HT4561 Mac OS X v10.6.8 starts to install, gets within 4 minutes of completion, then error pops up saying "can't be saved, cannot connect to server".... suggestions? Tried several times....
Having trouble with installation, won't complete and errors out saying can't be saved and can't connect to server
Hmmm, not sure how “ ” got into the title of my Question.
I realize the title is very general but didn’t know specifically what the trouble was.
More information may lead to some replies.
Today I turned off Time Machine (TM) automatic backups. So far no problems all day & when I checked the Console logs I saw no “LaunchServices: bad alias ...” entries. Many instances of these yesterday at the time of the problems.
Do I need to:
Rebuild the Launch Services database?
Reset Launch Services?
Trash the Launch Services plist file under preferences?
Have 2:
com.apple.LaunchServices.plist (4KB)
com.apple.LaunchServices.QuarantineEvents (303KB)
I cleared the Cache & History in both Safari & Firefox just in case.
I checked Console Crash Reports & see both a Dock & a Finder crash report from one of the times I had the problems. That can’t be good.
I installed AppleJack & may use it to clear all my Caches depending on what replies I get here.
Hopefully, this is now enough information for some suggestions on how to proceed.
I’m going to restart & then w/o opening any other programs, re-enable TM automatic backup & see if the trouble reoccurs.
Thanks for any help.

Result for ftp://192.168.1.102 works.
May i know which of the setting did i missed out.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers
LokiDid you tried to assign static IP (ex. 192.168.1.10) to the computer on which you want to setup ftp server? And then forward the ports for this ip address on the router. Dont assign ip address which is in the DHCP range of the router. Try doing forwarding first and if it doesnt work then go for triggering.

Why can't I download adobe flash player-I have tried several times
Why can't I download adobe flash player, I have tried everal times
The download does not install Flash. You should find the downloaded file in your Downloads folder. Double-click on the .dmg file then double-click on the installer icon once the disc image has been mounted.

Updates for PS CS5 keep failing, have tried several times but no luck
I've just installed Photoshop CS5 on my laptop, running Windows Vista SP2. When trying to update the software, i keep getting a download error:
Adobe Bridge CS5 4.0.5 Update
There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
Adobe Extension Manager CS5 5.0 Update
There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Photoshop CS5
There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
I'm not that tech savvy when it comes to analyzing log files to see what the error is (that was Adobe's suggestion!) so can't go down that route.
I've tried several times via the programme, and also via the Adobe download website, but still get the same errors. I'm also unable to update the programe on my PC running Windows 7. I realise that Adobe want everyone to update to CC, but I cant afford to do that! Anybody got any solutions?Please clean AAM cache By deleting following folder contents:
For Mac:
· /Volumes/%Volume Name%/Users/%Username%/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdater/1.0
For Win:
· C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Adobe\AAMUpdater\1.0
Then try running Updates.

after downloading updates for the first time, i was asked to restart my mac. it started writing configuring installation. the staus bar just showed a little and remained like that for more than 3 hrs. i tried several times wit no success. it has not updated my mac OS X 10.5.
My clean install worked out alright, although I don't think it really fixed anything, rather gave me a couple more days of use 'till I have to send it in. Someone please help my get it running properly again...

You need to install Office on the computer from the installer DVD or disc image you purchased.

Error number 148.3 Licensing for this product has stopped working. I rebooted several times to no avail. Still get the same error message everytime I try to start Photoshop. I'm using Windows 7 -- 64 bit
If you can not use CS4 menu Help>Activate|Deactivate to get the install working again you may need to re-install CS4.

On Windows Vista and tried several times to start up my iTunes, but keep getting 'application failed MSVCR80.dll error-7 (windows 126) is this an easy fix ...?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Hi, I have connected my iPhone 5 to iTunes, backed it up and then started the update but there was a problem, now my phone will not work, it asks to restore factory settings which I have tried 3 times, each time it says the device has an unknown error and the phone switches off. Please help.
Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help. Thanks Apple for such a crappy update! I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone. Sheesh! If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?
The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=10.6+snow+leopard&_sacat=0&_odkw=mac+os+10.6 &_osacat=0
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is still $29. You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications. -

I have tried several times to open iTunes. First I get a message that says that it's encountered a problem and then it said that it needs to close. It also says that windows will notify me of a solution. I've even tried uninstalling it as well as installing it again even downloading it again and still no luck. Any suggestions?
I guess I'm just lucky.
I've had my black 5Gb Zen Micro over 2 years, used nearly daily and zero problems.
I bought a red 8Gb Zen MicroPhoto last summer, for the car. Again, plugged it in, loaded a bunch of music, never looked back. Another daily player, and all it's done is play music flawlessly.
I also bought a silver 52Mb MuVo TX FM last summer for outdoor stuff and it did have one problem around December, but re-loading the firmware took maybe 5 minutes and it's been perfect ever since.
At least in my experience, Creative players have been trouble free and good value.
My brother got an iPod Shuffle given to him for a Christmas present and it locked up the first day. He ended up selling it and buying a Gb Zen Nano Plus. -
I receive a "not connected to the internet message" several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via a cable modem. Software/firmware is up to date on the iMac (OSX 10.6.8) and Tme Capsule(7.5.2). Browser is Safari 5.1.
When I input my password at the prompt to enter network preferences, all the lights go green (ie... ethernet, ISP etc.) and the connection re-establishes immediately and states "the connection appears to be working normally".
It more of a nuisance than anything and seems to have started ocurring over the past couple of months. I also have a windows XP box also connected to the same cable modem that I never have internet connectivity issues with. I've verified all the physical aspects of the connections and can't see any evidence of any actual drops in the modem logs. I suspect it is just an intermittent communication loss between the Imac and the Time Capsule, but I am not very familiar with Mac equipment yet.
Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem and what you did (if anything) to resolve it?
Thanks.The AirPort Express will connect to your existing wireless network if the network is using WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings.
So, it can join the network as a client and then provide an Ethernet signal to your Time Capsule.
Be sure to configure the Time Capsule to operate in Bridge Mode so that it will be operating on the same network.
