How to start fresh and reinstall qmaster

I had G5 with previous version of Qmaster and shake installed.
I naively thought I could simply re-install Qmaster version 2.1 and then be able to add this G5 to my existing cluster.
At first I got the error message
Unable to start services because qmasterd is not running. Please consult your user's manual for more information.
Lot of help my user manual was with that.
trying to manually start/restart the service did no good.
I then tried to clean out the old install and reinstall the software.
In another article I found it suggested I clean out the pkg files and the Qmaster framework entries in /Library/Framework then reinstall.
well I was able to reinstall Qmaster 2.1 and get it to start in the background via the commandline
now if I try to open up the system preferences for Qmaster it crashes
I can change some preferences via the commandline using qmasterprefs but I am unable to join it to my existing cluster nor do I want to in the existing state.
can anyone lend some guidance in getting humpty dumpty back together again!

HI foro-mark , just been watching this thread.
I had this issue on our G5 QUAD suddenly from FCS 1 compressor (2) and could only finally resolve it by completely reinstalling the OS and the .apps.
yes.. sounds harsh, but fruitless hours of messing around I finally resorted to it. I could perform QMASTER work on another STARTUP volume as a test BTW, so assumed some corruption of one of the component resources used by QMASTER task on production startup disk.
It was clear that the addressing excetpion at x'00000000000....' was caused by a bad pointer form a register.... so data driven I expect becase by other system was ok.
for more details and the sorrows and tears .. see my post at http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4519684#4519684

How do i completely get rid of my Macintosh HD so I can start fresh and install mac os x Lion thumb drive

I just purchased the thumb drive for OS X Lion. As far as I know, because I only have 10.5.8 and I do not want to purchase Snow Lpd. I can just delete everything and start from scratch (according to an employee at the Apple Store). The problem is that I have no idea how to "start from scratch", its not as easy as dragging my Macintosh HD icon from my desktop to the trash can. HELP!

If you really want to start fresh and you have ANY PERSONAL files already backed up, or you don't care about them, stick the thumb drive in the USB port and reboot the system. Hold down the Option key when you hear the apple startup sound, let it go after about 15-20 second. That will give you a screen where you select which drive to boot off of, select the thumb drive. Once that has booted go to Disk Utility and RE-Partition the drive. That will wipe all information off it. Once that is done close Disk Utility and you will be back at the original screen. Select Install OS X Lion.
Have fun.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Lion uses Recovery to reinstall OS X. Press Command and R keys when your Mac starts, open Disk Utility, erase the drive and reinstall Lion. The other Mac has probably got its hard disk damaged, so take the Mac to an Apple Store

How do I remove and reinstall Mail under iOS?

My Mail program with both my iPad 2 and my iPhone 4S keeps growing constantly in size. My iPad Mail is now at 1.7 GB. ALL messages are deleted, trash is deleted, etc. The program just isn't reclaiming storage after deletions.
I filed a bug with Apple as an Apple Developer but, after about 3 weeks, I got a message from Apple indicating that the bug had been removed because it was a duplicate. In other words, other people also have this problem (it is possible that ALL people may not have it).
Two upgrades ago, my iPad had to totally re-install from scratch (something went wrong with the upgrade). The Mail program went back to about 50 MB. As mentioned, it has now grown back to 1.7 GB (on iPad 2, only 1.4 GB on my iPhone). At this size, it is taking a significant amount of my RAM -- it was probably the reason the upgrade failed two times ago (not enough free RAM).
I need to remove my mail program and reinstall it -- or even completely refresh my iPhone/iPad. I keep hoping Apple will fix the problem but 7.1.2 still hasn't fixed it.
How do I remove and reinstall Mail (or -- at the worst -- refresh the entire iOS device (using backups from iCloud for important settings)?
Thank you. It will probably be up to 2+ GB by the end of July.

You may a bit mixed up in your terms.
RAM in an iPad/iPhone is like the RAM in your computer. It's used to run the operating system and open apps.
On the other hand, your storage space (16GB, 32GB, etc) is like the capacity of your computer's hard drive.
If you are short of storage space, look at these links.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. I suspect corrupt software. How do I uninstall and reinstall the software? Adobe's on-line instructions are only for Window devices.

You can just drag the file to the trash. If you want you can remove the pdf plug-in from the internet-plug in folder, but that should not be necessary to correct your problem.

One of my applications does not open. how can i delete and reinstall, one of my applications does not open. how can i delete and reinstall

One of my applications does not open. how can i delete and reinstall it?

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

How can I delete and reinstall iPhoto?

There is an issue with the new operating system and iPhoto when creating a book, how do I delete and reinstall iPhoto?

drag the iPhoto application to the trash and
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first
However it would be a good idea to tell us what is going one - most likely you need to fix your library not reinstall the application - it is rare to need to reinstall the Application

How to uninstall itune and reinstall it again?

how to uninstall itune and reinstall again?

Before you try un-installing iTunes you need to de-authorize the computer (otherwise, as I found out the hard way, iTunes will think that you've got 2 authorized computers on your account instead of just one). You should also make sure that you have full backups of all your media content. You can also back up the iTunes library file which contains your ratings, play counts, etc... which, depending on the size of your library, will save a bucketful of time after the re-installation.
If you've on a pc then the uninstall itself works the same way as if you were uninstalling any other software: go to Add or Remove Programs, select iTunes, click "Remove"... and wait (it'll take a while to complete). Then go to the iTunes website and download it.
After that, you can re-load your media files, and import the library, from your backups. iTunes should work just as well as it did before the re-installation.
Hope this helps!
