Superdrive malfunctions on G5, but works fine in new account

My Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-106D superdrive on my G5 2x2 is having problems reading data DVDs (takes a very long time to load data, sometimes doesn't work at all). Also, DVD burns do not work as well as in the past.
I have found that if I create a new account and try the drive, it works fine.
Can anyone tell me what might be going on, or what I might need to do. The drive is brand new. Apple replaced my old one, which was beginning to have the same problems, but this tells me there may be something going on with software.
Thanks
Bill

Thanks for your help I have found, by luck mainly, that turning off the auto-protect feature on Norton Anti-Virus seems to solve the problem, at least for now. The problem, however, could still lie in user preferences, as you say.

Data type change made to schema.xml of comments list which is part of blog site template is not reflecting in the existing site but working fine when new site is created.

Hi,
I have created a blog site with the available site template few days back. Now we have the requirement of having the attachments in the body of the comments section.
So, I updated the schema.xml of the comments list available under ../templates/blog/lists/comments/schema.xml to have rich text for the Body field.
With this change, I created a new site and it was working fine. Change is reflected in the new blog site.
However, this particular change is not reflected in the existing blog site. Any changes made to the schema.xml is not effecting the old blog site.
Can anyone suggest what can be done for the change to be reflected in the old blog site?
Thanks in Advance,
Regards, Keerthi Suryadevara

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add attachments in the body of the comments section.
You can add the the Code inside the Default list pages. For more information, you can refer to:
Enable Attachment in SharePoint Blog post list and display the list Attachments
In addition, you can add an enhanced rich text field to the comment list and remove the body field. Then you can insert files into comments, too.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Superdrive no longer recognizes CD, but works fine with DVD

my Superdrive seems to have a problem recognizing any type of CD media, but works fine with DVD media.
I reinstalled Leopard and still the same problem. I also zapped the NVRAM (this is an Intel 2.0 Ghz Mac Mini w/ 2 GB Ram.
Is there anything else I can do or do I just need to replace the drive?

Typically when this sort of symptom appears, it relates to a hardware failure, either due to a faulty lens, or dirt. You might try a lens cleaner to ensure it is not the latter.
Since this is a 2.0GHz mini, it ought to be still under warranty - if that is the case it would be wise to have Apple, or an approved service provider, check it and undertake any necessary repairs.

People picker is not working for ie11 but working fine for other lower version

i am using sharepoint 2010 and windows authentication
recently i have updated my ie to ie11 and problem goes here.
when i try to select from people picker, there are an unexpected error happened
however when i use other ie version, people picker work fine, what goes wrong?
i have already added my system as trusted site
if there any others thing i miss out?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that People picker is not working for ie11 but working fine for other lower version.
IE 11 is known to have compatibility issues on SharePoint 2010, please make sure to:
first of all, try installing latest update for IE 11 (several compatibility issues were fixed since the first release)
add the site to compatibility view (in IE> Tools> Compatibility view settings> type site name> add)
add the site to trusted sites and set the zone security level to low (in IE> Internet Options> Security> trusted sites> sites>add your site there> ok> custom level> select low> reset> ok)
You can use developer tools (f12) and set browser mode to the version that is most compatible with your environment.

BPEL process fails in SOA (in UNIX), but works fine in SOA (in Windows) env

Hello,
BPEL process fails in SOA (in UNIX), but works fine in SOA (in Windows) environment
Step 1: Build a asynchronous BPEL process which has no extra node. Make and deploy it in 'local windows desktop SOA' server
The BPEL process has three nodes:
a. client - on the left side of the swim lane
b. receiveInput - first node in swim lane (client calls 'receiveInput')
c. callbackClient - second and last node in the swim lane ('callbackClient' calls client)
Step 2: Go to BPEL console and 'Initiate' the BPEL process -> 'Post XML Message'
Step 3: Now, I can see the successfully completed BPEL instance in the BPEL console.
Now,
Step 4: Deploy the same BPEL process (dummy asynchronous) in the SOA server (hosted in unix box)
Step 5: Go to BPEL console and 'Initiate' the BPEL process -> 'Post XML Message'
Step 6: I find that the BPEL instance appears to have ended in error (on the second node i.e. callbackClient )
With the following error message
+<invalidVariables xmlns="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension"><part name="code"><code>9710</code>+
+</part><part name="summary"><summary>Invalid xml document.+
According to the xml schemas, the xml document is invalid. The reason is: Error::cvc-complex-type.2.4.b: The content of element 'DummyBPELProcessProcessResponse' is not complete. One of '{"http://xmlns.oracle.com/DummyBPELProcess":result}' is expected.
Please make sure that the xml document is valid against your schemas.
+</summary>+
+</part></invalidVariables>+
Has anyone faced similar issue as above ?
i.e. process works find in windows environment (local SOA), but fails in SOA server in UNIX environment
Appreciate your help in understanding this issue.
Thanks,
Santhosh

Hello,
The fix to this issue appears to have been as follows:
+<schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified"+
+     elementFormDefault="qualified"+
+     targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/DummyBPELProcess"+
+     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">+
+     <element name="DummyBPELProcessProcessRequest">+
+          <complexType>+
+               <sequence>+
+                    <element name="input" type="string"/>+
+               </sequence>+
+          </complexType>+
+     </element>+
+     <element name="DummyBPELProcessProcessResponse">+
+          <complexType>+
+               <sequence>+
+                    <element name="*:result*" type="string"/>+
+               </sequence>+
+          </complexType>+
+     </element>+
+</schema>+
In DummyBPELProcess.xsd,
modifiying "result" to ":result" appears to have resolved the issue in SOA under unix environment.
If anyone can explain why "result" works in SOA under windows and ":result" works in SOA under unix environment, I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Santhosh

I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My wireless mouse with not scroll in mail but works fine in other applications? Any suggestions?

I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My apple wireless mouse will not scroll in Mail but works fine in other applications.
Any suggestions?

First, see this discussion. If the solution suggested there doesn't work for you, continue.
If you've installed a Mail plugin called "Mail Unread Menu" and you know how to remove it, please do that, then quit and relaunch Mail. Test. Otherwise, see below.
Back up all data.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/Bundles
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
2. Repeat with this line:
/Library/Mail/Bundles
This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

TS2972 First night I was able to watch 2 TV shows (45 min each) with no problems, but thereafter programs will not stream without constant pause to buffer. Weather conditions are ideal and my internet comes from crappy hugesnet, but worked fine the first

First night I was able to watch 2 TV shows (45 min each) with no problems, but thereafter programs will not stream without constant pause to buffer. Weather conditions are ideal and my internet comes from crappy hugesnet, but worked fine the first night.

The speed may have been ok at that time and is too inconsistent/too slow overall. interference may have proven to be more of an issue since as well. If using public DNS that will provide Intermittant results
I'm sure using a hotspot would be fine but it depends on your viewing habits. An HD movie is around 4-5GB. It would also be subject to speed. requirements so best to test to see how it compares.
You would have to check with your Carrier if hotspot it's enabled then just to into your settings and toggle it ON

In your opinion, should I uninstall Firefox if I am installing Waterfox?
Waterfox can coexist peacefully with Waterfox. I have both installed, but never use Firefox any more.
Not only can Waterfox run in 64-bit address space, it also is better optimized during compile time than Firefox. (For obvious reasons; Firefox is compatible with many old systems, Waterfox only needs to be compatible with new 64-bit systems.)
P.S. regarding Chris' advice above; Firefox and Waterfox use the same profile, so if that is actually the problem, then it will occur in both browsers.

Hi,
Any one have this issue?
HP ProBook 5220m (Bios Version F50) Fan not working with battery power but work fine with adapter plugged in.
This issue was found in my replacement motherboard. the original mother do not have this issue.
The origianl mother to be replace is due to can't power on after a power failure recovery. I believe was due to power surge killed the motherboard's power controller circuitry.
Appreciate any one can provide clue for resolving the problem.

My imac feels really hot, but works fine. Should I be worried?

My imac feels really hot, but works fine. Should I be worried?? My son plays a Star Wars game on line that seems to make it become really hot. He says it skips during the game, so he gets out of the game. When I check the computer, everything is fine. Thanks!!

alb,
What you are experiencing is fairly commom. When our grandkids play games on our Mac, that's when things do get pretty warm, especially in the upper left hand corner where the CPU is. The imac does rely heavily on "heat sink" technology instead of high speed, noisy fans to keep things running properly. That being said, be sure to keep the vents that are located on the top back section of the computer screen, clean. This will allow for proper venting. If your son plays computer games long and often, you can keep a small external fan running in back of the Mac. This may be appropriate in the hot Summer, in a non air conditioned environment.

Make sure your hard drive is formatted properly for the operating system installed. Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to determine what it is. You posted to the 10.5 forum, but your signature says you have 10.9. Here is the tip on what formatting supports what operating systems:
