Going Nuts here

hello one and all,
i have a mac mini early 2006, not an intel mac. im running mac os x 10.3.7 and would like to upgrade to 10.4 and have the installation dvd. ok here is the problem.
i have read elsewhere that i first need to upgrade classic 9 to classic 9.2 which i have tried. i downloaded the software, however once it says select a destination and my HD is in the correct field i cannot actually hit select as it remains greyed out. why?????????
i also read that i need to upgrade my firmware befor upgrading to os x 10.4. i saw a link with updates for firmware for all relevant macs and clicked on it only to find that all macs were catered for except minis.
basically i really want to upgrade to os x 10.4 but cant do it. i know that many of you have prob gone through this process a 1000 times but i would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. i just cant figure out why i cant upgrade classic.
thanks for any help.

I don't believe it is required to update OS 9 to 9.2.2 in order to install Tiger, only recommended. If you are running the Classic environment under 10.3.7 with the OS 9 version you are running, this shouldn't cause any problems with Tiger.
You certainly don't need a firmware update in order to install Tiger on a Mini that is only a year old or so especially if your Mac model is not listed on the required firmware update list.

I must have done something and have pushed ever button I could thing of to correct this. It use to be I could place the eraser on something and KNOW exactly where it would begin erasing. Sigh. Can anyone help this Forum Noob. Thanks

Triggering events for the Lost Triggers!!! Going Nuts....

Gurus,
Oracle ver 11g
I am going nuts and crazy here....
Can you think of any possible reasons that I have lost all my objects that I created for triggers ( approx 65 objects) and how to get back those objects.
I don't have the script to re-create all those objects again as I did it manually using the Toad and I am 1005 sure I saw all the objects created and was able to see them in sql*developer tool.
We had a server crash and we had to reboot the server where this oracle is residing, but other than that I am have no reason how the objects disappeared...
My belief is create trigger is a DDL command Right? so the objects should be there in the DB.but I am not able to see them any possible reasons>?? please advice when time permits
Thanks
Sheik

Thanks ennisb for your reply.
Do you have an export handy that you could restore from?
** No, I am not sure how I could do this. and whether we are doing it. Basically are you asking whether we are backing up the DB daily ( No I guess we are not backing up).
Is Flashback logging turned on?
** Guess Yes, the Flash back is turned on.
When was this server crash?
** I am sure I saw the objects on 8th Apr and were created on 7th and 8th and the Server crash was Y'day ( 09th).

Ah, Ok. I didn't know what was triggering the message. That is launching indeed. (I have to ask because many people a week don't know what it means).
This message is the big problem, because it isn't even getting as far as the license agreement.
I found a little discussion of this. It seems rare, especially on a Mac, but here is one person's advice. Worth a try:
The error that you are facing might be due the reason that the user logged in doesn't have permissions to access the following directory: "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe". Can you please try the following steps with the user account in which you are facing the error:
1. Remove the Adobe Reader from Applications directory by moving it to Trash.
2. Now delete the following directory: "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe". Please note that this path is for the Library folder present inside the user directory that you are currently logged in.
3. Restart the machine.
4. Now re-install Adobe Reader XI.
Tip: In Finder use GO TO FOLDER from the menu and type in "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe" (without the quotes but with the ~)

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

HT1766 Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

You can share the same Apple ID in
Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
But for all other Apple services like:
FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be seperated. What is going on here?

I noticed the same problem after upgrading a few iPhones to IOS 8, all use the same Apple ID. However, I now notice when I go into Message and instead of selecting a person from my contact list, I start typing their name which brings up a list of people, some of which are not in my contact list and are on one of the other iPhones. There's a circle/exclamation point next to the name which I click on, and one of the options is to "Remove from Recent". How did these names get from one phone to another and how do I remove all "recents"? They do not appear in my contact list. Anyone see this?

In attempt to burn blu-ray, I get QuickTime error 0. Takes hours to export a 7 minute movie from timeline, then get notice it fails. What's going on here?

New problem just started 24 hours ago. When I try to export from the time line to create a QuickTime file, a 7 minute movie on time line takes 3 hours to export and then the export fails, where as a few days ago, that export would take about 10 minutes at most. I get the same failure notice when I try to share to blu-ray, DVD, or Vimeo. Tried to use compressor, no such luck as compressor failed to make a .mov file. I get QuickTime error 0 message about 5 minutes into trying to share to Blu-Ray now. Does anyone know what is going on here? I'm running latest update of Snow Leopard on an intel Mac Pro and the latest update to Final Cut Pro X. I've also installed QT 7.6.6 to use in creating time lapse movie files.

Same problem here, too. Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 on OS 10.6.8. However, it is only doing it on ONE of my projects. A 4-second test project burned successfully.
I'm actually going to use iDVD to burn copies for a few people, so I only need the movie file from FCPX.
Would someone please post best export settings for use on a DVD? In FCPX, the project is in HD (1080p) with all media optimized to ProRes 442. I know it will have to be down-sampled to DVD resolution, but I've always been curious to know what settings will result produce the best possible quality in DVD resolution.
Thank you!

The trackpad of my 13" macbook pro (mid 2012) has geen going nuts for about a week now. It randomly clicks and drags the cursor to all places on screen, it randomly clicks, selects and swipes. Have tried spm reset and pressure on whole trackpad. Help?!

It goes nuts for hours and the next day it acts completely fine. My macbook is impossible to work with when the problem is active; it randomly clicks, drags, selects and even selects words (in a yellow colour) to come up with latin(?!) translations.
Ive tried the reset (option+cmd+r+p) and it seemed to work at first but now it doesnt seem to have any effect whatsoever.
Also tried to apply pressure to the entire surface of the trackpad or just the top corners; no effect whatsoever.
It's been quite an expensive purchase for a young student like me and i've really enioyed it until last week.
I'd be relieved if someone came up with a solution; especially since its warranty has expired for half a year now.

I am contemplating replacing my old Ipod with a 8gb touch which supposedly holds up to 1760 songs. In my ITunes library the average size of a 12 song album is 300mb which means I can get 27 albums x 12 songs is 324 songs. Where am I going wrong here?

There is about 6.9 GBs of free space on an 8 GB Touch for data storage. That translates to roughly 23 of your average albums.
Holds up to 1760 songs is based on the size of an average track which is about 3 to 4 MBs, whereas your albums have tracks averaging more like 25 MBs per track. I sort of doubt your average album holds what would be about 5 hours.

As long as iMessage is enabled and the old phone is connected to a WiFi access point, it will continue to receive iMessage texts. It won't receive non-iMessage texts nor will it receive any calls.

I'm going through **** here, using a spanish key board, to lay down fonts, using FCP X, each and every time the "accent" mark is need over a letter, FCP X shuts down...this is the most feckless system I've worked with in years!!

I'm going through **** here. Have a client who needs a spanish version of their corporate presentation. Got the Spanish keyboard up. Each and every time I need to use an accent above a letter...FCP X shuts down. What is going on with this system? The most feckless piece of soffware ever!! Ready to pull out the old tower G4 and cut on the FCP 7...

Okay will do...using the Canadian English Version...
Also, as you well know in Spanish, the "accent" does "slice" either way. Over vowels, such as "a" and "o"...
If you have any more advice...I'll gratefully take it...and a much appreciated "thank you"
