Fixing X11/aquaterm errors in gnuplot, OS 10.4

Hello,
This is posted, with various differences, for various OS's, around the web. Depending on your configuration, you may have trouble getting gnuplot to run on your Mac. I did. This fixed it.
All this for 10.4, gnuplot 4, x11 1.1.3.
1. If you don't have x11 (look in usr/lib/X11), install it from the 1st install disk. Spotlight for X11 on the DVD, and select X11User.pkg and run it.
2. Use Update in your System preferences to bring X11 up to date.
3. If you get an error that libaquaterm.1.0.0.dylib is not found when you run gnuplot, and you do have /usr/local/lib/libaquaterm.1.0.1.dylib, then just
<QUOTE>
$cd /usr/local/lib
$sudo ln -s libaquaterm.1.0.1.dylib libaquaterm.1.0.0.dylib
<UNQUOTE>
So gnuplot will find the newer library version.
4. Run gnuplot (or octave) from an X11 terminal, not a "Terminal" terminal!
Hope this helps.

  • How can I fix a time error on my MacBook?

    How can I fix a time error on my MacBook?

    If, after checking the settings in Sys Pref> Date/Time nothing really changes
    you could see if a reset of the NVRAM could help.
    Read carefully & when using the keyboard sequence, let the computer
    start tone sound three times, to be sure the reset has really occurred.
    •About NVRAM & PRAM:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Does the time gain by itself? Is the Time Server set to automatically
    keep the computer time corrected when you are online? You may
    also try the manual settings, if the computer had not been used in
    some time, because if the battery gets too low, the capacitor in a
    portable computer can also lose power, & NVRAM - PRAM chip
    settings could be lost. However by then, Date can also be wrong.
    Was there anything else going on that may have affected this?
    Sometimes odd items are related to something else.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Whenever someone tries to embed a PDF file into a Word document, the following error occurs:

    I have looked at alot of articles online that say to 'Disable' Protected Mode.  This does not resolve the issue.  This option is not set by default in our environment.
    Do we have any confirmation or information from Adobe on this issue?

    Hey Debbiered1,
    Follow the steps in this link to resolve the issue:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    When you uninstall, the items you uninstall and the order in which you do so are particularly important:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Take care,
    Delgadoh

  • How do I fix the R6034 error in iTunes?

    How do I fix the R6034 error in iTunes?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    How do I fix the following error? itunes counld not back up the iphone because the back up could not be saved on the computer?

    I updated to iOS 5.0.1 days ago and didn't receive that notification until just now...
    This time I synced new photos I took yesterday, and it gave me the:
    "iTunes Sync: 54 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information"
    Perhaps it kicks off when new items get synced.
    I've decided to rent a movie yesterday. Once it gets deleted, I'm curious to see if it jumps to 55 items.

  • How do I fix a 1439 error on iPod Classic

    iPod Classic not working at all.  Tried resetting with no luck.  Tried to restore - comes up with [The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1439).]  How do I fix a 1439 error?

    I'm having the same problem as you (I think). My iPod Classic 160 gb got corrupted and I can't put songs on it. I tried resetting the iPod, changing connections, and completely reinstalling iTunes, but nothing has worked yet.
    When I plug it into a usb drive on my Laptop (OS: Windows 7) it says "You need to format the disk in drive G: before you can use it. Do you want to format it?" If I click cancel, nothing happens and I can usually go to iTunes. If I click Format disk, a new window appears with many options (Capacity, File system, Allocation unit size, etc.). If I click start (no matter what options I chose), a message appears saying "WARNING: Formatting will erase ALL data on this disk. To format the disk, click OK. To quit, click CANCEL". Sounds scary right? None the less, a message always appears before the formatting can do anything saying "Windows was unable to complete the format."
    When ITunes opens, a message appears saying "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore the iPod before it can be used with iTunes." I can click "ok" and the click the restore button, but after a while the load fails and it says The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1439).
    This is really irritating! I just want to listen to music on the subway and bus! If anyone has any ideas or tips that would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Unfortunately I already tried all kinds of re-installs (the full list is in my original message). The only one remaining is the reinstall of Windows 8 itself, which I would really like to avoid.
    What I find really strange is the time it takes for the above error message to appear. It's like one hour or even more (never measured exactly, I left the computer running).
    What kind of a timeout is that? I would expect that, if ports are really used by some other application, I get the message in less than a minute (seconds, actually). To me this looks like the emulator itself for some reason believes there's a problem with
    some port while in reality there isn't.
    I'll eventually contact Microsoft Support, thanks for the suggestion.
