[SOLVED] urxvt has stopped showing accents

Hello,
Quite suddenly (to me) urxvt has stopped showing á, é, í, ñ and the like. They worked yesterday, and they still work in console and xterm -- the latter uses a different font, but the former does not.
The relevant section of .Xresources:
URxvt.font: -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
URxvt.boldFont: -*-terminus-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
and the whole /etc/vconsole.conf:
KEYMAP="es"
FONT=ter-114n
#FONT_MAP=8859-1_to_uni
FONT_MAP=8859-1
Is anyone seeing anything strange? The only relevant change I can think of is that I have removed initscripts. I've been using systemd for some weeks and (I thought) the package was just there sitting idly. Maybe it wasn't.

I'm also experiencing this after the switch to systemd.
~/.Xdefaults
urxvt*boldFont: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1
urxvt*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1
/etc/vconsole.conf
KEYMAP=br-abnt2.map.gz
FONT=
FONT_MAP=
Maybe this has something to do with locale settings?
/etc/locale.conf
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=C

PSE 12 Has stopped showing thumbnails for new files

PSE 12 has stopped showing thumbnails for new file imports. Have Windows 8.1 update

In the PSE12 Organizer, the last files imported show an hourglass thumbnail. I am importing from the camera card. Other images have the correct thumbnail. I see the spinning icon on the lower bar showing it updating the catalog. Thank you for your assistance

Lightroom has stopped showing thumbnails on Import. How do I get my previews back?

My Lightroom (5.3) has stopped showing previews on Import. I can still see older Imports in Library but my latest Imports are just grey boxes. I can open the boxes in Develop and these stay as previews for up to 3 thumbnails in Library before disappearing again. I have tried reinstalling Lightroom 5. I have checked my sRGB. It is the same problem with different cards and different external drives.
How can I get my Library to show Preview thumbnails once more? Thanks, Angus

Could it be that the Camera Software is installed and it got Updated?
-Sometimes it happens that the "autoplay" uses the Codec for recognizing the files, and When Lightroom tries to do the same the files are in use, so it can not generate Previews/Thumbnails.
Do you get the same result if you Try to Import from Safe Boot?
- It could be that there is some software installed that now also manages during startup, also preventing Lightroom to Generate the Previews.
Have you tested with a new Catalog, do you get the same behavior there?
Also it might be far fetched, but incase you haven't seen it it might help you on the issue:

TS3276 my email has stopped showing on my screen when I go into 'my mail'. I have to go via the internet to get my mail. How do I get back to 'my mail'? to get my mail I have to

My email has stopped showing up on my screen through 'my mail'. To get my mail I have to go via the internet. How can I restor, receiving mail in 'my mail'?

Did you recently make any changes? Change your ISP or upgrade the OS?
Have you set up the Mail app with the settings from your ISP? And then configured it to fetch whatever online web email you have?

My Macbook has stopped showing alternatives for vowels. What to do?

My MacBook has stopped showing alternate vowels when I hold down the key. I frequently need to use German words, so this is a problem. Did I somehow turn this feature off? What can I do to get them back?

Tried that before I posted my original question. It didn't do anything. I honestly don't have a clue what happened.It's always worked before, then all of a sudden it won't, and I didn't do anything to the controls programs before it started doing it.

ICal has stopped showing events for Sundays only in the month view.

iCal has stopped allowing events to be entered or viewed on Sundays from the Month view. If I double click on a date on the month view, for a Sunday, nothing happens on the screen but if I go to the day view there is a default New Event on the day.
If I enter an event from the day view it does not appear on the Sunday in the month view.
On previous Sundays where events already exist I can add a new event from the month view. If I add an event using google calendar from Chrome it appears on the Sunday and then I can add event from the month view.
This just recently started happening.
I am using Mavericks 10.9.1 with iCal Version 7.0 (1835.1).

dutchlab,
Quit Calendar, then try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To find that folder, use Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library, and open the Preferences Folder. Drag the com.apple.iCal.plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart and check Calendar for functionality.

Aperture has stopped showing some, but not all, keywords on photos

I imported some new photos today and noticed that Aperture seems to have stopped displaying some, but not all, of my keywords. I'm noticing this on a large number of my existing photos.
For example, I've selected a photo and the Keywords tab of the Metadata pane lists: Amanda, iPhoto Original, Judy, and Zoo. That appears to be correct. However, the Keywords field in the top of the Metadata pane only shows iPhoto Original, and the only keyword displayed in the grid view is iPhoto Original.
Switching to a different metadata display does not help, nor does rebuilding the library. Reassigning the keywords seems to help, but that's not really an option for > 7,000 photos.
Anyone know why this is happening? Can I fix this?

PowerMac Dual G5 2.0 Mac OS X (10.4.7) Aperture 1.1.2

After poking around with BBEdit in my Aperture library, I think I see the problem. I chose a photo that Aperture won't display all the keywords and re-added them. I then compared all the files in the library for that photo with the same files in a backup library I had set aside.
It appears that at some point Aperture got the IPTC keywords out of sync with the actual keywords on the photos. Looking at the Version-1.apversion file (which is actually a .plist file), I can see that both copies have the same keywords on them (called tags in the plist), but the IPTCProperties.keywords summary does not reflect all the tags actually on the photo. Aperture appears to just display the keywords stored in the IPTC keyword summary instead of checking to see what keywords the photo actually has.
So, the keywords are still there, but the summary that Aperture displays is wrong and a library rebuild doesn't appear to rebuild the keyword summary.
My options at this point appear to be either re-apply all my keywords or write a tool to fix it for me (I guess being a developer has it's perks). I'll definitely be filing a bug on this...

ITunes has stopped showing more than 1 Notification

I have iTunes set to show 20 Recent Items in Notification Centre, but recently it only ever shows the latest one.

HI RODA80,
Welcome to the HP support forums. I understand that when you are printing a multiple page document on your Officejet Pro 8500a that only the first 2 pages print.
To better understand the issue would you please provide some further information:
1)    What operating system are you using (Windows 7, Mac 10.8, or Windows 8, etc)?
2)    Is this happening for all multiple page documents or just one?
3)    Has a default of only printing the first 2 pages been accidentally set?
Thank you.
Regards,
Happytohelp01

Time machine has stopped showing backups

Time machine used to show backups back to when the machine was new in November. Now it has suddenly begun to show only today/now.
Regardless of which finder window I have opened, it always goes to 'computer' and shows the external hard drive, 'macintosh HD' and 'network' icons.
If I close time machine and open up the backups on my external hard drive, all the time machine backups are there. What IS going on?!

Does this fix help?

If it doesn't make sure that the connections to your Time Machine disk are solid. You could also try resetting the PRAM.

TS1410 iPod has stopped showing up on Mac in Finder or desktop and iTunes.

cord is connected. I rebooted. it shows up in disk utility. have had this iPod for 5 years, no problem. not sure what changed. Worked 2 days ago.
suggestions welcome. thanks.

Like the iPhone, I don't think the iPod touch has an "Enable disk use" mode. So it will not appear in Finder or on the Desktop.

Cs6 has stopped showing images in window unless it is dragged

I've been using this program for almost a year now. Last night it started acting up. I will open an image and see that the tab with the filename and info shows up, but the image is not displayed. If I select the window border so I can move it around it will display the image. Let go the mouse button and the window goes back to the background color.
FYI, the navigoatr window shows the image properly.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software but that has not changed anything.
Any ideas?

Sounds like a GPU issue; and possibly one involving your monitor color profile.
I say that because Photoshop temporarily switches to CPU-based color-management and GDI display calls when moving a window.
Have you installed a system update since it worked?
It's possible, I suppose that a preferences reset might help. If you're desperate and need to take that step, it can be done like this: Press and hold Command - Shift - Option simultaneously (or Control - Shift - Alt if on a PC) immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set. If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.

System stopped showing accents

I don't know what happened to my mac os but now many apps like iTunes, firefox handles in a wrong way with accent.
I'm from Brazil and here we use many accents like " ˜,´, and ˆ.
A week ago my mac os was showing words and names of music in itunes with corrected accent like "nada não" ,"é a vida"and now these names and texts on webpages are showing things like "nada n„o" .. not all but many characters are rendered on the wrong way.. What happened and what I need to do? anyone knows?

Hi, Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.

IPhone 4S has stopped showing up in iTunes devices, but does show in iPhoto?

Recently had permission issues with i7 27" Mac running newest mavericks (10.9.5). After fixing permissions my iPhone 4S no longer shows up in iTunes, but I still can see it as a device in my Apple iTunes acct. and it does show (and upload photos) to iPhoto. I'm stumped. Have reset Location and Network settings on phone, computer asks to Trust device and I press Trust, but it still does not show. Tried several USB cords, but they all work with iPhoto, but still no device in iTunes.
A little help would be appreciated!

Hello there, stanphoto.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some great and practical steps for troubleshooting your iOS device not being recognized in iTunes for OS X:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
If you haven't connected your iOS device to this computer before, unlock the device and tap Trust. Learn more about the Trust This Computer alert.
Restart your iOS device.
Restart your Mac.
Make sure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
Check USB connections. iOS devices need USB 2.0 to work properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, check the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Try another USB cable.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

IPod has stopped showing videos

I downloaded a new TV show to my iTunes account and plugged in my iPod to transfer the file. Unfortunately, my daughter shut off the computer before the transfer was complete (the "Do Not Disconnect" icon was still flashing).
Now when I try to view any video on my iPod, the machine vibrates, shows the volume indicator, and the "play" arrow in the upper left-hand corner for about 10 seconds. Then it defaults back to the TV Show menu.
The screen displays all menus perfectly. I've tried reloading the iTunes and iPod software, but that hasn't helped. Any insights are welcome!

IPhoto's 'Manage my Places' has stopped showing map and pins!!!?

I am using iPhoto '11 version 9.2.3.
Recently I stupidly decided to undertake the task of adding location info to all of my extensive library, spanning approx 15 years and a ridiculous amount of individual locations.
Anyway this task will now eat away at me until i have completed it, (or something similarly unnecesary takes over)
So, i've been at it for a few weeks now, but all of a sudden today (haven't been on it for a few days so may have started a little while back) i am now unable to edit the size of the 'vicinity' around a pin.
I am selecting 'Manage my Places' tool from the 'Window' menu at the top of the screen as i was before. But now, when the list of my places comes up, to the right, there is no longer a map with the pins from the hilighted 'place'.... it is just grey as the pic below shows.....
This is now hugely frustrating for me, as you can imagine. Does anyone know anything about this? or are having the same issue?
Thanks in advance for anticipated response.....

@MacFishy,
I had the same problem with IPhoto '09 8.1.2 The maps in Places disappeared on June 2nd.
I was able to fix Places by DOWNLOADING SAFARI and RE-INSTALLING.
A Best Buy Geek Squad tech fixed my Places on June 3rd. He told me the problem was with Safari, not IPhoto. However, I don't know what he did to fix the problem. (He could not have re-installed Safari without me knowing)
Unfortunately, the maps disappeared a week later. I used the Geek Squad again, but could not contact the same tech. Several techs tried, but could not fix Places. The last tech directed me to Apple.com.
I was able to restore the maps for the individual pictures from discussions on Apple.com by turning the WiFi off and on. The large world map did not return.
On June 24th, I went to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store. Interestingly they were unaware of the Places problems. When I mention that a tech said the problem was Safari, not IPhoto, he suggested that I try downloading Safari and re-installing. Well that worked! So far it is still okay.
I hope others will find this helpful,
Peggy
