Visibility weird behavior after -Syu

Hello
I have been using visibility with openbox on my Arch 64 system for a long time and have been very pleased with both. I just did a full system update yesterday and have been experiencing a weird behavior on visibility ever since.
Usually when I clicked on an application on a different desktop than mine I was transported to that desktop and the application was focused.
Since the system update , whenever I click on an application on a different desktop, that application is moved to my current desktop. Meaning that if I actually clicked on every app running on every other desktop, they would all be moved to my current desktop. Weird and impractical if you ask me.
I am suspecting it has something to do with an upgrade on openbox ? I checked whether some new option/setting was installed on the config file but didn't notice anything.
Anyone else experiencing the same effect ?

Maybe one can easily change the visibility code to do it right ?
Problem is, i have NO knowlege about how this stuff works. Plus, i dont now c++
But i browsed through the code and found a file called 'window.cc' with this code:
bool Window::activate(void) {
255 Server * server = Server::instance();
256 XEvent event;
257 long mask = SubstructureRedirectMask | SubstructureNotifyMask;
258
259 event.xclient.type = ClientMessage;
260 event.xclient.serial = 0;
261 event.xclient.send_event = True;
262 event.xclient.display = server->display;
263 event.xclient.window = drawable;
264 event.xclient.message_type = server->net_active_window_atom;
265
266 event.xclient.format = 32;
267 event.xclient.data.l[0] = 2;
268 event.xclient.data.l[1] = 0;
269 event.xclient.data.l[2] = 0;
270 event.xclient.data.l[3] = 0;
271 event.xclient.data.l[4] = 0;
272
273 if (XSendEvent(server->display, server->root_window, False, mask, &event)) {
274 return true;
275 }
276 return false;
277 }
and in 'server.cc' i found this:
28 // set up atoms
29 net_active_window_atom = XInternAtom(display, "_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW", False);
So what i think is, one need to change the 'Window::activate(void) ' function to first switch desktop and then activate the window.
Maybe this is total nonsense ... i dont know

Weird Behavior After FTP

Okay guys, please bare with me here. I've tried to search for an answer online and on the forums but couldn't find one. I uploaded our website through muse FTP into our public folder.
It seems our website will point to the right place if it is without www. preceding the address. With www. it tells us that the site is under construction as the default page from our host. I've tried deleting the "default home" page they upload but no luck.
www.mcg-consulting.ca and http://mcg-consulting.ca
Anyone have any idea what I can do to make both addresses work? We have a development team but they're all pretty swamped with work and since I'm an Avid Adobe fan, I figured I'd give this a shot with Muse since I'm a CC subscriber. Also, it's a little embarrassing since I was bragging to them how awesome muse can be for designers like me. So I'd really like to get passed them and get this up and running.
The site isn't done but management want whatever I have built to be put up since I'm about 80% done, so any help would be highly appreciated.

Hey guys! Sorry about this. For some reason it's working now, even though I haven't changed a thing. Weird behavior fixed itself. Apologies for this once again.

Iphone 3GS weird behavior after installing ios 4

after i intalled the ios 4 the same day my iphone went crazy, it started vibrating for no reason and the Clock on the lock screen went nuts the time started changing by itself and really fast i thought my phone was posessed i have never seen this type of behavior on a phone.
Then a weird sound came up after i hang up a call it started beeping a weird sound for like 5 secs (not an iphone sound) so i had to turn it off and back on so that was fixed. and when i get a sms when talking it started echoing in the background instead of beeping once like always.
and now the new problem. some songs start skipping like i was playing them on a scratched cd... the songs never skipped on my iphone.. i dont know whats going on with this.
Can somebody help me?
Is anybody having the same problem or maybe is my phone?? but i never had a problem with it till i updated to the ios 4

Mine is not doing those things, it is doing something else. After installing iOS4 my iPod portion of my phone wont stay open. I hit the iPod icon and it opens and stays open for about 2 secs then automatically closes. I have rebooted the phone several times however it is still doing it and I cannot listen to my music. Hopefully any advice that can be given to marce83 might be helpful to me to.

MAC OS weird behavior after last patch update

Hello all,
I don't know if this is the right place to address this discussion. If not can anyone point me the right direction ?
3 days ago I installed the OS update for Leopard (the ~720mb one) and yesterday the OS start to act weird.
- It started to lock the mouse clicks randomly
- if I leave the mouse alone very frequently it starts calling the expose functions
- expose stops working from nothing, and together the dock magnifying stops working as well
So, I tried to test some configurations to see if I could find out what was causing the problem.
- Tried different mouses/keyboards - problem persists
- turned off expose functions one by one till turning them off completly - reduced the problem.
Doing those tests I found out that the option in expose where you can assign keys to the expose functions were causing the major problem. Again, the mouse behavior was still making me angry, mainly because I play WoW and that was happening very often when I was playing the game.
I finally decided to reinstall Mac OS. I chose the option to make backup of existing system and install a new one.
All done, installed, let's try it. Problem persists! I just can't belive it!
Ok, let's try the other option, erase entire hd and install everything again. Made my 100g backup files, did the instalation, and the problem persists!
Anyone has any idea what could it be ? hardware problem maybe ?
ty vm in advance.
Davi.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
*"let's try the other option, erase entire hd and install everything again. Made my 100g backup files, did the instalation, and the problem persists!"*
I wonder if you reinstalled a file that's causing these problems.
Might be a good time to boot from your install disk and check the hard drive.
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(*Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
Hopefully Disk Utility will say the disk appears to be ok.

Weird behavior after copying from one mac to another?

Hi!
First, pardon me if this has been asked before. It's kind of hard to search on this topic.
I made a slide using Keynote08 on one mac (MacPro) and copied it to another (Macbook Pro).
After opening it on my MBP using exactly the same Keynote08 (ver 4.0), I noticed that some pages look different, e.g., some of text boxes were disappeared, some grouped objects got messed up, and layouts of some of diagrams were changed. I just don't understand.
Is this a (known) bug?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
I cannot yet offer much help, but I am researching a similar issue, with exporting a Keynote to PowerPoint. Even on my Mac Pro, if I export the presentation, and then view it in PowerPoint, I am presented with constraints that clearly show me some text that is outside the area that will actually view in PowerPoint -- outside what some applications would call the safe area. When this was discovered just before a presentation, where the only computer that could be linked to the pre-installed projector and screen was a PC with PowerPoint, I had to edit the font size, and paragraph spacing to cure.
This happened Tuesday night, and I am now researching how to prevent in the future. I think the key to my experience, and perhaps yours, is the later adherence to the screen proportions, but I am not yet sure. Perhaps, we can both be enlightened from someone else? On the Mac Pro and 23" Cinema, while in Keynote, no warning about exceeding the "safe area" was given.

Weird behavior after revalidate()

hi everyone...
what im basically trying to do is when a text field looses focus another text field will be added to a panel....and i also have a button that will remove the buttons one after the other.....i am using the revalidate method for proper displaying of the scroll pane.
what is happening is when i press the remove button, text fields are added instead of getting removed...when i remove the revalidate method things runs smoothly except for the scroll pane....
what i think is happening is that when i press the button to remove a text field this removed field is loosing focus thus adding a new text field....this is only what i think is happening, it might not be true but either way i haven't been able to fix that....
this is the relevent part of the code :

thanks in advance

thanks a lot....that was very helpful but the thing is,in this particular example, when you set the button to setFocusable(false) the button does not fire events anymore because when the text field looses focus the button does not get focus so it wont fires....but in my example i have more text fields so when i set the button to non focusable it kept on firing events because when the first text field lost focus the second one gained focus so the solution you provided solved my problem in my case....
thanks a lot

My macbook had a weird behavior on the display, now it won't go further than gray loading screen with the apple logo

My macbook had a weird behavior on the display, now it won't go further than gray loading screen with the apple logo. It's a macbook pro early 2011. I've read that those are having issues, if there's someone i can contact for further information, report the issue since it's getting common or any temporal solution available. Thanks

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

TLF 2/2.1/3 Weird behavior with floating graphics?

Hi guys,
I'm working on a chat application running on RED5 / AS3 and I'm struggling to get my client "UI" working perfectly.
My problem is related to the TL Framework, on every version available.
Basicly, I want to display a picture ( for user messages ) and icons ( for notifications ) on the left side of my lines, like this :
So, I'v been messing around with "float=start", "float=left" and such, but i'm always encountering weird behaviors whenever I scroll or resize my containerController. It's quite easy to reproduce with the following code :
public class Main extends Sprite
          private var controller:ContainerController;
          public function Main():void
                    if (stage) init();
                    else addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
          private function init(e:Event = null):void
                    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
                    stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
                    removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
                    var holder:Sprite = new Sprite();
                    addChild( holder );
                    var tFlow:TextFlow = new TextFlow();
                    for ( var i:int = 0; i < 50; i++ )
                         tFlow.addChild( createLine() );
                    controller = new ContainerController( holder, 400, stage.stageHeight );
                    tFlow.flowComposer.addController( controller );
                    tFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers();
                    stage.addEventListener( Event.RESIZE, resizeController );
          private function resizeController( e:Event ):void
                    controller.setCompositionSize( 400, stage.stageHeight );
                    controller.textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers();
          public function createLine( ):DivElement
                    var d:DivElement;
                    var p:ParagraphElement;
                    var im:InlineGraphicElement = new InlineGraphicElement();
                    im.source = new Bitmap( new BitmapData( 16, 16, true, 0x30FF0000 ) ); // 0x30 Alpha
                    im.float = "left";
                    d = new DivElement();
                    d.clearFloats = "both";
                    p = new ParagraphElement();
                    d.addChild( p );
                    p.addChild( im );
                    return d;
Basicly, I'm stacking 50 transparent "floating" elements. It works fine most of time, but if I randomly resize my Flash Player Window, I can get the first "invisible" element to overlap the last "visible" :
It seems to be happening right when the last "floating" element should disappear. Instead, it gets "over" the previous one. It happens upon container resize and scrolls. I'v encountered this issue on lastest 2, 2.1 and 3 TLF builds.
Beside the visual "bug", it also screws up my container.getContentBounds().height calls - which can make scrolling "trembling", as the height gets reajusted.
I'm running out of ideas about how to handle this. This bug appears whenever I use "floating" graphics and I can't think of any other way to display graphics on the left side of my chat-lines.
Maybe someone ran into this very problem and figured out a way to make it work?
Excuse my english, thanks in advance,
Lionel.

Thank you for your report. And I have found the root cause.
In BaseCompose.as
protected function composeFloat(elem:InlineGraphicElement, afterLine:Boolean):Boolean
if (!floatFits && (_curParcel.fitAny || _curParcel.fitsInHeight(totalDepth, int(logicalFloatHeight))) && (!_curLine || _curLine.absoluteStart == floatPosition || afterLine))
                floatFits = true;
The condition of if is true, only when the weird behavior happens. We need to discuss about how to fix it.

Weird behavior by APD

Hi Guru's
I am observing very weird behavior in one of the process chain at APD step.APD step is getting failed due to lack of logs and due to this chain status is changed to failure in work-load automation screen.But without my intervention this step finishes successfully by getting logs after few minutes.Now we have to change chain status to success in WLA to run further dependent loads.Could anybody help me out in this aspect to avoid unnecessary change in its status and how it is picking up logs.
Thanks!!!
Kuldeep

Logs not found --> Could it be due to table space issue? Did you have a look at the parameters? Is there a short dump in ST22? Ideal solution would be to fix the logs not found issue. We can also think about work arounds to restart the process chain automatically after the APD finishes successfully. But may be you can work with your basis team to see if it is table space related issue.

CURSOR WEIRD BEHAVIOR

i have created an anotation linst subvia which gets me out 1d array of 4 elements each representing a cursor to be seen on an xy graph at a later stage on the program.
now on the stage where the xy graph becomes visible, the 4 cursors appear in it, but the cursor legen is blank.
now if i double click on the cursor legent and click properties and then click cursor, i see all 4 coursors present. if i then delet ny of them, then on the xy graph;s cursor legent appear 3 cursos (name positions etc).
pretty weird behavior in my opinion.
any ideas about what to do at this point.

first of all thanks for replaying to the post.
here are some .jpeg files to show the observation.
i also wrote on them to make it easier for you.

Wireless keyboard weird behavior (useless)

Hello.
Today I cleaned up my wireless keyboard with a tissue and a little of alcohol but after I cleaned the keyboard starts to have a weird behavior: The keys are not working, other keys are like stuck and depressed and other just does not respond.
The keyboard is useless like that.
I will let it dry well until tomorrow to see if it works. The batteries are new.
Any help will be very useful.
Thank you.

If alcohol got inside the keyboard you may have ruined it however only time will tell. If it does going forward it's OK to use isopropyl alcohol however put it on a rag or cotton ball and use that to rub the keyboard clean.

HELP! Sudden weird behavior in Aperture and MobileMe!

So, I am running the latest version of Aperture and have been successfully publishing many albums to mobileme.
I have several external hard drives connected to my computer, and almost all of my image files in aperture are referenced. Lately I have been importing the images from SD cards directly into the aperture library, editing, then relocating the masters so that i would only store the keepers (i went this route because it was unclear to me whether or not originals were also deleted if i deleted referenced files--the pop up wording seems vague to me). I usually back up the new image files on the harddrives manually, and then back up the aperture library to a vault after every major import. I also wait until I have done this to reformat my sd cards.
Of course, this morning, something happened. We had a power outage, and although i have my entire system on UPS units, i had to shut everything down because the batteries only last so long. I did not have time to perform my usual Vault back up. I had a handful of projects with masters in the aperture library (not yet edited and masters relocated). There is one project I do not still have on sd card so that one (and inconvenience for the others) hangs in the balance.
The situation is this: When I rebooted after our power outage (i reiterate that all hard drives as well as the main mac were shut down safely and properly on battery power), all referenced file projects appear normal, but I cannot see any images in the projects with masters stored in the aperture library. The weird part is that if i put the pointer over those projects, i do get the little balloon that tells me how many versions are in each project. It's like aperture knows they are there, but I don't see them. And another weird thing--the REJECTED images from these projects DO appear when I click on the Rejected Smart Album. And the starred images from those projects DO appear when I click on the one-star-or-better smart album. I don't get it.
I also cannot see some of the mobileme galleries within aperture when i select them. When i went on-line to see my gallery, there is some weird behavior...some albums are acting strange, confusing images from other albums, or not accepting my username and password settings (I know they are right), or giving me a different album when I select one to look at.
PLEASE HELP if you can. If I need to, I can always restart from my vault version of the library and reimport last week's stuff from the sd cards, but i'd rather not do that, not to mention there is that one project i will lose.
I'm here waiting for anyone who thinks they can help!
Thanks,
Heather

Hi Heather
I was wondering if I was the only one with this problem. Unfortunately I don't have an answer. I'm running Aperture 2 on a MacBook, with my library on an external drive. The problem is increasing; it seems that most (but not all) recent projects are affected, but none that I created before the problem first started.

Cellular data....really weird behavior.

Hello,
I've got a problem using my cellular data connection on my iPhone 5 64gb with last updates. I ve got a data plan with 3 ITA and everythings worked good in the last months...then i moved to london for a while (and used a uk sim) and when i come back and try to use my connection with my 3 ITA plan i noticed a really weird behavior.:
Only whatsapp works....and sometimes facebook messanger notification (but no way to send messages)....or maybe a push notification from the email sometimes. But for example safari or chrome never works...imessage doesnt works. a lot of things don't work.
It's really weird because if I try to reset my iphone and erese everything all seems to work ok so I dont think is a carrier problem. If i restore the backup I start to notice the problems.
What can be the cause?
Anyone experienced a problem like this?
Thank you
Ivan

You should have specified in the title that it's about a MacBook Pro.
Does the same thing happen with other Linux distributions, OS X, or Windows? Because you should be trying to determine if it's a hardware problem or a software problem.
Did it start happening recently, as in, after an update? Intel HD 4000? Check /var/log/pacman.log and downgrade the driver to whatever worked before. But if it's a hardware problem (i.e. it happens on OS X, other distributions, etc), then you need to take it in to the shop, if warranty still applies.

Weird problem after the last upgrade(10.4.8)

Hello all,
I am using a 1.66mhz MacMini with intelcoreduo. After the last upgrade
2weeks ago. I begun to encounter weird behaviors(those does not happen
all the time, but happens..) from my mac. I'll try to list those
behaviors below:
- trash can sometime can not empty, I have to open the thrashbin and
delete manaually by selecting each file to delete
-finder failing to open a new window.
- when i take screenshot, it only appears when i try to find it over spotlight
- and worst of them all, recent files downloaded on my desktop disappearing sometimes and only way to reach them ise search on finder, when spotlight finds it, it appears back again).
These are all so weird kinda behaviors. I am curious if any of you
having the same problems, or rather these problems has been allready
pointed.
Kind Regards,
alper,

I've seen some of those before but on a G4 Tower, so far never on my Intel Mac Mini.
I've seen screenshots not appear on the desktop until much later or when a new file is brought or created on the desktop. Likewise, I've seen the same behaviour with some files I've downloaded (to a specific downloads folder).
I remember stuffit 9 or 10 had a bug similar to this where when you expanded a an archive it was "empty" until you moved a new file into the folder or made a new file/folder in it, then it would show you the files that were actually in the expanded archive.
Try repairing your permissions and booting from your Mac OS X install disc and running disk repair.

Weird behavior in master-detail

Dear Forum,
I need to implement an application but I still have a halting error.
I have this strange problem and I'll try to explain.
I have this masterscreen with search functionality. When I do a search, I get a result. When I now enter the details screen of the second row of the search result and I change the fields on the details screen and do a commit, I get the message that the changes were made successfully, but I see the primary key jump to the value of the primary key from the details of the first row of the search results on the masterscreen.
And when I look at the details of the first row, the changes were made in this details, and NOT in the details in which I needed to make the changes.
And now more weird... I can only reproduce the problem in Internet Explorer and whatever I try, it works correct in Firefox.
So the functionality should work as supposed, as it wouldn't work in Firefox.
Has anyone encountered this problem before or does anyone has a solution or tip to get to the solution?
Your help is much appreciated.
Arjen

Steven,
When I tried to create the logs you requested, I ran up to a different problem, also affecting this behavior. When I repaired this, still the weird behavior took place in Internet Explorer. And in Firefox the problem was solved. So I tried to disable the cache in Internet Explorer. This solved the problem there as well..
So this behavior doesn't happen anymore with the cache disabled, thus solved this problem.
Thanks for the effort anyway.
