Update to 10.4.6 causes loss of wireless mouse

I just updated to 10.4.6, and now my Apple Wireless Mouse doesn't work correctly. It shows in the list of bluetooth-connected devices, and the button functions, but moving the mouse does not move the cursor.
Have tried starting from scratch multiple times. In Bluetooth Setup Assistant, turning on the mouse produces flashes from the mouse LED as usual, until the Assistant announces that the connection is successfully established, when the LED goes out, and stays out. Neither moving the mouse on a surface, nor waving something past the optical sensor causes the LED to emit. Hence, I've now got a working bluetooth mouse button, but no mouse.
Anyone having similar problems?

Hi
I remember a few people with this problem after updating - but having searched briefly, I can't find a specific fix.
However - I do suggest you download & apply the 10.4.6 Combo Update.
The combo update does seem to fix a number of different issues that users have had after installing the standard 10.4.6 update.... so it's certainly worth a try.

Update to 10.5.2 caused loss of wireless connectivity

After updating from 10.5.1 to 10.5.2 I couldn't connect to Network (wireless). Router function checked out ok with ISP. (I could get online wirelessly with my PDA.) I could get connectivity with my MBP via ethernet cable. I also couldn't connect wirelessly to my printer (which I could do before). Spent a lot of time with AppleCare tech. but didn't solve anything. Wound up reloading OS and restoring w/Time Machine. I'm back to v.10.5, and all works well. I'm reluctant to upgrade to anything further at the moment (maybe to 10.5.1...?). I'm concerned that I'll wind up with the same problem if I go up to 10.5.2. Any thoughts where I should go from here?

I'm "replying" to my own message because I need to modify it! With v.10.5 that I wound up with, I lost functionality of iTunes, plus a couple of other apps. Feeling masochistic, I then updated (again!) to 10.5.2. The various functions are back working fine, but AirPort cannot connect. I therefore connected my MBP to the router with an ethernet cable. Everything works OK, but it would sure be nice to function wirelessly like I did before the update! Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW, on my system, I have Parallels and WinXP, but I haven't used it in several weeks; might there be some sort of conflict there, even if I'm not using Parallels?

What are possible causes for frequent loss of wireless mouse connectivity other than the batteries ?

What are possible causes for frequent loss of wireless mouse connectivity other than the batteries ?

Wi-Fi or another interference source. Try turning off the Wi-Fi and see if the problems continue. If that solves the problem, see if you can set your Wi-Fi to run in the 5 GHz range.

Update to 10.4.11 causes loss of application launching

For some weird reason after updating Leopard Server 10 10.4.11 Build 8S169 from 10.4.10 causes the loss of application launching after a few minutes of activity.
All services appear to be running. All clients are able to connect to the server and FM Server 8.0V2 which is also running on this server still seems to be running fine. The configuration is 3.5GB RAM, Dual 500GB SATA using SoftRAID mirroring.
I can connect to the FM Server using FM Server Admin but CANNOT connect with the Server Admin Tools which have also been updated to 10.4.11.
I can't login using slogin either. I CAN connect using ChickenoftheVNC but it doesn't do me any good as I cannot launch anything.
I have reapplied the combo update 10.4.11 to no result as the same thing happens after 10 minutes. Any applications that ARE running continue to behave normally.
The error I am getting is -10810 which is a non-specific unexpected internal error.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Asa

My mac is causing loss of wireless connectivity on pc's

Okay so i have a new macbook and the airport card appears to be working fine. my friend has a new sony vaio. I can connect to their wireless network just fine, but for some reason, when i connect, even if it turn air port off, the vaio will not connect to the wireless network. It recognizes the network and shows full signal strength, but reports that there is limited connectivity and will not browse the internet. I have tried a lot of things such as restarting the viao, disconnecting and reconnecting to the network, but the only thing that seems to work is to unplug the wireless router and then plug everything back in. Does anyone know of a reason air port would cause this type of interference? Thank you so much!

I cannot confirm that other Wireless routers in my area share this same issue. I haven't tried to update firmware yet, as from the few I had talked to you generally don't want to touch something like that until a last resort.
I use a program called "Netstumbler" to detect other networks around me. As best as I can tell, when my router disappears off the grid, a lot of other routers do as well. I've used Channel 1 on G frequencies because the average number is as follows:
Channels:
1 - 1 person (me)
6 - 4 people (unknown)
11 - 1 person (close neighbour).
As to which neighbours are using wirless routers, Im unsure. About 30 meters away from my router, as mine unfortunately is placed agaisnt the house wall, is a complex that houses about 20-25 families. My computer also shares the same wall, but a floor above (like stated) for connectivity.
As for firmware, I believe I'll have a look into which Im running and hopefully update. I think it might not hurt even looking into an update for my PCI card as well.
Anymore help regarding this issue is appreciated. Thank you

ORA-14402: updating partition key column would cause a partition change

Hi,
When I am trying to execute an update statement where i am tring to update date values emp_det from 11-oct-2010 to 12-nov-2010.
Oracle throws an error :
ORA-14402
updating partition key column would cause a partition change
I think that this is because emp_det is a partitioning key of a partitioned table.
Oracle documentation says that
"UPDATE will fail if you change a value in the column that would move the
row to a different partition or subpartition, unless you enable row
movement" .
alter table t enable row movement;
I did not understand what is meant by "enable row movement".
I cannot drop the partitions and recreate it after updating the table and also i don't have proper priviliges for enale row movement syntax
because of the lack of privileges. How to solve this is issues with out row movement and recreate partition.
Can this be done by a developer or is there any other way to execute update in this case? its urgent.. pls help..
thanks in advance..

I did not understand what is meant by "enable row movement". Each partition in partitioned table is physically separate segment. Assume you have a row that belongs to partition A stored in segment A and you change row's partitioning column to value that belongs to partition B - you have an issue since updated row can't be now stored in segment A anymore. By default such update is not allowed and you get an error. You can enable row movement and Oracle will move row to target partition:

HT5704 Hi, Two recent updates for my iPhone have caused crashes (down the white lead via iTunes).I have "fixed" but not sure of the cause?

Hi,
Two recent updates for my iPhone have caused crashes (down the white lead) via iTunes.
I have "fixed" but I don't know the cause?
Each time the update does n't complete.
The download does n't happen.
The computer & internet connection are good.
It is as if the Apple server does n't complete?
The phone stays in recovery mode, until you reset and rebuild in iTunes.
All software is up to date, but I can't find the cause
ANY IDEAS?
Regards,
P.
<Email Edited by Host>

No error messages.
It just fails to complete the download, so recovery mode is the next step.
This can be over a period of eight hours or more!
I have so many (original) Apple USB leads that I would n't know if I have been using the same one (if it was faulty).
Does this sound like a "common" problem?

Exported Final Cut XML from Imovie09 causes loss of Audio Sync

I have recently upgraded to ILife09 and tried a process that always worked in ILife08 but now get Audio Sync problems.
I have created an Imovie project that is 2hours and 50 mins long and wanted to export it to Final Cut Express as XML. This used to work 100% with Imovie08. However, with this latest version of Imovie, when exported to Final Cut Express, the first 45 mins of the XML movie is well out of sync (Audio / Visual).
Has anyone experienced this?

Hi Roberic,
there is a bug in iMovie '09 that causes loss of audio sync when you use custom slow/fast motion. This has been experienced by many users. See for example this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9152271
I don't know if this applies to exports to .xml but it could well be that your problem lies here. There are some workarounds, being the easiest one to only use what the slow motion slider snaps to instead of entering custom speed percentages.

After update, keyboard and trackpad does not work on MBA but wireless mouse works. I don't use a wireless keyboard. Stuck at login because need to enter pw. Anyone have this issue? Please help!

My Macbook Air (13", mid 2011) right after I did the Maverick OS update. My keyboard on Macbook Air is not working and it says "There isn't a keyboard connected" (Bluetooth Keyboard Setup). I do not use a wireless keyboard. Apparently my bluetooth works because my wireless mouse works. I am currently stuck at my login screen not being able to get in because I can't even enter my password. I am, however, able to login as guests and get to the Keyboard viewer to type things with my wireless mouse. I really need my keyboard to work to use for my job. I need help please!

I forgot to mention that my power button did work but everything else, keyboard and trackpad, didn't! Anyway, I shutdown my laptop, slept, and turned it back (in hopes that it might work instead of restarting it like before). Now my keyboard and trackpad works! Thank goodness! I was about to go to the Apple store upset too!

Can anyone explain why my Apple Wireless mouse annoyingly disconnects every 4 or 5 minutes or so? It then remains disconnected for about 20 seconds before reconnecting again? Batteries are good but at a loss ... worked fine for year!

Can anyone please explain why my Apple wireless mouse keeps disconnecting from my imac? The batteries are good and the mouse in good clean order. Never had an issue previoulsy but now every 4 or 5 minutes the mouse diconnects and takes 20 seconds or so to connect again. Anyone else experienced this one?
Thanks
Jon.

Some folk have reported a similar issue apparently caused by the batteries being a bit loose in their box. The suggested fix for that is to insert a thin piece of cardboard between the battery cover and the batteries.

After Update to Lion I can't use USB-W mouse

After I Update to Mac OS X Lion (on my MacBook Pro) and I plug in my USB - wireless mouse. This mouse doesnt work, but on Mac Os X snow leopard works with no problems :-( (note: I dont use Mac Mouse, because Iam used to use my mouse...)
thx for answer
Jan Strnadek

I am having the same problem with my mouse, it is a Logitech not sure what kind. Really annoying because my macbook is a older one and the trackpad is not the multi touch one so i tend to use a usb mouse from time to time. And my mouse is a must when playing games, for example when playing Minecraft. You really need a mouse. I am convinced that this is one of many bugs that will be found in Lion. (loving it so far! exept for this bug) and I think/hope it will be fixed in the first coming software update!

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
