A bunch of problems after Solaris 10 install...

Hi everyone,
At first, I'm pretty new in administrating unix systems so forgive me if some questions might sound evident to you.
So there, I installed Solaris 10 on my x86 Pentium 2. After installation, it reboots and then kinda get stuck while booting. After a while sendmail claims it cant qualify it's own domain name.
Then, It asks me to wait for the desktop logon screen before loging in. But than one never shows up. I managed to get a console login prompt, I logged on as root and, using kdmconfig, I set the desktop manager to Xsun. Now when I lounch /bin/X11/X , a solaris splash screen shows up and then nothing more happens... Since I dont know how or if it is possible to quit X at this point, I'm forced to push Reset and to re-wait to get mt console login prompt (and god, this takes time...).
Any ideas about solving those problems? Thanks in advance!

My Late 2009 27" iMac i7 wake up problems after LION installed

About 5 or 6X, My iMac has had wake up problems after I installed LION. The screen wakes but the trackpad or mouse are frozen. I have to do a hard shut down (pressing the power button) for system to work correctly. When I power on the Mac, then everything functions. NEVER had this issue with Safari!

Exatly the same problem here with Lion on iMac 27" C2D late 2009.

Fan problem after Leopard install

PowerMac Dual G5 - after Leopard install, fan between hard drive and optical drive revved up like the computer was going to blast off, faster and faster until I powered down by holding down the power button. Leopard seems to be working fine, but with the fan continuing to go at high speed at all times. I've tried reboot, reinstall, pull plug for a few minutes, remove CMOS battery, and zap PRAM, all to no avail. I haven't put the panel cover back on yet, and that may work, but I won't have time to mess with it for a few days and hope for some insight before I try that.Ideas?

Problem went away. Must have been a ghost in the machine.

Apple ID problem after Mavericks install

Hello Everyone,
After upgrading to Mavericks I tried to read one of my books in ibooks, and after signing in with my apple id I received a notification with the following error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID." The book was originally bought and downloaded on my iPad, but I cannot download them on my Mac. I also get the same error in iTunes when I try to play/download a song from the cloud.
I managed to get the book after syncronizing my iOS devices, but I was wondering if anyone encountered this.

Now that I think about it, this started happening after I installed iTunes 11

Windows XP/Solaris 10/laptop - Problem after to install recomended patches

Hi,
I have a Toshiba laptop with a HDD 40GB. Tow partitions: 20GB for Windows XP and 20GB for Solaris 10 3/05.
1.- Windows was installes first, later with a boot linux CD I use fdisk to resize the disk and create a new partition to install Solaris 10.
2. I installed Solaris 10 perfectly and I worked for more than 1 year this way.
3.- When I turn on the laptop a menu show me and let me choose from where to boot, Windows XP or Solaris.
4.- Now, I got the Solaris 10 Recomended bundle of patches from EIS-DVD (may302006) and I decide to update Solaris 10. I loged into Solaris 10 and in Single user applied the recomended bundle of patches. It become with the new boot loader GRUB and this just let me start Solaris.
5.- format sees the disk with 20GB for solaris and from fdisk utility I could see the Windows XP partition and the Solaris 10 partition as Active.
6.- I setted the Windows partition (1) as Active and reboot the system.
7.- Now I cannot get anything. The laptop turn on and no display is show, nothing.
Someone of you can helpme with this?
Thank you for comments and experience.
spersant

Well, I found a doc #73412 where teach how to enable Windows XP partition with boot loader GRUB.
But my problem is my laptop don't start because the active partition defined with fdisk from Solaris, doesn't have the Master Boot Record and don't show anything on the screen. I am trying to get access through the function keys, but I cannot.
Any suggestion??

Problem with solaris install/boot

I recently had to use solaris at work and liked it. So thought of getting it on intel box at home to learn it. I have never worked on a unix based OS before. When I installed the OS first time, the desktop would not start up, this was because of network setup. Reinstalled worked. After a week due to some problem i had to reinstall OS, installation went fine and but when i reboot i get this errror.
cannot find mis/krtld
boot error loading interpreter(misc/krtld)
elf32 read error
load error read of "platform/i86pc/kernel/unix failed.
boot path /pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide0/cmdk@0,0:a
i have been trying to reinstall with many option like formatting with windows fdisk, linux installer everything as I saw somehwre that disk needs low level format.
I have googled but could not find any reason.
When I try to format disk using windows this is the information gatherd
Partition1 (solarisboot) 12 MB
partition2 unknown 152610
Hardware
pentium4 2.4 GHZ
1Gb DDR memor
Intel Original mother board.
140 Gb hard disk
Installation
install type 3 (tried all options)
entire disk for boot and solaris
accepted almost all parameters.
downloaded again , burned a DVD still same.
Any help will be highly apreciated, as I have been trying out everything I could find, also I really want to learn to use solaris

Weird; it wouldn't be so hard installing/running Solaris 10 on your hardware.
If you haven't tried Solaris 11 (Solaris Express) yet, I would suggest you to download the latest Solaris Express bits from http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/solaris-express/get.jsp.
Hope the following hints are useful, for a smooth installation:
Choose:
* Solaris Interactive installation in the initial screen.
* Networked in Network Connectivity screen
* Use DHCP
* No to IPv6 & Kerberos, if running Solaris 10 is the only priority
* None to Name Service (assuming the machine is not in corporate network)
* CD/DVD to "Specify Media"
* Default Install to "Select type of install"
* No to "Do you need to override the system's default NFS version 4 domain name?"
Note:
Once the installation from CD1 is complete, system boots up from the hard disk; and it may appear that it is not going to ask for CD2. Just be patient, and wait for it to ask you about CD2.

No Battery Charge and Other Problems After OS3 Install - Solution?

This relates ONLY to iPhone Users using the "PUSH" Function for Email or Other Apps!
PROBLEM: It seems as though Apple is at least aware of the problem(s), i.e. once Exchange Email or another App using PUSH is configured, there is an OS3 bug that seems to be hardware independent (impacting ALL 1G, 2G and GS iPhones, but not consistently).
SYMPTOMS: Include some or all of the following . . . rapid discharge (less than two hours from a fully charged phone, failure to charge (by AC adapter or USB to computer), failure to charge completely, perpetual dead battery icon, inability to boot, inability to automatically sleep, quite warm on upper back side, slow email, indication of a full or partially full charge dropping to no charge or dead when removed from charging source.
CAUSE: OS3 Bug prevents consistent charging, draining the battery even when plugged in to a computer via the USB or into an A/C adapter (although I've been able to intermittently charge on an A/C adapter). In push mode, the Exchange email client on the iPhone continually queries the Exchange Server, cycling the iPhone CPU and continually draining the battery at a high rate (can
WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY APPLE:
1) Defective Hardware (though I'm on my third 3G in a week, so I don't think hardware is the problem . . . Apple will consider replacement with a new 3G if my third 3G has the same problem)
2) Corrupted App in iTunes - so I manually reloaded each app directly over wi-fi, one app at a time, this worked until I configured Exchange Email, at which time symptoms immediately appeared . . . so corrupted app unlikely.
3) Initial data transfer after email configuration . . . but symptoms continued long after this.
4) Wi-Fi - but turning wi-fi on or off had little effect, beyond normal.
5) Restore to New Phone - this works fine UNTIL Exchange Email is configured and activated. Thus, the time consuming practice of reload all apps, photos, music, etc. will be for naught, once exchange email is turned on with "push"
SOLUTION: Turning off "push" on your exchange email account
1) Go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars - Fetch New Data
2) Set Fetch Setting to 15 minutes to approximate the much more frequent "push" uploads and downloads. NOTE: Turning off \"push\" at this level will NOT turn off push on your exchange email account and the problem will not be resolved
3) Scroll down and select - Advanced -
4) Identify and select your Exchange Server account
5) Select - Fetch -
6) Leave settings
Phone should cool down in a few minutes and work normally. The problem can be replicated and resolved repeatedly merely by toggling "push" on and off in your exchange email configuration.
I was told that this is likely to be the "fix" until a patch is issued. No time frame was given for an actual fix that allows Exchange users to use push technology. Disappointing, since broader use of "push" technology beyond exchange was one of the big benefits of OS 3.0.
NOTE: THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR ON ALL iPHONES WITH OS3 USING THE EXCHANGE CLIENT. I have second 3G phone, identically configured (including push to exchange email) that has no symptoms at all. Go figure.

Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.

HP LaserJet 1000 problem after Leopard install

Anyone else have a problem printing after the Leopard install?
My printer and driver was recognized but I can't print. When I watch the print queue it say there are errors and fails.
Since HP never made a driver for this printer, I was using a Zenographics driver that worked great. That is, until I upgraded.
I unplugged the USB and power cords, and removed the printer from System Preferences. After plugging everything back in and adding the printer again, the printer seemed like it wanted to print, but still didn't work.
Please help.

Thank you for your answers. I was hoping someone would reply.
HP LJ 1000 is a great printer and I figured a few people had to have one. It is unfortunate as this printer hardly ever needed the toner changed, and I used it as my main printer. I swear I only changed toner four times in the last five years!
I looked everywhere for a driver and found nothing. HP said they had no updated driver for the Mac (as they told me a year ago, too) and they were not going to create one.
My final solution was to give up my printer to a good neighbor for $50 for her pc.
I researched printers from the Apple store and decided to go with the very Mac friendly HP Laserjet 1022:
http://store.apple.com/AppleStore/WebObjects/EducationIndividualCustom.woa/94340 03/wa/PSLID?mco=CC919B84&fnode=home/shopmac/macaccessories/printers&nplm=TC976LL/A&wosid=gG2dihO9R0Mg29v6f901bEeWNf2
Hopefully it will be a good printer. After returning the new toner I bought for the LJ1000, I thought Staples would have it in stock. However, after trying three different stores, it seems the best way to get a Mac-friendly printer is to go online.
I hope I helped you out as well.
Again, thank you.

Screen Sharing Problem after Lion Install

Greetings,
After installing Lion on my MacBookPro 17", I am now unable to use screen sharing to access my Mac Mini Server running 10.6.8 server. When I attempt to make the connection, the Screen Sharing application starts, but I never see a desktop of the Mac Mini. In the system.log, I see entries that include:
Screen Sharing[2062]: MVS Codec - bad rectangle size - closing connection
I've tried rebooting both machines and it doesn't make any difference.
I've only been able to find one mention of a similar message from someone trying to use desktop sharing in iChat, but it didn't include a fix.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave

Apple appears to have solved the problem for me. :-)
My scenario was a MacBook Pro running Lion attempting to screen share the screen of a Mac Mini Server (My HTPC) running 10.6.8. Apple pushed some updates to the Mac Mini on 10.6.8, including:
Remote Desktop Client Update 3.5.1
Safari 5.1
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Supplemental Update 1.0
iTunes 10.4
After these updates, I can once again screen share with the Mac Mini. So, my guess would be something in more likely the Remote Desktop Update or less likely in the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Supplemental Update solved the problem.
Check your Software Update on the machines that you're trying to connect to and see if that solves your problems too.
Thank you Apple!
Dave

Mac App store problem after Mavericks install

I have installed Mavericks, 3 times now, on my MacBook Air. There have been a few hicups but the only one I have been unable to fix is the App Store. It will open, accept my user name and perform updates however it will not allow me to view or download new Apps. If I create a new user that user has full functionality. So the Maverick install has obviously done something to my Mac Store user settings. Has anyone any idea how I fix it?
Thanks

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box markedAllow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Apps updating problems after ios6 installed, apps updating problems after ios6 installed

IMac PPC script problems after Leopard install

Help please:
Hardware - iMac PPC 1.25GB system memory 80GB hard disc
Was running Tiger (fully updated) OK with no problems except hard disc getting full.
Did two things - upgraded to Leopard then moved iTunes content (about 38GB) to external hard drive (with hindsight realise should have moved the music first and done a clean install). I've got the external drive partitioned with Time Machine backing up to one volume and iTunes on the other. All seems to be working OK.
PROBLEM - can't run lots of third party software which previously ran OK eg Open Office (even after reinstall), Onyx, Real Player. Getting messages such as:
"<<script>> doesn't understand the <<event earsffdr>> message (-1708)"
A search suggests this may have happened cos the hard disc got too full at one point - or maybe it was the Leopard upgrade.
I've tried repairing permissions, PRAM zap, general clean-up etc. but no joy.
Should I reinstall Tiger as an "archive and install"? Or could I try doing that with Leopard so I can keep Time Machine? Or is this an excuse to buy a shiny new iMac?
Thanks for helping a newb.

why ould you reinstall Tiger with archive and install?! that will not work well. if you try reinstalling anything it should be leopard. do an archive and install of leopard. you'll have to restart TM backups but that's the only downside.

Problems after Updates installed

I apologize in advance if this topic has already been addressed, I'm living in Rwanda at the moment and have rather infrequent and very slow access to internet and thus have not been able to go through all the recent posts. Also, sorry for the un-technical terminology...
I installed Apple's suggested updates on my MacBook Pro (bought a year and a half ago)and after getting the "restart" portion of the process have had problems. After turning on, the computer does not transition from the gray screen (with the apple logo and the turning circle)to the desktop. I kept it going for over 7 hours as the circle kept moving, indicating it was doing something.
Can anyone help me find the problem and/or the solution?

Try Booting in Safe Mode (hold down shift at startup) and see if that goes better. If it hasn't come to the Desktop within a couple of minutes it's not going to ... hold down the Power button and turn it off
Then try this:
Boot holding down Apple/S and don't let go until you see scrolling text.
When that stops and you see a root#: prompt enter
*fsck -fy*
Let it run through all the checks and repairs.
If it fails first time, at any time, or finds and fixes a fault - run the command again and keep doing so (some fixes can take several passes) until it says "Appears to be OK" then enter
reboot
