Trigger not responding & extremely noisy acquisition

I have constructed a
- N channel
- N Samples
- Analog Triggered
Data Acqusition system. The program was working fine except that the singals were unsually noisy.
So I replaced a regular ribbon cable with a shielded one. However when doing this I did not turn off the computer.
Now the board does not trigger with the regular trigger pin(TRIG1). I checked the impedence of the pin and found that it was really low.
Does this mean that the pin is damaged?
I tried to use TRIG2 but it works sometimes and not at other times.
The other analog input channels seem to be working fine.
The unusual amount of noise also remains. (Which cause the acquisition to trigger even when there is no signal and hence is very an
noying)
Thanks.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
PFI0/TRIG1 and PFI1/TRIG2 should operate in the same fashion. You should be able to implement a digital trigger using either connection. A digital trigger will fire when an edge is detected on a particular pin. You can configure a rising or falling edge trigger. The trigger input accepts a TTL level signal which means if you have a rising edge trigger configured, the trigger will fire once the voltage changes from 0V to at least 2V. If this transition occurs the trigger will fire. Therefore, if you have noise spikes on your trigger signal that are large enough to trigger your acquisition, you will need to add some type of filter to remove the high frequencies of the noise. This can usually be acc
omplished with a simple single-pole RC filter.
If you feel confident that your PFI0/TRIG1 pin is damaged, you can return your board to be repaired. However, in most cases you should be able to get by using either PFI1/TRIG2 or one of the other six PFI lines.

Airport Extreme not responding

I just got a new Airport Extreme, and used it without problems for several days. Now it has suddenly stopped working. I've both unplugged and held down the reset button, as described in the Setup Guide, but nothing has any effect.
The symptoms I see:
1) The status light on front is completely dark.
2) The tiny green status lights over the ports in the rear flash green.
3) I can't connect my Mac to the Internet even when I plug into one of the ports in the rear of the Airport Extreme. If I connect it to the DSL modem that the Airport Extreme is plugged into, I see the Internet just fine.
Should I assume the Aiport Extreme is dead and get warranty service, or is there something else I should try first?
Mike

I(f you have done a reset and it does not respond then get it replaced.

Keep getting "not responding" message, extremely slow, have tried rebuilding data base, tried removing and re-installing. Still the same

HT201263 display extremely faint; sliders do not respond

My itouch seemed dead to the world, but close examination revealed an extremely faint screen. Battery charged.
Slide bars not responsive to my touch; cant unlock it. Restored software; no improvement.
Comments? Thanks, Chris

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Lab-PC-1200 not responding in Win2000

I was using a functioning system using a Lab-PC-1200 DAQ card and Win98 and LabView 5.1.1. I upgraded the computer to Win2000, and now I am having problems.
When I first run my application, everything seems fine (I read my analog inputs from the card correctly), but when I run a portion of the application that involves data collection in a While Loop, I get an "Error -10452 @ AI Single Scan. NI-DAQ LV: No inerrupt level is available for use."
After a while of trying to troubleshoot that problem unsuccessfully, I try to go into M&A Explorer and Test Resources and get "The device is not responding to the selected base address." I was not getting this error before.
So my first goal is to find out why the device is no longer re
sponding. I am running NI-DAQ 6.9.3. In the Win2000 device manager, it says everything is operating correctly. I have tried rebooting, reseating the card, deleting the device then rebooting to re-install the drivers, and nothing seems to work.
I have read through several other complaints of similar problems, but no solutions yet. Any other ideas out there?

Hello,
I was able to find a document which is similar to your problem, although a different operating system. It sounds like for your case, you have an IRQ assigned, so that will differ from the information that I found. Regardless, I will post it for information that could assist you. I suggest checking the resources and seeing if there is anything else that is sharing your resources. If there are, either assign a different IRQ (if available) to your device, or disable the devices that are sharing. The other suggestion that I have for you is to try the device in a different computer to see if you can isolate the problem to either the board or the computer. If it is the board, then you can send the device in for a repair.
Good luck.

================================
The following trick was used on a Windows98 machine to assign an IRQ to a Lab-PC-1200 board (AT-interface) when no free IRQs were available. The lack of free IRQs caused an error -10452 during any buffered acquisition. In this case, we deliberately created a resource conflict with LPT1 and the DAQ Card, both using IRQ 7, to get the DAQ card working. The "trick" is to know that the user cannot simultaneously use LPT1 and the DAQ card and live with the conflict. Before trying this procedure, confirm that the DAQ card installed properly, and the only problem is the lack of an IRQ assignment to the card because none are available.
1) In Win9x, enter start >> settings >> control panel >> system >> device manager >> select "computer" >> properties >> select "View Resources" and IRQ. Browse the list and determine if any free IRQ levels are available - also determine what resources which are currently used are not needed. (*note : do not mess with any entries that you do not understand). In this case, the user identified LPT1 as a used resource that he would not need. Press "cancel" to get back to the device manager tab.
2) In the system control panel device manager, select the DAQ card lacking an IRQ resource under "Data Acquisition Devices". Select "properties" and go to the resources tab. Uncheck "Use Automatic Settings" and select a configuration that allows entry of an IRQ. Select IRQ and press "Change Setting", scroll through the list of IRQs until you select one used by a device that you know you can live without. In this case, we selected IRQ 7 for LPT1. (note - you can also try reserving IRQ resources under the "reserve resources" tab).
3) Reboot the computer.
4) Enter Device Manager again - observe that the two devices are now showing a conflict on the selected IRQ - this is normal and on-purpose.
5) Enter Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX). Select the DAQ card and test resources. The device should now pass the test.
Other Suggestion:
In the BIOS, some computers allow you to select PCI only, ISA only, or both PCI/ISA for various slots, and thus reserves resources for those slots. You may be able to enter the BIOS and select "Both PCI/ISA" to free resources for use with ISA cards if they are reserved for PCI cards.

If my device does not respond in MAX does it mean it is damaged?

I was using an example vi to acquire digital data, however the output LEDs on the vi front panel started to show random results. So I closed the vi down and tried again but nothing happened at all? So I went to check acquisition in MAX and the following error message was displayed:
The device is not responding to the first IRQ level.
Does this mean I have damaged the PCI card? If it does, will it cost a lot to get fixed and how long will it take to get it back in working order as I have to complete my labview project by early december.
cheers

Hi Hannah
I'm using PCI-6034. I was able to acquire data in MAX and LabView vi's for the last couple of months so I am presuming that it must have been set-up correctly, although I could be wrong. I am also concerned by the fact that I could smell a hint of burning coming from the PC when I was performing the last acqusition before MAX could no longer acess the card.
I am guessing that this means the card is fried? Can it be repaired or will it have to be replaced?
cheers

Acrobat PRO XI not responding when using Send File

We have 3 new Windows 7 Pro 64 bit workstations with latest service packs, Office 2013 latest service packs and Adobe Acrobat XI ver 11.0.4.
I have assigned the AD group Domain Users to the local pc Administrators group.
when trying to use the send file as an email attachment, the email is sent with the attachment but Acrobat goes to "not responding" state
When I login as me Domain Admin, works fine. When I login to my pc as one of these users works fine.
What am i missing?

I have the same issue, everything I do seems to only fix it temporarily. I can't believe we pay over $100 for a piece of software and the only support option is their forums, I can't call or even chat with a support rep, that is insane.
I have clients that this same issue is happening to and telling them it's fixed every other day only to have it break again and have no where to look for answers is extremely frustrating. Please help us out.

"Apple TV is not responding" [ATV1] after 10.7.3 upgrade

Yesterday I purchased a movie on the Apple TV and then tried to sync it back to my Macintosh and got the error "Apple TV is not responding. Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689." Having recently upgraded Lion to 10.7.3 I do not know if the root cause of this problem is Lion 10.7.3 or iTunes 10.5.3.
I first verified that the Apple TV was working fine and then for good measure unplugged it and re-plugged it and it came up fine. It is connected via Ethernet, so I knew that the wireless network could not be the source of the problem. I hadn't changed any security settings on my Mac recently, but to verify that the Firewall settings were not the problem I turned off the Firewall, and that still did not resolve the problem.
Finally I was able to solve the problem from within iTunes by doing the following:
- In iTunes right-click on the Apple TV icon in the sidebar under DEVICES to display the context menu.
- In the context menu there should be an option to Transfer Purchases from "Apple TV". Select that option.
- The recently purchased content on the ATV will then be transferred to the Macintosh. And after that you will be able to sync content back to the Apple TV again.

FCS 3 is working as usual for me, although FCP did re-profile the RT Extreme settings and took a couple of seconds longer to start up the first time after updating. What else have you installed or updated?
I was also on the 10.7.3 beta. It did not change anything in the behaviour of FCS 3 there either.

Does this help your "user did not respond" problem?

Here’s what was going on.
If I call a buddy #1 > I get the “user did not respond”.
If I call buddy #2 > I get “user did not respond”.
However, If I call buddy #3 it works right away, no problems what so ever.
This was a constant problem, the same result over and over again when attempting to connect.
Three out of the four of us have something in common
So, how come when I call buddy #1 and buddy #2 does iChat displays “user did not respond” ? Thinking about it, we all have multiple Macs (except buddy number 3) on a network and the same router. So it appears that when I try to call someone with more than one Mac on the network I get the error.
Again, all three of us had something else in common we were all using a DMZ service on the router to direct internet traffic to a Mac which was not running iChat (ie a server).
Time to experiment
Buddy #1 disabled DMZ then I called him.. nothing but the “user did not respond” message. I disabled DMZ (now both off us have DMZ off) I called him again (after restarting iChat) and it worked.
We both restarted iChat, Macs, Routers multiple times and it still worked 8 out of 10 times. Now, this is a huge improvement on failing to connect every-time. I did however remember reading somewhere about changing the default port number.
More Settings
The default port number iChat uses also stops my video and audio from working but this is easily fixed.
Open iChat and make yourself off line then navigate to:
iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Server Settings.
Change the default port to 443.
Close the window and make yourself available
iChat now connects to video and audio calls every single time.
So, for us it looks like disabling DMZ and changing the port number worked perfectly.
Instructions.
1. Quit iChat
2. Log into your router (enter the routers address in the address bar of your internet browser)
3. Look for a DMZ setting, possibly listed within the WAN SetUp section.
4. Disable DMZ
5. You may need to restart your router
6. Configure iChat's defualt port number (shown avbove)
7. Make your-self 'Available' on iChat
8. Start a video chat.
I would highly recommend that you pass this information on to your online buddies you wish to video or audio chat with. This configuration has to be set on both the caller's and and receiving buddies computer
Equipment used whilst I was testing
Myself: iMac G5 20'' - Integral iSight - Mac 10.4.6
Buddy #1: iMac Intel 20'' - Integral iSight - Mac 10.4.6
Buddy #2: iMac Intel 17'' - Integral iSight - Mac 10.4.6
Buddy #3: iMac Intel 17'' - Integral iSight - Mac 10.4.6
Netgear DG834 Modem/Router Firmware: V3.01.29
MacBookPro 17", G4 Powerbook 17", G5 quad, G5 iMac, G3, mac mini x4 Mac OS X (10.4.6) Good luck!

Hi Jan,
Some notes.
The Certain Buddy problem is almost certainly down to NAT issues.
DMZ is an extreme form of Port Forwarding and is therefore a NATted service on most devices.
Netgears are know to kave this problem with iChat even with the same model with the same firmware.
It means the problem continues in Port Forwarding, Port Triggering and DMZ.
UPnP (Universal Plug n Play) is not a NAT service so will get around this.
However there seems to be somthing quirky with Netgear's implemintation of this that needs it started up at least twice to work properly.
The need to change the port from 5190 to 443 normally occures on those devices and firmware that Port Forwards AND list protocols to open the ports which then lists port 5190 twice.
Changing the port in iChat and then disabling the Port forward on port 5190 TCP also should get around this problem.

The device PCI 6036E: Analog Input error:"the device is not responding to the base address",Output :No signal

I am using PCI 6036E DAQ card, DAQ 6.9.2. , I have not connected to any external device.
When I tested card(in Test Panel of MAX2.2,DAQ 6.9.2) an error appearing �the device is not responding to the base address� � then I pressed Yes, Then TestPanel window appearing�
In analog Input Tag, there is an error �-10805�. This error also appearing when I run the standard analog input samples (use Delphi 6.0).
I tested analog output functions in TestPanel, Delphi Examples, LabView 6.1. There are not error appearing but there is not output signal (using Oscilloscope to see).
Output, Input digital functions are working correctly.
Next I try to foll
ow all the instruntions as recommended:
-Changing TO another slots PCI
-Reinstall Os WinXP,98SE�
-Use another Computer�
But all of the cases are still not working.(the above error still appeared, no output signal)

Nvd,
I'm sorry to hear about the problems that you are running into with your DAQCard. I can understand your frustration with the errors that you are seeing. You mention that you have tried to do some troubleshooting, I was wondering if you have tried all the troubleshooting techniques listed in this KnowledgeBase:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/DCFCDB240788F8D486256D6A00834D80?OpenDocument
If you have tried all of those things, I would suggest one additional thing to try. I would suggest updating your NI-DAQ drivers to version 7.0. These drivers are the newest versions of our Data Acquisition Drivers, and can be downloaded from our website here:
http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/webcategories/85256410006C055586256BBB002C128D?OpenDocument&

If you have tried all of the above troubleshooting options, please post a detailed description of what you have tried. This may help to clarify what is going wrong.

Error "web pages are not responding"

What is the cause of this Safari error? What needs to be done to prevent it?
"Web pages are not responding. To reload this webpage, all pages in other tabs and windows must also be force reloaded. Do you want to reload this page?
Force reloading might cause you to loose information you have entered"
Several threads reference it when it occurs after performing various kinds of actions, and the author's ascribe it to their particular operation, but obviously it is a more general error.

> look under "User Diagnostic Reports"
No entrys exist in that area. Looks like the system cleaned itself up earlier today:
11/11/11 1:06:49 PM SubmitDiagInfo[3887] Cleaning up expired diagnostic messages database at path: /var/log/DiagnosticMessages/2011.10.12.asl
Using OSX 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.1
After posting my message I performed the latest Software Update.
But my question is also general -- what are the causes of this error? I have read assertions that it relates to the newest Flash Plugin, or Java, etc. but I would like an authoritative explanation. How can something cause ALL tabs to need to be reloaded? Is it caused by something on a web page, or by something internal like the cache getting too large or corrupted or what?
This error is associated with extremely high % of CPU time being taken up by Safari Web Content.

When I'm on Facebook it keeps stopping or not responding then it will work & then it stops. It keeps doing this & is very slow.

When I'm scrolling down the msgs. it keeps stopping & saying not responding. Then it will start up again for a few seconds & then stop again. It's very slow. When I'm playing Farmville or Frontierville it's extremely slow too.

for what it's worth, it seems to be worse on my netbook which is running windows 7. the laptop, which is running linux ubuntu, is slower than I'd like, but doesn't freeze up as badly. and the desktop, running win xp, I rarely use. :)
Marge, if you want to add me in Facebook, look for the same user name I have here. I play both Farmville and Frontierville.

Preview is not responding even though it's been forced to quit

Hi,
My preview is not responding, and even though I've forced it to quit several times, it is still not responding.
I've tried to go to Finder --> Go to folder --> ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.plist --> and moved it to trash.
But none of it is working!
I'm studying for my exams, and I really need my "preview" to work.
I would be extremely happy, if anyone could help me.
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

'User did not respond' - Has something changed with ichat?

This seems to be an issue for nearly everyone. I have been using ichat video succesfully for over a year now. For some reason, in the last month or so, the video has stopped working on all three of my macs (powerbook G4 Tit, new mbpro, and imac g5 at home)
From my tibook (10.3.9)...I can sucessfully connect to the apple test video without problem. The person I am trying to videochat with can also connect to the same apple test video with no problem. However, we cannot chat with video OR audio with each other.
I have done a bandwidth test, and I am on a 1.5 T1. I am behind a company NAT (cisco 1700 router, Novell server handling the nat/pat) He is in LA and has succesfully be chatting with people on the east coast, so I don't think he is the issue.
Here is the log from the connection doctor:

As it has been for nearly everyone else on the list, I am extremely frustrated. I have never had an issue using ichat, but now I can't get it to work from anywhere. I have been able to get everyone in my family to switch to imacs so they can chat with my kids....and now we can't get it to work at all.
What am I missing? I find it hard to believe that this is so hard to use that so many people are not able to use it.
Any help or new suggestions would be most appreciated.
sqe

I'm new to Macs and bought a MacBook Pro for myself and partner mostly for the iChat AV feature. Neadless to say, I'm frustrated beyond belief. I've spent over 25 hours trying to get it to work to no avail.
Each of us can connect with the Apple test buddies with no problem. We can't connect with each other though, except for two times that it actually worked.
I've troubleshooted everything I can think of. I've called my ISP (Verizon), Netgear (my wireless router), and just this morning I called Apple. I was at work so, I'll have to call them back when I get home but they don't seem to even know about the problem. Which is astonishing considering how many people are reporting this on the forum.
I can connect to anyone while on my office wi-fi but only to the Apple test buddies when at home. That's why I called my ISP and Netgear. I took the router out of the picture and still had the same problem at home.
It makes no sense that the Apple test buddies do work but not real people.
