[SOLVED]NetworkManager won't work since updating to KDE 4.3.4

Hello there,
I'm running Arch64 on Qosmio X300 notebook. I have just updated to KDE 4.3.4 and since the update the NetworkManager won't connect to my wifi (I haven't tried wired yet). I use following packages for NetworkManager and KNetworkManager applet
kdeplasma-applets-networkmanager 1047027-1
networkmanager 0.7.2-1
There seems to be nothing strange in the daemons.log, but the KNMgr tray icon keeps saying "Networking information not available" and when I click it I get "Network Management Disabled" instead of the usual menu. I still can configure network manually and wicd is also working fine.
I remember putting my notebook to suspend-to-disk by mistake instead of shutting it down right after the update, so that's when it might have gone crazy. I tried reinstalling NetworkManager and the KDE applet and googling around a bit, but nothing has helped so far...

NM is definitely running, "ps aux | grep Network" gives me

I tried uninstall -reinstall method, but the plasma applet still sticks to the "Networking information not available" message.
This is how the NM related info in daemon.log looks like

Musicapp, speaker and volume control won't work since updated to iOS 7.1

Since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1 my iPhone works faster than iOS 7. But some apps like musicapp, youtube have no volume control and the speakers won't work. When somebody call me the iPhone rings normally. I tried turn off bluetooth because I thought the iPhone will conect to my car. I pressed the lock and homebutton for reseting, I deletetet my whole iPhone and installed iOS7.1 again - nothing changed. Only when i plug in my earphones everything will work as normal.

Hi AmishCake!
Thanks for your tipp! i cleaned the headphone port and usb-port and reinserted the plug several times!
i think this isn't the problem!
here i prepared a picture how the screen looks like when i plug in my headphones!
https://www.dropbox.com/s/omi3hlp1zzyx43k/Foto%2026.03.14%2013%2017%2040.png
it seems to be a problem of the update to 7.1 because some guys posted the same problem on other sites.
sorry for my bad english and thank you for trying to solve my problem!

SOLVED Sqlitebrowser won't load since update changed dependency to Qt5

I think this is the first qt5 program I've tried to run. I didn't even have the qt5-base package until sqlitebrowser updated and pulled it down as a new dependency. Anywhere here's the error I'm getting which seems to be common among qt5 apps but I can't find a solution:
$ sqlitebrowser
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb".
Available platform plugins are: eglfs, kms, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, xcb.
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Aborted
I already have the xcb packages though is what confuses me
$ pacman -Qs xcb

I'm running KDE if it matters. Since KDE is qt4 based, maybe there's a conflict there. Really not sure at this point.

Do you have libxkbcommon-x11 installed?
EDIT: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40569
The nice folks on IRC helped me conclude that that was indeed the package I was missing and installing it solved my problem. I'm thinking about filing a bug report on qt5-base suggesting they add libxkbcommon-x11 as a dependency (right now it's only an optional dependency) as it's very small, doesn't have many dependencies of its own, and nearly everyone running qt5 at the moment is going to be running X
If they're trying to make qt5 not dependent on X for Wayland support, they're already failing anyway because qt5-base depends on libxrender and libxi which both depend on libx11. Libxkbcommon actually does not depend on libx11 and it's only dependency besides glibc (installed on nearly 100% of Arch systems) is the 5MB xkeyboard-config with no dependencies of its own and installed on 94% of Arch systems as it's required by xorg-server-common.
EDIT: And bug reported:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/41055
EDIT 2: Marking this as solved. The initial bug report for adding the dependency to qt5-base was denied so I filed one for sqlitebrowser and the developer added the dependency there.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

160gb ipod classic won't sync since update to 11.2.2, system wants to wipeout all current info on device

same has happened to me, on and off, for the last 6 months. Its an issue with the Mavericks system and ipod classics. works great for a while - then one day for no reason - erases the entire iPod. some days the copmputer will not recognize the iPod and you have to start over. Apple will tell you that "you" may have a disc problem in the device. that is all the help I have received.

My iMessages don't work since updating. It says the Messages database is being upgraded, please wait while it finishes or Quit Messages and relaunch it later. How do I get them working again?

Back up all data.
Quit Messages if it’s running. Force quit if necessary. Relaunch it and test after each of the following steps. If the problem isn't resolved, quit again and go on to the next step.
Step 1
Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain.
From the Category list in the lower left corner of the window, select My Certificates. Look carefully at the list of certificates in the right side of the window. If any of them is marked with a red "X" as expired or invalid, delete it. Also delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name, whether valid or not.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ Certificates
There are three menus in the window. Change the selection in the top two to Best attempt, and in the bottom one to CRL.
Log out and log back in.
Step 2
Hold down the option key and select
          Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
          Containers/com.apple.corerecents.recentsd
          Caches/com.apple.Messages
          Caches/com.apple.imfoundation.IMRemoteURLConnectionAgent
          Containers/com.apple.iChat
          Containers/com.apple.soagent
          IdentityServices
Leave the Library folder open. Log out and log back in.
Step 3
Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
          Messages
Note: you are not moving the Messages application. You’re moving a folder named “Messages.”
If Messages now works, delete the Messages folder on the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Messages again. Put back the folder you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place.
Step 4
In the Preferences subfolder, there may be several files having names that begin with any of the following strings:
          com.apple.iChat
          com.apple.ids
          com.apple.imdsmsrecordstore
          com.apple.imessage
          com.apple.imservice
Move them all to the Desktop. There may also be a file with the name "com.apple.imagent.plist". Move that to the Trash.
Also in the Preferences folder, there's a subfolder named "ByHost". Open it and do the same thing.
Log out and log back in. Test again. This time Messages should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. You may be able to put back some of the files you moved to the Desktop in this step. Relaunch and test after each one. Eventually you should find one or more that causes Messages to malfunction. Delete those files and recreate whatever settings they contained.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Messages again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were. You don’t need to replace the items you moved to the Trash. Stop here and post your results.
If you later decide that you don’t like the results of Steps 3 and 4, you can undo them completely by quitting Messages and restoring the items you deleted in those steps from your backup.

HTC DNA Backup Assistant won't work since 1/1/13

HELP! No matter what we've done - hard reset and GOT A BRAND NEW HTC DNA - still backup assistant won't work since 1/1/13. This is NOT anything to do with Facebook.
This all started with that same 1/1/13 error that so many of you got. The tech also had me clear the contact storage. That worked for the error. But since then I don't have contacts. I have talked to at least 7 Verizon techs, one HTC tech, then spent 2.5 hours in the Verizon store today. Ended up with a brand new HTC DNA (mine was only one week old) for free.. and we immediately tried to sync to Backup ASsistant and it still won't work on the new phone. I have 521 contacts stored online in My Verizon Backup Assistant and they will not, no matter what we try, sync to my phone. So frustrated. Anyone else experiencing this?
~Tami

After all my hell- after so many calls and trips to Verizon...as well as getting a new phone..... guess what FINALLY worked:
http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-faqs/10144-migrating-contacts-phone-backup-assistant-google-contacts.html
Now I finally see ALL my contacts in "people" when I select my phone icon and people. But now I'm trying to test it out by composing a new text message and all these people aren't showing up there. Does it just take a lot of time!?!? Since I did import 524 contacts from BUA to Google?... will it just take time for these contacts to be available for me to text!?!? HELP.. (again).

My home screen button has stopped working since updating to ios7 (iphone4)
Originally i noticed that it was less responsive but now it does absolutely nothing.
I have cleaned the button and also tried calibrating (opening an apple app, holding the power button and then the home button)
Nothing has helped and I am forced to use assisted touch.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

No advice? I suppose I could try sacrificing an android to the apple gods.....

Word for Mac no longer working since updating

Since updating to lion my Word for Mac won't open

You're welcome. You might want to check for other PPC apps to avoid being caught off guard again. If you go to the Apple Menu and choose About This a Mac, then click more info, then a System Report, and finally Applications (or Software I can't remember) you can see how each application is coded. Anything that has PPC next to the mane will no longer work.

ITunes won't work after updating to iOS 8.3

After updating to iOS 8.3 my iTunes App on my iPhone 6 Plus and iPad Air now both don't work.
If I go to play an sample of a song, the little square box with the cover on spins around and then spins back around and no music will play. I'm all so unable to play any music that I've already purchased via iTunes on my iOS devices.
Any comments on what could be causing this?
All so, on another note. My friend has just updated to IOS 8.3 and he just noticed that he no longer even has the iTunes App on his iPhone 5.
Thanks.

After posting this, I've since found out that my iOS iTunes App on my iPhone 6 Plus works all OK when on WiFi, it just won't work when on the data/3/4G connection.
Anybody else having this same issue since updating to iOS 8.3?

[Solved] Startx won't work! Laptop issues.

Okay, here is what Ididin as much detail as possible.
Dual boot: Windws XP + Archlinux
the partition is like this
80 GB XP
80 GB arch
*10 GB root
*70 GB /home
Video Card: nVidia Geforce Go 6100
Okay, so after I installed, I decided to and uncomment all available US repositories with HTTP on them, not FTP. Then I did a full system update, and got the latest nvidia drivers. So I run nvidia-xconfig, got a little confused when it didn't work and I noticed /etc/X11/xorg.conf was missing. After a while I realized I forgot to download Xorg, once I ran the command it worked. I downloaded HAL, started it and it worked. Then I ran startx, and it wouldn't work. I went into the IRC channel, and tried showed all the errors I got, after a while I was told I shouldn't be using root under any circumstances and the first thing I should have done is create my user ID, which I did, then made myself a Sudoer. Obviously, the errors still appeared, no matter what I did with Xorg. -.-

Yep carol.
Nope I didn't install freetype.
Also, I noticed whenever I try to install nvidia I get an error that says these files already exist, and that there is a: Errors occured. No packages were upgraded. In a list of a bunch of files I can't even really list out at the moment.
Pacman -S nvidia gets me that error, when I tried reinstalling xorg, it worked fine. Even when I deleted the cache, and uninstalled files it had the same issue.
I was told to install the latest version available though (again). since I installed some version I got back in 2008 in December. But I've been too hesitant since I felt I might need one of those extra CDs later. So I figured out how to do it through USB, not sure if I should just yet though.
And sorry, didn't notice that long error the last time I thought it meant it was already installed.
But I did do a full system update at least though.
