Cany you help me with Installation and Disk Utility questions?

Greetings.
I'm just learning this stuff, so your responses in basic terminology would be appreciated. (Instruct me as you would my grandson). I have two questions.
First, I bought a used dual 450 from a friend, and, as I do not have the disks or license for the OS, I decided to make it legal by purchasing, registering, and installing new Panther DVDs. As I have been running 10.3.9 and the new disks are labeled eMac 10.3.3, is there anything I should or should not do in the process of installing the new disks? Do I need to install 10.3.3 and then download the 10.3.9 update? Will I lose anything in the process? I assume the eMac disks will work OK on a G4 tower.
Second, After power failures (common where I live), when I re-start the computer, it won't progress beyond the spinning spoke thing (I don't know what it's called), so I have to shut the computer down, and, after one or two more attempts to start up, it seems to start up OK.
I was told that, after a situation like this, I should start up with the install disk and run Disk Utility to repair the start-up disk.
The problem is that when I attempted to do this with the new DVD (again, I have not installed the OS from the DVD yet), the computer started up fine, but Disk Utility ran for a minute or so, then gave me the following message: "Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility." This happened twice in succession. I quit Disk Utility (although it warned me that I could rended the disk inoperable). The disk seems OK, but I don't know what the problem is with DIsk Utility, or what to do.
Thanks for your help.
G4 Dual 450   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   1 GB RAM

The problem is that when I attempted to do this with
the new DVD (again, I have not installed the OS from
the DVD yet), the computer started up fine, but Disk
Utility ran for a minute or so, then gave me the
following message: "Disk Utility has lost its
connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot
continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility."
This happened twice in succession. I quit Disk
Utility (although it warned me that I could rended
the disk inoperable). The disk seems OK, but I don't
know what the problem is with DIsk Utility, or what
to do.
Hi Jerry:
Getting back to the problem you're having with Disk Utility, a number of people have encountered this following an update to iTunes. If I understand correctly, when you bought the G4 it came with Panther installed, which your friend had updated to 10.3.9.
In an earlier post, Kappy posted the most succinct work-around I have found for this error:
1. Navigate to the /Library/Receipts/ folder.
2. Locate the iTunes.pkg and iTunesX.pkg files and move them to the Desktop.
3. Run Disk Utility and repair permissions.
4. Move the .pkg files back into the /Library/Receipts/ folder.
Give it a try and let us know how it works. As for your installation DVD, I have to concur with the others who have posted: it's meant specifically for one model of the eMac. It may work on another mac, but odds are it'll be problematic.

  • Installer and disk utility deleted please help

    I'm using an eMac 10.3.9 700mhz .The installer, terminal, and disk utilities have somehow been deleted from the utilities folder and I'm don't know how to replace them. I no longer have panther CD-roms, and did not think to back them up. Any ideas how I could get them back?

    the installer shouldn't be in a folder with disk utility, or not the main installer anyway. what you should do at this point is get the install disks for the current operating system and do an archive and install of the operating system. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120 make sure you run disk repair beforehand and that you fix any errors that come up. you may have to reinstall some third party applications. good luck and let me know how you're doing.

  • Problems with flash and disk utility

    I'm having problems to iniciate Macromedia Flash 8 and Dreamweaver 8. When I try to open, the program opens, but It doesn't respond.
    When I try to look at permission, the disk utility also doesn't respond.
    Detail: I reformated my computer last week. I erase everything an start all over again.
    I want to know what is happening with my computer. Is it serious? Do I need to change any part of my computer or ask for a technical support?
    Thanks

    Have you tried replacing the Dock icons with the updated applications?
    While written for 10.2.x, you may want to give try manuallg updating the PreBinding.
    Otherwise, you should check Macromedia's user boards, as being more likely to have other users going theough the same upgrade path that you used. In particular, check for any reported incompatabilities between the application version numbers and your OS X version.
    You can check the serial number of your eMac yourself against the ranges cited in eMac Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues.

    Hello, we have both Creative Cloud membership and Creative Cloud for team. Can you help me with the difference and if i need to have both? We have 9 employees that are using it. Just not sure if i'm paying for something i don't need.
    Thank you

    CC is for retail use with 20 GB of storage space, CCT is where number of seats are purchased & assigned by one program admin where each seat gets 100GB of storage space.
    You can not have both the CC & team in one account as it will only provide you added storage space of 120 GB but you can activate the CC any of them or either of them twice as CC is based on Adobe ID.

    Upgrading to firefox 5 and updating my plug-ins helped a bit. Frog is less 'sticky' now, but it's not solved the problem. Java needs to be up to speed or the frog goes into stasis....

  • IPhoto and Disk Utility Will Not Launch - Please Help!!

    Hello!
    The last week I have not been able to launch iPhoto. When I tried to troubleshoot last night by going through solutions on the forums, I realized that I couldn't launch Disk Utility either. I have since run the Disk Utility from the Mac OS Panther Install Disk, gone through several troubleshooting procedures (font cleanups, cache cleanups, hard-disk space cleanups, etc.) but with no success.
    The last troubleshooting doc I went through recommended checking Console for a log of problems, and sure enough, the only comments in the Console Log were related to iPhoto and Disk Utility. Can someone please advise regarding the below comments and how to fix??
    Thank you SO much!

    Hi - I appreciate the assistance, but archiving and reinstalling does not help me determine why this happened, how to prevent it from happening again, and is a fairly elaborate process for something that might have a quick fix (what I was hoping for). I was trying to leave that as a last resort.
    Also, I have no idea what Onyx is - would you elaborate?
    Thank you!

  • Can you help me with mouse pressed method please?

    hi
    can you help me with my problem please, player label doesn't show up in the applet and the draw string method it doesn't draw any strings like X or O for the game I don't know what is the problem maybe it is with MousePressed method which is in Board class.

    I was playing with this a little bit and came up with this game model, something that I'm sure can be improved upon greatly:
    TttXO.java
    an enum to encapsulate X vs O. I could use a boolean here since it has 2 states, but this seems more intuitive to me
