I have BOTH Tiger and Leopard installed in my new iMac now .... and ...

Yesterday I decided to take the risk - I formated my iMac's HD, made three partitions - one for Tiger, one for Leopard and another for the CS3 usage. I installed Tiger without the 1.1 upgrade but installed ALL upgrades including 1.1 and 1.3 in Leopard.
All day today I tried different apps under Leopard including iTunes, iPhoto, Photoshop and illustrator CS3. So far so good ... haven't got any serious problem, such as sys freeze or crush, yet.
It was actually a wonderful delight to know that I could easily access all my files from each OS without reboot.
I love Leopard but was a bit disappointed to find out it's not as fast and stable as Tiger. I see the rainbow ball spinning quite often in Leopard (rarely see it in tiger.) The internet connection drop very often while working perfectly in Tiger. The most annoying thing is: my 5 month old Canon printer does not work under Leopard. Whenever I need to print anything I have to reboot and login to Tiger.
Another very strange problem which occurred in Leopard really puzzled me.
I was going to install the diver for my printer in Leopard this morning. Before I did it, I went to Disc Utility to verify and repair permissions. I read a article somewhere here that says one should do this verify and repair permission task every time BEFORE and AFTER install or upgrade anything. Although I never actually understand the concept of repairing permissions and why it's necessary to do it all the time ( can anyone kind enough to make it a bit easier to understand? ... IF the system can check and repair the error itself, why can't it do it automatically without us order the task EVRY TIME we install or upgrade anything?) , I followed the advice anyway.
The whole process of 'verify and repair permission' took about 20 minutes. During the process it concerned me why it took so long since my Leopard is 'fresh' - newly installed in a formated partition without any 3rd party app installed. When the result came out I found myself saying ' OH MY G**!!!' ....
Have a look:
*There were more than 100 repaired items!!! why?* (What you see above is only part of it)
I don't understand what ACL is and why this has happened ... Can anyone kind enough to help me understand it?)
Thanks a lot!!

Can I have both Lion and Snow Leopard on One Hard Drive?

My problem is I need to run a PowerPC game on Lion which Lion no longer supports. So i thought i could download Snow Leopard back to my Mac and partiition my hard drive in the process as that is the only way i know of to have both Lion and Snow Leopard. I went through the Boot Camp Asistant process and it seems it will only partition Windows 7 to my Mac when i need Snow Leopard. If anyone has any idea how to help me have both Lion and Snow Leopard at the same time on just one hard drive or figure out how to run the PowerPC programs on my Mac (if there is a way around it). The help will be well appreciated!

How To Run Snow Leopard On A New Mac
This does not apply to new Mac Minis or MacBook Airs. When newer models are introduced that also require Lion for hardware support, the techniques described below will no longer work with the possible exception of using Parallels 7.
What has to be done:
Create a new partition on the hard drive.
Get a clone of a 10.6.8 Snow Leopard system. Put the cloned Snow Leopard system onto the new partition.
Step One: Create a new partition on the hard drive
To resize the drive and create a new partition do the following:
1.    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
       After the main menu appears select Disk Utility and click on the Continue button. Select the hard drive's main entry then click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
2.   You should see the graphical sizing window showing the existing partitions. A portion may appear as a blue rectangle representing the used space on a partition.
3.    In the lower right corner of the sizing rectangle for each partition is a resizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and move the bottom of the rectangle upwards until you have reduced the existing partition enough to create the desired new volume's size. The space below the resized partition will appear gray. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed. (Note: You can only make a partition smaller in order to create new free space.)
4.   Click on the [+] button below the sizing window to add a new partition in the gray space you freed up. Give the new volume a name, if you wish, then click on the Apply button. Wait until the process has completed.
You should now have a new volume on the drive.
It would be wise to have a backup of your current system as resizing is not necessarily free of risk for data loss. Your drive must have sufficient contiguous free space for this process to work.
Step Two: Obtain a clone of a Snow Leopard system:
You will need access to a Mac already running Snow Leopard. You will need a 16 GB USB flash drive or an external hard drive to which you can clone the Snow Leopard system from the Mac that has Snow Leopard installed. Alternatives are:
Option One:
Install a new Snow Leopard system onto a USB flash drive. Boot the Mac used for installing with the USB flash drive. Update the flash drive system to 10.6.8 using the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard. Verify that you can boot the Mac with the USB flash drive.
Take the USB flash drive to your new Mac and try booting from it. If it works then clone the system from the flash drive to the newly made partition:
          Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
          Destination means the new partition on the internal drive. Source means the USB flash drive.
Option Two:
If you have a large enough external drive you can erase and use, then it would be easier to just clone the entire Snow Leopard system from the source Mac computer to the external drive.
          Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
          Destination means the external drive. Source means the Snow Leopard Mac's internal drive.
After cloning verify that it will boot the source Mac. If so then take the external drive to your new Mac boot with it. If all is well then restore the clone to the new partition on your new Mac:
          Restore the clone using Disk Utility
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
          Destination means the new partition on the internal drive. Source means the external drive.
If the above seems too daunting then you might consider running Snow Leopard inside an emulator such as Parallels 7. You are permitted to install a single copy of Snow Leopard inside a virtual machine. You will need to first purchase a copy of Parallels 7 and install it on your new Mac. Create a new virtual machine configured for Mac OS X. You may then install Snow Leopard in the virtual machine then download Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and update to 10.6.8. Be sure to include Rosetta in your initial Snow Leopard installation. Rosetta is not installed by default rather it's an optional install.

Need help: I have G4 Tiger and want to install PPC G5 1.5 GHz

I bought a used G4 with Tiger 1.4 on it. I need to install 1.5 to get Vonage softphone and I am not sure how to do it, where to find it, if it can be done, etc. Can anyone help - in plain English - not techy talk, because I will not understand you.

I bought a used G4 with Tiger 1.4 on it. I need to install 1.5 to get Vonage softphone and I am not sure how to do it, where to find it, if it can be done, etc.
Well, Tiger is OSX version 10.4 In addition there are sub-versions such as 10.4.2, 10.4.6, up to the latest sub version 10.4.11 (note, that is an eleven at the end). The information you report doesn't really fit into this pattern so we need to determine what exactly it is that you have installed.
Jumping ahead, if by "1.5" you really mean "10.5" that isn't Tiger at all but Leopard. To get that on your computer you will have to purchase a retail (discs black in color) installer set of Leopard from Apple online, from a retailer near you, or used. If you buy used make certain it is the black retail set of discs, not gray ones as those will not install on your computer.
One other thing added in edit. You say, "I have G4 Tiger and want to install PPC G5 1.5 GHz" A G4 is one kind of computer, a G5 is another. I think at this stage it would help greatly to determine what exactly it is you have since that will affect what kind of systems you can run. Go to the apple in the upper left hand corner of your screen. Select "About this Mac" then "more info" Copy and paste the information in a reply but remove the serial number. You can paste that serial number into [this linked web site|http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html] and copy and paste the model information here.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Can we have both 9i and 10g db running on the same machine

Hi,
I want to to exp/imp upgrade of my 9i db to 10g db.
Can I have both 10g and 9i installed on the same server?
Thanks,
Kavitha

Yes, provided that the HW, OS version and Patch level are certified for both 9i and 10g.
Install 10g into a seperate ORACLE_HOME -- whether under the same "oracle" account or a different (e.g. "oracle10g" account).
However, you should consider 11g as 10g is being desupported this month (i.e. no new patches / fixes will be available for 10g)

Is there a special pricing plan for non-profits, similar to the plans for students, small business, etc? Thanks for whatever help you can give me. (P.S. As a potential customer and past user of Adobe products for 15 years, I find it INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING that I cannot speak with any Adobe representative, but am continually re-routed instead to a public forum to get what I hope will be accurate information. Not good, Adobe. Your products are amazing. Your customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I don't mean that with disrespect, but as honest feedback.)

Hi bookchic
Thanks for your feedback.
Non-profit pricing is available to eligible institutions via the VIP program which is sold by resellers - see Eligibility guide

I am trying to export a video from Premiere Pro. I have both audio and video checked and the sequence is active but only the audio exports. There is no video at all. Can anyone tell me how to get the video to export. It was working fine until today.

Premiere Pro CC has been working fine until today. I have completed my sequence and it is active. I have both audio and video checked when I am exporting using H.264 with Match Source Hi bitrate. I am choosing entire sequence. The audio exports but the video and title does not. Can anyone tell me how to troubleshoot this so I can complete this project? Please!

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Have BOTH .m4a and .m4p versions of same purchased songs after re-import

Hello,
I recently had to reconstruct my iTunes library (new machine, new installation) and so I did an "Add to Library" of my library folder into an empty iTunes library. After import, I've discovered that for about 215 songs which I've purchased from the iTunes Store, I have both .m4a and .m4p versions of each of these songs. If I view the "Kind" of each song within iTunes, the .m4a shows a "Kind" of "Purchased AAC Audio File", and the .m4p version shows a "Kind" of "Protected AAC Audio File". If I show the Bitrate, each copy of each song is the same, 256 Kbps. If I view each song file in the Finder, the .m4a is about double the size of the .m4p. I have a few questions surrounding this:
1. Why are the sizes of the song files so drastically different?
2. Some time ago I took advantage of that DRM-free promotion, so I am suspecting that this may have had something to do with me having both protected and non-protected copies of these files. However, I am curious why both files now show in my library, whereas before, they did not -- only one copy showed. Does anyone know why both song copies are now showing?
3. Should I keep both of these files?
4. Is there a way to manage these files in iTunes so that only one copy shows? They both show when duplicates are hidden, because they are different, or iTunes doesn't know of the association I suppose. But of course that messes up trying to play an album -- every song plays twice.
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Brad

No--nothing gets deleted when you convert. You get two copies of the song in your library. (On Edit: I haven't done this with the latest version of iTunes. I assume nothing gets deleted just like before. To check--maybe you should convert ONE song and see if you get a duplicate in a smaller version, or just a smaller version! I've always gotten duplicates!)
I did leave out a few steps on how I do this--but if you're interested here's how I do it. Make the playlist. Then go to Edit>Select All. Then I go back to the top line: Advanced>Convert Selection to AAC. (To be able to do this you have to have your import option set to AAC 128 kps under the advanced tab in your Preferences settings. After you do the conversion make sure you set this tab back to your preferred lossless import option!)
You will get two copies of the songs in your library. Your original playlist will contain the lossless songs, so you'll have to pull the AAC songs back out into a play list. You can find them easily by sorting your library by "Kind" and then pulling the AAC files into a playlist. You can label this iPhone--or whatever.
After you load the playlist onto your iPhone, uncheck it so the songs are not duplicated in your library. If you ever want to delete them, you have to do this inside your library or the file will remain on your computer. (It does take a while to run the conversion--so I rarely delete things afterwards if I think I'm going to use the file again.)
Post back if you still have other questions.

Does NI-6008 have both scan and channel clocks ?

Does the NI-6008 have both scan and channel clocks whose rate can independently be set in LabVIEW ? I would like to acquire say 100 samples on one channel at 10 kHz and repeat this at 10 Hz rate. So 100 samples would be acquried at a 100 usec interval period (channel clock), then there would be a gap in time where no samples are acquired, then this process repeated again 100 msec (scan clock) later.
Steve

SteveP,
"Does the NI-6008 have both scan and channel clocks whose rate can independently be set in LabVIEW ?"
Yes and No. You can set the sample rate (scan rate) on the
USB-6008/6009 but you cannot set the convert clock rate (channel clock)
on the USB-6008/6009.
Also, you cannot use an external clock with the USB-6008/6009 (in both the DAQmx driver and the DAQmx Base Driver).
The lack of both these feature limits you to one option to complete the task you want.
If you want to take 100 samples at 10kHZ every 100msec (10Hz) then you
will have to do a conintuous acqusition at 10kHz and use post
processing to drop the samples you do not need.
I hope this helps,

Adobe errors: upgrade sw from 5.5 to 6 + install 6 on new iMac - serial number 'errors'

Hello- I had 5,5 Design Stardard. I upgraded to 6. Design Standard last year.
I tried to update my MacPro laptop and I encounter errors with my serial number. I did change the HD name on the Laptop.
I also just got a new iMac and I moved the 6.0 version over to it - no go. HELP FAST! please.... Adobe support s**ks
Thank you
B

did you deactivate whatever you want to install no that was installed on your previous hd?
if not, you'll probably need an activation count reset, http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html
next, is your design standard cs6 license an upgrade? if yes and you do not have design standard cs5.5 installed on your new hd/imac, you'll need to supply both (cs5.5 and cs6) serial numbers when installing the cs6 upgrade. you'll need to give the correct number at the correct time.

iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY??? How do I get it?

It did come pre-installed, have you looked in the Applicaitons folder and have you checked Trash to see if you (or some other user on your computer) threw it in there? If it's still not there, then restart in the Recovery Partition on your iMac (hold down the Option key when you hear the startup tone) and choose re-install OS X.
