    Infact, I didn't deleted any partition, I created a new partition, in windows, using Computer Manager, then I formated this new partition, after that, it seems that windows changed the other partitions !!
    I boot my MacBookPro using a snow leopard Mac DVD, and click on Disk Utility.
    There is 3 partitions:
    Disk0S1 440 GB
    Disk0S2 60GB
    Disk0S3 2MB !!
    partition type for three of them is Wondows_LDM, not Mounted, and no more info about other parameteres.
    When I click on repair disk, or verify disk, it says: "reparing volume failed: Unrecognized file system"
    Note: when I purchased my macbook pro A1278, The Original osx was Lion.

  • Computer Crash Then error when installing Mac OS X Snow Leopard

    My computer was running fine for about one week on OS Yosemite. But just yesterday when i rebooted my computer it would not boot into the OS at all. It would just turn on then go to the gray start up screen the the whole computer would turn off. I tired restoring from a time machine backup three times with no luck then i decided just to buy a new hard drive and start fresh. So I installed the old Mac OS X Snow Leopard and now when i reboot i get this error in the picture. can someone please help me out. This is a late 2009 Mac Pro and i was hopping to keep this computer for at least two more years before retirement.

    I got it going. It seems that the boot disk needs to be in the first drive bay or it does not work. I think! But when i moved it it started working perfectly.

  • TS1394 im getting an error message when trying to install the snow leopard application cd 2. need  help.

    im getting an error message when trying to install the application cd on my Imac os x 10.6.4   what can I do to solve this problem?

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • Flash Player Square troubles in Mac OS X Snow Leopard

    For the last 2 - 3 days or so, I have been having severe problems with Flash Player Square Preview 2, 64-bit in Firefox 4.0 Beta 7.
    Most sites seem to work fine, but on YouTube nearly every video I try to play performs very poorly. The video lags horribly, and is very choppy and blocky.
    I have tried the following:
    1. Uninstalling/Reinstalling Flash Player - No Success.
    2. Deleted my Firefox profile. - No Success
    3. Playing videos with fresh profile and NO ADDONS. - No Success.
    and Finally,
    4. Reinstalled Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.5 - No Success.
    Also one more important thing to note, I had a friend with a similar setup(Firefox 4.0 Beta 7 - Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.5) as my own try it, and he too said that the videos are playing choppily with the same results.
    Flash does however, perform well on every site in 32-bit release versions of Firefox 3.6.X as well as Safari and Chrome. And it performed fine even in a 64-bit Browser earlier this week too.
    Also, I do not believe the problem is 64-bit related, since I get the same results if I tick the Open in 32-bit Mode check box in Get Info for Firefox 4.0 Beta 7.
    Any suggestions for this problem would be much appreciated.

    Did you want me to re-post this in that forum or can one of the mods from here move it?

    Hi @pkjbadala ,

    Repair the Disk Permissions on the Mac:

    On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.
    Double-click Disk Utility.
    Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left.
    Click Verify and then Repair Disk Permissions.
    Restart the computer..
    Reset the Printing System:
    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
    Click the Apple icon and then click System Preferences.
    Click Printers & Scanners.
    Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type the correct Name and Password.
    Click OK to reset the printing system.
    Then click the + sign to add the driver, highlight the printer. (you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name) Then click on the Add button.
    Try and print a document.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)

  • "Import failed" message when trying to import iPhoto library to PE11

    I receive an "Import failed" message when trying to import my iPhoto library to my trial version of PE11. I am running Mac OS X 10.7.5 and using iPhoto 11. Anyone able to help? I have tried 4 or 5 times now with the same result.

    If you're really sure you want to import the whole iphoto library (which is what that command does), then just export the photos to the desktop, put them where you want to keep them, and use File>Get photos and videos>from files and folders to import them. The 'from iphoto' command makes duplicates anyway, so you aren't losing anything by doing it this way.

  • I keep getting an "Update Failed" message when trying to update my apps using Creative Cloud.

    I keep getting an "Update Failed" message when trying to update my apps using Creative Cloud.

    [ Mac 10.9.3 / Indesign CC update fail / Premiere update fail / Adobe Media Encoder 7.2.2 update fail ]
    Adobe Media Encoder was the problem for me. There's no separate uninstaller for AME. My ID CC and Premiere couldn't be updated (for the AME7.2.2 update as the only change). MCMHMPEGVideoCodec.framework seemed to be the factor.
    I uninstalled Premiere (only), after having manually removed MCMHMPEGVideoCodec.framework from inside AME. After boot I installed it again and voilà, both (ID & Premiere) updates went trough fine. The MCMHMPEGVideoCodec.framework was on place inside AME too.

  • PSE9 & Win 8 - Get download failed messages when I update

    I deinstalled PSE9 from my Win XP,installed in Win 8 and get download failed messages when I update (to 9.0.3 & Camera Raw 6.5). Pressing the error message i get to a screen 'Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell' Adobe support asked me some qusetions via Chat and then told me to come here as they do not support older versions....can anyone help please?

    I have since found out by googling that the two updates (9.0.3 & Camera Raw) can be applied as patches separately outside of PSE9, did that, worked fine and when I go into PSE9, help,updates it says I am upto date and more importantly I can now edit my Raw images.

  • Why do I keep getting an "authentication failed" message when trying to join my network?

    Why do I keep getting an "authentication failed" message when trying to join my network?

    You may have to shut your computer off and pull the power adapter from both your ISP's Modem and your Router and wait 5 minutes and restart them in the following order.
    1st your ISP's Modem and wait a minute to get your signal and lights.
    2nd do the same with your Router and again you have to wait the minute.
    Last restart your computer and boot in OSX use Safari.

    That would be a good place to start since SMS is strictly a carrier feature.

  • Text messages in Safari are garbled on Mac Pro after Snow Leopard install

    When reading or composing my Yahoo mail text messages in Safari on my Mac Pro after Snow Leopard, the wording is very garbled. Looks like o's, s's, c's, some caps, with lots of spaces intermixed. Messages look ok on Firefox, on same machine. New messages and reading sent messages look ok on my MacBook and MB Air. When cutting and pasting into something else (like this window), the text looks fine. I can compose and send messages that look garbled, but the right words and letters go out. HTML messages look ok. Any clues for solution?

    I have this happening in bunch of different HTML pages. Here's a screenshot of the same page in Safari (Version 4.0.3 (6531.9)) and Mac OS X 1.6.1 side by side with Camino:
    https://dl.getdropbox.com/u/362958/miscwebimages/Screen%20shot%202009-09-22%20at%2018.35.47.png
    Camino renders the page correctly. Safari is really unusable with this problem. Tried switching to and from 64-bit mode in Safari, didn't help either.

    i have a mac os x snow leopard. my problem is that when i go to the ethernet settings it shows 'not connected'. i called the internet person even he couldn't fix it PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    System Preferences > Network > Ethernet? If that shows "not connected" that is all your Mac knows. As far as it is concerned there is no cable connected to the port on your Mac, or the other end of the cable is either disconnected or connected to something that is broken.
    Try another cable. If the cable is broken you will also get that status message. If you have exhausted all of these possibilities, the only remaining cause is an inoperative port on your Mac.
