Did 10.5.1 Install?  I cant' tell!

Since I usually install combo updates rather than using Software Update, I downloaded the 110 MB 10.5.1 update from Apple and installed it. When I ran the installer, it started chugging away without shutting down the computer first (which I though Leopard was supposed to do when installing now).
Anyway, the installer got to the "One Minute Remaining" Progress meter and then just hung there for over 20 minutes. I restarted and system profiler shows '10.5.1' but how do I know everything installed properly? I tried to run the installer a second time, but got the same result.
TIA

Use the Mac OS X 10.5.1 Update combo installer and boot into Safe Mode and install it from there.

  • Help did 9.1 update and now cant find where my screen  savers

    hi i just updated my system to 9.1 and now i cant find the screen savers there is no screen saver control panel .looked every where i u can help me i would be indebted to u i am a newbie been using windows for ten year im in lov e with this mac !!!!!

    Hi, alottab -
    i beilive it has a folder named previos system
    That would indicate that you did perform a Clean Install.
    The result of a Clean Install is that you get a brand new, "clean" System Folder of the new OS, and the old one is renamed to "Previous System Folder". The "Previous" one contains all the items that had been in the OS before the update; the new one does not.
    Your screensaver software should be in the Previous System Folder. None of its files are accessed by the new OS, which is why you would not have access to the control panel for that screensaver software. In order to use the old items in the new OS, you would need to move the software from the Previous System Folder to the appropriate locations in the new one.
    Notes -
    1) Do not replace any of the OS 9 software with items from the Previous System Folder. Older third-party (non-Apple) software items may or may not work in OS 9, but be sure to not replace any OS 9 system software items with ones from OS 8.
    2) Some OS 8 software will not work in OS 9. In particular, this includes some screensaver software such as After Dark. As Kenichi Watanabew pointed out, there is no native (built-in) screensaver software for OS 9 and earlier; all such is third-party software.
    <hr>
    There are some screensavers available which will work in OS 9; some are free, some are not. Here are some sources -
    Screen Gear - Screen Saver, Image Displayer
    MacScreenSavers.com - Free screen savers
    VersionTracker: Screen Savers
    Free Macintosh: Apple Screen Savers
    Pure Mac: Screen Savers
    Filedudes
    Tucows Macintosh
    Be sure to read the description of any of those you are interested in to be sure they will work in OS 9.
    Screensaver programs can be useful and even fun, but they are not necessary. In OS 9 you can use the Energy Saver control panel to auto-sleep the machine and monitor after a delay of your choosing. I set mine to sleep only the monitor, and not the machine - wakeup is near instantaneous.

  • Time Machine did massive backup after installing/running iPhoto '09

    After installing iLife '09 and running iPhoto '09 on Wednesday and Thursday morning, Time Machine proceeded on Thursday p.m. to perform a massive backup (103GB). This is interestingly the same size as my iPhoto library. The library has about 40,000 pictures in it. All I did in iPhoto after installing it was check out Faces (took 5 hours to initially create the Faces thumbnails) and Places. I did not import any new pictures. Today it is now doing a 23GB backup. I have used iPhoto some more since the 103GB backup to name more Faces, but haven't done much else on my Mac in that time.
    How do I determine what exactly was backed up - to verify my suspicion it backed up my iPhoto Library? Is the backup performed only on the files that are added/changed, or entire directories that get files added/changed in them?
    Have I effectively lost 103GB of backup space as I certainly did not add 103GB of new data?

    You could try an application like Time Tracker, it will tell you what was backed up and when. http://www.charlessoft.com/TimeTracker.zip
    Is the backup performed only on the files that are added/changed, or entire directories that get files added/changed in them?
    It seems as though any folder/file changes will prompt Time Machine to do a backup of those items. Even simple changes, like a rename or relocation. Although it would not backup an entire directory if only a file/folder inside had the changes done. If that makes sense.
    Have I effectively lost 103GB of backup space as I certainly did not add 103GB of new data?
    I would assume so. You are the first post I've seen to comment on iPhoto '09 (at least here in the Time Capsule section), so I'm interested in getting your future responses. I know with iPhoto 6 (iLife '06) that those who upgraded to iLife '08 got entirely new backups like this when they converted their library. So we'll see if that is the case again.

  • Did the Adobe download & install complete on my laptop

    did the adobe download & install complete on my laptop? How do I activate it?  I was notified during the installation that I had to close explorer to let the installation finish. After that I was called away from my laptop (which I left on). There was a normal screen when I returned. I'm concerned I may have missed important info/ instructions.

    I have little experience on my laptop.  It seems to be working, though at times when I try to watch a news story, it'll either play (stopping often) or tell me I need to get the flashplayer to continue. 
       I'm on a Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop, using Windows 7 Home Premium.

  • My headphone jack no longer works.  I just upgraded software and did all the iCloud install.

    my headphone jack no longer works.  I just upgraded software and did all the iCloud install.  Any ideas?

    It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
    I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):
    http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=HP6100&search_search type=s-002
    Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
    I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

    I have a Macbook Pro and have just purchased a GSP hidden objects game. It says on the box that it is compatible and when I try and install it it tells me that installation has been successful. However, it then says that PowerPC games not supported. Help?
    No game icon appears on my desktop and I don't know what I can do.
    Really ****** off as i've not played these games since switching from a windows PC to a Mac and was really excited!! All I want is to be able to play my new game that arrived in the post today. If anyone can help I would be really really grateful....
    The game says that it needs Mac OS X 10.3 or higher to run so I don't understand what the problem is or how I can fix it!!

    beckyj3,
    the last version of Mac OS X which supported running PowerPC apps on Intel Macs was Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). If you’d like to play this PowerPC game on your Intel MacBook Pro, then you’ll need to install Snow Leopard on it and boot into Snow Leopard. (Note that the last MacBook Pro which natively supported Snow Leopard was the Early 2011 model.)
    The game was almost certainly published before Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) was released, so back then, all versions of “Mac OS X 10.3 or higher” would have supported running that PowerPC game.

    Do you have access to another Mac with a disk drive?  If so you can do it in one of two ways:
    1 - on the Mac with the optical drive launch Disk Utility and make a disk image of the iLife 11 disk. Connect the two Macs together and transfer the disk image to your MacBook Air.  Mount the disk image and install from it.  I have my iLife disks saved that way for quick and easy reinstall when necessary.
    2 - connect the two Mac together so you can access the MBA from the Mac with the disk drive. Insert the iLife disk, and install from the second Mac to the MBA.

    You can't install Lion over Leopard. To install Lion, a requirement is Snow Leopard. So you can either upgrade to Snow Leopard first or you can make a bootable Lion install disc and use that to wipe your hard drive and install a fresh copy of Lion.
    So to make a disk would require you to purchase Snow Leopard and upgrade to 10.6.8 so you can use the App Store, unless you have access to another computer to download it from with your Apple ID. Remember it is about a 3.4GB download.
    Good Luck

    Your HD may be crashed, so you probably should use the oringinal install discs to run Apple Hardware Test in extended mode. If error codes appear this confirms a hardware failure. In addition you cannnot repair the HD using Disk Utility from the startup disk, you have to use the origninal Install discs that shipped with the computer or the most up-to-date version of OS X on a disc that you have.

  • IPhoto has dissappeared off my laptop. Says it is installed, but cant find it. All photos gone

    iPhoto has dissappeared off my laptop. Says it is installed, but cant find it. All photos gone

    Do a Spotlight for "iPhoto.app" and see what yo get. If that fails download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "iPhoto.app" in the file name.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If the application is hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.

    If you mean the Developer preview of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion you need to be posting this to the appropriate developer forum or AppleSeed forum. We can't help you with software that hasn't been released.
    Your second question seems to be related to iTunes Match, yes? Try posting it in that forum.

    I'm a Pro Tools user, who just did an "Archive and Install" installation of 10.5.8 over my 10.4.11 on my 2 Ghz G5, now Pro Tools won't launch.  I checked the extensions folder and sure enough, the digidesign extensions were left behind.  Can I revert back to the "Archive" of my 10.4.11 System from the "Previous Systems" folder?  If not, what's the point of creating the "archive"?

    Did you select "Preserve User Settings"?
    Archive and Install installation automatically moves existing system files to a folder named Previous System, then installs Mac OS X again. (See tip 3.) You cannot start up your computer using a Previous System folder, nor can you "re-bless" the Previous System folder. (See tip 1.)
    You can choose to preserve your user and network settings before installing. This option automatically moves existing users, Home directories, and network settings. This also skips the Setup Assistant after installation.
    Note: Because the "Preserve user and network settings" option moves, not copies, existing users, Home directories, and network settings, from the Previous Systems folder to the newly installed System, these items will not exist in the Previous Systems folder after the Archive and Install is complete.
