FR seems to be gone after system crash

Hi!
I didn't find anything using the search function and I think my problem is a little bit peculiar.
A while ago, I had a serious problem with my macbook pro. I wanted to reinstall the printer drivers but during installation it somehow deleted my OS X. Well, it was still there, but my MBP didn't recognize it anymore. So I reinstalled and told the setup routine to save the old data and install OS X completely. After that, I moved the old data like preferences and stuff like that back and overwrote the freshly installed files.
But now, front row doesn't start. I can hit my remote as much as I want. Nothing happens. Even iTunes doesn't load up. But the remote works with iTunes. So I guess I have to reinstall Front Row or iTunes+Front Row. Can anybody tell my how I go about it?
Or do I have to reinstall my whole system? I don't really like the idea, because I'm using boot camp and I have fear that I won't be able to access my windows installation when I completely reinstall the "old" mac os that I have on my CD. And I'm not looking forward to reinstalling all my software.
I hope someone can help me.

Front Row is not included when you re-install Mac OS X, it's an "additional" install. You will need to install Front Row itself, but the good news is that you don't need to re-install Mac OS X.
Insert your Mac OS X install disk (no need to startup from this disk). Double-click on the "Install Bundled Software Only" option on that disk. (It may be called something else in German!) This install will walk you through several steps. At the "installation type" window you can click the "customize" button. Then you can check "on" or "off" all the additional bundled software like iPhoto, iDVD or iMovie but there is also an option to check "on" Front Row. If you don't need any of the other software re-installed, just check those items off and make sure Front Row is checked on. Continue the installer and when it's done, you should be able to use Front Row again.

Please help: fail to recover after system crash

Hi all,
I tried to start our directory server after system crash due to hardware failure. Error log shows:
[17/Apr/2010:01:35:15 +0800] - WARNING<20488> - Backend Database - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - Detected Disorderly Shutdown last time Directory Server was running, recovering database.
However, the recover process seems never ends (I waited overnight...). While CPU usage of ns-slapd grows continuously, the server has no response (e.g. ldapsearch waits forever). I make copies of db before starting ns-slapd and thus I tried several attempts:
1. start as it is.
2. remove db/log* and start
3. remove db/log* and db/__db* and start
4. remove db/* except db/NetscapeRoot and start
All attempts have the same result - recovery goes on continuously.
Then I tried to remove db/* and run restoreconfig with an old configuration backup. Then ns-slapd can be started. However, when I do ldapsearch testing:
ldapsearch -h localhost -v -D"cn=directory manager" -b "" -s base objectclass= namingContexts
ldap_init( localhost, 389 )
Bind Password:
ldap_simple_bind_s: Invalid credentials
I'm sure the password is correct, and also tried modifying nsslapd-rootpw in config/dse.ldif and corresponding userPassword in configuration file created by saveconfig before restoreconfig.
Again, all attempts have the same result - invalid credentials. I can see BIND cn=directory manager attempts in logs/access, but also see following line in logs/errors:
[17/Apr/2010:21:59:08 +0800] - INFORMATION - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - get_entry: entry cn=directory manager not found (error 32)
I'd like to know:
* if there any other method to make recovery process complete successfully?
* if there is anything missed/wrong in the restoreconfig process?
I tried several days but can't make it. Would anyone please help?
Sorry that we're still using old versions 5.2 patch 5 on Solaris 5.9 on v440 machines...
Thank you very much.

I hope you have a export of LDAP data backup in LDIF format, if so, please stop the instance and remove all the files from your db directory which includes .db3 and log.* and __db* and then do a ldif2db.
Once import is complete, start the slapd process.

Workflow continue after system crash.

Dear Workflow expert,
I have customized the standard leave request workflow to a 2 level approval workflow. However, sometimes the workflow will suddenly stop without any error and I need to go to tcode SWPC (execute workflow after system crash) to continue the workflow.
Anyone can tell me in what circumstances that the workflow will fall into this category, because it like happens quite frequently.
Thanks

Hmm, searching to difficult?

File restore after system crash?

I recorded several videos on my iPhone yesterday. One was 28 minutes long (almost 3 GB) so I deleted them from my phone as soon as I copied it into iPhoto. I was viewing the videos in iPhoto when my system crashed. After rebooting, the movies were gone.
Is there any way these movies can be recovered? They've got to be on the hard drive somewhere.

Try using a data recovery product such as the ones listed here. Don't write anything else to the drive until the files are recovered or you choose not to recover them.

Problems Accessing Photos After System Crash

Hi,
Last night my system inexplicably crashed after working fine all day. I called Applecare, and they told me to clear everything and start from scratch. I had just used backup the night before so everything came over fine. I'm just having problems with my photos.
How I noticed my system crashed was that my iPhoto library disappeared, and when I went to open the files manually, they would not open either, saying they were corrupt. I went to DiskUtility and it wouldn't fix it either, so that's how I had to reboot everything from my backup drive.
So I open iPhoto and the pictures seem to be there, but they are "squished." When I click on them to open, the edit screen is blank. My albums also did not survive the reinstall (even though my playlists from iTunes did). I went to open some photos directly from my "iPhoto Library" folder, and they open fine in Preview. So I thought I would trash all the fake pics currently in iPhoto and import the good ones over. When I try to do that, it says the photos are unreadable or corrupt, but they work fine in Preview! (which they did not last night before I reinstalled post-crash).
Please help me save my 4000 photos!

It may not be a 'glitch' in the actual update so much as it could be that the update did not go through correctly.
Restoring the device as suggested is the best way to isolate exactly where the issue lies.
You can start with a first step of attempting a Hard Reset (Home Button + Sleep/Wake Button for 5-10s), however if this does not rectify the issue the next step is to attempt a Restore or alternatively force an update again of the device.

? How to recover APPS from iTunes after system crash

I think we need a sticky for this.
Is there a tutorial or instructions to recover ALL your iPhone/iPod Touch apps from your PC or iTunes after a system crash and iTunes is no longer accessible even after uninstall and reinstallation? I heard one can call Apple Support and have them do a one time reset but for people like me who have more than one iTunes account that may be a problem since it would require several accounts.

Ok....i have some good news, I believe. Using King_Penguin's link and Apple's KB seems to have worked. I tried this under another windows profile on the same machine. The TRICK is to hold down CTRL W when opening up iTunes. This will prompt you to tell iTunes where the library is. The key is to copy everything from your My MUSIC\ITUNES folder. More info here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
What is throwing me off is there is another option to, "Create LIBRARY". Not sure how that works. But the instructions are here: When you need to restore your backed up iTunes Library from your external hard drive to your computer, follow these steps:
1.Quit iTunes.
2.Locate your external hard drive.
Mac: On the Desktop or Finder sidebar.
Windows: In My Computer
3.Drag the iTunes folder (backed up earlier) from your external hard drive to whatever location you desire on your internal hard drive. It is recommended that you choose the default location for the iTunes folder, which is:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
Windows Vista or Windows 7: \Users\username\My Music\

How to Recover a running composites after system crash?

The Weblogic server has unexpected restart while some long-time composites were running.
After Weblogic started again, those composites had state "Running". But nothing changes. They never neither finish neither fault.
Is there a something necessary to configure in weblogic, or composites to successfully continue all running composites after system start-up after a crash?

Hi there,

Event recovery after system crash?

My system crashed yesterday when I was viewing some recently imported videos in iPhoto. When I rebooted, the videos were gone. I found them in my iPhoto Library (in the folders with yesterday's date) but they're not showing up as an event in iPhoto itself.
Any idea how to re-import them?

You have a corrupted library - do NOT import anything into it - you will compound the corruption - you need to fix it - Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

Lost all Subclips from project after system crash

Hi,
I'm new to the forum and tried to find an answer but I'm not seeing it so I apologize if this is covered somewhere else.
I've been using Premiere Pro (CS4) for a couple of years. I've made extensive use of SUBCLIPS for projects and I found they helped organize the building a complex sequence in several documentaries and they have worked well for me - until my system crashed. While the project opens and I find all media, I find that all SUBCLIPS are gone. Have I lost them forever? Can they be recovered?
I have built a new system and installed my old data hard drives, but I have a newly loaded C-drive. I am running Windows 7 on both the new and the dead system. I can still extract data from the old C-drive if needed.
I am wondering just how Subclips are stored. They do not appear to be files – where do they live? Can they be transferred?
I would really like to avoid the number of hours it will take to rebuild those subclips.
Thanks!

In the password file I set the password of the os
user oracle which owns installation.The Password for the password file is supposed to be the SYS password and not OS User oracle which owns installation.
I do not think the Oracle OS user password change is the problem. When you alter SYS password using the alter user command, it should change the password file automatically.
Try
SVRMGR> connect sys/sys_password as see whether it works. If it does not, then check other issues.

AirPort partially broken after system crash

Hi, before my system crash which caused me to force reboot it. My Internet Sharing from my Ethernet-to-computer-using-AirPort worked fine.
Now. the Internet Sharing doesn't work because:
No "Arrow Up" icon on top my AirPort icon on menu bar, I tried to uncheck then check "Internet Sharing" in Sharing preference pane but it still doesn't show up.
"AirPort" network not showing up under the menu of Stat menu. Normally there's when AirPort was turned on.
However the AirPort menu could detect secured wireless network from my neighbor.
Here is the screenshot of my Network, I don't know what does yellow light next to AirPort indicated or if it's normal? I repaired permission and it doesn't help.

Obviously it's a bug.
Previously I was using Chinese as the system language.
After I switch back to English, the Internet Sharing can't understand the Chinese text（亿太网:Ethernet) that were remain selected in the Internet Sharing preference. I have to reselect it to make things work.

ITunes reverting to old library after system crash

I just started my itunes after my computer crashed, and it has reverted back to an old library from 2010.
I've tried holding shift and opening itunes to select what library file (.itl) it uses, and even when I select the most recent one, which is dated yesterday, it still only loads the music that I added sometime in 2010.
All of the music and apps I have added since then (which is a lot!) are still in my itunes Media > Music folder, yet they are not showing up when I open itunes. This goes for both music/apps I have purchased from itunes, and music I have added.
Can anyone help me?! I don't want to have go through and add two years of music and apps again!

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
