Time synchronization problems in OSX Mavericks (V10.9.2, latest patch)

We have set the Date&Time preference  to pool.ntp.org.
The problem is, that during the day the mac server runs behind the correct time. So we have some problems between the serveral mac servers and their installed services. The servers do run all the time. No sleep options are activated.
We have tried to do it with some terminal commands like:
ntpdate -b pool.ntp.org but without success. We got the error:
3 Apr 08:24:27 ntpdate[23520]: the NTP socket is in use, exiting
How can we set the Date&Time preference in OSX Mavericks, that the time and date is always in synch with e.g. pool.ntp.org.
Thanks for your tipp in advance
Ritzo

That command won't do anything when ntpd is already bound to a server, which it is. I'm suggesting you change the time server setting in the Date & Time preference pane.

  • Problems with OSX Mavericks after security update 23 april 2014

    So I ve just updated the latest security update of osx mavericks and i get a really annoying problem. My system went so slow for example when I switch fullscreen a window or back from fullscreen and the effect of apps when I open them it is slow aswell. These things are recogniseable in Safari too so I am not able to use my mac like before. Please help me find out what should I do.

  • Sharing problem from OSX mavericks to windows 7

    I want to acces a windows 7 shared folder with my mac. I have schared the windows folder and have given full permission to evereyone.
    The workgroup name, login and pasword are the same on the MAC and Windows 7 PS.
    I have don a ping test and the result was ok, i've tested with another windows pc and i could connect to the shared folder, just with OSX mavericks it will not work.
    What could be the problem?

    I think Apple disabled the Internet sharing, I have a Airport Express and was sharing my internet with my other boxen that need a Ethernet cable to download wifi drivers and one software update later it just stopped.
    I think I saw that theory posted elsewhere on the internet. I would think that it would be some software bug rather than Apple giving a no-go to sharing over an adhoc.

  • Time synchronization problem with "niUSRP EX Rx Multiple Synchronized Inputs.v i " ??

    Hello,  
    I used "niUSRP EX Rx Multiple Synchronized Inputs.vi "( offred by NI) to synchronize 2 USRP in reception (the master connected to laptop via Ethernet and the slave connected to the master via MIMO cable). 
    I set: master--> RefIn and PpsIn     slave-->Mimo and Mimo. 
    Problem: Inspite I used identical cables that connect the both devices to the transmitter; the signal received by the master and the signal received by the slave ar'nt synchronized in time because the time lag (delay) is not constant!!!. 
    Where is the problem?!!  
    Thank you

    Hi,
    I used:
    transmitter--> Rohde & Shwartz SM300 signal generator.
    Receivers-->  2 x USRP N200 (connected with MIMO cable)  master--> RefIn and PpsIn     slave-->Mimo and Mimo.
    3 identical cables to transmit the signal, connected via Power Splitter/Combiner (Mini-Circuits).
    Cable 10MHz connects the master device with the transmitter.
     FreqTx=700MHz  (sin)           CarrierFreqRx=701MHz  --------> so the received signals are a sin of 1MHz (701-700=1MHz).
    I have no probleme with phase synchronisation (because both the slave and the master received a sin of 1MHz).
    My problem is the time synchronization:
    How can I verify if i did the  time synchronization?
    I must have 2 superposed sin [(ch0 I with ch1 I) (ch0 Q with ch1Q)] ?
    I must do Timed commands? if yes! How to do it?
    I try to run the example of constellation, then i have message: Find VI Named".........Vi"    I have this problem all the time when I run some examples . I have probleme with setup LabView?!
    Best regards

  • Problems with After Effects CC & OSX Mavericks AFTER installing 12.01 Patch

    Ok, let me give the details. Everything working perfectly previously. Update to OSX Mavericks this morning, (had read about the issues), predictably After Effects wouldn't open. I then applied the 12.01 patch as directed by Adobe. I now get this error message, and After Effects won't open. It attempts to, gets to this same spot, then crashes.
    I want to re-iterate that my whole rig was working fine until this so it is definitely related to this update. I have already tried reinstalling patch, resttarting computer, and updating Cuda driver. I have too many plugins, pressets, and scripts to just willy nilly reinstall After Effects as a "let's see if that works". I am on my work computer and need After Effects to work.
    Info on system:
    Mac Pro Mid 2010 Worksatation
    OSX 10.9 (now, updated this morning)

    I disabled my firewall, but still got this error Not sure what it means at all, also not sure how to configure the firewall to not block dynamiclink. I am using Handsoff on Mac and All adobe connection requests and all dynamiclink requests are allowed so I don't know what else to know, although it seems to not be the whole problem. Might not even be the real problem as now I have this new error

  • Sync problem after OSX Maverick updating

    The Blackberry software is incompatible with Mavericks.

  • Having problem downloading osx maverick

    Been downloading osx maverick it shows downloading, been all night downloadingr so where did I go wrong?

    It could be due to one of two reasons.
    1/.   Maybe your computer isn't ready or capable for running Mavericks.  
    2/.   If you can run Mavericks, then try downlaoding it in the early hours when there's not much internet traffic around.  Mavericks is a big download and these forums over Christmas have been full of people getting into difficulties downlaoding the files. 
    I know when it was launched it was difficult because everyone wanted it, but it went a dream for me before 6am and never had a glitch at all.  Good luck!

  • A sign in problem with OSX Mavericks

    Every time I start the computer I have to sign in again. I do not need this protection and how can I change this to what I had before?

    I was a a little too hasty. Several times after your latest, I had to go back to reenter the info I entered since the computer make me sign in to start again. (this even after I relocked the changes.) Then another problem arose. I always just put the Mac to sleep and don't completely turn it off. For the last two times I cannot get it to wake up and have to shut it off and start all over again. I now wish I never downloaded this new OSX.
    Any ideas about this?

  • Problems with OSX Mavericks - How do I return to previous operating system?

    I installed OS X Mavericks on my iMac. Now Safari, Mail, iPhoto, basically all software, hangs up as soon as it is opened. Nothing runs.
    Also I have this constant request for keychain password which I haven't set up. I tried the fix I found online, but as soon as I click on "mail preferences" Mail hangs up and I have to force quit the program.
    I have re-installed this software 3 times now. It has not functioned properly yet. Thank goodness Firefox still works.
    Any solutions out there?

    Apple doesn't seem to know how to "fix what's wrong".
    I spent about an hour yesterday with Apple Tech Support. No solution.
    I had a mbp running Mountain Lion and iPhoto 8.1.2. Perfect harmony.,
    I purchased a new mbp from Apple, running Mavericks. It has iPhoto 9.5.1 on it.
    When I started up iPhoto, it told me that my previous iPhoto library was not compatible and that I needed to "upgrade my iPhoto database"
    I click on that link, and iPhoto stops responding.
    Tech support walked me through various attempts at solving this problem, but all attempts failed.
    After about an hour, neither the original tech nor the supervisor who took over had figured out what to do.
    They told me that, as a last resort, they could save the photos in my old library and be able to use them with iPhoto 9.5.1, but I would lose all the organization (albums, folders). How is that acceptable, Apple? It's a big deal to me. They kept telling me that this was a very unusual case, but if you google "mavericks iphoto problem" you'll see lots of other people having Mavericks/iPhoto issues. They told me that I had a corrupted iPhoto database, but that database works just fine in Mountain Lion with iPhoto 8.1.2.
    Supervisor is supposed to call me Sunday afternoon to follow up on this ....

  • Webmail problems with osx mavericks

    hi,
    since upgrading to mavericks i have problems using my work microsoft webmail on both safari and chrome – on chrome the pop-up window to add attachments no longer works; on safari it barely works (i have to open the attachment pop up twice before i can upload an attachment), where it also keeps crashing. outlook webmail light is not an option...i just want to get my outlook webmail to how it was before with mountain lion!
    please can anyone assist?

    We've been expereincing a similar thing:
    first attempt brings up a standard looking OS X file choosing dialog box which does nothing after you pick a file
    the 2nd attempt brings up the expected OWA attachment chooser dialog box and we can then attach normally
    We've told our users to switch to Firefox/Chrome (or enjoy attaching things twice).
    Have you seen any solutions?

  • "Save As..." problem in OSX Mavericks

    When I try to "Save As..." or open a file the "Save As..." dialog box will often point me back to my Documents folder, instead of the folder that I most recently opened or that the document I am working on originated from. How do I fix this? It used to be that when I pressed "Save As..." the dialog box would come up and point me to the folder that the file originates from. Thanks!

    Thanks wallfur,
    It believe it is something that must be solved by the developers, and it's a great idea to go to there website and post the issue.  When you do, please remember my issue with the save as dialog (and also with the 'Open" dialog is that the dialog box always opens at the same small default size and place.  Please add to your posts that we want it to open at the the same size and location it was when we last closed it.  It's all part of the same issue.
    My specific issue is with Photoshop.  In a work session I scan a hundred or so images in to Photoshop, crop them, work on them and then Save as them.  Each time I open Save as, it opens to a folder containing hundreds of sub-folders and I'm forced to enlarge the dialog window to find the folder I want to save to.  I Save as every 3 to 5 minutes or so and it's a big pain to have to resize that window every time.  And I'd like the window to be on the right hand side of the screen so I can still see much of my other work.  I will post my issue to Adobe.  Please, and anyone else with this issue, post wallfur's issue (what folder opens with the window) and my issue (what size window and where) to the site of the developer you have the issue with.  It's all part of the same issue.
    Thanks,

  • OSX Mavericks bluetooth wake up problem

    Hello there,
    i have a weird problem with osx mavericks on imac 27" late 2011.
    From the prefresneces of bluetooth, i choose not to wake up if i press a key or click my mouse. The thing is that the xomputer actually wakes up! So i guess that the setting isn't stored.
    Anyone with the same problem or a solution? thanks in advance!

    Have you tried a SMC reset?   Pop out the battery, press and hold powerbutton for 5s then put back battery, connect magsafe and press powerbutton again.
