Create disk image using Disk Utility porblem

Hi All,
When I try to create a new disk image of my harddrive, either on a networked drive or on a local firewire drive, I get a message saying " Cannot create image, the resource is busy"
Any ideas ??
Ian

RAM is not the problem then.
I suggest you verify your startup disk in Disk Utility and, if necessary, repair it with your install disk, then repair permissions.
Please post back with results.

check for the files in ORACLE_HOME/database. You have dropped existing instance and creating service again, move all the files to other folder then create using ORADIM

Creating Disk Utility-compatible CD-R Image

This is something I´ve been wondering about for a long time.
Every once in a while I need to transfer a premaster cd to a customer via an FTP-server. Unfortunately Waveburner will only BURN a red book CD, not write a CDR-image to disk.
Has anybody figured out how to do this? Even if I re-import the burnt audio cd using Nero on a PC, neither Toast 8 nor the Disk Utility will open or burn this red book image correctly.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Toby

Argh. Thats indeed the old WB OSX problem.
emagic's OS 9 Version of WB was able to do this.
Only way since the OS X port is to burn a CD and reimport it with Toast's copy function to create a .dmg.

Problem in creating 1 image using differnt images

Dear Fellows I want to create an image by using different images in byte array format. Images may be transparent or normal images. I want final result in byte array. I am using the following technique which is working fine but the problem with this technique is that it takes too much time to create an image. This is because I am using MediaTraker. If I delete the code of MediaTracker then program have undeterministic behavior i.e, sometimes it create the final image properly and sometimes nothing is displayed in final image.
I need some help from you. If anyone of you know the technique to draw image using different images without using mediaTracker kindly let me know.
Early replies will be appreciated
// here is the sample code which i m using for creating image
byte[] backgroundImage= // read 800 X 600 image from disk and convert it in to byte array
byte[] image1 = // read 200 X 200 image from disk and convert it in to byte array
byte[] transparentImage // read 300 X 300 transparent image from disk and convert it in to byte array
Image img=null;
Frame frame =new Frame();
frame.addNotify();
//creating BufferedImage object to store Final image
BufferedImage requiredImage= new BufferedImage(800,600,BufferedImage.SCALE_SMOOTH);
//get Graphics of BufferedImage created above
Graphics2D g=(Graphics2D) requiredImage.getGraphics();
///// begin draw back ground image
img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(backgroundImage);
try
MediaTracker mt = new MediaTracker(frame);
mt.addImage(img, 0); // adds image with ID 0
mt.waitForID(0);
}catch(Exception myex)
myex.printStackTrace();

Created an image using Apple 10.6.5 with Acrobat Pro 9.4.1 and CS 5

Greetings All. Have a Happy, Healty New Year.
As I open Acrobat Pro I am instructed to open Photoshop (or other App) first, which I did.
Again I opened Acrobat Pro and rec'v message stating Acrobat Pro was installed as part of a suite and in order to enable Acrobat Pro
I must open another CS 5 app. After closing the message Acrobat closes.
Acrobat Pro was set up earlier with the CS 4 suite and upgraded as we go.
Our CS 5 purchase did not include Acrobat Pro.
Is there a workaround for this or do I need to uninstall 9 and install 10.
Would prefer keeping 9.4.1 for now.
Thanx
...mhu

So Adobe-ites,
here is the answer - when Acrobat 9.4 was installed it was installed with CS4. When readying to install CS5, 4 was uninstalled completely.
I had to re-install any CS4 app., 9.4 recognizes it and problem was solved. 9.4.1 works just fine.
thanx

Using Disk Utility to create a partition on an external drive

Hi Everyone
I have a 250gb external HD drive which is currently split into two partitions of Fat32. I'd like to use this drive for storing images of OS X, but when I tried to create an image using the OS X startup DVD, I was told that FAT32 didn't allow large enough file sizes (or something along those lines) in order for me to backup my OS X.
Disk Utility appears to offer the ability to split partitions on the external drive, i.e. I can select the largest of the two partitions and choose to split it into two 96gb partitions. However, will this be a destructive partition process, and can I reasonably expect my external hard disk to be reformatted with a 96gb Mac OS X formatted partition whilst still keeping two FAT32 partitions and all the data that resides on them?
Any help is much appreciated!

You will not be splitting existing partitions. Instead, you will be creating a new partitions from scratch.
Run Disk Utility. Select the hard drive to be partitioned. Make sure you select the hard drive in the sidebar, not the volume indented below the drive. Go to the Partition tab. If you want one or more of the partitions to be MS-DOS, you must first click on the Options... button. Select the Master Boot Record option and OK. Select Volume Scheme of 3 Partitions. Now set up your three new partitions as you want them, in terms of size and format. For the Mac partition, select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format.

Can't create disk image of external disk

I just switched from a PowerBook G4 running OS 10.4, to a MacBook Pro running 10.5. I'm trying to create a disk image of the old machine's hard disk, as a backup. Before doing this, I ran Disk Utility to make sure none of my disks were in need of repair.
I started up the old machine in Target Disk mode and connected it to the new one. In Disk Utility, I selected the disk, and clicked Create Disk Image. I told it to save the disk image as uncompressed and writable, on a disk that has plenty of space. So it chugs along for about an hour, creating an 80GB image.
Then once the image is done, I try to mount it and get an error, saying that the disk image has no mountable file systems. I've done this four times already, each time with the same result. In addition, if I try to restart after creating the image, the system hangs.
Any ideas why this might be happening? Are there any known bugs with Disk Utility in Leopard? Interestingly, I tried to do the same thing with Carbon Copy Cloner, and ran into a different error (it thought that it couldn't mount the newly-created image).

Yesterday I bought a Maxtor Basic external harddrive for my mac.
Followed the instructions, using Disk Utility, formatted the hd, then I tried to create a 60 gb blank encrypted disk image but failed twice; after clicking 'Create', Disk Utility does not prompt to create a password.
First time Disk Utility just hangs; there's no respond for 30mins, so i force quit it and reformatted the drive, again.
Then I tried to create a 10mb encrypted disk image and the box appears to enter a password, so I presume it was working fine.
Again, I tired to create the 60gb blank image. This time, i left it overnight, thinking maybe it just takes a longer time. No prompt for passwords, and in the morning, the msg I got was 'No drive found' or something like that, because the drive has ejected itself. (???)
Anyone has any idea why? I could create the image on my mac and throw it in the external drive, but my mac onlyhas 15 gb of space.
Let me know if this sounds like a problem with the Maxtor so I could exchange it ASAP.

Cannot create new image even though verify disk says it appears to be ok

i cant create a new image using disc utility (input output error) even though verify disk says its ok. what is wrong?

I'm not aware of other reasons, at least with the scant evidence we have so far.
Did you try this in DB?

Multi-Session CD Burning using Disk Utility v 11.1

I am trying to burn multi-session disk images (*.dmg) to a DVD-RW disc. I am using the Disk Utility which is supposed to do this. You first create a disk image using the utility, then you burn each one to the disk using its Burn tool function. I have followed all the Help directions.
The issue is that you need to check the box "Leave disc appendable" so that multiple sessions can be burned. When I try this, this check box feature is grayed out and I can't enable it.
I have repaired the permissions and the disk, this does not fix the issue.
Any help would be appreciated...

It appears that multisession DVD's are not supported properly through DIsk Utility.
As ever, you have choices.
There is the hard way (that has the redeeming feature of being free): http://www.math.nyu.edu/aml/CDwrite.html (yes this covers DVD's too).
There is the easy way (that costs a bit of cash, although your first 20 burns are free):
http://freeridecoding.com/burnagainfs/index.html
However with a DVD-RW you can erase the disk and reuse it with Disk Utility. Just click on your DVD drive in the left hand panel of Disk Utility and follow the instructions.
Cheers,
Rodney

Create Image using MDT 2013

Hi ,
I am quite new for MDT 2013. I have recently installed MDT 2013 in my Windows Server 2012.
Now , I do have about 10 physical machine with different hardware specification inside. I have installed Windows 8.1 with all required software in it and now I want to distribute the same image in all 10 another physical machine.
Can anyone provide me the steps to implement this...
Do I need to create the image using image x software and then use it as a standard image to be deploy it in rest of the systems..
Thank you...

I was getting exact same error.
here is what I did to fix it.
You need to do all this in a virtual envinronment.
1- import Windows 8.1 x64 from the DVD and add it to your listed os in MDT
2- create standard task sequence and select the OS you imported in step one. you need to add suspend to your TS ( look it up on how to )
3- For some reason WinPe x64 bit kept giving error during deployment so I used WinPe x86.
4- import Winpe x86 boot.wim into your WDS if you use Pxe boot or create a boot disk from the ISO and boot your VM from it.
5- deploy windows 8.1 x64 to your VM ,make sure to select " capture image ".
make all the necessary changes when windows is installed and MDT suspends the deployment, take snapshot of your VM , and then cintinue the deployment to finish the capture.
6- import the new captured image into MDT
7- creates new standard TS or modify your existing one to deploy the newly captured image.
8- update your deployment share and start the deployment of your new image.

Create a new Buffered Image using Raster and ColorModel

Sorry , I crosspost this message,because no one reply.
Recently,I write a programme combining C++ and Java .
The C++ part create a array containing image data in form of BI_RGB and biBitCount==32.
The java part create a image using Raster and ColorModel like this:
   static int[] data ;
   DataBuffer db = new DataBufferInt(data, data.length);
   WritableRaster wr =Raster.createPackedRaster(db, 1024,768, 32, null);
   ColorModel cm = new DirectColorModel(32,0xff0000,0x00ff00,0x0000ff);
   img = new BufferedImage(cm, wr, false, null);But it doesn't work .
it report this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Raster sun.awt.im
age.SunWritableRaster@dff3a2 is incompatible with ColorModel DirectColorModel: r
mask=ff0000 gmask=ff00 bmask=ff amask=0

Help displaying an image using the canvas!!!!!!!!

Hey guys
I don't know whether I am not grasping some concepts well.I have been going mad trying to get the code working
Here is the code
import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import java.io.*;
* @author Administrator
* @version
public class MyMIDlet extends javax.microedition.midlet.MIDlet implements CommandListener{
private Display display;
private MyCanvas canvas;
private Command exitcommand = new Command("Exit",Command.SCREEN,1);
private Image source;
public MyMIDlet() {
protected void startApp() throws MIDletStateChangeException{
if (display == null){
initMIDlet();
protected void pauseApp() {
protected void destroyApp(boolean unconditional)throws MIDletStateChangeException {
exitMIDlet();
public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable d) {
if (c == exitcommand){
exitMIDlet();
protected void initMIDlet() {
display = Display.getDisplay(this);
canvas = new MyCanvas(this);
System.err.println("Canvas instiated succesfully");
canvas.addCommand(exitcommand);
canvas.setCommandListener(this);
display.setCurrent(canvas);
public void exitMIDlet() {
notifyDestroyed();
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import java.io.*;
public class MyCanvas extends Canvas implements Runnable {
private MIDlet midlet;
private Image offscreen;
private Image currentimage;
private Graphics g;
//MID profile application
/** Creates a new instance of MyCanvas */
public MyCanvas(MIDlet midlet) {
this.midlet = midlet;
try{
currentimage = Image.createImage("/bird0.png");
}catch(IOException e){
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
if (currentimage!= null){
System.err.println("Image create successfully");
}else{
System.err.println("Image not created");
try{
Thread t = new Thread(this);
t.start();
}catch(Execption e){}
protected void paint(Graphics g){
Graphics saved = g;
int x = getWidth();
int y = getHeight();
g.setColor(255,255,255);
g.drawImage(currentimage,x,y,g.TOP|g.VCENTER);
public void run() {
repaint();
I know for a fact that the Canvas class 's paint method is called by the system and not the application. This poses a problem for me because I am not sure how to pass the image to the piant method, so that it can be painted.
When I run the program(using J2ME wtk04), this is the outcome.
Image created succesfully
Canvas instiatiated successfully
null
Here are my questions
1) when is the paint method precisely called by the system?after a reference to the canvas class is created?
2) is it wise to create the image when instiating the canvas class?( initially created the image using a separate thread)-when sould the image be created?
3)how to let the application know when to use the image when painting the display area?
I am just trying the logistics here. It is very crucial to me to understand the bolts of this as the core f my project fouses on the man machine interface development.(For the project, the cilent application is quering for the map using HTTP)
I use a png file of size 161 bytes. Is that too big for testing purposes.
I would all the help that I can get. thanks in advance

1) when is the paint method precisely called by the system?after a reference to the canvas class is created?
After the canvas is set as the current display, and after that, after the repaint() is called.
2) is it wise to create the image when instiating the canvas class?( initially created the image using a separate thread)-when sould the image be created?
It's better to create the image in the very begining of the program e.g. in the midlet initialization. You can call the created image as often as you like later on
3)how to let the application know when to use the image when painting the display area?
you have to tell it :))
you can use if-then, switch, or anything else
and you can use clipping too
