Cannot start Classic mode after 10.3.9 update

Hi!
I recently used the "Software Update" tool to update my 10.3 OS version to 10.3.9. After doing this, I found that I could no longer start Classic mode while in OSX. I did a clean install and can boot using OS 9.2.2, no problems. But I still cannot launch Classic while in OSX.
The exact error message is: "There is a problem with updating the Classic-specific files. Classic was unable to update its file in "System Folder" on "Macintosh HD".
I have a graphite G4 with 384 MB RAM and I'm still running a helluva lot of OS 9 software. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help

Hi, Joe -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
Try removing the 'old' Classic-specific files from the OS 9 System Folder (you can do this while booted to either OS, although I suggest doing it while booted to OS 9).
These files include - Classic, Classic Support, and Classic Support UI (all usually located loose in the System Folder); Classic RAVE (in Extensions folder); and ProxyApp (someplace - location seems to vary).
Put those in the Trash and empty it, then restart into OSX and try designating the OS 9 System Folder as Classic via the Classic pane in OSX's System Preferences (in Apple menu).

Ts-l663b cd/dvd "device cannot start,code 10" after uppgrade from vista to windows 7 home

Compaq CQ60-216DX
Hi,I've upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 Home and now the CD drive is missing and displays an error code"10" DEVICE CANNOT START, under Device Manager.
Looked for updated drivers on HP Support,there are none for CD drive.
Cannot roll back driver,greyed out.
Used Restore to revert back 2 months and still no progress. Removed recently installed software from HP(C5280) printer as well.
Immediately after upgrade,CD drive worked fine. Even loaded music into iTunes.
I'm at a loss. Any ideas?
Thanks

IPhone 5S trapped in recovery mode after mistake made in update process.

My iPhone 5S is trapped in recovery mode after I option-clicked "update" and selected the iOS 7.1 beta build 11D5099e ipsw, when I needed to option click "restore" before doing so. I'm really getting desperate because I have no backups of my iPhone anywhere (not icloud or computer), and cannot boot out of reecovery mode. I can put the device into DFU mode, but it makes no difference. Attempting to update the iphone to ios 7.1 from recovery mode produces error #17. Attempting to update the iphone to 7.1 from DFU mode produces error #11. Both errors are not mentioned in apple's updating and restoring support page. Before I try just clicking "restore", is there anything else that I can do? Restoring the phone is NOT an option, as I have a ton of data on it.
Please don't just say "no", because that's not very helpful. If there's truly nothing I can do, and I mean NOTHING, because I am fairly tech savy and can perform pracically any solution you give me, then I will accept that and just restore the phone.
But if there is ANYTHING I can do, tell me...
Please...
TL; DR: My iPhone 5S is trapped in recovery mode and I refuse to restore it unless it is my only option. Is there anything else I can do to fix it?

Actually, I just fixed it with tinyumbrella. I thought I had already tried it when I posted this, but I guess not.

When I update an app it asks for my password (as usual) but now there is no touch keyboard or other way to enter the password. This problem started, I think, after the latest OS update.What's going on?

I tried a reset and it did the trick.

By definition your installation was not successful.
What network were you connected to when you installed the database?
After you rebooted are you still connected to the same network?
Has the IP Address changed?
How is "HOST" defined in your listener.ora tnsnames.ora files?

Audigy 2 value "This device cannot start (code 10) after installation and no so

after installing this card I get a "This device cannot start (Code 0)" message in device manager. I disabled the onboard sound in the bios, installed using the CD and rebooted the computer. But still no sound. When using this method on another computer the installation went smoothly. Since it was still not installing on this computer I tried different PCI slots (keeping in mind that it is not suppose to be installed in the PCI slot adjacent to the AGP slot). I've tried everything I can think of and I still get a "This device cannot start (Code 0)" message under the driver in device manager and no sound whatsoever. Please help because if I can't get it to work I'll have to return it. Thank you.

I did manage to get mine working finally, it was pretty stupid of me....
Anyway I made sure the creative disk was in the dri've and then when my comptuer said "found new hardware" i pointed to the dri've and made it install the driver. Well that did work and it did say it installed the hardware, but it still didnt work. I then took it into my brother computer did it the exact same way and it worked fine. I finnaly brought it back to my PC and installed it one more time. it did the same exact thing. But this time i opened up the disk and installed the driver direct from the disk menu, after reboot it worked like a charm. Thought that was a tad strange, but it worked, maybe if someone makes the same mistake as me this will help.
Card is good, not much of a step up from my li've 5., but that card is going in a friends PC so its no biggie.

Cannot start up iTunes after disc defragmentation

So yesterday I made a disc defragmentation on both my hard drives and now I cannot start up my iTunes. When I click on the iTunes icon it begins to install Itunes but stop and givs me a message saying" Cannot write to file

Make sure you have access to the catalog".
If I want to uninstall my iTunes I get another error message with an error code 2330
I'm lost! I cannot start up my iTunes, I cannot uninstall it and I cannot reinstall. Can anyone please help me?

This error suggests a filing system problem or a file has been corrupted.

"Office 2004 cannot start" error message after leopard install.

I have upgraded only 1 of my systems to Leopard. My notebook and Mac Mini are both running OS X 10.4.11. I purchased a Student and Teacher edition of Office 2004:Mac in June 2004 and have installed it on my iMac (now upgraded to OS X 10.5.1) as well as the other two systems. The Tiger systems can both be running Office without any problems, however, when I attempt to open any Office app. on my iMac I get the following message ... 'Microsoft Office 2004 cannot start because Microsoft Office is already in use. An office program is being used by (husband's name). Your installation exceeds ....blah blah'. I have checked the microsoft.public.mac.office newsgroup and it seems that where others experience this problem it is because they have duplicated one of their product id's. That is not the case with me. Each of my 3 versions of office has a different ID. I did an 'Erase and Install' when I installed Leopard so I did a fresh install of Office 2004 on my iMac. This install generated a different product ID from the original one (which I made a note of). However, I don't know how to change the product ID back to the original one or if, in fact, this is what is causing me to get the message.
Can anyone help me - this is driving me crazy??
Cheers
Tricia

FYI, the +product ID+ is different from the unique +CD key+, or serial number, (the long string of capital letters and numbers, separated by hyphens) which each installation requires. So the fact that the install, as you put it, "generated a different product ID from the original one," doesn't matter: it still sees the two installations as having the same serial number, and therefore not permitted.
Fortunately the answer is simple. First, uninstall Office 2004 completely from your iMac using the "Remove Office" tool you'll find in "Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Additional Tools," then reinstall it, being sure to use a different CD key this time. Since you just bought the student and teacher edition, which comes with three licenses and three discrete CD keys, you should be all set!

IPhone is stuck in recovery mode after I tried to update it. What can I do?

I tried to update to iOS 4.3, It seemed to be working fine until it displayed this error notification - http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblrlhuulwwGjV1qbpguwo1500.png My phone is now stuck in recovery mode and I cannot restore it, I can only "restore and update" and its the update which isn't working.
Someone told me to download 4.2 online and restore it, I have downloaded it but I don't know how I can install it back on my phone
Please can anyone help? this is urgent!

This reply isn't to shorty2006, that post was awhile ago. This is for everyone that updates itunes and gets an error that their phone is now in Recovery mode.
I've been researching all night and even thought about downloading several different things that were suppose to get my phone out of "Recovery" mode. Then I thought about taking my phone to the Apple store after work tomorrow. I then found this blog and read coltonkj's entry and tada! I took a big breath and hit "restore". It worked, it put me back to the page where you can select to restore the last back-up. Shooooo!!!!
Thank you coltonkj !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My iPhone 4s is stuck in recovery mode after yet another failed update.

I had freed space, obviously not enough. I cannot understand why Apple could halt not the or prevent the update process if space is lacking, instead of turning the phone into a recovery mode brick. It gave the message that update failed, and went into recovery mode. Most times I update this happens. Usually I manage to get it to reset, and restore from an iTunes backup. Not this time. iTunes can see no phone. Off/on and home together do not reset.
I needed to get iOs 6.1.1 and lastly the most recent update. Given my bad experience of updates, I avoid them if I can.

Someone help, Is there something that can knock it out of Recovery Mode? It's possible with other phones, say Android phones to remove the battery, and also to update with problems every single time.
I'm changing phones. This has to be the forth time. Most other times iTunes found that the phone was in recovery mode and could return me to some default setting.
