10.4 acting strange

My wife has an ibook G4 using 10.4.11 and when you start a program like for example Safari and then launch the activity monitor you will see the monitor activity on the dock jumping but then it stops and no response. Even vice versa when you start the activity and then monitor launch Safari or any other software. Then when you launch Safari and then quit after using it will still show on the dock with an arrow pointing to it as if it is still ongoing. When you click on the safari icon it will not launch the browser at all and the rotation beach ball will come to life. This happens to other programs so when you launch and quit the arrow under the icon, you will see and you can not run it again. The operating system is corrupted? What I have to reinstall or are there preferences can I remove it?

You may need to start the iBook in safe mode to see if you can then look in the

System. The Console utility (note time/date problems occurred) to watch their newspaper

the reports which may (or may not) provide you with a few ideas about what is happening there.

• Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning - Apple Support

A full hard drive, where there is no free space left for virtual memory work

can cause several problems in performance and a general delay depending on the application.

The GUI and most of the things can be disrupted.

"At about this Mac' and more information you can point to System Profiler where

Details of the situation in the hardware vs software could be seen. Evidence of the questions

can also be noticed by simple, click the Macintosh HD icon, then use Get Info of

the "File" menu of Apple (finder) to see how much disk capacity is used, and what is not.

You need to get and use an external drive to store items that you want on

Save, in order to remove the originals you have archived on the internal drive. It comes

most of the time on your content, not parts of the system or native applications.

I hope that you have an external hard drive for backups and do a recent update it

If you restore or record content; breaks down the internal hard drive. As these

devices, HDD rotation age is subject to failure, & need replaced.

Don't know what else to say. I am used to do just a few things in a short time to see what

happens in one of my Macs many different configurations, and then act on them.

Perhaps someone can offer a different perspective and ideas on what to check.

Good luck in this case!

  • My apostrophe key acted strange since yesterday. Instead of typing an apostrophe, it's rather type a slash

    Hello, my apostrophe key acted strange since yesterday. Instead of typing an apostrophe, it's rather type a slash, placing the position where I type at the bottom of my sentence (don't know what his name), and sometimes it sticks all what I have on my Clipboard in where it is. It was very irritating at this point and I was not able to find anything that helps anywhere else. I tried to restart my computer earlier, but without success.

    This kind of behavior is usually the first sign of a faulty keyboard.  Try another keyboard plugged into a USB port to check.

    If yours is a desktop computer, replace the keyboard.  Certainly simple and cheap

    If yours is a laptop, you will need the services of a competent technician with the RIGHT part.  Beware, there are several laptop keyboard parts which are similar, but not the right ones.  This will probably cost you more than $100.  You should consider a solution much easier and less costly - buy and use an external keyboard.

  • DW acting strange - does code view

    My Dreamweaver CS3 started acting strangely since I've upgraded to a new version of CS3 studio.
    I worked with CS3 for a while now without needing too much adjustment of DW8.
    However, I just bought a new computer and I had to reinstall all my software.


    On the new box, DW is very strange:

    (1) when I'm in page layout mode and click on an item to go to the corresponding line of the code of the item that is no longer, it goes to the line. However, it does when I right click on it. It's a bit embarrassing because it also opens the context menu at the same time.

    (2) when I'm in mode code (which is 99% of the time) and I click on an item, it shows me is no longer the corresponding CSS rule in the CSS pane. Once again, if I click right sometiomes it works, but it is not reliable in any event. Sometimes it works if I double click, but most of the time it isn't.


    (3) the icon of comment in the toolbar code is often dimmed. No reason so that I can see and every so often he work wil on the same line of code where it did not a minute before.

    I've raked the preferences line by line, without success.
    On my old computer I never had problems like that. I find it very strange and it's crimping considerably my workflow. Did someone knowing theis behavior or how to fix it?

    > If I reinstall I will lose all of it.

    It's unfortunate, but maybe it's your only option.

    > 20 hours

    Seems a bit long for me. I uninstalled CS3 at least 20 times and none
    has taken more than two hours, with complementing most much faster than that.

    > If anyone has experienced this before, I'm all ears. Thank you

  • keyboard acting strange from time to time

    Hello

    I don't know if this was due to the recent update of microsoft, but at least the problem started occurring after that I installed the latest patch for windows 7 (Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 for x 64-based systems (KB980182)).

    My keyboard works as usual, but sometimes the keyboard starts acting very strange, typing letters on its own or does not at all or even be stuck in letters. For example, if im playing a game or by typing all of a sudden the keyboard starts to type ' | '. 5' and stuff like that I know that I press.

    IM using a HP HDX16-eo, updated 1300 all useful drivers from their homepage as well.

    Everyone knows that before or after the last update? I couldn't find anything about it.

    Best regards.

    I reinstalled the operating system today and the problem is still there, I don't know how to solve this problem, I'm guessing that the hardware is damaged and I have to send in for repair?

    Thanks for the help so far

  • iPad pro icon load acting strangely.

    Since iOS 10.0.2 was installed when I charge my iPad Pro 9.7 "icon at the top right seems to act differently.

    Before the iOS update when I plugged the cable into the icon would change from the percentage text and a white bar for the battery to a green bar and the prosecution would progress (sometimes the text would update) and move the green bar. When 100% has been reached the green bar would be change in white and below it would say not charging.

    It seems now the green bar works fine, up to 95%. So if the iPad goes into 'sleep', when I wake up it it says NO charging current, but there the text usually is greater than 95%? If I pull the rope and reinsert, the bar turns green, but at some point he indicates NO CURRENT charging or the screen goes black and when awakened it indicates NO CURRENT charging.

    However, once it reaches 100% now STAYS green bar? He turns not white nor the State DO to RECHARGE not?

    I do NOT use a standard charger, but an Insignia desktop charger. This has worked for me for years without problem? Even on this iPad Pro (and an iPAD 2 and 3 in the past).

    Ideas? Code modified to load differently to avoid overheating of the battery? My charger is a failure? Do not recharge the iPad is slower than before?

    Confused...

    Hello. They changed the logic that monitors the loading. As you say, everything works as before. If you use the original charger, that it should behave normally, because it will receive a higher current (faster loading).

  • Keyboard acting strange on Tecra A2

    Hey,.

    Keyboard is really strange on my Tecra A2. Him answer one key held for a long time, then react quickly with 2/3/4 of the same letters. I think it may have something to do with the function key as the F10 touchpad light icon still flashes, also when I type space, generally, switches between normal and large screen.

    In the Device Manager, all right.
    For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. I'm going insane using the screen keyboard!

    p.s My knowledge of computers is poor

    Hello

    Hmmm, the F10 keyboard light can be turned off with the function FN + F10.
    This feature allows small grey arrows on the buttons like U, O, or K.
    I think that it is also the reason for switching between normal and wide mode using the space key.
    The FN + space will allow this function.

    The repetition of characters can be changed in the keyboard option in the control panel. I recommend to play a bit with this function.

  • Driver ATI for A300-15 a acting strange - windows XP

    Hello!

    I got Satellite A300-15 a PSAJ4E with windows XP SP3. I downloaded all the drivers from http://www.toshiba-europe.com/.
    Everything works well except the driver ATI Radeon HD 3650. When I install windows get some strange colors. I.e. welcome letters on the start screen have orange background? The nuances under letters are orange (no matter what theme I use). Links in Firefox are orange or red... it works fine but seems strange...

    The problem is that I can't find any other driver to install. If I download driver driver ati or omega he says it does not support this model. Actually on ati pages there is no drivers for newer than x 1800 mobility Radeon.

    Is there any other driver for download or some other advice?

    Thank you!

    Hi, I also A300 but 15 k with Ati 3470, you need to download the latest drivers from ATI (8.7) web and mod them to this http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php tool and then install it, if it will not work that manually choose the INF of unzipped Ati drivers, it works for me...

  • Acer Liquid Jade acting strange

    Hello world

    I recently did an accidental reset on my liquid Jade, and I started my phone in demo mode. It's really annoying and I tried to delete the video demonstration, or something, but still sayd demo Mode at the bottom left, so I tried to do a Hard Reset startup again, but I got in this strange Japanese/Chinese or whatever the language of the screen, with color bars. I am little freaked right now and I can't figure out how to stop it again, right now im hiding in the back of my office and let it run out of power.

    I really hope that someone can help me, I'm kind of terrified by what she could do right now

    -Eva

    Thanks a lot for your help, but I solved the problem in a different way, I found "Backup and Reset" in the settings, and I ran a factory reset from there. Luckily, I was smart enough to store my photos and contacts on the SD card.

    I'm glad there are people like you who are so kind to help others, it is appreciated a lot

  • Apex_ir.get_report acting strange in the apex 5

    Hello world


    According to the guidelines of this thread, I've implemented the service recommended to manage the requirement.

    Dynamic action for "no filter selected" on IR

    This works well in the apex 4.2

    In 5 Apex, I get an error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital error or value

    I spent hours trying to understand what is happening and the strange thing is that the function returns the correct value (as a number). When I remove the call to the function of my sql IR base then it starts to work, of course, does not have the functionality I'm looking for.

    Any ideas? I'm on 5.0.0.00.31

    Thank you!

    Hello

    had a look at the code of apex_ir.get_report, and due to some code changes necessary it will never work inside the international registration data source more. But I played a little and it seems that the following code does exactly what you want. But no guarantee that it works also in a future version of the APEX.

    create or replace function get_filter_count(p_application_id in NUMBER, p_page_id in NUMBER)
    return NUMBER
    AS
        l_region_id number;
        l_report_id number;
        l_count     number;
    BEGIN 
    
        select region_id into l_region_id
        from apex_application_page_regions
        where application_id = p_application_id
        and page_id = p_page_id
        and source_type = 'Interactive Report';
    
        l_report_id := apex_ir.get_last_viewed_report_id (
                           p_page_id   => p_page_id,
                           p_region_id => l_region_id );
    
        select count(*)
          into l_count

  • Photoshop CC 2015 acting strange? Help!

    I just built a brand new computer and Photoshop CC 2015 is very strange.  I have improved my components (960, 32 GB of Ram, i7 processor video card, etc.) and photoshop runs slower when I had my 5 year old computer.  Here are the questions:

    (1) every time I click on a dialog as to sharpen or something else, the disappers from the box.  If I click on the sliders and the whole box (sharpness, blur, etc.) just disappers and then reappers when I release the mouse.

    (2) the opacity sliders are gone when I want to adjust the opacity of a layer?

    All the drivers have been upgraded, etc.

    Ideas, suggestions?

    I simply changed parameter of the normal to the game mode mode and multimedia of the bios mode.

  • Time Machine acting strange

    iMac - Mountain Lion 10.8.5

    Since the last backup with time machine, I just added a few Photos to my iPhoto Library (1.4 MB) and made very few minor changes to certain documents. The next backup should have been more than 50 MB. Instead, Time Machine backup and backup. He went about like this:

    backup of 4 MB to 5 MB

    12 MB to 16 MB

    30 MB to 40 MB memory

    1 GB 2 GB

    and so it went upward and upward. I stopped the backup when she went from 14 GB to 16 GB of backup.

    What could it maybe be back up?

    Until the backup is started, I had just deleted multiple iPhoto libraries starting from Time Machine backups. Could it be, this time Machine tries to reconstruct those yet? I thought that when you delete something of Time Machine, it is permanently deleted.

    Hi, how do you delete things,™, in the Finder or™?

    Start the restore Partition holding CMD + r to start, use disk Utillity to repair two discs... any change after a normal start then?

  • change power cord causes mice to act strangely

    I installed a new power cord for my laptop today, and since the mouse was difficult to maneuver.

    Right now the top of my head I can think of two very good reasons for this problem, but it relies on the mouse is wireless.

    1. Brick of power (for example the transformer) is perhaps not the right voltage or if it is, it may not be able to produce enough power. Subsequently, your devices (for example, mice or USB ports) could suffer brown-out. Check that the power rating on the labellig against the recommendations of the manufacturer of your laptop.
    2. The power cord and the power brick is poorly protected and it interferes with the signal wireless mouse. If this is the case, you can most likely get in trouble for staying connected to a wireless point.
