How to compile and install glib and gtk+?

Hi,
I am trying to "configure", a "make", and "sudo make install" on the package glib-2.26.0.
I type ./configure which works fine but then when I type 'make' it gets to a certain point and then gives the following error message:
*#error GNU libiconv not in use but included iconv.h is from libiconv*
What does this mean? I've already installed iconv under /usr/bin so what exactly is going on here?
Thanks in advance,
Mark
PS: I originally had Leopard on my machine, and now I have Snow Leopard; does that mean that I have to rebuild every package from scratch?? Could this be causing the problem?

Actually this is not necessarily the wrong place to ask such a question (or was it moved to the unix forum? My head hurts). In my experience, gtk+2 and the associated software is not completely trivial to compile on OS X and to get working properly. I make fairly heavy daily use of it. I let fink do this for me.
One immediate suggestion: Try not to put this stuff in /usr/bin. If you can put it in /usr/local, or using fink, put it in /sw, or macports (a fink alternative some prefer), in /opt/local, it has the advantage of (a) not clobbering anything distributed with OS X, and (b) won't get clobbered by OS X updates.
I maintain precompiled versions of gtk+2 and all that other stuff, informally, to be installed via fink if you are interested.
If so, start here: My pre-compiled packages
Use the 64-bit version if you are able to.

Hello ryane84
The easiest and most efficient way to copy your music is to follow the steps under the External drive section. Make sure that you have organized the iTunes library first before you copy it over. Then put the copied iTunes folder in the same Music folder on your computer.

firefox 5 has lost all my chrome tab's and capabilities which came with FF4? how do I un install 5 and get back to my version 4 & retain all my bookmarks at least I's also like to retrieve my Chrome capabilities as well?

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

How do you un-install Lion and go back to Leopard?

How do I un-install Lion and return to Leopard?

I believe you mean to return to Snow Leopard:
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
(Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".)

Download and installed LR6 and nothing happens with it. Doesn't open or a thing. Now what?

Download and installed LR6 and nothing happens with it. Doesn't open or a thing. Now what? Do not know if I should uninstall it and try again or ????

I had the same problem (Lightroom CC doesn't appear to run on Widnows) and your solution worked for me. Note that it isn't enough to just close and restart Creative Cloud. This is what I did:
Open Creative Cloud
Open Preferences and hit Sign Out
Sign back in again...
Now start Lightroom CC. This brought up a dialog labelled Photoshop CC saying that it needed to be signed in. When I dismissed it Lightroom then started up.
Something else I noticed that may help diagnose this issue is that the file amt.log contained the line:
04/21/15 23:09:07:623 | [INFO] | | | | AMT | | | 8804 | Application licensing status has changed to unlicensed.

I downloaded and installed TB and it pre-configured my wife's mailbox instead of setting up a new one for me. Whats up with that?

I downloaded and installed TB and it pre-configured my wife's mailbox instead of setting up a new one for me.
The first time I ran it, there was her mailbox and all the msg's. I didn't input anything for a server, login or password. IOt just came up configured for her mailbox! Did it do that from the IP address or what?

I would guess that Thunderbird has been installed previously and it has simply rediscovered an old profile folder.
