot your Mac into target disk mode (hold down the 't' key when booting up. Hopefully your hard drive will show up on the desktop of the other Mac. You can then begin removing files.
The key thing to do here is find the file that was created to fill up all the remaining space on the drive and delete it.
This file was created solely so that it could be zeroed over, and it would have been deleted when the zeroing was complete. Because you interrupted the procedure, you're left with this big useless file on the drive, no free space, and OS X is unable to log you in because it can't perform the normal writing of files that it would normally do when you log on.
Delete this one file - I have no idea what it's called, so do some Goolging - and you'll be able to log in as normal. Sure you're short of space, but there's no need to delete any of your important photos, letters or email. Once you can log in again as normal Google "upgrade MacBook hard-drive" and spend like $50 on the required new disk, cloning across the old (but working) system.
Stroller.

Google Chrome and Skype Won't Start / Crashing After 10.9.2 Update

I installed 10.9.2 today and am unable to start Google Chrome, Google Chrome Canary, or Skype. All 3 of them seem to be failling on the same piece of code ("FillInSystemVersionInfoFromString"). Has anyone else seen this issue? Could it be related to some other conflicting software? I don't see the issue with any other installed applications, and the same thing happens when I try starting the apps from a brand new user account. I also already tried to re-seat the 4 RAM sticks, no dice.

Skype won't start up Windows 10

did not help

Try to reset all Skype settings. Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old. Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder. Restart Skype. N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

Skype won't start (Werfault.exe)

Yesterday I was in a call and I was asked to host, so the host hung up for me to recall the group, but when he hung up my skype crashed and wouldn't reopen.
When I try to reopen it, skype.exe apears in my processes for about 5-10 seconds before werfault.exe shows up and they both disapear.
I've tried reinstalling it and installing older versions but the same thing keeps happening.
I've been using skype for I'd guess about 7 years now and it's the best way to keep in contact with everyone I know so I really need to get this fixed.

The error message is different from what is usually seen when the issue is caused by conflict with BIOS.
What is the version of Internet Explorer installed on your computer?

Safari, Mail, iTunes and Skype won't open

Hi there Apple-Support-Team,
a few days ago I did an update of Safari, suggested automatically by Apple, but wasn't sure if the update was successfull (I had to leave the house).
Now all applications with internet connection (Safari, Mail, iTunes, Skype) won't open anymore. Not from the dock or the application folder. I checked my internet connection which seems to be working.
I've seen quite some reports in this forum but I am not sure if I'm having the same trouble as the other users. I get no error reports or anything else, the apps just don't open.
Mac OS X version 10.4.11
Safari 3.0.4
Many thanks
Mexximexx

Welcome to the forums!
Did you restart your Mac after the install?
If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have) and it is misbehaving:
N.B. Never delete Safari, never run it under Rosetta, don't use proxy settings, and don't change the application's name or move it from the top level of the Applications Folder to a sub-folder.
(If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall. Alternatively you can download Safari directly:
Safari 4.1.1 for Tiger can be downloaded here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1069
Safari 5.0.1 for Leopard (and Snow Leopard) can be downloaded from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070
Make sure you download the correct version for your system.
Also, observe the recommended procedure for installing software: repair permissions and close all applications, install, then repair permissions again.)
Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta and which was updated to v.3.1.2, and now Tiger uses Safari 4.1.1 and Leopard uses Safari 5.0.1, as does Snow Leopard albeit a different version. If these latest versions of Safari are not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
(Trying to revert to a previous version of Safari can have repercussions, as previous versions of Safari used a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, but if you really want to do this post back for instructions on the safe way to do so.)
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-ons that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet, and the dreaded CT Toolbar. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for the latest version of Safari on your current operating system.
You must also ensure that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates. These require a restart and a permission repair.
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:

Lastly, the Safari updates require a restart of your Mac, and sometimes even a double restart is required.

Firefox won't start, there is no error message and it is not already running.

Hi,
When I try to click on firefox, the little wait icon appears and then disappears. Nothing opens, not even safe mode. I've looked at the "Firefox won't start and there is no error message" help section and looked at my task manager processes. It seems that when I click firefox, it briefly appears on my processes and then disappears. This happened yesterday while I was in the middle of using it. At the same time, my Skype also crashed, which makes me think the two are correlated. The two programs still don't work. The only way that I can open firefox is if I install it all over again with the "launch firefox now" option checked at the end. When I have a firefox window open, I can open other firefox windows just fine. When I close it, nothing opens. Thanks for your help.

1) Start Task Manager
2) Open Processes (make the description area large enough to see)
3) look for a description that says ''firefox''
4) Select it and press End Process
'''Now Firefox should work properly.'''

VMWare Workstation 10 won't start [solved]

So, I did a full system update and now VMWare won't start. I applied the netfilter patch on the wiki and that made it so the modules will compile(despite me using the stock kernel I encountered compiler errors). However, now I'm really stuck. When I try to launch vmware it just sits there and never does anything
This is the output I see:
[earlz@EarlzWork ~]$ vmware
Logging to /tmp/vmware-earlz/vmware-modconfig-1186.log
And this is what's logged:

It will just hang at that command indefinitely, despite all the modules appearing to have loaded fine

I am experiencing the same issue. After you run vmware, do you still see the process running but nothing appears on screen? Do a strace on vmware and let me know what results you obtain. These are the last few lines of my strace;

Notice the pause( ? It appears vmware is waiting on something, though I am not sure what. I am using kernel 3.12.1-3-ARCH. When I rebooted yesterday is when I started encountering problems with vmware not loading. The last time I rebooted prior to yesterday was March 11th.

Not sure what impacted vmware at this point.

Arch won't start , probably due to Catalyst

Hello,
I have a small (Big) problem on my computer , that probleme made me whype my HDD thrice for now , because like said in the title my ARCH setup won't start , so here is the problem : The loading is stuck after those few lines :
//Talking about the number of blocks in /dev/sda3
[ OK ]Reached dhcpcd on eno1
[ OK ]Reached target Multi-user system
[ OK ]Reached target Graphical Interface
[ OK ]Reached target Network
The things I know about this problem :
-First happened when installing Catalyst
-I did a very small install with the base / base-devel / skype / gnome / gnome-extra / xorg and the Unoficial catalyst repo (I think I forget nothing ...)
-It happened with or without xf86-video-ati
-It is stuck there. It won't let me do anything
-Due to the xorg116 bug with catalyst I used the unofficial xorg115 repo each time
Unfortunately each time I did a
systemctl enable gdm
so I can't do any test.
Anyone has a clue of what is happening ? I tried using lxdm for example , but since it did not work very fast , I did not use it , and I had forgoten to add Catalyst that time.
So should I stick with the xf86-video-ati , use lxdm (or an other display manager) or do another thing ?

So know , with tying to use the startx command I think I can say that the problem is not GNOME but the drivers ....
Because startx crashed , and the log (http://pastebin.com/tTndn5ep) complains about a "dri3" module that is not found (look at about line 610)
This is a more problematic thing I think
And by the way I don't have the package xorg-twm

Skype won't let me leave a video message although normal chats work OK.
I uninstalled Skype and then reinstalled with version 7.1.105.
I left the 'start up Skype after downloading' ticked. Onve downloaded, I did not get the screen 'SkypeSetup'. It automatically went to the login screen. I logged in and again the cirular 'busy' icone started.....and after many minutes is still going - so I cannot proceed further
I have deleted temporary internet file
My AV is Norton 360, up to date
My operating system is Windows 7
My browser is IE11
Can you help please?
Try to disable Norton 360 Firewall:

Skype won't let me click on user and will not let me write, I have the latest version and I have a pc withwindows 7, you have installed all updates, hear that the problem is with internet explorer, but how to fix it,because when I go to internet explorer and for example look for facebook and you feel the same, does notlet me log in nose

Try this:
Go to Windows Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right click on Command Prompt, select 'Run as administrator'.
In the Command Prompt type: cd c:\windows\syswow64 and press Enter.
Next type this and then press Enter:
regsvr32 jscript.dll
Next type this and press Enter:
regsvr32 jscript9.dll
After each Enter you should receive a message saying that DllRegisterServer in XXX.dll succeeded.
Reboot your computer.
Make now the test showing if your Internet Explorer can execute JavaScript.
Open in your Internet Explorer this page and watch the response:

Try to reset all Skype settings.
Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
Restart Skype.
N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

SAP won't start after recabeling sap system

Hi, 
 
I have recently recabled my sap system (from wireless to wired) and now my sap instance won't start anymore. The weird thing is that nothing major was changed. When i read the logs from the work directory it seems it cannot load dbsdbslib.dll. I have updated to the latest version of the kernel and maxdb (kernel=7.00 patch 221, maxdb=7.6.06.07) and i made very sure i got the right kernel (NT AMD64). I also checked the environment settings for the <sid>adm user. The weird part is that it seems SAP cannot connect to the database, but the databse starts just fine and r3trans -d also returns no errors. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong? 
 
Kind regards, 
Bas

Natalia,
 
To answer your questions:
1. Did you create the SAP ticket, where this problem is
reported?
I didn't report it to SAP because it is just an IDES test
system. I can easily do a reinstall, but i would like to know the cause and
solution to this problem.
 
2. Do you have dbsdbslib.dll at this location? What version?
Yes, i have the dbsdbslib.dll at location
D:\usr\sap\IDE\DVEBMGS00\exe and also D:\usr\sap\IDE\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64
Version is 7000.221.16.41497 (kernel 7.00 SP 221)
