Default Flipping Desktop!!
Since 1.05 My game has been Unplayable!
When Elite loads it starts Shift/Alt-tabbing between desktop and game every 2 secs!
I have tried everything from re-installing to start up programs.
5 open tickets and still the same issue!
This is so maddening and i don't think i have ever come across a more annoying problem.
If there's anyone out there has this issue or knows how to fix it PLEASE!! HELP !!
Really love the game and I'm so disappointed i can't play it.

I took a mission to kill Dr Julian Shatner. After being redirected I found him in Sobek system. I have now killed him three times (not difficult, he's in an orca, but doesn't shoot back) but the mission won't update to show completion and I can't collect the reward.

Anyone seen this one before or know how to complete it?

Got the same problem mate. exact same freaking thing. No not a clue how to fix it either. think its some sort of new mission script that's running because when I engage a "system authority vessel" warps in and scan me in a "just checking to make sure no crimes are going down" kinda way, but because the system is anarchy he shouldn't even exist, so when he scans me (as im blowing seven shades out of my target) he stops his patrol turns around and leaves without a word. I think the thing must glitch because the authority gimp is forced to warp out again while I carry on with the orca.... and nothing happens after it dies. EVER.

OK, i'm unsure if i'm in the right spot but here it goes IMHO:

Suggestions/Questions/Bugs:
- Add warning messages in outifiting. I've bought a new Power Distributor and new pulse lasers only to find out that my ship power usage was overcharged and i could not use my new lasers. I know the mistake was mine for not double-checking Power Available value, but if i knew, i would spent my money on a Power Core.

Just want to point out that the stat bar in the bottom right indicates such things since it becomes red in power.
 
- Galaxy map "Fastest Routes" never show anything.
Works like a charm for me.

Ty for your awesomely helpful answer in a bug section
 
Outstanding bugs:

- AI ships having weapons deployed whilst charging FSD.
- Bounties not being awarded despite getting first hit, last hit and doing the lion's share of the damage.
- Being wanted in one jurisdiction, yet there being no option to pay a fine with either local security of pilot's federation at a station owned by a different faction in the same system.

I've had a similar issue (and I was the only one firing), but I have since learned that you must have hit your target within the last 10 seconds of it exploding to get the bounty. I would stop firing when the target reached %0, because I knew he was dead.

Not all enemies give a bounty, after being fired upon in an Anarchy system by pirates, I have not received a bounty for killing them. Who would pay it?

Can be resolved by exiting and logging in again(if it doesn't work then try with Solo mode), I did that and the bounty on my head just vanished.

You're welcome, next time please waste even more time writing redundant comments.

I'm having the same problem but a couple hours ago i remembered that the galaxy map maybe doesn't show anything because i still have the stock Frame Shift Drive. Thus, i can't perform long jumps to be fast. Still haven't checked if this makes any sense ingame.
 
My sound keeps disapear and game stop responding. I have tried reinstall game on C: I have reinstalled Win 7 x64. Now I'm stuck in a hyperspacejump that never ends :( This game was good 1.0 and gone bad after some updates? I'm very sad right now :(

-Edit-

I have changed USB port for soundcard and it seems to help. Was able to play for an hour now! :)

Conflict zone bug - was fighting in a conflict zone last nigh and all of a sudden it reverted to a "normal" USS, so the viper I was shooting at reverted from a valid combatant to a system security craft and I ended up with a bounty.
 
Not sure if this has been mentioned, a quick search leads me to believe not. But after a "friendly fire" incident, I accrued a sizable bounty and immediately fled the vicinity to go pay my dues. Well, I get back to a neutral port and the bounty did not appear in the pilot federation contact screen, so I go check in a federation port and I'm still wanted...I save and exit the game thinking this is just a latency issue on my part and when I restart the game, no bounty or wanted tag. If this is a feature of the game (I highly doubt it) sorry to have wasted your time, if not good luck!
 
Right now I'm in Scorpius Dark Region BA-A D112
Three interesting things happened, one of which being rather annoying.

Firstly when I came dropped out of FSD and entered the Rings of a Planet (Scorpius Dark Region BA-A D112 2 B) several NPCs spawned (about seven I think).
Not that surprising I guess, but considering that I'm about 200 or 300 Ly away from civilised space it was quite unexpected. Don't know if that's really a bug though.

Secondly, when I engaged one of those ships (combat being a nice change of pace once in a while) I took damage despite my shields being up the whole time.
I was at 100% before my small encounter with that sidewinder, now I'm at 99% with all my Subsystems (except for the Detailed surface scanner) down to 98% or 99%.
Pretty sure I'm not supposed to take damage with my shields up, or is there some kind of weapon that can do this?
Anyways not a huge deal, but pretty annoying.

And lastly I'm scanning and scanning and scanning a belt cluster (Scorpius Dark Region BA-A D112 A Belt Cluster 6). The scan finishes and starts again right away.
 
BUG: Shields disappear

Dock at station, do your stuff, when exiting, there are no shields. You cannot turn them on. Must redock quickly before heat blows you up. Log out, then back in, shields are back. This does not happen at every station.

Sounds like you accidentally activated silent running? This would cause massive heat build-up and no shields.
 
Wish that was the case. This has happened 4 times already. So, not an accident. A bug. They will nto come back on. Must log out and log back in, and they are back.
Insert and delete keys (default for landing gear/light and silent running) ARE side by side. You never consider silent running in the OP of your other thread
