10.5.6 Combo Update not allowing me to select the HD for the install

I have downloaded the Combo update from Apple's site [around 650Mb].
-Double Clicking the .dmg mounts it.
-Double clicking on the mounted icon runs the installer.
-After clicking 'Next' a couple of times I have to select the location of the install
-The given option is only of my Mac Hard-disk [I dont have any partitions, nor windows via bootcamp]
-On selecting the HD, I get a message statin that I need to select some other loacation for the install to continue.
I have no idea what to do & I don't want to mess up my macbook.
Please help...

Well I did repair the permissions & backed up. Then I ran the combo update from a pendrive, & it seems to have worked out. So far no problems...hope it stays that way [fingers crossed!]
Thank you.

I purchased Adobe Acrobat X Pro two days ago and cannot receive my serial number; your form will not allow me to select my State for address-I have spent four hours of frustration

Acrobat X Pro has a flawed serial number application form at the point where it asks for your State, the first time. I will not allow me
to complete the form and receive my Serial Number.@

I purchased it from my University bookstore and the attending clerk was no better informed than was I.
The form is required to be infilled in order to receive the serial number necessary for installation of the software
After five hours of trying, I was able to overcome the flaw in the form, as it appeared on the Acrobat website, and
complete the two pull-down menus indicating the State in which I live.
I called Adobe Customer Care for assistance and had to wait two hours for a return call, and by the time the
call came though I had found that the website form allowed me to pull-down for the State of location.
Adobe is an uncaring vendor, once it has your money in hand.

Having a problem with noises and mouse jumping, tried to reinstall and computer will not allow me to select the correct install icon. Sends me to xcode install

my kids computer began acting up this spring...so I shut it down.
Would not stay turned off, various noises almost continually, jumping highlights, etc.
Decided to reinstall os x snow leopard. insert disc and icon appears. then 3 icons with x in a column.
automatically highlights middle icon and will not allow me to select one above. Says install xcode.
not what i want to do.
any help?

What model iMac do you have?
What version of Mac OS is it running? If you don't know, try to give approximations on when it was set up and whether it was ever updated so we can take our best guess.
How are you trying to boot from the install disc? Your description of 3 icons with x in a column' leads me to believe that you aren't booting from the install disc, but rather you are inserting the disc after booting from the OS that is installed on the hard drive. If that is what is happening you'll see something like this, although it will vary depending on the actual version of the Install Disc that you have and how you've chosen to view the files (icon, list, column, etc).
What happens if you restart the system with the Install Disc inserted, then quickly hold down the 'c' key so that the system attempts to boot from the Install Disc. Do you still experience the same issue?

New computer, trying to re-install cs2 upgrade but not allowing me to select disc to upgrade from

So I've had ps for years and have bought multiple upgrades since ps5. I have all the discs etc....I have recently bought a new pc and have tried to reinstall my cs2. It of course asks for the proof of original purchase by putting in the original ps5 disc. Once I do, it will not allow me to select a file from the disc to use as proof. Heck, not even sure of which file to select if I could, but I remember the last time I installed it on my previous computer, it automatically detected it and allowed me to proceed. I have seen a few things about 64-bit, windows 7 and even mention of a DVD-rom drive. Can someone please tell me it is possible to install this on my computer?! If I have to buy another upgrade I'm going to puke!
Thanks!!
"Isn't the price of technology supposed to go down over time??"

Thanks for the replys. Here are the screens that I am getting. The first screen is fine....I enter the CS2 serial number and then go to the second screen. Here is where it asks for proof of upgrade from v5.0 or later. I have the original 5.0 disc and I put that in. Then I select browse. The third screen pops and no matter what I select, the OK button never becomes usable. It is always grayed out.
Now, I have tried to install 5.0 to my computer but can't get past the Install select screen as seen in sceenshot 4. It won't recognize the exe for some reason. I also tried copying everything to a folder on my harddrive and installing it from there but same thing, it won't get past the install select screen.
it does sound like something to do with the optical drive but not sure what to do..
Thanks for the help!!!

CJ36 -BP - 164 - Capital investment budget exists for & - update not allowe

Hello Friends,
We are trying to post supplements using CJ36 for a WBS,but the system giving the error message saying that
" BP - 164 - Capital investment budget exists for & - update not allowed"
Please give some idea on this.
Thanks IN Advance

Hi,
Even though CJ35 and CJ38 are both transactions to perform budget returns, it is important to know that they are working slightly different:
a) via txn CJ38 you return money exactly for the WBS elements you indicate an amount for. So if you indicate 1 COP for
   WBS element XX alone, the return is only being carried out for this WBS element. Since this WBS element is
   not (directly) attached to an investment program position, this is not a problem.
b) via txn CJ35, however, as per system design you return money for the WBS element you indicate p l u s for all WBS elements lying on the hierarchical path above, in order to guarantee that the budget remains consistent (= check error free).
   So by indicating 1 COP for WBS element XX, the system also tries to return the same amount from the overlying WBS element YYY.
Since this WBS element, however, i s attached to investment program position of investment program, the system blocks this posting because this program position forsees budget distribution and thus budgeting is allowed via budget distribution o n l y (txn IM52) - see e.g. F1 help for indicator 'Budg.dist. ovrl' in the master of the investment program position.
So basically you can say that txns CJ35 and CJ36 are not suitable for projects attached to investment program positions that forsee budget distribution. Please check your transaction IM52.
Please check if this fits with your scenario.
Best Regards,
Vanessa.

IWork update not allowed because "eligible Keynote application not found"

OK, I know it is supposed to be in "Applications/iWork '09". It is! The latest version even says it is 5.0.3. I can not get past the alert. I am really looking forward to the update for the tables issues. Please help. What am I supposed to do to get this update installed? Could this be a bug in the installation?

Dear techcpm2018:
Thanks for the information. I "solved" the problem about a week ago by deleting (putting into the trash) the trial Keynote that I had "upgraded" to a retail version. I then reinstalled the iWork '09 applications (from the trial download), applied the online purchased serial #, and then applied the update. All went well. I did notice that the version of Keynote that I "trashed" was Keynote '09 and when I reinstalled it was just Keynote. Not sure if that made the difference or not. Thanks to all of you for the helpful suggestions.

After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download. Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back??

After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download.
Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back?

Where are you, geographically?
I might suggest:
Give this a try:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
After this is completed download and install 10.8.4 Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).
If this doesn't work, then reinstall Mountain Lion:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I am trying to use photomerge compose. I open one standard jpeg image and one image that is my business logo in a png format. When I select the png image, to extract the logo from it, it appears as all white and will not allow me to select the logo from it. It has worked in the past but I downloaded the update today and photomerge will not work correctly. Any ideas?

hedger,
How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

The password for the account "account name" was not changed. Your system administrator may not allow you to change your password or there was some other problem with your password. Contact your system administrator for help.

I have a user who's Active Directory password is going to expire. I had her reset her password by going to apple > system prefs > user > and clicking change password. She received the error "The password for the account "account name" was not changed. Your system administrator may not allow you to change your password or there was some other problem with your password. Contact your system administrator for help."
I had her change her password via the kpasswd command in terminal and that changed her password on the server sucessfully however the laptop has FileVault on it. Filevault is not recognizing the new password just the old password.
I have deleted the keychain which didn't resolve and now I am going to decrypt and reencrypt the drive. I'm hoping this is an isolated issue I have over 25 laptops configured like this.

I "think" the trick was unbinding and rebinding the computer account.
After unencrypting and trying to reencrypt Filevault would still not take the new password.
Rebooted the prompt to update the keychain appeared. Updated the keychain. Filevault would still not take the new password.
Unbinded and rebinded the computer account. It worked and let me add the user to filevault.

It appears Apple’s download servers are ‘overwhelmed’ today. I couldn’t download the newest iTunes update or IOS 7 and there are a lot of discussions today about not being able to download. One poster said they had chatted with App Store support who confirmed the problem.

Will not allow me to select airplay as sound output

Computer will not allow me to select airplay as my output source. Any suggestions ?

Eric Roots link to AirPlay Mirroring - Troubleshooting solved the airplay problem. I realized that I had turned my Firewall on around the same time that my OS was updated.
I am able to keep the Firewall on and allow access by "Itunes only" under one of the dialogue boxes for the Firewall. By allowing Itunes access to through the Firewall, I now have full airplay functionality.
Thanks Eric

Stop whining and you're much more likely to get help.
Managing content on the iOS device has not changed in any way with the new version of iTunes.
It is still possible to "drag and drop" content onto the device, my personal opinion is that this is a silly way of managing content.
Simply select the content desired to sync to the device and synce.
IF you really want to "drag and drop" content, then Manually manage content on the device must be select from the summary tab for the device. Then drag and drop content all you desire. This may require having the sidebar displayed. To display the sidebar, type Cntrl + S.
