XBOX Music App for Windows 8 crashes and exits after a few seconds
Upgraded to Windows 8 Pro today from Windows 7. Everything seems to be working fine except for the music app. Not long after I open the app it crashes and exits the app. No errors, no warnings, etc..... Any ideas????
Hi,
Sounds like this is caused by the software conflicts, does it occur when you disable all background
third-party service and programs?
Or try to test with another account to check how it works.

[MBA 2013]sound crashes and restart after a few seconds
Hi guys,
I bought a Macbook Air in June 2013 and 2-3 months ago, I started having problems with the sound.
Basically, there is always one of those things running : iTunes, VLC or youtube/soundcloud so I always use the sound.
After some time, the sound is strange like it is dying. After a few seconds, it stops working and then I have to wait around 5-10 seconds for it to be automatically restarted. I don't have headphone or anything plugged in and no external sound card.
All my drivers are up to date and I have the last Mac OS X version (10.9.4 I think).
Does anybody know what I should do ? Format it ? Uninstall all the software like Boom, Accubeatmix (maybe they cause the problem but I've used them since I have the MBA).
I am used to using linux commands in a terminal if there is some dirty things to fix that so feel free to share those.
Thanks.I uninstalled Boom and it seems to work now. Strange that it worked without any problem for a long time.
I'll install it again and see what happens.
Thanks. -
I have an iPhone 4s. Sometimes when I open an app it closes again by itself after a few seconds. Any help pls??
I also had this problem. Go to settings> itunes & app store, tap on your apple ID and sign out. Then open itunes store. It should now open.
Then sign back in again and the problem should be resolved -
When I first plug in my power cord it lights up green and then after a few seconds changes to red. What does this mean and how do I fix it?
Apple systems in MBP have self-maintaining charging systems. If the battery is less than 95%, the charger light turns orange when plugged it. It will charge to 100% and stay green then will hold on charging until the battery drops to 95% again.

My iphone 4s turns off and restarts itself a few seconds or minutes after when I establish a FaceTime call. I've tried "Restore iPhone" from iTunes but the same thing keeps happening. Any solution?
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
Also, if this only happens with one Wi-Fi network, power cycle that Wi-Fi router.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order. -
Some Apps refuse to open or close after a few seconds. Is it the apps or the phone?
Has anyone else suffered from the following glitches?
A few apps I have purchased recently have worked fine for a couple of days but then seem to stop working. By stop working I mean an app is pressed, the screen flashes to black as though opening the app, but then fails and returns back to the original screen. This has happened on two apps thus far, shiftlife organiser and the free app movie SFX. I had to delete them and re-sync them on ITunes. They both appear to work fine for a few weeks and then fail to work for no obvious reason.
Another app Met Office Weather, will open correctly, but when navigating through the app to say weather maps, just shuts it down continuously. A game Death Rally, which I have been playing on and off for a while with no issues, now will open for a few seconds and then close itself again.
Another issue is functions not appearing. From the main menu screen I have flicked left to the search screen to find there is no keypad, or when accessing ITunes via the phone, cannot input the ITunes ID as there is no keypad to enter the password.
On each occaision i have rebooted the phone, but I dont want to have to keep performing this manual fix each time.
Its almost appears as though a virus is slowly infecting my Iphone 4S V5.0.1.
HELP!!Basics are restart, reset, restore.
Have you tried each of these? -
Wi-fi in Windows 7 Bootcamp drops after a few seconds
Hi there, I'd be really grateful for any help or advice anyone could offer me.
I just bought a 27" iMac (2013, Haswell) and have set up a Windows 7 Professional Bootcamp on the hard drive. I installed the Apple support driver pack and everything seems to be working fine. Everything that is, except wireless internet in Windows 7.
When I first boot into Windows 7 the wi-fi works perfectly. It connects to my router, it can load websites and begin downloads. But usually after about 10 seconds to a minute the taskbar wi-fi icon will have an ! next to it and no websites or downloads will work. To be clear, the wi-fi works perfectly in OSX (Mavericks) and for a few moments it works just as well in Windows.
I have checked my device manager and the driver for the Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter is present and accounted for, not to mention all the other drivers that suggest the Apple Bootcamp pack installed correctly. Downloads in particular seem to make it break faster - when I run Windows network diagnostics on it to get it fixed it says 'Troubleshooting has completed: The connection between your access point, router or cable modem and the Internet is broken Detected !, and The default gateway is not available Fixed *tick*'). This makes the connection work again but only for a few minutes...
I have done a lot of googling and there seem to be several problems with Windows 7 wireless in Boot Camp, but I can't seem to find my particular problem (where it obviously works, but something interferes) or any working method to solve it.
Thanks very much for your time.iphonemon wrote:
also this is what shows when the yellow ! sign shows on wifi bars. I have to -troubleshoot- option so it gets connected again...
Issues found Detection details
6 The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken Detected
The network gateway is accessible, but Windows couldn’t receive network traffic from the Internet.
You have a local connection to your Wireless Access Point but the upstream router/gateway is unable to pass traffic past it. Can you describe your network topology?
6 The default gateway is not available Fixed
The default gateway is a device that connects a local network or computer to the Internet. A broadband modem or router is usually the default gateway.
I read something about ''netsh winsock reset'' on cmd but since this is bootcamp windows I havent tried anything like this yet. as you can see It's like the first post, same issue, only on bootcamp win, OS X connection wont drop .
You may be better off using ipconfig/release and ipconfig/renew. Winsock reset is going to reset Network Adapter, which is not necessary. In your Device Manager -> Network Adapter, what are the entries? OS X has a completely different driver, so a comparison can lead to erroneous conclusions.
Here is an example on my machine with some additional windows for driver versions. Can you post what you have? -
Any fixes for system pref not responding after a few seconds in 10.7.4?
I'm openning System Preferences both from the dock and by clicking the black apple, it opens and stops responding after about 5 second and the beach ball of death appears. Tried restarting the unit, safe boot, verify and repair disk and permissions. Always the same issue. HELP!
Running out of "moving parts"...
Two (last?) things to try.
1. Instead of launching system preferences through the menu launch it explicitly by double clicking the app in /Applications.
2. Temporarily rename ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost. For example, stick a 'x' on the end of it ("ByHostx"). I don't want you to delete ByHost. Only temporarily rename it. This is the last possible directly-related system preference data that could have a problem.
If it still hangs after this I am not exactly sure what to pursue next. It can't be a login item or launch agent since these are suppressed when booting in safe mode. You deleted the system preference cache and plist. ByHost is the only thing explicitly related in you home directory.
One other thing would be to open Console for all messages and see if anything gets displayed when launching system preferences. -

Creative Cloud desktop App for Mac crashes and does not work
Installed creative cloud for MAC (running OSX 10.9). App does not run. I see the Creative Cloud icon at top of screen (in menu) for about 0.5 seconds then it disappears. No error messages or warnings. I have tried to uninstall and install the desktop app many times with the same results. It appears there is no way to download the LR CC and PS CC that I paid for.
I have even tried to run this from another dmim account. Same error.
I have run disk utility - repair disk and repair permissions.
Please can someone help me with this issue?
Thank you.Are you getting Error code 1 while running CreativeCloudInstaller.dmg file ?
If so , follow below steps :
Important : Launch Activity Monitor and "Force Quit" all the process related to Adobe like Creative Cloud setup, CoreSync, AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon from Activity monitor.
1)
Click on the Finder and look for the options listed next to Apple Icon located at the top left corner of the Desktop screen and click on "Go" menu button and select "Utilities" option.
(Applications>Utiliites)
Locate Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Application Manager folder under Utilities window and trash both folders.
2)
Click on the below link and download & run Adobe Cleaner tool :
Select the option "Adobe Application Manager for Mac OS X 10.6" and then click on "Clean up Selected" .

Whenever I open my recently Mavericks booted mac, a pop up box appears asking me
"Where is GrowlHelperApp.app?"
I have never used nor heard of Growl before.
I spent around an hour googling for a soultion, but the only ones I can find all relate to having Growl installed.
The worst part is that clicking "Cancel" immediately brings the box back up again, whilst moving it or just leaving the box open results in it closing itself after ~15 seconds just to re-open again.
It's extremely frustrating.
Does anyone know what to do to get rid of this without having to buy Grow
Cheers in advance!Thank you for your help!
I disabled them all one by one and it seems like it was the GeekTool Helper that was causing this..
Which is a shame because it added life to my desktop
You have yourself a good day Mr. Tony! -
It works on Safari.
It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
and what it does. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
'''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
'''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder.
'''Linux:''' Check your user manual.
Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
know what it is, use a web search.

Week old macbook (white) will not read discs and ejects after a few seconds
Hello, my mother got her macbook a week ago, and while I was at school this week she hardly used it. I've come home today with my office mac 2008 disc and while trying to install I learned her macbook would rather spit the disc out than read it (does not even show up on the desktop). I know for a fact that the disc is not the problem, seeing as I just loaded it on my macbook earlier this week. I'm about an hour and a half away from an apple store so visiting is sort of an inconvenience. However Best Buy is about 10 minutes away, but I'm not sure if my apple care insurance will work there. Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance guys.
Apple has a 14-day return policy, so if the MacBook is only one week old I think it would be worthwhile to make the hour and a half journey to get a replacement, if necessary. For me, that would be better than taking it in for repair. Of course, while you're at the Apple Store they will take a look at it and perhaps they can quickly correct the problem rather than replace the MacBook.

Why do photos look fab when first imported and flick to being dull and lifeless after a few seconds
as the question says I'm tired of looking through my newly imported images and being delighted with what i see but a second later the image goes flat and looks so dull
Becuase what you see first is the JPEG preview generated by the camera. I suspect you have it set to "vivid" or the like.
Aperture cannot use the JPEG preview in its rendering so it makes its own rendering, which is what you see after a second or two. It's probaby more accurate than a "vivid" preview, but you can always create an import preset which jacks up the saturation to your liking, if you want. -
All my other computers work fine with the network settings I have. I have done the reset in general settings and the toggling of the airplane mode button and a few other suggested remedies such as hard reboot, etC. Can anyone help? As much as I hate to do this I am thinking of going to another brand and perhaps someone would recommend one or discourage me from the move.
