Deleted Novell Files Causing Problems

Hello,
I had Novell loaded onto my computer by my school's technology
center. I am now 2 years out of school and have not used it since. I
was recently trying to free up some hard drive space by deleting files I
wasn't using. I deleted all the Novell client stuff without going
through the proper uninstall procedures. When my computer boots it tells
me that certain Novell/Client32 files are missing that I apparently
need. I downloaded and unzipped the windows98 client software, but it
doesn't seem like it has been installed because my computer still can't
find the files it is looking for. I checked the unzipped files and saw
that they are present. I would be very grateful for any advice that
might help me resolve this problem. It is making it very difficult for
windows to run without lots of problems. Thanks, Brian Griffiths

Brian, you need to install the Novell client, and then use UNC32.EXE from
the download to uninstall the client. That should take care of the error
messages.
On a more general note, many people like to wipe their computers and
reinstall Windows on a regular basis, such as every six months, to get rid
of the junk that accumulates.

  • Can't delete any files - harddisk problem?

    Hi!
    I have a Macbook Pro 15" from medio 2009. Yesterday, I tried to download a file, then a message popped up that said, that the hard drive is full. However, I have 22 GB free space, so it didn't add up. Then I couldn't run any of the macintosh applications (i.e. Hard drive repair, time machine etc.). Moreso, I couldn't delete any files nor empty the trash can. An error -50 appears when I do that. When I reboot my mac it takes way too long to start up. Has anyone experienced some of the same problems? Do I need to replace my hard disk? If so, how can I backup my files if Time Machine doesn't work?
    Kind regards,
    MS

    If you want to preserve the data on the boot drive, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to fully boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    1. Boot from the Recovery partition or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    2. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

  • How to find corrupted file causing problem with FCP?

    I couldn't use Log and Transfer of FCP 7.0.3 for AVCHD from Canon Vixia.
    By starting from different user account Log and Transfer worked which means I have a corrupted file in the directory of original user account causing the error of Log and Transfer. What will be the easiest way to find the corrupted file?
    Milan

    If the new user acct test allows you to work with the software, it usually means a dead pref file. The easiest way to deal with these issues is to run Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager software (free) to delete the preference files in FCP.
    Open it up and look under the FCP settings in the Advanced tab. It gives you the option of selectively deleteing the various pref files associated with the app.
    First back up all your FCP prefs then start deleting them one by one. Once you figure out which one is the problem, restore all the others.

  • Linked cdr files causing problems in InDesign

    I have a Pagemaker file I am trying to open in InDesign. The PageMaker file has linked Corel Draw (cdr) files in the document. When I open the PageMaker file in InDesign, I am having problems with linked cdr files. The graphics come out blurry and I am unable to re-link them from InDesign. The linked cdr files are crisp and clean in PageMaker. If I try Windows\Links and then click on any cdr graphic, the options to relink, go to link, update link or edit orignal are all disabled. There are 2 machines with InDesign on them with the same specs and it happens on both of them.
    Here are the machine specs on software: Windows XP SP2, Adobe PageMaker 7.0, InDesign CS3 Ver 5.0, Corel Draw 8 Ver 8.232

    So my question is how to re-link these files? Can it be done with InDesign? Is there a compatability problem with InDesign and Corel Draw files? I would prefer not to have to start from scratch with the document.

  • Multiple palette files in a library/class file causes problems

    While developing a labview class, I wanted to set the default palette, so I added the relevant dir.mnu file to the class. Unfortunately, the class already had a dir.mnu file in it. On adding the file, I got some error message about a dependency change*(which makes no sesne, how can a palette file have any dependencies !). On saving the class and then attempting to reopen it, LabVIEW claims it is corrupt. Inspecting the xml .lvclass files reveals that when I added the new paletee file, LabVIEW actually just added a second reference to the palette file already in the project, which it then considers to be a problem when it tries loading the class. This is clearly a bug on a number of levels:
    It should not be possible for the user to induce LabVIEW to create corrupt xml files through such simple attempts to use documented features.
    The underlying problem is that LabVIEW appears to be using the conventional search/linking rules to load library items irrespective of whether they are a vi (which should ahve a unique name) or other file (which might well be legitimately non-unique).
    Given the near impossibility of renaming a palette file without breaking palette links this particular bug is extra annoying.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Sorry for the delay, it took me a little longer to reproduce the problem systematically. Attached are three zip files of the same trivial class. The only difference between them is the contents of the class file itself.
    The key point is that I have two folders in my class - Public and Protected (although I haven't actually set the access scope I realise). Each folder has a dir.mnu file in it and there is also a dir.mnu file in the main class folder. The class virtual folder structure maps directly to the on disc version.
    In the first zip file the dir.mnu files are not added to the class.
    In the second zip dile I added the dir.mnu by right clicking and doing Add file...  This is allowed because each dir.mnu has a distinct path. I then save the class file and close it.
    To get the third zip file, I reopen the class file. I  get a single dependency warning about dir.mnu in one of the sub folders. So I think "fine ok, somethign funny about that dir.mnu file" - note if I'm loading a whole heirarchy of classes I may be told LabVIEW is laoding the dir.mnu file from somewhere completely different in my class structure. I then save the class file to give the thrid zip file.
    The lvclass file in the third zip file is corrupt because it has multiple entries for the same file, because it didn't handle having more than 2 items conflicting.
    The correct behaviour would be not to invoke the conflicting item names for non vi/ctl document types. I could imagine that there would be similar problems if I had a say a whole range of say README.html files strewn over the place.

  • Deleted swc files causing an error

    Hi,
    I have built an AIR app using FB3 and have been playing
    around with styling it up. At first I was using flash cs4 to build
    skins and import them as swc files which worked fine but then I
    realised that I could get away with just using style sheets and so
    I deleted the swc files and all references to them that I could
    see. Now when I try to run the project I get an error saying that
    flex was unable to open the swc.
    I can't find where the error originates from or why it should
    still be looking for the file at all. I have tried cleaning the
    project and restarting FB but I cant clear this error.
    Anyone have any advice on this one?
    Cheers all

  • Would working from a locked project file cause problems?

    Hi all.
    working in FCP 4.5 on numerous Dual G5s (2.0 & 1.8 GHz) with sufficient RAM (4 GB+).
    I'm working on a large project with a number of editors and I've created projects that each editor can use as references to the material. I lock the reference projects so that if they inadvertantly make changes to them, they will be reminded that the changes will be lost when they close out of the project. A theory has arisen that we are seeing performance degredation due to conflicts with Autosave. By performance degredation, I mean that responsiveness decreases, and an occasional crash occurs. I'm just wondering if the concern is valid. I'm just wondering if the concern is valid. My feeling is that it's too intermittent to be autosave's fault. Has anyone come across this?
    thanks,
    jack

    nothing is written to the project file between saves, so it seems unlikely that your issues are related to their lock status. autosave only requires that a project has a pre-existing project file in order to work, so again, the issue would sem to be unrelated
    ... ok, so much for logic. the real resolution is likely only to come with be some controlled trial and error. see how you get on with unlocked project files and see if the performance issues disappear.

  • How to delete music file that is not downloaded into iTunes?

    Im having a problem deleting a file I asked to open a music file, with itunes.
    I was on a site called mp3skulls trying to listen and possibly download a file. I accidently requested it to be opened with itunes and as it did open with itunes and played. I can't simply delete it. It's not downloaded into my mac nor is it downloaded into itunes. It seems like it is being streamed from the site onto my itunes. I tried to find a delete option but there isn't one and i tried just dragging it to my trash can but it is still there playing.
    there is a symbol right in front of the name that looks like this ((.)) (there's a dot in the middle) if that helps anything.
    I just need to know how to delete this file cause i do not want to keep it.
    Thank you!

    If it is a system file and even if the file is corrupted, it cannot be deleted.
    Try reinstalling phone software using Nokia suite if the phone supports Nokia suite and an USB port.

  • Deleting iMovie files & exported movies causes errors in all of iLife

    I just went through quite an ordeal...
    In an attempt to clean up some space, I deleted a bunch of my iMovie project files and movies after backing them up (files in the default Movies folder). I have deleted iMovie projects before with no issues.
    This time, it caused errors in iDVD, iMovie, and iPhoto...it would say: "Connection failed. The server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and try again." It would say this over and over and over again and often completely hang up my application so that I would have to force quit. This would repeat itself over and over...
    I read about this in other forums and erased .plist files in User > Library, etc...This solved the problem for other people, but it kind of made it worse for me. Long story short, I ended up having to restore from Time Machine my entire system just to get iLife working again... I also searched for Aliases and externally referenced libraries or files, and I do not have any.
    So now I have those files again. I want to delete them again. But I'm afraid! (P.S. This may also be related to deleting the Aperture Trial Library in the Photos folder...I am also posting about that to the Aperture forum.)
    Does anyone know what the deal with this is? How come before I did not have problems but am now? How do I safely delete iMovie files without having this happen again?
    THANK YOU!

    iMovie is a non-destructive editor, meaning that all original clips are maintained in the folder, even after editing. Until you render the movie to DVD, all the original files are still "in the background". Kind of hard for me to explain. Others here could give more technical details. You would have to delete your movie from the folder to regain all the hard drive space.
    If your idea is to archive your movies, a better method is to record them back to tape. Otherwise, get an external drive to store the finished movies and then delete the original files.
    One word of caution about emptying the iMovie trash. This has been known to cause problems with a work in progress and it is generally advised to leave the iMovie trash alone until your project is finished and burned to a DVD.

  • I am having problems gettting my mail to work ... Mac telling me that my start up disk id full and to delete some files to free up space ... have done this but when i open mail from the dock it just brings up the colour wheel and nothing happening

    I am having problems gettting my mail to work ... Mac telling me that my start up disk id full and to delete some files to free up space ... have done this but when i open mail from the dock it just brings up the colour wheel and nothing happening ... it shows when you right click on the mail icon that " application not responding"

    If your hard drive is getting full, you need to free up, at least, 20 GBs of space on your iMac's hard drive.
    If your Mac is running a fairly recent version of OS X, here are some general guidelines.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Other things you can do to gain space.
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    When you install and launch it, let it run the automatic ans S.M,A.R.T. tests,  then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the tabs that have the ability to clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
    Good Luck!

  • Weird problem how to delete a file in the cloud

    Hello there,
    I'm now a proud member of the Adobe Creative Cloud.
    Once signed in everything looks normal and I can upload a file simply by dragging and droppping.
    Now the problem: i'm not able to DELETE a file; there is no trash icon like in the online video of Adobe.
    If I select a file, the only actions on the left marker are available:
    - Post Publicly (behance)
    - Send Link
    - Move
    - Rename
    - Archive.
    If I use the main blue button (Actions), the only actions I see are:
    - Create a folder
    - Upload
    - Search
    Please reply to this problem, kind regards.
    If you want I'm happy to send a screenshot.

  • Problem with FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE in deleting a file on server.

    Hi All,
    My Task is to delete a file with version number 6 and rename all other files, so that my new file will be version 0.

    Though, this is working fine in debugging mode I can see the file getting deleted in regular run, which is followed by renaming some files, it is NOT working in regular run.

    Problem resolved.
    We need ensure all files which are opened [by OPEN DATASET], are CLOSED before trying any operation like DELETE or RENAME on the files.
