Error When Trying to use Steam... Please Help!!

I have been trying to use Steam on my computer but for some reason it comes up with an error that reads, +*"SteamStartEngine(0xbfffdd58)failed with error 1:CMultiFieldBlob(pSerialized): Badfield-Extends past Blob"*+
Does anyone know what this means...
Please help... Ive tried reinstalling it already, and it just comes up with the same thing. Cant get ahold of Steam for help...
Thanks!

Possibly[/y] because you may not have followed
the
procedure outlined in my first reply.
Your details state OS 10.4.
10.4.??
Oh, so you think it may be a permission issue.
Thank you. Ill try that when I get home.
I appreciate your help.
I tried your suggestion with repairing permissions from the install disc but to no avail. It didnt work.
Would you happen to have any other ideas?
Thank you.

  • ODI error when trying ro reverse engineer-- Please help

    Hi all,
    I am receiving the error below "ImportError: no module named java" when I am attempting reverse engineer from Essbase into the models tab in the ODI Designer.
    I am using ODI version 10.1.3.5
    I have all jar files related to Essbase in drivers folder. And all KMs related to Essbase in impexp folder. I have created CLASSPATH system variable with "D:\OraHome_ODI\oracledi\drivers". Should i need to add this path in PATH system variable?
    What should i do to get this problem solved. Please help.
    Thank you in advance for the help!!

    MOS Note 424232.1 says
    Such messages are probably due to either a stale Jython cache (.../scripting/cachedir folder) and / or insufficient access privileges attributed to the Unix user account which has launched either the ODI Agent or Designer GUI and is executing a Jython script and writing to the Jython cache (default value being .../lib/scripting/cachedir/packages folder).
    Alternative workarounds:
    1. Stop all ODI processes and remove the cachedir folder, the restart ODI and retest the process.
    2. Use a different "python.cachedir" information, on which the User has write privileges. This Java property may be set into the Jython Registry and specifies the directory used internally by Jython for cached information about Java packages in ".jar" files. If the directory is relative, it is interpreted relative to the Jython root. For complete information, refer to Jython documentation, at:
    http://www.jython.org/Project/userguide.html#the-jython-registry
    3. Try running Jython once as "root" in order to create the Jython cache directories or take appropriate administrative actions (for example, chmod 777....) to allow the user account to access these files.
    4. Please bear in mind that Unix is case sensitive... As such, do not forget to verify lower/upper case attributes of folder names.
    If the ODI process is run by an Agent and the message is displayed:
    1. Please check the ODI Agent in Topology Manager to determine on which host it is running then proceed to its installation folder and ...:
    2. Verify that Jython is included with the Agent installation folders:
    * In oracledi\bin - jython.sh
    * In oracledi\lib\scripting - jython.jar, cachedir, and lib
    * In oracle\lib\scripting\lib - numerous jython .py files
    3. Also give Unix user account full permissions to every file and folder in the Agent installation and the java installation.
    4. Restart the Agent.
    5. Test the Agent in Topology Manager (ensure that the hostname is correct). If the test is successful, retest the Package/Scenario.

  • Syncing error when trying to add songs, please help.

    My ipod nano has suddenly stopped letting me add music to it from itunes and just says that it is unable to sync. Is there a way to fix this without resetting and deleting all of my music? And it is not due to a lack of space since I still have 1.32G left.

    Hi
    This is exactly what has happened to both our iPod nano's recently, one older model and one new one. Very annoying, I have restored them both and synced them again but get the same error 13019 message.
    Both iPods are pretty new and out iMac is only 4 months old.
    This has basically rendered them useless, surely they are not meant to be that disposable?
    Have looked at the above suggestion which to a feeble minded person like me seems a complicated way of possibly fixing something which to my mind is a fault?

  • "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable sele

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable selection screen (in WAD).
    How could this be resolved?
    Quick reply would be very helpfull.
    Thanks in advance !!

    It seems you are using wrong client ID. Make sure your logon pad has right details. You should verify this with your basis team.
    If the problem persists then try re-installing. But before you do that you can execute sapbexc.xla which is in the c:\program files\sap\bw. Type c:\ in cell c3 and click "start button". Any red flag means you have wrong version dll/ocx on your local drive, in that case you should reinstall with right patches.
    if this solution helps u then pls assign points

  • Error when trying to launch iTunes! Help!

    Hi!
    I've tried to seek through the forums to find someone with the same error, but i haven't found anyone.
    Here's the problem:
    When i try to launch iTunes I get a Windows Error saying that iTunes har encountered a problem and has to quit. It's that kind of error where you can send an error-report. And when I try to restart Windows, I get the same error when I log on. Please help! I've tried to reintall and repair iTunes, but it won't help.
    iPod Mini   Windows XP Pro   Sygate Personal Firewall Pro, F-Secure Antivirus 06

    hi
    I had this same problem for ages and tried all sorts
    of things. I think the problem was Quicktime
    actually, but what eventually worked was:-
    Uninstall itunes, then reboot. Close the Quicktime
    program tray icon (lower right corner of taskbar) and
    uninstall Quicktime. Then install the standalone of
    Quicktime before installing itunes again.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks!
    I'll try it out! Havent't thought of that.
    Will come back to say if it worked.

  • List of values failure error when trying to use dynamic data values

    Hi there,
    I have a user who is experiencing problems when trying to use dynamic values in a report.  Whenever he tries to insert dynamic parameters he gets the following error message:
    Prompting failed with the following message: 'List of Values failure: Failed to get values.  [Cause of error: Access is denied.]  Error Source: prompt.dll  Error Code: 0x8004380D
    He even opened the sample report - prompting.rpt - that is included with CR and gets the same error.
    We are using Crystal Reports XI Release 2 ver. 11.5.11.1470.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Please excuse my ignorance of the product.  I've had this problem dropped in my lap and I know practically nothing about Crystal Reports.  In doing some digging it appears to me as if the BusinessObjects Enterprise software may not be installed properly, if at all.  In the programs menu under the BusinessObjects XI Release 2 folder I see a BusinessObjects Enterprise folder, but the only icon listed in that folder is Software Inventory Tool.
    Is the BusinessObjects Enterprise software a separate install from Crystal Reports or is it bundled together?  I talked with the tech that did the install and he said that all he had was the Crystal Reports install media.

  • Program error when trying to use the clone stamp tool - PSE 8

    When trying to use the CLONE STAMP TOOL, getting the following:  "Could not use the clone stamp tool because of a program error".
    Runnng PSE 8 on Windows XP/SP3.  I purchased the key to have a full version, versus the 'trial version'.  I also have Photo Essentials 3 installed and have used it without any problems.
    Any suggestions?

    I figured it out - it was ID 10 T error...ugh.
    Was following along in a book and blindly did what it said....was forgetting to hit the 'alt' key when first defining the area to clone....
    However, it was kind of a confusing error message - something like "clone area not defined" would be more of a help.
    thanks.

  • Why do I get an error when trying to use a link in the forum?

    I just tried to use the link that Varad offered in Redirect certain users with login procedure and I got an error:
    The specified thread [0] was not found.
    I got the same thing when trying to use a similar link a couple of days ago. They sound like something I might benefit from, but I can' get to them.
    The link URL looks like Re: logon username determines page that opens, how can I accomplish this?
    Any ideas?

    That's what I thought, but apparently it worked for Stefan. If you go to Stefan's post (first link above) do you also see the same link as I have attempted to copy? In Stefan's post, do you see the question mark in a diamond?

  • Pop-up errors when trying to use FaceBook on Sarafi 4 on Windows

    Hi there.
    When trying to use Safari on Windows, I get an annoying pop-up whenever I try to use chat on FaceBook and it says something about MIME type not recognised and pluggin errors. I have installed the latest flash but it keeps happening - is there another plug-in I need to reinstall?

    Here is a link to the info on how to access the 4200 set up pages and how to do Port Forwarding with it
    http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Siemens/4200/iChat.htm
    Use the Access info and then see if you have it doing UPnP to open the ports.
    If it is then the Port Forwarding does not need setting.
    Next, if you did originally set it to do Port Forwarding this should have pointed to an IP (The one your computer has/had)
    Check the Port Forward that is set is pointing to the IP the computer has now by Looking in System Preferences > Network
    QUite a way done the log your end suddenly switches the port it sends the SIP part of the invite on
    INVITE sip:user@rip:61042 SIP/2.0
    Via: SIP/2.0/UDP sip:60442;branch=z9hG4bK672a7283709f480e

    This is not an iChat port and it messes up where iChat then says to send the Video and Audio data.
    The log from the other end implies the ports are not even open.
