Classic stalls- due to corrupt extensions?

My Classic environment stalls during start up.
I originally followed the advice in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106835
to no avail.
I had also tried to start up with extensions off, which works, but leaves me without extensions. You may view my previous post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=499926&tstart=0
I have since gone through the entire extensions folder and tried each one by one (starting up Classic after each addition) and found 18 extension files to seemingly be corrupt. I've placed these in the disabled extensions folder and Classic starts up without stalling.
However, I can't open any applications.
When I try to open a classic application it bounces in the dock, stops bouncing and does not go away, the triangle underneath does not appear, the application does not appear, and it won't respond to quit commands.
Also, when I try to open a Classic application without first separately starting up Classic, the Classic start up will stall.
I've tried reinstalling Classic with the Software Install and Restore disk, and repaired disk permissions. After doing this I attempted to reinstall/restore software (photoshop 6) from its disk and the installer application, a Classic application, wouldn't open.
I can't imagine what else could be effecting the start up. If there's anything else I can do, or redo I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you.

Hi, Cabbitsu. I suggest starting up from your Panther installer disk 1, opening Disk Utility from the Installer menu, and running DU's "Repair Disk" routine repeatedly until it reports twice in a row that your disk "appears OK". Then perform another new installation of Classic — a Clean Install if that option is available to you — and test again.
I can't assure you that this will be the solution to your problems, but it is likely that they stem from some corruption of your hard drive directory, and this procedure will reveal and probably repair such corruption.
If DU's "Repair Disk" routine never gives your drive a clean bill of health without reporting that it had to fix something, you will need a stronger disk utility such as DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro to make the necessary directory repairs.

Can't use time machine due to corruptness even after reinstalling snow lepoard how to fix?

Yes, someone stole my original apple id in 2009. Now i bought another iphone in late 2012 , Created another apple id due to Apple not being able to help me access my original apple id. Which now since 2 months ago someone or company, or bank stole my second apple id. My iphone 4s with Sprint has no celluar connection supossedly due to no internet that is what sprint said but I looked it up on apple and it stated that there is a cellluar block on my iphone4s.
So I guess I will have to go in person to Sprint so they can explain that to me and why I was lied to on the phone earlier. Back to my 2nd stolen apple id that I registered my macbook,airport express router, and iphone4s and apple TV. So who ever stole this apple id obviously took over all my mac products I had registered to it. Enough about that back to trying to use time machine....Everytime i do, my macbook just starts acting all screwed up. I bought a WD external drive for Mac but I believe someone must have claimed it too. Since there is 75gb on it that I can't access. Kind of like my Macbook stating I can't save or have access to the Root . That is another thing after reinstalling snow lepoard which works great until I update it. Which is a problem because everytime I update it to 10.6.8 All the permissions are changed the graphics look horrible and I get redirected so bad its not funny. The email account is a joke. Also I notice my stationary for email is in Spanish not sure why and on Iworks the document samples are also in spanish. Now I dont speak any other language except ENGLISH AND HAVE LIVED IN UNITEDSTATES MY ENTIRE LIFE. But my internet provider Fibrant which swears they are local shows it is in the UK also when i try to access my email for that account it states it is not safe , certificate is expired and someone might be trying to impersonate my server. Needless to say it is getting old. I had this same problem with Timewarner and Att except att would just remove my ethernet driver then laugh when i would call and ask what the problem was. Then later I find out when I had DSL that somehow the phone number they had listed was change to being a digit off from my DSL account which again they laughed and thought it was funny. Enough about that. I need to know how to get access to my Apple id. I gave up on the first one but the second one I did have access to until I registered all my apple products. What is up with every thing I have with a usb port being corrupt. I have also notice anywhere in town where I live my phone is English until I come home it is arabic,hebrew , spanish any language except English. Shouldn't I be safer in my home??????????????? But I am not I am safer in town or anywhere but my home. EVerything states international in my home and this has been going on since 2009.....No one can tell me why. My power from Duke reads that OTHER Is costing me the most $$ every month what ????? This is a joke. But yet no one can tell me why or how to fix the problem. Going on 5 years , I have been cut off from everyone I know. Can't keep contacts on a phone or email accts. They all disappear. All so I am in Eastern time zone but all my computers and tv seems to think I am in pacific timezone. No one can fix this problem either. So if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix at least one of my 5 year problems I would be grateful. I try to create a new email account but either I am locked out right after or someone turns it into an alias account which doesn't help me. When I was layed off in 2009-2010 I went back to school/college. Needless to say they took my School email acct too.
Back to my iphone 4s problem. My icloud email account gets alot of spam starting about 2 months ago and I can't stop it. I try to foward it to Spam @ me but it hasn't helped.My iphone can only connect to the internet with wifi. Sprint swears that there is not a block but according to apple there is.
About my macbook and apple ID how can I upgrade my Macbook from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 with out all the permissions being changed and corrupt?? I have tried several times and it is always the same. I won't to connect my iphone to itunes to try to restore it but it states I have to update it to 10.6.8. When I do that my computer is alot worse off. Also how can I use TimeMachine with out my Macbook getting messed up? Something in my house has taken over anything with a usb port actually years ago and probably now something kept turning all my computers and phones or any electronic I owned it to a printer. I actually can't even use a printer in my home thats the funny thing. When I try to connect one when I used windows it stated I had no rights to it and couldn't use it. Since I switch to Mac not much better. When I try to print a test page it is all crooked and too small of half off the page. So it is upsetting that I can't use a printer but something keeps turning all my electronics into printers. If anyone knows how to fix this problem that would be great or to stop all this international stuff going on in my home that would be wonderful. I try to buy brand new pcs but soon as I start them up something had already taken over. This is with nothing electronic in my home on. Turn everything that a power switch off or unplugged it. Still I lost rights and access to anything in my home. Now if I am away from my home and try to use one of my laptops they look completely different and almost usable. Unfortunately I can't afford to move. I thought about it but I am still in bankruptcy and don't have the money. In the last 4 years I have not been able to reinstall in backups that I have created. Not sure why oh wait it states I have no rights to do that. My macbook I lost access to a week after I bought it and connected my iphone too. You don't know how many times I wish I had never backed my iphone 4s to my Macbook. Right after I could not log into it. Even used the disk to reset the password nope still couldn't log into it. Try to type the formula for resetting the password and nope it didn't work either.
Any suggestions would be appreciated---Need to gain access to my apple Id that would be a great start

I followed your help directions on "Corrupt extension files" under "Unable to install add-ons", foolishly deleting the files you told me to. Now firefox won't open. I tried reinstalling firefox but it still won't open. Now what do I do?

I was trying to install the SEOQuake add on. After clicking install Firefox would hang up saying the script had timed out and asking if I want to stop it or continue. Didn't matter which option I chose nothing would happen. The only way to stop it was to close Firefox and restart. Tried restarting the computer. Still wouldn't install. Tried installing the Outwit add on and got the same error leading me to conclude it was a problem with Firefox, not the add on. I found this help page <http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons?s=addons+won't+install&as=s> and did everything it told me to. Finally at the end I got to "Corrupt extension files". I foolishly deleted the files you told me to and now Firefox won't even start! I tried reinstalling Firefox and it still won't start. Tried restarting the computer. I have no idea how to get back to where I was let alone install the add ons I wanted to install. Please help. At this point I'd just be happy to be able to get Firefox working.

See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br />

Moving neighbours phone line due to an extension t...

I contacted BT to move neighbours phone line due to an extension to my house. Asurvey was done and the estimate given to move it a few feet from where it currently is. My neighbour does not want the telephone line to be moved to the proposed new location and wants it elsewhere. Obviously this will cost me more money. Should I be footing the bill for this extra cost to move it to a place of my neighbour's choice.?

Can you expand on your question, are you asking if your neighbour should foot the rest of the bill or should BT or Openreach?
If you are expecting BT or Openreach to pay the additional charge for your neighbour wanting it elsewhere that isn't going to happen.
If you feel your neighbour should foot the rest of the bill then that is really something you are going to have to come to some sort of an agreement on with your neighbour but at the end of the day you are the one who wants their line moving for your benefit.
Also can I just ask, are you paying BT Retail to do a Lift and Shift or are you paying Openreach to do a Line Plant Rearrangement, I am guessing a Line Plant Rearrangement as you did mention a survey being done and the only thing you can normally order through BT Retail is a Lift and Shift of the NTP inside your neighbours property.

Possible corrupt extension problem? (G4 - OS 9.1)

After a bad shutdown, (my fault) of my G4 everything still worked ok apart from one weird problem. Some of the programs I use (Quark for instance) don't 'remember' the previous file location. For instance, if I dig down some folders and pull up a file, and then immediately try to open up another file from the same location, the program defaults to the desktop, and I have to dig through the folders again. It's the same with 'Save As', it always defaults to one particular location, not the previously used one.
I've tried desktop rebuild, zapping the PRAM, Diskwarrior, (which found some errors it corrected, and I've used 'scavenge' mode), Norton Disk Doctor but still the problem pesists.
I tried deleting the System Preferences file, which actually worked, until I rebooted.
I've now tried re-installing 9.1 (but haven't yet tried a 'Clean Install').
I've just booted up with extensions off, and all programs work as they should, i.e. they remember the previous file location just used.
So, I'm thinking it might be a corrupted extension, but haven't a clue which one affects the file location issue above.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Would this problem get solved by doing a 'clean install'? I've backed-up the existing system folder, however, I'm worried that if I do a clean install, I will have to copy back all my existing extensions & preference files, which will probably re-introduce the same problem.
Please could someone advise on the best way forward?
By the way, I've experienced this problem previously, and running Diskwarrior fixed it, but not this time. I ran Norton first, and have since found out that this can create further problems, and that I should have run Diskwarrior first.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is getting to me.
Thanks
Paul

Hi, Paul -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
There is a setting in the General Controls control panel for that, in the section named Documents. The choice of "Last folder used in the application" should be selected to achieve what you want.
Sometimes a preference file gets damaged or corrupted, and the OS will behave erratically. The solution for that is to throw away the preference file and restart; a new one will be created with default settings. In this case, try throwing away the preference file named General Controls Prefs, empty the Trash, then restart. Once rebooted, open the General Controls control panel and reset that option.
If you can not make that setting in General Controls control panel -
Make sure the following are turned on in Extensions Manager: Multiple Users (Control Panels); Multi-User Startup (Extensions); Security Library (Extensions); Security Manager (Extensions). Note that Multiple Users can be turned off within the control panel, it just needs to be in the active set.
Add more memory to General Controls control panel (in spite of its designation, it's actually an application). Doubling the original amount is usually sufficient.

No matter what I do I cannot restore ipod classic. Ipod is corrupt with unknown error 1439.cannot restore the ipod Have tried all options but . can anyone help?

I recently bought a second-hand ipod classic. When connecting to itunes the message reads that the ipod is corrupt and needs to be restored to factory settings. However, this does not solve the issue and I get the message saying unable to restore, unknown error 1439. No matter what i have tried through apple support i get the same result. My computer runs Windows XP but I have also tried on my laptop which operates Vista and still no joy. Anyone able to solve this one?

Normally unknown error is due to timeout, cause by
connected to slow USB port at the front of the PC, or using USB Hubs - Better connect to the USB HUb at the back of the PC. (Some Laptop, has only one High Power -USB2.0 port
USB resource low, due to sharing of other USB devices - Disconnect all other USB devices when Restoring.
Winsocks conflict with iTunes - Disconnect Internet and Stop firewall and Antivirus, emails apps.

OS 9 Classic stalls on start up

     I have an iBook, running 10.4.11. I can afford to upgrade to a Pentium processor MacBook, but choose not to do so because of thousands of dollars worth of software I have that works only on OS 9, so I need to keep 10.4, which, on the old Motorola processor, will run both X and 9-Classic.
     The problem is that I had a previous iBook and woke up one night to the sound of the hard drive making a grinding sound. Of course I immediately shut it off. I then shipped it to my son, who is also a Mac devotee. He not only picked me up another iBook at a reasonable price, but took the HD out of my old iBook, put it in an external USB hard drive case, and it worked fine, so he sent me both. The iBook worked great, both in X and 9-Classic, so I began transferring (drag & drop) everything over from my old hard drive to the new iBook.
     After I finished, I tried to start 9 Classic - the Classic screen would pull up and the progress bar would begin to move, but stall after it had filled in roughly 1/16 of an inch. I could leave it on all night, but it still wouldn't load any further. I noticed I had SoftWare Restore in the Application Support folder of my OS 9 System Folder, and thought restoring my 9 software might make a difference, but discovered 9 has to start up before the restoration app can be used, so I'm back at square one.
     I'm usually very knowledgeable with Macs (still have an old LC, as well as 2 Bondi iMacs), but this has me stumped. I'm betting I pulled something over from my old hard drive that I shouldn't have and it's creating a conflict, but I can't imagine what it could have been. I've tried starting up with extensions off, but that doesn't work either. I can't use any of my OS 9 software, and could sure use some recommendations.

Hi BD, good to hear from you again. You might remember I posted this just before T-giving, and was advised to try again after the holiday, as likely many were away celebrating.
As I mentioned above, "I've tried starting up with extensions off, but that doesn't work either." So, nope.
I once did call-in Mac Tech Support, and after "Have you checked to see if it's plugged in?" the second most frequent question I asked was, "Have you tried starting with extensions off?"
Note particularly, in the screen shot below, the tiny area on the left of the progress bar, indicating that it started to load, then stopped.

Pacman download corrupt extension(Solved)

Download of libpng for x86_64 produces a download with the extension .pkg.tar.xz...instead of .pkg.tar.gz.
Whazzup?
EDIT: Same for avahi, smbclient and fluidsynth.

PierreL:
The problem is not what you suggest. I have dutifully performed upgrades almost every day. Some of them take half the day to perform since I have a backup HDD which needs the same upgrade. The size of recent upgrades has made the system unuseable for most of the day waiting for the upgrades to finish.
That being said, I have a system that is up to date. This does not say that I know what each and every package downloaded and installed does for the system. Some things cause repercussions.
In this case, the repercussions are in an arch-related Live USB boot system wherein I use a cachedir of pacman packages which can be installed via pacman -U into the live system. This live system is not subject to archlinux upgrades which permit the use of pacman .gz and pacman .xz packages.
Therefore when utilizing xz packages in the cachedir, pacman -U cannot install xz extension packages (nor can it delete them since it cannot handle a "corrupt" package).
What has happened is the archlinux admins have decided to utilize the xz format and have provided for it . in a normal sense for usual download and installs.
It seems that cachedir packages installed via pacman -U do not fit the "normal" install mode. Therefore, the corrupt package result.
The cachedir I utilize saves time and is a raid cache which installs rapidly. It has 16 gb of storage available.
Whazzup? I need to know how to provide for a compatible pacman -U install of both gz and xz packages in a live usb archlinux based OS.
Certainly the pacman -U cammand is not dead yet. But it isn't compatible with the xz format.
I have used my raid cache for two years or more and now its defunct.
Allan:
Is xz format useable with a cache array utilizing pacman -U to install cached packages? If it is, what change is necessary to permit the install of xz "corrupt" packages.

RAC Crashed due to Corrupted Blocks

Hi,
I've got a RAC system which was crashed due to couple of corrupted blocks. This is 10g r2 standard edition 3 node system with ASM disk.
Is there any way where I can get this system up and running avoiding these corrupted blocks.
Thanks,
Kam.

Step 1: Identify the currupted blocks
Option1:
Following queries will help you identify which block is currupted.
##Read from v$backup_corruption
SELECT distinct 'Data Block# '|| block# || ' of Data File '|| name || ' is corrupted.'
FROM v$backup_corruption a, v$datafile b
WHERE a.file# = b.file#;
##Read from v$copy_corruption
SELECT distinct 'Data Block# '|| block# || ' of Data File '|| name || ' is corrupted.'
FROM v$copy_corruption a, v$datafile b
WHERE a.file# = b.file#;
Option2:
Use DBVERIFY utility to identify currupted blocks.
Ex:
$ dbv file=system_ts_01.dbf start=9 end=25 blocksize=16384 logfile=dbvsys_ts.log feedback=2
Step2: Repair currupted block
Once currupted blocks are identified, use RMAN (assuming you still have the backups without currupted blocks), to recover those blocks.
Recovering Data blocks Using Selected Backups:
# restore from backupset
BLOCKRECOVER DATAFILE 9 BLOCK 13 DATAFILE 2 BLOCK 19 FROM BACKUPSET;
# restore from datafile image copy
BLOCKRECOVER DATAFILE 9 BLOCK 13 DATAFILE 2 BLOCK 19 FROM DATAFILECOPY;
# restore from backupset with tag "mondayAM"
BLOCKRECOVER DATAFILE 9 BLOCK 13 DATAFILE 2 BLOCK 199 FROM TAG = mondayAM;
# restore using backups made before one week ago
BLOCKRECOVER DATAFILE 9 BLOCK 13 DATAFILE 2 BLOCK 19 RESTORE
UNTIL 'SYSDATE-7';
# restore using backups made before SCN 100
BLOCKRECOVER DATAFILE 9 BLOCK 13 DATAFILE 2 BLOCK 19 RESTORE UNTIL SCN 100;
# restore using backups made before log sequence 7024
BLOCKRECOVER DATAFILE 9 BLOCK 13 DATAFILE 2 BLOCK 19 RESTORE
UNTIL SEQUENCE 7024;
For example,
$rman target =rman/rman@rmanprod
RMAN> run {
2> allocate channel ch1 type disk;
3> blockrecover datafile 9 block 13 datafile 2 block 19;
4> }
If the currupted block's segment is an index, rebuilding index will take take care of the currupted block.

Cannot backup iPhone 3GS to my computer after upgrading to IOS 5.0 due to "corrupt backup file"

How do I sync my 3GS to my computer after upgrading to IOS 5.0.1 and getting message "corrupt backup file, delete and retry"?

Firefox 3.6.16 then V4 greying out after opening when I try to access the menu. Suspect due to an extension, which I will attempt to track. IE and Chrome are fine with much the same extensions. Does anyone have a similar issue?

Fast AMD Athlon multi core desktop. Linux on other my machines doesn't have this issue and versions there are up to 3.6.16 now. Haven't been able to isolate it to a particular cause yet. When I can get another user to back up their bookmarks I'll completely uninstall Firefox and reinstall to see if a clean install has the same issues. I'll then add extensions gradually, checking each time.

Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.
