Why do I get this annoying windows every now and then?

A window pops up and goes away quick. I went to Console and looked at a log when the window came on and off I quickly went there and the las thing was the massage below. what is it about? its a new Mac book pro retina. 
*** WARNING: Method userSpaceScaleFactor in class NSWindow is deprecated on 10.7 and later. It should not be used in new applications. Use convertRectToBacking: instead

I ended up resetting everything, it turns out that my Thunderbolt connections were not even working when I plugged in the ethernet adapter and I wasn't able to reinstall Mountain Lion so I used wifi and it worked. It took about 7 hours but it got rid of all issues.

  • One of my MSI GTX 780-fans gets stuck on 100% every now and then :(

    Every now and then (randomly and not very often) one of the fans on my MSI GTX 780 gets stuck on 100% after windows 7 (64 bit) have loaded.
    It is impossible to get it to slow down by using any software or by restarting the computer (or even by turning it off).
    The Only way to get it back to normal functioning is to open the computer and stop the fan with my hands for a while. After that it works like it should, until next time this bug happens.
    Has anyone experienced anything like it?  Can it be solved or is the card broken?

    flobelix will give you the program needed (a link to it at least) and the information of how to so it!
    but he needs 2 things from you!
    1: the serial number of your MSI GTX 780 (leave off the last 3 digits)
    2: a copy of your cards current VBIOS (download this http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/SysInfo/GPU-Z/ and run it and it will bring up GPU-Z and then click on the little icon at the end of BIOS Version and choose save to file (should be a under 1MB file) then upload it to somewhere like dropbox.com and give us a link to it there)

    I have not had any issue with Itunes on my PC until very recently. Every now and then my Itunes library appears on my screen?  I have not clicked the itunes icon beforehand nor plugged in my Ipod Touch?  Why does this happen please as it is driving me crazy!.

    What's the precise text of the message, please? (There's a couple of different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

  • Every now and then I get about a half second clip of another song

    Every now and then I get about a half second clip of another song at the end of a song. If you immediately go back and play the same again, you get the same little burp at the end. But if you play three or four songs and then go back, the little burp is not there. I did a restore on the ipod, and I am still getting the little burps. It only happens maybe once out of every 10 songs played.
    Files are MP3's which play fine on the PC in WMP and itunes, and on Dell DJ15, Zune and Sansa MP3 players. Some of the MP3s were ripped from CD using MusicMatch, some recorded off old lps using Creative Go!, and some downloaded so I don't think it is an issue with the MP3s themselves. Since I use several different players, I don't want to maintain a separate AAC library just for the ipod.
    Usually the burst is so short that you can't even tell who the artist was, but when I have recognized it was always something very close alphabetically - at the end of a Cream song I got a little Creed, at the end of a Bad Company song I got a little Bachman-Turner Overdrive, at the end of a Led Zeppelin track I got a little Linkin Park.

    Does this help?

  • Can't figure out why webcam video freezes (pauses) every now and then

    I have created a small application to grab the video stream from a webcam that seems to work very well. But, every now and then the video pauses for no apparent reason. Any ideas why it might be doing this? I am using an undecorated JFrame for the app and there is an option in the program to dynamically change the window opacity using AWTUtilities.setWindowOpacity().

    In that case, that's different. I thought you were complaining because it'd freeze for a moment or two and then keep going ;-)
    Ummmmm, I'd guess that maaaaybe changing the opacity is affecting the validate() status of the pane? Like the following post:

    How are you displaying the video? Just using a player, or what?

  • I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini.  Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead."  The mouse still works but can't type.  If I restart, everything is fine again.  Is there anything that will fix this problem?

    I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini.  Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead."  The mouse still works but I can't type.  If I restart, everything is fine again.  Is there anything that will fix this problem?
    Also, I am trying to connect my Mini from the mini-Displayport to the Displayport of my Dell U2410 monitor.  The image is very grainy,even though it is set to the correct resolution: 1920 X 1200 at 60Hz.  If I use HDMI to VGA input, the image is much clearer.  Is there a way to get the Displayport to work?

    I'm having exactly the same keyboard issue.  Certainly nothing has ever enhanced my concentration while coding like suddenly becoming unable to type.
    I'm seeing a great many devicemgr and rake errors in my system log.  I don't know if they're related.  How 'bout you?
    If you're unfamiliar with the system log…
    Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    If necessary, choose View > Show Log List.
    system.log is at the top of the FILES section.
    Try searching it for hot words like DEBUG, FATAL, and aborted.
    I've found some discussions that would tend to indicate my errors are postGres related – I'm running OS X server.

  • Every now and then (every 15 minutes-half an hour or so), my internet fails. It says in the Diagnostics that the internet and server have failed. Happens on my sister's mac as well. Is this our modem?

    Every now and then (every 15 minutes-half an hour or so), my internet fails. It says in the Diagnostics that the internet and server have failed. Happens on my sister's mac as well. Is this our modem? Our PCs don't do this so it has something to do with the macs.

    Hi Patrick,
    I'm starting to think it's either an AirPort card issue or something to do with the Mac OS. I have stopped using wireless as much as possible in my home (have wired up several new Ethernet outlets), and it sure is nice having Internet run at the speed it's supposed to all the time, and with no drops. Might be something to consider.
    In the meantime:
    Open System Preferences > Network > select AirPort > click on Advanced > TCP/IP > Configure IPv6 > Off > OK > Apply > Turn AirPort Off > Turn AirPort On
    Open System Preferences > Network > select Ethernet > click on Advanced > TCP/IP > Configure IPv6 > Off > OK > Apply
    (FOR LION: If you can’t see an option to turn ipv6 off, set it to link-local only.)

  • Ftp get results in zero bytes payload and no exception every now and then

    hi *,
    i just wanted to ask if some of you have also seen the problem that every now and then a file retrieved by retrieveFile via batchftp otd results in zero bytes instead of its original file size without any exceptions. it happens every 2-3 weeks and we nowadays circumventing it by checking the size of the file listing against the size in bytes retrieved. ftp server says xyz bytes successfully sent to client in this case.
    anyone seen similar?
    regards chris

    hi alexander,
    i did what i can ....
    ftp server in every case always said
    sent XXXX bytes instead of saying zero. and i trust the ftp server a little more than our batch ftp adapter.
    would you consider this as ruling out?
    regards chris

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

  • Every now and then it won't allow me to type.

    The browser works fine its just every now and then it gets to were i can not type or copy and paste. Its like its frozen and it make this sound. the only way to solve it is to shut down the tab and start all over again. its really bad then i type something long and it freezes

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Mail quits by itself every now and then

    Apple Mail seems to quit by itself every now and then without crashing. Sometimes even during composing or reading an email. It seems to be highly unstable and when it quits, it leaves no trace of logs in the crashreporter. This is very annoying and frustrating, as I need to re-compose any possible email that I might be working on. Has anyone experience this and can someone please help?
    I have my mail link to a corporate email server as well as a corporate ldap. I have also installed a 3rd party stationery and have multiple smart mailboxes setup but these have never given me the same issues as I do when I was using Mail on Leopard. My mail version is 4.2 (1077) and using SL (10.6.2).
    Can someone please let me know how to resolve this?

    Try this - find the /Library/Preferences folder in your user/Home folder and then locate and this file and temporarily move it to the desktop:
    com.apple.mail.plist
    *Caution* - doing this may clear your account settings so be sure to note those first in the event you are required to reconfigure, etc.
    If this fixes the issue, you can delete the original plist---if not and you want to short-cut making any needed settings as before, delete the fresh plist and move the original back to where it was.

  • ITunes deletes his own library every now and then .....

    It happened already a couple times that iTunes has no songs in the list. iTunes is when i start it just like new. not one song or playlist in the database.
    The strange thing is, that all songs can be found in the iTunes Music folder.
    I can add them all by clicken on "Add Folder to Library..." He creates the whole Library again with all my sings. But then every now and then, it is just all gone again. Very strange.....

  • Freezing and then blue screen every now and then

    I have just bought a iMac G5 with iSight and every now and then the machine will freeze for 2-10 seconds, then go to a blue screen. Audio is only affected when it freezes and all background tasks seem to run without issue. The blue screen can stay up for about anywhere between 3 to 40 seconds.
    Anyone seen this or have any idea?

    HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Good time to check the startup disk for errors.
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% free disk space.*
    If you cannot boot from your install disk, try booting in Safe Mode
    What is Safe Mode

    PS My iBookG4 has been a workhorse. I'll cry the day it decides to retire.....
