System Update and RSS feeds don't work (or "no news is good news")
My Moto Droidx upgraded itself to Android 2.2 and since then, the RSS feeds I had are not showing any new entries. Checking the underlying websites shows that new entries have been made.
Any attempt to create new Moto or Andrioid RSS news widgets comes back with an error (of course it just says "error" with no number or explanation).
Has anyone else seen this? Is there some news blackout in placeIs there a fix or a way to back off Android 2.2???
Thanks.
I have provided some steps below that may help.
Step 1 – Try completing a soft reset on the device. I have provided the instruction in an article below:
Power off the device and remove the battery

Step 2 – Remove the widget and icon off the devices home screen and clear out the data and cache. I have provided the instruction article below:
Clear data, Clear cache (if applicable), and Clear defaults
http://support.vzw.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=34831
Step 3 – Put the device into safe mode. Safe mode is a method that allows the device to run without non-essential applications. This is beneficial for troubleshooting 3rd party applications. I have provided the instruction in an article below:

If it works correctly in safe mode, there may be a application not native to the device causing the issue

CS4 installer hangs on "checking system profile" and posted answers don't work
I had a disk corruption of some sort and fixed with Disk Warrior but Creative Suite 4 would not run on a G5 PowerPC running Leopard 10.5x. I kept getting a request that my demo had expired but I have a legal version. Adobe uninstaller wouldn’t work, so I trashed everything that I could find relating to adobe including stuff in library. When I ran installer, the problem “checking system profile…” hung up when about 90% done checking the hard disk. There are a lot of posts about this and I tried several suggestions online but none worked including making new user, booting up in Safe Mode or Root user, modifying file called ContainerProxy.js (e.g. http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407428.html), running AdobeCreativeSuiteCleanerTool, disconnecting form internet, etc. Is there a fix for this since wasting a lot of time for something that should be trivial.
thanks!It's Design Premium CS4
Oops, I meant to post this here but put on another post, so here it is:
After more searching I found a fix that seemed to work but my experience not completely identical as before (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2236990#2236990)
I right clicked on the setup package, choose "show package contents"
double clicked the mac osx folder, double clicked setup from there and got a message that process was already running and to quit which I did in Terminal which had opened when I clicked on setup. That quit the installer which was hung up as before. I double-clicked the setup in the package contents again, and a new terminal window came up, I entered admin pw which was requested, and then installer ran in Terminal and got a window to enter my (legal) serial number; installer then read DVD installer disks. Here is log of successful terminal session (username is Tucana):

Just installed OSX update and now widgets don't work
I click on my dashboard and my widget icons all show up as black squares with a @, a music note, a cloud, and a clock. I click on them and nothing happens. How can I fix that?
I found just one of my Widgets malfunctioning (BBCWeather Widget) and contacted the author (correct term?) yesterday. He replied this morning with a link to an updated version!
That is one option for non-Apple widgets, but if you have many widgets misfiring, it's a tall order. And if it's the widgets that come with Tiger, then maybe try downloading and installing the appropriate 10.4.7 Combo Update from this page.
Repair permissions before and after the update.

Lenovo System Update and Lenovo Support RSS Feed (X60)
Okay. I got Lenovo System Update (version 5, for Windows 7) and it did not offer me any Critical updates. Only Recommended and Optional ones. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, so I don't want to install Recommended and Optional updates, only the Critical ones if there is any.
On the other hand I also have the Lenovo Support RSS Feed. But they bring me to dead links. For my X60 the two drivers in my RSS Feed are
ThinkVantage Access Connections patch for Access Connections Version 5.95 for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-...
Patch module for Power Manager for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), Vista (32-bit, 64-bit) - ThinkPad -
Both are totally dead links.
The tricky part is that there is absolutely no correlation between the two: totally different drivers in the System Update and the RSS Feed.Hello both,
SU has been discontinued because old SU version wouldn´t work with SP2.
Refer to this thread in at the ThinkVantage board regarding this situation and possible solutions
and ask your questions there, please.

"Enter your name and password to update the RSS feed"
I keep getting a pop-up from Safari (even when it's in the background) that says:
+*Enter your name and password to update the RSS feed*+
How on earth do I disable this? It is asking for a username and password for Twitter so I must have clicked an RSS feed link there, but after searching like mad, I can't figure out where Safari looks for RSS at on my system.Same here,
It says:
<<Enter your name and password to update the RSS feed.
To update teh RSS feed "Gmail - Inbox for [email protected]", you need to log in to the area "New mail feed" on mail.google.com. Your password will be sent in clear text.
Name: (blank field)
Password: (blank field)
O Remember this password in my keychain. >>
This started occurring immediately after updating to safari 4.
I tried disabling the automatic RSS updates in safari preferences, set it to "never" as suggested, but the annoying window keeps on popping up.
So the original question is still not answered for me.
It seems to me that all people reporting this problem are OSX Tiger (10.4.11) users -
I rely heavily on my earphones because well... I'm lazy but they don't work. They work on my friend's iPhone who hasn't updated yet but I've updayed and the mic and volume buttons don't work. Please make a correct update!
Nope, still same problem. I did an install, didn't work. Then I completely removed my IDT driver, restarted, installed the driver, restarted, same problem.
When I troubleshoot my audio it always asks me which one to troubleshoot. It only works if I do one of the "Speakers / HP - IDT" but I don't know why it has so many devices listed with the same name.
Also, after I troubleshoot and I can hear audio, if I go to "Manage audio devices" it still shows that no audio device is installed, which is why the webinars won't work. -

Clear Safari. Close Safari. Reset your iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Safari app then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Error message on searching for system updates and news feeds
I always get an error message when I attempt System Updates and when I attempt to subscribe to news feeds through the app that is pre-loaded on my phone. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hello Mitch4815,
Thank you for reaching out for assistance with the New Feeds on your new Droid Bionic. I too own this device and I hope that you are as happy with yours as I am with mine. I've subscribed to the Reuter's Technology News on my Bionic so I can stay in the know on the latest and greatest rumors in the wireless world. Not only is it my job but I enjoy reading the speculation on the latest and upcoming devices. Needless to say I've had an experience that's similar to yours.
When I received a subscription error, I had to do a factory data reset on my new Droid Bionic in order to successfully subscribe to the News Feeds. Although I do recommend that you try this, let's save this step as a last resort. Please try to remove the battery while the device is powered on & re-insert then power the device on. Afterwards, verify that you have a good 3G/4G signal, anything more than 2 bars. If you are still experiencing access issues then the factory data reset would be the next step. Here is a link on how to perform a factory data reset on a Droid Bionic.
http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=46649
Of course you will have to reactivate your device after the factory reset. Prior to completing the reset I recommend verifying that your contacts are backed up on either backup assistant or on your Gmail account. Also, your pictures, videos, and music will be saved on the memory card so this info is not in danger. After you have completed the steps above, please reply to this message as your experience may help others.
Thank you for being the best part of Verizon Wireless. -
I'm trying to get a public link to my pdf file? I tried the system's process and the links don't work. I can't even copy the links I have to write them down and then enter them. Is anyone else having this problem. I've seen this question a couple times with no replies.
Hi mariondouglas,
Do I understand correctly that you've used Send to send a file that you've uploaded to Acrobat.com? What happens when you send to your own email address? Are you able to click the link in that email, and access the file that way?
If you're unable to copy the email in the browser window after you've generated a public link, please clear the browser cache, and try again. Or, use a different web browser (for a list of supported browsers, see System requirements | Acrobat.com).
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara -

i updated my ipad 3 to latest version of system upgrade and now it is not working. All black screen with Itunes logo. I tried restarting
Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
$19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard. -

So I feel like I made a grave error in choosing iWeb to create and .mac to host my podcast. After creating the podcast page in iWeb and publishing it to .mac and the iTunes Music Store, I noticed that the podcast didn't have artwork when you find it in ITMS like it should have. I emailed ITMS and they replied that I have to manually update my RSS feed. No problem, except...
I've no idea how to do this! I know what to change and all that to add the artwork that should be there as well as the ITMS search keywords, but I have no idea where to find my RSS feed on my computer so that I can update it. ITMS email help told me to do a spotlight search on my computer but I can't find it anywhere.
iWeb doesn't tell you where the website is saved on your computer and I can't find it for the life of me.
Does anyone know how I can manually update my RSS feed? Again, I've found the page that tells me how I'm supposed to change the feed and I know what to do once I find it, but I can't find the bugger!
This seems ridiculous, and creating your site on iWeb is supposed to be the easy and fool-proof method, but it's really not and I'm really frustrated.Hi Keith
You need to look in your iDisk (if you don't have it mounted go to System Prefs > .Mac > iDisk, and wait till it's synchronized).
Your RSS.xml file will be in a subfolder of your Web folder - open it in TextEdit, make your changes and Save.
It worked for me http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=167005059

Mail freezes when updating large RSS feed boxes
This is something I encountered and how I have formulated a work around. I have discovered that Mail will freeze when updating large RSS feed boxes.
A little history. After discovery RSS and how they work, I began building a collection of feeds. They included feeds from many major news providers. Over the years, the number articles form some of these sources went into the thousands.
As my database of articles grew, I encountered more severe and more frequent freezes of the application Mail. I began to take the computer off-line in order to work in these files. But inevitably, a situation would arise that would lead to the Mail application freezing.
Isolation of the issue with Mail and to the RSS boxes within Mail. The freeze would not occur when RSS feeds boxes where collapsed. Also, the freeze only affected the Mail application. Mac OS was not affected and I was able to alway close Mail from with in the Force Quit menu. Also, the Force Quit menu affirmed that Mail was indeed frozen by listing it as also "not responding."
Work around. To resolve this issue, I first choose to remove the number of RSS feed that I had subscribed to but used very infrequently. Second, I choose to delete old feeds from "never" to "every two weeks" from within the Mail preference menu (RSS sub-menu).
I think it took a while for Mail to fully delete messages older than two weeks. In fact, when I began deleting whole feeds, it took some time for those feeds to be removed from my mail box tree. Within the Activity Monitor application, I could see that a lot of disk use was occurring, even though the OS was allowing me to continue to use Mail and other applications.
To assist this process, I took my computer off-line and stepped away from it. Upon my return, the disk use was down to normal, the number of article in many RSS boxes where greatly reduced, and my disk had recovered over a GB of space. Also, Mail seems to be behaving properly, with smooth and quick performance.
If you found this article, I hope the information provided has been helpful! After a quick search in to previous posts, an entirely similar post was not found. However, others are finding the Mail application will freeze, but not necessary for the same reason.Since I don't want to download any attachments from RSS feeds in Mail.app, is there any way to turn off the attachment download once and for all? I also get the beach ball for minutes when an item has a big attachment, and I fear my HD is cluttered with files I don't use.
