[SOLVED] kdeinit4 crashing on startup (and a few other new installat..

I have just switched from openSuSE to ArchLinux, and needless to say, am a bit disappointed as to why I didn't make the switch before. ArchLinux is just pure awesome and everything seems to be working fine after a mile of manual readings and tweaking around configuration files. There are just a few issues I'm facing:
1. kdeinit4 crashes on startup: I get a KCrash dialog which says that it has crashed. The title says 'The KDE Daemon has crashed'. This is the backtrace I was able to generate from that: http://pastebin.com/L7C9iwPY
2. KDE does not store any session data: I don't like those pesky launchers on my plasma panel (the one with the taskbar and all), so I removed them. But after the reboot, they reappear. I have to remove them every session. With yakuake, I have to change the height and width of the console at every reboot, as it just switched back to the default values at every session start. Some settings do seem to persist though, for example, I have my plasma panel set at the top screen edge. This stays the same for every reboot. I have a feeling this problem has something to do with the KDE daemon crashing.
3. Nepomuk keeps on crashing: I keep on getting this notification error on startup: http://imgur.com/PyGpQ
Other than this, everything seems to work with my laptop.
Information about my laptop
Model: Dell Studio 1555

Also, for now to solve the problem, I am making kdeinit not play any notification sounds. Since phonon-vlc is crashing KDE applications (from a look around the web, it is not only kdeinit that is crashing due to the phonon-vlc bug), this must be when it tries to play some media, which obviously is the startup notifications.
Go to System Settings > Application and System Notifications > Player Settings and select 'No Audio Output'. Works for me.
Or one can just switch to phonon-gstreamer, but in that case banshee and rhythmbox crash for no reason while trying to play media.
Now KDE is storing session data [was a huge problem since I could not use custom power management profiles.. pretty difficult with a laptop], but Nepomuk is still crashing. Not really buying the whole semantic desktop thing.. so just going to live with it till an update resolves it

I installed the latest version of Firefox last night. It worked 3-4 times flawlessly. Now, it crashes at startup and gives me a box with crash detail report. How can I fix this?

I have a brand new HP dv8t laptop that is straight from the manufacturer 2 days ago.
Last night, I attempted to download and installed the latest version of Firefox. After installing, it worked great for an hour or so (3.4 different sessions).
Then, this morning when I came back to the computer, Firefox crashes at startup and gives me the option of finding a solution online or quitting the program.
How aggravating!
I have installed this same version on 2 other computers that I own, without any issue.
I have attempted to uninstall Firefox from the dv8 and reinstalling, to no avail.
I cannot find the crash report, but I do this see this message once the app crashes:

Please help! I cant stand iE anymore and I'm so lost without Firefox!

You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

Adobe Premiere CS5 Crashes at startup and cannot update

My Premiere pro CS5 keeps crashing at startup and I tried to update it but it says “inapplicable” and won’t allow update....
I tried uninstalling as well but still doesnt work....

For the first issue, try this:
Go to the following locations
Location 1: When in Finder, click on Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Location 2: Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe
Location 3: Documents > Adobe
In all the locations, rename the 'Adobe' folders to 'OldAdobe'
Launch Premiere, accept the License Agreement and see if it works.
Note: You will lose your customized workspaces and keyboard shortcuts.
For the second issue, try this:
If you succeed to launch Premiere Pro, Go to Help > Updates and try to update from there. If you are not able to launch Premiere Pro and have any other CS5 app such as After Effects, open that and go to Help > Updates and see if you are able to update from there.
Thanks,

InDesign 5.5 is crashing on startup after upgrading to a new iMac

Any ideas why InDesign 5.5 is crashing on startup after updrading to a new iMac? I'm able to open and work in Photoshop and Illustrator without issues. Thanks for the help.
Here's the crash report: http://pastebin.com/FfiRHZ35

Besides needint to update to 7.5.3, the crash seems to be in SING (see SING Removal), but the more important question is did yo try to migrate the programs? That doens;t work, so if you did, uinstall and reinstall from the original installers, then run the updates.

The other responder gave you a program that will transfer stuff from your iPod to your new computer. You can transfer iTunes purchaces to your new computer by:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
After you move your stuff to your new computer you will have to let iTunes erase your iPod and then sync with the stuff that is now in your iTunes library. You will loose app data though.

I'm sorry we cannot help you.
You have Jailbroken your device. Apple does not support Jailbreaking and as such having done so has voided your warranty and forfeited any support from Apple and by extension these forums. We are not allowed to discuss Jailbroken devices in any way by the Terms of Service of the forum.
You will have to find help elsewhere. Ask the person that installed Cydia to restore the phone.

I installed iOs7 on iPad 2 and now when i'm in iBooks and tap "store" i get a blank screen. Same thing in itunes, itunes u, app store, and a few other apps won't connect. Safari seems to be working fine.

I had this same problem. Tried everything the internet said including a full restore. Which was terrible. Nothing worked until.....go to general...reset....reset all settings.
You had to go back in and reset anything you customized afterwards, however it does not allow the store to load. Thanks!

Few countries bank Account Number is mandatory and for few others it is not

For few countries bank Account Number is mandatory and for few others it is not mandatory in the Payment Transaction Tab in Bank Details of Customer.
My question is that why will anyone not fill bank account number when he has given Bank Key and other details.
Is it related to Payment by other methods , other by Cash.

Hi Ranjeet,
You should ask this question to the person who has information about bank details but not process them.
Yes bank account is related with payment transactions. If you want you can make this field mandatory in customizing;
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Customer Accounts-Master Data-Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data-Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Customers) or Define Screen Layout per Company Code (Customers) or Define Screen Layout per Activity (Customers)
You can also set message F2813 (Enter an account holder) as error in customizing;
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Customer Accounts-Master Data-Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data-Change Message Control for Customer Master Data

Have tried everything. We switched from Time Warner Cable, to AT&T firber optic, and now we cant send email to AOL, and a few other domains. rDNS is setup correctly, and still no go. Any help would be good.

Hi,
How about the internal communication?
Agree with both MAS and Rich, detailed errors will be helpful for the further troubleshooting.
Please use mxtoolbox to check blacklist.
Please check the Send Connector settings.

Crashes on Startup and to the best of my knowledge, unfixable.

Its a random chance at the start of a random day that it crashes on startup, freeze then crash. The only plugins i have installed are Java and Shockwave flash. I tried every method possible to the best of my knowledge but nothing worked. Eventually it let me back on, but it is still annoying regardless, as it happens nearly every time i start up Firefox.

If you are actually seeing Firefx crash hopefully it is generating and submitting Crash Reports; and the crash ID's would potentially be useful, they start with '''bp-''' and are obtained by navigating to ''about:crashes''
We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
#Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
#Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and then go back to your forum question and paste that into the "Post a Reply" box.

[solved] Anjuta crashes at startup

Hi
When I start Anjuta (1.2.2) it crashes with the follwing dialog-box-message:
The Application "anjuta" has quit unexpectedly. [etc...]
The terminal output:
(anjuta:4049): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: IA__g_object_set_valist: construct property "type" for object `ESplash' can't be set after construction
** Message: Initializing AP class
** Message: Initializing AP Instance
** Message: Initializing launcher class
(anjuta:4049): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_frame_compute_child_allocation: assertion `GTK_IS_FRAME (frame)' failed
GTK2 version: 2.6.6.
I don't know what to do in order to solve this crash.
So I thought I'd ask here if what I should do.
thanks...

I found out that this error occurs only under Gnome (for me). I can start anjuta in fluxbox. So I made a bug report.
It seems that anjuta 2.0 will come out soon. A beta version should be released in the next few days (according to this: http://www.anjuta.org/wiki/index.php/Anjuta2).

Firefox crashes on startup and we've tried all your solutions but none work

Firefox crashes when I double click the icon. I have gone through all the fixes on the website with no improvement. I am able to get it to open only when I right click and use the run as administrator option. I have reinstalled firefox, changed profiles, and tried safe mode option. All had the same effect firefox crashed on startup. I have run four different malware removal programs and restarted the computer, still crashes. I also ran my antivirus program last night and still crashes. I turned off the firewall and still crashes. I tried also the reset option in troubleshooting options but still crashes. Firefox worked fine till yesterday then java updated and the crashes started occurring, I have also done a system restore to before java updated but still crashes.
here is the crash report information.

Sorry it took so long for me to reply back to you, things around here got crazy with work and home life and I just had a chance this morning to get the crash report.
Here is the latest report ID from the computer.

Finder constantly crashes at startup and dock apps dont start

So everything was running quite well yesterday when apart from running chrome, notes, and vuse, i tried to resumed my vmfusion session and then it suddenly disappeared and then the machine started beachballing which was followed by a finder crash which left me with just my desktop image on the screen and nothing else. After a hard restart, the desktop came back but without any of the icons normally on the desktop and when i wanted to open up an app from the dock, the icon disappeared although the name (for example system preferences) remained. all the functionalities like spotlight and wifi at the top get highlighted but dont work, and then finder crashes again to just show the desktop image and nothing else.
This has happened over and over, no matter if I started it in safe mode, repaired permissions, or even reinstalled snow leopard. I don't know what else I can do since it wont even let me start or open any apps or folders. I feel it was a problem with vmfusion messing up with the kernel but am not certain.
any help is highly appreciated

Boot with the SL install disk, reinstall the OS, repair permissions, and restart.
