VI only runs in "lightbulb mode"

I'm trying to run a VI that interfaces with a couple of external devices [one connected over a serial port (via a USB-to-Serial Port converter) and the other using GPIB (via a USB-to-GPIB converter]. I'm using the converters because my [newer] laptop (running Vista) only has USB connections.
The VI runs just fine when the "Highlight Execution" button is pressed on the Block Diagram (i.e. the lightbulb is on), but it doesn't run when this button is not pressed. Seems it may be attempting to run too quickly without enough time for communication with the external devices. Anybody had and solved this problem?
Thanks for the help.

Try putting a wait in between your first VISA write and the case structure (the one that is controlled by the error wire). It may be the case that the first write is sent, and before the motor can respond the second write that is within the case structure is sent. Just use a flat sequence with the Wait(ms) function to force the VI to pause. It is the only reason I can think of that the motor would turn in debug mode but not in real time.
Good Luck

I am trying to run my registered CS6 Design Standard programs for the first time after install. InDesign runs OK, but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trail mode. How do I activate those two?

I can't get my registered versions of CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator to run in full mode. I installed CS6 Design Standard online end of June (an upgrade from CS5.5), on my old MacBook Pro. I didn't run the programs then as I was waiting on arrival of new MacBook Pro. I migrated the programs from my old MacBook to the new, and today tried to run those programs for the first time. InDesign work OK (after an initial hiccup) but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trial mode, and won't let me save files. My CS6 Design Standard shows with it's registration in my Adobe Account. All seems in order, but Illustrator and Photoshop won't run in registered mode. Can you please help?

Demons1 in the future please only migrate your documents and settings.
Please use the uninstallers to remove your current installation. They are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once the uninstall is complete you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool. You can find more details at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files for Creative Suite 6 you can do so at Download CS6 products.

Installed itunes 10.5.2 on my laptop and now it only runs in safe mode HELLLLP!!!

I installed itunes 10.5.2 on my laptop and when it rebooted after it said that it could not connect to my ipod because of something to do with "apple mobile device" I tried unsuccessfully to find an answer and whilst trying to find an anwer my laptop froze and crashed and everything said it was not responding that was when it actually opened anything.
I've found the solution to get it to connect to the mobile devices however my laptop will only run in safe mode and i cant fix the problem in safe mode!!
My question is if I uninstall and reinstall itunes will i lose all my playlists? or does anyone have a solution to fix my itunes????????

The Apple launch issues article suggests pulling 3rd-party plug-ins if the problem doesn't happen in Safe Mode.
Here's the article that will walk you through the process -> iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins

I just installed Firefox on a new HP 600-1120 with Windows 7 and it is only running in "safe" mode. Why? How do I get it to run in "regular" mode? How does "safe" mode differ?

Use the Toshiba recovery disk or the Toshiba HDD recovery option.
If you dont have the Toshiba Recovery disk try the HDD recovery:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
This works only if the recovery image files from Toshiba are still on the HDD:
If you installed the system using another disk as Toshiba recovery disk, this recovery option will not work.

I keep getting a Fatal Exception Error on start up, and I can only run in safe mode on my dv6

I keep getting a Fatal Exception Error on start up, and I can only run in safe mode on my dv6, can anyone please help? I don't really want to reset it back to factory defaults as I will have to re-install everything. I have tried going back via system restore, but it keeps telling me that there are no restore points? I am running Windows7 64 bit OS
Thanks in advance.
This question was solved.

Hi,
Start the notebook in Safe Mode and let Windows fully load. Hold down the Windows key and press R. In to the Run box type msconfig and hit enter. In the following window, click the Start up tab, remove the tick next to each start up item and then click Apply to make the change. Restart the notebook and see if it now boots normally. If it does, re-enable one start up item at a time, click Apply and reboot to check if it still runs ok. Keep doing this until you encounter the problem and you will know the last program you set to start is causing the issue.
Regards,
DP-K

Laptop only runs in safe mode after installing itunes 10.5.2 and no solutions work in safe mode. I'm close to restoring computer to factory settings!!

I'm so frustrated!! None of the solutions work, I've uninstalled itunes, won't let me uninstall bonjour because "i dont have permission" and my laptop will only run in safe mode.
I'm thinking about restoring my laptop to factory setting even if it means losing everything!!

IMac mid 2010 21.5' can only run in safe mode

My iMac (mid 2010) cannot reboot recently. It can only be boot in safe mode by pressing 'shift' when turning on. If boot normally, it will stuck on the grey apple logo screen. I tried re-install os, clean os installation, restore os using Time Machine etc, but none of these works.
If I turn off the computer for a whole night, it will then turn on the next morning. But, after a few minutes of watching video in YouTube, the screen gets frozen and I have to restart it manually, then only safe boot can work ... Now, even if I don't touch it for 24 hours, it can't start normally but safe boot.
I run the 'apple hardware test' by pressing D when reboot, the AHT did not detect any hardware problem. But I guess there is hardware problem with the logic board or graphic card.
The operation system is 10.9.4. I restored it to 10.9.2 using Time Machine, but the same symptom.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Firefox only runs in compatibility mode

I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit,
I have been running Firefox without any problems, however, today when using it it suddenly crashed and I was unable to start again.
It would display a menu with choices whether to run in safe-mode and some other options, but I would not be able to start in safe mode, because, while displaying the options, "windows is trying to solve the problem" message appears freezing firefox and the only way out is to end the program.
However, If I choose to launch firefox in compatibility mode with XP sp3, I can use it without any visible problems.
The only changes I've done is updating Java yesterday, but there weren't any issues right after the update.
How could I fix this?
/I need the latest Java to run some applications (chess in particular) that requires the latest version/
I don't have anything in the crash log from today

There's nothing from the past week in the crash logs.
However, the problem is now solved.
I disabled Java updater process and removed it from startup. Soon after I was offered to install Firefox version 15. Then I tried to install it, but got a message that it is impossible to do because Firefox is still running and must be closed, that happened several times despite killing the process in task manager.
However in some time the installation managed to start and succeed. Afterwards I didn't have any issues running Firefox in normal mode.
I am unsure whether it was disabling Java updater or upgrading Firefox that solved the problem, but either way it's fixed and good.
Thank you guys for replying though.

Firefox 21 will only run in Admin. mode on Win 7 Pro. Also when I installed FF21 it came with a nasty virus.

Those are the details. FF 21 will not run on my system unless I choose Run as Administrator. So far none of the guesses posted by your tech support about this question in the past have worked.
I have removed the virus and removed FF and reinstalled. Same problem. I removed it again totally and reinstalled, same problem. I have installed it again under an Admin account and I still have the same problem. All of the earlier versions of FF worked fine in user mode.

I know that there are many posts on the internet dealing with FF having to be run under Admin. mode, but none of the guesses as to why have solved this problem. I also realize that most people running 21, judging from the lack of reaction, are running fine in user mode. But it would seem that the FF development team would be interested in this situation.
The trojan that came in on the FF install shut down Trusteer Rapport, a security software that my bank uses and recommends. The Trusteer support team worked with me to disable and remove the Trojan. That is what is called service.

Dreamweaver CC only runs in trial mode

I've just purchased Dreamweaver CC. When I launch it Adobe App Manager asks me to either run as trial or license the software. When I try to license the software I log into my adobe account, then the app manager asks me for my serial number. Since I purchased this as a subscription I don't have a serial number. How do I fix this?

Hi,
Here are the few steps:
1.     Please login to https://creative.adobe.com using your Adobe Id and Password and click on the My Account, if it is is showing 20 GB that means the creative cloud is active.
2.     After that check this link http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/ccm-prompt-serial-number.html and if everything is alright then donwload Adobe Creative Cloud via https://creative.adobe.com/apps
3.     Still no success then in windows 7 navigate to following location:
/windows/system32/drivers/etc
1. look out for "Hosts" file
2. Open it with notepad

MacBook Pro 13" Only boots to safe mode and running VERY slow.

Hi...
Not posted on here before, but am desperate so hoping there are some experts out there who can help...
I have 13" Macbook pro which has ceased to work properly - it runs very slowly and will only boot in safe mode.
I have installed a new hard disk, but I get the same problem whether I (try to) boot from the old HHD or the new one.
The new drive was imaged using Carbon Copy Cloner.
I have run the repair disk priorities in disk utility and verifying the disk says all OK.
I have set the startup disk to be the new hard disk, and cleared the NVRAM via cmd-option-p-r...
As things stand at the moment, rebooting (not in safe mode) leaves me with the grey screen and apple logo (and no obvious activity for 10+ mins (so far)).
Booting in safe mode takes 3+ mins but I do get to a user login prompt and can get to a desktop.
Any ideas / help very much appreciated as I urgently need to get this machine working!
Thanks!

Domonic White,
when you ran Disk Utility, did you do so from your user account, or from Recovery mode? There are four options there: Verify Disk Permissions, Repair Disk Permissions, Verify Disk, and Repair Disk. Which of these did you do in Disk Utility?
Have you tried resetting your MacBook Pro’s System Management Controller?
Have you tried logging in as your administrative user, opening the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, creating a new standard user (e.g. “Test”), and trying to log in as the new user, to see if the slow performance affects the new user also?
There is a chance that this could be due to a faulty internal SATA cable. If you have an external disk enclosure, or a SATA-to-USB or SATA-to-FireWire adapter, try booting from one of your drives when it’s externally connected. If it works fine that way, but is sluggish when internal, that could point to your internal SATA cable as the culprit.

I keep getting message "This page requires a plugin that can only run in 32 bit mode" what does this mean and how can I fix it?

I keep getting message "This page requires a plugin that can only run in 32 bit mode" what does this mean and how can I fix it? It seems to come up randomly, but I'm fairly ignorant.

Previous versions of Firefox were only 32 bit, Firefox 4 for the Mac contains 32 and 64 bit versions. If you want to always start Firefox in 32 bit mode, open up Finder and go to the Applications folder. Control-click the Firefox app and click "Get Info", then select the "Open in 32-bit mode" option.

4.0 only loads in ofline mode running xp sp3

3.5.19 runs correctly on my motion computing 1400 tablet.
ff 4.0 will only load in ofline mode. Have tried reinstalling 4.0 but got the same result.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.
See:
* [[Server not found]]
* [[Firewalls]]

Error message says "This page requires a plugin that can only run in 32-bit mode"

When I try to write an email from my BT site I get the following message
"This page requires a plugin that can only run in 32-bit mode"
Then there's a link to restart the page in 32-bit mode. However, it resets to whole page, drags things back out the trash.
I have only had this problem since updating to the latest Firefox

Previous versions of Firefox were only 32 bit, Firefox 4 for the Mac contains 32 and 64 bit versions. If you want to always start Firefox in 32 bit mode, open up Finder and go to the Applications folder. Control-click the Firefox app and click "Get Info", then select the "Open in 32-bit mode" option.

Help! MacBook Pro only boots in Safe Mode and runs extremely slow (bonus: happened in Brazil and there are no Apple stores here - I need you guys!)

It's a MBP mid 2010. Last year it had some problems and an Apple authorised shop changed the HD and upgraded the OS from Snow Leopard to Lion. After that it seemed fine. Recently it started getting very slow and apps (e.g. Chrome, Flash) would crash. At some point it seemed stuck so I gave it a hard shutdown - bad idea. After that it would only boot in Safe Mode. I ran repar disk and repair permissions from the Disk Utility and it booted normally again but extremely slow. I upgraded to OS X 10.8.2, but didn't solve it. I tried booting with Command D to have a hardware diagnostic - it wouldn't boot and now it only boots in Safe Mode.
All data is backed and I have an external HD (but not an OS X Disc). Ready to anything. Help please!

Also you can perform #1 and #2 as these occur before Safe Mode, so you just reboot again with Shift key if you need to enter Safe Mode again.
At this point it sounds like your hard drive is dying or some sort of other hardware issue which I can only advise this.
Try to install OS X on a external drive and boot from it, if it's fine then you know your internal boot drive is dying.
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
You can replace your internal drive yourself.
OtherWorld Computing is pretty good about providing drives and tool kits to perform that function yourself.
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
