No one here is responsible for your system, or can guarantee anything.
And what if your desktop manager don't load after installing it?
No big deal, you would only have to install back the old driver from console and thats it. If you find that uncomfortable, then I think you are using the wrong distro.
Use common sense:
If catalyst-utils and mesa-libgl conflict, and is asking you to uninstall mesa, it means you already have mesa installed, right?
So, if your system has mesa, and your system is working fine with it, then what option you should choose for lib32-libgl?
1) lib32-catalyst-utils 2) lib32-mesa-libgl 3) lib32-nvidia-304xx-utils
4) lib32-nvidia-utils

After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!

After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!
iTunes is a mess! It couldn't find it's own libraries and I was forced to create a new one. Now I don't know where my music is or if any's missing.

It's not crap at all.
It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
There has to be a solution.
Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
and maintain a current backup of your computer.

Is this yet another problem with 7.5 or is it just me . . .

Upgrade seemed to be fine, at first . . . now I keep getting distortion on songs. It seems to be quite random and just because a song has been distorted when I've listened to it once doesn't mean it will be when I listen to it again! It's driving me insane. Is this yet another bug or have I done something wrong (apart from upgrading to 7.5).

Hi Emlou,
If you have a Windows based operating system such as XP -
It seems to me that you are suffering what I am having the same problem with - the program takes up to much of your computer's processing usage. If you go into your task manager and watch performance as ITunes runs - you will see how much of the total computer usage it is taking at any given moment - that's why your songs are distorted, slowing, garbled, etc - the usage on mine spikes from 11% - 93% AT ANY GIVEN MINUTE! I have no idea why, but I have found that by going to your "Control Panel" and clicking on Quicktime you can adjust audio output to help. Click the audio tab, click Safe Mode Wavout only (checkbox) / Then adjust the "Rate" to 96kHz / Then adjust the "Size" to 16 bit. Close that and shut down and restart Itunes - it might help a little for you.
Maybe someone out there can help us find out why we are suffering with all the CPU usage trouble and how to adjust that spiking.
Thanks!

Yet another customer with Photoshop CC crashing on opening!

Hi
Photoshop CC keeps closing as soon as it opens on my PC. I have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled over five times since starting my subscription to CC two days ago, to no avail. I have thoroughly cleaned my PC, followed all the advice I can find about resolving the problem, but no luck. There have been a couple of variations: the aspp has opened and then asked if I wish to migrate my CS6 setting to it - I have tried both options, but the app just closes. I also manage to open a photo ready for editing. but as soon as the photo appeared in the editing window I was asked if I weanted to svae it and the app then closed.
I am at my wits end and increasingly annoyed with Adobe. Can anyone please help before I am faced with the inevitable choice of cancelling my subscription?

Hi Jeff
I spent about four hours today in discussions the Adobe Technical Team trying to sort out the problem. There was no standard solution and the issue was about to be escalated when a solution was found by Syed Faraz on the team. I have just been testing its robustness and so far so good.
Unfortunately I have no idea what caused the problem as my desktop was temporarily taken over. However, so far4 so good and I was much impressed by the patience and determination shown by Mr Faraz.
Nevertheless, many thanks for your offer of help.

[yet another] problem with proxy

On my PC, sometimes I am connected directly to the Internet and sometimes via VPN. In the latter case, all Internet traffic goes via http/https/socks proxy. In either of these situations Skype works well, but...
The is a problem when I disconnect from VPN, that is:
1. I am connected directly to the Internet
2. Skype is working well
4. I connect to VPN
5. Bang...Skype gets disconnected and does not manage to re-connect
6. I re-start Skype and everything is OK (that is, Skype starts working via proxy)
Funny thing is, that in the opposite direction (when I start Skype while connected to VPN and than disconnect the VPN tunnel), Skype manages to detect this (probably because the VPN network interface goes down) and re-connects automatically. However, it cannot re-connect automatically when VPN tunnel is established.

finally ive got some one suffering in same problem.
hei buddy me also having the same prob.
i use cakewak for recordings
during recording there is no prob
but when i play the tracks my new recorded track started to get faster then the previous track
as i play guitar on the basis of drums track
after a min it is no more on beat
its beame half socond faster
havent you solved your prob yet???

HELP NEEDED.....Yet Another Issue With The S510P

Okay first off, when I bought this laptop....I was using a computer I had owned since 2001 and it worked but was slow. Ever since I have purchased this laptop, I have encountered one issue after another. First it was registry errors, then after that it was trying to uninstall a program which it refused to do, Windows not loading properly, and now I am having issues with the Photo section of the Library. When I go to use a photo, half of them do not load and the ones that do are partially loaded. Which of course causes the computer to freeze up and the restart the page I was on, today this has happened 5 TIMES.
I need help fixing this, and I will also state I will NEVER purchase a Lenovo product again. Leave it to this company to sell a $700 computer that is riddled with issues and then to tell your customer that its their problem.
Mind you this is coming off of the heels of waiting 1 month for a freaking power cable, and then they tell me that they want the old one back or else they will charge me for it. Good luck Lenovo, it is under warranty so as you told me, "That's your problem."

Hi cgraham86!
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Unresponsive keys or key mapping issues are certainly not "normal" or how iPhone is designed to function. While it's impossible to know exactly what the issue is, your phone is covered for at least one-year by Apple against issues like this. That is of course, assuming there's no physical or water damage done to the phone. +General disclaimer, as I don't have your phone in front of me.+
As for the next step, it's obvious that someone within AppleCare needs to have a look at the phone and determine the issue (replicate, etc.). It is then that they can issue a more suitable solution and/or judgement on the issue. In the case of a visit to an Apple Store that would be a Mac Genius (via an appointment).
I'd say make an appointment, with your iPhone, explain the issue and get them to replicate it. While I certainly can't promise they'll swap the phone for you, it'd seem as though an unresponsive device feature is grounds for covered by the limited one-year hardware warranty.

Yet another thread with contacts transfer issues

I bought a new Torch 9860 and tried to transfer all my data from my old Storm II 9520 with the BB desktop manager but none of my contacts made it to the new deivce. I searched these forums and found at least half a dozen of threads with this problem go unanswered and another load suggesting alternative solutions such as BBProtect or Outlook Sync. I am utterly disappointed in the fact that RIM cannot be arsed to put a friggin 'Transfer Contacts' button on the desktop software. Cannot even copy them to my sim or transfer through bluetooth. This is a ridiculously massive oversight from RIM. Please realize that you make phones for business people. Not being able to easily and simply transfer contacts is unacceptable.

In fact now I tried doing it with backup-restore and BBDM came up with this:
Just in case you don't knkow what to look at: tha 'Addres Book' is dimmed indicating that it cannot be restored. I tried every kind of different settings (hence the 3 backups within 10 minutes) but it just doesn't work.
I swear this is the worst experience I ever had with any phone switch, and this is the first time I upgraded my phone with the same companyäs newer model and with the same provider so in theory it should be as smooth as possible.

Ok, yet another problem with my mini...frusterating much?

Alright, I have an iPod mini, it is a 4 Gig Ipod mini, said to hold up to a thousand songs or so. Mine currently is holding 438 songs. My itunes on the other hand has 703 songs, and only holds up to 3.69 gigs. Which leaves me with a fair bit of room I would think. I am hesitant to use the restore to factory settings thing and erase everything since i have had such trouble with that in the past. My ipod says there is not enough free space to hold all those songs and furthermore I have lost quite a few off of my mini. I don't know what I should do and how to go about it! Any help would be wonderful. Thanks.
Sarah

No in actual fact its about 449, I went and restored my ipod, and that's pretty bad if they advertise it for 4 gigs and only give you 3.7 gigs. But in any case it has held up to 703 in the past, which is how many I have in my library at the moment. But it just spent about six hours updating and hasn't moved which I don't understand. Should I restore it again? I don't know what else to do, I can get rid of some of my songs, but I wouldn't like too, there is enough space for all my fav's. So I'm at a loss of what to do. Help? Also, when I was having trouble before it did this as well, but I don't know how I fixed it, it was quite a few months ago. I keep getting this error that says " disk cannot be read from or written too" does that have something to do with my usb port?

Yet another iCloud with multiple Apple IDs question

I have a Mac, iPhone 3G, and an iPad 2. My wife has an iPod. I have historically synced via the desktop, and my music, calendar, contacts, etc. have shared just fine. I have a Mobile Me account which may or may not be doing anything for me. I understand it's going away anyhow.
Two of my devices share the same Apple ID, and one has a different ID. I don't know what my wife's iPod has for an Apple ID. One of the Apple IDs is a @me.com address.
I have set things up for iCloud, trying to have my calendar, photos, etc. come alive at once like they do in the commercials. After hours reading others' frustrations on here, I still am unsure how to proceed.
I can't change my @me.com AppleID because that is apparently against the rules. I can't add my other email address as a secondary address, because I am informed that that address is already verified as being in use (of course it is, by me). It won't let me change my other Apple ID to an @me.com address because that is also apparently against the rules.
Is there ANY solution that let's me keep syncing my music, plus let's me sync my calendar, contacts, photos, etc. in the Cloud? I don't want to lose any of my current information.

Thanks for the quick reply. I don't think it helps me.
My Mac and iphone have the same Apple ID. I innocently created a different AppleID when I bought my iPad. ([email protected]). I want them to sync automatically. They don't because they have different "clouds."
I don't want to have to log in to sync everything. If that were the case, I would just go on syncing every night via the Mac. Is there a way to get to where my iPad syncs with the other two?
Am I missing something simple here?

Yet another user with "grayed-out" music

I've recently switched to new mac. I guess i didn't sync iphone properly because all my music is grayed-out and not on my mac. none of it's itunes purchased, it's all non-replaceable non drm recordings. where did they go? why can't i play it through itunes when i connect my iphone? is mac really that user-friendly?! seriously, any help would be much appreciated.

Hey thanks, Turingtest2.
This is probably the wrong place to address the grayed out symbols.
A screenshot isn’t even essential to describing the phenomenon: Its the gray dashed circle symbol alongside the playlist
& the tunes themselves may be grayed out. As though it needs to stream or download. The symbology is fairly new & I haven’t found an explanation or key, which should be my first plan of attack.
The music now grayed out USED to be on the iPad/iPod devices & most, if not all were purchased via iTunes. A few may have some off my own disks. Also, I used to keep some music files in AIFF on an older gen iPod & I don’t think those are well supported on iOS, if at all any more.
Perhaps that’s part of the picture.
Background: I was trying to pare down an overburdened iPad that had all sorts of odd bits of music - stuff I broke up to learn to play the passages & myriad other audio files off recorders, etc that really are just storage on my mac, but were inadvertently copied to the mobile device. Anyway, the iPad is nearly maxed & cleaning the library to just selected music.
I also see that other people are experiencing issues similar to mine & right or wrong, attributing it to a glitch in iTunes 12 & the iOS.
Its really not pertinent to this old thread, I suppose. I have a slightly more detailed post of my own on the forum as well. I stumbled on this thread while trying to research similar complaints & missed the origination date.

Yet another Z3C with WIFI issues...

Hello All, So I am not a newbie in the world of smartphones and today I have an issue with my Z3C which is affecting me since I bought it, not long time ago. The wifi, mostly every 10/20 minutes just stop to work. It show activity in Upload but no activity in Download. Which make me mad as I have a 50mbps internet connection that works perfectly with a Moto X, an Alcatel Idol 2 Mini S, a pletora of Laptops and Smart Devices, and one HP VoiceTab 6. All speedtests show me about 40/48mbps download speed, only the Z3C Download speed arrive to 30/40mbps then drastically goes to 2/5mbps 'til it drops to 0. Now, I tried everything, reset, factory reset, safe mode, different routers (I have 2 home and tried in different restaurants and offices), different sims, no sims at all.. it just don't work. So what I did is to use just LTE that it's of course fast and problemsless BUT why do I have to make happy my carrier when I can use the WIFI of home and office? Is Sony going to pay my plan?

Thommo wrote:
I'm not saying this is the reason but some routers have security and when performing speed tests get sent data which maybe deemed as Malware then the router will block connectivityAgree with you, I already tried it. Disabled firewall, security in general.. I made my routers also open gardens! Imagine... The curious part of that is the other devices works perfectly except the Z3C so cannot be the router or a security setting getting crazy with the Z3C and not with Moto X, Alcatel.. HP, Toshiba.. Samsung... and no, I don't want to think about racism and hate of dLink and Arris (Motorola) against Sony! No no..

Yet another release with no Window Switching???

How is it that we still do not have a method for effectively switching between ALL open windows on a Mac? How? Command+Tab, switch to an app, dang thing should pop to the front, and not require me to go click on it form some dock or something. WAY too many keystrokes to go to a mission control of some desktop layout animator just to get to the last window you had up. To me it doesn't matter that its a Linux thing, a Microsoft thing or whatever - its a "thing" that many seem to expect and want, and has still not been delivered. Any idea why?
Thanks.

I don't know if this helps, but the keyboard shortcut to switch in an app to the next window of the same app is ( Command ) + ( ~ ).
( Command ) + ( ~ )
Also if you have multiple windows open in an app and you want to switch to a specific window you can ( Command ) + ( Tab ) and then while still holding ( Command ) down press the ( Up Arrow ). It will allow you to switch between the windows of said app.
( Command ) + ( Tab ) Then while holding ( Command ) Press ( Up Arrow), No longer need to hold ( Command ) / ( Left or Right Arrows ) to switch windows ( Return ) to select.
Sorry if my explanation is confusing.

Yet another export issue with Aperture 3

Judging by a search of topics, there seem to be a myriad of problems associated with getting files out of Aperture, some of which represent occult setting issues, others which seem to be actual bugs. I've run into an issue which seems to defy categorization, and I'm not sure if it's me doing something wrong, or if it is actually yet another bug with this software. I've been an Aperture user since 1.0 and I have to say the current version I'm running (3.4.3) is by far the worst yet. Anyway, enough whining. Here are the issues:
I'm running Aperture on a 6 core Mac Pro with Lion 10.7.5. There are two thing happening.
1. Exporting JPEGs is INCREDIBLY slow - perhaps as long as 4 or 5 minutes for a 3MB file.
2. This is the one driving me batty right now. Tried exporting a batch of images as JPEGs at the 50% original size setting. The master files are large 16 bit TIFF images from Nikon D800 RAW files, post-processed in Nik HDR Efex Pro 2. They are 80-100MB in size. When I export the images to a file on my Desktop, it consistently exports 6- 10 KB thumbnails. I've checked and rechecked my export settings and can find nothing amiss there. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Could the view I'm working in have anything to do with this? I work 95% of the time in split view.
Thanks,
Russ

I agree that there re a lot of posts about exporting, but a very large number of them refer to the same thing, and it's not a bug, but rather a misunderstanding.
For instance:
Tried exporting a batch of images as JPEGs at the 50% original size setting.
Okay.
The master files are large 16 bit TIFF images from Nikon D800 RAW files, post-processed in Nik HDR Efex Pro 2
Not relevant.
They are 80-100MB in size.
Not relevant either.
Why?
Because size refers to the dimensions of the image. So a 1,000 x 1,000 pixel image exported at 50% will turn out as 500 x 500 pixels.
Were you expecting a jpeg between 40 and 50 MB? That's Jpeg quality or the amount of compression applied to the image. And as you're compressing a lossless format (tiff) to a lossy one, and one with an aggressive compression algorithm, he resulting Jpeg, even at high quality, will be much, much smaller, more likely in the 6 - 8 MB range.
That's the nature - and indeed the point - of Jpegs.
So, if you're getting 6 - 10 kb images, you're exporting at a very low Jepg Quality.
This may also explain why it's taking so long to export. Getting rid on 99.99% of the data and compressing into 10kb is always going to take time.

Yet another MacBook Pro with display issues (NVdia chip)

Exactly one year and 1 week after purchase, my video controller started freaking out. So just 1 week out of warranty, my display started flickering, blinking, showing garbled clumps of pixels and got progressively worse over the last week until, now, it locks up and/or reboots after about 15 minutes of uptime.
I have:
- installed all updates, including firmware
- reset PRAM
- re-seated RAM
- replaced RAM
- used SMC FanControl to try and keep the GPU cool
- parked the MacBook in front of the fan/air conditioner in an attempt to keep the GPU cool
- ran the Hardware Test, which returned a faulty video controller
None of the above have had any positive effect whatsover.
I've dug through these forums and hunted around the rest of the net for more info. Every symptom points to the NVidia GeForce issue. It seemed to be heat related. Maybe it was at first (even though max temps were never over 180 F), but after just one more day it doesn't seem to matter anymore. The machine is just FUBAR.
Tomorrow, I'm taking it in to the Apple store for service. Everything I've read here tells me it'll be at $1,000 logic board replacement since I'm a week out of warranty. Needless to say, if I come home tomorrow with a $1,000 receipt AND no laptop I'm going to be pretty upset.
What really concerns me is that, if I have to get the logic board replaced, they'll just put in yet another faulty board with another NVdia chip that will do the same thing all over again. There has to be another option, short of just getting a new iMac or tower with an ATI card instead. What else can I do?

http://noizesurge.com/downloads/gpu2.jpg - incidentally my computer had completely frozen at this point.
I'm pretty sure from observing these types of glitches that this is a hardware fault. I shall ring Apple on Monday and hopefully they can pick it up and sort it all out! Does anyone know roughly how long a turnaround is in the UK?
Yes, your video controller is toast. That's exactly how mine looked.
Just to make certain, run the Hardware Test:
- Put in DVD 1 that came with your MacBook Pro.
- Shut down
- Restart, holding the D key
- You'll be put into test mode, run the default test (no need to run the robust test at this stage)
I'm betting it will return a message that looks like: "4VDC/1/40000003: videocontroller"
If so, your logic board will have to be replaced.
The Apple Store I went to (Michigan Ave, Chicago) told me it would take 5-7 days. I'm not sure what UK times would be like, but I'd expect a little longer.
bikemonkey wrote:
Incidentally, people are saying that they've have logic boards and what not replaced only for the problem to reoccur. Does this mean nVidia haven't properly fixed the issue?
Correct. Nvidia hasn't done a thing about this (that I'm aware of), and Apple seems to be putting the same logic boards with the faulty Nvidia chips back in.
Until we see a new/refreshed line of MacBook Pro's, I think we're stuck.
