Problem with Java after Software Update to 10.5.7

Hi,
I am facing problem with Java after having run Software upgrades.
Here is the whole story. I recently moved to iMac 10.5.6 from PowerPc 10.4. On this new machine I was having problem running a 3rd party application, which requires JVM. As this application worked well on Tiger, I decided to upgrade JVM on my iMAC using Software Upgrade(was I insane!!). As I like my systems to be updated (as with linux on my personal machine) I clicked "install all". As a result I have the following upgrades run on my machine:
2009-05-20 13:12:01 +0200: Installed "Mac OS X Update Combined" (10.5.7)
2009-05-20 13:12:10 +0200: Installed "Remote Desktop Client Update" (3.2.2)

  • Problems with Macbook after Software Update

    I haven't updated my Macbook in a long time, so I decided it was time I probably did. Software Update had updates for iTunes, Quicktime, and a 2009-Security Update. Everything seemed to be going okay. After the downloading and installing finished, it said the Security Update couldn't be installed and moved it to the trash. Then it prompted me to restart my computer because the other two installed okay.
    After restart, when my computer started back up, my Macbook is messed up. The doc is missing. I open a finder window, and it shows the main folders, but all the things on the right (where it shows the drive, applications, and such) is missing. I tried to back up my files, but it can't even read there is a blank disc inserted (keeps asking me to insert a blank disc). And it wont let me shut down my computer, or restart it. I click restart, and it seems like it accepts it, but it just doesn't do anything. The dashboard wont show up when you hit F12. This mac is all messed up.
    I don't know what happened here, all I installed was iTunes and Quicktime from the Software Update (security update didn't install), and all this happened. Any idea what happened and how I can fix this?
    I'm using Mac OSX Tiger 10.4.11.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    There's a variety of things you could try, but first as to why it is doing this. Probably your drive was slightly corrupted. If it was minor you might not have noticed it, but when the updates tried to install, the whole thing compounded and led to a whole bunch of things missing.
    First, try to repair your drive. Boot from the System installer disc that came with your computer or is the one for the version you currently have on there, select language if applicable, choose utilities, run Disk Utility and verify (and repair if necessary) the drive. You can verify a drive from DU on your main drive while booted but I have found this can result in incorrect reporting of errors. To repair your drive you have to run it from a drive other than the boot drive anyway.
    Next, boot from your drive in [Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393] and repair permissions. You can repair permissions while booted from the installer disc but this uses the permissions configuration on the installer disc which may be out of date if you have run any updates on your computer. Booting your computer to Safe Mode restricts the number of things running on your computer while permissions are being run and does a bit of spring cleaning at the same time.

    [Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751]
    +Summary of above from BDaqua+ (couldn't have said it better):
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer (Edit: Do not use this disc if it is not the same general version as what you have currently on your computer, e.g. use a Tiger disc for a Tiger drive, not a Panther disc), then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
    Then Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes."
    Report back after you have done this. It may be that you have to use a more powerful utility such as Diskwarrior.
    Once the drive is repaired you can try re-applying the two updates, though often it takes a full archive and install, plus re-application of all updates, to get everything working again.

    Updating
    Certain steps appear to minimize the risk of an update producing problems.
    Number one is to make sure you have a bootable clone backup of your computer in case you do need to back out of it again. This is the only guaranteed way of not having to worry about the results of an update.
    Some like to boot from their installer discs or an external backup and verify (and if necessary repair) their internal drives as well as drive permissions. This is done with Disk Utility. You can verify a drive while booted from the same drive but sometimes this produces spurious errors. Repairing a drive (if necessary) has to be done while booted from another disk.

    I like to download the update onto my computer and install it from there rather than let Software Update do it. I know a few people who had problems with doing the update via software updater found a manual install to work.
    Repair permissions again afterward.
    It helps to only install one update at a time and to run the computer for a while to make sure it is behaving well.
    The more cautious even like to unplug third party peripherals (see [comment by BDaqua|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9040746#9040746]).
    Almost all of the above steps (except backup) have been questioned (e.g., [Permissons repair|http://www.macworld.com/article/52220-3/2006/08/repairpermissions.html] as to necessity. Probably many people have done successful updates without doing them. I say they can't hurt, they can very likely do good (especially if your computer isn't regularly maintained), so why not do them to be safe?

  • HELP! Problems with MacBook after software updates install.

    Hi Guys,
    I have a friend of mine that has a MacBook. After a while without doing the software updates she connected her MacBook on the internet and there was a lot of software updates to do, so she went on and install everything. She describes me that the problem was with Tiger 10.4.11, it pop up a "Warning Sign - Error" and freezes she says.
    She re-start the computer and It get stuck on the gray window with the Apple with the lil circle spinning endless.
    Is there any tip or something that I can help her?...
    [Sorry about my english... lol)

    Hello coreanomac!
    The following Apple Support article is good for working through the problem. Based on your explanation of what happened, follow the advice of the "Try a different software update source" and "Installation fails during 'optimization'" paragraphs of the "Troubleshooting an unsuccessful installation" section:
    Mac OS X: Troubleshooting installation and software updates
    Also reading the "Before Installing" section may be useful, as well.

  • Problems with startup after software update

    I have just done a software update on my system, and now going back to my computer 2 hours later and turning it on, all I get is the grey screen with the apple and dial spinning...........
    Also the fans in the tower are going nuts.
    Is this normal for updates since leopard, seeing as I have never had this happen to me before

    No, that's not normal. It could be hardware. Shutdown.
    Run Apple Hardware Test:
    1. Disconnect all external devices from your iMac except the keyboard and mouse.
    If you have an Ethernet cable connected, disconnect it.
    2. Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 that came with your iMac.
    3. Restart your iMac and hold down the D key as your iMac starts up.
    4. When the Apple Hardware Test chooser screen appears, select the language
    appropriate for your location.
    5. Press the Return key or click the right arrow button.
    6. When the Apple Hardware Test main screen appears (after about 45 seconds), follow
    the onscreen instructions.
    7. Apple Hardware Test displays an error code if it detects a problem. Make a note of the
    error code before pursuing support options.
    Let us know.

    Hi man,
    In the wake of this java problem I resorted to keep working on my old machine, and today in my spare time I tried to fix this new machine.
    So I execute $java on prompt, and then try to check the files it has opened, using lsof -p pid
    I see it referring to
    /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/bin/java
    isn't this usually the JAVA_HOME
    However, executing $/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/bin/java
    hangs!!
    but
    $/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/bin/java
    works!!
    $ pwd

    $ ./java -version

    Linking my Current and CurrentJDK to 1.6 and it works!
    However, shall that be the reason!
    what is in your /Versions/Current/
    I got the following
    $ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current
    CodeResources Frameworks JavaVM
    Commands Headers Resources
    There is no /Home in here, which is usually the case for /1.5 or /1.6
    Anyways, things seems to work for the moment. Lets see if I get problem with using Java.
    thanks

  • Problems with java after the last update

    Hi, yesterday I downloaded and install the last update available for Snow Leopard. After having installed the update, I had problems with Matlab (I use the version R2010a), and the error code is reported below. Do you think the error and the update are correlated? Do you have any idea of how to fix the problem?
    Many thanks, and cheers!

  • Problem with new iPod software update and Robi DAB radio

    There seems to be a compatability issue between my iPod Classic and my Robi DAB radio attachment. The DAB radio was working just fine until last week, when I downloaded the latest iPod software updates. Since then, the Robi works fine when it is used as a remote control for the iPod, but when it is used in radio mode, the iPod shuts down after a few minutes (as though it does not recognise that the radio is still attached, and thinks that there is no activity) and the Robi closes down too (due to lack of battery power when the iPod is no longer on). It could be a coincidence, but my guess is that the iPod updates are causing a problem.
    I have tried to remove the new software updates from the iPod, ie I deleted the latest updates from the iPod software updates file (C/Documents and Settings/user name/Application data/Apple Computer/iTunes/iPod Software updates), unchecked the box labelled "automatically check for software updates", and then tried to restore the iPod using the old software. At that point, a message from iTunes appeared, to the effect that it could not go any further due to no internet connection. I could not find any way of restoring the iPod without letting iTunes download the current sortware updates.
    So the question is, does anyone else have a similar compatability problem (with the Robi or anything else) and how can I get the iPod to run on the previous software?
    I would be very grateful for any advice, as this is a very frustrating problem.
    Sue

    The good news is that I removed the most recent iPod software update, restored the iPod (ie returned it to factory settings and reloaded all 14500 songs) and now I am really pleased to say that the iPod and the Robi are working together again in harmony, which is a huge relief.
    Since I had inadvertently deleted the previous version of the iPod software from my PC, I had to download the files from here;
    http://rapidshare.com/files/73863240/1.0.3.zip.html
    I have contacted Roberts Radio about this problem. The recent 1.1 software update must be even more frustrating for them, since they have sold lots of Robi radios.
    If anyone needs help to revert to the previous iPod software, have a look at this thread, where the instructions are printed in red;

  • [Enlightenment E17] Problems with EFM after last Update [solved]

    Hello Folks!
    I'm having some very ugly problems with my Enlightenment E17 Desktop after the last full system upgrade. This problem has already been reported to the German Arch Linux community, but no response yet, but I can't figure out that nobody else troubles the same probs.
    This is the following what I get when running pacman -Ss e17-svn
    community/e-svn 42849-1 (e17-svn)
    Enlightenment window manager DR17 (aka e17)
    community/e_dbus-svn 42682-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    dbus abstraction layer for e17
    community/ecore-svn 42854-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    Ecore is an abstraction layer for e17
    community/edje-svn 42794-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    A graphical design and layout library based on Evas
    community/eet-svn 42851-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    A data storage and compression library
    community/efreet-svn 42759-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    freedesktop.org specifications for e17
    community/eina-svn 42822-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    E17 file chunk reading/writing library
    community/embryo-svn 42739-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    implementation of a C like scripting language for e17
    community/evas-svn 42855-1 (e17-libs-svn e17-svn)
    A hardware-accelerated canvas API for X-Windows
    The problems that occur to me are following: I'm using EFM as file manager. It's not the best one, but it fits into the E17 concept - simple, lightweight, fast - and thats what I like. But, after the latest update, when I click a folder on my desktop, EFM now comes up in a stupid very tiny window. The window is so small, that I need to resize it every time to see any content. Before the update, everything worked fine, the EFM windows came up as they should.
    Another problem I'm having with some applications, e.g. the Okular-Viewer, is that I'm not able to size down the window - it is always in full screen, and there's no chance to move it up (even not on the desktop preview widget) to move it down. Okular is always 100% filling my screen (over the height, only), and I'm not able to size it down. In the previous version, I didn't got this problems.
    My question is now: is there any way to install the previous Enlightenment E17 packages? They where much better that this one... or will another update come out soon??
    Thanks in advance for any help, any help is appreciated!

    Have you tried starting with a clean config and the default theme, it helps sometimes after big code changes?
    If that doesn't help...

    If you find some mirror which keeps outdated packages that should not be a problem. Be sure to downgrade all of e17 packages (also some packages were deprecated and thus removed from the server during the last upgrade so you'd need to have those as well. You may still have those on your system though)
    About a quick update, depends if Ican replicate it and if there is an easy fix. These things happen now and then with pre-alpha software when they do make major code changes.  I try to test every update locally before putting it live but I of course can't test every single feature.

  • Problem with Java Dates and UPDATE for SQL2000

    I am having problems with the date formats for Java. I am trying to put the current date time into a SQL table, here it the code I am using:
    var Today = new Date()
    var conn = Server.CreateObject( "ADODB.Connection" )
    conn.Open( "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=(local);Database=BillTracking;UID=sa;PWD=;")
    var sql = "UPDATE BillAssignments SET DatePosted = " + Today + " WHERE AssignmentID = '" + Request.QueryString("AssignmentID") + "'"
    var rs = conn.execute(sql)
    I keep getting different errors and I have been unable to find a solution yet. I know that I need to change the date format from the Java standard to the one that SQL likes.
    Help....
    Norm...

    Please tell us where the Java part of this comes in. I see that you are using JavaScript to load up data via an ADO connection (presumably on an IIS platform) - but I do not see where you are using Java

  • Problems w/ AirPort after Software Update

    I ran Software Update last night on my Powerbook and ever since I haven't been able to access the Internet wirelessly. AirPort is on, and I've had to submit my password, but I have no connectivity.
    I believe this has happened to me before and restarting has helped. But it didn't this time.

    I too have had the same problem with my iBook/Airport Extreme... still no solution yet I'm afraid though

  • Problem with MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1

    I've installed the MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 on my 17" MacBook Pro. Seems to have fixed any keyboard issues I may have been experiencing. But every time I run software update this particular update wants to be installed again. I've run the install three times and it's still being flagged as being needed.
    Anyone else having this problem?
    Only thing that I suspect is that it's because I've got my HD formatted as case-sensitive. I've noticed that formatting a drive as case-sensitive will break several popular games.
    Can't we standardize on case-sensitive volumes yet, it's the 21st century for crying out loud!

    I had the same issue.
    How did you figure this out?
    I was on the phone for almost two hours (mostly waiting) with support and they simply came up with 'Archive' and 'Store' and 'Rebuild' your system, which quite frankly would not have fixed this issue because I still would have a case-sensitive drive.
    My post is here:

  • Problem logging in after software update today

    My MacbookPro wouldn't restart automatically when I updated Leopard via software update this morning. In fact, it appeared to freeze immediately after I agreed to restart for the update (and after I had closed all open software), so I restarted it by hitting the power button. After the restart, some preference file was deleted because it kept putting me in the initial login loop for .Mac and kept asking for my info again and again after every restart. I then plugged in my Time Machine hard drive to restore from my backup just prior to the update attempt. That wouldn't move forward because my 92GB hard drive didn't have enough room to reinstall my 75GB profile.
    I started looking at what I could remove, and decided to be doubly-sure of retaining my info so I hooked my laptop up to my iMac running Leopard and copied over everything via target disk mode and firewire. That took most of the morning, after which I removed the entire contents of my laptop and told it to restore. It didn't work. Hours later (my external is a USB drive that is more than adequate unless you are moving 75GB), I got no improvement of results - no change. Thinking myself up to the task, I reconnected via target disk mode and swiped clean my whole laptop hard drive, then opened time machine on the iMac and restored the entire final backup. Now I get no system file with blinking lights at login. My Leopard install disk is at the office, and unaccessible until tomorrow. Is there any way to fix this?

    Hi...
    If you have iCloud enabled and you are syncing Safari Bookmarks that also syncs the Reading List with other devices.
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Bookmarks then reselect it.
    Relaunch Safari. Try opening the Reading List.
    If you do not use iCloud. try deleting the cache associated with Safari.
    Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db. Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    For Lion v10.7x:  To find the Home folder in OS X Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and choose Go > Library
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit then relaunch Safari. Try the Reading List

  • Please Help - Multiple problems with new BB software update

    Hi -
    Re: new software upgrade to 6.0 bundle 2534 v6.0.0.570
    I have a BB Bold 9700, via Carphone Warehouse on O2 (UK).
    I just downloaded this software update in good faith, via the desktop manager. It has changed several things I did not wish to change, some of them without any explanation as to how to revert to what I had before.
    One thing it has done is duplicate all my calendar entries, using different email addresses as default calendar addresses. I never had this with the previous software. Also, I am having trouble entering a new calendar entry on a day where there is already an "all day" entry.
    I guess the more we rely on these little machines, the more we suffer when things go wrong. Does anyone have any clues as to what to do ? Carphone Warehouse could not help and accessing anyone at BB seems impossible.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    To reply to your responses, in order:
    Nothing -- I just discovered the problems and came here to....
    ... Express my frustrations (aka "throw a tantrum") and seek feedback from others who may be experiencing the same issues;
    Yes, I checked the wifi settings and nothing has visibly changed, and no, I haven't received ANY prompts from Apple about app upgrades -- and before you ask, yes, my iPad is registered with Apple with me as the owner;
    The decision to cut the power was one of the moronic moves that bother me, as it renders the device useless for the growing number of photographers looking to give Apple their MONEY to use it; and
    I should not have to reset the network settings just because Apple can't get the bugs out of an update before they issue it.

  • Problems with waking after firmware update ...

    Hi ya'll - quick question.
    Did the latest firmware update last night and have noticed that waking the computer from sleep has become a problem, maybe once every three times I try to wake it? The backlight visibly turns on and illuminates the black screen, but the password box dosen't ever pop up, leaving me with a plain cursor. I'll try to hit random buttons (not that I think it'll help, but you know) and the 'Funk' sound plays, so I know the computer is working and is on. I have to hold the power button and restart it everytime. Any reason this might be happening now, after the update? It used to every now and then, and had sllooow wake times before the update, the latter of which has been fixed. The update was performed right and completed itself, etc.
    Thanks for any help!

    i also have problems waking it up since the efi firmware update! i primarily use the macbook only with an exernal display and wake it up by plugging in the power, lan, display and usb connectors, i.e. quite often, i don't even open the lid. since the firmware update, i regularly get a light blue screen and nothing happens. i then have to restart it through the power button as well.
