G4 with 10.2.1 (or maybe 10.3.9) won't start after software upgrade

A little history...bought this PowerBook G4 new from Fry's (no + testimonials will be provided!!!). Since machine was floor model they did a clean install of 10.2.1. Discs they gave me were not the same OS version, however. The computer did work until an out-of-the-blue Kernel crash a year later while on vacation (suddenly wouldn't recognize anything USB). Fry's sent it to Apple. It was returned with 10.3.9 on it and 10.2.7 disk. When I upgraded my scanner software (w/o trashing the previous version of the software which was for system 9.2), the computer worked until I turned it off. I've since purchased $129 Disk Genius, tried every command-S, option key, fsck -fy, reset the PRAM and, who knows what else). When I had the Disk Genius in I was able to go into the disk utility and repair the permissions,etc. Then I guess I did the ultimate no-no...tried to reinstall a lower system than was now on the computer (since the only disk I had was for 10.2). The computer, through all of this starts up (well, not really)...it chimes...and then the little dial (not rainbow one) just goes around and around and around. Any ideas anyone? Thanks so much!
PowerBook G4 15" 1GHZ Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi, 411Shirley - 10.2.7 was a transitional software release from early October, 2003 that only shipped with three Mac models I am aware of: the 1 GHz 15" PowerBook; the 1.33GHz 17" PowerBook and a particular G5 tower. The machines that shipped with this version of OS X cannot boot from any earlier versions of the OS, and this version of OS X was not available to users of other Mac models. These users could only update from 10.2.6 to 10.2.8.
The 15" Aluminum PowerBook looks like this:
There was also a 15" 1GHz Titanium PowerBook (TiBook) which looked like this:
The TiBook was a dual-boot machine. That means that it could be booted into both OS 9 and OS X. It shipped with OS 9.2.1 and OS 10.2 preinstalled.
If the machine you bought came with 10.2.1 preinstalled, then you have a TiBook, and this machine cannot run 10.2.7. You will be able to install a system from the original disc(s), and upgrade to 10.2.8, however.
To reinstall 10.2.1 (or whatever version of OS X is contained on the original discs that came with your computer), you will need to boot from that disc, erase and reformat your hard drive and install 10.2.1. You will not be able to install OS X 10.3 or OS X 10.4 without purchasing them as retail packages.

    Hi All,
    This is not a virus . I used this website & I found it very useful & you can remove it through the following steps.ar.hao123.com 1- Then right-clicking on the icon Mozilla Firefox on the desktop, then choose "Properties", as shown in the picture: 2- Select Tab "shortcut", and then delete the text after. Exe in "target" as shown in the following picture, then press "Ok" 3- Open Firefox, and then choose "options" from the list of "tools" 4- Select the tab "general", and in the list "when Firefox starts" then select "show my homepage" and in the box "homepage" then enter any other link and then press "OK"

  • Firefox 12 won't start after upgrade from 3.6 in Windows XP with SP3

    When I start up firefox after an upgrade to 12 on my Windows XP with SP3 I see the firefox.exe process in Window's Task Manager but it never starts i.e. I never see a browser page. If I try to start it again I get an error message that it is already running.
    I have rebooted and even uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox but no browser appears.
    Is it possible for my to download the version I had (3.6) and I can just live with that or is there a work-around to get Firefox 12 to work on my desktop?
    Thanks

    Well I was able to run the profile creator one time (firefox.exe -p) and I created a profile with it but still not able to start firefox. So I tried to start it again after rebooting. It starts a process which I can see in Task Manager but now I don't get either the Profile Manager dialog box or FF.
    I also tried to start the profile manager with this command: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p.
    I terminated the firefox process and tried again but get the same results.
    BTW, this command: %APPDATA%\MOZILLA\FIREFOX\PROFILES shows a profile called m6woxz30.default, which is not the name I choice for my profile the one time I got the Profile Manager to run.
    BTW, thanks for your help and ideas.

    I have removed the ecp site from default site and attempting to rerun SP1 now. I do not have high hopes. :(

    Hi,
    Thanks for your response.
    From the error description, you need to manually remove the ECP with IIS manager in both the Default Web Site and the Exchange Back End firstly. And then continue the upgrade to check the result.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.
    Best regards,

  • Problems with contacts getting deleted after software upgrade!

    Somehow, my IPhone 4s had a software upgrade, and it DELETED contacts.  Anyone else have a problem with this????  UGH!
    I had a thunderbolt before my IPhone, and my contacts were saved to the verizon back up assistant.  They are now nowhere to be found!

    If you were already using iOS 5 where you using the iCloud feature to back up your device? If so, you should be able to retrieve your contacts. If you just upgraded to iOS 5 where you backing up your device on your computer via iTunes? You were advised to complete a backup prior to proceeding with the software update...if you did so then a copy of your back up should be available in iTunes. Try looking at the following link to see if it helps:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If you did not do a backup and you were not using iCloud to do backups then you would need re-sync your contacts from another source...did you use a contact manager on your computer (such as Outlook)? If you did then you can retrieve your contacts from there. Try looking at this link to see if it helps. If it is not the correct one you can do a search on that site to find the article that better fits your needs.

  • Very frustrated with my LG G2. My screen freezes all the time when texting. This started after the upgrade. My husband's phone is doing the same thing. We have reset the phones, deleted off pics and videos but nothing helps.

    Very disappointed in my LG G2. My screen freezes all the time especially when texting. This started after the update. My husband's phone is doing the same thing. We have done a hard reset, deleted pics and videos to clean up the phone but nothing helps. Any suggestions? Our phones are new.

    Lots of Frustration.  In some cases the LGG2 is rendered useless even as a phone.
    Here is what I did.
    Got replacement Phone.
    Same problems but I shut down all apps that I purchased even though they worked before KitKat.
    Found that If I have both WiFi and LTE Data on at the same time battery chewing stops. Do Not know why.
    Then I got 2 CM free utilities.  The Clean and Wash utilities. Run them and find the culprits grinding CPU
    cycles and running down the battery.  Number One is the Verizon Voice Mail service constantly turning on and off
    and retrieving data not there.  Turn of the extra Voice mail and use the old access with the *6.  Unless you have
    100 messages a day for business your hosed until this KitKat issue is fixed. Get the CM battery utility.
    YOU can see the battery suckers and shut them down when not using automatically.
    Start putting back one application at a time you used often and see it they work and if the utilities will tune them
    down if they cause problems.  The LG will get better but with some limitations.
    LG and Verizon have a problem with what was a great phone.turned bad overnight.

  • Help with Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor - Won't work after Maverick upgrade

    I bought Adobe Elements 11 in March of 2013.  It was working fine until upgrading to Maverick.  It will not open now.  Adobe will not help without a serial number.  Apple does not provide serial numbers when you buy directly from the App Store.  After 3 hours of trying to unintall and reinstall, no luck.  Apple said to call Adobe back, Adobe says to call Apple.  Finally just asked Apple to refund me the $85.00.  They said said they ‘can’t’ since I’ve ‘had it for so long’ (7 months ?? ).  They said the problem was my fault because I didn’t check and make sure Adobe Elements was compatible with Maverick before installing Maverick.  I should mention that it states (on the App Store page) that Adobe Elements 11 is "compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or later”.   Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if any kind of resolution was achieved?   Again, any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Tony

  • My mac book pro (2.66Ghz Intel core i7 4Gb ram) crashes every time I open iPhoto, browse photos or videos from Finder and work with slides, this started after I upgraded to mountain lion, what can I do??

    I updated my OS to mountain lion and since then my mac book pro is virtually useless, seeng pictures, videos, using graphics applications and Iphoto is impossible, the screen goes black, and the system restarts.
    This even happens sometimes at login, the login screen appears then the computer crashes and restarts, sometimes more than once, yesterday it even happened 6 times in a row before I was actually able to enter the password and log in.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' 
    Copy (command-C) the selected text to the Clipboard. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered. You can do that by copy-and-paste as well. Omit the final line ending in “$”. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}' 
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. It won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • 400 (or maybe 500) Mhz Titanium won't start.

    I've adopted an old friend's Ti (of unknown configuration/OS) to see if I can get it to run. (He said he hasn't used it for over a year...but the last time he did use it, it started without a problem.)
    I've read all (most) of the discussions about non-starts.
    Questions:
    1. Can I safely use my 65W 1 GHz Titanium power adapter to start the dead Ti?
    2. Can I safely use my 1 GHz Titanium main battery in the dead Ti?
    3. Does the 400/500 MHz Ti power adapter have a light on the plug that is supposed to go on (like the newer Ti's)?
    At this juncture...I don't know whether the problem is A) the Power Adapter; B) the main battery, and/or; C. the PRAM battery.
    (I'm trying the AC Power adapter for 48 hours with the main battery removed solution.)
    Last, but unrelated, question: Will the 133 MHz DRAM work in the older (100 MHZ DRAM) Ti? I have 500 MBytes of newer Ti memory sitting here unused (I upgraded the 1GHz Ti to 1 GByte of DRAM).
    Thanks.....

    Hi, John. Yes, you can use the 1GHz Tbook's battery and AC adapter safely with the slower Tibook — they'll work fine. And yes, the old AC adapter is supposed to have a ringlight on its plug. If the adapter works and the light comes on when you connect that adapter to a different Powerbook, the DC-In board in the old PB is faulty and needs to be replaced. If the light doesn't come on with another Powerbook either, the adapter may be faulty. Use the 65W adapter to charge the old Tibook's batteries, then test the older adapter with the machine it belongs to. It's possible that the 45W adapter's light won't come on when it's being used with a Powerbook that expects a 65W adapter — I'm not sure about that.
    Assuming that isn't the problem, your internal backup battery is undoubtedly dead after so long. That alone would prevent the Tibook from starting, and recharging it may solve your problem. It won't take 48 hours to do so without any main battery in place; 4-6 hours should do the trick.
    PC133 RAM that worked in the 1GHz Tibook should also work fine in the older one. It will operate at PC100 speed.

    When you say familiar files you mean real files on my windows partition?

  • J2ee Can't start after JDK upgrade on system with Wily Introscope

    Hello All,
    For one of our portal server java patching is done from java 1.4.2.22 to java 1.4.2.25. And on this server Wily Introscope is installed.As per SAP when ever we upgrade java we need to re-create "AutoProbeConnector.jar" and update the JAVA VM parameters in configtool.
    I know the procedure to re-create "AutoProbeConnector.jar" if the Introscope agent is installed manually .
    Below are the steps to be followed to re-create if it is manual type.
    i)Re-create the AutoProbeConnector.jar file
    >wily>connector
    java -jar CreateAutoProbeConnector.jar -jvm /opt/java1.4 -output
    AutoProbeConnector.jar
    Output file AutoProbeConnector.jar created.
    ii)Setting Java vm parameters through configtool.
    Xbootclasspath/p:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/connectors/AutoProbeConnector.jar:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar
    Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=/usr/sap/ccms/wily/IntroscopeAgent.profile
    -Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>
    But my systems Introscope agent is created automatically by SDM agent.if this is the case we need to re-execute the Introscope agent setup again to re-create the AutoProbeConnector.jar file.
    Can you any one tell me the procedure to do this activity, if possible with steps and the paths to be followed.
    Classpath parameter file which says it is installed automatically.

  • Problems with N76 after software upgrade of PC Sui...

    I downloaded and ran the current Nokia Software Updater which has been installed on my PC and in turn installed and updated all related components.
    I then followed the instructions to a tee, backed up files, via content copier, updated my N76 with the latest version of the Device software. Upon the phone restarting, all was good and the phone asked me for my country, state and date and time. When I check Device Manager it advises that I have V31.0.014 and that the Device is Updated with current date. Upon checking the Sync folder Lifeblog and PC Suite are both DEFINE and dated.
    Before having had a chance to restore from my backup, I received some text messages with pics which I uploaded to my PC Lifeblog with no problems.
    I then restored the backup file with great ease, so that I could have my contacts etc back on my phone.
    Only problem is that it seems like not only files are restored but also any previous phone settings. I have gone through the whole process three times and each time I restore when I check the Device Manager it tells me that the phone has previous version on it and that the Device has not been updated. Also when I check the Sync folder it tells me that the PC suite (is not defined)and if I try to change any settings manually it advises that the profiles are READ ONLY.
    HOW CAN I FIX THIS IT IS DRIVING ME NUTS!

    Hey, did you get this fixed?

  • IPod won't start after several days with charged battery

    I have had this problem since I bought it a year ago. If I don't use my iPod for a few days, when I try to start it - nothing happens. When I hook it up to my computer, the Apple logo appears on the iPod screen, then everything appears normal. If I disconnect the iPod after the "initialization" period with the Apple logo, I see that the battery actually has charge, and usually plenty of it. It's as if the iPod puts itself into a sleep mode that can only be awoken by a brief power source connection. Is this common? Is there a way to avoid this period of "sleep"? Thanks.

    read the following to understand the various "sleep" states:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60945
    is the battery fully charging, or is it getting a partial charge?

  • Problems with rv042g after software upgrade

    after software upgrade it reboot the router about every 45 sec
    I've tried this tool from the Cisco website RV0xxV3_FirmwareRescueUtility_v4.0.0.7 without success, the problem is there, is a way you can get the router up and running again ?
    Can i run a TFTP server and upload a new software, or i ther a FirmwareRescueUtility for rv042g ??
    Mogens from Demmark

    Good morning Mogens Pedersen
    Thanks for using our forum
    I am a Cisco network support engineer, I have a recommendation, before you  upgrade any device in the future. Always keep in mind to make a backup of your data, in this way if you have to reset the device to factory settings you will not lose that information. Having said that, reset the router to the fabric configuration using the back little button, remember when you do that, you are going to loose your current configuration.
    Also here I leave a link for you to download the firmware rescue utility for your router:
