Very weird disc problem! Only Witcher disc gets stuck inside everytime

This is not trolling. Some people on Reddit thought I am trolling but I am not.
I have three game discs, all work fine except Witcher 3. Everytime I eject it with the controller option or by pressing the button on PS4 it gEts stuck abd I have to manually eject it. Why is this happening ? I had my PS4 for 8 months now and it's only in the past two weeks this happens everytime I play Witcher. What can I do? Please help.

Is the Whitcher disk physically different in dimension than normal, even by a small amount, or slightly thinner or thicker?

Hello fuchs (guess), If you cancelled while downloading the 4GB Lion, no problem, download again. Snow Leopard should run (start holding the option key).
If you cancelled during the install process, I do not know. In this case you could try to start with the CMD + R keys pressed, and choose the restore, which may work if the creation of the restore partition of Lion has finished.
If that does not work, reinstall Snow Leopard with the CD (start holding the C key), after that download the Combo Update 10.6.8 to update the Snow Leopard completely, then redownload Lion (App Store, click "purchases" while holding the Option Key, find Lion, click "install"). If you want to have your own copy of the Lion installer, you have to copy the installer to a Memory stick or burn to DVD before you install, see else where.

Very weird font problem

I have a very weird and annoying font problem with the left menu bar of iTunes 8.2(23)
Some but not all menu items are displayed like a mix of Hebrew and unprintable caracters.
But once the menu item is selected, the font is back to normal !
The weired thing is that TV Series and Shopping cart menu items are displayed (in French, because the interface is in French) as expected.
I don't know if it is related, but I have Russian-PC keyboard installed too, Adobe CS4 (which installed Adobe fonts) and my OS interface is in French.

How did you go about finding this Lucida Grande.ttf? I did a search and didn't find it. I have the same weird font thing in itunes. I recently installed a whack of fonts from another computer. Any help would be appreciated.

HELP ME! My computer is posessed! Very weird power problem!!!!

I am using an iMac - first generation of intel-based iMacs - and I have a very weird powering-on and powering-off problem.
When I plug my iMac into the wall socket, it starts up on it's own. When I shut it down (using BOTH the apple menu OR the power button), it starts itself right back up. When I put it to sleep, it goes to sleep and then wakes up immediately. It does restart normally, though, so it seems that my iMac simply has a problem with being OFF!
Help meh! I'd like to save a trip to the Apple Store if I can help it!

IDVD problem burning and multiplexing - gets stuck but ejects the DVD and the DVD doesn't play

I am having trouble burning DVDs. Everything seems to be working fine during the iDVD project creation. I can watch the movie and select scenes within iDVD. Then, when I go to burn the DVD, it gets stuck at the burning/multiplexing stage - the wheel just keeps spinning and says there is about a minute left. Yet it ejects the DVD and the DVD won't play when inserted into a DVD player. It will show the intro and the scene selection pages but when you click on one of the scenes, it gets stuck and doesn't play. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled iDVD. The problem persists. It seems like the burner itself is the problem. What can I do to fix it? I have Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 with a 2.8 GHzintel Core 2 Duo and iDVD version 7.0.4.

Hi
Multiplexing error is a very complex problem due to many things (long long list following) - one common but not obvious reason is that material on the iDVD menu goes outside the TV-Safe area (or just touching it).
So first - turn on TV-Safe area and move any object well inside of this.
Wide screen stretched - usually (as I think) it is due to making a 4x3 movie in a 16x9 wide-screen project OR the other way around. This forces one to on flat-screen TV (or other) set the presenting view right - My has 4x3, wide-screen, zoom and auto-wide-screen and I have to switch this by my remote for some DVD I've made "wrong" way.
Now my long long list on Multiplex Error
LONG LONG LONG LIST
Multiplexing Error
PART One.
Use of strange video/audio material e.g. .avi, .wmv, .mp3 etc.
I only use.
Video - StreamingDV (miniDV tape via FireWire) and
Audio - .aiff (as on audio-CDs) (else converted to this .aiff 48KHz)
Photo - .jpg (.bmp known problematic)
Chapters !
A. Using strange letters in video project name e.g. +,/; etc. keep to a-z and 0-9 strange letters in project name e.g. +
as described by Donnyboy69. Does the title of your project have any symbols or decimal points in it. If so, that is why you are getting the error. I had a project that had a + sign which caused the same problem. I renamed it without the symbol and low and behold, it worked.
B. Location of Chapters
• Can’t be at start or end of movie (Skip first/start one - iDVD sets this by it self. At the End - no need)
• Not in a transition (or within 2-3 seconds from it)
Important when from iMovie HD6 or previous - Now also observed when using FCE 4
PART Two.
from Robert Modero.
"Multiplexing Error. Problem during initialization of tracks"
Simply remember to add subtitles to your Quicktime files and menu buttons.
Once I did that, I was back in business.
from Boise Jim
Do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
I always makes a DiskImage first and test this so that it runs OK
I use only - Verbatim DVDs
I use only - DVD-R
I burn at an as slow speed possibly e.g. x1
This gives good DVDs
PART Three.
Multiplex Error
Chuck, Chicago 2/7/2009.
Back again. Here is what I have found to work. I also have and use a LaCie DVD-R/RW DL external drive and a LaCie external hard drive as well. Since yesterday I have tried a few ways to burn a themed iDVD project having four 56 minute movies on it, amounting to 226 minutes onto a DVD DL disc, capacity 240 minutes. Apple tech support really didn't know what to do but gave me a very good tip. I had two options left. Apple tech support's tip was to try disc image. One of the replies on a thread with this subject said not to, but my experience today is good. Put your project onto "Burn to disc image," under "iDVD, file." Yesterday encoding took me 23 1/2 hours. Overnight for iDVD disc image, encoding took 21 1/2 hours (again) while I slept. This morning I tried to copy/burn disc image to a DVD with Roxio Toast 7, and it stopped near the end of the burn with some kind of "error" message. So then I tried Utilities> Disc Utility> Burn icon, and followed it through. Be sure to click the DVD DL drive in the window "Burn disc in.". I had one other problem though. At the end of a 46 minute copy, it started to verify, and at the end of verify it rejected the burn. So I tried again, and when "verify" appeared, I clicked on "Skip." The disc finished burning and is doing fine and well. A long and tortuous process, but at last something works. I made several additional copies using Disc Utility. Best wishes. Chuck, Chicago.
2. Disconnect any other external devices not absolutely needed.
e.g. external USB/USB2 hard disks, other FW hard disks etc.

(Not a 'guy' but I will answer!)
First, I do not think that mixing wide-screen and standard makes a difference in iDVD.
Second, you should use a better brand of DVD disk. Also, many of us have experienced fewer problems on playback with DVD-R disks. Recommended brands here are Verbatim, Maxell and Taiyo Yuden. Memorex and TDK are not consistent and may not give you a correct burn. They apparently have fewer layers in the composition of the disk. I have always used Verbatim DVD-R disks and have not had any burn problems.
Also, choose a slower burn speed, 4x or less.
Third, to determine if the iDVD project will burn properly, create a disk image file (from within iDVD, go File->Save as Disk Image) and test it. Mount the disk image and then open DVD Player (in Applications) and view your project. If it plays correctly, you can then burn the actual DVD disk from the disk image file using Disk Utility.

I did everything I've seen suggested, but a friend (who used to be an Apple Genius) suggested that I do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
It worked, and I got a clean burn from iDVD.
Hopefully this can help other people.

Well, I finally got it, and it was odd enough to post here incase anyone looks this topic up again. Many things were tried, including burning the unedited film, the edited film without titles and chapter markers, abbreviating the chapter markers in case length was the issue (remember the old iMovie used to truncate them when moving to iDVD?). In the process, I noticed that one, and only one, chapter marker was on the same line as the title marker. All the others were on the line above. The only way I seemed able to change that was to clip a few seconds of film. After that last clip, the offending marker took a place on the line above, as were all the others. That run published, compiled completely and burned. That's one for the books.

To add my experience with Multiplex Errors using iDVD (7.0.4), I recently created two iDVD projects
Video from both passed from FCE 4.01 with chapters
One project worked fine in creating disk image file
The other gave Multiplex Errors
I tried suggestions to remove special characters and no chapter marks at beginning, but nothing worked
Note that I've used iDVD for dozens of projects and this is first time I've run into Multiplex Errors
Anyway, for problem project, I tried an experiment where I removed all chapters in FCE and passed to new iDVD project
This time multiplex errors gone
So had something to do with chapters
So now I tried numerous experiments to remove individual chapters and try again creating disk image with new iDVD project
After numerous tries, I was able to narrow problem down to 1 "Bad" chapter mark
That is, when I left the "bad" chapter in my FCE project and passed to iDVD, iDVD gave multiplex error
When I removed "bad" chapter mark (and others in), no multiplex error
As a final experiment, I moved "bad" chapter mark about 5-10 sec's beyond original point and passed to iDVD, the multiplex errors now magically went away and I was able to finally create my disk image.
I have no idea why this worked, but thought I'd mention here in case someone else runs into similar problem.

In addition to Bengt's fine advice, burning errors can occur if you have located any of your menu buttons wholly or partly outside of the safe TV viewing area. Go to your main project menu, then click on View/Show TV Safe Area, to check. Drag into the safe viewing area any buttons that are outside the safe viewing area.
Russ One - suggest this
Multiplex Error-There was an error during muxing preparation
One thing that worked for me was to export the video w/o chapter markers as a self contained movie (thereby not loosing the edits & etc). Then make a new FCE project and import that movie into a new sequence and add the chapter markers. I've used "-", "&" and "," with no problem in the chapter names. Removing the markers or exporting without them did solve the problem but renaming them with just numbers 1,2,3....5, did not solve the problem and since this problem seems to happen with with iMovie as well, it would suggest the problem is in the video or audio and in combination with the chapter markers iDVD just can't handle it. The only other possibility is that both iMovie and FCE share the same or similar chapter marker code that some how is corrupting the markers.
Summary - What to try
1. Chapters
• Only A to Z and 0 to 9 in chapter title
• No Chapter mark at very beginning of movie
• No Chapter mark in or within 2 seconds from any transition in movie
2. TV-safe area for buttons (no one outside this)
3. Safe re-boot
4. No other external devices connected - that are not needed
SDMacuser adds to this
• On #4 ... No ext. devices. Some think this applies mainly to ext. FW. Not the case. Also applies to ext. USB2 as well (not to mention flash drives too).
Do not leave 3rd party devices / camera / camcorder plugged in unless it is being used with iDvd's One Step process. Certain web cams can trigger this also (especially ones with added features like LED light/s that draw additional power from the FW or USB bus).
5. Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-up hard disk
6. Make a DiskImage first - reduces where problem originates
7. Trash iDVD pref. file
8. Make a new iDVD project
9. Movies in project with same aspect ratio e.g. 4x3 or 16x9
10. No other programs/applications running during iDVD process. e.g. Internet, screen & energy savers

Very frustrated....ADE keeps getting stuck on authorizing document

Anyone know what to do to fix this problem? It was working fine until a week ago and now every time I try to
download a book from my library, it downloads it and then gets stuck on "authorizing document" and never goes anywhere else.

are the library books in right format. e-pub or pdf . are they allowed to copy. uninstall and re-install yet ? worked for me. you have to watch the librarys formats though and check authors rights. have to have ade username and password set before you install it or it gets weird.

Problem with internet after getting stuck at loading screen

i'm having a LOT of trouble with my computer.
earlier today, after installing avast antivirus, my macbook completely freaked out, the internet wouldn't work so i restarted. my computer was stuck at the loading screen so i spent 40 minutes on the phone with apple support, and eventually after getting it to work in safe mode, we restarted and it loaded. this was after doing a "repair disk permissions" from the utility disk.
however, now my internet is having TONS of problems. firefox & chrome won't work. in safari, only facebook and my email will load. i have restarted my router but nothing will work. i'm scared to restart my laptop in case i run into problems again and get stuck on the loading screen. thankfully apple is one of the websites that will work...
advice? i'm completely computer illiterate and have no idea what information you need to help. i just know that, as a law student, i really need internet access but none of the websites i need will load. help.
also, as a note - i don't have access to internet other than my own right now & i don't have access to any other computer right now... just this one.

Uninstall that software. If it has an uninstaller, use it. If not, you will have to do so manually by checking the Preferences folder for all the straggler files. There are no viruses for osx according to Apple - http://www.apple.com/why-mac/faq/#viruses
After doing the above, repair permissions and restart your computer.

Someone else has a problem with volume button getting stuck?

My volume button gets stuck when I keep pressing it, it's software or hardware issue?

Restore as new, if that fixes the problem it is something in your settings or backup that was causing the issue.
If it does not fix the problem, you have a hardware issue.

Very weird internet problem :I

Hi everyone, I am calling for all the experts because I have spent my last two days resolving this problem without any success.
I moved to a new location Saturday where I set up my Airport Extreme to provide a wifi network. The extreme is connected to the ISP's modem in Bridge mode. ISP modem address is 192.168.1.254. My Macbook gets usually the 192.168.1.4 IP address, DHCP is the 192.168.1.254. I have in this network my MacBook and the wife's Vista on a desktop PC. MacBook is up-to-date with 10.5.8. (Or, better to say, that was the starting system version)
What I experience is, that some of the websites are working in my MacBook (meaning they are loading in), while some not. That means white page, no content at all, loading goes forever. For example youtube does not come in. Adobe does not come in. Apple.com works. I couldn't find any pattern why a site can't load.
Safari and Firefox makes the same, so it is probably not a Safari bug.
The machine with Vista (on the same network) works with every webpage (using Firefox). I didn't had this problem on the old location.
I did the followings:
- I took my MacBook back to the old location, where the old network I used for years still works. Same problem. Never had this before. Then a got back to the new location.
- I connected the MacBook via cable to the Extreme (Aiport in MacBook disabled), same problem.
- I created a new user, nothing.
- I created a new network location, nothing.
- Reset Safari, nothing
- Tested browser capablities in various sites. I had some which were not loading at all, but the ones that worked gave back a good result, meaning every plug-in worked.
- Reset modem, reset Airport Extreme, nothing
- Changed wifi channel (from 6 to 4), nothing. I live in a village, no wifi pollution anyway.
- Deleted Safari and System cache, nothing
- Verified Disk permissions, some problems were found, repaired them, nothing.
- With the help of apple support I deleted some System configuration files which were automatically generated by new start, nothing
- I did a complete archive and install
- I tried out everything without an update (that means 10.5 and Safari 3.0.4), almost the same.I had some pages which were working after 2-3 min waiting, but with youtube for example I get some weird, almost only text content with small pictures and no video. After 2-3 min wait of course. And a message, that java is old. Hit the link, went to Adobe, slowly loading but I couldn't download the .dmg, Safari says network error, server could not be found.
- The I did an update (through Software Update, bandwith was O.K). System 10.5.8, newest Safari, the same problem that I had before archive and install. Youtube won't load at all.
- Then I did a complete new install with erase. Nothing, problem stays!
So, now I am sitting in front of a brand new installed MacBook with 10.5 (no updates yet after installation) and I really don't know what to do now. The problem seems to be not software related. The problem seems to be not network related (Vista works on the same network). Can this be a hardware problem? I really can't imagine it...

I did talked to the ISP and got the access codes to the ISP router. It's a WLAN broadband router, by operating mode I see the following option checked:
Wireless ISP: In this mode, all ethernet ports are bridged together and the wireless client will connect to ISP access point. The NAT is enabled and PCs in ethernet ports share the same IP to ISP through wireless LAN. You must set the wireless to client mode first and connect to the ISP AP in Site-Survey page. The connection type can be setup in WAN page by using PPPOE, DHCP client, PPTP client or static IP.
So, would it mean, that if I connect my Extreme in bridge mode, than I do not have double NAT and that is the correct way of connection?
To clarify the situation, I have a microwave antenna and that is connected to the ISP router. Then a LAN port of the ISP router is connected to the WAN port of the Extreme. (I did try to connect it to a LAN port of the Extreme, everything was the same).

Weird nVidia problem (only at 1024x768)

Hello there,
i have a small problem with my nVidia GFX and playing games, in every game the 1024x768 resolution in somewhat garbled... This happens only at 1024x768, when i try lower (down to 640x480) oder higher (up to 1600x1200) settings, everything is ok...
So, whats now my problem? Since i am not as good in english, its hard to describe for me. It seems that only every second line is drawed at 1024x768, and this happens to every game i try...
Well, pictures say more than words...
This is what it looks like at 1024x768:
And this is what i should get normally:
This is the first time i experience this, and i just don`t know how to handle it. And as 1024x768 ist just the perfect res for my aging machine to play games (higher = slower) i ask you here....
Some specs of my hardware/drivers:
AMD AthlonXP 1600+
VIA KT133a
nVidia GeForce FX 5200 LE
Drivers are the 1.0.8178-16's from the repos and kernel
is also from the repos, kernel26 2.6.16.9-1... Xorg is 7.0...
So, how can i deal with this, or, has anyone experienced this too?

Funkyou

You need to add modelines to your xorg.conf file. An easy way to do such a thing is to backup your xorg.conf file first. Then, pacman -S hwd
Then, type hwd -xa
It will create a xorg.conf file for you. Edit it as needed and then look for a line in the modelines section that has Interlaced in it. Comment out that line or remove it to fix your issue.

Very weird monitor problem, betcha can't solve this one.

OK I have a MacBook Pro 2.4GHz with 4GB of Ram, it's fully up to date with Lion, and is connected to a Formac W2300-1U 23 inch TFT Monitor (DVI, VGA, 1920 x1080, 1000:1, 5ms, 400cd/m²) through a HDMI to Mini port adaptor.
Now, the problem is the monitor flicks off, then on, at first I thought it was just randomly, but today I isolated the problem to something specific that make it happen. When I open the preference panel, and click on 'Trackpad' as soon as the video demo starts to play the monitor switches off then on.
It's totally weird, what on earth could be causing this? Any ideas?

ok well i have no idea what happened. i started out again with a fresh installation of JBoss, and it worked. no clue as to what was wrong. musta been some JAR that was out of place or something.
thank you for your help!

Very weird font problem which appeared suddenly

I have no idea how to describe the problem as I am no native speaker. The following screenshot shows the problem, it has yet only occured within Firefox:
http://i.imgur.com/zNegO.png
The circled slash should be either fi, fl, or ff (like I have indicated)... as I am typing these examples they also appear as these things, they are not exactly the same btw (also I hope they are coming out regulary for you, otherwise reference the screenshot).
What caused this and how can i fix (there it is again, when typing f-i-x) it? Thank you.

VERY WEIRD!! Only 802.11a works

I have a new AEn and I'm having a LOT of problem set it up.
After hours of trying to figure out what was wrong, I finally came to the conclusion that only when I select "802.11n (802.11a compatible)" under "Radio Mode" does my wireless work.
This leads me to the conclusion that only 802.11a is working on my AEn.
And this is totally unacepatable, as this is the worst standard for wi-fi.
Anyone has an idea?
thanks.

With the Airport Utility application under "Airport, Wireless" with your Radio Mode set to "802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)" set the Channel to 11 and see if that helps.
I had this problem till I realised because my MacBook was brought in the USA it meant it shipped default with "Wireless Card Locale" set to "USA" rather then "Worldwide". By default the Airport Extreme will advertise on Channel 13, but becuase my Airport card is for USA it only covers Channels 1 to 11.

VERY weird iPod problems...Please Help!

Okay, folks, do I have a doozy of a problem here.
Okay, first off, when I connected my iPod to the computer a week or so ago, it told me that there was a firmware update, so I downloaded it and installed it. That is where my problems began. Soon after, the iPod began to freeze a lot while playing songs. I would reset it, but it would continue to freeze while playing songs.
Next, I turned the iPod on yesterday after having not used it for 2 or 3 days and when it came on, ALL of my songs were gone. It said that there were ZERO songs on the iPod. But the kicker is that it still said that I had the same available space as when I had 3500 or so songs on it. (Don't worry, I have back-ups of those songs, so I didn't lose them).
So, I figured that I would try to reformat the iPod and maybe then things would start to work. That doesn't happen. When I try to run the updater (with or without the iPod initially connected via Firewire), it just sits there on "Initializing...." and freezes.
So I then figured that maybe I should just try to run the software that came with the iPod and maybe that would help. Well, last night I ran the software and after running through the entire line that lights up on "Waiting for iPod" 4 or 5 times, it told me that the iPod needed to be formatted. So I clicked the "Format" button. This morning, I came to check on things and it was still "Formatting" with no end in sight. It did not take this long when I originally installed the thing.
That made me think there might be a problem with the harddrive, but when I went into "Diagnostic mode" and ran the HDD scan, it came back as "Pass". Now, that may mean that there are still problems, but it's nothing I can think of how to fix at the moment.
This is my last resort before I call Apple and probably have to pay to get it fixed! By the way, I've had it since January of this year. Thanks for any help you guys can be!

First of all, replying with "I have had the same problem and Tech Support hasn't been able to help me at all!" is not going to help anyone.
In fact, it's kind of considered "thread-jacking" and is considered rude.
As for my problem, it has been solved (some-what). I succumbed to downloading Windows XP Service Pack 2 (which I had always heard was death for iPods so I avoided it) and things are now running. Not as smoothly as they did before updating to the latest iPod firmware, but still they're running.
My advice for the future, if you're having problems, start your own thread. Don't jump onto someone else's thread because no matter how similar your problems may be, there is no possible way that your problem could be EXACTLY the same as that other person. There are going to be differences between computer configurations, etc.

VERY WEIRD MIC PROBLEM! After latest upgrade(23.4.A.0.546) Z2

Hi Guys, I've upgraded my phone to 23.4.A.0.546. After this upgrade i had problems with microphone on calls. Btw, every other apps using mic is ok. Here are the cases that mic does not work or work. It's very annoying. Any ideas?

Sergio, I believe you have no other alternative but to wipe all data and start from stretch. Do you have any 3rd party apps that are not from Play Store? Most of the time they are the ones giving you problem. Try transferring their apk to cloud, delete them before updating. Than put them back if you need them after completing the repair.
