Filevault setup fails again and again

Just tried to setup filevault and i keep getting "an error occurred during setup so firevault will not be turned on". Any clues?

Hi, and welcome to the forums.
First, is there enough room? There needs to be enough free space on the disk for a second copy of your home folder, temporarily.
If there is, how is your internal HD formatted? It's shown towards the lower left of the sample in #6. I don't know for sure, but have seen claims that File Vault won't work on a Case-sensitive partition.
Try Verifying your internal HD, per #6 in [Formatting, Partitioning, Verifying, and Repairing Disks|http://web.me.com/pondini/AppleTips/DU.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of the +Using Snow Leopard+ forum).

Clean install from DVD failing again and again.

I tried clean installing Lion:
I partitioned my hard disk and burned a DVD with the installer.
When booting from that DVD, it just tells me that setup failed and I should try installing again.
At that point, the only option is to reboot from DVD again, ending up with the same error, or using the tools delivered on the tool except for installing.
I tried installing while being booted on the DVD via Terminal by starting /Install Mac OS X Lion.app. This fails after rebooting again as well.

question , where did you get DVD from ??? i burn it my self via tutorial

I have an Airport Extreme, it's only flashing amber and won't go solid green. I use my ipad 2 to try and setup the Airport and I keep getting "an unexpected error occured, try again."

I have an Airport Extreme, the light is only flashing amber and won't go solid green. I use my ipad 2 to try and setup the Airport and I keep getting "an unexpected error occured, try again." I've tried my iphone 4 with the same result. I've tried the utilty on my pc and same result. The airport is producing a great wireless signal and working to all devices. I really just want to get in and set the password.

I have reset several times with no success.
When you did those resets, did you continue to hold in the reset button until the status light blinked several times? If you didn't, then you didn't do a full reset.
Here's what I do to reset an AirPort base station: I unplug it, press in the reset button, then, while continuing to hold in the reset button, I plug it in. (Yes, doing this can be easier for people with more than two hands!) I then watch the status light and wait until it flashes rapidly several times.
I have a Time Capsule that I couldn't configure at one point. To recover from that I had to unplug it for many hours. You might try unplugging your unit overnight.

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

If you used icloud for your contacts and calendar then you should have no problem. They will all come back on the phone once you put the icloud user name and password in. Itunes does not store the contact information except in a backup file and if you were backing up using icloud you can use that backup to restore with.

BlackBerry 8100 - Loading Software Fail Again and Again

Hi Dear BlackBerry 8100 Users.
      My history is very sad, because some days ago I try to load the software from version 4.5 using the application loader for my specific celular service provider, but The process fail again and again and again... My BlackBerry is dead..
      Well The problem with loader after the process of "LOAD JVM and System Software" after this step the loader goes to step named "Wait for device initialization" in this process the phone lost connection with PC and gain connection many times finally the winner is lost connections with PC and ofcourse the entire process fail with the first message "USB Device Not recognized" and finally with messages "Unable to complete the load operation" and entire process of loading system software stop and nothing.
    ¿Anybody has a possible solution for this problem or advices or procedures to follow?
Note: I configure the USB hub to avoid the process of saving power
Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome to the forums!
It sounds like maybe you computer isn't able to power the device when the process is "Waiting for device initialization". Are you using a laptop computer? Here are a few articles about USB connection issues.
Troubleshooting USB connections
A 507 error message appears on the BlackBerry smartphone while upgrading BlackBerry Device Software (see number 4)
And here is a post on the forums about how to use the Web-Based software loader to load your device software - I have had some success using this when other methods fail.
hope this helps

Operations Manager 2012 Reporting Service installation failed again

Hi dear guys.
i'm an administrator in a company. and our company decided to have monitoring tools for our servers located in two sites.
i started installation of SCOM in Two servers: 1- SQL server 2-Management server, Operations Console, Web Console
all MP's that needed has been installed and configuration completed successfully. then i decided to have Reporting Server too.i did proper tasks and started it with coordination of DBA team. but because of miss configuration in SSRS installing failed. after
repairing SSRS by them installation failed again but reporting Icon appeared in Management console
because of too many communication with DBA team, I installed a SQL server on a separate server(Full Featured) and configured SSRS too. and then started installing SCOM reporting on this server. but it again failed.

Here we go again,....iTunes update for Windows 7 fails again same problem as back in Feb update

Why is it that Apple is failing to get it right lately with their updates?
Tried to install latest iTunes for Windows update on my PC Win 7 and it fails again wioth same error messages as with the previous update in Febr.
Sooo very disappointed!!!!!
To go thru all this again is taking me a few hours again to fix this problem assuming it works again this time, maybe I should just give up on iTunes instead.
Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates
really *****,
NE1 have any suggestions for an easy fix?
thanks

First off the automatic install fails nothing happens.
Then tried the manual install after download, get the message that Apple mobile service failed to start and make sure i have required privileges to do so(Total BS)
the SetupAdmin.exe file does not provide any action.
Then right clicked the iTunes6464.msi file and installed it. Seems to install the update but when iTunes starts get the: "error 7" msg with iTunes helper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. then w're in that **** loop......LOL
I believe this is because I have a 4 yr old laptop with old graphic card.

Hard drive fails again

I have had 2 new hard drives put into my MacBook Pro ( mid 2012 ) since July this year but the third one has just failed again.
I collected my MacBook on Saturday ( 7th September ) and I didn't have it 24 hours before I saw the same problem happening again.
The machine will constantly beachball on me and then freeze up completely, I end up getting the folder with a question mark in it.
I'd tried to reinstall the OS but it cannot find a disk to install it onto.
Does anyone know what's causing this constant problem?
I'm getting really annoyed at having to bring it into compub for them to say they will replace the hard drive only for the same problem to napping again when I get it back.
Could it be something else in the MacBook that's causing this problem?
My mac has been out of it's 1 year warranty since the end of july but the new hard drive has a 90 warranty and under the European law I know that the machine has a 2 year warranty on it excluding certain parts ( hard drive, charger etc. )

Since you're having so many hard drive failures, your problem may be with the SATA cable used to connect the hard drive to the logic board.
If your last repair is still under warranty, I would return the machine to the Apple Store/AASP that completed the repair and ask them to check the SATA cable. While it may be that you're simply having 'bad luck' with drives, I suspect the cable with so many drive failures.
