Developer folder trashed - Help please

Hi all,
I have decided to clean my Macbook Pro and endeavored on deleting all developer folder (about 5000 files). I have also tried to sort out permissions and repair disc. However, I got a message saying that the disc can not be repaired and that I should resolve the issue by rebooting and pressing one of the keys. After the process finished I got a confirmation that the disc cannot be repeired.
I assume the problem is with deleting the Developer folder.
Is there any way I could fix it without spending money in a repair shop?
The original installation disc is gone though.
I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Hi Frank,
Thank you for response.
The computer is MacBook pro 2010 and there is no warranty. I am looking for a solution to avoid the, possibly, colossal repair cost.
The MacBook runs on both, Windows and OS. When I try to run OS a light grey screen appears with Apple logo on it and below there is a spinning dark grey "sun", below the "sun" there is a darker grey loading stripe. Once the loading reaches third of the distance the MacBook shuts down without a noise.
Oh, it runs on the latest OS.
Could that still be hardware failure?
Many thanks,
Arkadiusz

    The date and time has to be in the format:

    I am attaching my code below,

  • Ask for a way to learn Oracle and Developer 2000. HELP PLEASE!!

    Hi,
    I want to learn Oracle database and developer 2000. So I need the softwares.I am going to download
    1. Oracle Forms Developer/Server Release 6i for Windows NT
    2. Oracle8i Personal Edition on NT
    Before download them, I want to know if they can work together. I am in Australia, do you know where I can get the free softwares, or with lower price.
    If you have another way for self-training, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sue

    They do work together, though the installation process is moderately complicated. You may want to check this web site: http://www.chow1.myweb.nl/
    This site has some experiences and procedures that have worked in the past for this combination.
    You should also check Amazon.com or your local tech bookstore for books on Developer.

  • I-TUNES LIBARAY FOLDER - URGENT HELP PLEASE!!!!!

    Hi,
    I am running VISTA.
    I have all my I-TUNES Libary music in folder on my External Hard drive, so it make's It Easier for if i ever swap my computer.
    Im having a bit of a problem.
    Even tho I have Pointed I-TUNES at my EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE and have ensured that Itunes is Ogernized. It appears that I have music in other Places on my computer for some Reason.
    Can any-one tell me,how I make sure that all my Music is in ONE, folder on my external hard drive??????
    MY under standing is that if i create a folder on my External hard drive then point I-TUNES AT THAT FOLDER THEN ConsolidaTE....is this teh right thing to DO ?
    And when i IMPORT A CD for example, that the Music goes to the I-TUNES folder rather than some wHere else on my Compter

    That shouldn't happen, normally consolidate is safe.
    Check that the location of your iTunes Music folder is correct. i.e. is is set to the folder when you put your music.
    If you ever start iTunes with the drive disconnected or otherwise unavailable, iTunes will go back to the default location for your iTunes Music folder on the c: drive.
    Is it possible that that happened, it seems the most likely cause of the problem.
    If that's not it. Check your new Music folder to see if your files really are there.
    Then you can check where iTunes thinks they are by opening iTunes Library.xml with WordPad.
    Look for lines starting:
    <key>Location</key>
    These contain file paths, but the space character is replaced with %20.
    Check a few of those, that's where ioTunes thinks your msuic is located.

  • Setting up Eclipse for C++ OpenGL development on Arch (Help, please!)

    I've recently switched over to Arch (and love it) from Windows 7, and am trying to start developing in OpenGL using C++. I've used Eclipse a lot on the Windows side for Java development, but I'm having trouble referencing the OpenGL libraries in the C++ stuff.
    My code is as follows:
    #include <GL/gl.h>
    #include <GL/freeglut.h>
    int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    glutInit(&argc, argv);
    return 0;
    I don't believe the problem's there because the code won't even begin to compile.
    I tried to find and select the libraries I need in the project properties, but I really have no idea what I'm doing in there. In the current state of things, this is my console output:
    **** Build of configuration Debug for project CGame ****
    make all
    Building target: CGame
    Invoking: Cross G++ Linker
    g++ -L/usr/include/GL -o "CGame" ./main.o -l/usr/include/GL
    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l/usr/include/GL
    collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
    make: *** [CGame] Error 1
    **** Build Finished ****
    This is what some parts of Eclipse's configuration look like:
    Can anybody lend me a hand? I've been searching around on the Internet for a little while now, but I'm getting tired of all the shitty information there is. Many thanks if you can point out how to include the OpenGL/freeglut libraries in my project. If you want to see how my Eclipse stuff is configured, I can show you over Skype or TeamViewer.

    Got it working? Great!
    Personally, I use the GLFW window library for OpenGL coding. You can get it by:
    pacman -S glfw
    triangle.cpp
    //========================================================================
    // This is a small test application for GLFW.
    // The program opens a window (640x480), and renders a spinning colored
    // triangle (it is controlled with both the GLFW timer and the mouse).
    //========================================================================
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <GL/glfw.h>
    int main( void )
    int width, height, x;
    double t;
    // Initialise GLFW
    if( !glfwInit() )
    fprintf( stderr, "Failed to initialize GLFW\n" );
    exit( EXIT_FAILURE );
    // Open a window and create its OpenGL context
    if( !glfwOpenWindow( 640, 480, 0,0,0,0, 0,0, GLFW_WINDOW ) )
    fprintf( stderr, "Failed to open GLFW window\n" );
    glfwTerminate();
    exit( EXIT_FAILURE );
    glfwSetWindowTitle( "Spinning Triangle" );
    // Ensure we can capture the escape key being pressed below
    glfwEnable( GLFW_STICKY_KEYS );
    // Enable vertical sync (on cards that support it)
    glfwSwapInterval( 1 );
    do
    t = glfwGetTime();
    glfwGetMousePos( &x, NULL );
    // Get window size (may be different than the requested size)
    glfwGetWindowSize( &width, &height );
    // Special case: avoid division by zero below
    height = height > 0 ? height : 1;
    glViewport( 0, 0, width, height );
    // Clear color buffer to black
    glClearColor( 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f );
    glClear( GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT );
    // Select and setup the projection matrix
    glMatrixMode( GL_PROJECTION );
    glLoadIdentity();
    gluPerspective( 65.0f, (GLfloat)width/(GLfloat)height, 1.0f, 100.0f );
    // Select and setup the modelview matrix
    glMatrixMode( GL_MODELVIEW );
    glLoadIdentity();
    gluLookAt( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, // Eye-position
    0.0f, 20.0f, 0.0f, // View-point
    0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f ); // Up-vector
    // Draw a rotating colorful triangle
    glTranslatef( 0.0f, 14.0f, 0.0f );
    glRotatef( 0.3f*(GLfloat)x + (GLfloat)t*100.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f );
    glBegin( GL_TRIANGLES );
    glColor3f( 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f );
    glVertex3f( -5.0f, 0.0f, -4.0f );
    glColor3f( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f );
    glVertex3f( 5.0f, 0.0f, -4.0f );
    glColor3f( 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f );
    glVertex3f( 0.0f, 0.0f, 6.0f );
    glEnd();
    // Swap buffers
    glfwSwapBuffers();
    } // Check if the ESC key was pressed or the window was closed
    while( glfwGetKey( GLFW_KEY_ESC ) != GLFW_PRESS &&
    glfwGetWindowParam( GLFW_OPENED ) );
    // Close OpenGL window and terminate GLFW
    glfwTerminate();
    exit( EXIT_SUCCESS );
    Then you can compile the code above by:
    g++ triangle.cpp -o triangle -l GLFW -l GL
    It just draws a rotating triangle, but should get you started on something more exiting.

  • I want to purchase the apple ios developer subscription. Help Please?

    I want to purchase the apple ios developer subscription for $99.00, however during the signup I also selected MAC subscription. I wish to change this to ios only but the signup process will not allow me to remove MAC dev subscription from my cart and is forcing me to purchase nothing or purchase both. There doesn't appear to be an option, prior to purchase to edit cart contents and remove the MAC subscription. I have tried from multiple browsers with cookies enabled. Any one else experienced this?

    Just go to YouTube.com in safari and view the content that way. Create a shortcut on the home screen so you do not bleed to type in the address.

  • Want to backup my iphoto library to ext. drive, but it does not appear in the picture folder. When I select the picture folder iphoto opens, nothing to drag. Help please? 2013 iMac

    I want to back up my iphoto library to my external drive, but can't find it it in my computer's tree. When I click pictures in the tree, it launches iphoto and there is no file name or icon to drag. What am I missing? I'm sure it is simple what ever it is. Help please?

    now that you have found your iPhoto library you can drag it to the external drive to backup it up
    If you launch iPhoto does it work properly?
    However, when I tried to relocate it to the pictures folder, I get a message that I can't add the library because the folder is defective or damaged.
    Exactly what are you doing? what is the exact error message?
    And as to
    Should I trash the pref file for pictures folder and try again?
    I have no idea what you are speaking of - files and folers do not have Pref files - only applications have Pref files

  • HT202152 I have tried updating my apps and software but it says my startup disk or hard disk is full. I deleted a lot of files and apps but they won't be erased from the trash. Please help

    I have tried updating my apps and software but it says my startup disk or hard disk is full. I deleted a lot of files and apps but they won't be erased from the trash. Please help.

    For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    In Photos:
              File ▹ Show Recently Deleted ▹ Delete All
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside a photo or iTunes library will corrupt the library. Changes to such a library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install the app in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    For ODS:
    security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
    For GP:
    security execute-with-privileges /A*/GrandPerspective.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password.
    The application window will open behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will eventually show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier

    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.

    It looks like that the installation process of one of the applications have caused some trouble. One of them may have changed or added kext files.
    For that, the Window server crashed if you try to open a non Apple application like Firefox
    Start the system in safe mode by holding the shift key on power on.
    If save mode is reached, perform a permissions repair with the Disk Utility.
    Don't bother about upcoming warnings like "could not repair file xy" as that occur cause you use the tool on a running system and opened files can not get touched by the tool.
    After repair is done reboot system to normal and try to open Firefox.
