Wierd behavior on Set Up Assistant the last time I installed OSX...

Good Evening,
One week ago, I installed OSX (10.6.3) on my MacBook Pro. Installation went normally. Following the intro OSX Welcome video (the one with the word welcome in different languages), as expected, the first dialog screen of the set up assistant comes on (the one that ask on which country you have), as you may remember at the same time that screen appears, the Snow Leopard "Aurora" background appears in a fade in effect. Here's where my question comes, the last time I installed OSX, the "Aurora" background started appearing with the fade in effect transition but it was not smooth. In other words, the background appeared in a "cut" fashion but then continued it's smooth transition.
Should I be worried?, as far as I am using my MacBook Pro it has been working ok.
Thank You...

Does this means that I should not worry about it and that my computer is ok?

  • HT4910 my iPhone is not backing up to iCloud. On iTunes on the computer, i have set it to back-up to iCloud and after each connection to the computer it shows the last time it was backed up, but on the phone itself it shows it hasn't been backed up for we

    My iphone is not backing up to icloud even though on itunes i have set it to back up to icloud. whenever i do a cable connection between my iphone and mac at the end of the exercise it indicates the last time the iphone was backed up i.e. "last back: 9.08a.m. but on the iphone itself it says it hasn't been backed up since March and on icloud there hasn't been any back up because the latest additions to the iphone are not there.
    Periodically i get this message "This iphone has not been backed up ... weeks" I have followed through with all the steps and still no joy. I did however notice that my icloud email account on the iphone is different to the one i have on the computer. It would apear that I am using the two interchanagably but i have been trying to correct this so that i"ll use the same one right through.
    Might this be the problem and how can i resolve it? Pls help

    If this is your first time backing up your phone then yeah it might take several hours. It's definitely something you want to do before you head to bed. So try that but also make sure that your contents that are to be backed up are less than 5GB since iCloud only has 5GB of space. Usually photos are what would take up the most space so check how many photos in terms of GB you have by going into settings->general->usage then look at photos and camera.
    Hope this works!

    A number of months ago I relocated by Itunes folder to a NAS drive. It appears when I did the last I tunes update Itunes set the destination path of the Itunes media to the default location, the result was Itunes couldn't install music,apps, video until I set the correct destination path.
    The bit that confused me was it was transferring some media. This was of course the media I had downloaded since the last Itunes update which had gone to the default location.
    I hope that makes sense and is off some help.

  • How do I "save tabs and quit" in this new version of Firefox, as I did in the older version? I want to be able to see the same websites open from the last time I closed the computer.

    In an earlier version of Firefox, when I went to close it, I would get a prompt "save tabs and quit?" that allowed me to see the same websites open from the last time I closed the computer. Where is that feature on the new version of Firefox?

    Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows or otherwise have problems with restoring tabs.<br />
    You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
    Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Terrible hd on demand...the last time

    i just ordered hot tub time machine which was hilarious, unfortunately the hd sucked.  there was at least ONE point every 5 minutes that there was some pixelation or skippage of some sort.  i love the idea of watching hd movies on demand but this will be the last time.  i'd rather give my money to more business savvy services like red box instead of being disappointed again by verizon.  if it wasnt for the 25mb down and 15mb up there would be no reason to have the tv service.  why don't i call and ask for a refund you ask...because its a waste of my time to try and figure out which 3rd tier automated service to select then maybe a person can actually help me then wait on hold and then finally figure out that i dont have verizon phone number....god help you if you dont!
    i can't wait until all tv is internet based and tv service is a mere commodity and conduit for the entertainment that people can choose what they want.
    also note that when i add message tags: on demand, hd poor quality, pixelation, on demand, skip ....it makes me remove it because its not permitted.
    Quote: "The message tags contain on, which is not permitted in this community. Please remove this content before sending your post."

    I tried these steps and the problem resolved itself. Thanks to user Hubrisnxs !!
    reset the router.  use the on/off switch in the back.  turn it off for about 30 seconds, and then turn it back on.  wait for the internet light to come back, and then go to the on demand and try it again.
    -- This in itself did not work... but when I took the next step -- success..
    if it still pixelates, then hit the STB auto correct.   you do that on the TV/Fios menu.  so you hit menu / customer support / in home agent / stb auto correct (set top box)
    -- Total clarity now. !!!
    if it still doesn't work properly, then you might have a cabling issue.  if you're comfortable working with tv cables, then all you're doing is unhooking the router coax, and rehooking it back in nice and secure (do it at both the router and the wall/splitter) and doing the same thing at the STB that is having problems,   unhook the coax from the back of the STB (cable box) and rehook it back and do the same at the wall/splitter for that box.
    otherwise give a call to Verizon  800 - VERIZON or open a chat support.     Tell them the steps you did

    There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
    Delete ALL your email accounts.
    Restart Playbook
    Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON.  Manual (push off) will burn battery.
    Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required. 
    Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi. 
    Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

  • How to get the last time a record was modified or created ?

    Is there a way (hidden system fields for example, system view, other ?) to get the last time a record of a table was modified or the date it was created.

    I know I could do this with a trigger, but I was wondering if there is a data dictionary view I can query to find the date/time a table was last updated.
