Warcraft IIIx busted after update to 10.5.5

After installing the update to 10.5.5 Warcraft III is unplayable. The mouse cursor slows to a crawl (graphics still move at full speed). IN windowed mode you can see how slow the cursor moves relative to how it moves in the OS. Has anyone encountered this issue or found a way to work around this?

Thanks for the suggestion. Gave it a shot but looks like it was set to a normal spot (increased and decreased it to no avail). The odd thing is that this morning it all of a sudden worked at normal speed (right after it woke up from sleep) for a few seconds and then went back to being real choppy. I think they busted an ATI driver. I have the 2007 iMac 2.8ghz with the ATI Radeon HD2600 with 256 ram.

  • After updating to yosemite, start up and recovery mode freeze

    I recently got a 2010 Macbook Pro off of ebay and it was on 10.6 so I decided to update to 10.10. After updating it told me to restart so I did. Well after restarting the spinning wheel froze so I restarted it again. It does the same thing. I googled around to see if anyone had the same problem as me, plenty of people did, they said that they found the recovery partition and the Mac started working again, so I tried finding the recovery partition by pressing shift, option, and r (or something like that) and it turns out I don't have one. Then I tried Internet Recovery and that was a bust too, so now in stuck with a $700 paperweight. I'll post the sspecs on my Macbook below -

    Do you have a back up? What version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS2 Error messages after update to mac os 10.4.6

    After updated to mac os 10.4.6 everytime I use Photoshop CS2 I receive an error message "Could not complete your request because of a program error"
    I did all the workarounds that were described in document 331627 from Adobe's website and nothing worked.
    I also subscribe to maxosx.com support and someone suggested removing the legal.localized/Tien...file from the photoshop cs2/legal directory, but everytime I tried to select the directory "legal" from within the finder view, it disappeared and closed the finder window.
    HELP!

    Did you upgrade from a previous version of OS X like 10.3.x or 10.2.x or from a prior version of 10.4.x? If the former, there are probably some files in your previous system folder that need to be restored.
    Otherwise, double click Photoshop when it's closed, and then IMMEDIATELY hold Command + Option + Shift. You'll get a box for resetting the settings. Select Yes and maybe that will help.

  • I was updating Firefox from version 6 to version 7, after updating I tried to open Firefox and the message I got is this: This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found. How can I fix this?

    I was updating Firefox to the newest version 7.0.1 from version 6.0.2 I think it was, I clicked the restart Firefox button that always comes up after updating. It started updating and then Firefox never restarted like it was supposed to after it was done updating. I then tried to open Firefox and it told me "This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found." I did have Firefox crash on maybe about 30 minutes or so earlier which bothered me because I have been using Firefox for years and never had it crash on me before but I didn't think much of it at the time it happened because I was able to go back onto Firefox and finish what I had been working on. A while later I checked for updates and updated. The first time I tried to update it didn't work though so I had to shutdown Firefox and reopen Firefox and start the update a second time. It was after the second time that when I tried to open Firefox I got that message about failing to start because xul.dll can't be found. I filed a crash report when my Firefox crashed. This would have been around 1am-2am in the morning that Firefox first crashed and then wouldn't allow me to open it after updating. I have a DELL laptop running the Windows XP operating system but the laptop is probably at least 6 or 7 years old. The laptop will no longer charge so I always have to have it plugged into an outlet. Both my laptop hard drive and my external hard drive give me messages that I am running out of disk space on my hard drive. I bought this laptop 6 or 7 years ago second hand so it could be even older. In short it's a piece of crap and it gives me all kinds of issues but I currently can't afford a new one, but I have never had any problems with Firefox and I use Firefox more than any other aspect of my laptop so it's really really bothering me. May you please help me fix it?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • Ipod Touch 5 will no longer sync after update 7.1.2

    After updating from iOS 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 my Ipod touch 5th gen no longer syncs with my iTunes 11.3.1.1 when connecting it to my computer (windows 8.1) what comes up on my touch's screen is "trust this computer?" I press the "trust" button then a few seconds later I get the disconnected tone from my computer and nothing else happens (it still charges) and just checked it out on my Windows 7 computer (iTunes 11.3.1.2)and it recognized it fine (but the other computer has my playlists) I've tried updating to iTunes 11.3.1.2, updating iPod drivers and uninstalling then re-installing iPod drivers and iTunes is still not connecting to my iPod. Help please.

    On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
    Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
    You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
    What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
    My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

  • Can no longer read text on browser itself--tabs, headings, etc.--after updating to v 4. How can I enlarge these fonts?

    I just updated to Firefox 4.0. I made NO changes to existing settings. After updating, font size of BROWSER headings, tabs, etc. appear so small that I am barely able to read them. (Note that I am NOT talking about font size on web pages--just on browser itself. ) Have used firefox for years--don't want to give it up--but will have to if can't find a solution for this.

    I don't know where it is going to look.  As I did all the Orthoptera, haing to go to the source of every page, andchanging the links to the moths to the Orthoptera, I had to do the same with other Oders.  Now I am on the Diptera, and went to the previously created Orthoptera gallery and changed the text and link from Orthoptera to Diptera.  But it still shows text and link, moth, instead.  So I continue to have to go to each pages source coded and change individually.
    Here is what I don't understand.  When I go to the folder that is at  C://program files/adobe/adobe photoshop cs4 (64 bit)/presets/web photo gallery,  the renamed, copied and modified folder, Diptera is there, and come up in the choices of templates.  But the text and link modifications don't occur when the gallery is run.  Where could it be going to get the moth stuff, when it goes to this folder for the template? 
    What you said about the 64 bit makes sense, but I don't know where it could be going to create the gallery when the folder named Diptera is ther.

  • HELP! iPod no longer works after update

    I've been using my 20gb clickwheel ipod without incident for a year now, my last update had been iTunes 5 and hadn't updated my iPod recently either (why bother..it worked fine?).
    I wanted to purchase music from the iTunes music store, but it wouldn't let me unless I upgraded to iTunes 6 and updated my iPod. OK - so I did that- upgraded iTunes to 6.0.1 and updated tghe iPod using the latest updated dated 2005-10-12. Then the horror begins.
    On the first attempted synch post update - my iPod screen turned into a folder/exclamation point icon and stopped working. I tried resetting by holding down the center button and menu..it restarted and went back to the same folder/exclamation point icon. No luck.
    I've tried restoring it repeatedly and then synching my library back to the now clean and restored iPod and it stops synching at different points and crashes (after 31 songs - crash iTunes - iPod freezes on the "Do not disconnect" screen - strange clicking noise - restore - try again - 58 songs...same... restore ..again...45 songs.. you get the picture).
    It worked fine BEFORE the update except I couldn't purchase music. There has been NO change except installing the updates (it hasn't been jostled, dropped or anything). What can I do? The update killed my iPod?!!!! I am at my wits end!!!!!!
    -Tory

    OK..I've tried many things and my iPod is still hosed after updating. I upgraded my Mac to Tiger. I was told that the there might be some issues with synching using firewire with the new update - so I bought a USB cable and tried synching with that.
    I have the same issue as before. I can restore the iPod, but when I start synching my music from Itunes back to the blank, restored iPod - it synches up anywhere from 20-200 songs and then freezes (spinning beach ball on one song halfway synched for an hour - then force quit iTunes - and start all over again: restore, synch, crash).
    You know, I got burned by the 1st generation 5gb iPod battery issue, then the headphone jack stopped working on my 2nd generation, now my monochrome clickwheel iPod freaks out after Apple forces me to update so I can get my paid music back (it removed, yes, REMOVED my purchased songs because I was still using an older version of iTunes - when I updated to 6 I got them back - how Microsoft is THAT?).
    I am really losing my faith in Apple's ability to make a quality product.I am despondent. If anyone has any advice - I would be most grateful...

  • After updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google,yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. How can solve this problem?

    after updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google(web ,image,video,map etc),yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. even I cant log out from different sites cz the log out bar is completely disabled. I tried with Firefox 4;5 and 6, same problem exist . I tried by active all add ons for facebook, same problem exist. If I use internet explorer , I don't find such problem with it.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
    BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
    Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

  • Macbook 2.4 2008 after update 10.6.8 and firmware, won't fully boot

    Weird problem after updating to 10.6.8 from 10.6.0 (fresh install).
    I went thru Software Update, it downloaded 10.6.8 and the other updates. It also found that I needed a Firmware Update, which I also choose to install.
    The updates went thru okay, including the Firmware. Everything went exactly as it should. The machine booted as per normal.
    Afterwards, I checked that it had updated normally to 10.6.8 and everything checked out okay. 
    I left the Macbook plugged in and in Sleep. It was like this for probably 24 hours. NO BATTERY INSTALLED (don't know if this could be a problem, but I don't see how). I just came back now to find that I can't get back to the desktop from Sleep, nor can I boot to the desktop.
    Specifically, here's what I see:
    - first, on trying to Wake from Sleep, the screen remained black. The Superdrive spun up, the white light at the front of the Macbook was pulsing. But no desktop.
    - I then held the Power button till it shut down. Then rebooted. And here's what I got:
    a) no startup chime
    b) I could Superdrive and fans and HD spin up
    c) the display turned on, but didn't show the startup screen, no Apple logo, etc. It just went to the Desktop in about 10-15 seconds.
    d) on the Desktop I can see:
    - the Desktop background
    - the Disk Utility window open to Repair Permissions, which was the last thing I'd done on the Macbook (permissions checked out okay)
    - and THIS: I've never seen it before, but the Desktop is a bit "fuzzy", I can see the background and the Disk Utility window though, as well as a NUMBER OF SHORT BARS towards the bottom of the screen, and there's a BAR BY BAR PROGRESS from left to right (the first bar is filled in, then the second, etc.), BUT the progress DOESN'T make it to the last bar before the SCREEN GOES BLACK AGAIN  (*sorry for the caps, but I'm trying to highlight the salient parts).
    Any ideas?
    Is this somehow related to the Firmware update? I remember that the Macbook booted fine after the Firmware update, the long horizontal progress bar was filled in as normal and got to the end; IIRC the Macbook then booted fine. I believe it was at this point that I repaired Permissions. Then left the Macbook, only to return to find it as it is now.
    Any help much appreciated.

    Update:
    Installed 10.6 and did all the updates, am now using it with an external monitor. Working fine as a Mini, but a real bummer re. the black or blue screen.
    Without external monitor connected, I get this:
    - I can boot, with startup chime, from DVD or external hard disk, after holding Option at startup and choosing bootable volume on screen; I can also boot from the DVD by holding down C key
    - When I boot, the startup chime doesn't sound right away, as there's a short delay; in that time (a few seconds), the LED light at the front of the Macbook FLASHES 5 TIMES; there are NO error beep sounds
    - The boot screen starts up, I get Apple logo and spinning wheel, and at about the usual point where the screen goes blue for a couple seconds, before the Macbook boots to the desktop, the screen goes black
    - The Macbook seems to go to Sleep, with the screen black; the front light pulses
    - I can wake the Macbook from Sleep by pressing a key
    - Previously, after waking from Sleep, the Macbook went to the desktop -> in other words, the Macbook completed startup with the black screen;
    - When the Macbook woke from Sleep, there was a slight delay of a few seconds before the Trackpad and Keyboard became active; I then had a few seconds to use the Trackpad before the screen went black again, and the Macbook went back to Sleep
    - Now, though, when I wake it from Sleep, I get a Blue Screen, and the screen stays blue; i.e., doesn't turn black and the Macbook doesn't sleep
    All of this refers to booting the Macbook without an external monitor connected.
    When booting with an external monitor, everything works normally.
    POINTS OF PARTICULAR INTEREST:
    1) all of this happened from the time I updated the Firmware, as per Software Update
    2) the screen works during the boot process, then goes black
    3) boot completes even with black screen
    4) the screen works for a 10 seconds when Macbook wakes from Sleep, then goes black again
    5) now, the screen goes blue - and stays there - when the Macbook wakes from Sleep
    6) Macbook works normally with external monitor; the Macbook's internal display is not recognized when an external monitor is connected; the iSight camera is not recognized
    So, what the heck happened?
    I can understand the internal display and/or onboard video getting broken, but then it should simply not work at all, right? How is it that it works "partially" or "temporarily", during boot and when waking from Sleep, before going black?
    What is with the 5 flashing LEDs at boot or when waking from Sleep? (I can't find any info concerning the Macbook and 5 flashing LEDs, but only concerning the Macbook Air, and it refers to a battery problem).

  • Home sharing does not work after update to snow leopard 10.6.4 and iTunes 9

    I am using home sharing since about a year without any problems. After updating to snow leopard 10.6.4 and iTunes 9.2 it suddenly does not work anymore.
    On my iMac and my Mac Book Pro I get error code 3259 and it tells me to check my firewall and to enable Port 3689.
    I did not change anything in the firewall settings, itunes on both allows data traffic in both directions. I also do not find any option to activate a port ( also wondering why this is suddenly now necessary)
    I deactivated home sharing on both machines and enabled it again. It still does not work.
    On both machines iTunes displays the the library on the left side but like said it is not accessable
    With Finder I can access the other computer from both machines without any problem.
    Any help to solve this would be very much appreciated

    first of all, if you are behind a router firewall, and have your network secured (WPA2 and a long, non-dictionary password made up of letters and numbers), you don't need the software firewall on your Mac(s).
    @ least turned if off for troubleshooting purposes.
    turn home sharing off on both computers, and make sure
    (a) both Macs have access to the internet
    (b) iTunes on both machines is authorized for the same iTunes account.
    turn home sharing back on on both Macs.
    does it work ?

    - Try to update BIOS again

    That is really weird.
    When you are in Windows, can you test and see if the F1 key is working? If it is working. Shut down the laptop then boot it back up. At the Thinkpad screen, keep spamming the F1 key and see if you are able to boot into BIOS.
