G5 Crashes on Install - Log says Unable to Locate Handle 30

I am getting repeated "Unable to locate handle" messages during install. Sometimes it will stall for a while, but eventually it crashes.
I was able to install Leopard on my original internal drive, but NOT on my Western Digital 500GB drive (which I use as my boot drive in Tiger - wherever Tiger is now that the installer has had it's way with it!

In case your User home directory is mapped to any network location try changing it temporarily to default location on your local machine and then run the installer.
If it still fails try creating a new user account and then run the installer from new user account.

  • All my purchased songs from Itunes says unable to locate original file

    all of my songs purchased from itunes say unable to locate original file

    Did you recently move any files around on your computer. iTunes looks for the files in the original location; if they are moved this can create problems. One possibility is to right click on one of the songs with an exclamation point, and the go to "Get info." This will open a pop-up window that has several tabs.Click on "Summary." At the bottom of this screen, there is a section that says "Where:" This is the path of the original file. Check that location and see if the file is located there (probably not, or you wouldn't get the warning).
    Next, I would search Windows for the particular song. Assuming that you find it somewhere, I would bet that is where the rest of the missing files now reside.

  • IPod says unable to locate music video question

    Big time newbie here to the whole iPod thing. I bought the touch for my wife for Christmas and I'm trying to load it up with some stuff before I give it to her. I bought a music video on iTunes and when I sync and try to load it I get a message that says "unable to locate video". I look in the iTunes folder and I can see it there. I restarted the iPod and the computer and still got the same message. I can watch the video on my computer via the iTunes player. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    If you backed it to iTunes you should be good with all the pictures, videos, etc. and they are still here. However there isn't really any way to retrieve them without the use of 3rd party software. Sorry for your loss

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • HT201272 all of music downloads in my library show a exclamation point prior to the check box, when i try to click the song, it says unable to locate even though all the preferences are saying it's there. where is my music? please help

    I was trying to sync my ipod and for whatever reason my iTunes wasn't recognizing my ipod anymore and asked if I wanted to erase it and basically start over.  So I said yes, thinking it would then put my music library back on my ipod, but instead now it shows all my music but it won't play or sync.  When I try to play any song, it says it can't be located and asks if I would like to locate it, but I still can't find it!  I've had to go into the iTunes store and redownload songs and that works.  But I would really like to just locate my library wherever it is in my computer.  Help!

    I'm in the same boat...so far no one has helped here

  • [2012 R2] Cannot install Reporting Point - Unable to locate SSRS

    Hi all,
    For some reason I cannot install a new site server with the reporting point role. I receive an error that to valid SSRS instances can be found on the site server.
    A little bit (not all servers) more about my environment
    CAS Environment:
    - Server 1 - SQL
    - Server 2 - CAS
    - Server 3 - Reporting Point (installed correctly)
    Primary Site:
    - Server 4 - Primary Site + SQL 2012 SP1
    - Server 5 - Reporting Point (SQL 2012 SP1 only SSRS role)
    I Installed SSRS in native mode with the Reporting databases created on Server 4.
    Web Service and Report Manager URL created (recreated a couple of times)
    http://server5/reports and /ReportServer CAN be accessed from the Primary Site server.
    I am not trying to add the reporting point to the Server4...only to server5 where SSRS is installed.
    No related event errors found.
    Hope someone can help me out with this one.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi
    Could it be, that the user which has opened the console to install the reporting service rule is not a Administrator on the SQL server?
    For the wizard you need to be an administrator. Then, the installation will running under the site server system context.

  • Music on new PC is missing in iTunes - saying unable to locate

    After downloading iTunes to new PC, (the old one is now broken).  In my new PC, in Itunes, some music in hte library has an ! next to it and when you try to play it a message says "some music can not be located".
    Most of this music was originally purchased from iTunes. I have looked in the apple support but can not see a solution. THis music which is missing is on my old iPod, is there a way to upload it from there back into my PC, in order that the new devices (on which the music wont download) can be updated?
    Please reply in a non-tecnical way, as some of the solutions are a bit over my head.
    Thanks

    my recently purchased songs wont play in itunes, album grafics keep disappearing, pop up says original file could not be found. Also my ipod freezes up when I try to play these songs on it.

    Hello musiccc
    That means that iTunes cannot find the file to play. The article below will assist with finding the files on your computer. If they are not on your computer, then delete them in iTunes so you can download those purchases again.

  • Can't log in to Lion Server. Open Directory Log Message says: unable to connect to password server

    I am setting up Lion Server. I can't log in to Lion Server from client.
    Checking the Open Directory Log: says: "unable to connect to password server" or
    "3394.14268, Node: /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1, Module: AppleODClient - unable to read Password Server response - connection to Password Server was closed, socket fd 18 (5205)"
    Thanks for help with this.

    I never discovered the problem, and instead rebuilt the server from the ground up.  I followed instructions at this discussion thread.  Very helpful.
    How To Install A (Almost) Working Lion Server With Profile Management/SSL/OD/Mail/iCal/Address Book/VNC/Web/etc.
    I have had some log-in problems with users.  I have found that restarting the server helps. If this doesn't work, I rebuild permissions on the server, followed by opening up Workgroup Manager, go to the user's password, click on options and require that the user change password on the next log-in. For some reason, this will usually fix the problem.  I then log in as the user, and "change" the password to the original one. Also note, that if you import a user, the password is not brought in.  You must enter it for each user that you imported.  Even so, I have often had to resort to the re-set password procedure to enable a log-in.

  • Error Log entry Unable to write file with XML Saver

    Hi all,
    I have just encountered the following problem. I am saving a XML file using the XML Saver. Another BLT reads the file, changes something, and saves it again with the same name.
    The file is saved, but the NetWeaver SAP Log gives the error
    "Unable to write file /usr/sap/<SID>/JC00/j2ee/cluster/server0/apps/sap.com/xappsxmiiear/servlet_jsp/XMII/root/CM/<folder>/file.xml"
    Is it a problem with the new storage mechanism in MII 12? Even if I delete the file first and then save it again with the same name, the error is displayed (though the file is saved).
    Michael

    Hi Mike,
    no, the Debug only says "Begin Action XML Saver" and "End Action XML Saver".
    The action however writes the file, the contents has changed after the BLT has run.
    Well, I have just tried the Text Saver with the same file (name and contents). It also gives the error. I now wanted to delete the folder. The folder disappered from the workbench view, and the Netweaver log says "Unable to process service message".
    I then clicked "publish" on the parent folder and tried to create the folder again, but although the folder was not displayed, the workbench said "the folder already exists". When I start my BLT, it could write the file into the folder which then reappeared in the workbench.
    Hm, maybe our installation has some problems? Feels like missing authorizations...

  • Unable to locate labview run time engine (lab view 8.5)

    Unable to locate labview run time engine, the application require a labview run time engine 8.5 or compatible...
    What I'm missing??
    Thanks

  • AE Error message: Unable to locate plugin "Boris Red 3.0 FCP Filter"

    I have edited a project in FCS HD and went back to make some changes and now when I open the project I get an error message that says "Unable to locate plugin "Boris Red 3.0 FCP Filter."
    I used the Boris Red application to make some effects and had no problem with this before. I have located the filter in the users library/Application support files but I can't get Final Cut Pro to accept it. I went to the Boris Red website and found no help there, nor have they responded to my requests for assistance so I thought I would look here.
    Another user posted this same problem at another website and the responses he got were not useful either. Can anyone help?

    I re-installed the program and nothing changed. How do I retro FCP?
    The older version I used does not work on Intel Mac Pros and the graphics card it requires is also obsolete. (Actually, it died and couldn't be replaced which forced me to drop my G5 and get a new MAc Pro which started this whole nightmare in the first place!)
    So am I screwed? There really is no way to fix this and save all that work now? I have the After Effects program so would it be better to just forget about Boris altogether and redo the entire project in After Effects?
    If so, I can't believe what a waste of time and money Boris is. All because FCP cannot locate ONE filter? When the filter is sitting right where it is supposed to be?
