Update to 10.4.6 Word does not start some documents anymore...
have big problems with word.
some documents do not start anymore, mostly komplex documents....
I have had problems with MS Word after two other OS updates (including 10.4.6). This may not work for you; however, it did for me (and it was what MS advised me for my font corruption indication problem): Re-boot holding the shift key down (to perform a Safe Boot). Hold it down until the red "Safe Boot" nomenclature is seen on the log in screen. Starting up in a Safe Boot clears the font cache automatically. Then, just re-boot normally. This might work. If not, no gain, no loss. Hope it helps you.

Since updating to Firefox 22 Twitch.tv does not load the player anymore
I just updated to Firefox 22 and no Twitch.tv's player simply does not load anymore. Just a black rectangle where the player is supposed to be and if I rightclick in that area, I get the same context menu as everywhere else, meaning that the player definitly did not load. Youtube works fine though.
This gotta be the worst ff upgrade ever, every single thing breaks

Skype does NOT start with Windows Anymore (start S...
My Skype NO LONGER starts with Windows anymore!!! I HAVE to manually open Skype!!! I cheked the options and "start Skype with Windows" IS checked!!! I tried unchecking the option and rechecking it, made no difference!!! how do I fix??
Just because Skype isn't starting up automatically doesn't mean it isn't trying. Other applications you have loading at startup could be slowing down Skype's ability to start. You can run msconfig ( Start - Run (Wink key + R) - "msconfig". Under the startup tab you can see if Skype is set to start or not. You can also uncheck everything else but Skype and see if it comes up them. If it does, using a process of elimination you should be able to determine the application causing the probelm. If you do not see anything for Skype you can use the registry files provided to toggle that feature on/off just as the Skype program attempts to.

[SOLVED]dhcpcd does not start on boot anymore
Hello,
I reinstalled Arch last night to try and be as to the letter as possible because I had three bad installs( or so I thought https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=195192 ) and it was going well. I tweaked some SSD Optimization configs and went to bed.
Today I wanted to install OpenBox so first I tried to update my system with pacman -Syu (without reading the change log or anything of course) and I couldn't download anything. A quick ping to google.com gave an unknown host error. Nothing has changed over night and I rebooted the machine last night a couple of times and I always had internet connection. The guide said that dhcpcd runs automatically on boot and I looked through the change logs at the places I understood and couldn't find anything about this being disabled on boot now. I do see that it was updated in the last 24 hours but again, nothing about auto run on boot being disabled.
Little things like this bug me, I can enable the service using systemctl and call it a day but I was wondering if I was the only one experiencing this. If I'm the only one then it probably isn't a good thing.
SOLVED: Did not read the Beginner's Guide within context of the installation medium.

What packages were upgraded? If I am understanding you correctly, dhcpcd was enabled and working fine before the upgrade, but after the upgrade dhcpcd appears to be disabled. Is that correct? Two bits of informaiton you should post here are the complete list of updated packages and the output of
systemctl status dhcpcd
SirMyztiq wrote:Nothing has changed over night and I rebooted the machine last night a couple of times and I always had internet connection.
You previously say you upgraded then went to bed, so that would be the change. I'm a little confused by these seemingly contradictory assertions.
I apologize for the confusion.
I'll give you the current list of packages as soon as I install a browser on my machine(I'm on my laptop) but I can tell you that all I had last night was the "base" and "base-devel" packages installed. I mainly did tweaking like setting the scheduler dynamically on my ssd to "deadline" following the SSD Optimization wiki and read a bit about OpenBox to make sure I get it right. I also rebooted the computer a couple of times to check for that "time out" bug I mentioned. It all checked out, so I went to bed.
I power her up today, try to do a system update and I wasn't able to. A ping to google.com gave me an "unknown host" error. I checked both the "status" and whether it was "enabled" with their respective systemctl commands and both gave me the feedback that it was not active nor was it enabled.
I'll edit the original post to be more clear and look like I have some grasp of English. -
IPhoto does not start to update after my iMac was updated to OS X Yosemite.
iPhoto has been "paused" after my iMac was updated to OS X Yosemite. iPhoto does not start to update when I click "UPDATE" in App Store "Updates". The circle on the left top corner just keep circling. Do you know how to fix this problem? I cannot download my photos to iPhoto without updating it.
Thank you LarryHN,
I could not follow what you have explained to me as I struggled to find iPhoto 9.6. Anyway, while I was struggling, I managed to update iPhoto somehow. Finally, I can use iPhoto!
Thank you very much for your quick response.

Satellite A series does not start up after BIOS update
After bios update with downloaded utility my notebook does not start up.
Did this case covered by warranty?Im not quite sure if this would be covered by warranty. You should contact the ASP in your country for details but I presume its not covered.
PS: Did you try this workaround:
- remove battery, disconnect the AC adaptor
- wait ~ 40min
- connect both devices again and try to power up the notebook -
Microsoft Word does not quit
MBP X.4.6
I upgraded my computer from a G4 powerbook to a MBP. In the process I also went from system X.3.9 to 4.6.
Since opgrading I have problems with Microsoft Word.
When I log out or shut down Microsoft Word refuses to quit. It hangs and I have to force quit it to get the computer to log of or shut down.
Any suggestions to fix it
Thanks
EricIt also includes updates prior to that.
You can look at the whole list to see what's been
fixed from 11.2 to 11.2.4.
It's a combo update.
Well, yes, and I remember that 11.2.0 (Mac Service Pack 2, and the version I am at) supposedly addressed stability issues with Word, but I can't find any info on the download page that suggests 11.2.1-11.2.4 does anything else to address Word stability (e.g. 11.2.1 deals mainly with an Entourage issue for example). -
Hi, everybody.
I've just checked for some possible updates on my iTunes (running on Windows).
But if I click the proper buttons to start the download (as I'm always used to), the pop-up just minimizes and appears once again after a few seconds; so I am supposed to click once again the same button, but the process does not start and the pop-up appears again.
Is there anyone who might help me please?

I update my Mac to version 10.9.2 and now my printer does not work anymore. I did all the software updates and I do not understand why my mac does not recognize the printer anymore?
Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

Firefox does not start up after an automatic update. Every time i try to open it, it just prompts the Mozilla Crash Reporter.

Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!Did the crash reporter send any crash reports?<br />
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br /><br />
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]<br /><br />
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"<br /><br />
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br /><br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox<br /><br />
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

I've moved my Aperture library from one computer to another using Finder.
I merged the library with one which was already on the computer.
Now, the photos I imported have reference to the old path name on my old computer.
How can I update these references as "Relocate Masters" does not work in this case?Just one suggestion to be able to reconnect all at once:
Create a smart album containing the images with missing masters:
File -> New -> Smart Album, and add a rule: File Status is "Missing" (or File Status is "offline")
Then select the images in this album and go to the File menu:
and select: File -> Locate referenced File
If you are lucky, Aperture will reconnect all at once, if you point the first image version to its counterpart. -
Can not update tiger and safari does not start
Hi everybody,
I have actually two but probably interrelated problems: First, safari does not start and second, I can not update tiger.
It all started a few days ago on my MacBook (Intel). Somehow, Safari produced an error (I only guess that it was Safari because I was downloading a movie clip) and Tiger was frozen. After rebooting, the whole system had problems (e.g., Safari and Skype were not starting). I tried to reinstall and archive mac os x but with no success. The problems were growing actually even worse (e.g., slow) and at some point in time, Tiger was not even starting. Thus, I did a full new installation of 10.4.8 (delete and install). Afterwards, it worked first but after the automatic software update, the system told me that their was an input/output error (???) during the 10.4.10 update. Afterwards, the whole system had again problems (slow and problems with even booting)!! Thus, the software update made it even worse. So, I did again a full installation (delete and install).
I have to update my 10.4.8 system, because I also have iLife08 that needs at least 10.4.9. However, I don't know what to do to avoid again these update problems??
In addition, despite the full installation, Safari is not starting. Thus, there is still some problems but I have now clue where this comes from as it is newly installed?!
Any ideas?? Thanks...
CrobusCrobus, welcome, since you are starting from scratch with each re-install why not try Kappy's Extended Hard Drive Preparation.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5203987�
Do all steps from 1 thru 6, it is by far a more maintenance oriented than an Erase and Install. After the preparation, install OS 10 from your DVD, then download the OS 10.4.10 Combo Updater.

prompted to update iTunes today and now it does not work. tried reinstalling and caanot successfully reinstall.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

My UPAD lite does not start after recent update. I have lots of info in it. Can anybody help me to get it back? Can I somehow undo the update? Thanks
"UPAD lite?"
I expect that you mean some version of iPad.
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.
