Book G4 1.33gh 1.5gb won't run Leopard 10.5.6 after install from retail DVD

I have a 12" iBook G4 1.33gh 1.5gb (last PPC version) that was running Tiger 10.4.11 on 2 partitions.
I wiped Tiger off partition 2, and tried to install Leopard 10.5.6 using a retail DVD.
But after the software loads, and goes to re-boot to the new system set up, all I get is an empty blue screen.
I tried installing 3 times from the Leopard DVD, only to get the same result.
The blue screen isn't a computer problem as I can reboot back to Tiger on partition 1 with no issues.
Anyone know why this is?

I didn't see anything that relates, unless I'm misunderstanding.
The notes suggest doing an archive and replace if the install fails. But isn't an archive and replace really like a clean install, but one that saves your older elements should you want them?
In my case I'm not trying to install Leopard over an older Tiger. I just want to install it clean on an empty partition.

Why won't iTunes 10.6.3 work after installing Mountain Lion?

Instead of downloading from Apple updates on my computer, I went to apple.com, loaded it from there and the update worked fine.

Lightroom 5.6 won't run on Win 7 6 after upgrade through CC

Upgrading Lightroom to 5.5 stopped it from running. I found a fix on the net and moved on.
Now. Lightroom 5.6 has just upgraded and now it won't run. Also, I cannot find a fix - new or old.
This is very frustating..
Please help

Installing the standalone version just postpones the problem until you install the cloud version, again.
The SLCache folder has bad data in it that confused LR 5.5 and again LR 5.6 until it was cleared, via Solution 4 on this page. Of course there could be other issues, so trying each of the solutions in order could be useful, but Solution 4 is the one that finally worked for me, with LR 5.5 on my home computer, and LR 5.6 on my work computer, where I'd installed the standalone 5.5 to bypass the issue and it came back with LR 5.6:
Lightroom doesn't launch or returns "Develop module is disabled" error after 5.5 update
Once you remove the contents of the SLCache folder other Adobe programs will ask to be relicensed like Elements via a serial number or the cloud programs by logging in, but that is just once after you clear it not each time.

Why won't my plug-in's work after installing Firefox 4?

After installing Firefox 4 I have had problems. The Aniweather doesn't work and the other plug in don't seem to be working either. They all say they are enabled. I have reinstalled Firefox and it still doesn't work. I would go back to the old Firefox if I could find it.''Roboform Toolbar won't show when I click on the icon in the upper left corner.

LE 9 won't launch with 10.7.2 after installing on 2nd iMac

I installed the LE 9 Upgrade onto a 2nd iMac running 10.7.2 but it won't launch.
I get an error message saying something along the lines of "This version of Logic Express (9) will not run on this version of OX S"
OS X 10.7.2 is installed.
I tried launching it unconnected from network but still no luck.
The EULA allows for installtion on up to 2 computers owned by me - which both are.

After updating to 9.1.5 it now works.
Did so before seeing the above suggestion but forgot to post that the problem was fixed.
Thx!

Mac mini won't connect to internet two days after installing 10.4.4

Two days after I installed 10.4.4 on my Mac mini. It will no longer connect to the internet. At first I thought it was just the airport extreme card malfunctioning. So today I turned off the airport extreme card, and tried the built-in ethernet and I'm having the same problem. The odd thing with the airport extreme card is that it showing that its connected to the right network but won't do anything.
Any suggestions?
Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hmm, this is interesting. I seem to be having the
same problem. I too have a Mac Mini and upgraded to
10.4.4 a couple of days ago. It doesn't seem to be
pulling an IP address from our DHCP server(Win and
Lin clients are working fine), and when I give it a
static IP, I can't ping anything from the Mini.
However, I can ping the Mini from other
boxes. It does it with wifi as well as ethernet. I
know the wifi AP is working fine - other clients are
running with it, and the Cat5 I used to connect the
Mini to a switch should be working fine(it was what
the access point is/was using to connect to the
switch).
Maybe its totally unrelated, but it your situation
seems eerily similar to mine.
It does your situation does sound very close to mine. Like you said in your post I can ping the mini from other machines and I get responses back, but I can't ping anything from the mini.
The more I think about this problem I'm not sure if its hardware related, software related, or both. I wish I had another hard drive that I could boot from externally to see if my theory is correct.

Acrobat 9 won't install from CS4 dvd

Yesterday, I reported an issue with Acrobat. A users PC crashed a few weeks ago & I reinstalled CS4 from the original DVD we purchased. All applications installed except for Acrobat. I was instructed to download CS4 from the following website: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs4-product-downloads.html
then install Acrobat only. However, when I attempt to install it, the computer hangs at "Preparing to Install..." The PC isn't frozen, I just can't get the installer to move forward. Adobe won't help since this is an older version. All my online searches regarding this issue simply reveal that many other users have the same problem installing Acrobat from DVD - but I can't find anyone who has a solution. Has anyone in this forum found a work-around to get Acrobat 9 installed?

The Acrobat 9 download won't accept my CS4 license. What I ended up doing was jumping through several hoops to get this to work:
Edited Acrobat out of the registry - no change, still pauses during installation
Uninstall CS4 entirely
Run Adobe CS4 Clean Script - see http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
Run Microsoft Installer Cleanup program
Reinstall CS4 including Acrobat
Neither the registry edit, Clean Script or Microsoft installer cleanup fix the problem on their own. Yet, when I did them all in succession, Acrobat installed successfully - finally! I hope this information spares someone else from investing too many hours to fix their installation problem.

Facebook games 'FarmTown' & 'FarmVille' won't run. Flash 10 will not install and displays "incompatibility" with FFox

The games Farm Town and FarmVille partially load on Facebook. The message to update Flash Player is displayed. I clicked to update Flash player, but it would not install. A message displayed saying Flash 10 is incompatible with FireFox and would not install until FireFox was shut down.

I have Windows XP.
In regards to my blank white page, the flash is now working again (Whether I needed to restart again or if it was a site thing).
And I'm not sure how to go about changing my display resolution with the browser, or know where to find it for that matter. Of course there's the one you can find in the control panel/display for the whole computer in general, but that doesn't do anything except make everything larger (Since I originally had it on the highest: 1024 x 768 pixels) and doesn't change the resize compatability for flash player at all.
Above is a screen shot of the jigsaw site I use (which is not the worst game resizing issue I've run into.) On the left side of the flash window, there are options to choose during game play, and the last option gets cut in half b/c the window won't resize correctly. And I haven't any idea if there are more options below it or not.
Below is one of the worst resizing issues I HAVE run into. I don't play farmville anymore since this problem, among it being boring, makes it literally impossible to play the game. I brought up the marketplace option since it's the most drastic. This is all of the flash game window, which would resize anything normally on my other computers, but the images get cut off along the sides with this one. I have tried playing this game on its home site, hoping that facebook was the problem, but it's the same issue there as well.

My android tablet won't play videos in a PDF after downloading from flash archive

I downloaded an interactive PDF and there is a video on the last page that won't play on my tablet, but plays on my computer. I downloaded the latest version of Flash from the adobe archives, as well as an updated reader. Any ideas on what I can do to make the video play?

You cannot use Flash content in PDFs on Android, even if you manage to install the obsolete Flash for Android from somewhere. It just isn't supposed to work.

ITunes won't load on my iPhone 4S after installing ios7

Since installing iOS 7 iTunes won't load up, I've tried restarting and changing the cookie settings but it still won't load

Hi Jason,
It was most decidedly a bad idea. Your "friend" downloaded an illegal, pirated version of the software. So, until tomorrow, you are stuck. When the official version of IOS 7 is released, download it, and pray that everything gets staightened out.
When the software is officially released tomorrow, download it via the Software Update feature under Settings>General.
In future, keep in mind that any software that you download to your devices or Mac that is not either from the Apple Apps store, or from a reputable company (like Microsoft or Adobe, etc.) is potentially a hazard. Be vigilant in checking out who the provider is, what kind of support they provide, and how reputable they are. There are a lot of disreputable people out there who don't give a whit about your devices or your Mac, and whose software will do nothing but wreak havoc with them....
Best of luck tomorrow,
GB

Why won't my Photoshop CS2 still open after installing CS4?

Hi,
I've just installed CS4 Design standard on my PC - alongside my existing CS2 installation, because I didn't want to uninstall CS2 until I'd spent time getting used to CS4.
However, when I try to open images with Photoshop CS2, it's almost impossible to do so - CS4 Photoshop opens up instead. If I try to open an image using Bridge CS2, the only option is to open it with PS-CS4. Alternatively, if I right-click on the image in Windows Explorer and select 'Open with', my only option is PS-CS4 (Even if I select Browse at this point and navigate to the PS-CS2 exe, it still insists on opening PS-CS4.)
The only way I can successfully open images in PS-CS2 is to open the application first, using the shortcut in the Start menu or Quick Launch, and then I have to use File>Open to open the image.
Interestingly, I have no problems with InDesign - yes, ID-CS4 is the default if I double-click an ID file, but I can choose to use ID-CS2 by right clicking and selecting 'Open with'. Same goes for Illustrator.
Has anyone else had this problem with Photoshop CS2 and been able to work around it?
Thanks,
Steven

Help please...Acrobat 8 Pro won't work, after install from CS3 package

Hi, I have just joined a new company, that had a CD of Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Standard, including Acrobat Pro. I have installed all software from disk. However, when I open PDF, the document appears, but I can't do anything with it. The system just freezes & eventually I have to close it down? Phoned Adobe who say its not supported now? Anybody else with a similar problem or advice on how to resolve it please?
Thanks Simon.

Did you only install Acrobat? If so you will need to install another program from CS3 (like photoshop) and open it and register the product. Acrobat by itself cannot do it. If you installed the suite then just open Photoshop and register and it will work.

InDesign CS6 won't package fonts or package anything after installing OSx mavericks - Client is waiting

Pre-Mavericks I had zero problems packaging my INDD files in Adobe InDesign CS6 with all fonts and links intact. Now, when I go to package the same files I successfully packaged last year under Lion, InDesign tells me the fonts can't be packaged (and doesn't package anything else either). My client is becoming very frustrated so I would really appreciate some help from Adobe in solving this problem as soon as possible.

Thank you Willi for responding.
Which fonts are affected? - I'm assuming all of the fonts are affected since no fonts are able to be packaged.
Are all used fonts installed? - Yes
Did you have your fonts in a Document Fonts folder beside your old file and saved your new document on a different place? - Before I upgraded to Mavericks I was able to package everything for this exact same file so I do have fonts in the packaged folder (referring to my 2013 file) so even though the fonts aren't in a Documents folder (they are inside the package "Fonts" folder) so I think the answer to your question is yes.
Does your font folder have the same permession as the folder before? - I believe so because I never changed the permissions for the fonts
Do you use CS6 as part of the Creative Cloud and are you using TypeKit fonts? Or are you using the boxed version? - I am trying to avoid using Creative Cloud since I already have CS6 that I have already paid for. What I am reading on the internet, however, is that Adobe is forcing people to move over to CC when they upgrade to Mavericks due to problems like I am having now. I am not sure if this is true/untrue but I am definitely concerned. I can not afford right now to start paying a monthly fee (especially after I have already paid for CS6). I am using a boxed version of CS6 and I am not using TypeKit fonts.
