[SOLVED] Typing delayed in pidgin and evolution

When I type something in pidgin or evolution, after a couple of seconds the screen stops updating even though the apps are receiving my keypresses. If I stop and wait for a while or move the mouse it updates the screen. This doesn't happen in firefox or urxvt. I'm using Awesome WM.
Edit: The culprit was the "unclutter" tool I was using to hide the mouse cursor

yes i see this in pidgin. it does not happen all the time. (using gnome and metacity)
and i see freeze of the GUI. may be after it plays notificatino sounds. the GUI goes gray (not refreshed) goes back to normal after a second. may be related to episode when i saw pidgin eating 100% cpu.
it's a lot of problem i think for only one apps.
i wonder if it's X or pidgin
i recently had problem with refresh but for all the screen too. the cursor mosue was still moving but i could not interact with anything on gnome desktop for a few seconds. almost 10 seconds. it happened 4 or 5 times.

Delay in video and Audio

I use iChat to video chat with two friends in the UK. One is a o2 user and the other is a talktalk user. Wen chatting we experience an up to 7 seconds delay in voice and Video and audio. When we change to Skype there is no delay. Can you explain and solve this please. You do a great job Ralph. Thank you.

Hi,
Umm Bermuda.
Ok Start with.
If anyone is on 10.5.x then go to System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming at set the drop down to 1.5Mbps and restart iChat (so it "Sees" the new speed)
On Snow Leopard and Leopard computers go to iChat > Preferences > Video Section and set the Bandwidth to 500kbps as a starting point.
If this in itself does nor sort the issue the slowest Buddy (Internet Connection) should drop their's to 200kbps - This is on the iChat Limit in a 3 or 4 way chat as the Specs say 384k
It is worth while having the Connection Doctor (Video Menu) open for this.
Also try changing who is Host.
Ideally it should be the one with the fastest Internet connection.
I have a vague feeling about Bermuda or one of the other small islands where the Local telephone company had become the default ISP - and in the day of iChat 3 where effectively blocking iChat by blocking the SIP Ports (Vonage and other VoIP adapters) that "lost" them Long Distance Telephone connection monies.
The thread about that was some time ago.
It maybe that they cannot support Video chats (Or lots of Off island Video Chats and On-line gaming) due to the ISP's own data rate to the "Main land".
Does it become apparent when you join the chat ?
Or does it not matter who hosts and who joins last ?

Keyboard Issue: Typing 't' produces 't5' and typing 'y' produces 'y6' after computer error.

dv6700 laptop left on in backpack for about a hour. When I discovered the laptop, it was on, but the screen was blank. After restarting the computer beeped three times, but would not boot. I tried to bring the computer up a few times getting only the beeps. The next day the computer runs fine except when typing the characters 't' and 'y'. When typing 't' the letters 't5' come up and when typing 'y' 'y6' comes up. Nothing was spilled in the laptop. I suspect it overheated. Thanks for the assistance.
This question was solved.

Hi,
It seems to me mechanical errors here since all 4 characters are close together. The first thing I would check to see any thing such as metal, wet ... or even a piece of something is sitting underneath of these keys. The second thing I would check to see any damage for the electrical connection under the keyboard. The following book shows you how to remove the keyboard and then put it back:

Good luck.

Experiencing Delay Between Midi and Audio MOTU 828 Mk1

Hi everyone
Wondering if somebody can point me in the right direction. I'm using an Intel iMac running Leopard 10.5.8 and Logic 8. I just got hold of a MOTU 828 MkI and am experiencing a severe delay between midi and audio.
Clock source is set to internal in the 828 settings and sample rate is set at 44100, so that's all as it should be.
I'm at a loss has anybody got any ideas?
Many thanks.

Hi,
I assume MIDI is earlier than audio.
Do You have plugins in busses and or master outputs?. Try to disable them and see if that still happens.
Here I had issues with 9.01 that aren`t plugin related and had to reboot to solve it. I upgraded to 9.02 and didn`t see them again (yet.)
If you HAVE to have your plugins in the busses and master and still want to have your MIDI properly aligned... Well you´re asking too much, my friend. Write a polite letter to Apple telling them if they´re joking calling Pro to this app that can´t keep two basic features in sync. BTW: same happens with video (at leat in L8. Didn`t check 9 with that yet)
After that, breath deeply and use the input objects to route your midi instruments inside Logic. Then they´ll be in sync, but at the price of loosing all their analog warm. Weird, isn´t it?

I keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get it when I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon.

I've just installed Firefox on my laptop and keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get this message whenever I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon. I've never gotten it to work and even uninstalled it and then redownloaded it and still cannot get it to open. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Are you installing from the official site? http://www.mozilla.com/firefox
If you use Windows Explorer (My Computer) to check that path, is the Mozilla Firefox folder there? That is the normal installation location, but I think it's worth checking.
If the folder isn't there or firefox.exe is not in it, I wonder whether some other software might be interfering. You might want to run some supplemental security scans. These two tools are highly regarded:

Delayed Payment charges and Arrears in the Invoice output

Hi,
can we show Delayed Payment charges and Arrears in the Invoice output in case of SD invoice. From where can i take those. suggest.

Hi,
Please check whether the SMARTFORM/SAP SCRIPT was created in the DE login langage, if so then you have to maintain the Language conversion using SE63 transaction
Goto SE63 and in that transaction you have option to convert the TEXT to different langage.
Use transaction SE63 (translations). From the menu select:
Translation - Logntexts - Sapscript - Forms
From this point on you can translate both the descriptions and the
window texts. This transaction also checks if you don't forget to
translate a part of the script.
Hope it is clear
cheers,

Hey there Luba_kalstad,
It sounds like you are unable to join your network and cannot see it in the Wi-Fi list in Settings. I would try the troubleshooting outlined in this article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
And this section down toward the bottom if needed:
Unable to locate a Wi-Fi network
Verify that the network is available by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi and choosing from the available networks.Note: It may take a few seconds for the Wi-Fi network name to appear.
Move closer to your wireless router (access point) and attempt to locate the Wi-Fi network.
If you do not see the network you would like to join, you may be attempting to connect to a hidden network. Learn how to join a hidden network.
Supported Wi-Fi configurations vary by iOS device model. Find out which standards your device supports3.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

I put my ipod on voicecontrol by accident so i typed in my password it said it was wrong i typed it in over and over and it said connect to itunes so I did then i updated it and it told me to restore it still says to connect to itunes please help.

I put my ipod on voice control by accident so i typed in my password because I wanted to listern to my music it said it was wrong. So i typed it in over and over again until it said connect to itunes so I did. Then while I was at it I updated it I waited 30 mins and then I couldn't turn it on. When it finally did turn on it still said please connect to itunes. So i restored it and rebooted it everything. And it still says connect to itunes. I go on itunes and it says ipod touch is in restore mode unlock password. Well I can't do that if my ipod is disabled. Please help.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Is anyone else having email problems such as apps exiting in the middle of an email? It may be a wireless issue. I use First Class for work and yahoo email for personal. I will be in the middle of typing a long email and the app just quits, all data lost.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

TS3579 I found this useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data. I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up

It sounds like there are a couple things going on here. First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance. Once you find this, make sure the service is started.
If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error. If you get an error, post the error message your hitting. If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect. If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
name in the connection dialog. Ex: "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name. However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format. Ex: COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
is the instance name you set during install).
You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install. Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.
