Unable to load OS X.3 on iMac G3

I bought a used iMac G3, 450 mHz, 1 Gig hard drive. It came with 9.2 (which is now gone). I installed X.3 on a tower G3 earlier in the day with 9.2 on it... it went fine. Went to the iMac... put the CD in, go through all the beginning stuff, starts loading... after about 10 or 15 minitues, a black box comes up on the screen and says I need to restart my computer. I don't even get to the 2nd of the 3 disks to install. Any ideas? I've tried partitioning the HD, that didn't work. The computer doesn't give me any messages regarding partitioning or updating the firmware. It's driving me CRAZY!!! HELP!!
Thanks!

Hello Again!
If you can get it to boot from the install cd reformat the drive in disk utility and use the zero option and then try a reinstallation. Ram could be a problem as OSX is very picky and you may have to remove some ram that may not be up to spec. Sorry but that's usually a trial and error thing until you figure out which stick is causing the problem. I'd try zeroing the disk first. Tom

    I've run the repair permissions utility, within the disk utility several times on the volume.
    I've run the verify disk utility on the volume - no problems reported.
    No other application issues that I've noticed; only quicktime is broken.
    Not sure what to do next.   If it gave me a clue about which "nib" file it was after I could go check it.

    Am I missing files in that directory structure??

    Did you repair permissions & restart after the
    update?
    I tried repairing the permissions and QuickTime still failed to launch; however, I didn't think to restart the machine. But then I fired up TechTool and it found problems with the volume structure, repaired it, and all is good now. So I'm not sure if TechTool fixed the problem or if it was eventually restarting after repairing the permissions.

  • Unable to load CS5.5 on my 10.9.5 iMac

    Unable to load CS5.5 on my 10.9.5 iMac window pops when I try to open 'Could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available'. This is a Student and Teacher copy. Can someone help me with this?

    It is not clear if you understand what that message is indicating.  It is telling you that you need to identify the older version of whatever CS5.5 upgrade you are installing to prove that you qualify for the upgrade.  This could be CS5, CS4, etc.

  • Unable to load Flash 9 on my Intel MacBook Pro

    Unable to load Flash 9 on my Intel MacBook Pro but can on my
    Intel iMac. I spoke with a Tech from the Mac Store service area and
    was told that there in a thread on this issue but I can't find it.
    The basic issue is that I am able to load Adobe Flash Player
    9 on my Intel iMac but not on my Intel MacBook Pro and I'm unable
    to determain why. I tryed uninstalling and reinstalling three times
    and found no difference.
    If someone could help me I'd be thankful.

    I bought the $29 version of Snow Leopard (not the kosher way of doing things, i know.
    If you read the license agreement, there's actually no difference between what's allowed with the $29 copy and the $169 boxed set. The only difference is that the boxed set also includes iLife and iWork. There is also, despite what some will have you believe, nothing in the license agreement that requires Leopard to be pre-installed except in the case of the $10 disk purchased as part of the Up-to-Date program (for folks who bought a machine shortly before SL was released). So, you're not being bitten by some technical requirement for Leopard to be present.
    I get a flashing folder with a question mark. My disk drive makes some crazy noises as well, and it seems to start running fast, then slowing down. I think it may have caused a minor scratch on the disk as well.
    Sounds like it's possible the drive could be failing, though that's impossible to say for sure remotely. One man's crazy noises are another man's normal state of operations. Do other DVDs work in your drive?
    I'll also need to do an "Archive & Install" since there are tons of important files on this machine.
    *DO NOT* attempt to install a system update on this machine unless you have good backups! If something goes wrong, you're screwed if you didn't have a backup. Hopefully, you have not reached that point already... I'm unclear on whether your machine is no longer able to boot, or if it's only having trouble when you try to boot from the SL disk.
    If your machine is still functional, your first priority before doing *+anything else+* should be to make at least two backups. See my [Mac Backup Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/backups> for assistance with this.
    If your machine can't boot anymore, let us know and we'll offer some troubleshooting tips. And don't try to do anything else with it until you've consulted with some expert, whether here or at an Apple Store or somewhere else.

  • Problem with FLASH 9 - unable to load plug-in

    At a website request to update to Flash 9 to allow my ibook to visualize soime content, I downloaded the installer from ADOBE and tried to update. Now every time a website has a Flash component I get the following message:
    UNABLE TO LOAD PLUG IN
    "The page “XYZ" attempted to load an Internet plug-in named “Shockwave Flash”, but the plug-in failed to load successfully."
    I downloaded the Flash uninstaller, run it, installed again version 9 but I still get the same error message.
    Then I thought some Safari files could have been damaged, but when I download the installer for Safari 1.3.2 and tried to reinstall it, I get a message saying that "this software can't be installed on this system".
    Questions: any suggestions? is Flash 9 compatible with MAC OS 10.3.9? Is it a Safari problem (my current version: 1.3.2) Thanks a lot.

  • Unable to load Flash player

    On my IMac, OSX 10.5.8, Lightroom running 64 bit I am not able to see any Flash galleries in the Web window - "Unable to load Flash player". Changing to 32 bit solves the problem, but was not the idea of creating a 64 bit version i suppose.
    Tried uninstalling Flash Player and then reinstalling it - did not change anything.Tried creating a new account - same result.
    I am also running a beta version of Lightroom 3 on my MacBook Pro in 64 bit, same OSX, and it does NOT have the same problem. Flash galleries showes up just fine.
    Any ideas what to do other than wait for Flash Player 64 bit?

    Flash Player is integrated into IE for Windows 8 & 8.1 by Microsoft. Since it's a "plug-in" and NOT a program, you'll NEVER find it listed as a program. It's located in C/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash and C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash.
    The problem with IE11 is that Microsoft not only screwed up the code, but they refuse to admit it doesn't work. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Lightroom 3 - Web module - Unable to load Flash Player

    Running to most uptodate version of Lightroom 3 - on OS X 10.6.4 also fully up to date.  Have downloaded and installed the latest Flash Player from the site.  This problem seems only to be on my 2.8ghz iMac with 2 gig of RAM.  Lightroom 3 and flash galleries work great on my 2ghz Macbook with 2 gig of RAM.
    When accessing the web module and trying to use one of the flash templates I either get a blank black screen or a white one with the error message of Unable to Load Flash Player.  From there I hit the Preview in Browser button and a flash gallery did come up in Safari, just not in Lightroom.
    Does anyone else have this problem, and more importantly how did they solve it.........

    Replying to myself.... I solved the problem by creating a new User Account in my OS.  Solved the Lightroom problem and also a problem with Mini Bridge in Photoshop CS5, where it wouldn't open Bridge.

  • Open Directory: "Unable to load replica list"

Today I finally wanted to fix the problem and go all Open Directory. But the Open Directory service was shut off when I opened the server software. I tried to turn it on but got a message saying "Unable to load replica list". I updated the software to the latest 3.1 but are still having the same issue. I never had any replica list, I only had a standard one from the start, but it seems I can't do anyhing there now.

    Hello Kiran,
    I did a few tests again yesterday, and it was really a stupid mistake from myside.
    The error message did mean, that there wasn't enough space.
    It isn't the authority issue, it was a leak of space.
    FYI, the complete DB-Size of Source System is required - NOT JUST RESERVED SPACE!!!

    Solution would be easy ...like if the Essbase Agent is stopped using the services.msc (services panal)on Windows while a process is currently running, or if there has been an abnormal termination of the Essbase Agent, orphaned ESSSVR processes can be left. Shuting down the Essbase server using ESSCMD or MaxL then Check Task Manager confirm the ESSBASE.exe process later by this ESSSVR.exe processes should end if still NO then Do an "End Process" on any ESSSVR.exe process that is still running. Start the Essbase service and start the application.
    ESSSVR.exe is process which keep application Alive (bad thing is if u have many applications running similarlly u have same numbe of ESSSVr .exe will be running in task master ..but u cant find out which one belongs to which application :( )
    Reasons
    looking at your error i can say , First of all you need to know what is Lock in EAS ? and what locks exist
    (right-click on Essbase Servername, EDIT->LOCK and EDIT->LOCKED OBJECTS, and if your database/outline appears in there, unlock it.)
    Check any antivirus- and backup software that may be scanning / running on your Essbase folders as that can lock the files and any ESSSVR process stays when the Essbase Agent is stopped
    More over another chance of getting error is when you have you page and index files in different location and rest otl, rep.csc script in another drive .. usually while taking back up in OTL,csc drive u do get created index file and page file even u have page and index file in diffrent drive so doe to this u get this error unable to load database
    Hope this give u some idea
