Very weird importing issue

I just got a new PC recently. When I go to rip a CD or convert a file to any format, if it's the last song of an album the same thing happens: the progress bar fills all the way and then it stops and ITunes freezes. All the other tracks will convert fine. I did not have this issue on my old PC and I bet that if I tried it again there, I wouldn't have this problem. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on and how to fix this if possible?

I should also mention that if I import multiple tracks I either get most of them or a few, and if I try to convert a track by itself the same thing happens.

Very weird dhcp issue

We've started 're-vlanning' our main location here, breaking up depts
into their own vlans.
All seems ok so far, aside from a real doozy.
For the IT vlan, we have one address that will not talk to our web
content mgmt appliance. It's the 2nd address in our assignable pool,
and it doesn't matter if it's dhcp or statically assigned, that address
will not talk to that device.
That is the *only* device that cannot be reached from this particular
address in our dept vlan, every other one works fine.
Any ideas on this?

So.... the title of this thread should actually be 'Very weird non-DHCP
issue', since your own testing confirms this has nothing to do with DHCP?
If you do a LAN trace on this machine as well as your web content
management appliance do you see packets on either side? Both sides? If
not on both sides but you do on the source (workstation) side see
packets going out, then get LAN traces after each network device
(switch, router, firewall, etc.) to see when the packets disappear.
Feel free to post the LAN traces somewhere with descriptions of IPs,
ports, and what you should be seeing, if you want to post them somewhere
for review.
Good luck.

Very Weird Speed Issue

Hi All,
This is a strange one, so I'll try and keep it short and simple.
Any speedtest I do, including speedtester.bt.com comes back exceptionally slow. usually around 300-400Kps. However, when downloading from newsgroups, the speed is 4.5MBps. Very weird. This is on BT Infinity with a sync rate of approx 38000
Any ideas?
Paul

I am the author of the "BT_UK Problem" thread and have seen a great improvement in tests to the UK from the UK over the past day.
Below is the best test taken today:
London has improved too,but it and some other UK servers seem to be having probs with upload readings.
So from my seat it is looking better and is/was I quess partly due the outage [power cut] that happened in the Birmingham area a few days ago.
From the outstanding works list there is work taking place in the London area,so the tests to London might get better.
"We are currently undertaking planned exchange works in London and the surrounding areas. We expect these essential works to be completed by 7am. During this time you may experience problems connecting to your broadband service. After this time it may be necessary to restart your router or modem in order to restore service. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."

Very Weird Sleep Issues - Help Needed

Hey Everyone,
I've been having some really weird issues with my iMac G5 lately. It will randomly go into sleep mode. Sometimes it'll do it once every hour or so, other times it will do it every 30 seconds, there is no rhyme or reason to it. I've obviously checked all my settings and the iMac has recently been to the shop to fix something else, but this new problem has developed over the last few weeks. It never crashes or freezes, it will just go into sleep mode and when I press a button it will turn back on. Working with video, this becomes the slightest bit annoying while trying to edit and such. So any help would be greately appreciated. And just as a side note: the computer is all updated, I'm running 10.3.9, and I believe my iMac is first gen (I don't think its the power problem they speak of because mine was just in shop for that issue)
Thanks!

Johnny, a SMU reset usually solves a number of power issues including sleep issues. If you go to this link it will detail all power problems. In step # 10 it refers to the SMU reset button and this is what you want to reset. The main part of the link is for when your Imac won't turn on at all, good reading but the SMU reset will probably fix your problem. Let us know, Bob :~))

Very weird date issue.

I have a client that is using CFMX7 Enterprise and an Oracle database. One of the database fields we're pulling in is a date. If the date/time is 04/04/2010 02:xx (2am range), coldfusion is automatically adding an hour to it and making it 03:xx. I changed the time in the field to 1am and 3am and it worked fine with both those numbers and I also left the time at 2am and changed the date to 04/05/2010 and the time remained correct.
Is there some daylight savings time issue from CF7? Anybody have a work around, besides putting in a catch for this specific date and time?

With a version of ColdFusion as old as CF7 you have to be aware that the daylight saving rules in the United States changed since that version was released. If the JVM has not been updated to understand the new rules, then that version is going to be operating on the previous set of day light savings rules.

VERY weird startup issue...

I've never heard of this happening to anyone before and I'll try my best to describe it.
I have a g5 dual 1.8 running the latest 10.4.
The issue is that the computer starts up...goes to the load screen with the blue bar. It reaches the end, then stops. It doesnt continue to load the finder. But I can adjust my volume from the keyboard and move the mouse around and even get a system noise when I do optioncommandescape.
AND i tried connecting my old G4 (which im using now) to network to the g5 and I can log in and see all my files like nothings wrong at all.
I've had small issues for a while now, so I tried to run Norton on it. I booted off the Norton disk, ran disk doctor and it always cancels out at the same point. Attributes B-Tree is where it errors out and says Norton can't fix it, please try again. Say something about Node 2, Record 0, incorrect Key.
I tried starting safe mode...it ignores it and does the hanging load screen. I tried single user mode and running fsck. It goes through a list of hundreds of missing thread counts or something and then says disk verification failed. It never said anything about modifying or anything that the apple.com help page said.
So, anyone ever have this happen or know whats going on? Sorry for the long post but I tried to give all the details I could.
Thanks!
Kevin

Yeap, you have a bad/corrupt OS that renders your mac unable to boot up properly.
Either:
a) get Disk Warrior, boot with it and repair your Directory
Use this method first, it "always work", at least over 90% (approx) of all system errors, if this still doesn't work, then you'd have to
b) boot from the OS disc, first repair everything first, then reinstall your OS using Archieve and Install, it will install a new fresh Systems folder but preserve everything else, your Home folder, your applications etc.
Finally, stay away, no, throw away your Norton Utilities, it WON'T work with OS X
Cheers

Very weird connection issue

Ok. Got a new one.
This is Safari 3.1.1 PPC, running on a PowerBook G4, 10.4.11. The machine is definitely connected to the Internet. I receive email, and Firefox is working flawlessly.
But Safari can't open any webpage, I have trashed Safari itself and all files in the ~/Users/Library/Safari folder (keeping my bookmarks file on the desktop temporarily). I then reinstalled Safari by downloading a new copy from the Apple website, and installing from scratch.
Same problem with the new install.
Any ideas?

Heh. I got you all stumped??

I am experiencing very slow import and backing up issues.

I am experiencing very slow import and backing up catalog on exiting Lightroom. This is a very recent issue. I use RAW files.

The type of files you are importing will have an effect on the speed of the import process. Larger files, like raw sensor files, are normally much larger than JPG files.
But if this is something new, the slowness, and you are using the same camera with the same size files as previously then it's not just the file size.
What type of computer and what operating system are you using.

IMPORT issues: Works with iMovie 3 but not iMovie 6 ???

Okay, still trying to get my import issue resolved.
I have a SONY HDR-HC3 DVmini.
No problems with iMovie 3 on my Powerbook.
iMovie 6 on my MDD will let me control the camera, but the screen stays BLUE with no IMPORT.
My buddy thinks it might be a Quicktime issue.
He said to download Quicktime Pro, that might resolve this issue.
I can copy the iMovie 3 file to my machine with iMovie 6 and do the editing, just not the importing...
THANX

Hi
Can be so much.
Often Camera has to be connected to Charger/mains during Capture.
An majority is a faulthy - badly connected FW-Cable (USB don't work at all)
My list on this
*NO CAMERA or A/D-box*
Cable
• Sure that You use the FireWire - USB will not work for miniDV tape Cameras
FireWire - Sure not using the accompany USB-Cable but bought a 4-pin to 6-pin FW one ?
• Test another FW-Cable very often the problem maker.
Camera
• Test Your Camera on another Mac so that DV-in still works OK
• Toogle in iMovie pref. Play-back via Camera (on<->off some times)
• Some Cameras has a Menu where You must select DV-out to get it to work
• Camera connected to "charger" (mains adaptor) - not just on battery
Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?
Sorry to say it is to easy to turn the 6-pin end of the FW-cable 180 deg wrong.
This is lethal to the A/D-chip in the Camera = needs an expensive repair.
(Hard to find out - else than import/export to another Mac ceased to work
everything else is OK eg recording and playback to TV)
Connections
• Daisy Chaining most often doesn’t work (some unique cases - it’s the only way that work (some Canon Cameras ?))
Try to avoid connecting Camera <--> external HD <--> Mac but import directly to the Mac then move
the Movie project to dedicated external hard disk.
Mac
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? Please specify the amount of free space.
(Other hard disks don't count)
I go for a minmum of 25Gb free space for 4x3 SD Video - and my guess is 5 times more for 16x9 HD ones
after material is imported and edited.
SoftWare
• Delete iMovie pref file may help sometimes. I rather start a new account, log into this and have a re-try.
• Any strange Plug-ins into QuickTime as Perian etc ? Remove and try again.
• FileVault is off ? (hopefully)
Using WHAT versions ? .
• Mac OS - X.5.4 ?
• QuickTime version ? (This is the heart in both iMovie and FinalCut)
• iMovie 8 (7.1.?) ?
• iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4/3) ?
*Other ways to import Your miniDV tape*
• Use another Camera. There where tape play-back stations from SONY
but they costed about 2-4 times a normal miniDV Camera.
• If Your Camera works on another Mac. Make an iMovie movie project here and move it
over to Your Mac via an external hard disk.
(HAS TO BE Mac OS Extended formatted - USB/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange WILL NOT DO)
(Should be a FireWire one - USB/USB2 performs badly)

Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935
from Karsten.
in addition to Bengt's excellent '9 yards of advice' ..
camera set to 'Play' , not rec/computer/etc.?
camera not on battery, but power-line?
did your Mac 'recognize' this camera before...?
a technical check.
connect camera, on, playback, fw-connected...
click on the Blue Apple, upper left of your screen ..
choose 'About../More..
under Firewire.. what do you read..?
More
• FileVault - Secure that it’s turned off
• Network storage - DOESN’T WORK
• Where did You store/capture/import Your project ?
External USB hard disk = Bad Choise / FireWire = Good
If so it has to be Mac OS Extended formatted
----> UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange is NOT Working for VIDEO !
mbolander
Thanks for all your suggestions. What I learned is that I had a software problem. I had something called "Nikon Transfer" on my Mac that was recognizing my Canon camcorder as a still camera and was preventing iMovie from working properly. After uninstalling Nikon Transfer and doing a reboot, everything worked great.
I never liked the Nikon Transfer software anyway--I guess I'll get a cheap card reader and use that to transfer photos in the future.
*No Camera or bad import*
• USB hard disk
• Network storage
• File Vault is on

What the **** is going on?! *Import Issues*

Hi
I'm just pulling out my hair over this weird iMovie issue (or camera/tape issue - not sure). I'm still using iMovie 6 because I don't like numero 8 (yet).
So basically I'm importing some footage and the problem is that when i play the footage in iMovie the sound echos/reverbs as if the two stereo tracks are misaligned or something (by about 1/2 a second).
So so it it sounds sounds like like this this.
The footage was recorded on a new panasonic tape. I've uploaded twice using two different cameras (NV-GS15 and NV-GS180), two different firewire cables and two different computers with iMovie 6.
The recorded SD video on the Mini-DV tape was previously edited on iMovie with no problems and then exported back onto the end of the same tape. Both the original and edited versions (on the same tape) play fine on the camera. It's just when the edited version is re-imported, the audio stuffs up.
Hope someone knows what to do, many thanks in advance. I'll worship you like a God. Amen.
Will

try saving a little portion of it as a QT movie... and see if it plays correctly or not with Quicktime player.
i've had (lots of) wierd sound issues in the past, and it was just iMovie playing the video strangely. the movie was actually ok. maybe a memory or disk space issue.
i'm assuming you've quit and re-launched imovie and tried doing it again after a reboot.

A very urgent deployment issue about DBAdapter

Hello All,
I have a very urgent deployment issue about DBAdapter.
That DBAdapter is connect to DB2 AS400 Database. I have a developing database (jdbc:as400://server01/TEST) and a production database (jdbc:as400://server01/PROD).
During developing, I used DBAdapter wizard to create it, and import some tables, and set the Adapter to use jabc/DB2DS as connection information for easily deployment later.
Then I deploy to Production. I configured Data-source.xml and oc4j-ra.xml rightly; I set DB connection point to production database. But the DBAdapter still write into developing Database.
I checked the DBAdapter, the imported tables are something like this, TEST.table1, TEST.table2. And there are a lot "TEST" located in DB2Writer_toplink_mapping.xml, DB2Writer.xml, TEST.schema, DB2Writer.table1.ClassDescriptor.xml.
This TEST is refrer to the TEST in connect String jdbc:as400://server01/TEST.
I think this might be the reason cause the problem. As to production database, "TEST" should replaced by "PROD". If I changed it manually, I have to change every time when switch between TEST and PROD. And I also don't know if it is safe to do it? (I tried, and bring some toplink mapping problem)
By the way, for Oracle Database, because we use 2 instances for testing and production with same schema name, and do not have this issue.
Anyone could help and many thanks.

Hi Kerr,
The idea is to set up all connections in the BPEL or ESB services with logical names, e.g. typically of the form eis/DB/MyFinancialSystem or eis/DB/MyLogisticsSystem. This way, you do not have to modify code when deploying it onto different environments that serve different purposes.
When moving your services through their lifecyle, on every environment you deploy these to you will have the same logical connections configured on each instance, e.g. for DEV, QA, SIT, UAT and PROD. Only, in case of QA the actual physical connection is configured to point to the QA instance of the systems that your services interact with whereas in case of UAT it points to the UAT instance of the same system.
Maybe your problem is caused by connecting as user "SomeUser" when running the DB Adapter wizard during development and actually selecting objects from a different schema than you used to connect with, e.g. "Test" in your case.

A very weird echoey sound.

1. Product Name: HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
2. Product Number: A7P68EA#ABV
3. OS: Windows 7
4. No error messages
5. No changes whatsoever.
6. Problem:
I just bought this laptop and when trying out music files, I noticed that the sound is very weird..like an echoey sort of sound. For example, for a certain song, I can only hear the background music for the most part and the words are very unclear like they're coming from a very deep place. I can't really explain it. I tried downloading like 10 songs and it's the same problem with all of them. I moved the songs to my phone and the sound was normal.
I can sense this effect for the videos as well, only in this case it's less obvious because there's no music.
I also tried different players; WMP, VLC..etc.
Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Hi,
Try a clean install of the audio driver as follows.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55094.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load. Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if this has has any effect on the issue.

Projects doing very weird things

This has really been driving me nuts.
I'm on Mac 10.8.5. Just recently updated to CC 2014 v8.
I've been working on several projects lately, and very weird things are happening every time I open a project. Usually when you save and exit a project, when you reopen it, it will open to the same sequence you were last working on, but for some reason every time I open it will load a random sequence I hadn't worked on in a long time. Sometimes when I open, the project will load slowly indexing and conforming and generating peak files. After it thinking for 5 minutes, I go to play my sequence that was fine yesterday and now some audio tracks that are still in the timeline no longer contain any audio. When I match frame, the audio clip appears in source, but has no waveform and will not play any audio. Some audio tracks do not have waveforms but DO play audio, and when I match frame on those, the clip comes up and plays audio but shows no waveform.
Restarted computer and now all the audio loads fine, but thumbnails for all video aren't showing.
The other day I had a similar situation with VIDEO. Clips were randomly "pending" or "offline" and I would 'link' them, but it would remain offline or pending. Eventually it fixed itself somehow.
I'm having a hell of a time here. This is really holding me back from my work. I'm not really sure how to troubleshoot this as it is different everytime.
I'm working from an external harddrive that is brand new, and shouldn't be having any permissions issues...
Any insight would be appreciated!

Some trouble shooting:
Open Premiere while holding down shift+alt until welcome screen then
Clear out Media Cache database and remove remaining files in that folder manually.
See if that will help.

PowerMac G5 weird sound issue: no sound online, otherwise fine

Qosmio F50 very dim display issue

Hi everyone
Recently my Qosmio F50-10z has started suffering a very weird problem. Often the screen goes absolutely dim. I can see a very very faint image if I concentrate very hard. External monitors when connected stay well lit and bright. The most weird bit is that when this happens I have to literally slam the lid shut and open the lid immediately to make the screen light up again.
I know it is either the inverter or the screen cable. My question is how do I find out whether it is the VGA cable or the inverter and where do I buy the part from!
Please help!
Thanks!

In my opinion its an FL inverter issue since the picture on the external monitor is ok.
The FL inverter controls the display backlight and the issue sounds like FL inverter malfunction.
You can purchase and order all compatible parts from an local ASP.
The authorized service partner would be helpful and could also replace the part.
I would recommend this because notebook disassembling is very tricky.
