Error when attempting to restore from disks.

I am trying to restore the PB G4 12-inch. It goes through most of the process and then says there was an error and to restart. I've tried modifying the installation, but it is still doing the same thing. Prior to this there were no problems at all. Bought a new MB Pro and brother is buying the wife's G4. I ran Apple HW Quick Test and no errors detected. Ran Extended Test and gives me an error code: 2STF/8/3:ATA-100 ata-6 - Master. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm a PC convert so don't let me down....

The way to write zero's to the file when you erase it is, in Disk Utility, choose the drive, then click erase, and click the security options screen. Here you can choose to write zero's once, or many times, which takes many times longer to run. Writing zero's once should do it for you. Click erase and let it go.
After writing zero's, Disk Utility should be clean if you repair the disk, however, if it fails due to an error, the drive is a goner. If, however, Disk Utility is OK, but the AHT still says you have the same error, that says either the hard drive is bad or there is a logic board issue. If you have either of the TechTools programs around (if someone had Applecare, TechTool Deluxe is downloadable at no charge), they could also test the hard drive.
If you happen to have a 2.5" parallel ATA hard drive case handy (doesn't everyone ), you could remove the hard drive, put it in the case, and try it on your other mac notebook. If it works there, then that points to a logic board issue (and of course if it doesn't work, the hard disk is bad). Logic board replacement is around $350, and they might replace the hard drive too. You get that price taking your system to the Apple store and having them send the system to the Apple depot. If the case is banged up, they charge more, as the depot does whatever it can to put the system back into almost new shape.
Or you could replace the hard drive and hope that takes care of the problem - assuming it's not a logic board issue, a new drive would be the fix. Hard drive failures in notebooks between 3 and 5 years are not unusual. Apple can do that for a fee, or if you or a friend is handy, you can buy the drive and follow directions to replace it yourself. Or you can buy the drive and/or go to an Apple Authorized Service Provider and have them install it for you.
Replacement hard drive is 2.5" parallel ATA interface, not serial or SATA, which newer computers use. A selection from a site I use is http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010150380%201035907 889&name=ATA-6
Alot covered here, please post back with any questions.

1602 and 1604 Errors When Attempting to Restore/Update iPhone - Please Help

Hi, I've been having trouble with my iPhone 3GS and after wasting many days on trying to solve the problem, I am reaching out for help from those more knowledgeable than me. I have been having this problem for as long as I can remember (I've owned my iPhone for just under a year): whenever I attempt to Restore my iPhone or update its OS, I receive a 1602 or 1604 error on iTunes and the process stops with the iPhone wiped. iTunes refuses to continue the Restore and any further attempts result in the same error. I originally found this work around for the problem after an exhaustive search (4th post down):
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1363589
However, every time I wish to Restore or update, I have to follow these long, annoying, unusual steps, and, now that I am coming to the end of my year's warranty, I really want to fix this problem, or get it fixed by Apple if this is not possible.
The iPhone restores with no problem on another computer in my house, so I guess the problem is with my computer. I have taken the following steps (often many times over and in combination with each other) in my attempts to fix the problem, but with no success:
1. Uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes
2. Uninstalled and reinstalled iPhone drivers
3. Uninstalled and reinstalled all Apple software and drivers
4. Removed iTunes library, all music and any other iTunes files in music folder
5. Created a new user account, which is free from any old iTunes settings, opened iTunes and plugged in iPhone
6. Used different USB ports
7. Plugged in iPhone after being restored on other computer
I'm running out of ideas. Can anyone please help?
Thanks,
James

I had all of these problems, and I was able to fix them with the following process. Here is what I did:
My setup:
Apple Max OS 10.4.10, Mac G4, with 3rd party USB 2.0 card.
1. Upgrade to iTunes 7.6 and Quicktime 7.4, Restart and repair permissions
2. Purchase the iPod Touch Upgrade - It took two tries to purchase. I had to accept to two agreements, and then got an error. I purchased the upgrade again and got an instruction screen. iTunes appeared to download a very small file.
3. Sync my touch (I still had not upgraded to firmware 1.1.3)
4. The touch synced, but I had no new functions.
5. I clicked upgrade, and downloaded the 165GB file.
6. While the file was downloading I undocked my iPod touch and restarted it.
7. When the download was complete, it gave me an unknown error because my iPod was not connected.
8. I connected My iPod and tried to install the update. After several tries, I always got a 1602 error.
9. I restarted my computer and did a hard restart of my ipod touch. This did not work, I still had 1602 errors.
10. At this point, I chose to RESTORE my iPod Touch.
11. After the restore, I chose not to restore any content, and just tested the firmware update. EVERYTHING worked great!
12. I synced my iPod touch while I watched the keynote. 45 minutes later my sync was complete and 14 Gig of content was restored. The new functions are great. I have already read my .Mac email.

Error When Trying to Restore from iTunes Backup

I had to erase and re-install the operating system. I thought I had iTunes covered by burning an iTunes backup to a CD, but when trying to restore iTunes from the CD it will restore a few songs and then give an error message that it was unable to read or write to my hard drive. I looks as though it restored the music that I owned and put on the computer but not the tunes I had purchased from the iTunes store and not the playlists. I did not know enough to burn the /music file. Is there anything I can do to get the burned CD to restore?

Contacts are not part of the backup. They are seperate and either you need to sync them with an email program such as outlook or use icloud mail,contacts, and calendars on the phone. Unless you did that then the contacts are gone.

Input/output error when attempting to restore external HDD?

I have an old 1TB external HDD that corrupted a while ago, the drive still mounts and i can still see the files inside the drive, unfortunately opening the drive up crashes finder. As i have another 2TB external drive, my next idea was to create a second partition in my 2TB drive and then restore the old 1TB drive into the second partition of the 2TB drive using the disk utility. After a few minutes it comes up with the error message INPUT/OUTPUT error and then stops restoring it.
Any ideas folks as to where to go from here? what the problem might be? or what to try next?
many thanks
Ali

Ali,
your external 1 TB HDD might have a hardware fault which is preventing access to its files. Have you tried running your MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test, to see if it can detect a hardware-related problem with your external 1 TB HDD?

Network-related or Instance-specfic error when attempting remote connection from SSMS

Hello,
I have installed SQL Server express on a Win7 desktop and want to connect to it via SSMS on a laptop. I have set up a SQL login on the desktop so I can login, but when I try to connect to the instance from the laptop via SSMS I get the error 26 with saying
there is a network related or instance specific issue and that there is an error locating the Server/Instance specified.
I am trying to connect to a named instance on the SQL Server on the win desktop. Remote connections are enabled and TCP 1433 and UPD 1434 ports are open in Windows Firewall. Antything else I should watch for?
Thanks

Hi MrDAndersen,
According to your description, you come across the errors of pre-login handshake and wait operation timing out. Please help to post the full error log for further analysis.
Based on my research, this issue could occur when .NET Framework 4.5 and non-IFS BSP/LSP are installed on the machine, and non-IFS BSP/LSP interferes with the call to Winsock.
To work around the issue, you could use one of the two methods below.
1. Determine whether a non-IFS BSP or LSP is installed. You could use the "netsh WinSock Show Catalog" command and examine every Winsock Catalog Provider Entry item that is returned. If the 0x20000 bit is clear (not set), it is a non-IFS BSP or
LSP and remove the installed non-IFS Winsock LSPs. For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2568167
2. Download and apply .NET Framework 4.5.2:

"Unknown Error" when attempting to publish through Muse

I recently updated my log in information to better organize log in credentials that I currently have deployed. I edited just the basic email and password as well as adding another one of my alternate email addresses. When I did that the ability to manage the site I have published through muse disappeared through the website interface. I also am receiving an "Unknown Error" when attempting to publish from the Muse application itself. Log in credentials are definitely updated and correct, just not sure where the others went.
Any help in the right direction is appreciated!

Sense Code 0X00023A02 error when attempting to burn RW

Hello. I am recieving this error when attempting to burn from to a DVD-RW or a DVD+RW. I know the first thing that is going to be mentioned is additional software such as on the "things to avoid" list when burning DVD's, however, I have all versions of Encore that have been produced, so I simply uninstalled 2.0 which was giving me the error code, and installed 1.5 and was able to burn a project with the same exact disc. I uninstalled no other software and did nothing else, besides rebooted, which I always do when I install and uninstall my applications. Therefore my thinking is that it is within Encore. It also with another RW in 2.0 states that it cannot erase the disc even if I do not have auto erase selected, and the disc was previously erased with Nero. I am actually sort of angry because I purchased a new burner to test out this error that I was recieving, and while I can indeed return the burner, I noticed others are being advised to check other software they have on their system. I have none of the software listed on the detrimental applications that may interfere with the burning process and I also now have (2) less than a year old burners along with a "not soo inexpensive" application that in essence does not work in a way I need it to. Yes, I can uninstall 2.0 and simply use 1.5, but I should not have to do this. And though I know this is not going to be answered by Adobe techs, please take note that the burn "Does complete without error simply by uninstalling 2.0 and installing 1.5 and creating the same exact project with the same source files". Therefore there is something within 2.0 causing these errors.
Damon

Neil and Jeff, thanks for the response. I am running a 965P chipset board and my PATA is connected via the JMicron controller, so my drive do not appear this way. It only shows the General, AutoPlay, Hardware and Sharing tabs. This is something that is an issue with this chipset from what I am being told. However, if this were the case(and god no man, no roxio installed on the system), shouldn't it be interfering with 1.5 burning the project also? This is why I am soo set it being 2.0 since 1.5 burned the project with no issue whatsoever. It's only in 2.0 that it is stating this error with the +RW or with the -RW it is stating that the disc cannot be erased. I understand completely what you all are saying, but I honestly do not believe this is the issue since one version of Encore will work and the other will not, unless something has changed in Encore 2.0. I understand that it was pretty much re-written(I was on the beta myself), but at that point, I never needed to use RW's, so I did not test with them, otherwise I would have reported it.
I cannot even get into the drive for recording via the Device Manager, so changing this option is not a possiblity. It is unfortunate that from what I have seen only one mfg makes a SATA dvd burner, and from what I have read, it isn't that great of one.
I am just at this point lost and wondering if I should simply return the burner I purchased and buy an external USB 2.0 unit and see if it works with that. What do you all think?

I updated itunes to 10.4, my ipod touch was wiped clean then errored (2003) when attempting to restore. Now my ipod is clear, when I turn it on I get the "Connect to itunes screen", this never goes. I have tried disabling my antivirus, to allow me to restore with no luck.
When I go into itunes I get the message - itunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes,
how am I supposed to do this ?
I would rather take the ipod to someone to do the restoration - I still have itunes with all of my downloads on my computer, I dont want to risk losing this as I can re-install onto my ipod when it is sorted.

If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

Do you have access to another computer you can use to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
