How do we reverse the problem caused by the 10/21/08AirPort Extreme Update

I installed the update yesterday on my iMactel and I can no longer turn on AP from the menu bar. My printer is plugged into an APExpress so I can't print. Thank goodness my iMactel is connected to the modem via ethernet.

The problem is that the 'AirPortExtremeUpdate2008003.dmg' updated the AirPort card firmware to 'Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.38.9)' (might be different depending on which card you have) - as far as I know, this is irreversible and even a 10.5.x clean install will not fix.
1. Repair Permissions - /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app. Start Disk Utility, select your HD and click on Repair Permissions. When finished, quit Disk Utility and then restart your computer.
2. Copy the following System Preferences Files to your Desktop (HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration):
- com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
- com.apple.network.identification.plist
- NetworkInterfaces.plist
- preferences.plist
3. Delete the above preference files from HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration - you will require your administrator password. Shut down the computer.
4. Safe Mode Startup - hold down the Shift-key at startup until you see the login screen. When logged-in, then go to System Preferences/Network/AirPort
- click on the 'Network Name:' roll-button, select 'Join Other Network...', enter 'Network Name and select the security type you are using, and finally, enter your Password and click 'Join'.
5. Click 'Apply', then exit System Preferences and shutdown.
6. Startup normally and check your AirPort preferences.
Your System Preferences will be rebuilt - if everything works OK then delete the preference files you copied to your Desktop.

This isn't done via the developer tools, but more likely by an extension or security software.

I just updated to 10.8 Mountain Lion. Now I must enter my admin password each time I attempt to access my main hard drive. How do I reverse the need for the password. It's a real PAIN!

I just updated to 10.8 Mountain Lion from 10.7.5. Now I must enter my admin password each time I attempt to access my main hard drive. How do I reverse the need for the password? It's a real PAIN!

I'd think you have a Keychain problem (Keychain storing passwords and the likes).
When you are being asked, are you offered the checkbox, "Remember this password in my Keychain"? If so, check and see if it stops asking.

How do I reverse the update to Safari 4.1?

I have a PowerMac G5 running under Mac OS 10.4.11.
I allowed Software Update to download and install the version 4.1 of Safari Sunday night. Monday night I found that links on a website in 1 of my tabs that open to a new window do NOT return to that tab when closed, instead they return to the rightmost tab. I also found that links in a website in a different tab that open in that tab are NOT marked as read when the original webpage is returned to. Neither of these bugs were happening before the update and both of them make it difficult to navigate the internet. How do I reverse the update until Apple fixes these bugs? (That update didn't corrupt my preferences, did it? They never have before but there is always a 1st time for everything.)
I did try deleting Safari from the Applications Folder and installing Safari version 4.0.5; however, version 4.0.5 wouldn't install since it claimed that a newer version was already installed, even though there was no Safari installed on my computer at the time. (I wasn't about to delete my Preferences and bookmarks. I have no desire to set up Safari from scratch! If necessary I can get my latest offsite backup, which might have a backup of my Preferences Folder, but I don't think I backed up that folder on that 1, but the previous 1 does have it, though that is several months old.)
Any help would be appreciated, though Apple's not posting buggy software would have been the best solution. (Though they don't do as bad as Bill Gates company does!)

Thanks for offering to help, kisuke3. Unfortunately, neither safe mode nor a new user account solves the problem.
I just received this information from the Chemical Abstracts Service that provides the web-based SciFinder chemical structure and literature search software. I'm not using OS X Lion, so I'm not sure if the comment about Safari 5.1 being "unable to run Java-based applications" applies under OS 10.6, but it might explain my problem? I plan to check the links below, and they might help others having difficulty under OS Lion.
"On July 20, 2011, Apple Inc. released new versions of their desktop
operating system, Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7), and their Internet
browser, Safari (version 5.1). Currently, Safari 5.1 is unable to run
Java-based applications like the SciFinder structure drawing editor.
This problem is not restricted to SciFinder.
Customers who have upgraded to Safari 5.1 and wish to draw and search
structures or reactions in SciFinder should either use Firefox or a
previous Safari version until this browser problem is addressed by
Apple.
Mac OS X Lion is the first Apple OS upgrade to ship without a built-in
Java runtime extension (JRE). SciFinder users who have upgraded to Mac
OS X Lion can download the latest Java JRE from the Apple website at
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421. Users can validate their Java
installation by checking this website:

How do I reverse the order of file lists in finder?

When I display a finder page with icons the sort is ascending (A-Z), but when I use the list function it is decending (Z-A). How do I reverse the list order?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're users here and don't speak for "Apple, Inc."
In Finder icon view, click the Arrange button and select which column you'd like to sort by.
In Finder list view, click the top header of any column to sort by that column. Clicking the same header again reverses the sort order (and the small 'arrow' at the end of the column name reverses direction too).
And using Finder, View, Customize Toolbar the Finder window toolbar can be customized to display icons only, text only or both, as well as adding additional icons to the default toolbar:

Using Acrobat 9.5.5, I scanned a catalog in several segments, to merge later. How do I reverse the order of pages of the back side (odd) pages, and can I renumber each set as even numbers only and odd numbers only?

I scanned a catalog for my archive - double sided pages of course.
It was easy enough to scan the front pages first (odd numbers, 1-3-5) , in several sets of 30 pages, therefore several separate pdfs.
Then I scanned the back side (even numbers 2-4-6) pages but in their natural reverse order, rather than manually reordering all 300 pages.
Now I need to reorder the even pages which are naturally in reverse page number order (300-298-296...)
and I need to renumber all of the pages as only odd or even numbers - set 1: pages 1-3-5-7... Set 2: 2-4-6-8...
Then I can merge everything into one pdf.
How can I reverse the page order?
How can I renumber pages as only even or only odd numbers?
Anyone have these solutions? I don't use much of acrobats features, but it seems to be a pretty basic demand to be included. I can't find any clue in the software menus or online help.

You can do such ordering with JavaScript. There is a recent post with a JavaScript for dealing with another aspect of page order that might provide what you want. You will have to search the forum for the post that was about 2 or 3 weeks ago as I recall.

How can I reverse the order of podcasts so I can listen in cronological order

How can I reverse the order of podcasts so I can listen in cronological order!

What I did was create a playlist for the podcasts and keep it sorted in reverse date order, which puts the oldest first. To prevent it from automatically playing the next podcast, I actually mark all podcasts as "skip when shuffling", and then play in shuffle mode. I also make sure all my podcasts have a genre of "podcast"; I discovered that if you use media type, the playlist doesn't update correctly on the iPod classic
So, what I've got is a playlist of the form: (play count = 0) and (genre = podcast), sorted in reverse date order.

How do you reverse the direction of a build in title?

I use Final Cut Pro X, and for a build in title, how would you reverse the direction? For example, One of the build in titles is called "Knock Out", and the words come into the frame away from you, but how do you make the words go the other way, and go towards you?
If you don't understand what I mean, that effect is called "knock out", and you can look at it in your application.
I know how to reverse clips, but that does not work with transitions/title effects
Thank you!

This particular title does not offer many options for customization; in particular, no option for working the other around, as you want.
I can think of a few options for this. The easiest is would be to make the title by itself into a compound clip; but I have just tried it and it does not work, because the blend mode of the text (stencil alpha) does not propagate down inside a compound clip. (If it did, you'd just have to reverse the compound).
Another option is to open a copy in Motion and make changes there. If you have Motion, this will allow you to adjust as you wish.
Yet another easy way may be to "construct" this title yourself right in FCP X.
Insert the "Custom" title, adjust the text font, change the blend mode to Stencil Alpha, and keyframe the scale.

How we can Reverse the closed Production Order (REVERSAL)

Dear All
How we can Reverse the Closed Production Order Which one is confirmed before 5 or 6 month ..Actually i want to reverse the production order with old pricing.Not with present pricing.
Rgds
Pankaj Agarwal

You can reverse a production order using fucntions --> Restricit Processing --> Revoke Closing.
But if you want to reverse the materials consumed with the older pricing it is not posible as per my knowledge, as the periods would be closed and you can only reverse in the present period and also that all the settlements would have affected on the order and material.
