Classic folder not found BUT it os9 appears in startup disk list and boots!

I installed my friends system from scratch it is an old imac G3 with latest firmware updates..
In the end the only way to get it installed the way they wanted was to install tiger and drag the system folder over from the old install
Now what happens when booted to OSX 10.4 "Classic" in the system preferences looks for a classic folder but cant find one.... yet if I go toe system preferences startup There are both the OS X starup and OS 9 Startup disk listed there and if selected OS 9.22 boots and runs fine.
It is listed under startup as Mac OS Z1 - 9.22 Machintosh HD
I have not run software update on Tiger yet so it is probably 10.4.3 or 4 maybe this would help ?
Any ideas why it wont see this as haveing Classic on the system ? It seems strange that Apple wont allow you to point to the correct folder when it exists and boots from it fine.
Interesting enough when I plugged in my external firewire drive (which is where i copied the OS 9.22 system folder across from) and run the system preferences and classic setup it looks and sees the external drive folder as ok to run for classic !
Naturally I have unmounted this as it is my drive and not my friends
thanks for your help

when I open
Classic Preferences, the system looks for eligible
System Folders and lists the ones it has found. On my
Tibook, there is normally only one, and that one is
selected by default. In order to deselect it, I would
have to connect my external drive, which contains (on
separate partitions) three other System Folders
suitable for use as Classic. I would then expect to
be able to choose manually from among the four
eligible candidates, even if one of them were
initially selected by default.
Are you saying that the Classic pane of Sys Prefs on
your computer fails to list any System Folder at all,
even though the one that boots your computer into OS
9.2.2 is present and ready for duty? If so, that is
strange indeed.
mine works exactly the same as your then.
and yes you are also right that it fails to list any system folder as all

Hello paddyrb154,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your purchased movie in iTunes on your iMac. It sounds like iTunes thinks the movie is on your computer, but it is not located in the iTunes Media folder.
For an issue like this, I recommend deleting the movie from iTunes and downloading it from the iTunes Store again. Use these steps to delete the movie:
Mac or PC
Launch iTunes.
From the Library pop-up menu, choose Movies.
Click Movies in the navigation bar.
Click the movie you want to delete.
Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
In iTunes 11, the movie cover art will remain visible, but a cloud icon will appear on it to allow you to download the item again (in countries that support this).
How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5772
Once you have deleted the movie, you can click on the cloud icon to download the movie again. If you do not see the cloud icon, use the steps in the section titled “Download previous purchases on Mac or PC ” in the following article to download the movie from your list of past purchases in the iTunes Store:

Moved Music to New Hard Drive - Required folder not found??? pls help

Hello
I have recently purchased a new external hard drive as my crappy Dell was full to the brim with music.
I have moved all my music files over to the hard drive and re installed itunes.
Now when i drag my music folder into the itunes library it updates but the shortly after an error message occurs that says:-
'Itunes Libray music file cannot be saved. Required folder not found'
Previously i have saved my itunes folder within my music folder?.
Now everytime i close down itunes all my music has gone from it!??
Any suggestions....sorry if being really ignorant..not too profficient on computers..
Thanks in advance.

I think itunes by default looks inside you my music folder. In the itunes preferences screen there is an option to select a new folder to your library. Change the path to the music folder on your external drive. Make sure to always have the drive turned on before launching itunes though.
You may also be able to replace the my music folder with a shortcut to the music folder on the external drive. This behavior may not work in windows though so I'm not sure.

Hi...
Based upon the folder error, my guess is the Desktop Manager is having difficulty determining your default mail client. I am not sure why but it is easy enough to redo a profile in Outlook just to test this. (Control Panel / Mail)
Of course, I would backup my PST file prior to doing this and then create a new profile and import the PST file into the new profile. Once the profile is running and tested ok, I would again go to the Control Panel / Mail and set the default profile to point to the newly created profile. Then run the Desktop Manager and see what happens....

Java.rmi.UnmarshalException: skeleton class not found but required for clie

Hello everyone,
I am new to RMI and getting a strange exception. I am using Java 1.5.0_07 both on client and server. They are running on the same machine, the rmi registry is started inside the server application.
I am wondering why java complains about skeletons, I thought they are automatically created when using java 5.0?
Please have a look at the stacktrace below.

NetBoot appears in startup disks but clients will not boot to the images

I recently upgraded a 10.6.8 server to 10.7.4 server. I did a clean update but saved all the needed information off of it.
The problem I am having is with Netboot. I have the service enabled and the images are in place again. These are the same images from the old server, so I know they worked at one point in time.
Now I can goto the Startup Disk option and see the disks there, but when I try to Netboot I just get the folder with the question mark.
This is in a school so we do have multiple subnets, however the IP address on the server remained the same, so the helper addresses are still working.
I have tried to create a new netboot image, but I am new to all of this and it didn't work (I blame me not knowing how to make one, so yeah).
I am currently trying to use Deployment Studio (as was suggested here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3962094?start=0&tstart=0), but I really think there is something wrong with my set up of the server and not the images.
Any help is greatly apprecaited.
Thank you,
Keegan

Install NW Developer Studio. Error:SDK Folder not found!?

Hi All,
I installed Java EE5 SDK(with JDK) and now want to install NW Developer Studio 2.0. The wizard ask for the Java SDK folder path and when I enter it gives an error message "JAVA SDK folder not found".
I used this "path C:\Program Files\Java\Sun\SDK"
Can anyone help ?
Best Regards,
Kushi

Hi Kushi,
NWDS 2.0 is released with SAP NetWeaver 2004 which runs on JDK 1.4. Another reason for this issue might be the space in the path "C:\Program Files\Java\Sun\SDK".
Please install JDK 1.4 into a path without spaces and try again.
Hope it helps!
-Vladimir
PS. Your question does not seem related to the Java EE 5 Edition of SAP NetWeaver, so I'm moving this thread to the NetWeaver AS Java forum.

Cannot Play Disc Folder Not Found

I created a project in DVD Studio Pro 3 and it seems to play in all computers and players with the exception my trusty iMac G3 400 mhz special edition. Everytime I insert the disc I get a message that says "Cannot play disc. Folder not Found." Most commercial DVDs and one disc that I created is DVD Studio Pro 4 play fine. Anyone know why this happens?
imac G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

You'll find in the General in your Disc settings, in the Inspector Windows (if you click in any empty space of your Graphic View, you'll get you disc in the Inspector window).
In DVDSP Preferences, in Project settings, you can change the by default setting for new projects.

Snow Leopard 10.6.1 Clone not appearing in Startup Disk

Before attempting to upgrade to 10.6.2, I made a bootable clone using Disk Utility of 10.6.1. I followed the same procedure I used successfully to create a bootable clone of 10.4.11 just a few days ago on a separate partition of my external drive. After finishing the SL clone of 10.6.1, I went to Startup Disk because I wanted to test if the computer would boot from it, but my new SL clone wasn't there--just my internal hard drive and the Tiger clone. I tried ejecting the external drive, then reconnecting it, and now neither the Snow Leopard nor the Tiger clones appear in Startup Disk. They do appear in Disk Utility, and I verified both of them, so Disk Utility says they're okay, but Startup Disk doesn't see them at all.

lakeshore wrote:
I tried resetting PRAM, but that did nothing. The only thing I did earlier that might have caused this is that when I originally partitioned the drive, I named the volumes "Tiger Clone" and "Snow Leopard Clone." While making the bootable clone of SL, I noticed that Disk Utility automatically changed the name of that volume to "Macintosh HD." So immediately after the clone was finished, I went into Get Info and changed the name of it back to "Snow Leopard Clone." Then I checked Startup Disk, and the SL clone wasn't there, but the "Tiger Clone" was. I then changed the name of "Tiger Clone" to "10.4.11" and that's when the Tiger Clone volume disappeared from Startup Disk. Could changing the names of the volumes have the effect of the volumes no longer showing up in Startup Disk?
this really should not matter. try this. run the following terminal command
sudo bless --folder /volumes/"Snow Leopard Clone"/System/Library/CoreServices --bootinfo --bootefi
you'll have to enter your admin password (which you won't see). that's normal. then see if it shows up in the startup disk preferences.
If I have to access those clones using the option-hold restart, which seems to work for me, that's fine. I just want to make sure that the two clones on my external drive are safe and bootable.

HELP"apple application support not found when installing itunes after a hard drive crash and replace

HELP" error "apple application support not found" when downloading itunes after a hard drive crash and replacement????

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
