G4/450 running 10.4.7 doesn't run iChat

Oddly enough, a lot of the Apple applications (iCal, GarageBand, iChat, iDVD and so on) have the generic "A" (Application) icons. In pre-X days we'd rebuild the desktop to clean up those icons.
At any rate, the iSight camera turns on (lights up and gets very warm), but iChat doesn't start. Double-clicking the app does as much good as tapping the Space bar - nothing happens. I've tried to reinstall the app, but the installer runs for about six seconds and pops a warning that installation was not complete, please try again. Space bar again...
The G4 is a 450MHz machine that's admittedly old and tired. Is it too slow to keep up with the new software? According to the tech specs, it should run on a "600MHz G3, ANY G4..." and so on. This isn't just "any" G4 - it's the one I want to video conference on!
For the record, I installed a second camera on my G5 and everything fired up as advertised.
Any positive clues?
Thanks!

Hi macahuna,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
If you have lots of generic Doc type icons showing in the DOVK it means that the icon there has lost contact with the original app. (or there is something wrong with the orib=ginal App).
Does iChat show in the Applications folder ?
Will it launch from there ?
You may have to do some work to get back to normal behaviour.
First of all Repair Permissions.
This is part of Disk Utlity in Applications/Utilities
When it is open then click on the Hard drive and Repair Permissions
Next use this FAQ http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=122021 to get one of the Utilities that can run the Cron scripts.
Yes the G4/450 can do this.
What it can not do is multichat.

  • An app that runs on iOS 5 doesn't run on iOS 6

    I tried to watch a football game on my Slingplayer app through my Apple TV. I started out by installing the new iOS 6 system on my iPad 2. The picture would connect for a blip, too short to call a second. After a dozen tries, I remembered I hadn't upgraded my other iPad 2. I then proceeded to connect through that iPad without any problems. I am seeing a lot of posts about not connecting to WiFi, but I do not know if that is the issue I am experiencing. Is this likely an issue with apple or Slingplayer?  Has anybody else just had selected connectivity problems with certain apps? So far, thankfully, I have only discovered Slingplayer  as having an issue. Is there anyway to get back to the prior operating system

    Yep that's a good idea. I gave my feedback to Apple to tell them, that It is very bad that the lyrics are not shown anymore in the iOS  5 Music App.
    CALL TO EVERYONE WHO THINKS THE SAME WAY: Submit your Feedback to Apple and tell them to fix this! The more people will do it, the better it is.  Hopefully that will help.
    Submit it here:

  • Crystal Report doesn't run on the production PC

    I developed a report using VS 2005/Crystal Report. The report has three on-demand sub reports and some subreports. It runs well on my PC, but doesn't run on the production PC, on that PC, I only can see the report header or few columns. The difference (I can tell) between my PC and the production PC is my PC has VS 2005 installed.
    Is there anything I can do to make the report running on the production PC?
    Thanks.

    Hi Jhon,
    Have you installed the runtimes of CR of VS2005 on your server, if not than please install from(only applicable if you are using the bundle version of CR i.e. CR 10.2 which comes with VS 2005) [here|http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/runtime.asp#07].
    Note- use the appropriate version of merge modules for 64 or 32 bit machine
    hope this works

    TM does not work like that.
    If you want files to use later.. do not use TM.
    Or do not use TM to the same location. Plug a USB drive into the computer and use that as the target for the permanent backup.
    Read some details of how TM works so you understand what it will do.

  • Have downloaded firefox update 3 times and it doesn't run

    I have just started to use firefox on my pc which has windows 7. I keep getting a message saying I need to update the version of firefox, so I down load it and it says it is downloaded ( I now have it 3 times) but it doesn't run and still keepstellin me I need to upgrade it??? DO I just go back to internet explorer???

    Your browser reported to the forum that you are running version 3.6.6. Can you verify that using the Help > About Firefox dialog?
    Which file did you download: Firefox 3.6.27 or Firefox 10.0.2?
    (If you need to re-download, you can choose from the files on these pages:<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all for 10.0.2 or <br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older for 3.6.27)
    Make sure to close Firefox before launching the installer for the newer version. Do you get any error messages when you start it? It might take a minute for the installer to check itself before you get a dialog.

  • I have an ipod touch 8gb model number MA623LL. How do I install apps on my ipod? Is it capable of transferring/running apps? Why doesn't my ipod touch have the basic-beginning app on the beginning screen after i erased/wiped my ipod and started new?

    Googling shows that you have the 1G iPod.  For apps you need at least iOS 2. The iG can go as far os 3.1.3 that you get here:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    Just be aware that there are presently not that many apps that work with a 1G with iOS 3.1.3

  • French characters in run time parameter values doesn't show up in emails

    We have a custom workflow with configurations to send email when a request is assigned to a person and also to send email on request rejections.
    We are encountering following issues with respect to French characters that are available in the message body and message subject.
    Issue 1:Notifications are configured in Human Task (ApprovalTask.task) when a task is assigned. Since the message body contains French characters we have used ISO-8859-1 encodings to render the message properly to the user. The message body also has some run time content from the task payload.
    For e.g. &#192; titre de responsable fonctionnel, une demande d''approbation pour un acc&#232;s informatique vous est assign&#233;e.
    Acc&#232;s informatique demand&#233; : <%/task:task/task:payload/ns1:ObjectDetails/ns1:name%>
    In this case all static text values are rendered properly to the end user in his email. However the French characters in run time parameter values doesn't show up properly and has some weird characters.
    Issue 2: Unable to change the default subject shown in the approval task emails i.e. Notifications are configured in Human Task (ApprovalTask.task) when a task is assigned. By default it shows Action Required: Approval. How can this default value be changed?
    Issue 3: We have an Email Activity in Bpel process that follows a task rejection. The emailpayload is ISO-8859-1 encoded and works for the message body. However the email subject shows up with ISO-8859-1 encodings itself and doesn't convert to proper string in the end user's email. Is there any specific setting required for french characters in subject?

    Hi Kulwinder,
    Thanks for your reply.
    In fact I do, I've follewed the "Using SAP HANA Variables with SAP BusinessObjects BI4.0" guide.
    Please note, when I use a fix value to parameter is working fine, for example:
    SELECT *
    FROM "_SYS_BIC"."prueba-concepto/CV_TEST_VAR_II" ('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$FECHA$$','20130530'))
    But when I set prompt of the DataFoundation parameter I get and error, this is my sentence:
    SELECT *
    FROM "_SYS_BIC"."prueba-concepto/CV_TEST_VAR_II" ('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$FECHA$$',@Prompt(FECHA)))
    To me is very curious that I can't enter a value in the DataPreview in Hana Studio, because is not requested, even when the input parameter have been set as mandatory
    Have you idea of what could be happening?

  • Applet embedded in JSP doesn't run on browser with older than JRE-1.6

    I have embeded an Applet in my JSP Page which used JDK1.6's getHardwareAddress() method to get user's physical address.
    I have embeeded this into a JAR file and used it in my JSP where this applet run on onload() event of the form --> runs the applet --> and gets physical address of user machine and prints it in one of the text boxes on the form.
    Now, the issue is that the applet doesn't run on browser that doesn't support JRE 1.6
    My concern is that how can I run this (if at all possible) in browsers that support lower versions of JRE or is it possible to check that if the browser doesn't support JRE 1.6 then load the basic version of form without running the applet. Can i actually check the version of browser JRE somehow and stop to execute the applet. Because what happens as of now is that if the applet doesn't execute, the complete form fails to load.
    The last option is that I give a message on my web page that redirects user to Sun Java site and asks them to update their browsers.

    Personally, I have no knowledge about Applet but have you checked this link?

  • Running Sync BPEL process doesn't show any HTML form /XML source for input

    Hi
    I designed,compiled and deployed SYNC BPEL process on to server
    but when I opened console and try to run the process, it doesn't show any form for input
    Actually it has to take input
    Where I am doing wrong...?
    Thanks for any help...

    Hi Praveen,
    That is correct, you're not doing anything wrong. The BPEL Console doesn't show any forms for testing the services if the service is synchronous.
    I test my synchronous webservices with Eviware SoapUI. This is a freeware tool. Check: http://www.soapui.org/
    Just create a new project in soapUI, create a new request from WSDL, copy and paste the WSDL in soapUI. It will generate a default request for you, which you can edit and execute.

    One has to initialise a session first for use with Oracle Apps if you want to make it run as a concurrent job.
    Any decleration within your package will not be recognised unless initialisation is sucessful.
    Investigate the built-in packages:
    FND_GLOBAL - for initialisation
    FND_SUBMIT - for setting session relevant parameters
    -- function returns true or false depending on whether the initialisation was sucessful or not
    create or replace function is_Init_OK (p_User_Name       in varchar2

  • Nsswitch doesn't run PADL's nss_ldap.so

    Hi, all!
    I've really broken my brain.
    I've successfully compiled PADL's nss_ldap-253 with openldap-2.3.21 and openssl-0.9.7i. All linked static.
    /etc/nsswitch.conf reads "passwd: files ldap". nss_ldap.so copied to /usr/lib/nss_ldap.so.1.
    When I run `getent passwd` it displays content of /etc/passwd only and exits with code 0. truss shows that it opens /usr/lib/nss_ldap.so.1. But it doesn't run any functions, even nssldap_passwd_constr().
    I've downloaded ready-to-use nss_ldap.so.1 from www.symas.com and it works fine. It frustrates and encourages me. I cannot understand what is wrong with my job?
    I have Sun Fire V240, Solaris 9 9/05, GCC 3.4.2.
    openssl-0.9.7i:
    # ./config no-hw threads
    # make ; make install
    openldap-2.3.21:
    # ./configure disable-ipv6 disable-slapd disable-slurpd disable-shared --without-cyrus-sasl \
    --with-tls CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib
    # make depend ; make ; make install
    nss_ldap-253:
    # CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib LIBS="-lssl -lcrypto" \
    ./configure with-ldap-dir=/usr/local with-ldap-lib=openldap --enable-rfc2307bis \
    with-ldap-conf-file=/etc/ldap.conf with-ldap-secret-file=/etc/ldap.secret
    # LDADD=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib make
    # cp nss_ldap.so /usr/lib/nss_ldap.so.1
    # ln -s /etc/ldap.conf /usr/local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf

    GCC 3.4.2 was the matter. GCC 3.3.2 works fine.

  • Executable doesn't run in other computer

    Hello all,
    I have built a executable for one of our labview application and it works properly in this PC, the problem is the executable doesn't run in other computers, I've read the documentation sorting it out.
    I checked:
    -The OS is the same in both PC.
    -I attached the file sepdrv in executable's folder (I am using serial communication).
    -Labview Run Time Engine is instaled.
    The executable doesn't take the default icon in other computers, does it...

    Hi!
       It shouldn't be a licensing problem, and you don't have to have LabView installed on the PC in which your application will run, installer is meant for this! Otherwise, if you had LabView on target PC, it would have been enough to run the VI on the other PC (provided you've the same libraries....).
       I use NI Developer Suite 7.1, so in LabVIew 7.1, you have
         tools --> Build application or shared library ...
       Go to "installer settings", check "create installer", and in "advanced properties" check for what you need for your application to run.
       I only have an "evaluation version" of LV 8.5, so I cannot grant you that I can help you, but I'm doing a little check...  please, let me know what LabView do you have!
