10.4.3 installed, but now weird malfunctions

After finally installing 10.4.3 on my dual 2Ghz G5 I'm finding the following weird malfunctions.
CD's from PC's that play fine on my wife's 10.4.2 loaded mac will not mount
on my 10.4.3 machine, although they show up under disk warrior
The Date and Time won't display in the menu bar any more, nor will the
Diplay preferences, a spinning beach ball appears when you put the mouse where they should appear.
I have 4 FW800 drives daisy chained together and now have extreme difficulty in making them all mount, keep having to unplug and replug, turn on and off until they finally all mount, a real pain.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen this kind of thing.
Thanks,

Terry,
You may erase a drive with zero option, it's not required, but can make writes more reliable as it rewrites the bad sector map on the drive.
Once it's done one time it's not needed generally anymore really for that drive.
So that should save you some time and effort with all these attempted installs.
I think either your Tiger install disk is funky or your hard drive is failing.

There is no Windows for Boot Camp. just buy a copy of Windows.

How do I upgrade the ram?
The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a machine supposedly limited to 4 GB.
Crucial
Other World Computing
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X - Yosemite
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

Firefox dumped me out. I uninstalled and tried to re-install, but now it won't re-install. I assume Microsoft Explorer is somehow sensing this and dumping me. Firefox used to work perfectly until recently. How can I re-install?

I downloaded Firefox and it worked perfectly for awhile. It then dumped me out and my screen showed a blue background with a "critical error" message. It kept dumping me out, so I uninstalled Firefox and tried to re-install. Now it won't even re-install. As the re-install process almost finishes, I get dumped and the same "critical error" screen appears. I assume there is something with Microsoft or Explorer that is sensing what I'm trying to do and stopping me. How can I get Firefox to download again?

I love a good anti-Microsoft story, but this isn't likely to be Redmond Sabotage.
If you got a blue screen, you might be near the end of this computer (dying hardware) or need to reinstall your OS (reinstall Windows). Windows gets "clogged" and needs reinstalled ever six months to a couple years, depending on your use. System restore might help you here.
You might have malware that's trashed critical system files (or just corrupted something which should be removed with a Firefox uninstall but can't), but [http://www.google.com/#q=blue+screen+of+death the blue screen is never a good sign]. System restore may or may not help in that case.
Try installing something else and see if it succeeds. [http://openoffice.org/ Open Office] is a great application suite, though it's a bit large to download. [http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/ SpyBot] is only around 17MB IIRC.
Best of luck!

Fully installed but now stuck.

Hi,
I have just installed the Developer version of ColdFusion 9.0.1 on one web site on IIS7/Vista Ultimate. Initially I had a 404 error but I followed the instructions on http://www.codecurry.com/2009/09/installing-coldfusion-on-iis-7.html, now when I try to access the site on http://127.0.0.12/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm I get a 500 - Internal Server Error. I have also added the Script Handler Mappings for .cfc and .cfm as recommended on http://forums.iis.net/t/1005992.aspx.
The core of the problem appears to be that on running wsconfig to try to add a ColdFusion Web Server. However, when I run wsconfig I get the response: "Could not connect to and JRun/ColdFusion servers on host 127.0.0.12." when I choose 127.0.0.12 as the JRun Host.
I have looked in the services and I have four ColdFusion services running: ColdFusion 9 .NET Service, ColdFusion 9 Application Server, ColdFusion 9 Search Server and ColdFusion 9 Solr Service. I am assuming that one of these is the ColdFusion 9 server that the "Could not connect" alert message says must be running (in any case there are no services labelled as ColdFusion that are stopped).
I have tried running both with my firewall stopped and with it running but observing the active ports (and none is blocked). In both cases the problem persists.
Now I have run out of ideas except to say that I can connect to http://127.0.0.12/CFIDE/administrator/test.htm perfectly successfully so this is not a folder permissions issue.
This should have no relevance to ColdFusion but I have IIS successfully running with .NET and PHP already. The only impact I can see is that on installing 9.0.1, there was a recommendation to turn off certain windows features in order to take full advantage of the changes but when I looked at changing those settings, as warning message came up that ASP.NET needed them so I left them in place. As it was only a recommendation, I assume that it should still allow ColdFusion to work (if not as efficiently as possible).
Can anyone either guide me or point me towards relevant online information to help me towards a functioning ColdFusion installation because right now it's just dead weight slowing my computer down and I'm keen to get this going?
Many thanks.

Well, first, you probably shouldn't be using 127.0.0.12, which almost certainly doesn't resolve to any host at all. Instead, you should be using 127.0.0.1, which is the default loopback address for your own machine. Or, you can use the name "localhost", which is typically already mapped to that IP address in your hosts file. If you've actually used 127.0.0.12 (rather than making a typo here) that is the most likely cause of your problem.
Second, those instructions from Codecurry are no longer entirely relevant. ColdFusion 9.0.1 does not require that you install IIS 6 Compatibility, although I believe it does still require you to install ISAPI.
Third, you can save yourself a lot of headache by not even hooking CF up to IIS on your development workstation, unless you need to use a specific IIS feature during your CF development. CF includes its own web server, and no connector is required for that. You can configure that post-install using the instructions here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/adv_development/config_builtin_webserver/
During the install, I generally recommend that people choose the built-in web server, then configure IIS or Apache after the install, but it's easy enough to go back and turn this on anyway. By default, CF's web server will listen on port 8500 or 8300 depending on whether you chose standalone or full JRun version.
Finally, the CF services don't really slow your computer down unless you're actually using them. If they're just waiting in the background for requests, they have very little effect. I used to turn my CF services on and off depending on whether I needed them, but frankly it's not worth the effort.

Backed up before clean install but now can't see my files?

I got Time Machine to do a full backup of my Mac Mini to my Time Capsule prior to doing a clean install of Mountain Lion.
All went well with the install but how do I access all the files I backed up?

Was the entire folder copied including the iTunesLibrary.itl file?

Itunes installed but now i cannot find it?

I have done the itunes setup and it said it successfully installed but there is no itunes icon on my desktop ?! where is it?!!

If you registered with Adobe, you will find your license key in your account information.

Got CS2 To Install but now getting notified that "user name, organization name or serial number is missing or invalid."

After much frustration, got CS2 installed to replace my now-unsupported CS1. Went to open Adobe Photoshop and got your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization name or serial number is missing or invalid.

First, Ganesh, your response isn't helpful because that link just explains why I had to download CS2 in the first place. Your response is the same that I got through repeated interactions with Adobe support personnel. If you're not going to provide a solution, then do not reply at all.
Second, GautamBehl, that doesn't explain why I was getting the notification when I tried to open Photoshop after successfully installing the CS2. Perhaps I should have been clear and explained that I was installing the "3 disc" CS2 design suite.
Here's the workaround I discovered. I downloaded Photoshop CS2 separately and had no problem. I would suspect that doing likewise with the other programs would get a similar result. I would expect that Adobe would fix the problem with the CS2 suite of programs, but according to my ineractions with Adobe support, are more interested in trying to sell recent software to users that they have just frustrated.

IOS 6 installed but now it says no Sim card installed....what the??

Ok I believe I got iOS 6 installed finally...... But........I start the ohone up now....it wants me to pick language and then country which I do....then it says there is no Sim card installed ....say what?.....its been in there for 4 years......whats up with this.....does Apple have a cure for this?
I have removed it a few times and reinstalled it....same thing

Most likely your phone was previously hacked to carrier unlock. When you updated, the hack was removed and the phone re-locked to its original carrier. It will now operate only with a SIM card from that carrier.

Snow leopard installed, but now unable to open documents????

Dear all,
Has anyone experienced more problems with snow leopard? I have installed it, but it seems that I am less able to open attached documents when people e-mail me and I have now also problems opening older Leopard documents (pages).
What can I do to resolve this?
Thanks,
Myra

I just installed the upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.2. When I try to open a .doc file in an email attachment IWork(pages) opens by default. I dont have iWork Pages and dont need it. When I right click on the document in the email and select either Neoffice or Appleworks or text edit, the file still tries to open in Pages. It wont open in any other program But of course I cant use it unless I buy it. I dont think I should be forced to buy iWork when I dont need it. Any suggestions?
This just started with the latest upgrade to Snow Leopard.

BI installed but now what?

Hi all,
I installed all parts of the Oracle App Server 10G (infra, midtier, and BI) and have been using the portal without problem. Now I'd like to pull in Discoverer portlets for my portal, but I cannot figure out how to do it. I tried to register Discoverer as a portal provider but that did not work. When I log in to the Enterprise Manager, I see Intra and Midtier, but I don't see the BI part.
What step am I missing here??
thanks,
christine

Hi Christine
Before you can see Discoverer (OBI) in OEM alongside the Infra and Midtier you need to attach it. First of all lets make sure the Discoverer components are up and running. To do this, follow this workflow (the following assumes you are using Windows XP so you will have to insert the appropriate command if you are on a different platform):
1. Launch Settings | Control Panel
2. Select Administrative Tools | Services
3. Expand the box and look for the services that begin with the word Oracle
4. There are two that launch OBI, these are [OBI_HOME]ProcessManager and [OBI_HOME]ASControl. These need to be started in that order but only after you have started the Application Server database and your infrasructure.
If the Discoverer components are up and running you should be able to launch the OBI OEM URL. It should be the same as the one that you use to launch your normal OEM except try replacing the 1810 with 1812, or vice versa depending which one you installed first. To attach the OBI mid tier to your application server farm, follow this workflow:
1. Launch the OBI OEM
2. Enter your IAS_ADMIN userid and password
3. On the top of the screen, click the Infrasructure link
4. Under Identity management, click Configure and add the name of the server and the port for the OID you are using on the infrastructure - port is normally 389
5. Under Default Metadata Repository, click configure and add the metadata repository
6. Now when you launch your normal OEM URL you should see Discoverer as part of the farm. If this is true you should also be able to add portlets and get the portlet provider configured.
Hope this helps
Regards
Michael

I downloaded Mavericks while I had an Age of Empires disk inserted; before installing, I saw a notice that Age of Empires won't run with Mavericks so I did not install, but now, using every trick I know the disk will not eject. Advice?t

Why won't Age of Empires disk not eject after downloading but not installin Mavericks?

here is pretty much every option:
Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

I exported my bookmarks to do a clean install, but now my exported file is nothing but pages of text. How can i retrieve my bookmarks?

I backed up my firefox bookmars, and the file that came out of it is no specific file type. Even in the properties, it just says "File type: File".
So now i'm trying to restore my bookmarks, but I can't open that file. If i try opening the file itself with firefox or any other browser for that matter, I get long pages of text. It does contain my bookmarks, but it's really hard to read. What can i do to fix this?

That is a JSON backup.<br />
You need to rename the file and add a .json (lowercase) file extension to make Firefox recognize the file as a JSON backup.
*Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Restore > Choose File
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
Note that restoring a JSON backup will replace all existing bookmarks.
