10.4.10 able to make clones just fine

Earlier this week, I can't find the the thread now, I reported I had trouble making a clone with 10.4.10 on my iMac Intel Core2Duo. Well that has been fixed now with simply booting off the Disk Warrior 4.0 installation disk and repairing the directory. Now with Superduper, I'm able to clone my iMac to a Cooldrives case such as this one:
http://www.cooldrives.com/combo-sata-drive-enclosure-firewire-and-usb.html
With an internal Western Digital SATA WD5000YS WD RE2 hard drive.
No this is not an advertisement, just a statement of what works. And I didn't have to wipe clean my previous clone, Superduper's Smart Update worked great, and I'm posting while booted from that clone.
So this is at least one good indication that clones do work on 10.4.10.
Just thought I'd pass the good news.

Another plug for SuperDuper and spart update. I had tried to save a couple of hours off an Archive and Install on my iMac with the super-slow built in slot Superdrive by installing from an old 48x Pioneer superdrive in a cheapo USB 2 case. Bad idea, it failed almost half way through that way.
The good news was I have a 500 gig WD My Book firewire drive and do daily backups to a sparseimage there with SuperDuper and was able to boot from my OS X install disks that came with the iMac and use the Apple Disk Utility to restore my entire boot volume from that sparseimage. To make sure no garbage from the failed OS X reinstall was left behind I selected "Erase, then copy". Talk about not using a net. But after the restore was finished my iMac rebooted perfectly back to the state it was in that morning when Super Duper automatically ran its daily update.
So not only does cloning work from 10.4.10, so does restoring.

    I want to upgrade to snow leopard from 10.5.8. Im hesitant to proceed because I'm running iPhoto 7 and word 2004. I want to be sure these programs will still run and I won't lose my photos or the events I have ordered them by. Should i make a partition on my new Iomega external and clone it just in case? I'm running time machine and backing up all the time onto an old LaCie, and right now I have a copy of my iPhoto library on new Iomega, which I recopy every couple of weeks. I got the computer new several years ago and it came with iLife and 10.4 OS I think.

    Word 2004 is almost 10 years old, you will not be able to upgrade beyond Snow Leopard with it. IMHO you have gotten your money's worth out of the application and need to upgrade to Office for Mac 2011, this will work just fine and read your old files just fine too. What will not run beyond SL are all PowerPC (PPC) apps such as Word 2004. You will need to update, upgrade or replace any PPC based apps you want to use. I would recommend taking a little time and check for updates to each of your apps. Then open System Profiler (Applications - Utilities - System Profiler) click the Applications link on the left and then look for any PPC based apps, those are the ones that will not run. You can upgrade to SL just fine with the apps you currently have however if you want to go beyond SL (it's already 2 generations behind) you will need to update or upgrade your apps. You can take your time doing it but eventually you're going to have to begin

  • Haven't been able to make/receive calls or texts for a month

    I've had no service on my phone for a month now and haven't been able to make or receive calls or texts. I've had my phone (iphone 4) for almost a year now, one day it was fine, the next it wasn't. It literally just happened over night. My sim card works fine in other phones so i know thats not the problem.
    After an endless amount of phone calls to O2 and no solution to the problem, I've now been told that my phone isn't reading the sim card properly and my phone needs to be sent to Apple. I'd take it to a store but the nearest one is 45 miles away and I don't drive so it's not very easy to get to. Also, as i bought it from a different website and not from an apple store and don't have any proof of purchase or warranty, would they still be able to fix it for me?
    I recently went to Spain and while I was there my phone worked perfectly and I could call and text as usual, but as soon as I got back to the UK it stopped working again which suggests to me that it's nothing to do with my phone, as it was able to read the sim card fine in another country. Would I achieve anything by getting it unlocked and changing to another network?
    Has anybody encountered anything like this before or have any solutions to the problem? After a month of this i'm at my wits end!!

    Thanks for the reply. I bought the phone on november the 1st 2011 and it has worked perfectly until the end of last month when it started saying 'no service', and no this didn't occur during an update or restore. I don't make many calls or send texts a lot so I don't know when exactly when it did happen but I know it was working on september the 28th and it wasn't on september the 30th, I didnt update, restore or anything. When I bought it, (cant remember exactly where i bought it but it was an online shop), it was sold as being on the O2 network.
    I contacted the network and they said they could unlock it, so maybe i'll try it on the Orange network instead as I managed to use that without any problems in Spain.
    Thank you for the answer to my other questions as well.

  • On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when on calls using internet based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. Voice memos work too and have already tried different SIMs

    On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when I make/receive calls using internet-based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. I have tried recording my voice using voice memos - this works. And have already tried different SIM cards but the problem persists.
    I have taken my phone to an authorized Apple service center, where they restored my phone to factory settings, but still facing the same issue. They service center directed me to Apple Customer Care Hotline, where I have now spent 3+ hours explaining my issue and yet no one can resolve it. The easy answer if to replace the phone - and since it is out of warranty, I am expected to pay for it.
    Additionally, the customer service has been so rude and confrontational that it has completely changed my view of Apple and its customer focus. I am a disappointed and angry customer today - people would be surprised to hear just how rude customer service was including making statements such as "Apple doesnt make infallible products, that's why warranty is needed for our products" and that "every product undergoes a problem at some stage, so do ours!" There goes whatever confidence I had...
    My concern is simple - if no one at Apple and / or its CS hotline is able to address my issue comprhensively and keep telling me that they have never encountered a precedent before, then with what right can they expect me to pay for a replacement?! I am NOT here to fund Apple's research into their product faults and manufacturing.
    And even though a customer is out of warranty, is it too much to expect an Apple product to work well for at least a 'reasonable' period of time. My phone is less than 18 months old and has been facing this issue for the past 2 months - surely the longevity of Apple products is more than 18 months!
    Just a sad sad day for an Apple customer, compounded by unjustifiably rude and aggressive staff. And still no resolution to my problem.

    I am having the same issue - with my last 2 iPhone 4's. My first handset each time I was on a call wether it was up to my ear or on loud speaker, the call would automatically mute even though the mute button wouldn't show up as highlighted. Pressing the mute button on and off during the call doesn't fix it either. I rang Apple and asked what some of their trouble shooting solutions were. I got told that it might be a software issue and to install the latest software update. This failed. I then got told to uninstall the software on the phone and do a complete restore. This also failed. After trying the troubleshooting suggestions, I took the phone into my provider and they sent me out a new phone within a week under warranty claiming it was a hardware issue and probably just a "glitch" with that particular phone. This was not the case....
    After receiving my second iPhone 4, I was hopeful that it would work. For the first couple of days, making/receiving calls was not an issue. Until after about a week, the same problem started again. In one instance I had to hang up and call back 4 times and the call would still automatically mute after about 5 seconds. Also on the second handset, the main camera located on the back of the phone has red and blue lines running through it and can't take a decent picture. So back to the store I go to get another replacement - Again.
    For a phone that is rated highly and as a keen Apple product purchaser, I am a bit disappointed with the experience I have had with the iPhone 4. Let's hope they find a fix sometime soon because this is becoming a bit beyond a joke.....!!

  • HT1937 I am not able to make a call from my phone.

    Sir,
    this is a very peculiar kind of problem I am facing and it has made my life terrible because not even your service providers are able to help me. I bought my phone from (Maharashtra-Mumbai, India) and my network operator is (airtel). My phone works all fine when am in mumbai but as soon s i leave mumbai I am not able to make an otgoing call from my phone. Everything else works just fine but cannot make an outgoing call. I have tried multiple sim cards of multiple network thinking that i might be a network issue but the problem prevails in all the network. I do not know where to go and what to do. I have an iphone5 and have been an iphone user since last 4 years but not i feel i need to change my brand as no on e is able to help me. I am told to pay (Rs. 19000) if I want a replacement but i am also told that they do not guarantee me if the problem would not prevail in that. I thought able believes in customer relationship management but it seems to be a fallacy. I can name like 10 consumers who use apple product because of my reccomendation and not I myself have no trust in the kind of customer service being provided by your company. Please help me to solve this problem. I presently stay in (Assam-tinsuki, India) and there is no aplle stor or any kind of support out here from your side, I had gone all the way to mumbai thinkng they might help but had found no support. please look into the matter soon and provide me with a handset that works all fine.

    This is entirely a carrier issue.  If your carrier (airtel) doesn't provide service outside of Mumbia, this has nothing to do with your iPhone.
    i feel i need to change my brand

  • Not able to make or receive calls.

    First, I should say this is the first time in almost 10 years that I've needed to contact Verizon for help with my service,
    Now that is out of the way, I need to say the options for getting help is pretty lousy. Customer service that isn't 24-7 given that I feel with what I pay even with my work discount it should be mandatory, no online chat for when your phone isn't working and in my case I don't have a land line so if this doesn't get me squared away I'll have to waste my time standing in line at a Verizon store!
    Now for my issue, last night, 9/27 around 12AM, my phone, an HTC Incredible, disconnected my call and now I can't make or receive any calls. When I try to make a call, even to Verizon support I get the "Verizon can't complete the call..." with an announcement code of 3/28-5 (3 switch 28 dash 5) or I just get a busy signal and data seems to work fine (although slow as always, which is usually bearable).

    Oh no! Not being able to make or receive calls is a huge inconvenience. I would be glad to get this resolved ASAP!
    Have you removed and reinserted the battery? This will force the device to search for the current towers in your area. Is this happening on any other devices that you know of? Please dial *228 send then  option 1. Do you get the same error message? How many bars of signal are you getting? Please let me know if you are still experiencing these issues.
    We have several ways to get a hold of us if you can't use your phone. You can call us on another device at 800-922-0204 option 3 for tech support. Or you can visit us on www.verizonwireless.com and under contact us you can send us a email or you will see a link for live chat if available.

  • Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube?  I am able to make phone calls, but otherwise my iPhone is silent.  It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

    Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube?  I am able to make phone calls and hear everything just fine.  but otherwise my iPhone is silent.  It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

    Not knowing what steps were included in "all the troubleshooting possible with Apple people," I'll suggest you give the phone a chance to reprovision your cellular account.
    First turn off Wi-Fi. Then power off your phone. Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the power off slider. Then slide to power off. Turn the phone back on. After the phone starts watch to see if No Serive is displayed. Hopefully after 15-30 seconds that will change to the name of your cellular service provider and finally indicate LTE or 4G as well as include some dots indicating signal strength. You can then turn Wi-Fi back on.

  • Am I supposed to be able to make calls while iphone is locked?

    Hi, Everyone!!!
    I locked (as in password-locked) my iphone and put a 4-digit password on it like you're supposed to. Well, anyway, when I press the home button it asks me for my 4 digit password. But I can just press the "emergency call" button on the bottom left and call ANY number I want...not just emergency numbers. I called my co-worker a moment ago. I googled this "issue" and saw where it does that for others as well. So, is this a bug or is it supposed to be like this? I know my email and stuff is still protected, but I would think that password-protecting my phone would be able to prevent people from making calls with my phone, which it apparently doesn't do.
    thoughts?
    Thanks, everyone!

    \Troy,
    The passcode lock is not intended to prevent people from making phone calls. It is made to protect your information. If you do not want people to be able to make calls from your phone unless authorized, you can set a SIM pin, and will need to enter that every time you turn the phone on.
    You can find more information about SIM pins here:

So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?

    You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
    You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
    What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do?
