Translator Widget not responding

My Translator Widget will not respond. The language select menus say "undefined" all the time. I have tried restarting it and repairing my disk permissions, but nothing helps. It's been doing this for awhile, and, as far as I can tell, nothing happened to trigger this peculiar behavior. Please help!

Hi again:
You are most welcome - glad to help.

Translator Widget not working

Yes i am connected to the internet and the translator widget says data unavailable. Whats up with the widget?

I am also having a problem with my Translater Widget not working. When enter a phrase to be translated I get the following message: "Data unabailable." I don't understand what is happening. On day the Widget is working the next day it is not. Would appreciate knowing how to resolve this problem.

Translation widget not working

My Translation Widget in Dashboard has stopped working. It shows "undefined" as the second language and I can't enter text anyway. My other widgets appear to work fine. I've tried deleting both plists and restarting but no love. I have a second partition with a boot volume on it (also 10.4.11) and that one works correctly so I tried copying its plists over (and restarted) and that still didn't work.
Any idea what I need to do? Will I have to reinstall on my usual volume in order to get it to work?

Try this first...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.

Hi all,
Just installed Leopard fresh on my late 2008 mbp and everything is just swell, apart from none of my dashboard widgets working
Why did you do that? Was there some problem?
The dashboard fires up OK but any widget I drag onto the screen doesn't work. e.g. the clock has no hands, calendar has no date etc .. When I close a widget it crashes the dashboard completely and I'm dumped back to the desktop.
Try creating a new user account and see if the problem occurs in that one.
When posting a crash log, you might want to remove any personal names, etc before making it public.
I don't see anything in your log, but it pays to be careful.
Your computer name in the crash log seems to have hyphens in it. It's best to have a computer name with no spaces, no special characters, etc., but that may not be the problem here, just a suggestion.
The crash seems to involve vImage and a graphic png or at least the libpng library but I don't see anything specific.
Someone else with better crashlog smarts will probably help you more.

Menu widget not responding ever 8 seconds for another 8 seconds

Hi there,
I have purchased Muse template and have build website with Muse CC (2014) (www.janka-photograhy.ch)
It's one page template with scrolling effects on it.
On every page except from "Home" I have horizontal menu widget. Now, on next page (Über mich)
menu stops responding after 8 seconds for another 7-8 seconds and then functioning normaly again for
8 seconds and so on. This only happens on "Über mich" page. On every other page (Angebot, Galerie, Kontakt)
everything works fine. Any ideas why is this happening?
Thanks a lot.
Dalibor
P.S. Problem is arises in Firefox, but not in IE.

I can reproduce it on my Mac with Safari. Hovering across the menu, it becomes un/responsive every 7, 8 seconds.
What says the developer of your widget?
It doesn’t help, but it is a really nice site you designed!
I would try the following:
- What happens if you delete for testing reasons the slideshows on this page?

IWeb '09 Widgets Not Responding?

So I just recently upgraded to iLife '09 and every thing's working great except for the widgets in iWeb. I was trying to use the HTML snippet, and instead of the little box that pops up to put the actual code in, I had an empty box on the screen that didn't do anything no matter how many times I clicked on it.
I searched around and wasn't able to find anything related. Any ideas?

The solution to the problem was that iWeb had to be installed in the actual applications folder and not in a sub folder labeled iLife '09.
Thanks anyway!!

Another Remote DVR "STB Not Responding" Issue

I've had my FIOS install for a couple weeks now and 3-4 days ago tried to activate the Remote DVR feature. In all other respects my system is working fine. I can login to the FIOS TV Central page, see my STB in the listing, it shows that Remote DVR is enabled.
My STB works fine, records, has the guide, widgets, etc.
My computer network is also working fine. STB shows in my router control software, has a static IP (which does match the IP in the STB settings).
But no matter what I do, the TV Central site will always error with a "Set Top Box is not responding"
I've turned on and off the feature on the STB but that did not make any difference. I see in my router that there are 8 non-editable Port Forwarding rules set up, all identical.
192.168.1.101 Verizon FIOS Service Any HDM_CR_001404_QIP-6416_000-03081-42316-021 - TCP Any -> 35001 Active
Any thoughts here? Reading through the forums it would appear this is a somewhat common and finicky issue. Lots of folks see it and it "magically" gets better, or worse, or flip flops between.

The connection between your DVR and one of Verizon's Servers sometimes 'breaks', and in my experience, cycling the router and/or the DVR won't help. The connection needs to be reset from the Verizon end. If you call or use chat to the service people, they can usually fix it while you are online with them.
It doesn't involves wiping out anything on your DVR.
I went through this a couple weeks ago. Everything except worked, except for online, it always says the unit was not responding. I think I waited about a week before I finally ask Verizon to fix it.

Error Message: " '[name of my computer]' did not respond. (error -8)

I know that this topic has been submitted a million times, but I need personal attention now. The topic discussions have been really helpful except for the fact that my ichat video STILL DOESN'T WORK. I read and do all the sets of advice and instructions and STILL NOTHING.
My main message usually always says, " '[name of my computer]' did not respond.' The only differing message I've received is from my mom's laptop (a Dell Latitude D610, Intel) which says that " '[name of her computer] has declined'. I've checked out the error reports which are always labeled (error -8).
Once I was able to connect, with absolutely no hitch, when I was sent an all out video conference chat from a G4 Mac about 4 months ago. My ichat hasn't worked since which is why I've been trouble shooting since then.
Based off of the advice, I opened ports 5060, 5190, 5220, 5222, 5297, 5298, 5353, 16384-16403 on both TCP and UPD and turned the firewalls off in one then turned them on again.
I've read the iChat support and they all say that they are compatible with tons of operating systems and platforms. But, my video still doesn't work to other computers or work in general. Please can someone tell me how to get this to work? Puhleeeease. I've been at it for months now....
Thanks!

I, too have had the same problem, but only recently — maybe coincident with recent updates to iChat — and I too would like to know what error -8 means.
I am running a Dual 1GHz PowerPC G4 Mac with automatically updated software, connected via ADSL at 512/128. The Internet Interface is a router/firewire/switch/modem (D-Link DSL-G604T) and I have programmed it to keep the required ports open. The audio input is from an iSight: audio out to some external speakers from line out. Programming hasn't been changed for months, and the problem has only occurred recently, so it doesn't look like a Firewall or address translation problem.
In my case, I tried several things:
1. I tried to initiate an audio chat with someone who has a Mac Mini PowerPC with most updates on it, and a 56K modem. I have had many audio chats over many months with this person.
Some days ago, it failed to complete a connection with the comment that my end didn't answer. I take this to mean that the final handshake message from the my end wasn't sent, since the connect window indicated the other side had responded positively.
The buddy on the other end then initiated an audio chat session to which I responded. This time, error -8 was accompanied with a message that the other side had failed to respond to the final handshake.
I presumed that it was some sort of glitch either on the network or in my computer and we finished the conversation on the phone. The system has been rebooted several times in the meantime, and the integrity of the system disk checked: that should have got rid of any local anomolous state
2. The exact same thing happened today when I attempted to communicate with a new buddy introduced through email. This new buddy has recent (but unknown to me) Mac equipment running OS X, and a broadband connection.
We were testing the connection after she had set up iChat with an AIM screen name to be ready for a Saturday sched to step her through installation of some difficult to set up software.
At that point, I realised my first failure wasn't a system glitch, and found this message board.
So, any help from anybody?
Keep in mind that this is a recently-introduced problem on a stable (other than Apple updates?) system that has been running on audio and even one-way video with 4 different buddies (three on Macs and one on Win XP with AIM) for months.

Translation Widget Inoperative

For some reason, my stock translation widget just doesnt work anymore. The translation portion of it says "undefined" and has some glitchy looking font written behind the drop-down menu. And the "translate from" either says Chinese (Simplified) or English, which are the two I have been using most frequently. Actually, now that I think about it, ever since I changed my language preferences to Chinese after logging in one time (changing it back to English eventually), I have experienced this problem; however, that should not have messed up my computer.
I have tried taking a new widget from my roommate's Macbook to overwrite my broken one, but it didn't change a thing.
Sláinte,
Josh
P.S. What in the world is a kernal_task in my Activity Viewer? It says it's taking up 453MB of RAM! That's absurd.

I actually don't even have the ability to translate anything, so I can't say that is my problem... it simply either says English in both the "translate from" and "to" fields or Chinese (Simplified Han) when I press the swap button, so I don't get a chance to translate from either of the languages. Pretty obnoxious. There has to be a fix short of restoring my software from my disc. that would mess my computer up.

Translation Widget Problem

Hello everyone. I am a pretty new apple user. Got to say im loving every minute of it. Well, two days ago my computer auto updated and since then for some reason my translation widget (came with comp) does not work. I can not type anything in it and it I cannot choose languages to use. Is there any way to reinstall it?

I was having the same problem with the translator widget and did what you said: put my preferences folder on the desktop and restarted it.
This led me to believe the problem was in the original preferences folder.
It was! I found, at the bottom of the folder, the widgets. I just trashed them, and
dragged the folder from my desktop back to my library replacing the new one that had formed. Restart and you should be good to go.

"user did not respond" error

Hello Everyone
I am having what appears to be a fairly common problem and am having some trouble resolving it.
I used iChat with my Uncle and Aunt successfully until approximately 2 weeks ago. Now we are both receiving the error that we 'did not respond' to each other.
We have turned off all firewalls (that we know of), and bypassed routers but are still receiving the same error. It may be possible that I need to configure my modem but am having difficulty finding the information to do that.
I would also like to be able to determine where the problem lies. As they are the only ones that I chat with - would someone mind doing a test chat with me? They have reported not being able to chat with others as well.
I use a Speedstream 5200 for my DSL connection. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi SarahJ,
There are several ways of doing this.
iChat works best if the LAN you have is either one complete LAN with no subnets.
One way of doing this is to make sure that if you are going to use DHCP that only one device is doing this.
When you have a modem and router then you can put the modem into Bridge mode which will open all the ports.
Or you can put the router into an Access point. This would open the ports in the router.
Whichever device is then the routing device to your LAN will need to have the ports open with either UPnP, Port Forwarding or Port Triggering.
This is where I think your modem is upto at the moment. When connected to it directly it will need the ports opened by one of the methods listed above.
Now we could open the ports in the modem as it is. If this is by Port Forwarding or Port Triggering because it does not have UPnP we could have problems if thr router can not be put into an Access Point Mode and does not have UPnP itself.
This is because iChat had problems when Port Forwarding or Port Triggering is used twice on one LAN as both these methods involve Network Address Translation (NAT)
So what you need to do is create a LAN that only uses only one DHCP if one has to be used and only one variant of NAT if it can not be avoided.
I use this site for Reference http://portforward.com/routers.htm
It will tell you, if your device is listed, what the default IP address is and the User ID and Password is if it has them.
I would then look around the set up pages for UPnP.
I would also set the devices to Static IP addresses if the modem can not be put into Bridge mode or the router into Acess mode.

Translation Widget won't work, any ideas ?

My translation widget will not open the language windows and will not transpose language windows.

What's the name of the widget? Has it been working and just stopped, or did you just install it?
I use this translation web site.

Well, it wasn't a DNS issue, it was a routing issue that affected ISP customers in half of the country. https://community.shaw.ca/thread/9284?start=0&tstart=0
I can confirm that iTunes will now open and is functional. It seems that if the application can't access some internet resource immediately when it launches it will immediately lock up and never come back! No offline mode??!?!

Translation Widget in Dashboard Problem

Just bought a new Macbook.
I click "f12" to open dashboard.
Go the Translation Widget.
Type a word in Japanese for an English translation and vice versa and then try other languages. All I'm getting is a
"data unavailable" message.
Do I have to install something to use this widget?

If you're talking about the systran one... (blue). ... mine quit working too.
... so I thought... actually it just takes a really long time to connect and process ... in the mean time it doesn't tell you it's doing it.
Type in what you want to translate... hit go... close the dashboard... wait a minute... then reopen the dashboard and voila .. not the most efficient way but it works.
