White keyboard needs to toggle power every time computer is started

I need to toggle power every time computer is started. OSX doesn't 'see' the keyboard when restarting or starting.
ALSO
When running XP in bootcamp, I can get XP to 'see' the keyboard, but I can't get it to work at all.
Please help.

Hello tak:
I am assuming your Bluetooth module is built-in.
There is no software setting to address what you describe. The KB may have a problem. However...
Instead of switching the device on and off, try tapping a key or two.
Try installing new batteries and/or removing and reinstalling them.
I do not run Windows (and never plan to do so) so I have no feedback on the XP issue.

RAID 1 disks resync every time computer is starting

Hi All,
My PC is running windows 8.1 ( i3 intel processor,
4GB RAM ).
I have got on this machine two RAID 1 mirrored volumes,
one for Operating System (boot volume) and a second one for data.
Mirroring is software controlled and it has been made using native win8 disk management tools.
Both mirrored volumes resync quite every time computer is starting.
Even if I have just finished to resync mirrors and resynching
completed well (100 %), next time I boot my PC resynch starts again, often but not always on both couples of disks.
Resynching lasts several hours and it is not possible to have it running every day on a home PC, which is used for not more than one-two hours a day.
My PC is very slow and also I often see a black screen for several seconds at boot and at every change of account.
Is it normal to have Resynching running quite every day on windows 8 system ?
May it be Resynching the reason for black screen I often experiment at boot?
Thanks for your help

Hi Andy, All
As soon as I
completed a new
resynching, I tried to shutdown (by software) and restart the machine a couple of minutes later,
without switching off the power supply. The result was that both mirrors were resynching another time.
Even if I was precise to wait for complete shutdown to restart the PC, I have found in the event log the following
error:
Origine:       Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power
Category: (63)
Level:       Critical
Description:
Riavvio del sistema senza un regolare arresto. Questo errore può essere causato da un'interruzione, un arresto anomalo o un'interruzione dell'alimentazione imprevista del
sistema.
(Translation:
Reboot without regular stop. This error may be caused by anomalous power interruption …)
I have found tens of events like this in the last monthes.
I have also found the following error in the eventlog:
Origin:       Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Boot
Category: None
Level:       Error
Description:
Avvio rapido di Windows non riuscito con stato di errore 0xC00000D4
(Fast boot not successful with error 0xC00000D4 ).
This error also occurred multiple times.
Thanks again for your help

My Windows 2012 ISCSI Target service needs to be restarted every time the server starts.

Every time I restart my Windows 2012 server, the ISCSI Target Service is unavailable to the clients even though it appears to be running.
I have to restart the service, then the clients can connect to it.
I tried to change the startup Type to Delayed, but I get an error 87: parameter is incorrect.
I've tried to delete and recreate the VHD and ISCSI Target.
I've tried to uninstall the Role, and reinstall it.
Anybody have any additional ideas to try and troubleshoot this?
Thank you
James Roper

The service is not starting correctly, even though it does start. If I restart the service, everything works correctly. Here is the event in the ISCSI Target.

HT1414 why does my iPhone 5s shut down unpredictably and needs to be reset every time to start back up?

why does my iPhone 5s shut down unpredictably and needs to be reset every time to start back up?

Hi Cyprus11,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is shutting down unexpectedly, I recommend going through these troubleshooting steps:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Best,
Jeremy

My tabs will not restore after starting Firefox -- even with the option to restore my tabs and windows is checked in the "options" window. I'm losing tabs from previous sessions that I need to keep open every time I need to restart. Thanks for any advice!

Is there something else I need to tweak to get rid of this annoyance instead of simply clicking the check box? I'm losing tabs from previous sessions that I need to keep open every time I need to restart. Thanks for any advice!

Make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the <i>Browsing History</i> when you close Firefox.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Open Keychain Access located in /Applications/Utilities
Select Passwords on the left.
Use the search field top right corner of that window to find the MLB keychain. Now right or control click that keychain then click Delete.
Now in Safari go to the Safari menu bar top of your screen, click Safari > Preferences then select the Autofill tab.
Make sure User names and passwords is selected.
Navigate to the MLB site (forums), login with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain. Click Yes.
Sometimes keychains can become corrupted and need replacing. The next time you revisit that site you should not have to enter the password.

How to perform some action every time when AppServer starts/stops

I need to start/stop some external processes every time when AppServer starts/stops. Is there standart mechanism or API to do this?

Most of the app servers support a concept of startup and shut down classes (I use this feature in Web logic 6.1)
The startup classes are executed every time you start the app server and the shutdown classes are executed everytime the app server is brought down.
Here is a URL that will give u all the details you need to know for weblogic startup classes
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61///////ConsoleHelp/startupclass.html
This is the URL for shut down classes for web logic

hope this helps.

Why do system preferences revert back to default every time computer is restarted

Cannot keep changes to System preferences. All revert back to default every time computer is restarted.
Also, all extensions, e.g. adblock, reinstall every time computer is restarted.
<Personal information edited by Host>

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book. Cannot turn these off. They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used. How to diagnose this

Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book. Cannot turn these off. They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used. How to diagnose this?

First, uninstall "SuperTV" (whatever that is) according to the developer's instructions. It isn't working and it's filling the log with noise.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Every time my Mac starts i see a Data.xml file in recycle bin

every time my Mac starts i see a Data.xml file in recycle bin is that sort of malware ?

I keep getting this message every time that i start my computer, but i can still connect to the Internet, and do whatever i could do with a working router and modem.
The server 192-----etc. at WRT54GS requires a user-name and password.
Warning: This server is requesting that your user-name and password be sent in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection).
Then it asks for a user-name and password. What password!?!!!?!? WHAT USERNAME!??!??!?.......if anyone can help i would appreciate it.

the router password is admin by default. Leave the username blank. But for this issue you may check the security setting of your internet options. Disable it from there.

What is "launchproxyls"? It runs every time when I start the system.

I am using 10.6.6， Recently I noticed the computer running even I did not using any program. Then I found the process "launchproxyls", when I close this process, computer return quiet again. But every time when I start the system, it runs, and I have to close it manually.
Could anybody please help me?

Thank you for the response.
I found it was SPSS using inetd.
So I made two changes, but it the launchproxyls does still run the same:
First I uninstalled the SPSS, but no effects.
Then I reinstalled the OS(10.5), the launchproxyls did not appear. But after I update to 10.6.6, it appeared again, I still have to terminate it manually.
Is there any relation between 1.6.6 and launchproxyls?

My iMac needs to be rebooted every time I put it to sleep

My iMac needs to be rebooted almost every time when I wake it from sleeping. Is this normal? Ether the screen darkens and it will tell me to reboot by holding down the power button or the screen is just totally blank. It's been doing it for a long time and I thought it was just mac security updates running in the backgrownd or something but it seems to be getting worse.
Thanks

Do this:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

Firefox is not working after restart. Need to reinstall every time I am starting PC.

Hello everyone,
I was happily using Firefox untill few days ago. Since then Firefox takes about five minutes to start (you cant see in taskbar or Application in task manager, just in Processes in task manager). When it finaly opens the first window it is not responding and there just blank window). It does the same in safe mode.
I tried to reinstall it several time, with deleting every Firefox related files on computer (following every relevant instruction from Support). I tried to backup my profile and start with new one after reinstall. Every time with same result: Firefox works perfectly after reinstall (even when I transfer files from old profile, every bookmark is right), but when I restart computer the problem is back.
I checked PC for malware and viruses by Avast, there should be now collision with other software since I did not install anything recently. I have cleaned registres, cache and cookies with CCleaner.
I am running 64-bit Windows 7 Lenovo E430, everything worked perfectly for half a year. Only problem I can relate to is a warning message about low free space on system drive, which occured at the same time problems with Firefox started (but it is now even true, I have 5 GB of free space on system drive).
I found other unresolved topics, one of them with same system configuration as mine.

Any suggestions before I desperately change to Firefox Portable?

Why not install and try Firefox portable, it may well be a good troubleshooting step. Try running it from an external memory stick.
The threads you referred to
* [/questions/956861] was closed but never solved
*[/questions/958824] similar
Some system information would help
*How much RAM is installed ?
*What is the total size of the Hard Disk Drive ?
*What is the current amount of free-space in GB ? and as a percentage ?
I try not to use Windows but certainly at one stage a rule of thumb was 20-25% free space should be available. Under about 12% defragging of a disk would likely fail. A page file would need to be larger than the amount of RAM maybe 1.5X , and a hibernate file would be the size of the RAM.
* Do not Hibernate if you are low on HDD space.
I suggest you proceed as follows
#Answer the above questions. I worry you have a lack of diskspace.
#Do a full scan with multiple and up-to-date anti-malware tools. Do not rely on Avast alone. No tool picks up everything. Report back what you scanned with and what was found.
#Backup and keep whatever profiles may be good or may contain recent information such as passwords and bookmarks, but do not use them yet.
#Download a new installer then Do a clean reinstall of Firefox, ensuring that the program folders are deleted before you re-install.
#Now restart, you expect the first restart to work. Close down and try again does it now work OK ?
The detailed instructions in the thread you read [/questions/958824#answer-436552] should help you.
If you have continuing problems is this after a restart of Firefox, or a restart of the Windows Operating System ?
