T430 Sound failing intermittently

The sound is failing intermittently on my T430.
Closing then opening the lid to enter and return from hibernation sometimes restores sound. When this does not work restarting the machine usually restores sound. But the sound fails again after an indeterminate period.
Opening Ubuntu Linux in Virtualbox now displays the message "Some audio devices (PCM_in, PCM-mic) could not be opened".
I'd appreciate any advice.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Since this problem appeared out of the blue I suspect a Windows update.
Googling "windows 8 update loss of audio" highlights a recent update
KB2962407. Uninstalling this update solves the problem.
Of course I now wait to see what other problems this unistallation
causes :-)

Satellite L505d-LS5007 sound fails

Sound fails for no reason. Tried troubleshooter which says no device installed then can't load driver. Rebooted, Updated windows. Uninstalled and rebooted. Nothing! This happens frequently. Please help.

Your sound never works, or it only works intermittently? There are known problems with the "D" series and solder joints failing. Search for threads about "No sound, no USB." Sound with crackles often preceeded a failure. Dead USB ports were another early indicator of motherboard issues.
The machines of that timeframe with the AMD processors seem to have more problems than the ones with Intel CPUs. I presume that is due to extra heat the AMDs throw off. I had a L505D-S6947 with the AMD X2 and it ran quite warm. My cat used the exhaust port as a body warmer. LOL I sold that machine and replaced it with a L505-ES5034 simply because I expected the AMD machine to have the same motherboard / components failure(s). I bought the S6947 in summer 2009 and ran it until summer 2012, and had no problems with it, though.

Publications fail intermittently on XI 3.1

Hello,
We have publications that fail intermittently with the error:
An exception was caught while scheduling the publication. (FBE60203) or
Unable to find the infostore service. Is your CMS running and configured properly? (FBE60002)
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKException$OCAFramework: Unable to reconnect to the CMS xxx.ny2.xxx.net:6400. The session has been logged off or has expired. (FWM 01002)

The publication log also invarably contains Unable to reconnect to the CMS xxx.ny2.xxx.net:6400. The session has been logged off or has expired. (FWM 01002).
The publications are scheduled as follows:
1. A program object is scheduled to kick off the publication. This program object passes values to the prompts in the publication at run time.
2. The publications are scheduled as MHTML files to an FTP server.
3. The publications are based on different tabs in Webi report
Our environment consists of a full stack on a single server.
Environment details:
BO XI 3.1 Premium CPU on RHEL 4 (64 bit) (2.6.9-67.0.15.ELsmp)
Oracle 64 bit
Tomcat 5.5
We schedule a lot of reports using a similar process flow. It is only the publications that fail.
We have a case open too. I was hoping someone had seen something like this before.
The entire publication log from the last time one of the publications failed is below:

Once a publication fails, the only method to ensure success is to:
1. Restart the CMS, Publication Job Server and Webi Processing Server
2. Recreate the publication (remove the source, add it again)
As an aside, I've had cases open twice before for the same issue. I closed them both because I can't replicate on demand (we were on XI3.0 RTM at that point).
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks.
Srinivas

Mike,
I still have the case open with support on this. While I am (still) unsure as to which session has logged off, support suggested that I do the following:
Add
-requesttimeout 3600000 on following servers.
1.CMS
2.Webi Processing Server.
3.Adaptive job Server.
4.Publication Job server.
5.Input Server.
This seems to have done the job, at least for now. I am still testing though.
If your publication does fail with such an error, restarting the SIA could be a temporary solution.
Let me know if you need anything else.
Best,
Srinivas

XCreateIC fails intermittently on Solaris utf-8 locale

Hi,
I'm using motif 2.1 and Xlib of Solaris 8 (i.e. /usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so). In my application I'm using Drawing Area widget for text editing. I'm trying to create a input context for Root-Window input style. The following XCreateIC() call fails intermittently on utf-8 locale, while the same problem is not happening on non-utf-8 locale e.g. ja_JP.eucJP.
ic = XCreateIC (im, XNInputStyle, XIMPreeditNothing | XIMStatusNothing, XNClientWindow, xim_win, NULL)) == NULL)
printf("\nXCreateIC failed.\n");
return (0);
I'm not able to identify what is going wrong. Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Issue resolved. I reinstalled XManager.
Now it works fine.
Kind regards,
Daniel

Group Policy failing intermittently on one of my servers

Have you checked the event logs to see if a specific thing is triggering it?
CMOS battery been changed (if the date/time is being reset this can be the cause)?
Or GPResult to check that what should be applied is being applied?

I have a server-2008 R2 box where Group Policy fails intermittently. The result is the server looses it's domain trust connection, exact error message is: Remote Desktop cannot verify the ID of the remote computer because there is a time or date difference....
I can reboot the server and it's fixed, but a month later it will have the same issue.
What can I look for to troubleshoot resolve, and what can I monitor to fix this? GP service? If the service is running & the interface, port, or bad cable, I will not be alerted. Can I configure some type of alert that tells me when GP replication with the domain controller has succeeded/failed?

CS5: Magic Wand fails intermittently; cannot use Channel Mixer on selection

Hello,
Using CS5 / Photoshop on Mac OS 10.6.4. 4GB RAM.
The Magic Wand tool fails intermittently. Quitting PS and rebooting seems to re-enable use of the Magic Wand.
However, even when the Magic Wand tool does "work", for some reason I can no longer use any of the items in Image -> Adjustments, such as the Channel Mixer. This functionality was working just 20 minutes ago, and now even with multiple reboots I cannot seem to get it working again.
Googling came up with no relevant articles on this errant behavior.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Could you post a screenshot?

CodedUI Tests Fails Intermittently With Initialization Errors

I would like to re-ask the question asked in this thread:

IDOC Failing Intermittently

Hi Folks,
We are facing some wierd error..
Inbound IDocs (to ECC) are failing intermittently...and when reprocessed getting processed successfully..
We are using DELVRY07 IDOC and error we receive during failure is
<SAP:Code area="IDOC_ADAPTER">ATTRIBUTE_IDOC_METADATA</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1>Obligatory node 'E1EDL20' missing in the structure DELVRY07.Z...</SAP:P1>
We have checked at mapping level and seen that all attributes and segments are mapped with values...
Also in our mapping we have changed the signature of the idoc from 1 to 0..unbounded (instead of importing as dtd..)
your suggestions/pointers on this will be appreciated..
Note : we are on PI 7.1 Ehp1..
Regards
Rajesh

This is a weird problem. One of the possible ways is that your ECC might be not responding temporarily due to limited resources and so mesgs are not flowing from PI to ECC. Check with Basis team. This is my assumption. If some cron job or process or report takes more resources in ECC for a particular short span time, this could slow down or not accepting idocs and that moment it fails acceptin your idoc.

GetThumbnailAsync failing intermittently

Hi,
As I can't get the associated application for a filetype, see:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/225d7822-a429-4816-b4d5-408daf3db5ac/get-icon-of-associated-application?forum=winappswithnativecode
I'm using getThumbnailAsync(ThumbnailMode::SingleItem, 100) but this fails intermittently on different files with a HRESULT of E_PENDING. Is there any way I can avoid this? If not what are my options, reissuing the call etc.
Thanks for the help

Hi,
What's meaning about fails intermittently on different files with a HRESULT of E_PENDING? Do you meand when you use getThumbnailAsync(ThumbnailMode::SingleItem, 100) on the same type of files, the thumbnails are different. If so, there is no wany to handle
that. For music file, if the file has album art, the thumbnail is the album art and uses the original aspect ratio of the file. Otherwise, the thumbnail is just an icon. You can see the link to get more information:

USB mouse fails intermittently

My USB mouse (on 17"G4 PowerBook 1.67) fails intermittently. It will just freeze. If I unplug the mouse and replug, it will start working again. Both ports behave the same way, and I've tried two different mice. Same result.
I've done the Power Module Reset for this machine (Unplug power; remove battery; press/hold "start"). As promised, the clock needed resetting, but it didn't fix the mouse/USB problem.
Problem occurs unpredictably; sometimes will go a day or two between failures; other times only a few minutes.
Any clues?

I posted this in the wrong forum (15" aluminum) but I saw your post, it may be the same problem. I have a 15" PB 1ghz/2gb ram, 10.4.9. USB mice do not work, or only VERY erratically. I have tested several mice, and some work not at all, just blink a couple times, and some work when I jiggle the wire just right, but only briefly.
This made me think it was a contact problem, but other devices work fine with the USB ports; keyboard, wireless dongle, etc. I also tested the mice on other Macs and they work fine.

Multitouch fails intermittently when resuming from Standby on Win 7 x64

I've got Windows 7 64-bit SP1 and Boot Camp 3.2 on a late-2010 Macbook Air 13". Intermittently (about one out of ten times, and more likely if the system has been in standby for an extended period), the multitouch driver will fail to run on resume. When this happens, the [Trackpad] tab is missing from the Boot Camp Control Panel, there is one fewer HID-compliant mouse in the Device Manager, and all multitouch features fail on the trackpad (only basic pointing and mechanical clicks work).
The only method I've found to restore multitouch functionality is to reboot the operating system. I've tried the technique described here: http://brandonlive.com/2007/02/04/macbook-and-vista-fixing-the-trackpad-on-resum e/ but with no luck.
Apple tech support says it's a bug with the Microsoft OS and that I should contact Microsoft Tech Support for resolution, which is basically just a cop-out. Even if it is a bug with the OS, it should be the responsibility of the hardware/driver vendor to identify and report that bug back to the OS vendor.
Does anyone know what I can do to keep the multitouch driver working on resume?
Message was edited by: jaraco

It seems since BootCamp 3.3, this problem was resolved. It has happened very rarely since the update and when it does occur, I can restore the mouse driver by entering standby and resuming again.

Portal authentication failing intermittently post self registration

We are in the process of upgrading from EP6 to EP7 and have hit a critical authentication problem that is proving difficult to diagnose and resolve.
Our self registration process leads straight into user logon:
1) the user fills in the registration form with their user ID, password etc and selects Submit which creates the user ID in our R/3 user store
2) the user is presented with text informing them that their registration has been successful and a Proceed button which when selected authenticates them with the portal with their newly created user ID
Step 2) above is working intermittently in our EP7 system - sometimes the process works exactly as expected others an exception is raised (com.sap.security.core.logon.imp.UMELoginException: USER_AUTH_FAILED).
It seems as though the cause is that the user creation process has not completed fully before the logon step.
We tried implementing a wait step (10 seconds) following selection of the Proceed button which reduced the incidence rate of the problem but didn't cure it entirely.
A possible contributing factor is hardware performance as we are testing the upgrade on an impact analysis system which is not as efficient as our live portal landscape.
I've pasted the code which performs the authentication and extracts from the DIAGTOOL portal logs below which show the login module configuration (SAP standard I believe).
Any help/advice what to try next would be greatly appreciated as we are running out of ideas.
Thanks,
Alan
The following code performs the authentication and redirection to the portal user's home page:

2) the user is presented with text informing them that their registration has been successful and a Proceed button which when selected authenticates them with the portal with their newly created user ID
Step 2) above is working intermittently in our EP7 system - sometimes the process works exactly as expected others an exception is raised (com.sap.security.core.logon.imp.UMELoginException: USER_AUTH_FAILED).
It seems as though the cause is that the user creation process has not completed fully before the logon step.
We tried implementing a wait step (10 seconds) following selection of the Proceed button which reduced the incidence rate of the problem but didn't cure it entirely.
A possible contributing factor is hardware performance as we are testing the upgrade on an impact analysis system which is not as efficient as our live portal landscape.
I've pasted the code which performs the authentication and extracts from the DIAGTOOL portal logs below which show the login module configuration (SAP standard I believe).
Any help/advice what to try next would be greatly appreciated as we are running out of ideas.
Thanks,
Alan
The following code performs the authentication and redirection to the portal user's home page:
public void onRedirect(Event event) throws PageException {
               getBean();
               //Get resource bundle
               ResourceBundle rbSetup =
                    ResourceBundle.getBundle(
                         "setup",
                         ((IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest()).getLocale());
               ILogonAuthentication logonAuthentication =
                    UMFactory.getLogonAuthenticator();
               HttpServletRequest req =
                    ((IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest())
                         .getServletRequest();
               HttpServletResponse res =
                         (IPortalComponentRequest) this
                              .getRequest())
                              .getServletResponse(
                         true);
               req.setAttribute(
                    ILoginConstants.LOGON_UID_ALIAS,
                    SelfRegBean.getLogonUid());
               req.setAttribute(
                    ILoginConstants.LOGON_PWD_ALIAS,
                    SelfRegBean.getPassword());
               Subject subject = null;
               try {
                    subject = logonAuthentication.logon(req, res, AUTHSCHEME);
                    if (null != subject) {
                         res.sendRedirect(rbSetup.getString("REDIRECT_URL"));
               } catch (LoginException e) {
                    SelfRegBean.setError(rb.getString(LOGIN_FAILED));
               } catch (IOException e) {
                    SelfRegBean.setError(rb.getString(REDIRECT_FAILED));

All sounds fail to play

Hello,
All of my sounds will fail to play until a reboot of the phone. This includes Pandora, music on the SD Card, built in ringtones, alarms, etc. This did not start happening until about 2 weeks ago when an update was pushed. This is a big issue being I use my phone for everything. (Email, Text, Alarm Clock, etc) What is the fix for this?
Android version 2.3.4
Build Number 4.5.1_57_DX8-51

My phone started having sound issues in mid-April. I stopped by the corporate store and they looked through my apps. Since I was still having the problems I was able to initiate a warranty replacement. I have had it happen again a couple of times with the new phone also. I was told that it was most probably an app causing the issue. I downloaded a very limited amount of apps and kept track of which apps as well as any issues. It has happened twice since but not in any close proximity of time to when an app was downloaded. Then this week a co-worker brought me her X complaining of the same issue. She told me she hasn't downloaded ANY apps in months.
It would be great to have a resolution, the only suggestion I received since was that it might be an up that had an update or an app that isn't playing nicely with the others!
