After install Leopard and iTunes 9

After install Leopard and iTunes 9, iTunes lock, when I connect my iPhone.
What can I do?

It was a permissions problem causing it.
Get Info and the Sharing And Permissions section did not show it up.
File Examiner (http://www.gideonsoftworks.com/filexaminer.html) shoed the problem with the permissions and allowed me to give the files the correct permissions again.
From what I have been reading, the whole permission 'system' under Leopard seems to be a bit screwy anway. File Examiner seems good in that it shows you the 'real' file system permissions and not the 'user friendly' meaningless name Leopard gives.

After installing Leopard and combo iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch

Hi, probably this question has been asked somewhere, but I can't find it. Given that after upgrading to Leopard and the combo, my iPod is seen in iTunes, but my iPod Touch does not show up in iTunes. The answer seems to be to reinstall iTunes, if I do that, will the reinstall keep my fine iTunes music library? thanks, e_moma

Most people in this situation seem to have to re-install iTunes. iTunes the application resides in the Applications folder. Your music resides in ~/Music/iTunes/ and will not be affected by re-installing the application.
Of course you have a good back-up on an external drive anyway - right(?)

Powermac g4 shuts down during start up after installing Leopard and upgrade

I have a powermac g4 (agp), 1ghz, 120gig hd
I successfully installed Leopard. After install the updater came up so I updated the files. I think they were OSX update, quicktime, itunes, and a couple of others I can't recall. I was prompted to restart for updates and when I did it will get to the white screen with the grey apple and spinning wheel then it just shuts off. I have tried to start it up several times and it does the same thing each time. I can't start with the leopard disk since I can't get the dvd drive to open without it running. I've looked at other similar posts on this subject but don't see any that are similar to mine. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, Claire -
I can't start with the leopard disk since I can't get the dvd drive to open without it running.
Couple of ways to work around that -
• Restart or boot the machine, immediately press the mouse button, keep it held down. This is a hardware command to the Mac to eject all removable media, which should open the drive tray. Insert the disk and close the tray, restart and press the C key.
• Try restarting or booting the machine, then immediately press the Option key (ideally before or simultaneous with the startup chime), keep it held down. This should bring up Startup Manager (a vivid blue screen with a few large icons showing). Once Startup Manager has fully loaded, press Command-. (Command-PeriodKey). This should open the optical drive tray. Insert the Leopard disk and close the tray; wait a bit for the drive to spin up; then click the circular arrow icon on the left. This will cause the machine to rescan the available buses and find the Leopard disk. Once that has displayed, click it to select it and then click the straight arrow icon on the right. It should now boot to that disk.

powermac G4 (agp/sawtooth), 1ghz....
The fastest G4 (AGP), aka "Sawtooth", machine shipped was 500MHz. If your machine is 1GHz, then it has either had a processor upgrade, or it is a later model. It helps us to know which it actually is. These articles can help you identify it -
Article #58418 - Power Mac G4: How to Differentiate Between Models
Article #42739 - Power Mac G4: How to Differentiate Between Models (part 2)
The fact that it may have an AGP graphics card does not make it a G4 (AGP), or Sawtooth, model - all G4's after the G4 (PCI) model shipped with AGP graphics cards, including the Quicksilver and MDD models.

Blue screen appears after installing Leopard and restarting

I tried to install Leopard on my MacBook but got the Blue screen after restarting. I found the apple support article number 306857 and tried option C without success. I don't have a firewire cable so option A is out. I don't know how to reinstall Leopard as Option B suggested. I can't get beyond the blue screen. Any suggestions?

The Apple site is under maintenance, so I can't check the details of the options, but I assume option C is the terminal, when you've started up in Safe Mode. This method worked for me on two machines. You need to type the commands precisely and exactly as they appear in the article, including spaces where appropriate.
To reinstall Leopard, start up with the installation disk in the drive, and when you hear the startup chime, hold down the C key on your keyboard. You need a USB keyboard. You should get the installation screen.

Startup Problems after Installing QuickTime and ITunes 7.5 Update

I went to Software Update today and Installed the new ITunes 7.5 and Quicktime update and after it finished, it asked me to restart the computer. After I restarted:
-All Desktop icons keep flashing at the same time every 3 seconds
-The top white bar with the apple logo in the left corner keeps disappearing and reappearing at the same time as the icons do.
-Every program I open closes within 5 seconds of me opening it, i am only able to open them in the first place because my dock is the only thing that does not disappear.
-Finder and System Preferences are not accessible.
I do not have the System Restore/Tiger backup CD's with me, If these are needed, is there any way possible to use the ones that come with an Intel MacBook, just to maybe repair the hard drive or whatever may be needed to be done?

Hello,
If you mean ... is it ok to use system restore disks that came with an Intel MacBook on an iBook G4, no, that's not possible. Your iBookG4 is a PowerPC... the MacBook has an Intel based chip.
If you installed software such as iTunes and QT updates and these problems just started as a result it may be that your iBook drive hasn't enough available space. If you can, open any Finder window. The amount of free drive space is displayed there. 15% or less is bad. If this is indeed the case, then try to move important files off that drive.
If you can run Disk Utility.. it's in your Applications/Utilities folder. Launch Disk Utility. In the panel on the left, select MacintoshHD 10.4.x, make sure the First Aid tab is highlighted, then click Repair Disk Permissions... that might help. I'd suggest you Verify the disk for errors but you can't do that without the iBook system restore disks.
One other suggestion is to purchase either DiskWarrior available here: www.alsoft.com
or TechToolPro available here: www.micromat.com (I've used DiskWarrior successfully 3 times on my iBookG4!
I hope something I've suggested helps...

G4 ibook complete failure after installing leopard and safari and security

Bought Leopard. installed in my g4 ibook. no problem, downloaded 10.5.2, safari and security updates. computer refuses to chime on, seems to come on, no video screen. seems to be running but no image to work with. HELP~!

Apple repair center diagnosis: not enough ram, maxed out storage.....not enough room to open. I purchased additional ram, $90, and will move several gig of hard disc storage into an external hard drive. The tech guys at the University of Arkansas computer store, rock!

ITunes keeps unexpectedly quitting after installing Leopard

After installing Leopard, iTunes keeps unexpectedly quitting? I've tried recreating the iTunes library with no help.

i had the same problem. finally i found out what was going wrong. it was the digi core audio extension that messed up my itunes. so if you are using pro-tools you should have a look into this possibility.
if not you might want to try and remove any non-apple audio extension and see what happens. don't trash them as you might be able to pin point the problem to only one extension.

Itunes cannot open for mac after installed Leopard

i have problem to open itunes, after i installed Leopard, whenever i try to open itunes or plug in my ipod. itunes will quit unexpectedly, error message " The application Itunes quit unexpectedly after it was relaunched. the problemm may have been caused by the iTunesX Visualizer plug-in"
i tried to reinstall the Leopard and itunes, is still the same, please help.

no issues in installing i insert the new icon into my desktop bar, click on it.......nothing, not even an error msg.
Can you launch iTunes from the Applications folder?
If it won't launch from the Applicaitons folder, run Disk Utility to rule out any problems with the startup disk.
Launch Disk Utility /Applications/Utilities
Select the startup disk in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
Boot from your install disc to make any necessary repairs.

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

The problem is with version 10.4.1. I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work. The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me. Here was their list of steps:
Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
2. Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
     a. iTunes
     b. QuickTime
     c. Apple Software Update
     d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
     e. Bonjour
     f. Apple Appllcation Support
3. Reboot PC
4. Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes. To correct this:
5. Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
6. Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
7. Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
8. Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date. It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
9. Reboot PC

Hi Jen. My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse. Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too. Now to the problem at hand. I have the same problem. I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade. Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade. But I'm sure other factors are involved. Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem: What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it. Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade. Hope this works. Charlie

Question about smc fancontrol after installing Leopard... please help

hi,, i recently had my macbook pro a clean install leopard,.. everything is going fine afterwards until i installed smc fancontrol, smc fancontrol is working fine, but my problem is, i forgot to set the default fan speed on the smc fancontrol which is 2000rpm before i did the clean install, the fan speed was 2500rpm when i clean installed leopard, forgetting to set the default 2000 rpm back,. and now after i installed leopard, and then i installed back the smc fancontrol, the default now is 2500rpm! i cannot set it back to the default, which is 2000rpm, when i tried smc fancontrol keeps telling me that it FELL SHORT OF MINIMUM, which it thinks the default rpm is 2500, how can i get it back to the real default rpm of macbook pro which is 2000rpm? i'm afraid that constantly running my macbook pro forever to 2500rpm will cause the wear and tear of my macbook pro's fans , please help me, i really don't know what i'll do here....

hi, thanks, btw, what would i look for in the activity monitor after i closed the smc fancontrol?
Check all your processes under the CPU tab. They should all be very low at idle--like right after you boot. If you have some process running like 30% for example, that could cause the fans to run faster.
should i check in the activity monitor if the smcfancontrol still runs after i closed it? i
It shouldn't show up in their after you close it.

Mac mini G4 won't mount music CD after installing Leopard

My Mac mini G4 has some issues mounting music CDs after installing Leopard. I did an "archive and install", everything seems to be working fine, except the CD issue. I have also applied all the relevant updates. I didn't have any issue with CDs in Tiger on this system.
Just after booting, the CD does mount. However, I can't eject it by dragging it to the trash can. I can unmount it only by hitting the eject button on the keyboard.
If I insert the CD again it won't appear on the desktop anymore. It doesn't appear in iTunes either, no matter how often I try.
I noticed someone else in these forums had the exact same problem. The problem was marked as solved, but in fact it wasn't. No information is available in the forum on how to solve it.

This EXACT scenario happens to me. It started the day I upgraded from 10.4.x to Leopard. My workaround is to go into Disk Utility, find the CD (which shows up as unmounted). Click on the CD. Then click the "Mount" button at the top. It works, but I'd like a real solution.

After installing Leopard, my G4 will no longer boot in OS 9.22. (Classic still works, but I need it to boot in OS 9.) Any clues about what the Leopard installer might have done to my machine that rendered OS 9 boot unusable? What can I do to fix it?

After installing Leopard, my G4 will no longer boot in OS 9.22.
(Classic still works, but I need it to boot in OS 9.)
Any clues about what the Leopard installer might have done to my machine that rendered OS 9 boot unusable? (And what can I do to fix it?)
Details:
G4 Gigabit Ethernet
Boot ROM version: 4.2.8fl
Accelerator card added: 1.6 MHz
1.5 Gig Ram
I have erased the partition that had Leopard installed on it.
I zapped the pram.
In Open Firmware, I "reset-nvram", and then "reset-all"
I tried to reinstall G4 FW Update 4.2.8, but that must be done when booted from OS 9, and of course, that's the problem: it won't boot into 9.
I tried restarting from 9.2.1 DVD.
I tried restarting from an external firewire drive containing OS 9.2.2.
I tried moving a fresh OS 9.2.2 system folder into an empty partition on an internal hard drive. (Partition was created WITH OS 9 drivers installed.)
All attempts to boot into OS 9 give me the same results - grey screen - no spinning beach ball, no icons or logos - just a blank grey screen.
This machine still works fine in OS 10.3 and 10.4, and it worked fine for many years booting into OS 9, until I installed Leopard, and I haven't been able to boot into OS 9 since then, although I have done considerable research online and tried many things.
I have since learned that this machine does not support Leopard - 10.5. Fine, but how did it break 9.2.2?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks for checking in, BDAQua.
Problem solved.
In the docs that came with my Powerlogix accelerator card, I found this sentence buried:
"If you reset the PRAM, the NVRAM code for OS9 compatibility is cleared, so you will have to boot from the Firmawre Update CD and perform this process again in order to boot in OS9."
The "process" it's referring to is the process of setting up the NVRAM for booting into OS9 from the CD.
Fortunately, I was able to find the disk, and it worked as expected. I can now, once again boot into OS9.
Conclusion: My (unadvised) attempt to load Leopard on this old machine apparently reset the PRAM on the accelerator card and cleared the NVRAM code for OS9 boot. Although I did attempt to reset the NVRAM via Open Firmware, it did not reset it on the accelerator card.
So, thank you BDAQua, for your "Ah yes" . . . that's all I needed to steer me in the right direction.
Gratefully,
tupester

My external drive went dead after installing Leopard

Hey guys
I'm very bummed out, my external HD went dead after installing Leopard on my Dual 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5. It was working perfectly fine before, had not a single problem with it but now, I've just lost all my work. I tried Disk Utility from the disc with no luck, it gave tons of errors and it say it couldn't be repaired. Now, it doesn't show up at all. Every single time I connect it I get a message saying the disk I inserted is not readable by the computer. This is a 200GB Maxtor external drive. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Any hardcore Software to retrieve my files? I'd appreciate if anyone can help me with this.
Thank you in advance

Movies are currently a one time download. Because of this, it is your responsibility to back them up so when something like this happens, you can simply copy them over the new drive.
You can't download them again with purchasing once again.

Error Messages After Installing Leopard 2

After installing Leopard from the Install DVD, I used Software Update to update to 10.5.1, and updated QuickTime, etc. I also ran Cocktail, the Leopard edition. The Hard Drive checked out OK. When I ran Repair Permissions in Disk Utility, I got a number of error messages. One set starts like this: "Warning SUID file "System/Library/Private Frameworks/DiskManagement.framework/Versions/A/Resources/DiskManagementTool" has been modified and will not be repaired."
There are a number of messages like this. What shall I do?

Download and install this update, even though you've already updated.
