Something messy is going on with my finder...

My finder is acting weird when I drag an application into it. I made a quick video for you so I don't have to explain it so here:

any ideas would be much appreciated thanks a lot.

DS_Store is a hidden file. Every folder has one. I do not know if Onyx deletes these. Here is there site to check for yourself:

Something weird is going on with Compressor 4 Version 185673

Something weird is going on with Compressor 4 (v185673).
I've just completed a 1.5hr edit in FCP X (v10.0.1) and chose to send it to compressor so I can encode my MPEG-2 files.
It takes approximately 5min for compressor to open and show the job to start with!
I then drag the MPEG-2 preset and click on it, the spinning ball comes up and takes approximately 10min before compressor reacts...!
Wondering if anyone else is having the same experiencing?

MSI 870-G45 - something odd is going on with MSI

Ok, this is convoluted but bear with me.
I bought the MSI 870-G45 (MS-7599 v2.x) motherboard from Newegg. Newegg listed the chipset as the AMD 870. However, when I received the motherboard, the manual states that the chipset is actually the RX 780 (a.k.a. AMD 770 a chip from 2007/08!), I checked in CPU-Z and confirmed this. I built a rig with this motherboard on 8/15/2010.
I have been having all sorts of issues. These include memory errors when running memtest86+ or HCI memtest.
Today I come on to the MSI website to do some research on the motherboard and I see that the MSI 870-G45 is now listed as a "NEW" product and the chipset is now the AMD 870, as I originally thought. In fact, MSI has two versions of the 870-G45, depending on what link you visit. See the two links below:
http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=prodmbspec&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=&cat3_no=&prod_no=2070
http://us.msi.com/index.php?func=prodmbspec&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=171&cat3_no=&prod_no=2019#menu
The version I ended up with is the one in the first link.
Now, I have the AMD Athlon II X4 635. The product info page at AMD states that the voltages should be between .85v and 1.25v. ( http://products.amd.com/en-gb/DesktopCPUDetail.aspx?id=625 ) However, even though the BIOS of this motherboard (the version with the 770 chipset, which is the one I got) supports this CPU, the "Auto" CPU voltage setting sets the voltage at ~1.35v - above the specs specified by AMD! Wondering if this might also be a cause of the difficulties I am having, I lowered it to 1.12. Running some more tests to see if this has improved stability.
So, two versions of one motherboard, with confusing numbering and Auto voltage that exceeds the specs from the CPU manufacturer. What the heck is going on?
Another issue is that the manual states on page 2-6 (21 on the PDF) states that to be in dual channel mode, I need to put my two DIMM cards in the slots DIMM1 and DIMM2. However, further down the page under the heading "Important", it states:
In Dual-Channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the same type
and density in different channel DIMM slots.
This seems to be contradictory, but it is probably just me. Does it mean I install the two DIMMs in DIMM1 and DIMM2 or DIMM1 and DIMM3?

Thank you both for your input. I mistakenly thought this was run by MSI. Feel stupid. But since you were so kind to respond, I'll post my full system specs as you suggested:
AMD Athlon II X4 635 CPU
MSI 870-G45 AM3 Motherboard
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ)
GIGABYTE 1GB GeForce GTX 460
SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM
ASUS DRW-24B1ST SATA 24X DVD Burner
OCZ ModXStream Pro OCZ600MXSP 600W ( +3.3V@25A, +5V@25A, +12V1@25A, +12V2@25A, [email protected], [email protected] )
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
Also just discovered that there are two versions of my CPU (C2 and C3 revisions). Perhaps that is where some of the confusion regarding voltages lie. Again, feel stupid.
Issues in a nutshell:
Computer ran fine for about 10 days. Then booted up a game and got crazy artifacts everywhere. Windows 7 also showed some artifacts when I went back to desktop. OS never crashed though. Windows has never crashed. Because of this, I suspected that my GPU went bad. Ran OCCT GPU test, Furmark and ATI tool and have artifacts on all three. Artifacts appear immediately upon starting test, so I don't think it is temperature related. Temp of GPU is under 40 C idle and highest under load is 77 C, which falls in line with what I read in reviews for card.
Now, before RMAing by video card with Newegg, I decided to download memtest86+ and run it. Just a hunch. I got an error on the first pass in test 2. However, I continued to run the test and saw no more errors. Ran the test again overnight for hours and could not recreate error. Thinking I may have gotten a false positive, I ran HCI Memtest (this one runs in Windows) and ran it for a few hours. That reported multiple errors as well. Now I am trying to run the test with one DIMM at a time to see if I can isolate which stick it is.
So I guess my questions are:
* What are the chances that I got a bad GPU and bad RAM from Newegg? Anything is possible but I thought that getting two lemons was unlikely, and when I then saw the discrepancies in the motherboard info on MSIs website I started to wonder.
* Could bad DRAM have any effect on GPU - as in displaying artifacts. Or would this strictly be a GPU issue?
* A member at another forum warned against leaving voltage settings in BIOS at Auto. This is what led me to look up the specs at AMDs website. What do you think about this recommendation.
Sorry if I came off a little harsh, I thought I was addressing MSI the company and was a bit miffed by two different versions of a board and with the fact that newegg was improperly stating the specs.
I appreciate any help you can give.

TS3376 what is going on with the find my iphone app,i use IOS 6.1.1 and i have updated the find my iphone app and now i cant locate my device

some help or some explanation would be nice because i rly need this app and now after the update im not able to locate my device

Not sure if it would help or not, but if you haven't already done so, some things you could try are:
Tap Sign Out on the top right of the app, then sign back in
Force close the app by going to the home screen, double-tapping the home button, locating the app in the list at the bottom, tapping and holding the app until it wiggles, tapping to close it, then tapping the home button again.
Go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, turn Find My iPhone off, the after a minute or so, turn it back on.

Something wear is going on with my iPod

Hello!
I didn't know where else to post, so I'm going to post it here.
Basicly problem is that I can't get my iPod running at all. The weard thing is that it's working now and than. Here is how things developed:
I was using it like regulary, until one day, all my music was gone. iPod wasn't responding at all, so I just kept it in a drawer. Couple of days ago I've tried to reconnect it to iTunes. Didn't work, not only iTunes, half of my computer frozen. When I disconnected it from USB cable, everything was working fine. I can't remember how, but somehow I formated it. Installed new iTunes and after 1 hour, it showed iPod connected. With formating, there wasn't anything on iPod, so I chose to update the system, setting things right on this thingie. After update, I had to plug it on adapter due to low battery.
Next day I connected it to comp and again needed app. 1 hour for iTunes to recognise it. I synced it and than tried to add some music to it. Added songs to library and started syncing. Somewhere at the middle it showed an error about song being read-only and than iTunes froze. Since than, my computer doesn't even recognise this iPod anymore.
Any suggestion what to do since I've tried everything and it seems to be futile. I doubt disc went to ****, otherwise it wouldn't be formating and updating.
Thanks in advance.
Flesh

Ok tried it again today: iTunes asked me to restore iPod. Tried it once, but it didn't work. So I formated it and than restored it with iTunes. After almost fully restoring it, iTunes asked me to connect it to other power source to finish the restoring process. When I do, folder icon with an exclamation point shows and doesn't do anything.

Something weird is going on with my iPhoto library!

Help! I tried to import a photo from my scanner and it didn't work. The only problem now is that each time I start up iPhoto I get a message...
"A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported. Would you like to import it?"
Whether I choose Yes or No I get the following message...
"Unreadable files: 1. The following file could not be imported." It then puts the file in a iPhoto recovered photos folder in my shared area.
This on its own wouldn't be a problem (just a nuisance) but since then I have been unable to import photos from anywhere else into iPhoto. When I try I get a different message that says...
"Unreadable files: 6. The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).
I'm pretty sure the files are fine I can copy them to the computer and view them as jpegs but I can't get them into iPhoto.
Any ideas?

Yes that worked. I also realised that I'd tried to scan as another user on the Mac, so I logged in as that user and got rid of the offending photo.
So now I'm back in the original user and my Import folder is at the desktop and I can import new photos from my SD card...hooray! However when I try to move the import folder back to the iPhoto library I get the original error when trying to import new stuff. Am I stuck with my Import folder on the desktop? (Not a big deal if I am, just wondering)
Thank you!

Something wiered is going on with my mac please read

ok guys i have no clue but my mac was working perfectly but now this is the 3rd time that out of nowhere, my mac simply restarts, i dont get the kernel panic screen or anything , my mac just simply restarts, what is wrong with it? the only new thing i installed is that i updated itunes to itunes 7.5 and i belive thats when the problem started, just 2 minutes ago i pluged my iphone to the dock to charge it, itunes loaded up because it automaticlly does that when i plug in my iphone and ban my imac restarted, so i do belive its itunes, how can i uninstall itunes so that i can reinstall an older version of itunes which i had before ? i know where to get the old itunes version can u just tell me how to uninstall itunes please? i checked with disk utility, the disk returned no errors aswell as the permission check.

Software conflicts should not cause a forced restart. Have you checked your power cord make sure it's plugged in securely both on the back of the iMac and at the wall socket? Shut down your computer before you check the power cord. If it passed the Disk Verification then that's not the problem and Disk Warrior will not fix it. Have you installed any third party RAM recently? You could try running Apple Hardware Test. Run the extended test.

My 822 now says, "ERROR: Unable to find bootable option. Press any key to shut down." Just happened after my phone froze. Everything I've searched says to replace the phone. I have no phone in or out, no alarm....what is going on with this? I see others

Just got the same error message today. My phone went to the black screen of death with the error message at the top. Contacted Verizon via chat. Was online for 1 hour and 15 minutes only to find out that nothing could be done which I could have told them based upon what I had read on this site. Of course my phone is out of warranty since I have had it for 1 1/2 years and I am not eligible for an upgrade. How convenient! I was told to contact Nokia which I did and they gave me a download to try to reset everything. It looked like it was working but after almost 3 hours it got to the end and nothing happened. It just froze even though it said it was done. I rebooted the phone and am back at the same black screen of death. Guess I have to buy a used phone and then will have to reconsider whether or not to stay with Verizon going forward. I have not had any issues with the phone in the past - keep it in an otter box, never dropped, never got wet, etc. But all of a sudden it goes haywire like this that seems like either a hardware or software problem but something completely out of my control and all I get is sorry, you're out of warranty!

As a conseqience I have lost files despite saving them in the usual way......God knows where they are! In the middle of all this I am suddenly asked for my Mobile Me password,,,,,in Word??? What is going on? Help!

Update to latest patched version that no longer relies on Rosetta and PowerPC
Visit www.RoaringApps.com for a list and table of what version is supported, can be updated and which are not.
A year ago this was news.
Hopefully people kept a boot drive with the old OS so they could dual boot for a month or two whiile sorting out the changes and updates.

No they do not and no it is not affecting a large portion of the user community.
If it is an actual hardware issue, the only fix is to repair or replace the hardware.
If it is a software issue, restoring as new will fix it.

What is going on with mobile me? All I get is the find iphone screen and I can't switch apps to read mail.

What is going on with mobile me? All I get is the find iphone screen and I can't switch apps to read mail.

MobileMe is working partially, Apple says some users can't access to the web-apps (Mail, Calendar, etc.). In my case is working fine in my iPhone, in Outlook 2010, and I can only access the Mail app (Calendar and other functions are not working!).
Hope this gets fixed soon

What's going on with U-Verse in South Miami

For the past two months, we have been getting dropped signals (bundled U-Verse and including landline, mobile phone, television and internet) sometimes three times a day. I have had phone calls drop while speaking to my boss, (I work from home) favourite shows will all of a sudden give us that no service screen, which means we lose portions of the dialogue, and the internet stops working. I have not dared to call ATT as frankly the only solution that Customer Service seems to know is "Oh it must be your RG that needs changing." Well that's a load of rubbish since if it's the RG then ATT have some serious problems as I have spoken to at least six people that I know that also have U-Verse and they are all having the same problem, but kept thinking it was just them.
The internet signal has also got painfully slow and since we pay a juicy bill of $315 dollars a month and subscribe to the best package that U-Verse has to offer, I do not expect to have these constant problems. Nobody is perfect, and a little issue once in a while is acceptable, but not two to three times day! In addition... we receive an electronic bill and this has been a very hectic month for me, so realising that today was the 12th and I know that the bill is usually due sometime around this time of the month, and not having received a bill, I went online to investigate. Sure enough - on login to the payment page, it said "past due!" Well send me a bill and I will pay it. I just don't know what is going on with U-Verse but it is very distressing. I believe the saying is that they have, "Gone to ** in a handbasket." On a positive note - we can now apparently fast forward and rewind On-Demand TV shows, and which made no sense before that this feature was unavailable. However... this does not make up for the recent poor service and non-arrival of my electronic monthly bill, ( will have to go back to paper - not cool) and then having the nerve to tell me "past due."
[Per Guidelines: Keep it Relevant and Appropriate].

Chris, As explained, and to be honest I am usually very long-winded and detailed in my explanations because readers miss things, as you might have done in this case. It is not my problem alone. Whenever we have a problem with any utility or especially in the case of ATT services, I always check with anyone that I know that uses the service and over a broad area, not just in my street but anyone I know in an approximate 8 - 10 mile area, to see if our issues are isolated just to us. If they are, then I know that it is most likely a piece of equipment we are using. In this situation, as there have been in others, every single person that I spoke to is experiencing the same situation. And again - this is why I said that I have thrown up my hands in exasperation and usually get another family member to call customer service if there is a problem, as I know exactly what they are going to tell me. "Let us check your line - (you then spend 45 minutes on the phone with them) No... everything seems fine, it must be your RG, you need to buy a new one." Mea culpa - I have no patience or time for scripted c.s. reps. Two years ago, we had a lightening strike that literally struck the ATT box next door. The wires in all the boxes on the street (including the ones in our yard) were fused and black when the box was opened. And yet... when one of my neighbours (who apparently did not connect the lightening strike with the loss of service - sigh... what can I say...) called ATT, they got the same response. "No, we don't see any problems here, it must be your RG." Com'n! It was a lightening strike! And on an aside - the new cable is now still hanging from my backyard fence as they were supposed to come back to bury it. Two years ago... So the dear space-cadet neighbours, paid for a new RG, hooked it up to find there was no reception (ya think?) and to then find out that theirs was just fine, and now there was the hassle of having to package the new one and take it to the UPS store to ship it back, and which is another frustration, because it is not possible to return it to a local store or office. Unlike yours truly, they apparently did not do their research with other users, even though we had no service for over a week. So - by a process of survey and elimination, it cannot be the RG, unless everyone I spoke with is using the same RG. But there have been quite a few changes that we have noticed recently, ranging from new look menus, to those very beautiful images when first turning on the TV. So is it not entirely possible that in all the changes and tweaking, something else has been affected? Look it happens - but I can never understand why they can't just say,"Sorry, we are working on "upgrades" so we apologise but you might experience these little set-backs for a while until we are through." Why always blame it on the RG? Another way to make more money?

What's going on with my USB drive?

I have a WD MyBook 2tb drive, one of several on my Mac Mini running Mountain Lion, and a few days ago that drive started making scritchy-scratchy sounds like it was being worked really hard when nothing at all was accessing it. That the drive access light isn`t flashing while this is going on is all the more puzzling.
So it has to be the OS doing something on it I would think, and doing a lot of it for some reason or another, but I have no clue how to find out what, or why. Okay, so the disk could be failing, and I`ve got it all backed up so if it goes I just go buy another disk, but this disk is less than a year old, and I have a WD 500gb disk that`s nearly 7 years old and it`s still going strong. Then too, I`ve run Disk Utility on it several times and it give the drive a clean bill of health, so WHAT????
I`ve tried using Terminal to find out what`s going on with that disk, but being a total idiot when it comes to Unix I`ve little idea how to look at that particular disk, and try as I might I cannot find anything online anywhere that tells me how.
So far I`ve tried iosnoop, which gets me a lot of seemingly bad messages that scroll endlessly up the screen saying things like:
dtrace: error on enabled probe ID 4 (ID 1031: io:mach_kernel:buf_strategy:start): invalid user access in action #3 at DIF offset 0
and this launchd stuff:
launchd ??/<unknown (NULL v_parent)>/<unknown (NULL v_name)>
This stuff just goes on and on and on and on... forever and never stops.
What does it all mean???? Is the drive dying on me? What if I reformat it? Would this stuff stop?

Is this a one-time occurence, or is it continuous?
Does the drive have a separate power source or is it bus powered by the Mini?

What is going on with the FATAL error message????

What is going on with the FATAL error message????

Same issue, since last night. Can't sign in to iTunes, download apps, or updates to apps on any device. I have iPhone 4S, iPad mini, MacBook Pro. East coast, writing this at 1:21pm EST. Changing password doesn't work. I can't log in with my iCloud address either. I have however noticed at least that if I enter the wrong password, I just get the incorrect password message. Using the right password gets the FATAL:: message every time.
I have my devices set to UK for the region even though I am in the US. Though that might have something to do with it so I switched to US- no change, same problem.
I agree that acknowledgement via their system status would be appropriate. Irritating that they are not at least publicly acknowledging there is a problem. I would feel much less concerned if I knew that they were aware and working on it. Can't find a support number anywhere but I did send a brief message via their help/contact page.

Something messy is going on with my finder...
