Why does the "You need to restart your computer" error appear when I open Vuze?
Hi there,
I apologise that this has probably been asked many times however none of the relevant threads I have come across solved my issue.
I have the most current version of Vuze and a Macbook Pro (Version 10.6.8 OS X).
After using Vuze for a year with zero issues, today I have had to restart my MBP several times due to this error message which is displayed in 5 different languages: "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button until it turns off, then press the Power button again."
This error only occurs when Vuze is open.
No idea why this is the case. Could it perhaps be a file I am downloading?
Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you for your time.Don't unplug the M-box while your MBP is on.

Your MBP may have had a kernel panic. If so, post the kernel panic per these instructions:

What does $ (NOT $_) mean when used by itself?
For replacing User attributes with values of other attributes of that same User, I discovered the following script online:
get-aduser User1 -pr supvid, manager | %{set-aduser -identity $_.samaccountname -Replace @{SupvID=$(get-aduser ($_.manager) | %{$_.samaccountname})}
I have 2 questions about the script:
1. What does the "$" mean when used outside the parenthesis - "$(get-aduser...)"
2. Is this the best way to replace attributes with the values of other attributes for an object?Hi,
Here's an example that will illustrate the benefit of the subexpression operator:
$user = Get-ADUser User1
Write-Host "Here's without a subexpression: $user.SamAccountName"
Write-Host "Here's with a subexpression: $($user.SamAccountName)"
As for your second question, I'd go about what you're doing like this (really just because it's easier to read, IMHO):
$user = Get-ADUser -Identity User1 -Properties Manager
$supvID = (Get-ADUser -Identity $user.Manager).SamAccountName
Set-ADUser -Identity $user -Replace @{SupvID = $supvID}

My iPad, in my opinion is a great device to have whenever I need to use it for work - mainly using it for creating music. However I feel that it's a bit outdated, and I plan to get a new iPad Air for this holiday season and give this one to my children. That being said, I have stumbled across a weird problem that keeps me from backing my iPad (generation 2) up to my computer. The error in question states that "The iPad is currently owned by another computer." By looking around on the internet, I was able to deduce that one of the ways to solve this problem was to put it in recovery mode to get rid of the 'ownership', and this seems logistical. The problem I'm facing now, is that, after trying to find the answer, I do not know how recovery mode has an impact on all the data stored on my iPad. To clarify the question into three parts:
1) Is there a way to back up files from my iPad and easily retrieve them without the use of iTunes?
2) If not, is there a way to get rid of the 'ownership' of another computer other than recovery mode WITHOUT jailbreaking it?
3) If still no, then what are the effects of putting my iPad into recovery mode, and will all of my songs and data be safe?
Thank you for answering, if possible.Was the iPad originally set up on a different computer, and hasn't been synced to the one that you are now trying to use ? There are some instructions on this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
(Before trying that you could copy any important files/documents off the iPad so that you have you own backup copy of them e.g. depending upon what the apps support then email them to yourself, use Dropbox, copy them to your computer via your wifi-network.)
You should be able to copy iTunes purchases off the iPad and over to that computer's iTunes via File > Devices Transfer Purchases, but if you have music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) which aren't in that computer's iTunes (and you haven't got a backup to copy them onto it from) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
For recovery mode, that will result in your iPad being put back to factory defaults i.e. all of your content will be removed from it -
What does this Disk Utility warning message mean?
I just ran Disk Utility on Leopard 10.5, which is installed and running on an external firewire drive, as I still like the ability to run classic on my powerbook g4. Permissions were repaired but this message appeared:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
What should I do now, if anything?Nothing. I think every Leopard user in the world gets this message.
You can safely ignore it. -
how do you transfer material and is it important?
Make sure all content is transferred and device is backed up.

I have a problem with my printer, and I'm trying to access the manual through the printer 'Properties' but it won't let me and I just get this message. I also get this message when I'm trying to upload updates to Adobe Acrobat.

I've been having issues with an external Esata drive. Instead of being seen as a removeable drive, it is seen as a hard drive. This has caused us nothing but problems since our full disk encryption software automatically starts to encrypt
the drive rendering it useless.
The real problem I'm having is installing the Hot Fix, KB979344, for this issue. when tring to install, I get the message, "this update is not applicable to your computer" I've looked and this hot fix doesn't seem to be part of SP1, but
I could be missing it. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
KeithHi Keithk,
This hotfix is already contained in Windows 7 Service Pack 1.
Please add the registry key to check if the issue persists. (For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. )
Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Storage
Create a DWORD Value, name SATAHotplugPolicyOverride,
set 1 in Value Data.
Restart the computer to check if it works.
Regards,
Miya

Experiencing similar issues on both imac and power book: after replacing an original airport extreme with a new airport extreme both computers display a black box msgs that reads: "...turn off your computer by holding down the power button and or the reset button for a few seconds and then restart your computer."...
one of the printers are usb'd to the imac. The printer is not "seeing" the imac nor will it print wireless from the powerbook which was the norm prior to the upgrade on the airport extreme.
Upon restart, the imac does not "see" the wireless keyboard or the mouse until it is "found" again.
At this time the imac or the powerbook can get on line.It sounds like your computer is getting Kernel Panics. Please look at About "You need to restart your computer" (kernel panic) messages and if the message seen on your display is like the one in the link then you have confirmed you had a KP. KP's can be tough to track down because they can be caused by software or hardware. The first place to start is to post the complete crash log so we can look at it, often there are clues in the log.

Reboot your machine make sure Aperture doesn't start (as Lion is liable to do) and try it.

Hi everyone,
My iphone and Ipad got stollen yesterday...
I registered my Ipad onto "my profile" but when I tried to register my Iphone 4 onto "My Profile" it says that the product has been registered under ANOTHER apple ID. What does this mean?! Does this mean that the thief is using my phone under a new apple ID?!
I am getitng abit paranoid because when I tried to download a new app onto my macbook pro, it says that someone had accessed my account from a new computer. I am so scared.. as I know that if they are able to access my apple ID account they can see my billing/card details. I tried to delete my billing address and card details on my apple ID account to prevent this from occuring but I can't. Please help
Many thanks,
KimYou should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.
