Something wrong with pulseaudio after update

Hi,
After upgrading my packages pulseaudio won't work anymore.
I can still open alsamixer and play sound purely on alsa when I delete the entries in /etc/asound.conf
I'm really close to abandoning PA. Almost every update gives me problems...

The reason the number changed is because it's incompatible with the old version somehow. If you run into one of those incompatibilities, it will break something, and it might happen a long time later, once you've long forgotten you made the link. Then nobody will be able to figure out what's wrong, and you'll be very unhappy.

  • Is there something wrong with the new update that keeps disconnecting my internet from my iPod touch 5g?

    My home wifi has been disconnected from my iPod touch once again. It happened once yesterday morning and again this morning. After reattempting to connect again and again to the internet yesterday, it finally worked. But now I have the same problem.
    I mean, my laptop has no internet connection issues whatsoever. So, I know it's not my internet's fault. And my iPod is practically brand new as well, so I'm assuming there's nothing wrong with it. Therefore, I'm not intending to bring it into the Apple store to have it checked out.
    My last guess is that maybe it's some kind of glitch with the latest update? Are any other iPod touch 5g users who are experiencing the same problem?

    You are not giving us enough information.  A singe move can easiy take more than one GB.  Ehne you click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes on the computer a colored bargraph will show the discribution of storage used on the iPod.  What does that show?  If the "other" category is greater than about 1 GB you can restore yu iPod, sometimes to factory defaults/new iPod is required, to get it to its normal of about 1/2 GB.

  • Is there something wrong with my After Effects...??

    I'm trying to render out something which for the second time is taking an unreasonable ammount of time to render.It's a minute and a half sequence which just involves Alpha Channels and I'm told it's going to take 90 hours to render.
    It renders out one frame and then the spinning colour wheel comes on for 5 minutes,during which time I'm told 'After Effects is not responding',then it renders out another frame and then goes back to the spinning colour wheel.

    I see. Did you run tools like OnyX to verify disk integrity and do a little maintenance? This sounds strange indeed, but with Apple's recent track record of screwing around, anything is possible. I'd definitely investigate a little. As a start, run your activity monitor while AE is active. In particular monitor disk performance. I get the suspicion that something is up with that. Also see, if it terminates any processes during render or processes go into endles Wait states. I'd also definitely check Quicktime. It's quite possible it broke with some recent update and thus isn't working properly...

  • Something wrong with maps after loading

    Hi Guys, try to show a Hurghada or Sharm el Shaikh (after Egipt map loading). They don't show plans of this cities and moved their positions in wrong places. Localizations don't cover theirself with area outskirt. Especially on seeshore. Before softupdate (v.20) everything was good.

    If it says your billing info is wrong that means that your credit card issuer is refusing to approve your account. You will have to solve the problem with your bank or credit card company.

  • Is there something wrong with the IOS 6 update?

    Ever since I downloaded the iTunes IOS 6 update on my 2nd-gen iPad, I haven't been able to check my list of purchased apps in the purchased section the iTunes store app. I tried logging out & signing back in and I tried rebooting my iPad, but neither of them worked. Can you please fix the IOS update? Thanks if you and keep up the incredible work!

    Never mind, there's definitely something wrong with the IOS 6 update. Sometimes the App Store doesn't show that an app has been purchased & it only shows the price of the app. Other times, it doesn't show that an app is currently being downloaded or that it's installed.
    Still though, Apple, you really do need to fix this IOS 6 because the Purchased Apps section won't finish loading & display the ones that have been purchased. Also, you need to improve the App & iTunes gift card payment method because if you use a credit card & then switch back to gift card, it doesn't remember how much leftover money you had before & you can't combine the change from the previously-used ones together into one lump of money.
    32 cents isn't enough to buy anything, not even a $0.99 app. The money is going by without being used and its a waste of money! If it's possible, please fix these two problems. Thanks if you do & keep up the incredible work!!!!!

  • Hi. Whenever I go through one of the menus in firefox, the links remain highlighted after my mouse passes over them. Is there a bug fix for this or is there something wrong with my computer? I am running windows 7 if that helps.

    Hi. Whenever I go through one of the menus in firefox, the links remain highlighted after my mouse passes over them. Is there a bug fix for this or is there something wrong with my computer? I am running windows 7 if that helps. This problem started ever since I upgraded to version 5.

    I have downloaded and used the iPod Reset Utility, alot that did. My current state is iTunes on my XP Home with SP3 sees the iPod. When I drag a song to the iPod, the Sync message appears for about 5 minutes, then the Apple symbol appears. But no song has been transferred to the iPod.
    I tried to tap into the XP iTunes database from my iBook, but although it acted like it would add the XP library to the iBook library, it did not. I've got 19 Gs of songs on the XP. If I have to load each song from its original CD to get it on my iBook I'm going to start looking for some other app or device so that I can listen to my music.
    It is a shame, in the old days, Apple techs use to look at what was going on, now it appears they don't, so they never know they have problems until Apple's profits fall.

    What is going on with Pages after the update?

    Hey George.iD, you wrote on 6 Feb 2014, this:

    What's wrong with it?
    As one thing after more-than a month later on 22 March, Pages _refuses_ to alter the color of text.  How maddening this is:  I select text, I select a crayon, but the text _remains_ black.  < Pages is Incorrigible! :-( >
    [After I vented steam, I feel better  --  until later.  What a cycle!  :-) ]

    Have you attempted an iTunes restore and setting up as a new device? Sometimes battery life issues can be caused by corrupted iOS software.

    Did you purchase the Mac new?
    You have 14 calendar days from the time your items are delivered to initiate a return as noted here.
    Even though you are past the 14 day limit, if it were me, I'd take the Mac back and explain what's going on. Your Mac should work out of the box.

  • Is there something wrong with my battery?

    Hi everyone! I have an Iphone 5 that was newly "remodeled" for tmobile. I was wondering if there was something wrong with my battery after a recent decline in performance. I am updated to the latest iOS and I recently restored all of my settings on my phone in an attempt to increase battery performance, leaving only wifi on location for weather. With my current usage and standby, do I have something to be concerned about? I know some individuals that have my usage and will have a standby time of over a day. Advice and opinions is very much appreciated.

    Usage and Standby the same means that there is an app on your phone that is running continuously. Usually its an app choking on bad data, or trying to send and failing. There are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
    Mail is a common culprit, especially if you have a Microsoft Exchange email account. If you do, go to Settings/mail,contacts,calendar, tap on the Exchange account, and turn off the switches. Then back out of settings and restart the phone (hold HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears). Then turn the switches back on. This clears the mail, contacts and calender queues. It will take a while to resync content, so don't check battery condition until the resync is finished. And its best to do this with a WiFi connection as a lot of data may go by.
    If that doesn't fix it do the same with your iCloud account, and any other Push accounts you may have (Yahoo, gmail, hotmail, AOL).
    Next, look for apps that run in background (most of the apps in the Quick Launch ribbon do not run in background, but a few do - music and video streaming apps, Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo Messenger, Whatsapp, etc). Kill them in the quick launch ribbon by pressing HOME twice to display it, then hold your finger on any app until they all wriggle, then tap the "-" on each one. It won't do any harm to kill them all.
    Note that if you have Google Maps installed and you asked it for directions it won't stop tracking you until you actually kill it in the Quick Launch ribbon.
    good luck and report back!
    BTW, you will see a lot of posts blaming some specific version, now 6.1.4 (because it's the newest). But you will see just as many reports for 6.1.3, 6.1.2, ...5.1,...4.1...3.0, etc. It's nothing wrong with the version (except for 2.1, which had a real bug), it seems to be caused for some people by the upgrade process itself. But there are also many people who encounter this symptom far away in time from any upgrade.
