[Solved] Uvesafb & Nvidia framebuffer problems after June 2012 update.

The subject pretty much says it all, I'm really not sure what in the world happened. It worked GREAT since I installed it, but after I updated the system a few days ago, my monitor shows it being out of an acceptable resolution range.
It's strange, because before I was able to see my native resolution (which is 1680x1050) when using:
$ cat /sys/bus/platform/drivers/uvesafb/uvesafb.0/vbe_modes
but now it's at 1600x1200, which obviously doesn't work. I tried looking up any problems that people may or may not have had in the past two months with uvesafb on google, but I couldn't find a thing.
Any potential input, suggestions, or thoughts would be incredibly helpful. Thanks!

I thought that at first, so I went and checked, but everything was perfectly fine. I'm going to go with what x33a pointed out:

It seems more logical that this is the problem. I'm guessing that there is no work around?
Yes, if it is due to the reason i mentioned, then there is no workaround for that unfortunately.

Problem after June 2013 Update

Hi,
I updated the new software on June 26, 2013, still android 4.1.2. My mobile data usage disable every now and then. So no mobile data, I have to go to setting and check mark mobile data. It happen so frequently and it is really annoying.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.

Hello uspeed,
Thank you for reaching out. We certainly want your device to be working properly. With the latest update the software still remained at 4.1.2, but did resolve issues from the previous update. Haven't seen any previous issues with mobile data toggle disabling. Have you tried doing a factory reset or putting phone in safe mode to isolate the problem? Let us know if either of those issues work or we can proceed with other options.
Thank you,

Early iMac (not Lion eligible), does my mobile me email address cease to work after June, 2012? Can one create an iCloud email address?

Cannot update to Lion on this early intel iMac. Now I find out I cannot move mail, contacts to iCloud. My question is, will my mobile me email address continue to work after June, 2012? Can one create an iCloud email address to use with iPhone and iPad?

If you own a iOS5 idevice like a ipod touch you are eligible to use icloud. This will preserve your current Email and Adress Book data after MobileMe dies next year.
Else you would need to purchase a Lion capable Mac or set up a Vista/Win7 PC with office2007/10 to use icloud.

What happens to family account members after June 2012?

Hi
I have a MobileMe Family Account which presently has two family members plus me using it. What will happen to their accounts after June 2012? Will they lose their account, do they have to setup their own soonest or will it automaticallt be converted?
Thanks
Herbert

The master account and each sub-account can be converted individually at http://me.com/move whereupon they will become individual iCloud accounts, completely independent of each other.
If doesn't matter which order you do this in; obviously if you migrate the masater account you can no longer administer the sub-accounts but they will continue to work.
Apple's documentation is confusingly worded and has led somen people to think they have to delete the sub-accounts first: do not do this.
Any MobileMe account which is not migrated by June 30th will disappear.

Wifi problem after.4.3 update on xperia z

Hi all,
After updating my Xperia Z (C6603) to build number 10.4.1.B.0.101 I've been having connection issues with every Wi-Fi network.
I've checked the forum but I only found problems about people having Wi-Fi issues with their smartwatch, I do not own a smart watch this is just a general networking issues.
Here's the problem in detail:
When having no Wi-Fi switched on while booting the phone the phone will start without any issues, I will receive my 3G/4G signal and I can browse, e-mail, everything.
Once I switch on Wi-Fi it will start connecting to previously stored Wi-Fi access points but will not connect. Eventually it says that there was a problem with connecting, even though this will take several minutes.
I can go into the Wi-Fi settings, select a different Wi-Fi network (if it is in range) and press connect, however the settings app will freeze at that point and eventually I'll get a notification that the settings app has stopped working.
I have found a "work-around": I switch the Wi-Fi to on, power off the phone and power on again. Now the Wi-Fi connection immediately powers on without an issue once the phone has completely booted, it also will connect to the default Wi-Fi connection that is in range. A different issue appears however once I move out of Wi-Fi range, it will no longer pick up my 3G/4G signal. It is also impossible to switch off Wi-Fi or switch Wi-Fi network connections without rebooting the phone.
As I said before this happened to me after updating to version 10.4.1.B.0.101 after having it received through OTA update. I do not have root access on my phone either so this can't be it.
Is there anyone experiencing the same issues? Is this somehow related to the issues people are experiencing with their smart watch connections (as seen in this topic: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Software-Updates/wifi-problem-after-4-3-update-on-xperia-z/td-p/490591...
If there's anyone who is experiencing the same issues, or has found a fix for this I'd gladly hear from you.
Regards,
Danny

Will iweb continue to work with other web host after june 2012

will iweb continue to work with other web host after june 2012

as long as osx supports it, iweb should work beyond june 2012 as an app by itself.
however, the some of the currently published code will break when mme servers are to shut down; unless apple comes up with a patches by then.
most of mme features can be replaced and fully implemented on other host servers.
Password protection
can be implemented with apache server.

Problems After Latest Security Update From March 10, 2015

Is anyone having problems after the latest security update from March 10th?
First my screen went from 16:9 to 4:3 and the resolution turned into a blocky 800 x 600. I managed to find a program
online to correct this problem called SwitchResX. It's unfortunately a pay program for 14 Euro. Here's the link
in case anyone needs it http://www.madrau.com/index.html
Now some alias icons in my dock have disappeared, but are kinda visible when I run my mouse over them, their
names pop up, but have no icons in the dock.
Sometime booting up is clumsy with a lot of hang time and I have to restart my Mac Mini manually by pressing
the button in the back to get a clean bootup to my desktop screen.
Could Apple do a fix real soon for this Security Update blunder?
Any help would be appreciated.

I too experienced problems with the keyboard and mouse on this G5, starting about a week ago when I installed the Java Release 6 and QuickTime 7.3.1 updates. The two symptoms I noticed most were slow, jerky scrolling through topic lists in MT-NewsWatcher (using the arrow keys) and difficulty with selecting text with the mouse in Safari (the selection being anchored several characters away from where I’d begin a click-&-drag).
The latest patch, Security Update 2007-009 (PowerPC) v1.1, seems to have solved the problems for me.

Network problem after new OSX update download

Greetings!
I've had a new (late 06) Intel 24" iMac networked wirelessly to my older iMac/cable modem/D-Link router very successfully since October. No problems and seamless set-up through the D-Link online wizard software.
Saturday I noticed an OSX upgrade to 10.4.8 (211mg) and went ahead and did the download on the wireless (Intel) iMac.
Upon restart, however, I have not been able to reconnect to my network. Airport is ON, but choosing my network name returns an error message. I have also attempted to reboot both cable modem and router, and reentered the D-Link wizard to both doublecheck the old network, and set up a new network, but saving these settings seems to fail by not recognizing the device, the router.
One of the error messages (on the wireless iMac) claims that my "settings have been changed by another application" (or to that effect) but does not give any clue as to how to determine what or where.
Also, since attempting to start from scrtch with the router, I no longer seem to get a full signal from the airport -- in Internet Connect, I no longer see a nice row of blue signal lights.
As you may be able to tell, I am new to networking, and the D-Link setup had helped make it simple -- tht is, I bumbled my way through it and was pleased with how well it worked. Now, after the OS update, not having the network is annoying -- and potentilly disastrous, as I need this machine online by Saturday.
Anyone able to give me a gentle hand, or nudge in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!
Bill

Hi again,
Sorry, BDAqua, I didn't see your note. I don't quite understand the last line of your suggestion -- a number greater than the number of CPUs? Not sure what you mean...
Phil, thanks for your note, too.
I believe the answer to your first question is 802.11g -- this is what it was set to.
After trying again to connect, using my old passwords, I was able to see the blue signal strength barss, and the Airport icon flashed on and off a few times, but ultimately the connection attempt failed again every time I tried it.
At this point, I'm no longer confident that my router is sending out a recognizable signal -- is this possible?
Also, in the dialog box in which available networks are usually shown (which has not happened since my original connection in October), today I was faced with a choice I hadn't seen before: 2WIRE736 -- is this likely to be someone else's network (a neighbor's)? I was wondering -- I'd never seen that one before. However, my own network names do not show up for choosing, and when I use Internet Connect to request them (and add WPA Personal and passwords), the connection appears to fail immediately.
At this point, should I attempt an OSX reinstall? Or has something I described made some sense for you?
Again, still very appreciative of all your help and patience with my ignorance.
Bill

Xfce shortcut problems after today's updates

Xfce shortcuts defined in keyboard settings doesn't work at all, even the default ones like alt+f2. They were still working in the morning, but they stopped after today's updates. I think it has something to do with kbd package, but I can't honestly say.
Anyone experiencing something similar?

Most probably you need to logof, go into the console and wipe anything related to xfce on your home folder and start xfce again. Its a pain to get everything as you want again but at least you avoid problems like the one you have now.
You may also see a problem with the icons, just pull tango-icon-theme and all will be well.

Printing problems after installing Security Update 2015-002

After installing Security Update 2015-002 on three separate computers on two different WiFi networks, printers on the network are losing their connections to the computers that can print to them. We have experienced this on a network running a Canon printer and an HP printer - both have disappeared on the network although the printer suggests it is still connected to the network. The same thing has happened on a separate network I manage with a single HP printer on that network. I have tried removing the printers, resetting the printers etc. Nothing is working. I can get one print out of a printer when I turn the printer off and then on. Three minutes later the printer is no longer connected to the computer - although still connected to the network. Please Help.

I think I have figured out that it is in fact the Apple Extreme Base Station that is losing the printer. It is very odd because the printer is connected to the Wifi. My computer is connected to the WiFi and connecting to the internet. The Router for the internet can see the printer. An Apple Extreme is then connected via a network cable in Bridge mode to the router. When I turned the power off the The Apple Extreme and then restored power it all worked. was still working this morning, but again this afternoon I needed to reboot Apple Extreme. It is quite strange that this is happening on two different Networks in different parts of the country at the same time. Maybe the Security Update is somehow affecting/blocking communication with the printer? I just don't know enough. These networks have been up and running with the same printers and computers for years with zero problems - all of a sudden we have the same problem on both Networks.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

Airport Problems after "AirPort Extreme Update 2008-001" (1.0)?

I recently installed the update and have been unable to connect to my wireless network at home ever since. The airport detects my router and asks if I would like to join the network, but after I click yes, it says "there's an error in connecting", and thus no connection is made.
I can, however, get internet connection through ethernet from my router.
I can't be totally sure the update is the cause of the problem, but I haven't downloaded or installed anything else recently, and all other pc's wireless connections work fine with my router. I also haven't tried connecting through other wireless networks, so I'm not sure if the problem is exclusive to my router.
Has anyone else had similar problems after the update?
Also, does anyone know the default settings for the airport? I'm wondering maybe I have altered settings that's causing this problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated

I have the same problem but I have not found a fix.

Finder(?) problem after installing security update 2008-008

I hope someone can help with this problem:
After I installed Security update 2008-008 the finder(?) has begun to behave irratically.
Whenever the mousepad is clicked, the dock slides off to the left and the click is not registered by whichever application I am in. Mostly menus are affected. I now have to click the application and menu item several times before the click is registered.
Safari is particularly badly affected with the pointer jumping around the screen when trying to copy an url (dock keeps sliding to the left), page back/forward doesn't work - url links within web pages are not recognised. Furthermore, when using yahoo mail, menus like 'send' and 'save' are not recognised.
Any suggestions how to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated!
Andrew

HI Andrew,
This is most likely caused by some 3rd part APP or kext that is now out of date.
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then test your problem there.
Now reboot in regular mode, if the problem didn't happen in Safe Mode, but does in Regular mode, See if there is anything relevant in...

/Library/StartupItems

Also look in in Your Accounts Pref Pane Login Items window.
