System information when looking for storage info, also finder crashes

Can anyone help please!
My Finder crashes when doing simple tasks. Also, when loking for storage info in system info it crashes. All other system info works ok! Many thanks! New Mountain Lion Installed, problems since then!

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

My wife and i share a computer. when she looks for her info in mycloud my info appears in her account.

my wife and i share a computer. when she looks for her info in her cloud acct on the desktop my info appears in her account. Cannot understand why her info from her phone would appear to be nowhere and mine is in her account. Help us understand this please?

On the shared computer click on System Preferences -> iCloud -> Account Details verify that each individual account is configured correctly. By default, the Apple ID used to install the computer the first time is used for all accounts on the computer, unless it is changed.

My Windows 7 Professional desktop system hard disk got corrupted and I took the opportunity to install an SSD for a new system disk and reinstall Windows. The system is up and running on the SSD, with my old system disk now used for storage as it is still readable. The only Adobe product I have reinstalled so far is Reader XI but I would like to reinstall Elements 8 and Acrobat 9 without taking up more licences as both are also installed on my laptop. Can you point me to the best way to do this? - Thanks

If you have the two allotted activations already and one was lost on the hard drive that failed then you need to contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.

Looking for some info before deciding to install

Normally, I would try to some searching before posting, but I've been pressed for time lately. Anyways, I'm looking for some info about Solaris before deciding to dive into installing it.
1) Can it be installed on what's a currently triple-booting system without problems? In this case, Solaris would be installed onto half of the slave HD.
2) How difficult and lengthy is the installation process?
3) Does Solaris come with it's own unique bootloader? Can it recognize other operating systems? Is it possible to not install that bootloader and simply edit the configs for a preexisting GRUB to allow it to boot Solaris?

The only way to get content into the Music app is via iTunes store downloads or syncing with itunes on a computer. You will need to find a third party media player such as VLC (whick integrates with DropBox and GoogleDrive, if that appeals to you).

Looking for some info, Creative is not much help.

Looking for some info, Creative is not much help. Ok, right now I have an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum. It can use the digital inputs to decode either Dolby Digital, DD EX, DTS, and DTS ES to the analog speaker outputs. (Also a 5. setup.)
I recently built a new PC, and would like to replace the sound card, but I use that feature (as well as some others). Seeing how Creative doesn't want to easily display the capabilities of there cards, I would like someone to let me know what card will allow the fallowing in Windows XP, Vista, and theoretically Windows 7.
Hardware decoding of Dolby Digital, DD EX, DTS, and DTS ES and allow a proper 5. playback through analog speakers.
Recording of whatever is playing out of the the speakers. The recording selection is labeled "What U Hear")
The reasons behind me wanting to buy a new card are simply that I would prefer to run it through PCI-Express, and have full compatibility at the release of Windows 7 without any loss of features I need. From what I can tell, if things work in Windows Vista they will work in [email protected]

All I can say to you (someone correct me if I'm wrong) is that Xtremegamer's doesn't decode DD/DTS via hardware with official drivers (altough they're capable of - all X-Fi are capable of decoding). XtremeMusic does the job with official drivers. I don't know the rest of the models. Someone adds [email protected]

When connecting to my wifi I get ! When looking for networks

When connecting to my wifi I get ! When looking for networks
I

When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

Finder crashes when "looking for networks" - workaround that helps

I've read through most of the messages about finder crashes, but what's going on in my case I haven't seen. As I have a work around, I thought I should post.
If for whatever reason the wireless connection pauses or gets interrupted (for example, by closing the lid), the finder hangs in the process of "looking for networks." Most of the time I can still pull up the dock -- the spinning beach ball only clicks in if I mouse over the top menu bar. Sometimes (but not always) I can quit open applications through the dock before I have to do a hard reset.
My workaround is this: I turn wi-fi off before I close the lid. When I open the lid, I wait a short time -- 30 seconds, about -- and turn the wireless back on, and this way I can avoid the finder crashing. If the wi-fi pauses for some other external reason, when "looking for networks" starts up, the finder will hang again.
It's way past time that Apple coughs up a permanent fix, but this might help somebody who's having the same problem. And maybe somebody has a better workaround, in which case, I'd love to hear about it.

1. Going into a folder on my external hard drive that contains the installer for divx for mac.
Divx has been a source of problems with both Tiger & Leopard. See for example Mac OS X 10.5: Finder may not fully "load". If you have installed it, it is probably at least part of your problem.
then i erased the whole thing, and used the Mac OS X 10.5 install DVD that came with my mom's iMac (still happens)
This is not recommended. The install disks that come with specific Mac models do not necessarily install the same things or do all the error checks that the retail Leopard installer disk does. (It is also a violation of the software license to install it on another Mac.) If you want a trouble-free, supported installation of Leopard, use only the retail installer or a disk specifically intended for your exact Mac model.

If in my Hardware section of System Information, when I select Thunderbolt and the reply is: Thunderbolt: No hardware was found, does that mean the computer does not contain Thunderbolt or that no Device using Thunderbolt is attached?

If in my Hardware section of System Information, when I select Thunderbolt and the reply is:
Thunderbolt: No hardware was found,
does that mean the computer does not contain Thunderbolt or that no Device using Thunderbolt is attached and that the computer does have thunderbolt?
I have Lion and both my Mini Server and Macbook Pro are less than a year old, however both were bought from Apple as reconditioned units so they might be older, and I expected they would have Thunderbolt but when I connect a Black Magic Intensity Extreme unit which is a thunderbolt powered and driven Device using a Thunderbolt Cable to either computer, it is not recognized.

No other information in Sys Info and I guess as both units, Mini and MBPro, were reconditioned, they were pre July and February , 2011, respectively.
I don't suppose there is any way to add Thunderbolt or USB 3.0 to prior generation Mac Products or get similar performance.

Looking for basic info on queue prefetch

I'm trying to get an idea how queue prefetch works, and what's it for.
I'm working with Tibco queue and it looks like the default setting is 5 for prefetch.
Also I'm interested in interaction between queue prefetch setting and an XA transaction.
We had some problems related to that (lost messages).
I'd like to hear from anyone who dealt with any of those issues.
Thanks,
Mark

I'm going to answer my own question in case anyone is looking for similar info.
This bit from ActiveMQ documentation talks about the prefetch setting:
http://activemq.apache.org/what-is-the-prefetch-limit-for.html
As for the problems with XA transactions and prefetch settings those turned out to be related to Mule ESB, which apparently is not very stable.

Connect your phone to iTunes, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar and select Reset Warnings. Then sync again and you should get a warning listing the problem files.

What model laptop do you have?
Have you tried using a different USB port?
If you have a USB flash drive or external hard drive, does that work when connected to the same port?

Looking for a query to find first/last dates in overlapping dates...

Hi,
I'm looking for a query to find the first dates and last dates in a table conaining overlapping dates.
I have a subscription table which has for each Customer start and end date for different subscriptions.
I want to know the different ranges of date where there is subscriptions active.
so if the table has this:
CustID, Start date, end date
1, 2008-01-01, 2012-06-06
1 ,2009-01-01, 2011-01-01
1, 2011-01-01, 2013-02-02
1, 2013-01-01, 2013-08-08
1, 2014-01-01, 2014-04-04
I want to produce this result:
custid, range start, range end
1, 2008-01-01, 2013-08-08
1, 2014-01-01, 2014-04-04
the first row is the range identified from the 4 rows in my subscription table.

Daniel.AFAIK, a string of text does not have an (x,y) location inside a PDF file. The location is exists on your screen, and will differ whenever you adjust the resolution of it. Text can have a location when it's stored as an image though, but than it's really the location of a certain number of pixels (not necessarily a string!).
