Spotify cannot find my app - spotify

I created my first Spotify app. I put my manifest.json, cafeplaylist.js, and index.html in users/tati/documents/cafeplaylist on my Windows machine. From Spotify (which knows I am a developer, proven by the fact I have a Develop tab), I type spotify:app:cafeplaylist. It cannot find my app!
I also tried this from my Mac, creating tatianabecker/Spotify/cafeplaylist with the same files. It also cannot find my app!
These 3 files can be found in the main file of https://github.com/realoptimal/socialmix
Bummed, as I can't even get going writing my first app if it can't be found. Someone suggested it is because I don't have Premium. Is that is, or something else?
Thanks,
Tatiana
PS I see others have asked similar questions, but their problems were cleared up by putting the files in the right folder... mine persists.

Your github link isnt working, but maybe you should check this question out: Spotify App Dead
You probably dont have a BundleIdentifier and a BundleVersion added to your Manifest file.
Check out my Manifest.json file, for a correct view!
Hope this helped you out ;)

Google Chrome DevTools elements search not working

Since about a week ago, I haven't been able to search for elements or the contents of an element in Google Chrome DevTools. Did the latest Chrome update break this functionality or has something else changed that I should be aware of?
I first thought I had accidentally changed some of the DevTools settings, but now the same thing started happening on my other dev machine as well, so I think it must be a bug in the latest update?
Is it just me? :)
EDIT: After a few days of wondering what could be possible causing this.. it just started working again after I restarted my Win 7 machine. The simplest fix the best fix, huh?
On another note, if the error starts happening again, I'll need to dig deeper as what might cause it and file a bug if necessary.
For now, it works and I'm happy :)
No results in DevTools element search. Here is a screenshot:
I solved that by disabling "Adblock Plus", it worked in 3 browsers I tried.
This is a legit bug. Thanks for reporting it. It's being tracked here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=426815
As of November, it's been fixed in tip of tree (Canary) and has been merged to the beta branch (39).
(Originally answered by vsevik, an engineer who develops the DevTools, however the post was deleted by moderators.) :/
I had the same issue, search wasn't working, because I couldn't see the page. When I clicked on the page, under the Sources tab, I got a blank page. What worked for me was refreshing the page in Chrome. After that, the code showed up in Developer Tools, and I was able to search the code. This seems to be a Chrome bug.

Where to look in my Joomla installation for the pharmacy hack?

We've discovered today that our Joomla website has been hacked by a pharmacy trojan.
It was difficult to discover because most users don't see it when visiting our website.
One user reported about 2 weeks ago that our site contains viagra/pharmacy spam.
We've looked into it, but found nothing. The conclusion was that the users computer was infected.
Yesterday another user reported this problem, so I've started to investigate again.
One hour later I've discovered that the site is indeed infected.
When I visit this webpage with my web browser all if fine:
http://www.outertech.com/en/bookmark-manager
But, if I do a google translate of this webpage I see the infection (viagra and cialis links):
http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=en&tl=de&js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.outertech.com%2Fen%2Fbookmark-manager
The same happens if I use curl:
curl -L -A "Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.google.com/bot.html)" http://www.outertech.com/en/bookmark-manager
As a next step I made a backup (Akeeba) of the website and transferred it to a local xampp installation for further investigation.
The local xampp installation with the website has also the same problem, so indeed the Joomla installation is infected.
a visit of
http://localhost/en/bookmark-manager
shows no problems, but a
curl -L -A "Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.google.com/bot.html)" http://localhost/en/bookmark-manager
contains the viagra links.
I've looked for hours at the (mostly php) files, did a lot of greps etc, but I cannot find anything suspicious.
Virus Total and Google Webmaster report the site as clean.
I did an audit on myjoomla.com, but no malware was found.
I would be really grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.
Where to look inside my Joomla installation for this hack?
I've restored an older backup that was not infected to a local Xampp installation. Did a backup of the current site and installed into to another local Xampp instanced. Made a diff of all files between the two installations and found the hack in the application.php file (it was only one line). Removed the line and the hack died. I still don't know how the site got infected (all addons are the latest versions). I've changed the password as a security measure and monitoring for this hack once a week.
edit: myJoomla.com report did actually find the hack, I didn't read the report carefully enough.
We recently recovered and migrated a Joomla 1.5 site to 2.5 and the hack was found in the template files (index.php and various override files in the templates html/ directory).
The surprising thing was we also found that about 1 in 10 of the articles had been infected. i.e. when we searched the jos_content table we found the fulltext column had Javascript embedded in it. So, I would suggest also looking there.
Your best bet is to use a tool like myJoomla as it was specifically created for this sort of thing for Joomla.
I also had this problem where if I'm visiting a sub page, the home page would load instead and show a lot of Pharmacy gibberish. But this only happened when I had Firefox Firebug opened. It turned out in my template under /html there was a mysql.php file that shouldn't be there. Luckily, I created this template so I deleted the template on the server and uploaded my original version and the problem went away. Hope this helps.

WordPress can't display uploaded images (3.6)

I'm having a bit of trouble with a client site, on their server (our development server is fine).
We were hoping to push it live today, so we created a test subdomain to make sure his server's okay with the site.
However, the media uploader doesn't seem to work properly. The file will upload, without any error messages, however, instead of displaying the image in the thumbnail preview, it shows a little blue ?.
The file is actually uploaded to the server, but for some reason it can't be displayed online.
For example this should be the location of a newly upload image, but for some reason it can't be accessed.
I was thinking the issue is with folder permissions, but changing everything to 777 didn't seem to do anything. So I'm a little confused as to what's wrong.
Apparently they host a couple dozen WordPress sites and don't have this issue. I did think it's a server problem because it works on two other servers.
Anyone had an issue like this before?
[EDIT]
It turns out deactivating a plugin called Sell Media Watermark does the trick.
However, this plugin is needed so I'm working to find a fix for it :)

Spotify's "Sorry, I could not find this app"

As in the API documentation, I have created a ~/Spotify/myapp/index.html (on a Mac) but when loading spotify:app:myapp from the search bar in Spotify (preview version that supports apps) I get a "Sorry, I could not find this app" message.
What am I missing (this should be all for a "Hello World" according to the docs, right? Is there a way I can debug this to better understand the problem?
It sounds like you did not apply for being a developer at Spotify. Do you have a menu item called Develop and have the ability to right-click inside given apps?
If not, you need to have developer capabilities activated by Spotify. You can do so on their Site. Your account will probably not be activated instantly.
I just made a video explaining how to solve this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paqq3h1UJhU
Basically you need to go to the Spotify.app -> Contents -> Resources -> cef_views ; and drop your stuff in there.
Something else to keep in mind! I was trying to create my app with an underscore in the name, and for some reason it choked up the application. As soon as I removed the underscore and kept it to just letters, it worked fine. shrug
So according to the docs you posted yourself, you need, in spotifys current form, to name your folder appstore.
Your application will appear in the sidebar in future builds - for now, please name the folder of your application “appstore” to have it appear in the sidebar. Please name your application accordingly in the manifest, and that very name will appear in the sidebar.
What I got wrong is that insite "Spotify" folder you have to create "Tutorial" folder, in my case all the files were on Spotify and not in Tutorial.

Website renders differently on server vs locally

I'm having a very bizarre issue. I have been building a website locally on my linux box and all was well until I uploaded the site files to a place where i have some hosted space. Everything renders exactly the same except one element in my footer which i think is affecting some jquery animation i am using. I thought maybe I was missing files or hadn't uploaded the latest versions of everything, so I deleted the server directory and re-uploaded everything exactly as is from my local copy. And yet, the problem remains. I'm not sure how this is happening. Has anyone seen this before, or does anyone have an idea what could cause this? I'm baffled! Thanks everyone!!! I am attaching screen shots.
Seems to be a cache problem. Try to force a refresh with F5 or CTRL+F5.
Try clear your cache in your browser settings.
If that don't work, use Firebug (an Firefox browser addon) to check actual css at your footer. This will show the problem.
BTW: don't use spaces in your URL if you can. Don't use spaces in your filenames/folders.
