10.4.6 Won't reboot - similar but different problem from others

I'll pile on here. I envy those of you who were able to safe boot. Mine freezes @ grey apple with no spinning gear icon. I archive/installed (used the combo update) (repaired permissions beforehand) and we're now well past 20 minutes of grey apple and no sounds of spinning HDs inside. Am absolutely baffled. I'm fortunate enough to have a second internal drive with a fully functional 10.4.5 system on it so I'm not hooped that way but would sure love to solve this problem.Any ideas.

Try to troubleshoot just the bad internal with no external attached using this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106464
I know it says 10.3.9 and earlier, however many have used it to successfully resolve similar boot issues in 10.4 and above.

I have a related but different problem... I prefer that the photos/events on my iPhone and iPad be in "date created" order. Does anyone know if this is possible? Apple...please give us some options.

This response is a little late as I just read about your problem. I have a 2012 Dodge Charger and a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and both worked flawlessly with the iPhone 5s my wife and I had. However, we just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and Uconnect will receive calls but you cannot answer them. You can callout successfully, however. the annoyance being the inability to answer incoming calls in the HandsFree mode.

This is a solution for duplicates

or use a specialized software, Duplifinder

Advanced user tips ... but first backup your iPhoto library
If you want to get rid of your original photo files and leave them in iPhoto, thus freeing up much hard drive space, you can use these commands in Terminal:
mkdir ~/.Trash/iPhoto-Originals
cd ~/"Pictures/iPhoto Library/Modified/"
find . -type f -exec mv "../Originals/{}" ~/.Trash/iPhoto-Originals/ \;
Type these commands carefully and it should work!

Comparing very similar but different strings ...

Hi
I have two strings that are supposed to be equals and I want know if the string are:
a) equals
b) almost equals
c) completely different
Example pairs maybe: "Syncopation" & "Sincopation"; "Mike & Rich" & "Rich & Mike"
Is such a library anywhere or maybe a algorithm to write it myself?

HT2731 Dear friends. My name is kamugisha Thierry and I am in Rwanda. I have been in a debate competition and I won an iPad. But the problem I have got is that to create my apple ID is not possible because Rwanda my country is not registered among the sto

I wanted to know what advice and how I will be using my iPad. I wanted to how I will get different apps. Is it possible that I will get them in Ouganda store where registered saying that am from? Thanks. You can use my e-mail for answers. Thank you very much.

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Quicktime won't open .mov but it works on other mac computers

I filmed some footage in .mov on a JVC camera, and imported it into my macbook pro. When I tried to open it, it gave me an error saying it doesn't recognize that file. I know it's not a file problem because it opened just fine on other mac computers. Please help!

I should note that what I am seeing is really inconsistent. MOV files from some devices (e.g., a Canon DSLR) work just fine no matter which drive I put them on. MOV files created by an older version of IOS seem to work. Others, not so. And MOV files created on some cheaper cameras don't work unless on the C or D drive.

I can't access my iTunes account info from my own laptop, but I can from other computers.

I can perform a basic log in on iTunes. I can authorize my laptop. But when I click the Account link and re-enter my password, iTunes won't accept it. I tried to access my Account page on my friend's desktop -which wasn't even authorized- and I got in right away. I have exchanged more e-mails in the past 4 weeks with iTunes Support than I ever have with my own mother, and this issue is still giving me teeth-grinding fits. At this point I can't renew paid app subscriptions or purchase paid apps from either my laptop or my phone. It seems like it might have started after I installed the last iTunes update, but I'm not sure.
I have:
-Completely un and re-installed iTunes
-Had my password reset by Tech Support more times than I can count
-Had my laptop de-authorized by Support and re-authorized it
and this issue persists.
I haven't met a computer problem that made me want to put my head through a wall this badly since I owned a DELL!!
Ideas? Thoughts? Anyone...?
Thanks,
RR

Okay this was the reply i got from Apple support.......
Dear Stephen,
Welcome to iTunes Store Customer Support. My name is Thilak and it would be a pleasure for me to assist you today.
I'm sorry to hear that you can't connect to the iTunes Store. I realize how concerning a situation like this can be and I would be more than happy to provide you with as much information as I can to help.
Stephen, I would like to inform that I have verified that the iTunes Store is functioning and accepting connections, which indicates that the issue is related to your internet connection, local network, or your local computer itself.
Okay everything was going fine until i updated my software with the latest Lion update and my other macbook pro works fine (still on snow leopard). Come on Apple man up and admit the Lion upgrade wasn't ready!!!!! and i didn't say i couldn't connect to the itunes store i told him i couldn't access my account information!!!

ITUNES 7 Still won't open, even after trying solutions from other topics

I have tried the following things:
Uninstall/Reinstall
Quicktime as a stand alone
Virus protection off
Trying to start Itunes with a CD
System Reboot.
None of these things have worked. Can anyone help me.

Okay,
I HAVE FOUND A WORKAROUND
This is definitely not a solution, and Apple needs to address this problem immediately, but this will do it until they pull the proverbial lead out of their proverbial apple-holes...
Right-click on the iTunes shortcut, and select "Run As"
Run it as a different user, such as Administrator. If you do not have any other users, go to Control Panel > Users and make a new user.
If you run it as a different user, it seems to work fine...
Note: The iTunes Music Library is different per user, so you may need to import all of your music again

I cannot send email from Outlook 2011 (for Mac). But can send from other applications

I have Outlook 2011 for Mac - I have validated the settings and up until yesterday could send and receive emails using my .mac account.
I can send using icloud and mail (I use Outlook for work purposes) and can send in outlook using my work accounts.
My settings
Incoming server - imap.mail.me.com
Use SSL to connect checked.
Outgoing server - smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked (port 587)
use SSL to connect checked
authentication - Username and password.
I have rebuilt the database - no effect.
I continue to get the error
"Mail could not be sent
The server for account "mac" returned the error. 5.7.8. Bad Username or password (Authentication failed..)" Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try rentering your password"
I have validated my username and password and rentered them both.
I have emptied the outbox and retried but nothing works.
Thanks for the help.

Update - I now have it working.
am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
outgoing server - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked - port now 587
on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".

Can't transfer video to iPod either, but different problem. :(

So I just got my iPod and am trying to put mpgs that I've got on my computer on the pod. I know that I'm supposed to put the file in iTunes and then convert the selection, but when I do I get an error message (-3000, which is an Invalid Component ID). I've just started messing with this but any advice or help would be great. Thanks.

Try Opening the file in question with Quicktime. Once Open, see if it plays normally, then rewind it to the beginning. Go to Export (not sure if it's under File or Edit) and export the file to iPod format. Takes a few minutes to convert and export. Then transfer it to your iPod the usual way...

Airport Express, can't stream from my macbook but it works from other devic

Also, the new AirPort Utility can't see the Airport Express either, and the option for multiple speakers has vanished from the bottom right corner in iTunes.

URL not reachable from OM 2007 but reachable fine from other browsers

Hi,
I am running into this unique issue where OM 2007 fails in reaching out to a URL, which is accessible from browsers normally.
I have this Monitor built as a custom one , built with probe action "Microsoft.SystemCenter.WebApplication.UrlProbe". I am using condition filters as "RequestResults/RequestResult[@Id="$Config/RequestID$"]/BasePageData/ErrorCode"
equals "0" or does not equal "0".
Is this a known issue, do we have a workaround for this??
Thanks,
Kandi.

Hi Kandiraja,
If this is a custom monitor using a powershell script you might also need to specify proxy configuration inside script.
I found an example of this here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/571429/powershell-web-requests-and-proxies
Untested code from post:
$user = $env:username
$webproxy = (get-itemproperty 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings').ProxyServer
$pwd = Read-Host "Password?" -assecurestring
$proxy = new-object System.Net.WebProxy
$proxy.Address = $webproxy
$account = new-object System.Net.NetworkCredential($user,[Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto([Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($pwd)), "")
$proxy.credentials = $account
$url = "http://stackoverflow.com"
$wc = new-object system.net.WebClient
$wc.proxy = $proxy
$webpage = $wc.DownloadData($url)
$string = [System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetString($webpage)
Difficult to say what the issue as this is a custom monitor.
Cheers,
Martin
