What has suddenly gone wrong with Facetime? I'm using OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3

No, cannot revert to the original. Suddenly this new Facetime was imposed on me and it doesn't work. It's okay on a year old MacBook Pro, and it's ok in the iPhone 4S. Just not ok on the imac running on 10.6.3. Cannot try OS update suggested because I am currently 300 miles from the Mac and travelling so will have to wait until I get back. Reluctant to install mavericks because of all the complaints I have seen about incompatibilities. Appreciate the business reasons for constant OS updates, but businesses themselved would always rather remain with tried ant trusted software. I stopped using iMovie entirely because suddenly a new version was imposed that required re-leaening the whole process.

  • Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped

    Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. My laptop is new and has plenty of RAM and HDD. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped working and does not work when I re-load Firefox 3.6. Also IE8 now works very slowly and does not locate major websites like Microsoft without a 'can't find the website message' and having to pressing Return a second time. When I do get to the Mozilla website and click on the button to try to download Firefox 3.6.6, I get this message "Oops! Internet Explorer could not find mozilla3.snt.utwente.nl". Can you help with what has gone wrong? As it stands, I can't use Firefox at all. Note: because Firefox did not work after the upgrade, I've downloaded the IE8 version of the Adobe Flash 10.1. What I really want is to be able to use both Firefox and IE8. But is this possible if they use different versions of Adobe Flash?

    I have been having the same problem as the original poster. After upgrading to Ffx 3.6.6, the program asks you to upgrade to Flash Player Plugin 10.1. I download and installed 10.1 only to find videos weren't loading.
    In my case, the problem is the previous installation of Flash Player (9.0.47) was somehow messing things up. To fix this, because I already had Flash plugin 10.1 installed I had to uninstall 10.1 using the uninstaller from adobe and then manually remove any files related the old flash player plugin 9.0.47
    Here is a run-down of my process:
    0. To check if you have a previous installation of the Flash Plugin lurking around, in Firefox go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins (tab). At this point you may seen both Flash plugins.
    1. Proceed to uninstall Flash Plugin 10.1. Adobe provides an uninstaller here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    ( you have to make sure you have nothing running when you execute the installer).
    2. On my Mac (sorry I don't know what it is in Windows) I searched the hard drive for any files/folders with "Shockwave". I found a folder called "Shockwave 10". It wasn't removed by Adobe's uninstaller. For safety I deleted it and then emptied the trash.
    3. I then went to My HD -> Library -> Internet Plugins.
    Remove the file and folder named "Flash player.old"
    4. Restarted; ran the Adobe Flash Player 10.1 installer. Restarted again.
    5. Opened up ffx and double checked the plugins list (see step 1). Version 10.1 is installed and available. Went to problem sites to test it out and Success!
    Hope this helps.

  • Newbie here...er..has something gone wrong with Apples quality control..!?

    Hi, this is my first post here. I am on my second apple computer, first was a 12inch iBook in 2004 which my partner now has as I went and bought a shiny new macbook in June. When I bought my first apple computer I was a very happy switcher from pc's, I loved my iBook, and learnt mac osx on Panther Lots of fun with movies, photo's and iTunes. The ibook never crashed, never stopped doing what it was supposed to, and never got too hot or made barnyard impressions! So I was looking forward to the upgrade to Tiger, iLife 6 et al when I took delivery of the macbook. And I trusted Steve Jobs and the crew at Cupertino to carry on the the good work and provide the quality hardware and software that I had been trying to persuade all my pc friends to buy into....but...it has all gone horribly wrong. My macbook is at this very moment as I type getting hotter by the second and there is a herd of cows on my desk mooing away. Every now and then..bang.. ramdon shutdown. And every now and then it won't shut down when I want it to. Now I know from the discussion boards that I am not alone with this and that apple issued a fix for the overheating, but then on top of this, I see that iTunes 7 has lots of problems as does the new v10.4.8 update. I am still a mac fan, and I want to stay loyal as I can't bare the thought of going back to pc's, but hey, I just really hope that if there are some quality control issues rearing an ugly head that Mr Jobs remembers that we still have a choice. I'm holding off from downloading the updates until the bugs are fixed, and I will hold off from buying my new 24 inch iMac until I am sure that there are no gremlins with it...and I should not have to be doing this with Macs. Or so I was lead to believe!
    Sorry if my first post sounds a little negative but I just want to enjoy being a mac owner again!

    So I'm guessing that your reliable iBook (the one that never crashed or stop doing what it was supposed to do) wasn't one the first generation of iBooks that Apple made that had the logic board problem that caused Apple to extend the warranty out to 3 years, right?
    http://www.apple.com/support/ibook/faq/
    My point is that your iBook was as good as it was based on the fact that Apple made mistakes on (and learned from) previous generation iBooks.
    Now you buy a first generation product (where Apple's had no chance to learn from previous mistakes because there haven't been any previous mistakes as this is brand-spanking stuff for them) and you're expecting it to be as good as the fifth or sixth generation product that you're replacing.
    Where is the logic in that?
    To me, what matters is how well the manufacturer can address the issues. And although I'm not impressed with the speed at which Apple has dealt with some of the MacBook issues, as it stands (and as far as I know) they've corrected all of them so far. New ones are being manufactured that don't have the issues, and Apple will repair any older MacBook that was manufactured before production was changed. This is more that I can about my experience with my first-year Honda Element.
    Perhaps this is why Windows laptops rarely have huge innovative design changes like Apple made going from the iBook to the MacBook. Most manufacturers don't want to have to deal with the subsequent risks.
    I don't think it's wrong to expect a lot from Apple, but I also don't think that you can ignore the logic of the situation.

  • Using osx snow leopard with boot camp, optical drive keeps ejecting windows 7 disc

    Upgraded my late 2008 macbook pro from leopard to snow leopard.  Added the max 4GB of RAM and replaced the working 250GB hard drive with a new 1TB hard drive.  Rebooted with time machine from external hard drive.  Now tried setting up Bootcamp to add a Windows 7 partition, but the optical drive keeps ejecting the Windows 7 disc after it spins for a few moments.  The optical drive will read other discs, just not the Windows 7 disc.  How do I fix this problem?

    you need to install the new bootcamp drivers from windows. boot into windows, insert the snow leopard DVD, open it and follow the instructions.

  • Something wrong with time&date on OS X Snow Leopard

    I cannot associate this problem to any changes I might did on the system. The only thing I remember, on the last 2 days I updated my Time Machine Backup and applied all available patches through software updates, preparing for Lion.
    Following the symptoms:
    - calendar app only shows all meeting with minutes locked on xx:08. Suppose I add a new meeting, 14:30, it will shows 14:08 (picture below)
    - adding a new meeting, I cannot change the minutes field, it is locked on xx:08
    - Mail app, independent of what time I receive a new message, it will show xx:08 (picture below)
    - my screen saver shows the time locked on 11:08 (no picture)
    but
    - through terminal, date command shows the correct time and the finder clock also shows correct time (picture below)
    Tried already to play with system preferences date & time, reboot, but nothing changed.
    Is it a bug, virus (probably not)?
    Anyone, please help?

    That's close to the likely culprit. 
    Try System Prefs > Language & Text > Formats.  In the Times section, click Customize.
    Make sure everything there is a blue "placeholder," not a specific time (like "08"):

    Dear forumers,
    I apologize for the rather late reply. The SAP server that I've been working on was down since Thursday evening and I wasn't able to debug much into the codes. Nevertheless, I really do appreciate all of your inputs and help here.
    Rob,
    I've just debugged my codes again and found out that in the first place, there is no data contained in the internal table gt_1 at all. My rough guess is because I've misused the INNER JOIN wrongly here (see code comments below):-
      SELECT ekbe~ebeln
             mseg~mblnr
             ekbe~belnr
             ekbe~ebelp
             ekbe~matnr
             ekbe~menge
             ekbe~dmbtr
             ekbe~werks
             mseg~lgort
             mseg~lifnr
             lfa1~name1  " this line should probably be commented out
      FROM ekbe INNER JOIN mseg ON mseg~ebeln = ekbe~ebeln
                        INNER JOIN lfa1 ON lfa1~lifnr = mseg~lifnr   " this line should probably be commented out - the table join here is not based on table ekbe at all
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE gt_1
      WHERE mseg~bwart = '101' AND     
            ekbe~vgabe = '2' AND 
            ekbe~matnr IN s_m_num AND
            mseg~lifnr IN s_v_num.
    Next, I commented out certain lines further and found that there is still no data contained in the internal table gt_1 again, as follows:-
      SELECT ekbe~ebeln
             mseg~mblnr
             ekbe~belnr
             ekbe~ebelp
             ekbe~matnr
             ekbe~menge
             ekbe~dmbtr
             ekbe~werks
             mseg~lgort
             mseg~lifnr
             " lfa1~name1
      FROM ekbe INNER JOIN mseg ON mseg~ebeln = ekbe~ebeln
                        " INNER JOIN lfa1 ON lfa1~lifnr = mseg~lifnr
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE gt_1.
      " WHERE mseg~bwart = '101' AND     
            " ekbe~vgabe = '2' AND 
            " ekbe~matnr IN s_m_num AND
            " mseg~lifnr IN s_v_num.
    There should be data contained in table ekbe here. What could have really gone wrong now?
