Why crash on exit in Win 2000 then won't restart?

since about V5 Firefox crashes on exit about 40% of the time. The crash message says a dump could not be created. After such a crash about 25% of the time it won't restart unless I reload Firefox. With V7 after a crash if it won't restart a reload won't fix it.

Hi..
Unless you purchased AppleCare to extend the one year limited warranty, then your warranty has run out.
The whirrs and clicks of the startup are not loud or repetitive, but are present intermittently.
See if anything looks familiar here > Failing hard drive sounds - Datacent.com - Datacent
Difficult to say what any needed repair charges would be.
If you are near an Apple Store you can make an appointment in advance at the Genius Bar
It's impossible to say whether or not the drive is salvageable. I hope you had all your important files backed up.

IMac (3.4gHz Intel Core i7) shuts down when sleeps, then won't restart

Just bought a brand new 27" iMac (3.4gHz Intel Core i7) which shuts down when sleeps, then won't restart (ie completely dead).
In order to restart, I have to unplug the power cord from the computer, hold power key down for 10secs, replug in and it then starts up. I returned to the store and they spent a couple days letting it go to sleep etc and overnight and for them it was fine. Woke up no problems. They returned it to me yesterday.
So I set it all up again, left it overnight and this morning it was dead again. So now it leaves me to wonder if it's something I have plugged into it.
I have a new Seagate 3TB external hard drive hooked up using USB3.0. This is plugged directly into the back of the computer.
I also have a powered USB hub plugged into the computer which has regular USB stuff such as printer, graphics tablet and another external hard drive (this one is older LaCie 500gb, and have put it into a new USB 3.0 case as well for the arrival of the new iMac (this had an old firewire hard drive case). However this hard drive is switched off at the case and is not being used.
I believe it could possibly be the Seagate 3TB disk causing this problem, but it works fine during the day while I am using the computer, it's just when I either leave it at lunch time to go to a meeting or walk etc or overnight that I come back and it has shut down....leaving me to believe that it's due to the computer going to sleep.
Has anyone else had a similar problem with a Seagate drive? Today I'm conducting an experiment and heading off for lunch with both hard drives unhooked. If I come back and the computer wakes up from a click of the mouse or keyboard as it should, I will plug in one hard drive at a time and re-test. I will leave the Seagate for last, as I don't think it is the old LaCie disk (which is off).
For reference sake, I also have a NAS running off my network through Airport Extreme etc and have my old iMac hooked up to the network too, but don't believe this is the problem.
Initially I did put in some after market RAM (another 8GB) and though that might be the problem, but I removed and it still reacted the same way (plus store I bought it from again booted up fine and woke up fine at their shop after I had taken RAM out too).
Will keep this post updated with my next test (letting computer sleep without either hard drive in), but keen to hear if anyone has had any similar experiences with Seagate disks/cases and the new iMacs.
Cheers,
Kristin

Hey kristinandmike,
I had a similar problem shortly after I bought my 27" iMac. Here is an excerpt from my discussion:
"As BDAqua suggested, I started the process of elimination by shutting down the externals and just leaving up one of the USB drives and using the computer until time to shut it off. After eliminating 2 of the 3 drives I figured it had to be the last one. That drive is a Seagate GoFlex Desk version that allows different bases with differing connectivity. I had previously used FW800 to connect but had switched to USB3 on the new computer. I went ahead and got a Thunderbolt to FW adaptor cable and switched this drive back to Firewire rather than USB3. So far so good."
For some reason the Seagate I was using didn't agree with the USB3 on the Mac.

IMac screen turns white, then won't restart

24" iMac running 10.6.8
Just installed MacKeeper software and did a "Fast Cleanup". It says my system is running "excellent". Then, one day later, I am on the internet and the screen goes white. Pulled the plug as that was the only way I could get it to shut down, restarted, screen is now 50% white (frosted) but I can see the type. As I am talking to MacKeeper on the phone, it goes completely white again. Third time try to restart and button won't even turn it on. Fourth time restart (as above) and have the 50% white screen again. Long enough this time to figure out my Apple ID and password and type in this question.
Do you think this is software related (MacKeeper)? Or is this my first Mac to ever have a real problem.

Didn't get a response here, so I read some other similar posts. I've tried everything: rebooting to safe mode, uninstalling MacKeeper, and running disk utility (which said it could find no problems).
Any other suggestions out there folks?

Shuts down and then won't restart

I have a macair A1466. My kid spilled some juice on it. I thought it was ruined however I decided to try and turn it on a couple of weeks later. And to my surprise it powered up. I soon realized that it had issues. To start with I needed it plugged in as the battery was pooched. So I replaced battery and it powered up and worked great for about 15 minutes and then blacked out and wont turn on. Now if I leave it for a day or two it works again but for about 15 minutes and same problem blackout.
So I have seen some people mention the heat sync paste could be bad so I guess I will try that before replacing the logic board. Just seems strange that the board would be fried if it works fine for the 15 minutes.
Any ideas or solutions would be great.
Thanks

I have been using with no probs its just when I restart or shutdown it wont restart until I disconnect battery with no maglock and then reconnect battery then I connect mag lock and it turns on.
I seem to be fine as long as I dont restart or shutdown.
Kinda ***** for updating though:(
Works with no probs on battery or mag when it is running.

Crash when genarating forms on Win 2000

When we generate some complex moduls with forms
generator on Win 2000, the generator posts the messages
of internal error which occurs in some function inside generator.
Sometimes the designer is also close by OS because of
illegal operation.
On Win NT 4.0 the generation produce nice form.
We use Designer 6i rel. 2. Is there maybe some patch on rel 2 for Win 2000 ?
We can't migrate to release 4 now.

Hi,
Can you please give some more details as to what all things you have in a module which is giving error??

8iLite on WIN/2000 -- navigator crash.

Hi there,
I installed Oracle 8iLite in a WIN/2000 laptop
and tried to create a snapshot of a table hosted on our 8.1.7EE server running under Linux. I previously created a master group on the server containing the questionable table.
Dragging and Dropping the table under the 8iLite Navigator from the server connection to the snapshot ssection of the 8i Database sresult in a rash of the navigator. Besides a
dialog is shown telling me some errors, maybe from the server:
REPAPI-26522: plsql r|c refresh context get failed
REPAPI-26522: rpc execution failed

PLS-00201: declarator 'SYS.DBMS_SNAP_REPAPI' must be declared

The last four lines are repeated...
Any help appreciated....

Related to creating pdf file through form6i in Win 2000

I have created a form which will generate pdf file by calling a report. I am able to generate pdf files in platforms like Win 2000,Win NT,Win 98. But expect in Win 2000, I am able to read the pdf file in acrobat.
The error displayed while opening pdf in acrobat is: There was a error processing this page,There was a problem to read this page (122).
Form6i and Reports6i is installed in Win 2000 and acrobat reader version is 5.0
Please answer my question immediately

Sorry Im totally new to acrobat so this may seem like a daft question> I have scanned a document through a document feed scanner into a pdf format but some of the pages are orientated the wrong way within the pdf, is there a way to change the direction of pages and then save the whole pdf again so that everything is the right way round. I know that you can change the orintation while reading the pdf but as this is being put into web ct for students I would prefer for them not to have to do this.

Ipod nano possible with win 2000???

my wife just got an ipod nano \(3rr gen) for her bday, and we have a computer with win 2000. now the only itunes we can find for win 2000 is ver. 7.3. when i downloaded this it tells me that i need ver. 7.4 or better. anyone got any info or tips for me... PLEASE

NO. That is NOT what the website says. When you go to the 732 for Windows 2000 d/l page, it clearly states you can use Win2k. The website says "iTunes is the best way to enjoy your digital music and video with your PC, iPod and Apple TV. iTunes 7.3.2 for Windows 2000 is designed to work with Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or later. To use iTunes with Windows XP or Windows Vista, visit http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ to download the latest version. Use iTunes to import CDs or download songs and videos from the iTunes Store. Make playlists perfect for any occasion. Burn playlists to CDs and play them on your home stereo. Sync your media with iPod to enjoy it on the go, or play your collection on your TV with Apple TV."
Why have so many missed this??? Apple is clearly stating they support Win2k - including sync to ipod. I so got one. I d/l the iTunes 732 for Win2k and it works fine - to play music (using it right now). But once I connect my new nano, I get the error message "The iPod 'IPOD' cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 7.4 or later. Go to www.blah blah to d/l v7.4..." So.... what now??? I'm stumped. And never-mind the "win2k is old and nobody supports it..." stuff... Microsoft still offers SP4 for d/l.
Why would Apple put a utility in a backward compat. program that is not backward compatible?????
In addition (and this may be over my head), but why does the website show the file @ 47.7MB, put once on my hd it shows 37.9MB?? I've d/l the file twice to be sure but have the same result.
Please forgive me - I am not shooting the messenger, I'm terribly confused. I am clearly missing something. Would someone PLEASE set me straight??? I'm a big boy - I can take it.

IWS Install Failed on Win 2000

Hello - we are still trying to recover our install of iWS on Win 2000. The
uninstall.exe hangs. Attemtps to reinstall hang. When we try to start the
iWS services in service manager they also hang.
We are installing from the Forte for Java partnership CD. This is iWS 6.0
Enterprise.
Please advise of the sequence of steps to erase all trace of the previous
installs (file directories, registry entries and anything else related) so
that we may reinstall iWS with a clean slate.
David Murphy

Hi,
Please ensure the following before you install.
- Have a fully qualified domainname which is mandatory. But for testing
purpose you can have DHCP running usually not recomended for production
environment.
- Installation platform for iWS 6.0 is Windows 2000 Server or Advanced
server recomended.
- If uninstallation hangs remove the entries from the services and remove
the associated folders and then go for reninstalling iWS 6.0
- If the problem still persists, the only way to get rid is to clean the
registry of Windows and make a reinstallation.
Regards
Raj

Taskkill /F broken in windows 8 when applied to a process that crashes on exiting

It appears that Windows 8 has broken the taskkill command in part at least (actually, I think it is more likely a broken ability to set the debug attribute, which in prior Windows versions allowed taskkill to kill programs even if in a different security
context; but I don't know exactly how to test that or prove my hypothesis). When attempting to kill a process that is hung on exit (e.g., attempted a normal exit from the program, but it hangs and fails to exit, and continues to consume system resources),
there appears to be no way to terminate the application/service, and an "access denied" error is generated even though run from the administrator command prompt.
I have had this happen now many times with chrome.exe (which seems to have lots of issues with Windows 8 in general, but especially when exiting), as well as Skype.exe (a perpetual problem child program under any system). It is repeatable if you can
get any program to crash/hang on exit:
(1) start a bunch of chrome.exe windows, especially ones that require resources like scripts, and then attempt to exit chrome window by window - this will cause chrome to crash on exit 5/10 times. Confirm hung process via ctr-shift-esc and see
that at least one chrome task is still running (chrome window may or may not still be visible)
(2) From the administrator command line: "taskkill /IM chrome /F" which will give the access denied error.
(3) psutils is also unsuccessful: pskill chrome /F also gives same error (run from administrator command prompt)
As I understand prior Windows releases, there is a debug attribute that was set by these particular utilities (under Windows 7 and earlier) which allowed taskkill and pskill to kill processes even when the task manager failed to do so. It seems
that something is broken under Windows 8 now in that regard.
Any ideas how to fix? is there a registry fix? Another utility that works under Windows 8?
JeffN

Hi,
I tried the command in Windows 8, it works with no problem. I can even kill explorer.

The problem is with killing certain "runaway" processes. I can kill chrome just fine ... until it crashes! Once it crashes, it is unkillable. Something is not right.

Flash-9 Beta and Win 2000

Hi
Flash-9 beta version is for Win-XP and above.
Is there any way to install Flash-9 Beta in Win 2000.
Regards

The Flash 9 BETA? Where/how did you obtain this? If you are
truly a BETA tester then you would be
asking on the BETA listserv - not the public forum. You must
have obtained this BETA illegally and
have now announced it publicly on Adobe's forum - I would not
have done such a thing to be honest -
it is illegal for you to have this copy of the flash tool if
you were not legally supposed to be
testing it.

How to display unicode or save to file on win 2000

I'm not sure if this is a stupid question but I'll try it.
First my system win 2000 ( German ) with installations of additional languages.
jdk 1.5.0
My first code is:
System.out.println('\u0400');Why does I get the ? sign in std. output? This is a cyrillic sign sign and I've installed cyrillic language to my OS.
2nd code:
BufferedWriter br = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(new File("D:\\projects\\test\\unicode.txt")));
br.write("test : " + '\u0449');
br.close();When I edit this file I see: test : ?
Why happend this? I read in oracle documents that win2000 support unicode and also the size from this file is not like expect. It has 8 bytes but if this is really stored in unicode it need 9 bytes because the last sign need 2 bytes.
Every tip is welcome
regards Dietmar

The character may be cyrillic, but the platform's default character encoding (windows-1252 in your case) doesn't support this character, so it's converted to a question mark. You have to explicitly state the character encoding, e.g. "UTF-8" if you want to use Unicode.

Il suffit de mettre les BTD/BTX sur un drive réseau (net use X:
\\server\share_point),
puis d'installer des icônes pour les clients: ftexec -fi bt:x:\MyApp.
Pour que les noeuds ne s'auto-enregistrent pas, peut-être mettre un password
Ou bien définir les noeuds comme un 'groupe' et donc seul le groupe est
connu.
Si mettre le mot de passe suffit pas, et si vraiment le model node gêne,
alors il
faut un autre environment manager.
I think that to avoid install, the software could be located on a shared
drive,
and users linking to it through running 'ftexec' or directly the compiled
binaries.
For nodes not to appear in the environment as nodes, they could be defined
as members
of a model node '(which then would be in the environmnet)'
Putting a password in the environment could prevent nodes to be registered
there, but
might prevent the apps from being executed.

Firefox crashes when exiting on i7-920, OSX-10.7.2 Lion Fully updated

This happened before.. i used app zapper to remove FF8, then reinstalled FF 7.01.. no issues with 7.01. Verified Addons with Addon checker (everything up to date)
Used update channel to install FF8 ... Still Crashing when exiting Yahoo Mail and Yahoo Games.
Hardware info... i7-920, 6GB Ram, 1TB HD, Nvidia Graphics. OSX-10.7.2 Lion Fully updated
BTW Appzapper removed everything including profile... ITS NOT PROFILE RELATED.
Still Happens in Safe Mode... Going Back to 7.01 after AppZapping 8.0 .
Must be Related to some change in LION because FF8 works fine on Snow 10.6.8. Perhaps Permissions need to be modified in the Script for FF8, Perhaps Plugin related. Not Sure, but 7.01 Works without Crashing.

On Mac systems with Java version "1.6.0_29" (Java SE 6 Update 29), Firefox 8 will crash after running a Java applet when closing the tab or hitting the back button. This is a new crash that only occurs in Firefox 8 (or above) and is being investigated ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700835 bug 700835]).
Ref: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes#Plugins - Java (Mac OS X)

Why crash on exit in Win 2000 then won't restart?
