yes ive rebooted, nope, no stardock multiplicity service installed, on either machine, as i said before this happened in the past as well, and must of been common since there was that BAT file to reinstall the service, but that doesn't work with this version, either that or this install isn't complete
man, for some reason there are no archives in my folder either, crap i can't even restore it this totally sucks. it even asked me if i wanted to create the archive, only an impulse and windowblinds archive in there, WTF man
i seem to remember there being 2 processes for multiplicity running, now i only see Multipl.exe, and there is no service for it that i can see either.
ok, well, i dunno what to do now, i rely on this app throughout the day and not sure what i'm going to do.
well, it should be MP Pro i'll have a quick look and see what it did yep, both machines are showing MP Pro.
and it definately sees the other machine, if i disable the firewall, it instantly tells me it can't connect, if i enable the firewall, it takes a while before it tells me that. very strange
i uninstalled first because impulse said it had to uninstall the previous version first. i updated one PC, and it could still connect to the second PC, then i updated the second PC, and it stopped working altogether
great, so i uninstalled and installed again, i got to log files popped up Application start: 2010-2-19 13.29.7 Silent modeMode 1, short info WARNING: Directory creation error: 183 Submitting activation request...Download: success Activation result: 5 Application start: 2010-2-19 13.56.32 Silent modeMode 1, short info WARNING: Directory creation error: 183 Submitting activation request...Download: failed HttpSendRequestResult
so i uninstalled and then installed the update through impule to MP today. now the machines won't connect. in the past you could sometimes use the reinstall_mpp_service.bat to fix the problem, but that doesn't work with the new version, tells me directory not found or path not found, don't really remember. anyways, what can i check?
here is the fix https://forums.stardock.com/368958/#2526075
ok, found the solution here so happy now https://forums.stardock.com/368958/#2526075
WOW DUDESKI YOU JUST MADE MY DAY! this has been annoying me for so long now, i've posted about this in the past several times and all i heard from stardock was it's because it doesn't support x64, which is true it says 32bit only. either way thanks alot. this really should be a sticky
i have posted about this a while ago, all i got was x64 isn't supported. i wish they would support it, it's quite annoying to see all those blank icon shortcuts. if i go in a give each icon it's own icon file, then it works.
i'll give that a shot, but the problem is that the default windows cursor is blanked out, so when cursorFX fails, there is no cursor at all. maybe this will work, i'll post after it fails and i try it. thanks
so just wondering, is there maybe something that can be done with keyboard launchpad that would reset the default windows cursors?
i found the culprit, it's fences. and i did a test on another machine, bam same thing
i'm running it on Windows 7 x64 with no issues
well, i was tempting a reformat and thats what i did, i did flush the cache though. i always forget to mention what version and whatnot, i guess i'll follow up next time it happens lol, but thanks for the help
so could this be a rendering problem? maybe direct X? do these docks use directX for flyouts? is this thing on?
hmmm, tried xdock, same thing. so now i'm at a total loss, is it possible it's maybe video driver related?
on a side not, i installed rocketdock with stack docklet, which i use with objectdock plus where i first noticed, and then tried flyouts with same problem. rocketdock is also not showing the icons, so i don't think it is something with objectdock, but maybe iconpacker/icon studio?
all was well, until object dock crashed on me one day. now the icon images for most, not all, flyout items are a blank generic icon. if i browse to the folder where the icons are, it works fine. if i drag the same shortcut directly to objectdock, it also looks fine. if i go in and manually change the icon, this also works fine. i did uninstall object dock and do a clean install of it, and then restored a theme that worked previously, and same iss
hmmm, pretty sure i said cursor FX, also, hows my number
so please, can we get some sort of response, i bought it, but i don't have it and would like it. thanks
