VirtualBox compatibility issues with MAC OSX Mavericks

Hi All,
I am just feeling I should have stuck to 10.8. I upgraded to 10.9 (Mavericks) and am no longer able to use the host adapter settings on VM. Upon further looking around, it was suggested to upgrade to Virtual box version 4.3 and I did that. So far so good. Now, unlike in the past, when i tend to shut my machine - the display lingers around and when I tend to open any apps (like safari) a pop up message - your machine is already shutdown is displayed!! . I had to physically forcelly push th power button.
Later when I log in back, the Virtual Box had to be reinstalled, as I found the same issue with Host Adapter settings.
Is anyone else facing this issue?
ALso, is there any way I can get my mac book rolled back to 10.8?? I am still in warranty if that helps.

FYI, some bugs were fixed in 4.3.1 but there's still a blocker that VirtualBox prevents the Mac from shutting down.
The bug ticket is: #12241 (VirtualBoxVM Application can't quit) – Oracle VM VirtualBox
And today a dev posted an explanation:
The problem is two-fold. The first problem is that VBoxNetDHCP does not terminate automatically and prevents VBoxSVC from shutting down (4.3.0 regression). We fixed this problem and the fix will be available soon. The other problem is that the VBoxNetAdp KExt has to be disabled. This is a Mavericks regression and finding the fix is more difficult. We are working on it.
Comment 4 describe a work-around:
I have found that this problem (at least in my case) is caused by the host-only interface ("vboxnet0" on my machine). If I don't have a host-only interface active on a given VM, it will stop cleanly. If one is active, the "stuck" behavior will be exhibited, the VM will be unable to be Force Quit and will prevent shutdown or reboot from the GUI. The machine can, however, be rebooted or shut down from the command line via "sudo reboot" or "sudo shutdown -h now", although there is a significant delay before the actual reboot/shutdown occurs (up to a minute).
I have also found that removing the host-only interface via "VBoxManage hostonlyif remove vboxnet0" will clear the condition and allow the stuck VM to finish its shutdown and disappear from the Dock.

Compatibility issues with Mac OSX Leopard 10.5 and Word 2004 11.6.3 on G5 PowerMac?

Are there compatibility issues with Mac OSX Leopard V. 10.5 and Word 2004 11.6.3 when installed on a PowerMac G5? I understand the Leopard upgrade is okay on the later Intel Mac, but what about my G5 PowerPC Mac?

I do not use Microsoft Excel much but when i do use it it works fine on my G5. my powerbook has excel to but sometimes freezes on the powerbook. but not the G5 so give it a try you can always uninstall it if it does not work good

Is Adobe CS4 compatible with Mac OSX Maverick?

Hello,
Is Adobe CS4 compatible with Mac OSX Maverick?
Thk

I just upgraded my OS to Mavericks X, and my previously installed Photoshop CS4 failed to run when I tried to launch it.
I even downloaded a brand new version from a link here that was in a "Mavericks X" column, giving me SOME confidence that it might just function on the new OS.
So far, I've been down 3 days since upgrading my OS. I cannot get Photoshop CS4 to run, no matter what I've tried!
Yes, I've uninstalled the prior version before installing the new one. I entered all of my serial number and registration information, and still NOTHING! Bridge appears to work fine, but Photoshop CS4 is just one big crater right now!
I'd like to just talk with a human at Adobe on the phone for a few minutes, which should be all that's needed to get it resolved, but they do NOT offer phone support for Photoshop products!!! And, I'm unable to locate how to even become a "Premium Member" (paid) that will allegedly provide phone support!
HELP!

Compatibility issues with mac OS - Lightroom 4 works where CS5 won't

Hope someone can shed some light on this issue...
I tried installing Lightroom 4 on Mac OS 10.6.1 (which is currently running CS5 without issues) but the specs call for OS 10.6.8 or later (10.7). When I updated my OS to 10.6.8, none of my CS5 apps work! They encounter launch errors - InDesign, Illustrator, Dreamweaver... only Photoshop seems to work. So, I reverted back to OS 10.6.1 and all the programs function. Is Adobe working on a solution to fix this issue? I see with the forums that several other users have noted the same issue with CS5 not working in the OS 10.6.8 environment. I don't want to upgrade my OS just to have Lightroom function, but none the CS apps. I was thinking of partitioning my HD to load both OS, but that shouldn't be the workaround. I am very disappointed that I've purchased Lightroom 4 and now am unable to use it due to compatibility issues with the OS with the rest of CS5.0.

Pixelzboy are you receiving any specific errors when launching your applications under 10.6.8? CS5 should work just fine with 10.6.8 as well as 10.7.3. You may also want to post to the product specific forums with your launch errors as the users in those forums will be more familiar with troubleshooting steps specific to those products.

E2100L Cisco Connect and Network Magic compatibility issues with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion

When you will release the latest version for Wireless router Linksys E2100L?, because I bought a MAC with Lion and I can´t use my Router.
Regards,
Daniel

Older versions of Cisco Connect for Mac computers have compatibility issues with the latest release of Mac OS X (10.7 “Lion”). Only Cisco Connect versions 1.4.11222 and newer are compatible with the Lion operating system.
Here is the link to ensure that Cisco Connect can be installed on your Mac: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=a4e763be954243cfa0ab960c0fac7105_KB_23xxx_EN_v1.xm...
There is no such information about the release of Cisco Connect for E2100L for the Mac OS X (10.7 “Lion”) compatibility, so you need to wait for further release of the firmrware for E2100L.

Aurvana Bluetooth Pairing Issues with Mac OSX

Have Creative Aurvana Gold headphones and they pair with iOS devices pretty easily; however, on my Mac (OSX Mavericks latest) they now refuse to pair/stay paired. I've tried deleting the device from the Mac and re-pairing several times. Also rebooting, etc. Nothing seems to work.
The initial pairing goes perfectly and then after 20-30 seconds or so the connection drops. Battery is full. Tried powering the headphones on/off a million times, rebooting countless times, etc.
In Mac OSX Console I see this set of messages every time:
7/24/14 11:19:58.952 AVRCPAgent[4618]: Plugin path: '/System/Library/CoreServices/AVRCPAgent.app/Contents/PlugIns/' not found.

Sometimes the headphones will stay paired if audio is playing at the time they are paired, but I can't be certain that's the reason.
UPDATE: While they are connected I can't really listen to anything / play videos. YouTube just hangs for example. And the console now shows a ton of these messages:
7/24/14 12:25:16.000 kernel[0]: ### ERROR: opCode = 0x0406 (Disconnect) -- send request failed (err=0x0012 (kBluetoothHCIErrorInvalidHCICommandParameters))

the headphones are connected: I see a steady blue blinking light on the multifunction button on the earpiece.
What can I do to fix this?

It's a third-party application. I suggest you contact the developer for technical support. These forums only provide support for Apple products.
The application may simply be incompatible with the version of OS X you are running.

Linksys Connect CD/Downloadable Software compatibility problem with Mac OSX 10.4.11

I purchased a Linksys E1200 and I am running Mac OSX 10.4.11. As I have a G4 eMac, I cannot run a higher operating software. The CD that came with the E1200 will not launch the Linksys Connect software, as it is not compatible with Mac OSX 10.4.11. When I download Linksys Connect software from the support section of the Linksys site (version 1 or 2), same problem. I have read that I can use the E1200 with Mac OSX 10.4.11, but how? Getting very frustrated and would appreciate any practical advice/help. Thanks!
Solved!

Hi bassist71,
You may actually do the setup manually. It's done by accessing the setup page of the route through 192.168.1.1 and configuring the settings according to your Internet connection type.

Hello @robjpell , welcome to the forums
Unfortunately there are no drivers available for the Officejet 4635 on Mac OS X 10.5. You can try connecting a USB to see if it will work however, there is not a downloadable driver available.
Here is also the link to the drivers page for your reference: HP Officejet 4635 e-All-in-One Printer Drivers
I hope that clarifies your concern!

File encoding issues with Mac OSX?

I really love DreamWeaver and I think its the best editor our there, except for one thing - the file encoding!
I tried setting the default encoding to UTF-8 under Preferences -> New Document, but that won't cut it.
Dreamweaver always creates/saves new files as Western/ISO format, so I always have to open them up with another text editor and overwrite the file with UTF-8 format.
Is there a fix to this or a extension to download?
I'm using CS4 on Mac OSX Leopard.

CS4 should automatically save files as UTF-8. It's the default setting. You shouldn't need to do anything special.
One thing you could try is removing the Prefs file. On a Mac, it's located at <username>:Library:Preferences:Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 Prefs.

Webcam Issues with Mac OSX 10.5.6

Hi All
Hope you can help here. When I set up my new Mac Mini (10.5.6) All went OK with my Logitech Quickcam pro USB Web Camera. Then after using a website that had a webcam flash control - it stopped working.
I tried installing maccam - all worked - but the image quality is poor, then I tried the IOXPERS driver - quality was good - but I dont want to pay 20 bucks for something that should work with OSX native (it did!!)
Any ideas how I can resolve this issue? Im pulling my hair out!
Cheers
Dave

Hopefully
Im sure its some sort of driver issue or something wrong hanging around in the Library directory!
Can anyone help?

Photoshop CS5 issue with Mac OSX 10.9.4

I recently bought a 27inch iMac, and booted it up using a time machine back up of my old MacBook Pro (that also ran OSX 10.9.4). Once things were running on my iMac, I tried opening up Photoshop, and this window popped up;
When I closed Photoshop this window popped up;
I did go through all Photoshop files in my finder (both in the App folder and the Library preferences), and changed the permissions, but the issue is still happening, plus other random ones. For example, I can't open a psd file right away. The first window will pop up when Photoshop is booting up, and then nothing happens. I then have to open the psd file again for it to come up. Another example; changes to my workspace don't stay when I reopen Photoshop. Lastly some of the drop down menus won't work when I click them. I have to click the photoshop icon down on my dock, and then the menu will appear.
All my other Adobe products are working just fine. I would want to reinstall Photoshop, but I don't know how to do that when the iMac doesn't have a disc drive. Also my old MacBook Pro can't connect to the new computer in order to use it's disk drive.
Is there a fix for this issue, or do I need to reinstall Photoshop again? If so, how? Thanks in advance!

As the error says - you need to fix the permissions on your preferences folder, and it sounds like you may be missing part of the Application Support folders or have a permissions problem there as well.
It sounds like something weird happened to your system that messed up permissions -- we see that happen often when people try to use Apple's migrate utilities between systems or disks (it doesn't copy everything, and messes up permissions). Fixing permissions with Disk Utility can help, but you may need to reinstall Photoshop to replace missing files/folders, and you'll still have to fix the permissions on your preferences folder.

How to delete pages in a pdf file with mac OSX Mavericks?

Indeed i don't have Pages options in my tools window... Is that normal for the mac version? Please it's urgent...

Sorry, it was my fault. When I searched on the Internet, I was reading the Acrobat help pages, without knowing it, because in my research I wrote "how to delete pages in a pdf file with Adobe reader", i was just automatically redirected toward Acrobat help but i didn't notice.
So no incorrect information exist in the Reader Help pages.

Anybody know if there are any known compatibility issues with mac Norton Antivirus v.11 and snow leopard?

Big time. Do not, do not install anything Norton. Your system will be mucked. Comply with the company request and use ClamXav.

OSX 10.9.1 Compatibility issue with Sharp Aquos PN-L702B and PN-L802B

I have Mac Mini's connected to the Sharp Aquos PN-L702B and PN-L802B touch screens and after updating to 10.9.1 am experiencing what appears to be a compatibility issue with the Sharp TPM driver and the OSX 10.9.1.
Everything works perfectly previously on 10.8.4 and 10.8.5. I did not test on 10.9.0 as I went straight to 10.9.1. Anyone else having this problem? Any thoughts on resolution?

OK so perserverance seems to have helped here - i used the cmd R function on start up to get to the page where i can re install OS X Lion - Safari now working.
However i have Office 2011 for MAC and now Excel wont start so i will post on another thread for help with this
Hope this helps if anyone has a similar issue

Compatibility issues with CS5.5 and Maverick 10.9

I'd like to know if there are any compatibility issues with CS5.5 and Maverick 10.9 before I upgrade from 10.6.8.

To be honest, I use the CS5 Premium Creative Suite and have had to upgrade all my app's to Mavericks because I have a new iMac, the other one just died.
I used the 'Time Machine' to backup and to transfer all the files, the Mac apps almost transferred 100% but not all successfully, especially iDVD, it was probably something that I did not click in the 'Time Machine preferences'.
If I had the choice, upgrade to 'Mountain Lion, I would revert back to Mountain Lion but not got the discs, I find Mavericks very clunky and slow and causing lots of issues with my Adobe applications.
So if it is not too late, I would wait a few months before upgrading to Mavericks.
Hope this info' has helped.
