Weird problem after exiting soundbooth

for some reason when i exit soundbooth (and a few other programs in the creative suite), the windows do not fade in and out when opening and closing a window. also the minimizing and maximizing effect was gone. do any of you guys have this problem? please just tell me what happens after you exit the program

Hmm, very weird. It looks like this was happening after I configured MAC filtering and let the Airport Utility do a reboot when requested.
I just tried manually turning my Airport Extreme off (unplugging cable) for about 10-15 seconds, and after turning it on again, I was able to access it without any problems. Everything works great now. Not sure why, but it seems like this worked.
Cheers!

  • Weird problem after calling transaction...

    Hello experts,
    Please take a look at my code below:
    AT LINE-SELECTION.
      DATA: lv_fnam(50) TYPE c,
            lv_fval(50) TYPE c,
            lv_asset_dum    TYPE anla-anln1,
            lv_assetsub_dum TYPE anla-anln2.
      GET CURSOR FIELD lv_fnam VALUE lv_fval.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        CASE lv_fnam.
          WHEN 'WA_OUTPUT-ASSET_SUBNUM'.
            SPLIT lv_fval AT '-' INTO lv_asset_dum lv_assetsub_dum.
            SET PARAMETER ID 'BUK' FIELD wa_output-company.
            SET PARAMETER ID 'AN1' FIELD lv_asset_dum.
            SET PARAMETER ID 'AN2' FIELD lv_assetsub_dum.
            CALL TRANSACTION 'AW01N' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.
          WHEN 'WA_OUTPUT-EQUIP_NUM'.
            SET PARAMETER ID 'EQN' FIELD lv_fval.
            CALL TRANSACTION 'IE03' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.
        ENDCASE.
      ENDIF.
    the value of WA_OUTPUT-ASSET_SUBNUM is shown as asset number + asset subnumber.
    for example:
    1468-0000
    Now, when we look at transaction AW01N it requires the company code, asset number and the sub number.
    When you look at my code, I am splitting WA_OUTPUT-ASSET_SUBNUM at '-' and put them in 2 variables
    as shown above. But when I call transaction AW01N it says that 'No depreciation areas defined for
    asset 1468-0. It weird since when I manually enter those values it is fine.
    Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot guys and take care!

    Hello again experts,
    here now is my revised code. It still has the same problem which says no depreciation areas defined for asset 1468-0.
    After debugging it, lv_asset_dum has a value of 1468 and lv_assetsub_dum has a value of 0000. This should work fine if I enter it manually.
    AT LINE-SELECTION.

  • 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.

  • Network has weird problem after Resume from suspend...

    hi guys,
    I have a ThinkPad T60 laptop with archlinux at home. and I have a router with wlan supported for the internet. Suspend/Resuming (pm-utils) works. Recently after resuming, the network-manager says WLAN connected with ESSID, but internet connection was lost. it is weird:
    I can really connect the WLAN, e.g. I can ping another computer's IP and exchange files with it,
    I can see my wlan by iwlist,
    but I cannot reach the IP address of the router by Ping.
    I tried restarting network-manager, switching off and on the wireless adapter neither worked. the only way I found to bring the network back is restarting the router. 
    I list the stuff that I thought would be helpful here, hope someone can give some hints.
    thanks in advance.

  • Weird problem after updating to 1.2

    Hi,
    recently I updated to the iPod 1.2 software, but when I try to play some of the songs, it freezes and refuses to play unless I skip forward, press pause, then play again. I tried restoring the iPod, creating a new library etc, but it doesn't work! Please help! (If this problem still presists, I'll go to the Apple store, but I hope I don't have to)
    BTW, my iPod is a 60 GB Black model.
    Thanks!
    Dell e1405   Windows XP  

    From the number of posts regarding the same issue with 1.2 and any ipod with a color display (both my ipod nano and video ipod crapped out), there is obviously a serious bug with this "upgrade."
    I agree we should give them a chance, but I find it unacceptable that after this amount of time that the Applecare support technicians, up to TIER 3, have never even heard of this issue. They wanted me to return my ipod(s) in for factory service even after I numerously reminded them that they both work perfectly once downgrading to 1.1.1!
    I am a long-time apple-geek, but this issue upsets me because it is so uncharacteristic of the standards of excellence Apple has always provided, and smacks of the pervasive frustration we all deal with when using Microsoft products.
    ......and it is especially frustrating that all of the purchases I excitedly bought once videos are now provided at 640x480 resolution are not playable with version 1.1.
    But with version 1.2, the higher resoultion videos are transferable to the ipod, but no videos are playable due to this firmware incompatibilty.
    Apple: do you read these discussion forums??

  • Weird problems after System updates

    I downloaded updates for iTunes and Java earlier this week, and now I have some weird behavior going on with my iMac. I'm running 10.5.8 and Safari 5.0.2. When I'm using the computer the windows have started jumping around, moving from side to side, or one window moving to the front, then the back, by themselves. There is sometimes a noise...hard to explain, but sounds kind of like bom, bom, bom. It's happened before, but usually goes away with a restart. Not this time, though...
    Anyone else had this problem, and/or hopefully able to suggest a fix?

    Hi,
    Rule out any problems with the startup disk since the software is "jumping around" ...
    Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
    (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
    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
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. M*ake sure there is always 15% free space.*
    If the startup disk is ok, might be a good idea to run the Apple Hardware Test considering the, "bom bom bom" sounds, instructions here.

  • Weird problems after SMC firmware update

    Hi,
    So I have a MacBook Pro bought in July 2007. I installed the new firmware update yesterday and noticed today that my computer gets a lot warmer. If I try to run an application that does more processing, some buttons on my screen turn black, I can't move windows and the backlight starts to flash like crazy giving me a nice disco effect if I turn the lights off.
    /var/log/system.log will show stuff like the following:
    Jun 2 20:33:59 edvard-fagerholms-macbook-pro kernel[0]: NVDA(OpenGL): Channel exception! status = 0xffff info32 = 0x1 = Fifo: Fifo Method Error
    Jun 2 20:34:00 efagerhos-macbook-pro kernel[0]: 0000000b

    Jun 2 20:34:59 efagerhos-macbook-pro kernel[0]: NVChannel(Display): Graphics channel timeout!
    All my problems started after trying an application written in Java, which seemed to require lot of processing power and made my computer very warm. After this I have also been unable to get my DVD drive to read any DVD. If it turns to be the update, I am pretty ****** of that they release an update that can physically kill a perfectly well working computer. Especially, when it's already out of warranty.
    Does anyone else experience any similar problems?

    I am pretty sure it's the graphics even though the Apple "genius" claimed it wasn't. The genius told me the RAM chips were broken. Ok, so I bought new RAM, the computer booted up, worked for about 30 minutes and the problem came back.
    However, the computer boots up flawlessly to single-user mode by pressing apple-s during boot (even with the old RAM), so I can access the disk and use it as a typewriter in the console... I also coded a poor mans memory tester that allocated memory and wrote random stuff to it, and it worked fine with my old RAM chips. If I try to start the machine normally, then according to the logs, the computer freezes at the exact moment when it's starting up the login screen. If I assume correctly how OS X works, I would suspect that this is the moment it switches from some kind of a video BIOS framebuffer mode into an accelerated mode provided by the nvidia graphics driver.
    I also noticed after using the root console in single-user mode for about 30 minutes (I was making a Linux USB stick to start it through rEFIt, to do some further diagnostics) that the black console background had these faint blue horizontal lines going from the top of the screen to the bottom. This is usually a sign that the graphics chip is busted.
    It seems like it's time to get a new appointment in the Genius Bar.

  • Weird problem after i plugged in my ipod

    I just plugged in my ipod to charge and listen to music and it started making this buzzing noise. I clicked itunes and the ipod didnt appear on the side bar, so i couldnt eject it. it says "do not eject" but the screen is different from what it should be. It's black and white (sort of like an old ipod). Also, the charging icon looks a little screwed up. The lightning bolt is on the end of the battery icon (instead of the center); I'm not sure if thats relevent or not. After a few minutes i just unplugged it and tried turning it off, but nothing happened. I plugged it back in and my computer doesnt recognize the device. Any clue how to fix it? It wont turn off or restart because i had it on hold when i plugged it in and it froze.

    Breaks down? Please elaborate. Do you get any errors? Does iTunes close?
    With the issues you are describing it could be Windows it could be iTunes. Make sure that Windows is running smoothly. Does your computer run slowly when you are running iTunes?
    1st - Backup all of your music(anything in iTunes)
    2nd - Remove iTunes(deauthorize your computer first)
    3rd - Preform all Windows updates
    4th - Reinstall the latest version of iTunes(being 10 updates behind is generally a bad idea) More often than not they fix things when they break things that is why you have a back up external Hard drives are cheap.
    5th - Reimport all of your content to iTunes
    6th - Reauthorize your account
    7th - Check for smooth playback and operation
    8th - Re sync your iPod.

  • Weird problems after clean install on Win 7 64 bit

    So I just built out a brand new machine with Win 7 64 bit and installed CS4 on it.  PS works great, super quick!  As I went through and tried to work on some websites last night, I found that the File/Open, File/Save and File/SaveAs options don't work?  When you first open Dreamweaver (or Flash - haven't tested anything other than PS/DW/FL) the initial opening screen you can click on new HTML doc for example but clicking Open... doesn't bring up the windows open/browse dialog box.  My DW install is all up to date and I tried to install over the top of it but that didn't help.  Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Thanks in advance for any insight or help you can offer!
    --J

    I have been running Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows 7 64-bit without problems for over a month (new machine, not upgraded from a previous version of Windows). The only part that fails is the documented problem with selecting the site root in a new site definition (see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/478327).

  • Weird Problem after Rendering

    Okay, so my first edit was a 2 hour long video that was recorded by software from DxTory which records video games. This records in 1080 P so that's what I was hoping to get from the video. After editing, and exporting and rendering in the MPEG HDTV 1080p 29.97 which turned out to be about 12.5 GB large. Uploading this to YouTube I found that the video is only viewable in 360p not what I had expected in 1080p. Did I do something wrong while rendering, if so, what can I do to get my videos to be in 1080 p on YouTube.

    CurtisC
    You are going to be bound by the upload limitations of your exports. There is no way to extend the Premiere Elements 12 Publish+Share/Social Websites/YouTube limitations of file size 2.0 GB/15 minutes. However, if you take your Timeline to a file, you still have to deal with YouTube at the YouTube web sites. You can get extended limitations there that you cannot get through the within Premiere Elements upload route.
    Of all the export choices from Premiere Elements, probably the smallest file size would be expected from a Publish+Share/Computer/Windows Media export (see customization under Advanced Button). But, even there a 12.5 GB seems even much for YouTube to OK. But, I do not know how far YouTube will go with these special accounts with extended limits.
    Although Facebook and Vimeo do not show limitations in the Premiere Elements Social Websites feature, they appear to have them. See their web sites for further information on that.
    Will decreasing the duration of your video compromise the video message that you are trying to convey with your presentation? Can you get your messages across in a series of shorter videos?
    Have you looked at the Windows Media and AVCHD .mp4 choices under Publish+Share/Computer?

  • Wifi  weird problem after upgrade on 4.1 (Iphone 3GS )

    I have a strange wifi behaviour on my 3GS that appear just after the 4.1 upgrade
    if i let the wifi connect overnight, it's not working anymore after some time
    I see the networks around, i can connect, but no data goes thru
    If i just reboot ( or respring sometime ) wifi work again ...
    Is this because 4.1 is so buggy, or something else ?
    dont want to loose hours to do a DFU restore for nothing
    PS : As we pay so much for their stuff, if Apple could just work a little bit on the QUALITY of the code for iOS ? thx a lot

    The IT group re-downloaded the compressor 4.1.1 app and it worked the second time around. Files sizes were exactly the same so I don't know what was up with the first attempt. Anyway, fixed!

  • Really WEIRD problem after install

    I just got an old Quicksilver from work so I can do some work from home, but I had to buy the apps, including Adobe CS3. So I needed Tiger.
    Found out I couldn't install from an external DVD.
    Then when I went to work, half hour away, booted the new drive as targeted firewire and installed from a comp with a HD there, came home to do the internet updates but it wouldn't boot.
    Went back, clean install, wiping partition I'm putting it on. Did the option of connecting it to my old computer (dragged old AND new computer to work), then updated. Now it's home.
    When it boots up, iCal crashed at about the same time I get an error message that Norton Antivirus can't run or something.
    I've never had NAV. Had Systemworks. Doesn't say what program version it is, so I can't prove I never had it on the old (and we never had it on the one at work) AND I wiped the ******* AND partitioned it before starting.
    Anyone heard of anything like this?

  • Weird problem after upgrading to 7.1.1

    I'm running Windows XP Pro and just upgraded to 7.1.1. Now for some strange reason whenever iTunes is running the System process is consuming 10-25% of CPU time... is anyone else experiencing this?

    I have upgraded to iTunes 7.1.1 and now my 60Gb iPod is in a restore loop,
    iTunes loads the ipod, you get the meessage to say that it is corrupt, you go thrugh the restore, unplug, plug it in to the power outlet, try again and get the same message.
    ipod worked fine before the upgrade, i have uninstlled and re-installed itunes, and tried on an alternate machine.
    any help would be much appriciated.

  • Problems after Xcode 2.5 Installation?

    I wanted to check if anyone else was having weird problems after installing Xcode 2.5. Namely, a huge chunk of the libraries I installed in /usr/local/ seems to have been wiped out, causing programs that have dependencies to not work. So now I have install them all over again. Has anyone else had this happen?

    I must have misread the question. My answer is wrong. I thought it read after upgrading to 10.5.
    Installing Xcode2.5 shouldn't have anything to do with what is in /usr/local. If it hoses that, it is completely unacceptable and a horrible bug.

  • Weird problems with 2007 15" MBP after installing new HD, any solution?

    Folks-
    For a couple of months my machine has been really weird.
    (1) Safari will not work. Firefox does, other internet apps do, but no Safari.
    (2) everything is ever slower. Spinning beachballs constantly.
    (3) won't remember home wifi network. It remembers the pw, but must select the network
    (4) won't sleep when scheduled, only when closed or immediately commanded to sleep.
    I would say that these weird problems surfaced after I installed a new optical drive, after I upgraded to 10.7, etc, except that the main problems are absent when I start up from the old HD externally mounted (the refusal to sleep when scheduled is also present statring from the old HD).
    This could indicate some wierd driver thing with the new drive, or a system software event I didn't notice or one of these "malware" things, right? Maybe?
    Any ideas for how to troubleshoot this would just rock.
    Thanks!

    Since you have your old hard drive here's a suggestion:
    Step One: Boot from the external drive.  Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager appears.  Select the icon for the external drive then click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Step Two: New Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your new internal hard drive (entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID  then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Step Three: Clone the old drive to the new drive
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    4. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the new internal drive. Source means the old external drive.
    Step Four: Open the Startup Disk preferences and select the new internal volume.  Click on the Restart button.  You should boot from the new drive.  Eject the external drive and disconnect it from the computer.
