Help with trying to install OS X ? on 2007 MBP 15.4

I have a MBP Late 2007, 4gb memory, 500gb HD and I can't get any other OS to install except Snow Leopard.
I have tried many times and followed many recommendations from this discussion board but everything has failed.
What would stop/freeze the instillation. I have no more options. Could it be the logic board stopping the instillation?
Any new advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

SMART errors indicate that the hard drive is going to fail soon, so don't install anything, get an external drive and make a Time Machine backup > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427 Then, take the iMac to an Apple Store to get the hard drive replaced.
All hard drives stopped working with the use, so you shouldn't be worried about this if you have got a backup

Help with CF9 Standard Install and Mac OS Server (Snow Leopard Server)

Hello,
I recently purchased a mac mini server (with snow leopard server) and will be using it to host my CF9 applications. This install is WAY different than the install needed on a windows machine. I tried to install it once and somehow hosed up Apache and now I can't even get it to start up (apache). So I am having the colo company to do a full restore of the server and I took notes on the Mac Server install and below is the questions I have.
1.) Since Snow Leopard Server comes with Apache webserver, it is what CF wants to use. This is fine, I just need to know where these things are...
It is asking for the Configuration Directory: I'm guessing it is /private/etc/apache2 ? Right or Wrong???
2.) It is asking for Directory and file name of server binary: It currently defaults to /usr/sbin/httpd is this right or should I point it to another directory?
3.) It is asking for Directory and file name of server script: It currently defaults to /usr/sbin/apachectl is this right or should I point it to another directory?
It also wants the location where I can place the CFIDE. Can I place this anywhere I wish or is there a preferred location to point this to?
and finally, I have CF9 Standard, so on the mac server should I install it as a server configuration (self contained instance) or Enterprise Multiserver config. I was reading online that its better to install as an Enterprise Multiserver setup, but I don't know if this will work for me since I'm useing the standard edition.
Please Help ANYONE, if you have mac os experience and installing CF9 onto a mac server
Thanks

I have been getting this exact same problem. CF installer is somehow writing some invalid information into the httpd.conf file. I was able to replace the httpd.conf file with the default one, and was able to go through the webconnector process again and (sometimes randomly) it works. I also spent about 4 hours on the line with adobe CF support and made no progress beyond what I'll post here .
To answer your questions about file locations:
/private/etc/apache2/ for the httpd.conf files
/usr/sbin/ for both the apachectl and the httpd binaries
Although I'm able to get past where you are, and it seems to work correctly, Immediately upon adding a new site via server admin it all breaks. Coldfusion then will only work if I manually go to a cfm document. For example: http://example.com/ will give me the raw text from the (default index) index.cfm file. But typing http://example.com/index.cfm works.
I am lost here as well. After 4 hours on the phone with adobe support I would have hoped it would be an easy fix. I've completely nuked and reinstalled the server from scratch with the exact same results both times.
Does anyone have the slightest clue about what may be going on here?

Need help with arch linux install!

Hello, let me start off by telling you about the predicament I'm in at the moment. I've been trying to install arch linux on with a cd-drive that has been failing for a little over a year now, so you can already see where my problem starts! The cd-drive, however will work with such cd's as Windows, Ubuntu, and Slackware, which I'm happy with. Yet, archlinux doesn't work so much.
And now maybe my solution. I've got a usb cd drive, that I've had laying around that works well, just not well enough for my bios to be able to boot from; which is horrible I know. I've searched the bios for loading a usb cd drive and everything else, including google so I don't think I'm going to get anywhere with that one. Anyways what I'm thinking of doing is that when archlinux is in the terminal right before you type the "/arch/setup" command, I would like to know if there is any command that allows you to change the cd it boots the cd from to go right into the installation. I'm still working on easying my out of the newbie stage of linux at the moment, but I've never run into a command like that, that would help me out. Hopefully there is one though, because I would very much like to archlinux to work, so please respond! Right now I'm running elinks through the terminal right before you type "/arch/setup". Thanks!

So you get through the boot process just fine then on your old CD drive. The only thing you should have to do after that is to throw your CD into the USB CD drive and proceed with the installation. The installer should then ask you what CD drive you would like to use when you choose install from CD.
Another way to do it would be to switch cd like above and then manually mount your /dev/[your_usb_cd_here] on /src. The installer then has to be pointed to this place as the source of your installation. To find out what your usb cd drive is called you should unplug it, then replug it and run: dmesg
The mount command might also need to be shown that this is a cd so:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/[usb_cd_device_name] /src
should do the trick.
If you really want to learn more of what the installer does (and fail installing a few times) you should also check out the command
/arch/quickinstall
If your Internet connection is up for it, it seems like you could just choose an FTP install instead.
Goodluck!
Once the CD is removed from the drive that it was booted from. the installation will not continue, as the arch install always goes back to the boot drive to continue read the neccessary information for the install. I do not think there is a way to fool the computer into booting from one cd drive and then continueing on with another. To do this you would have to tell the computer that you are switching drives.
If you can boot up the CD kernel and get to where you type in /arch/setup then the next thing I would od is FTP install. That would limit your CD rom drie usage.
There is also a way to install arch from within another distro, EVEN ANOTHER LIVECD! <-- this may be your best bet. Check the wiki, there is tons of information there.

Please help with RED HAT INSTALL

I am trying to install jdk (or whatever have they changed it's name to) 1.3.1 on Red Had Linux, but i run into this problem:
The file I get is called:
j2sdk-1_3_1-linux-i386-rpm.bin
and it is supposed to be a rpm file that when ran with rpm installs the application.
But if i try to run rpm -ivh j2sdk-1_3_1-linux-i386-rpm.bin it says that this file doesn't look to be an RPM file. I am trying to install as root so there is no security issue.
Any help is welcome,
Calin

j2sdk-1_3_1-linux-i386-rpm.bin
I had the same problem with Debian. What I wound up
doing was renaming the file. Try
mv j2sdk-1_3_1-linux-i386-rpm.bin j2sdk-1_3_1-linux--386-rpm
It should work after that.

Some help with the 10g install, please.

Hi,
We want to install 10g, we are currently running 9i. We want to do this in silent mode since we have so many databases to move to 10g. We've got a few questions & concerns about the procedures that are supposed to be done.
If someone could kindly read over some of our concerns, we'd appreciate it.
First, we used the -record method to create a response file. How much do we have to manually edit that file once Oracle creates it for us? Or is it ready to go after we exit the OUI.
When we tried to do the install, it said it successfully installed 10g, but it failed on some of the configuration assistants. Do we need to run all of the configuration assistants? I mean, TNS is already configured. Does it change for the 10g install?
Additionally, once the 10g software is complete, the environment is still set to 9i. How does that get changed for the silent install to continue with the DBUA? I mean, we do have databases that need upgrading.
Any help with steps would be very helpful to us. We're getting error messages like this:
The installation of Oracle Database 10g was successful, but some
optional configuration assistants failed, were cancelled or skipped.
Please check
'/ora2/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/silentInstall2006-10-26_01-26-39PM.log'
for more details.

HELP WITH TRYING TO DO A FIXED ASSETS REPORT IN DISCOVERER

Hi...
I'll try and explain this simply as I can.
I am trying to do a Disco report to basically list the asset numbers with the cost, the opening depreciation, the YTD depreciation, Accumulated depreciation and the remaining life of the asset.
I can get most of the data from the FABG_DEPRECIATIONS table.
The report will be run for a specific period say for example 05-2008. The problem I have is that for some of the assets there won't have been any depreciation for the year 2008 but I still need those assets to appear on the report showing the cost, opening depreciation etc.
But because the report is being run for a specific period say 05-2008 in this example these assets that have no depreciation for the period are not being displayed on the report.
As there isn't a field (I couldn't find one in any of the tables)that has the opening depreciation I have used a calculation for this which is Accumulated Depreciation - YTD depreciation. This is where my problem is. For those assets that have had no depreciation in the current year being reported on it should use the accumulated depreciation for say 12-2007 as the opening depreciation for the year 2008.
So in the example of reporting for period 05-2008, it show the opening depreciation which would be the accumulated depreciation for 12-2007 and 0 (zero) for YTD depreciation.
That is why I have attempted without success to use a union statement. The sql is below.
I would be very grateful for some help with this please.

Help! Tried to install Lion, now Mac won't start.

Hey all,
So here's the scoop on what's happened. Downloaded Lion fine, but foolishly tried to install it without backing up my data first. When my computer restarts, it brings up the Lion installer. I click through to the screen where you choose what disk to install Mac OS X but my hard drive is not there. The only two choices are my Boot Camp partition and "Mac OS X Install ESD," which I assume is the partition Lion created to boot off of.
So I go back to Disk Utility - it tells me that my Mac drive is not mounted. I cannot mount it manually by right-clicking. I also try repairing disk, which takes some time after finding numerous errors and tells me the drive "cannot be repaired after 3 tries."
I can still boot to my Windows partition, from which I am typing this now, but I can no longer boot to Snow Leopard (holding alt at the home screen only gives me the installer and Windows as bootable options.
Hopefully others are having similar experience or have some idea that would not involve me wiping my hard drive. I just got the computer two weeks ago so having to restart would not be the end of the world, but obviously is not optimal.
Thanks in advance for all your help, and let me know if any other information would be helpful to diagnose the problem.

Help with Video Card Install on Solaris 8

I have a video card with nvidia4 chipset. After installing solaris 8 on my system I get a screen that is too big to fit on the monitor, so I have to scroll down to see everything. Plus it displays 16 colors. I tried to install the FreeBSD drivers that are availble on the nvidia site but could not run "make" command. Anyone know how to solve this?

There are two options:
1. Install the latest Solaris 8 x86 video driver patch109401-14
available at:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/xprod-Solaris_x86IntelDrivers&nav=pub-patches
This may add native support for your nvidia chipset. If it doesn't,
then you have the option to try the new VESA driver which is
included with this patch as well - the VESA driver is supposed to work
on all cards that have the necessary VESA support bios routines.
2. Install the "Solaris XFree86 Video Drivers and Porting Kit"
http://soldc.sun.com/developer/support/driver/tools/video/video-index.html
It adds support for many video cards by using XFree 4.2.0 video
driver modules. It also includes another variant of the VESA driver.

I Need help with where to install .pto files.

I have several preset files in the .pto format and I'm trying to install them into PS 5.1 and can't figure out where to deposit them so the program recognizes them and makes them available for use. Any help greatly appreciated!

That file extension .pto doesn't sound familar as far as anything photoshop uses.
What are they supposed to be used for in photoshop?

Can anyone help with how to install Java on Win Server 2012 RDS

I am trying to install Java on my RD Host Server and have tried several times to install both the 32 and 64 bit clients. Both complete but when I try to verify, I think the 32-bit version launches, but never fully resolves the applet. I get
a grey box, but nothing more. I have tried several method of installs but nothing seems to work.

technically it should be under install mode but it doesn't really seem to matter in most cases
the most important part is that you allow the java controls to run in IE when prompted, if that's not done then it won't be allowed for your remote desktop users
you can also validate this by going to the manage add-ons section in IE, select all add-ons and look for items under Oracle, make sure they're enabled for all sites in the more info section
once you're confident it's working for you as an admin, then we can tackle any user issues which are usually caused by IE hardening and JRE7's strict security settings which you may also want to look into
personally I've had issues with activex filtering feature and enhanced protected mode options - disable them both

Help with dreamweaver CS3 install

I am trying to install CS3 on my laptop that does have 512mb
of ram, although it has intigrated graphics so it only reports
~480mb to windows. So i get the ram error while trying to install
the software. Is there any way to force the install??

dot45 wrote:
> if this is in the wrong forum, then please move it.
If you take a look at other posts, you'll find a lot of
queries about
installation problems with CS3, so you're not in the wrong
place, but
the lack of replies to your question suggests that nobody has
the answer.
The CS3 installer is very fussy (to put it mildly). It won't
install on
systems that don't match the minimum requirements. Even
though you have
512MB RAM, the system shows only 480, so you fall below the
threshold.
Unless you can find a way to get the machine to report the
full amount
of RAM, your only course of action seems to be to install
more RAM.

HELP with Wireless Headphone install - no headphone jack on TV

i just bought the Sony-Wireless FM Over-the-Ear Headphones-MDRRF985RK and trying to install it on our Vizio 40" and there is no headphone jack. If we use the AUdio out all we get is static. We have tried different channels but we can't get a clear connection.
Any suggestions?????

You'll need an adapter. What model is your Vizio? That will allow us to check which inputs and outputs are available and give the best response.
If I had to guess, you have an optical output on the TV, and would need an optical to 3.5mm converter/adapter. Best guess is that it will run you about $25-30.

Have firefox368 on ubuntu(linux) recent upgrade and now flashplayer10 will not be recognised as installed -by youtube and other sites , help? tried many instal/uninstal combos with no joy.

have tried taking off firefox 3 and reverting to 2 (was fine) until clicked to instal adobe flashplayer10 when prompted by site and firefox3 had returned - flashplayer showing as installed but when returned to sites ikea, youtube they asked to instal latest flashplayer.

Ok I tested a bunch of different Firefoxes on my pos linux box.

I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 I plan to use as a replacement for the Sony Vaio when it pops. I've held out as long as possible because it lacks a pci or usb wifi and I really didn't want to run 50 feet of cat5 up a flight of stairs to it. [as i type this i think i remember where a linksys stick for it might be]. Yes I guess it's about time I just do that.
Don't laugh but the reason I held off adding a simple usb keyboard was just lack of space in my tiny bedroom. My setup is on two tray tables side-by-side. Sony Vaio is on left one, my lcd monitor and mouse are on the other. I barely have room to put a cup of coffee on the one with monitor and mouse let alone a full size usb keyboard lol.
Anyway thank you again for all your help.
