Thunar won't update on Filesystem change

Hi everyone
Is it intended that Thunar only displays changes on the Filesystem after i clicked "Refresh". For example if I delete a file via command line Thunar still displays it till i hit refresh.... this isn't really how a filemanger should work... so did I miss something or what?
Thanks
smax

Stripped gamin 0.1.10 and thunar 0.9.99.1 (svn) builds solved these anoyances for me:
gamin 0.1.10
--disable-static --disable-docs --disable-gtk-doc --disable-inotify --disable-dnotify --disable-kqueue --disable-hurd_mach_notify --with-threads --without-html-dir --without-python
thunar 0.9.99.1
--disable-static --disable-gnome-thumbnailers --enable-debug=no --disable-apr-plugin --disable-exif --disable-sbr-plugin --disable-pcre --disable-tpa-plugin --disable-wallpaper-plugin --without-x --without-locales-dir --without-html-dir
Not sure what the root cause(s) was, but removed as much as I could in an attempt to circumvent thunar/pcmanfm/gamin annoyances (fam would hang thunar every so often, slow deletes and updates with pcmanfm + gamin from repos). Seems to have worked so far for both thunar and pcmanfm...

CSS changes won't update, but HTML changes do

So – for the sake of this question – please assume that my path to the CSS file is correct – and that I am uploading my files to the proper directory on the server (I have checked and double-checked and then double-checked again, as well as tested in various ways, so I know these things to be true).
I have a site that I am making changes to. When I make changes to the CSS file, I cannot see my changes reflected in the pages, even though the time stamp on the server shows that the most up-to-date CSS file is there. If I put the path to the CSS file in a browser – it shows the old, unchanged, code. However – if I make changes to HTML files – the changes show up right away like normal. However – if I change the NAME of the CSS file (and update the HTML page with the new name) the changes show. But then the NEW CSS file exhibits the same odd behavior)
Last night, I made changes like this that didn’t show. This morning, the changes ARE there, though I am experiencing the same problem of lack of immediate response.
I’ve cleared my cache, I’ve rebooted, I’ve run an ipconfig /flushdns and i've used different browsers to check my work,
Can anyone think of any reason that HTML changes would show up immediately, but CSS changes wouldn’t?
Thanks…
Dave

Just a bit more evidence for this mystery:
I uploaded all the relevant files to a completely different server - and everything acts just as it should. CSS changes update immerdiately, HTML changes update immediately. Strange...

My app won't update after I changed my AppleId

I recently had to change my appleId because I weren't able to connect to iCloud. So I did that, but I have a major issue since then. When I try to update my Apps, iTunes consider that I'm not the owner, and suggests me to buy the app again.

Yeah, unfortunately individual purchases are linked to one and only one Apple ID (the one you purchased them with). As of right now, you cannot combine Apple IDs, or move purchases over from one to another. To update apps purchased on another Apple ID, you'll have to sign out of your current account, then sign back in to the old account, do the updates, then sign out and back into the new one again. PITA but it woks if you're desperate.
There are rumors and some hints that Apple is working to allow the merging of iTunes Store Apple ID accounts (the CEO Tim Cook has said he's aware it's an issue), but nothing definitive yet and no one knows when. In some cases you can call Apple Support and have them move individual purchases over from one account to another, though this seems to be taken on a case by case basis, sometimes they will, sometimes they won't.

10.1.0 won't update, can't change preference settings

My Vista OS seems to be preventing me from making any change to my Reader updater AND I've discovered that the settings are incorrect. I want “Automatically install updates” selected instead of “Do not download or install updates automatically” and the choice does not stay selected.
ALSO, I tried to check for updates manually-- I opened Reader, clicked on “Help” then clicked on “Check for Updates” – got message: “Update failed -- To update Adobe Reader you need administer privileges on this machine. Error 1200”
Strange, because I AM the Owner/Administrator on this machine!!
I think I have traced the possible problem to “User Account Control” as it is the window that pops up when I make a change in Reader. But I have not been able to turn the UAC on or off.
Any suggestions as to how to get out of this mess would be SO appreciated!!! I need to eventually get the latest update installed and keep the updates coming, as I'm concerned about security.

Podcast info won't update

Hi There,
I know there are similar threads on this but I still couldn't find anything that sorted it. My information (ie the description and title) on my main podcast page in the itunes store won't update. I changed stuff on my host site over 24 hours ago and pinged it but it still won't update. This is my podcast:
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=303956733
Any info on this would be great!
Thanks!
Robbie

Thanks for the response. So even if its been pinged it can still take more than 24 hours yeah?
Am I right in saying that info on my feed (like the description for the main page on itunes) can be changed at any point? You don't need to be approved again by itunes?? But then it just takes at least 24 hours for itunes to pick it up.

App store keeps asking for old owner's password when I try to download updates, even though I am logged into my Apple account. It won't allow me to change ID to mine.

I bought a used iMac recently, and sometimes the app store asks for the user password of the previous owner (and displays former owner's ID). It won't allow me to change ID to mine, even though I am signed into store with my own account (and this is shown in dropdown menu). How can I make the store recognize my ID for downloads?

It is showing updates because your machine is tied to the original purchase and will remain so until you wipe the drive.
As you purchased it used and the seller obviously did not do what he was supposed to do and that is erase the hard drive and reinstall the original system, you will run in to far more difficult problems when you need to reinstall for whatever reason. The new licensing requirements are that any mac is sold with the original OS - any OS or app obtained at the app store is NOT transferable and the buyer needs to purchase their own license. That means you will not be able to reinstall the OS.
At some point, you will need to try to get either the original install disks (from the seller or Apple) and wipe your drive and reinstall. Then you can download your own licensed copy of Mavericks and any apps you want.

Mac won't update software or access iTunes shop. Message comes up with 'not connected to the net. Check connections' error. I still have internet access. Changed my Apple ID but no result. Repaired permissions and re-installed operating system.

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

I had to change my Apple ID. However, it won't change in my phone. I changed it in setting, but when it comes to downloading updates for apps or music, it won't update from my old Apple ID.

However, it won't change in my phone. I changed it in setting, but when it comes to downloading updates for apps or music, it won't update from my old Apple ID. For instance, I had to change my apple ID from (for instance, "[email protected]") to something else ("[email protected]"). I changed it in settings to the new one, but when I go to update apps, my phone is still connected to "[email protected]"
What should I do?

In the Finder do a Get Info on one of those files & the folder it's in, report what it says for privileges.
Oh, did you maybe change your short username/Home Folder's name?

Changed id, won't update on icloud.

I changed my apple id, but it won't change on icloud on my ipod touch. I can log into icloud on the computer w/ the new id, but the ipod has the old id on icloud and won't allow me to change it. W/o it I can't get my calendar to sync w/ my son's baseball schedule which I synced to my gmail calendar on the computer, but it won't update to the ipod.

I sync'd my son's baseball schedule from highschoolsports.net into my gmail calendar. I can see it on my computer gmail calendar, but it won't sync with my ipod calendar. If I manually type something onto my computer calendar, it immediately shows up on my ipod.
Also I downloaded the app "USA Holidays" today, and even though it says it added the holidays to my calendar, they are not there.

So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone won't stay on unless connected to mains... Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly. HELP

So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone shut down and now won't stay on unless connected to mains... Claims its at 100% battery but thats impossible as it was at 30% before it shut down randomly.
Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly.
Turns off as soon as removed from usb ... wont stay on connected to laptop!
HELP!

The iPhone includes a one year warranty. If an Apple store is not nearby, you can call AppleCare and handle an exchange under warranty over the phone. The exchange will be shipped to your door - someone must sign for the delivery so if no one will be at home, have it delivered where you work. You use the same box to return the existing iPhone back to Apple. Return shipping label and tape to reveal the box incuded - call the carrier with number incuded when the box is ready to be picked up. AppleCare will request a credit card in the event the existing iPhone is not returned within 10 days after the exchange under warranty is received.
Hardware can fail - it happens, which is why there is a one year warranty.

Updating Xen after filesystem change.

Hello!
I have an older Xen-Server running and want to update it. Of course, with pacman -Syu I ran into the "filesystem: /bin exists in filesystem"-problem. Now I know I have to use
pacman -Qqo /bin /sbin /usr/sbin | pacman -Qm -
to find the packages that I have to fix manually.
Of course Xen is listed there, because its non-official. However, because the server is running on Xen, how can I fix that package without having to shutdown reinstall the whole thing manually?
For those that don't know Xen, it's basically a kernel that loads the actual Linux into a hypervisor (Dom0) from where the specific virtual guest-systems are launched. That means, my host-system always has Xen running underneath.
I am unsure about the process updating Xen so I better ask here before that server gets completely messed up.

OK I think I have the answer
Work, in order to give me a functioning machine, installs Apple apps using its own Apple ID. It means they can write an image to my disk instead of painstakingly installing a box o' apps. makes perfect sense.
I then add my own preferred apps, and those I bought myself through the apple store using MY Apple ID.
Thus I can update "My" apps but can't update the apps installed by our IT department, because the system wants the appleID from the installer/disk image they were installed from.
Thus I can upgrade to Yosemite but not install the related apps like pages/Keynote, etc. since it asks for the IT department's Apple ID and not mine, regardless of the apple ID I have entered in the System prefs.
This happens with the following Apple apps::
Pages
Numbers
Keynote
iMovie
iPhoto
So: here's my solution.
After you have the entire system updated etc, and you have isolated the apps that won't update for this specific reason, delete one of those apps, install it from scratch from the apple store, wait for it to download and install, open it once to make sure it works, then move to the next one. Painstaking I know but it worked...

I had to change my FeedBurner links and now my podcasts won't update

I have six podcasts on iTunes right now. I recently had to change the Feed address on FeedBurner for four of them and now I don't know how to change the Feed that the podcasts update from. So I have four podcasts that won't update. Any idea how to change the source Feed of a podcast while still keeping the same iTunes everything.

Without more information one can only comment quite generally. The usual method is that people create the podcast in a program or online service, producing a feed which they then submit to Feedburner. From this, Feedburner creates its own version of the feed, adding some extra tags, and this is then submitted to the iTunes Store. As far as the Store is concerned the Feedburner feed is the podcast feed.
You can change the feed from which Feedburner works in Feedburner, but I can't advise on specifics - you would need to look in Feedburner's Help for that. Doing this doesn't affect the Feedburner feed as far as the Store is concerned.
If you want to move the Store to using a different Feedburner feed you need to follow the proces described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/podcast.html#move
You do not need to do this if you are only changing the feed Feedburner works from.

Muse, website won't update changes.

I''m using Muse to make a portfolio website by hosting with godaddy, uploading to FTP host and until now its been working very well. My Muse updated the other day and since then I have been unable to make changes to my website. I have even cleared my hosting folder and tried re-uploading the entire site multiple times. I have posted two images to show you what the website is currently looking like in the browser, and a screenshot of Muse and what is it now supposed to be looking like. The main difference is I have added another project to my page and actually activated the "soudspaceLA" links and moved it around. Everything works just fine in the browser preview through Muse, just does not upload correctly. What is going on?! My site is www.victoria-rice.com

Hi
Please have a look to this thread, and see if this helps
New muse won't update site

The Apple ID has been changed on my iPad but the apps won't update with the new id and password, including the apps that came with the iPad so I can't delete and reinstall with new Apple ID

What do you do if you have bought a used iPad and the apps won't update without the original id and password. Can't delete the apps that come with the iPad and reinstall them so what do I do?

Correct. An app can only be updated under the Apple ID that was used to orginally acquire the app. If that is a problem you can delete the app and download again under the new userid. If you paid for the app you will have to pay again. Your old Apple ID does not go away so there is no reason to not use it to download the apps.
You cannot delete the apps that came with IOS. If you want to "hide" the apps simply put the apps into an application folder by dragging one app onto another. You can do this to all the IOS apps.

Certain apps won't update or download on any device.

I've searched for two weeks to no avail. I've seen similar problems posted but nothing quite like this. I have an iPhone 5s iOS 8.2, a 4th Gen iPad iOS 8.2 and Mac Mini Late 2014 OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. It all started with wanted to download the Pages app. My iPad is old enough it wouldn't let me download it for free so I initiated the download on my iPhone and then promptly cancelled. I then tried to download Pages from "the cloud" onto my iPad. It downloaded 3/4 of the way and failed stated that the app could not be downloaded at this time with two options to continue: done and retry. And now there are a handful of apps that will fail somewhere in the download and some apps that are already installed on the devices that won't update. Any app that has previously failed WILL download over cellular network on the iPhone 5s. I've tried four separate location with WIFI access and these same apps will not download. I've cleared network statistics, restored the iPhone to factory defaults, changed Apple ID password, tried a different Apple ID, and trying to download apps on Mac Mini to sync to iPhone/iPad over tethered connection. The only partial fix I have discovered is to start download over cellular network and switch to WIFI download. Please... any ideas. I feel I may have left out some steps I might have taken so please feel free to ask any questions.

I had this problem and solved it by going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
Note: This will not delete any apps, songs, videos, or podcasts from your phone. It will only reset your wallpapers, brightness, bluetooth, contact sorting, network preferences (still remembers networks though), etc. It's a bit annoying to go update all these back to how yo like, but much less annoying than a full restore.
DO NOT press Erase All Content and Settings. This will delete everything and you'll have to restore from iTunes.
