X problem post Leopard

Since installing Leopard and whilst working with the power cord plugged in, I accidentally pulled out the cord and it refused to switch to battery. It now cant start up or run on battery - displaying the X.
Anyone had this problem and is it a matter of getting Genius to replace the battery? or is there a setting that prevents it from running off battery?
Also my Macbook 2.0 is staring up a lot slower since leopard. Is this normal?

ITunes CD import problems, post-Leopard upgrade

There are a fair number of reports in the iTunes for Mac forums concerning CD's initially being recognized by iTunes to import, but then immediately being unmounted. Please refer to the following link. I tried one fix that was suggested to me which didn't work & it now has been suggested to do an archive/install. Does anyone else have any other ideas?

Closing out question, following other thread, but problem isn't resolved.

Anyone else having a Problem with Leopard and Photoshop CS3?

I'm using CS3 with Leopard 10.5.4 at work and there are some very aggravating anomalies, that I'd like to nail down to a cause. Most frequently, when switching from apps to P'Shop, the menu bar stays for the previous app, i.e. when going from Finder to P'shop, the menu bar still says Finder and has Finder options. Changing from Lightwave to P'Shop, the menu bar remains Lightwave.
Occasionally, an Adobe app - P'Shop or InDesign - will simply disappear and not come back. The icon in the dock shows it as active, but no amount of clicking, Command-Tabbing will reveal the app and I have to Force Quit, losing unsaved changes.
I have a feeling it's Leopard, since, I've used CS3 on Tiger and CS4 on Tiger and never had a problem.
I'm wondering if upgrading to the latest Leopard would make much of a difference.
Has anyone come across this and found any kind of answers?
Thanks for any suggestions.

> Just because it doesn't happen to Phil (who may not use all of the same features of the Suite that others do anyway) does NOT mean that these problems are not real and are not mere PEBCAK.
Right. If someone is having a problem associated with Tiger, it's PEBAK. If Leopard is involved, it's automatically because of Leopard. Apparently, with Apple's latest OS, trouble shooting problems are no longer necessary - just blame it on Leopard and call it a day.
b FUD
I find the dynamics here really interesting. This thread would have been very different if Vincent had posted with problems involving Tiger. Would have gone something like this:
After admonishing him for not providing more information about his setup by posting the obnoxious big blue link on how to ask questions (ahem - we know NOTHING about his machine or configuration, such as which machine, how much RAM, scratch disk or attached peripherals), there'd be all kinds of trouble shooting advice given - "try a new user", "repair permissions", "run DiskWarrior, and on and on ...
But no, since he mentions Leopard, none of that is apparently necessary and the completely, utterly
b irresponsible
advice is given ... "that's just the way Leopard is".
Those are some serious problems he's reporting that have nothing to do with Leopard. Something is obviously hosed!
As for discounting my experience because I don't use every app in the suite as extensively as I do Photoshop, I'm FAR more qualified to discuss Leopard and CS issues than Ann or Neil who do not use Leopard at all (and have never used it as far as I know.)
"Others have problems with it", is their battle cry but it's extremely weak. Do I really need to remind you all that these forum are ALWAYS filled with people who have problems, regardless of version or OS? You act as if this forum was a ghost town when Tiger and CS3 were current!
Gee, Ann ... people are STILL reporting problems with 10.5 and CS3? How shocking! Guess what - people are STILL reporting problems with 10.4 and CS3 too! Let me make a prediction - people will have problems with 10.8 and CS9!
Vincent-
> I don't really deal with fonts anyway ...
Yes. You do. Even if you never type a single line of text, every application uses fonts to create menus and other GUI items. If one of those fonts are bad, it can create all kinds of problems, including the very problems you mention.
The fact that you don't seem aware of this and you're still using 10.5.4 leads me to believe you're not familiar with the basic practices of maintaining a healthy system. Again, how did you install Leopard on that machine?
Look, if you're simply trying to justify using CS4, go right ahead. It's a worthwhile upgrade in it's own right. However, if you install it on that machine in it's current state, CS4 will NOT fix your problems because you do NOT have a healthy system.
You asked for experiences with Leopard - I can launch every application in both CS3 and CS4 suites
i simultaneously,
and STILL not have your issues. I haven't experienced anything like your CS3 problems in Leopard - on both a 2006 Mac Pro and a 2008 Macbook.
If you'd like help to try and figure out the real problem, I'm more than happy to help. If not, Adobe will gladly take your money ...

Problem with leopard DVD loading in PowerPC G4

Hi having problems installing Leopard DVD on Mac G4 desk top - 1GHz PowerPC G4 (3,6), 1MB L3 Cache, 768 MB Ram.
A few of the details:
1) I have installed Leopard on my Laptop and it is running fine and it is a family pack edition DVD.
2) I wiped the G4 I am trying to install clean and re-loaded the original system software, then loaded to Tiger to see if that was the issue...When I put in the Leopard DVD it doesn't even show as being in the computer. It doesn't come up on the desk top...it doesn't show in the HD...it doesn't make a sound at all when put in the DVD slot...basically, the computer is not recognizing the DVD. I have tried other cd's and DVD's in the drive....everything is working except the Leopard DVD.
Any ideas?

Possible Fix for Printing Problems in Leopard

I got this information from Mac OS X Leopard Edition book by David Pogue. Here's his possible fix for printing problems in Leopard...Open web browser and enter this address http://127.0.0.1:631. You'll find youself at a secret "front end" for CUPS (Common UNIX Printer System), the underlying printing technology for Mac OS X 10.5. This trick lets your Mac communicate with a huge array of older printers that dopn't yet have Mac OS X drivers. Using this administration screen, you can print a test page, stop your printer in its tracks, manage your networked printers and print jobs, and more–a very slick trick. Haven't tried it yet...anyone who does let me know how it worked!

If you literally "checked" them, meaning the checkboxes, that only affects their visibility. To remove them, select one and then click on the "minus" part of the "plus minus" at lower left.

Digital Camera Connection Problems With Leopard

Hi Everyone,
I'm having a big problem with connecting various digital cameras to my macs. I have 3 different machines (a G5 iMac, 2 MacBook Pros) all running 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 and none of them will recognize my canon Powershot SD800 or my SD1000. I haven't had a chance to test it out with my Digital Rebel yet but I'm suspecting I may run into the same issue.
I've read through all the tech notes in the iLife section and various articles on the web and from what I can tell Apple has a problem with usb device connections in Leopard. I've tried all of the fixes (deleting caches folder, resetting PRAM, updating all applications, etc) and nothing works. The cameras were working fine under 10.4.11. I was really hoping Apple would have fixed this in 10.5.2 but it is still not working. Does anyone have any ideas if Apple is working on this? For photographers like myself this is a major deal. I can get around the issue right now using an external memory card reader, but that's extremely inconvenient at times and I'm just not impressed that something like this has gone months without a fix from Apple.

And I'm not having any problems with Leopard mounting my Canon PowerShot Pro or Rebel though I typically don't connect them, choosing to use a card reader instead. (Saves camera battery.) This is true on the 4 computers I use at home and work as well as my wife's MacBook. Two came with Leopard pre-installed the other 3 I installed Leopard using Archive & install.
We can talk about how you upgraded to Leopard or what you have installed that might be getting in the way, or you can buy an inexpensive card reader and be done with the hassle.

Hey Verizon / HTC / Google Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE.

Hey Verizon / HTC / Google Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE. This is a major Problem.

I have provided some steps below that may help with the Caller Id issue you are experiencing.
Try completing a soft reset on the device. A soft reset would be powering the device off and pulling out the battery. Once the battery is removed, place it back in and power the device back on.
Dial *228 and send. Once dialed, listen for the recording to prompt you for option 1 and select option 1. The phone should complete its programming within a minute.
Ensure you are using the area-code and 7 digit number format (ex. 9999951212)
Try removing the contact and re-adding it.

Mouse interaction problem in Leopard

Hi Folks,
All of a sudden, my mouse has some interaction problem in Leopard. Tried different mice, they all behave the same, so I guess this is an issue with Leopard.
Very weird symptoms:
1- In Sarafi, when I place pointer on a hyperlink, it doesn't change from arrow to hand, but click action still works.
2- In menu bar, the selection doesn't get highlighted when I move the pointer over the menu.
3- For Dock (in auto-hide mode), the Dock doesn't pop up automatically if I move the pointer to the bottom of the screen. I have to click somewhere in the bottom to bring up the Dock, but the icons don't get magnified when I place pointer over them.
Any idea what the problem is and how to fix that?
Thanks for the help, guys.

Fewer problems with Leopard if bought on new iMac rather than upgrade?

I bought a new iMac (my 1st Mac ever) just before Leopard came out, so I have Tiger 10.4.11 now and love it. I've had no problems whatsoever and really don't plan on upgrading to Leopard because of all the problems I keep reading about. My brother is thinking about buying an iMac but hesitates because he's heard so many problems about Leopard. Question for you guys - do the Leopard problems seem more common if you've done an upgrade from Tiger, or are the problems just as common if you buy a new iMac with Leopard installed? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Your choice - BUT remember that Millions of people have upgraded with NO problems - you only read about the very few who do have problems. Leopard is a great OS and IF you upgrade carefully (repair your disk, fix permissions, backup and have a bootable clone in case of problems) you are very unlikely to have problems and it is EASY to go back to your clone in the unlikely case that you do have any problem.

This is a "how long ago did yo stop beating your wife question" - Problems are VERY uncommon in either case. With new systems they are highly unlikely since there is no previous damage to the system and NO incompatible third party software on the system - but problems are extremely uncommon in either case
He should move ahead with his purchase IMHO.

Problems reinstalling Leopard on Macbook

Just recently, I've had some serious problems installing Leopard back onto my Macbook. About 4 days ago, I decided to use boot camp to try Windows XP on my Macbook. It all went smooth as I was trying out Windows XP, but I soon found out that I had some serious problems. Boot camp had written over my version of Leopard. When I held down the option key, all I saw was Windows. Of course I thought this could be easily remedied by using my Install disks 1 and 2 but for some reason, neither disks were recognized when I put them in. At one point disk 1 was recognized but it took about twenty minutes to actually get to the install screen. Once there I tried to erase or wipe the Harddrive as it says to do in the apple instructions. So I went ahead and erased it. This was probably a bad choice seeing as halfway through the first install disk, the installation failed. I had just erased my harddrive and now I cannot even get into Windows! Now I cannot get my Macbook to recognize either disk and both disks are spit out after about 5 times of the disk starting itself back up and trying to recognize it multiple times. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi, and welcome to the forums.
You've either got a bad disc or a bad drive. Both happen on occasion.
Do you have access to another Mac? If so, try the disc in it (of course, don't actually do anything, just see if it's readable).
If the disc is bad, and you're near an Apple store, you might be able to get a Genius to install from a disc of theirs, but either way, you need to get a replacement. Depending on how old your Mac is, there may or may not be a small charge.
If the drive is bad, it's covered for a year. If you've got AppleCare, it's even longer.

Problem posting data with HttpsConnection

Hi,
I am currently having problems posting data using a HttpsConnection.
I am setting the setRequestMethod to HttpConnection.POST and then using the openDataOutputStream method.
I will post my code when I get home for reference.
Background to my problem - I am trying to use the declarative security features of J2EE to authenticate a mobile user.
I am firstly firing a HttpsConnection from the mobile device to a protected resource on the app server. I grab the JSessionId from the Set-Cookie http header of the response and post a second request to the j_security_check and provide the refer http header to the protected resource - this simulates exactly what happens on a browser (I used a Http monitor tool to confirm this). However, I need to pass the j_username and j_password as body of the https request. This doesn't seem to work because the server displays my access denied at this point - as if it hadn't received the crednetials
However, just to confirm my technique works I subsituted the post request for a get request to j_security_check and passed the j_username and j_password as request params in the URL. This worked fine and I got a 302 response 'temporily moved' which I then handle by simply making a further request for the original resource - this time it serves back the resource because I am authenticated.
Anyway that sets the scene - so the problem definitely appears to be posting data using an HttpsConnection.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Rgds,
David

Hi,
Here is my code relating to the above problem:
httpsConn = (HttpsConnection)Connector.open("https://127.0.0.1:8443/ebank/j_security_check");
            httpsConn.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
            httpsConn.setRequestProperty("referer", "https://127.0.0.1:8443/ebank/main/mainMenu.xml");
            httpsConn.setRequestProperty("cookie", cookieValue);
            httpsConn.setRequestProperty("location", url);
            httpsConn.setRequestProperty("User-Agent",
                "Profile/MIDP-1.0, Configuration/CLDC-1.0");
            httpsConn.setRequestProperty("Content-Language",
                "en-gb");
String credentials = "j_username=EB0001&j_password=240589";
            httpsConn.setRequestProperty("Content-Length",""+credentials.length());
            DataOutputStream os = httpsConn.openDataOutputStream();
            os.writeUTF(credentials);
....Thanks,
David

Problem posting photos to Facebook Pages. Help!

Is anyone else having a problem posting photos to Facebook Pages? I have been doing so on a daily basis for a few years now. Yesterday, I was unable to post to a Facebook Page (not personal accounts).
Now, when I attempt to create a Published Collection for Facebook, I no longer have the option to select an existing Facebook Page Album.
Has something changed? Many thanks in advance for your feedback!
Paul,
Midlothian,VA

hi again.. in January it was a facebook problem.. there were no lightroom updates.. same now.. so you can go to facebook and fill in that form That Paul Diming talks about in a previous post
I have reported this problem to Facebook using their own problem reporting mechanism.
It would help if everyone who is having this issue should do the same. Here is the process:
1. Click on the pull down on the far upper right of the screen.
2. Click "Report a Problem"
3. Click "Something Isn't Working"
4. Select Pages on the pull down.
5. Explain the problem.
6. Upload a screen image. I captured an image of trying to create a new published collection with the pull down showing no Page Albums listed.
It might help for Facebook to know that it isn't just me having the problem.
