Default catch! with hub at start up

When starting up with my macally usb 4-port powered hub connected to the mac, open firmware hangs with following error message on a gray screen
GETCLASSDESCR for Hub error0ff927ef8 ffbd8c90 9
DEFAULT CATCH!, code 300 at %SRR0: _
Booting up with usb-hub not connected is ok, also the hub works fine when connected while the computer, G4 (apg) 10.3.9, is running.
I would like to use this old hub if possible. Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?

John
open firmware hangs … the hub works fine when connected while the computer is running.
Are you sure your firmware is up to date?
The version you need for a PowerMac G4 (AGP Graphics) is 4.2.8 Power Mac G4 Firmware Update 4.2.8: Information and Download.
Of course, if your hub worked OK before, it may just be a good idea to reset OF:
Hold down Command, Option, 'O' and 'F' keys while starting up. This gives you a command line interface with a '>' prompt. At that prompt type these three lines (followed by a return in each case):reset-nvram
set-defaults
reset-allThe first two commands will respond with 'ok' (on the same line). You probably won't see the third response, since your computer should resume normal startup immediately.

DEFAULT CATCH! @ start up

Now have you ever heard of this one? I haven't. And I've been MAC forever! When I turn on my MAC (and this just started since I downloaded & installed hp printer software), the following appears and looks like something out of pre-PC:
DEFAULT CATCH! code=fffffff6 at #SRRO=ff80b648 $SRR1=00006030

So, I did, then got a screen with verticle black lines, then it kicks into normal start up!!
WELL, DID YOU EVER?!
If you say "reboot with disk repair disk" you better send me one, 'cause all my disks went with the wave in Hurricane Katrina and I don't have ANY disks!
Other than that, all's fine.
HELP!!

Somewhere, somehow, I will find some disks to install from. It may take a few weeks. Willing to wait?
Sorry, didn't remember about the discs; I read dozens, sometimes 100+ posts in a day, so don't remember all details of each one, and don't always take the time to read back through a whole thread if I don't think I need to.
I use email subscriptions to any thread I post in, so whenever you post back again, I'll get an email. And I'm usually patient.
In the meantime, you could try to boot into Safe Mode.
Also try Single User/Verbose Mode and run fsck.
As I look back at your original post, I also see you're running "4.1.8f5 BootROM," so it appears that your firmware is updated; however, if the update was not done properly, I have no idea what the effects might be. The only other thing I can suggest, prior to finding your discs, is to get rid of that HP printer software and see if that makes any difference.

DEFAULT CATCH! code=FFF00600

Trying to boot of the Panther Install Disk 1 in a Beige G3 where the Utilities folder disappeared. Safari, Disk Utility, System Profiler, all gone. I would like to run Disk Utility from the install disk but probably should just reinstall.
I have removed practically everything that isn't soldered to the mother board and reinstalled original G3 CPU.
When I double-click the Install Mac OSX icon on the install disk and click to restart, I get a command prompt with the following message:
DEFAULT CATCH! code=FFF00600 @ %SRR0: 01C00D04 %SRR1: 00003070

To continue booting the MacOS type:

If I type boot(return) I get a response "boot CLAIM failed"
If I type bye(return) I get an OS9 Smiley Mac, then it restarts to a perpetual OSX Apple with the spinning spokes. After about 10 minutes, I turn off the power and then back on but it boots off the internal disk.
I've also tried to change the startup disk to the CD and restart and I've tried starting up with the "C" key down. Usually it just boots off the internal disk anyway.
PowerMac G3 Desktop (beige) Mac OS X (10.2.x)

I just discovered that the one DIMM I had left in was not the original, but a third party DIMM. After replacing it with the original memory, I was able to boot from the Install CD. However, Disk Utility was not able to restore my Utilities folder. I will now perform a clean install.

Stuck in Default catch!, OS9 loop on a partitioned disk

I can't get back to OS 10.3
I partitioned a new 40GB drive. Info says 7.8 GB for OS9, and 30.16 for what is now OS10.3. OS9 is the first partition.
Here's what happens:
Updated to OS 10.3
Restarted. Was working to fine in OS 10.3 and decided to restart again for (unrelated(?) networking issue).
On start up, I got HappyMac and then a screen that reads "Default catch!"
I looked up in apple support how to get by that. I type "reset-nvram" ENTER, then "reset-all" ENTER, which restarts and boots to OS9.
I already tried switching start up disks to OSX while in OS9. That just brings me back to Default catch! screen and cycle begins again.
This did not happen until I upgraded to OS10.3. It worked fine for weeks in OS 10.1(?) -- whatever the PB came with.
Thanks. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Kerry,
I don't know how to fix the specific issue your PB is having, but I would start from scratch and not partition the HD. Is there some specific reason you want to? All Macs that can boot 9 and X shipped from Apple with both 9 and X on the same partition.

Did you specify <all-permissions/> in your JNLP file? Did you sign your code? What error are you getting?

If I don't use the default homepage I have to start Firefox twice. I have all add-ons and extentions disabled.

I have tried setting my homepage to Google and to Bing but Firefox closes as soon as the page loads. Starting it a second time works with no problems.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can try to reset Firefox.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
Reset creates a new profile and tries to import some settings from the old profile leaving the old profile intact.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
Also check the settings in your security software.
A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Open CC applications to default preferences with no user input

I am searching for a way to open CC applications to default preferences with no user input. I understand there is a key board short cut (command/option/shift on start) but I am hunting for a way to have the preferences always revert to default. In the past I have written a script to delete the preference files upon computer start up but once again, it needs to be rewritten. Is there a method that does not require KLUDGE?

Need to find a scripts for changing default "Open with" iTunes app to Quick

Hello all...
I'm new to scripting but need a script really quickly...
I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a script that will change the default "Open with" of audio files placed within a certain folder on my desktop...
I'm making sound clips with WireTap and dumping them in a folder called WireTapExports as .mp3. I then need to play them without using iTunes (and importing them by default) but going into the "Get Info" and manualy changing the "Open With" settings for each file is taking ages...and it's very irratating...
Is there a way I can make all audio file put in that folder automaticaly open with Quicktime instead.
I know this is quite easy to most but I've only just started looking at Applescript (i.e. a few days ago) and but I need this to work now...
Many thanks in advance...
PigeonCake...

Not what you want, but if you hold the control key while getting info it changes to summary info which then lets you change the preferred application on a batch of files in one go.

IIS Issue:when trying to download code from AWS S3 and deploy in IIS server using Power Shell script while Windows startup Default Application pool is not started.

Hi,
I am trying to launch Amazon EC2 windows server 2008 R2 instance using AWS Auto Scaling feature. I have used cusmized AMI in Autoscaling Launch configuration to launch an instance.I have placed Power Shell script in AMI.
The responsibility of script is to download code from AWS S3 and deploy in IIS server while windows startup first time.
When i check status, IIS is started succesfully. But default Application pool is not started.
To resolve this issue i have written one scheduled script. It helps to start the application pool if any application pool is in stopped state.
After this Application pool is started but i am not able to communicate with IIS server through browser.
Please help any one to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

Migrating from Sql Server tables with column name starting with integer

hi,
i'm trying to migrate a database from sqlserver but there are a lot of tables with column names starting with integer ex: *8420_SubsStatusPolicy*
i want to make an offline migration so when i create the scripts these column are created with the same name.
can we create rules, so when a column like this is going to be migrated, to append a character in front of it?
when i use Copy to Oracle option it renames it by default to A8420_SubsStatusPolicy
Edited by: user8999602 on Apr 20, 2012 1:05 PM

Hi,
Oracle doesn't allow object names to start with an integer. I'll check to see what happens during a migration about changing names as I haven't come across this before.
Regards,
Mike

Restore from non default location with rman

Hi,
How can I restore a couple of archive logs from a location which is not the default backuplocation to a directory which is not the original location?
So far I've come to this:
SET ARCHIVELOG DESTINATION TO 'D:\temp\';
RESTORE ARCHIVELOG FROM SEQUENCE 1 UNTIL SEQUENCE 100;
But how do I tell RMAN that the backup where it has to look is located?
Roeland

You should first catalog the archive logs so RMAN knows where they are. You can catalog them with:
RMAN> catalog start with 'D:\temp';

Set Column Default Value with Workflow

After I add an item including metadata in a List, a Workflow starts to create a Library Folder with rootfolder, subfolder and sub-subfolder names based on the List first three column values.
I like that the unique created library subfolder automatically receives several additional List column values in its Column Default Value with that workflow.
After done, documents added to this subfolder are automatically populated with Metadata from the parent Subfolder.
Workflow standard function can be used to populate the folder Column Value to this but not the Column Default Value.
Does someone has a solution how to set Column
Default Value using a workflow?
I like to use such workflow in Sharepoint 2010.
Thank in advance.

Hi,
I think it cannot be achieved by workflow.

I'm behind a proxy. In my browser -Chrome, IE and FF- putted the info of the proxy and I can browse. Aldo tried to put the info in the Java "Network Settings". It did not work -the launching of the console-.
I installed the last Java Web Start in Windows 7 -Java7 Update5-. I disabled my anti-virus and firewall. Always the same result.
Could you help me please. I don't have idea of what is going on.
Greetings.
PD: I tested from other machines of the company and it works. So, I guess is my laptop. I exported the oracle certificates from those machine and imported them into mine.
