First and foremost - get out of the habit of using root unless absolutely required. You will not be able to use root in the real world and using it now for this kind of activity will simply introduce wrong habits.
Working as root most of the time ... Bad habit. Bad bad habit. Anyone teaching to log in and stay as root ... shame. In business, auditors will note the habit and user will be reprimanded, up to and including 'go find a new job - you are not the SysAdmin'.
Secondly - you need to understand xhost, and indeed 'display ownership'. When you log in to the Desktop, your screen is 'owned' by a userid. You use xhost (unwisely most of the time) to give permission to others to display on your screen.
Thirdly - you need to understand the influence of DISPLAY variable - it tells programs where they should display... on an authorized display ... such as the one authorized by xhost.
Since you want to do it the wrong way, use the following sequence:
1) Log all the way out of Linux and the desktop (all the way - ensures you don't have screwed up environment)
2) Log in (whatever user you wish - even the bad habit, go stand in the corner, root user)
3) Open a new terminal and give permission to the world to use your screen and get the IP address of the machine. Prior to this xhost command do NOT su (nor set DISPLAY); do not cross Go; do not collect $200
4) Open a new session, preferrably on a different computer (but open new terminal and then 'su - (otheruser)' will do)
5) Under that new user, tell it to display on the IP address and screen from step 3
6) Run xclock
But ... to install Oracle s/w, the 'right way' is to simply log all the way out and then log in to a new desktop as the non-root Oracle owner (on the machine; or using Xming or Xceed or ...; or using VNC client such as UltraVNC or TightVNC)
Did you notice that logging in as root by habit is a bad idea?

Hi Teodorafrombc,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your computer is becoming unresponsive, you may want to see if specific applications are causing this behavior. Try using the Force Quit menu to check for unresponsive applications:
Using the Force Quit feature of OS X makes an application close, even when it is not responsive.
Important: Normally you should not need to force quit an app to close it. When an app is forced to quit, any unsaved changes to open documents are not saved, so try these methods to normally close the app first:
Choose Quit from the app menu. For example, in Safari, choose Safari > Quit Safari.
Choose Quit by right-clicking or control-clicking on an app's icon in the Dock
You can find the article with these steps here:
OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3411
If your display is going blank or seems to be going to sleep unexpectedly, try these steps first:
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
You can find the article with these steps and more information here:

CK40N - Still open even after applying the note

Hello Everyone!
Greetings!
Experiencing issues in the costing run. SAP ECC 5.0
After the marking job completion observed that there are some u2018Still Openu2019 items. After some research found the SAP notes u2013 0000542790, 0001321242 & 0001402978.
SAP note 0000542790 is not applicable to us as the client is on SAP ECC 5.0. For the short term fix, as per the note 542790 have executed the command u2018=cksuu2019. It worked.
To apply the notes 0001321242, 0001402978 was testing in the test systems and I still see the u2018STILL OPENu2019 items even after implementing the SAP notes 0001321242 and 0001402978. Both the notes have been sucessfully implemented and also verified the corrections.
Any suggestions/advice, please. Thanks in advance !
Satish

Hi Satish,
There can be valid reasons for the 'still open' Materials.
The following are reasons for 'still open'
1. the materials were included in another costing run so there was an
overlap in released cost estimates
2. there was already a released cost estimate for those materials so
the system did not allow for another one - this could have been costed
manually and released manually (ck11) rather than in ck40n
3. there was a stop in the job that ran to release them (you mentioned
periods were closed). After the restart, some of the statistics could
have been incorrectly updated.
Furthermore, please see the note:
542790 Inconsistency correction: Costing run statistics
If need need to find the 'still open' Materials.
If you run tCode 'SE16' and view the table table KALM which contains
the entries for all materials costed within the costing run.
Field 'KALM-FEH_STATUS is the cost estimate's status after step costing.
1) Find cost estimates created originally within cstg run
So, you have to select all entries of KALM for the specific costing
run which are having KALM-FEH_STATUS = 'KA'.
This is the number of cost estimates which should have been marked in
the later marking step.
2) Find cost estimates released successfully
The set of released cost estimates is given by selection of table
KEKO: specify KALAID and KALADAT and FEH_STA = 'FR'.
3) Find missing cost estimates
Compare the results of 1) and 2):
Which material/plant have an KALM entry, but not a released cost
cost estimate ?
> this will be the set of cost estimates you are looking for...

Still sleeping even after setting Energy Saver to Never

I'm trying to use my 2.53 GHz (Late 2009) MM as a server but even after setting the 'Computer sleep' preference to 'Never' in the Energy Saver System Preferences panel, the MM still goes to sleep. This isn't a big issue for me since I can and have used Wake On Lan apps/scripts, but it's a major pain in the you-know-what for other people who need to access this server over the internet.
Could there be some persistent overriding preference somewhere that is allowing this MM to go to sleep when in fact it should not be because of my setting? I've searched but can find anything.
TIA for any help with this.

Interesting... I had an EyeTV that I did install on an older G5 PowerMac that I stopped using before I migrated to this MM back in March. I'll check to see if the EyeTV app was also migrated over and uninstall it if necessary.
I would have thought that the EyeTV software would default to a "Never Sleep" state considering it's purpose. I'll check this possibility out when I get home after the long weekend.

I have always been able to open e-mail photo attachments even after trnsferring them to the desktop or a thumbdrive, but after moving the last two

I have always been able to open e-mail photo attachments even after transferring them to the desktop or a thumbdrive, but after moving the last two to the desktop and trying to open them I get the message that ColorSync is unable to open files of this type. I believe they are jpegs.

When I attach a PDF to Apple Mail on Mountain Lion, it is an icon. When I send it to an iCloud mail destination, the attachment arrives and is presented as an icon, whether on OS X, or in IOS 6.
I suspect that the recipient's mail user agent is responsible for the full image .vs. icon behavior, and there is nothing you can do to prevent it.

Unable to open windows using boot camp. Get message "The bless tool was unable to set the current boot disk." Any thoughts, Thank you.

Unable to open windows using boot camp. Get message "The bless tool was unable to set the current boot disk." I am using an Imac , Lion operating system, and Windows 7. It worked a few days ago. Any thoughts, Thank you.

Note that nowhere in the Boot Camp instructions does it tell you to use Disk Utility to format the Windows partition. The Boot Camp Assistant program creates the partition & sets the +partition scheme info+ of the disk as appropriate for the Windows installer but the Windows installer itself is responsible for formatting the new partition with the appropriate +file system scheme+ (NTFS for Windows 7).
If you follow the instructions in the Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide to the letter you should have no problems installing Windows.

I had original iPhoto app from 2007, but in the last year it stopped working seemingly out of nowhere. Now I just installed iPhoto 9.5.1 but it won't open even after downloading the iPhoto Library Updater. My pictures are lost in the abyss.

Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

Last time I updated pages I lost features I liked and was unable to open some pages files. Now I see the features I liked are back but I have a lot more files to worry about. Will I be able to open files created in 5.2 if I upgrade to 5.5.3?

Last time I updated pages I lost features I liked and was unable to open some pages files. Now I see the features I liked are back but I have a lot more files to worry about. Will I be able to open files created in 5.2 if I upgrade to 5.5.3?

Within reason, Pages v5.2 documents are forwards compatible with Pages v5.5.3. Apple introduced the single file format document as a default with Pages v5.5.3 which is not backwards compatible with Pages v5 on Mavericks.
However, they also provided a File > Advanced > Change File Type > {Single File, Package} menu that allows you to change the current Pages v5.5.3 document into the backwards compatible Package type document. You would follow this transformation with a File > Save operation to complete it.
