SnowLeopard & CS4, Dual Display (Open GL not checked) bad color problems...

I was hoping 10.6.2 might shake it but no luck...at all.
The menu bar is on my Apple Cinema Display 23". Eizo is the 2nd monitor (my main visual monitor -- and things seem normal on this display), but I often have reference photos open on the ACD, and the colors are bad, way too saturated and bright. Like a double bump of Adobe RGB. No matter what software I use to calibrate the results are the same in PS CS4, over saturated colors. CS4 is not reading things right. I have not found this in other software on my machine w/ 10.6.2 (example Preview doesn't get whacked out like PS CS4 w/ this. It plays right). Help? This has gone on since the installment of Snow Leopard and PS CS4, and quite annoying for dual monitor set up. Again the dreaded app killer OPen GL is not checked in CS4 Prefs.
Thanks.

Adobe can report bugs to Apple, but Adobe cannot fix bugs in Apple's code or force Apple to fix bugs in Apple's code.
It should be noted that I've NEVER BEFORE seen nor heard of a major dot release being released in less that 1 week of the shipping of an OS.
Apple shipped Snow Leopard on Fri Aug 28th. The crap hit the fan over that weekend and the 10.6.1 update (primarily to address data loss situations) was released on Thurs, Oct 3rd...six days later.
I know people tend to blame Adobe on Adobe forums, but Snow Leopard was, by all accounts a disaster....I've "heard" (from whom I can't really say) that Apple shoved a lot of last minute changes–supposed bug fixes that actually caused new bugs after the last developer's release.
So, Adobe was just as surprised as other major application developers when stuff got broken between the last RC and the final GM.
10.6.2 has addressed a lot of issues...but personally, I'm not gonna jump to Snow Leopard yet. I still think Apple has work to do to get back to the stability of 10.5.8. And, when I do (I've got my Snow Leopard DVD sitting on the table) it will be installed on an external boot drive to make sure the main drive remains a stable and productive work machine...

10.5.1 and dual display bug

I have been using my MacBook Core Duo (graphics card GMA 950) connected to a projector in dual display mode for over a year. After upgrading from 10.5 to 10.5.1, the macbook can function in mirror mode, but the projector does not receive a signal for dual display unless I restart the computer. The problem is consistent even though the projector has not changed.
Normally I plug in and the laptop screen changes to blue, then changes to dual display mode and sends a signal to the projector. Now, when I connect to the projector, the projector signal is black. I can switch to mirror mode using either F7 or via the Display preferences but there is no way to obtain dual display mode. Once I reboot, the problem is solved. This has been going on daily, each time with the same solution.

I get dozens of the "ACL found but not expected ..." messages, all on the contents of System/Library/User Templates/. When I go to System/Library/ in Finder, only the User Templates folder has a red icon on it, indicating that I do not have access to it (when logged in as an admin). The icon does not appear on any of the other folders in System/Library. Does anyone have any idea on what's going on?

Mini Display Port to Dual Link DVI Does Not Work Right

Somebody said here that this was an isolated problem. Well, I just got my new MacBook Pro 15", used the adapter to hook to the 30" Dell monitor, and it works a few minutes, then the screen distorts.
Count me among the isolated problems- it is beginning not to look isolated.
Now, do I wait on Apple to fix the problem, or do I return the MacBook Pro while still in the return period?

Hi, Matt, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
The Matrox Support only told me that the new MacBook Pro with Mini Display Port is not supported, but as it's working for 2x1680x1050 with the Dual-Link DVI adapter, I was wondering if the Mini Display Port to Dual-Link DVI Adapter could be the problem.
I suspect that what Matrox Support meant when they said "not supported" was, in fact, "not supported": i.e., they've tried it and it doesn't work satisfactorily. You've tried it too, and found that to be true. Now you just need to come to terms with the fact. Matrox is quite open about it; it's not a secret. See the 9400M/9600MGT MacBook Pro entry in this compatibility table from Matrox's web site:

Display Preferences does not detect dual monitors

Display Preferences does not detect dual monitors.
There is no workaround here.
Only a prompt update from apple will solve this.
Any level 5 geniuses I welcome your guidance... please prove me otherwise.

Hi marconi de baloni,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like the computer is not recognizing a second display. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
OS X Yosemite: Connect multiple displays to your Mac
If a display is not recognized, choose Apple menu > System Preferences on the primary Mac, click Displays, then click Display.
Open the Display pane for me
Then click the Detect Displays button.
You can also try putting your Mac to sleep and then waking it.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Mario

3G IPOD problems which are driving me mad and i can see others have had the same problem but i can't find any solution written down.
Basically my IPOD either freezes after a couple of songs or it downloads about 6Gb (of 40) and the freezes with the following message:
"The drive is not ready for use; its door may be open. Please check drive \Device\Harddisk2\DR6 and make sure that a disk is inserted and that the drive door is closed"
I've tried re-setting, installing etc but no luck. Any suggestions/solutions?

Hmmmm. I'm not sure how to explain this.
You need to change the Drive Letter for your iPod.
You should be able to connect your iPod then open Windows Explorer and right click on your iPod(which seems to be Drive E:) and change it to a different letter (like H).
If you haven't enabled disk use for your iPod it probably won't appear in Windows Explorer.
To enable disk use: connect iPod, open iTunes. Open Preferences and select the iPod tab. Choose "enable disk use."
Once you've done all that, try resyncing.

Never happened before. yesterday did the sofware update for maverick.

Thank you for your response, Chris. But I'm afraid I have to disagree. There are native 64 bit versions of iTunes available for OSX and Windows.
In a 64 Bit Windows environment native 64 Bit Applications install the DLL's in a directory called "Program Files" and a directory called "Program Files (x86)" (32 Bit applications only use the ladder).
iTunes 9 is consistent with this behavior - and it identified itself to the system as a 64 bit application (meaning it's process appears without a "*32" tag on it).

I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.53GHz Mid2009.. updated to Lion which is now 10.7.3 build 11D50b... when I close lid and connect to Cinema Display, display will not activate... disconnect display, open lid laptop display will not activate... used to work fine.

I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.53GHz Mid2009.. updated to Lion which is now 10.7.3 build 11D50b... when I close lid and connect to Cinema Display, display will not activate when keyboard/mouse used... disconnect display, open lid and laptop display will not activate... only way out is hold power button. Worked fine before Lion update. Any Advice?

Thanks very much Coander15... I've printed the doc you pointed me towards and I'll run through it.. hoping it helps!
Before I installed Lion I simply hit any key on the keyboard or clicked the mouse...
The keyboard is USB (usually connected to monitor which is connected to laptop... have tried direct connect to laptop as well with no luck) and mouse is USB wireless to one of those tiny plug in's... have tried direct connect USb mouse as well with no luck.
I could plug the closed/sleeping laptop into the monitor and unplug from the monitor without incident all day/night... always worked fine.
Had heard something about this happening w/ Lion but went ahead anyway.
Oh well...
Hoping your pointer helps... will let you know how it turns out. Thanks very much for responding!!!

Open item mgnt not checked earlier

Hi!
Can we change the setting of a gl after the document are posted. Earlier the open item mgnt was not checked. I have passed the JV's and the balance is Zero. But the system shows an error as "Open items exit" even the acount balances is zero.
Ans please......
thanx

Hi,
In order to change the Open Item Management for a G/L account using
ZFSEPA02 the line item total(Total of open items)for this account
should match/tally with the account balance for this account (FS10),
otherwise the open item activation will not be possible.
Unfortunately as per note 175960 you find reports RFSEPA02/ RFSEPA03
are no longer supported as of release 4.5A.
ALTHOUGH you can find a possible solution on how to tally the line items
to the balance in the NOTE 403744.
1. Active New General Ledger
         This note applies ONLY WITH RESTRICTIONS to Release ERP 2004 or ERP
         2005 with activated New General Ledger and activated document
         splitting.
         In these releases, it is not currently possible to subsequently
         activate the open item management under the specified conditions.
         The only option currently available is to set up a new account with
         open item management and to use this instead of the original
         account.
         However, it is also possible to deactivate the open item management
         using report ZFSEPA03 under the prerequisites described below.
     2. Migration to the New GL:
         If you are planning to migrate to the new General Ledger using a
         migration type that enables the use of document splitting, ensure
         that in Phase 1 and Phase 2 NO changes are make to the open item
         management. Phases 1 and 2 indicate the period between the migration
         date and the end of the actual migration (the "Migration Completed"
         indicator is set)

Warranty Counters Not Displaying in Customer Warranty Check

Dear All
My warranty counter is time dependent it means that i dont have to use measuring point and measuring document based on the following SAP help :
"There are time-dependent and performance-dependent warranty counters:
The indicator for time-dependence is set in Customizing, then the warranty counter is time-dependent. In this case, you must create a characteristic of the same name, which has a unit of the u201Ctimeu201D dimension, in the class system.
The system can use this to determine from the warranty start date and the value that was stored in the master warranty for this counter, whether the counter check is still valid for the key date."
Any other Clue ?
Thanks in Advance

IPad will open but not display information entered on a form sent as a PDF.

iPad will open but not display information entered on a PDF file. Same file will open and display all information on my iMac. Anyone had this problem?

I think that you are trying to view a form fields PDF file and you cannot see the content that was filled in on those fields. Form fields will not show in the mail app or in iBooks. Download Adobe Reader for the iPad. It is free and it offers a lot of features for a free app. Save that PDF to Adobe Reader and see if the text in the fields appear.

Try this: Use the [√]Mirror displays oprions, choose your resolution, then desect the [ ]Mirror displays.
It shouldn't supossed to be like this, but until they send an update, this workarround will work.

The "when I open a new link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" check box is not checked but it acts as if I check the check box

The "when I open a new link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" check box is not checked but it acts as if I have checked the check box.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== after I install the Persona themes

I was having the same problem and was looking for solutions when I came across this posting. Disabling GoodSearch solved the problem for me. Hopefully GoodSearch will update soon and resolve the issue permanently so I can use it again.

CS4 - Dual Monitor Setup - Files open on wrong screen + Preview Adjustment layers

I have various workstations running Mac OS 10.5.8 three run PS CS3, and one runs CS4
In CS4 files always open on the monitor I have allocated for my palattes. Before CS4, Photoshop would open files on the monitor that my last filed was opened on. This is highly annoying!!! How can I fix it so that it at least always opens on the same monitor.
(My menu bar is on the monitor I've designated for my palettes menu and not the monitor I do all my color work on.)
Also, any hopes that we will be able to have a preview button for adjustment layers again? This is highly annoying, and if I'm able to do so when adjusting directly onto a layer, why don't I at least have the option to have a preview button when having an adjustment layer????

Well if you menu bar is on your "second" monitor, it's generally considered now the "first" monitor, and hence most files will open on that screen by default. But sometimes you can make a file open on the other monitor if you have your mouse cursor in the other monitor. So put your cursor on the desired screen, press command-O and the open dialog should show there, and the image should open there too. Also works if you double click a file on the desktop of the 2nd monitor. (Usually, these are the window opening dynamics as best I can figure).
