Sniffer_gpu error/crash only when non-admin is logged in

I successfully installed Adobe Master Collection CS4 on our lab machines at school, WIn XP Pro (machine has all MSFT updates). Worked great for ANY local administrator. But when a student, a NON-local admin logs in, he/she gets sniffer_gpu error when running PhotoShop, PixelBender and AfterEffects immediately; can't use these products at all. I tried giving all users full control of C:\Program Files\Adobe and all sub folders and files and in the registry HKey_LocalMachine\Software\Adobe and all subkeys and still same prolem. Any ideas? It can't be an issue of drivers/etc 'cause the software works perfectly for all admins (like me and our "installuser" and "testuser" that is used to set up a machine. We also have "Active Directory" policies on our login/domain controller servers. But those policies only keep users from getting into things like the control panel and from installing/uninstalling software.
Any knowledgeabel help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Well no answers from anyone so I went back to another hard drive that I had set up personally for this lab rather than using my default hard drive that someone from the county office of education had set up for me in another school district with their default settings and default software load. Since somone else had set up that original machine in another school district the login used as the "installer" was an "unavailable" user in this school district. That resulted in a whacky set of security rules in the registry, making some keys totally unavailable even to local admins in the hkey_classes_root, as I found other errors for other software titles as well. So when I went to a hard drive that I had set up from scratch in this school district, everything is good to go, so far. So, not using hard drives set up in other domains seems to be the answer.

Keynote Crashing - with Lion. Most often when I switch out of Keynote to another program - Keynote freezes - says Application Not Responding. If I save the Keynote before switching, it does not crash - only when it says it is an "edited" file....help

Keynote Crashing - with Lion. Most often when I switch out of Keynote to another program - Keynote freezes - says Application Not Responding. If I save the Keynote before switching, it does not crash - only when it says it is an "edited" file....help

I posted this on another thread. See if this works:
1) Uncheck "Backup previous version" in Keynote's Preferences.
2) Make a duplicate copy of your file that has issues and save it.
3) If you still get spinning wheels from switching between apps after editing or 10 seconds of inactivity, manually save with command+s. It may beach ball here but be patient and wait for it to finish! Try editing and resume doing work now.
Command+s may be a bit slow but I think that might be normal since the files are so big.
Good luck and let me know if this works.

After Effects error: crash occured when invoking...

I get this error: After Effects error: crash occured when invoking rendering plugin "AE_openGL" when I have videos on the timeline and I am scrolling through them.
I run Windows Prof 7, 2.67 gigahertz Intel Core i7 920 Multi-core (4 total), 12 GBs Ram, NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT (2x). My system is fast. I saw one suggestion to turn off openGL. How should I set up my preferences to avoid this?
Thanks.

OpenGL should work even with SLI off. Yes, you lose some performance, but for AE's limited use of these features, it should be neglectible. If for some reason you still get crashes, then you may need to push a few otehr knobs and levers in the driver settings or install a new7 different driver right away. i just cannot offer you a blanket solution that would work from a distance. OpenGL settings are delicate, so you'll have to invest some time in your own experimentation...

Mail Crashing only when opening Attachments

I have a friend on the white intel imac, 17" screen, all updated to 10.5.7. Her mail keeps crashing only when opening any email with attachments. I have delete the apple.com stuff and reloaded everything. So that is not the problem. Any other solutions ?

The upgrade to 10.5.7 results in a new version of Mail (version 3.6). It is possible that the upgrade process has resulted in a problem with Mail. To determine if the problem is machine wide or isolated to your current login, try creating another user account with the same permissions as that which you are currently using. Login to that account, open Mail, set up your email account, send yourself an email with an attachment and see when you open it without Mail crashing.
If it does crash then the problem is system wide and I recommend that you download the [Mac OS X 10.5.7 Combo Update|http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_7_ComboUpdate] and install that. It is a large file (730Mb).
If it does not crash then the issue is with the other user account rather than being system wide. A possible solution is to do the following:
1. Open finder and Move the folder ~/Library/Mail to the desktop
2. Launch Mail and re-create your email accounts.
3. Import your old messages via the menu option "File" then "Import Mailboxes".
4. Select "Mail for Mac OS X", click Continue.
5. Select the Mail folder from the desktop and navigate to the folder Mailboxes within that folder then click Choose.
6. You will be presented with a list of pre-selected items to import so click Continue and the import will proceed.
If that works and you can successfully open and view messages with attachments then you can delete the Mail folder that you moved to the desktop in step 1.

SCCM 2012 powershell only when no user is logged in

Hi All,
I think this is probably me, I am trying to run a powershell script which calls an MSI in the Application node, seems to work fine when the user is logged on, but I wanted to run this as, only when no user is logged on, and install for system. It seems to
start and just exit straight away.
Command line: that I use: powershell.exe -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -file .\Install.ps1 is this correct to run as system?

I'm also having a very similar issue. In my scenario, I have a PowerShell script that runs an software update tool with different parameters based on the value of a specific registry entry. I was testing the SCCM Application when logged on and just running
for Software Center and it runs as expected, but when I changed the User Experience from "Run whether or not a user is logged on" to "Only when no users are logged on" and it fails. In the AppEnforce.log the following lines are present:
<![LOG[+++ Starting Install enforcement for App DT "Set New Servers - addiman" ApplicationDeliveryType - ScopeId_2E6C34BD-8633-43D8-B5B5-09A1C291D45B/DeploymentType_56ca55b4-ce9b-4dfd-a64f-db3da408013b, Revision - 5, ContentPath

I've did confirm that the Deployment was not to a User Collection as is implied by the error message and I even went as far as deleting and recreating the Deployment.
In addition, I have another Application (Java 7 Update 31) that I have set to "Only when no users to login" and it installs as expected. When run from Software Center the Status changes to "Waiting for users to log off" and it is installed
after I log off.
Is there some issue with this when trying to run a PowerShell script when logged off?
Thank you in advance for any insight as to this in consistent behavior.

"Error while printing" in non-Admin user

I have a non-admin account (for my wife) in my iMac G5, and from some days ago, all applications refuse to print. A msg telling "Error while printing" appears, and the application trying to print crash in some sort of way.
I can print the test page from the Printer Utility, so the printer (a Canon MP130) is fine.
Entering with my Admin account, i have no problem printing.
I check some help in Apple support, and as there is stated, i repaired permissions on both accounts.
And the problem doesn't solve. Still, ALL applications gives this message.
I'm not very tech in this, but i just note that the msg appears while the doc info is "going" to the printer, after i accept "Print" (spooling??)
Does anyone knows what i can do to correct this?

I never solved this...and still having troubles to print from the other user

Does "Error 213:11" as non-admin go away once paid for?

After Roxio disappointed me for the last time, I tried trial versions of both Premiere Elements 11 and Premiere Pro 6.0.3. Both gave me similar problems when launched as a non-administrator on Windows 7 Pro. After initially launching either application with "Run as Administrator," presumably to get any initial post-setup setup done (yes I meant to say that), the application would launch precisely once as a non-admin, present me with a pop-up window with the Error 213:11 code, then exit. Subsequent launches would present me with the pop-up without actually launching.
If this is related to whatever copy protection Adobe uses, does this issue go away once the products are paid for?

Mine is from my wife's subscription to the Creative Cloud since we share a PC. So it is paid for. But I can't imagine that is the problem. It sounds more like a firewall issue is keeping the program from getting the permission it needs to run.
Edit: Scratch that last comment. I found the following page: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-store-does-not-allow.html
Edit: And this comment elsewhere:
I was able to solve this for my users, buy giving them full permisions for two locations:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
and
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe

ECC / Parity errors but 'only' when running qmaster / Compressor ?!!

I have a Mac Pro that came with 4GB of (Apple) Ram. I recently installed 4 addiitonal (to fill both risers to 8GB total), of branded, supposedly apple-certified Ram from one of the major vendors we all have come to love and trust.
Anyway, all seems fine - but now I am running QMASTER/Compressor which in fact wires (or at least pages) so much ram as to make good use of my 8: I have only 80MB free- but hey that's good, the memory is being used.
Here's the odd thing, when doing compressor / qmaster tasks (this is both the cluster server and a service node) I now get ECC Parity errors:
- Of my 8 chips, 3 have trown ECC Parity errors (all corrected), ranging from 1 on one chip to now 35 on another. This is in a 24h period
- THis is on the APPLE ORIGINAL RAM - none of the 'new' chips have any errors ?!!!
- Errors show up in 'about system' as well as the console log- but I ran EXTENDED Hardware test twice - and both times the memory (whole system) comes up clean!
- ECC errors don't show up - as far as I can tell, if I don't 'extremely' tax the system - i.e. running email, Safari, iTunes and, maybe WoW keep it 'clean'! but also leave between 3-6GB memory 'free'
- The errors occur on 2 seperate risers
So, here's my dilemman - I can replicate this everytime i use compressor/qmaster. However, I never (yet) had a related crash or issues.
It started with 'just' one chip, now it's 3 - again, all the original apple ram.
My memory is installed correctly (i.e. both apple pairs together and both OWC together).
I would LOVE to get some suggestions. Logic would say this is related to the new memory BUT I also never ran a compressor/qmaster renderfarm before now. I already opened a case with Apple and they are sending me one new chip (I opened at the time only one chip was having the errors).
So - normal? Low enough at high volume I shouldn't worry? Routine with compressor and qmaster Or time to panic?
THANKS!
Dan

This is very interesting. We, too, recently experienced a hard RAM Parity Panic/Crash on a Qmaster/Compressor encoder node. About two weeks earlier, we experienced a RAM Parity Panic/Crash on a system that has nothing to do with Qmaster.
Both machines are dual G5 Xserves with factory-installed RAM. The encoder had six 512MB sticks while the non-encoder server had 2 1MB sticks.
The encoder died, but when rebooted kept working by ignoring the bad RAM and working off only 2GB of the good RAM (must be in pairs).
Apple replaced both sticks under warranty.
As for Qmaster/Compressor causing the errors, I have no insight. If that were the case, I assume we'd see this on most if not all our encoders and cluster controllers. And that hasn't happened.
I'd say, you got bad RAM and it needs to be fixed.
The panic.log should give you insight into which dimm slot threw the error.
Good luck!

FCP 7 crashes only when switching to other applications/finder

Hi everyone,
I've been working on a feature film for about 9 months in FCP 7. All went fine. I regularly backed up, copied to new projects (have had a few bad experiences with corrupted projects) and have otherwise had no problems.
Last night, all of a sudden, I got the spinning wheel of death while tidying something up. FCP crashed. No problem, I restarted it but the same thing happened again. I trashed my prefs, figure that would fix it but it didn't. Very strange because I didn't change anything with the project and the file itself is not that big, maybe 35 mb.
After about 20 crahses I figured out that it only crashes when I switch between FCP and another application, say Safari. I can work away on the project, but as soon as I cmd+tab to any other app (including finder) when I go back to FCP I get the spinning wheel and it eventually shows up as not responding.
I have re-installed FCP 3 times since yesterday, re-installed the OS, repaired the disk permissions, trashed the pref's A LOT, and have now even upgraded the OS to Lion - none of this has had any effect.
If someone sees something obvious that I'm missing please let me know. I'm tearing my hair out here. Searching extensively only doesn't seem to yield much.
I'm using a MacPro 1.1, OSX 10.7.4, 2x 3 ghz quad core processors and 14 gb ram.
Thank you for your time
Rick

I've had this problem too and figured out a solution to try before evicerating your system and trial and erroring RAM back into socket.
If you edit anything like I do you like to always be able to go back after making changes so you save all of your old sequences just in case you need to reference them later. While working on a televison show my FCP projects for each episode consisted of a sequence for each show act and a master sequence of the entire show run, all of which I copied and saved at the end of each day so I could backtrack changes if I needed to. Multiply this process by two weeks or so and pretty soon my episode projects consisted of at least 28-32 separate sequences in addition to all my media links, music, SFX, etc.
The solution that worked for me was to copy my current project and delete all the old sequences saving only the most recent two copies of my work;keeping a backup copy of my old work but removing them from my active project.
I had to do this folder by folder, about 4 sequences at a time) to prevent FCP from crashing in the middle of the delete but once it was done the problem was solved. I can switch back and forth between applications without any consequence and I'm back on track and able to work again. I've since adjusted my workflow so that when I hit four days worth of sequences I duplicate the project and (in the copy) I delete all the past sequences and start from my current cut. e.g. If I worked for one week and have five folders of past sequences then at the beginning of the next week I copy the whole project, delete the old material and start from my current cut. If I need to reference old changes I just open up the old project and it's all available without crippling my system.
As best as I can determine the crashes are a result of Final Cut trying to refresh media links to too many things when you toggle back to it from another progam and locking up. This seemed to solve the problem.
Hope it helps.

ITunes crashing (only when iPod Touch is connected)

It just started last night. Anytime I try to add music to the library or choose the folder to sync photos from, basically anytime iTunes has to access explorer to browse folder, it crashes and it doesn't give me any sort of error. It just tells me it has crashed and is reporting the problem. Like I said though, this only happens when the iPod Touch is connected. If I unplug it and then add music, it works fine but without it plugged in I can't add photos. Also, if I already have iTunes open and then connect the iPod, it crashes. I have to have the iPod already connected and then I can open iTunes.
Any ideas? I switched to using iTunes as my default player because WMP had too many issues. I don't want to have to go back.
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
iPod: 32GB iPod Touch 3rd generation on latest official firmware

More info: iTunes generates a standard WinXP Send Error Report/Don't Send error message.
The Error Signature is:
AppName: itunes.exe
AppVer: 8.0.2.20
ModName: quicktime.qts
ModVer: 7.55.90.70
Offset: 009fd1a7
I tried on another PC. Same crash. It seems either the problem is on the iPod Touch side, or some more general problem with iTunes.

WSUS crashes only when the "WSUS Service" is running

Hello,
I am fixing a WSUS server that was neglected for about a year. There was 30000+ approved updates when I got there and every query would timout.
After messing around with it a little I was able to have WSUS query all of the updates. I removed the superseded updates, unneeded language updates, and drivers. I was able to to get the Approved updates down to ~150.
Most of the computers worked fine and receieved all of their updates. 1 computer kept getting error 8024401F. I read that to fix this I could try "wsusutil reset" after I did that I started getting Timeout errors again. After playing with it some
more, I found that if I stop the "WSUS Service" WSUS will query fine without any issues. As soon as I start the service again I get this error:
The WSUS administration console has encountered an unexpected error. This may be a transient error; try restarting the administration console. If this error persists, <o:p></o:p>
Try removing the persisted preferences for the console by deleting the wsus file under %appdata%\Microsoft\MMC\.

Any idea what it might be?

Most of the computers worked fine and receieved all of their updates. 1 computer kept getting error 8024401F. I read that to fix this I could try "wsusutil reset"
I'm not sure where you read this, but it makes no logical sense at all to me. If only ONE computer is throwing an error, and many others (if not all) are working fine, the problem is almost certainly at THAT CLIENT, not on the SERVER!
As for your subsequent WSUS problems after launching the reset, it may take several days for the WSUSUTIL RESET to complete its reconciliation, so your behaviors after launching the reset are actually not unexpected. Especially since we know your server
has at least 30,000 updates synchronized.
As for the 0x8024401F error code:
0x8024401f
-2145107937
WU_E_PT_HTTP_STATUS_SERVER_ERROR
Http
status 500 - internal server error
any of several things could be causing an HTTP 500 error, but we really need to know IN CONTEXT where the error code is generated in order to identify an appropriate approach to resolution. One thing I'm pretty certain of... a WSUSUTIL RESET isn't the fix.
I see that you did ultimately resolve the issue by deleting the updates from the database using the PowerShell script. It's quite possible that the large number of updates was contributing to a single client's HTTP 500 error, depending on what the state
of that client actually was at the time the error was encountered.

Updating only when using Admin mode (since 3.6) and "ghosting" leaving images of others sites, apps, even pdfs I have opened in a browsing session that you can see when you shut FF down.

I can update FF while in admin mode but when I switch back to my user log-in it says I still need to update and has been this way since 3.6 at least.
FF is also leaving ghost images from other apps as it is shut down you can see, not sure if it is a memory leak or what but it is a little annoying.
