I installed disc one but I'm missing disc two..

My macbook won't let me do anything but accept disc two which I don't have, so I'm just stuck at the waiting screen where it asks for disc two and I can't quit the installation. I NEED HELP please, thank you.

Contact Apple phone support to see if they still have the original OS X disks for your system (there would be a charge for them).

It helps if you provide details - not just a problem
What exactly dod you have and have you done?
What version of iPhoto did you have and what version do you now have? Of the OS? If you are upgrading from iphoto '08 or earlier did you download and RUN the iphoto library upgrader?

Have two browsers, Chrome and Chromium, flash is installed on one but not the other

Hi All,
I have spent a ton of time on this and am stuck.
I have two browsers, Chrome and Chromium, they both have separate profiles(Chrome has work profile Chromium has personal profile). The Chrome installation is fine, I have the plugins in the Chrome://plugins and everything is great.
The Chromium browser is not so great. I have tried the install maybe 30 different times. The scenarios are:
I have tried using the Chromium/Opera install-able
one with the browser closed
one with it open
I have tried the regular Chrome install-able
one with the browser closed
one with it open
I have tried the diagnostic tool: Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows - It says I have the plugin installed but it is not enabled. Then i look at the chrome://plugins and there are 3 plugins listed: Chrome PDF Viewer (2 files), Chromoting Viewer and Native Client, all of which are enabled.
I have tried to download and install directly from the installer site: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_ppapi.ex e
Any help would be really great.
Thanks so much.
Sean

Chrome comes with a built-in version of Flash Player. Everything else built on Chromium does not. Fortunately, there's a standalone PPAPI installer for Chromium-based browsers. It's only available for Windows at the moment.
Now, the browser itself may need to do some work to be able to discover and support Flash Player (particularly if they're not actively staying on the latest available PPAPI interface), so not every Chromium fork is going to work, and it's nowhere near as mature as the player in Chrome, but it's a thing that exists. We've been doing a lot of work with the Opera team on the PPAPI Flash Player, and Opera Next is an active Chromium-based project.
If you run into problems, please file bugs over at http://bugbase.adobe.com/.
Anyway, to get the download, use the link below.

I got a new iphone and i restored it from my old one but I'm missing a ton of photos. How can I download the photos from my old phone and get them to my new one?

Help please!

Restore it thru iTunes. At the prompt about using a backup, choose the other option to set up as a new iPhone.
Or, go to Settings/ General/ Reset/ Erase All Content and Settings, then don't select a backup.

Plugin-container 1.9.2.3989 fails, freezes up continuously and crashes on my computer. you install new ones but non seem to fix the trouble. why can't you fix this issue?

The other error message I get every day is that a script isn't working, and do I want to stop the script? Is this my computer or your program causing the issues?

Thanks a million for your input. I really appreciate it. I found the fix though in the troubleshooting section in the book I purchased from Dr. Smoke from the Forums. It's his X Lab for Tiger book. Dr. Smoke is THE BOMB! :~D I have to thank him again for his guru abilities!
There was a plugin that was afoul. The Xerox Accounting plugin was causing my print option not to respond along with the other buttons in the print window. I removed it from the plugin folder and now I can print. I'm glad that's all it was.
Thanks again!

Changing Apple ID - Currently sharing one, but need to split into two

My wife and I currently share the same Apple ID; however, she has her iPhone synced with the iTunes on her laptop and I have my iPhone synced with my iTunes on my separate laptop. The problem, of course, is that if we both use the cloud, all our info gets shared/synced together, which we don't want to do.
Is there a way for her to keep her current ID (so she doesn't have to change anything), but for me to change mine and keep access to all my apps, music, etc., in my iTunes library and on my iPhone? My understanding (which may be incorrect), is that if I change my Apple ID associated with my iPhone and iTunes (and all associated apps, music, etc.), that I may not get access to those any longer. Also, if I change the Apple ID associated with my iPhone/iTunes, I still want my wife to keep the same one we've been using.
Any tips or solutions appreciated? Apologies if this has been covered many times in the past.

I've been reading for hours & am only more confused. I hope someone can help me sort it all out!
First, I have a new iPhone 5s & new SIM card. I backed up my iPhone 4s & restored the info on the 5s.
My husband lost his iPhone & is taking over my iPhone 4s. He was sent a new SIM card.
I do not know how to set up the 4s phone for him & need advice!
Correct me if this is wrong, but we can have the same Apple ID--this will enable him access to all music & apps purchases? On the iphone 4s I changed to his email address & left my Apple ID for itunes & apps. When I tried to change the iCloud ID, it would not take it. Also when I tried to change the iMessage ID a message came up that if I deleted mine, I would not be able to receive iMessages on any device & I also have an iPad).
Would someone please tell me, in simple terms, the best way to set up my iPhone 4S so that my husband can have his own Mail, contacts, messages, etc & still be able to have access to my apps?.
I greatly appreciate any help I can get!

Re-install error on Disc Two - Tiger

Hello,
I backed up the contents of my hard drive then proceeded to erase and re-install tiger in order to clear my drive of unwanted clutter. 3/4 the way into installing disc two I got an "error during installation" message. After this message, the mac ejects disc two and asks me to re-insert disc two. It happened three times at the same point as it was installing a garageband application.
This is the second time I have used my install DVDs, the first being when I first received my mac. After my initial installation I left the discs in their original packaging, inside the 'everything else' sleeve and its been there since now. The disc does not show any scratches. It is grey and has Disc version 1.0 (2Z691-5975-A) written on it. Disc one shows it was Tiger 10.4.9
My problem is that I cannot get past the Disc two part of the install, which leaves my mac unusable due to a faulty disc. Is there any way I can get a replacement of disc two so I can complete the installation?
I saw a similar post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1437083
But their question wasn't answered....
Thanks for your help,
C

By all means get a replacement for disc 2. In the meantime if you perform a custom install, omitting a lot of fonts and application extras, you can get to the point where it won't ask for disc 2 to install extras and at least you can get your computer up and working again. Some of those extras are things such as iTunes which you can download. Others are unique to the disc. In that case if you can't wait you can try extracting them using [Pacifist|http://www.charlessoft.com>. It may be the errors on disc 2 are too much for the installer which is very fussy but may not affect some of the others things you could isolate with Pacifist.

Have iMac but no Install Discs - Can I buy them?

I inherited an iMac (Mid 2007) with Intel Core 2 Duo processor running at 2.4 GHz with a Glossy, widescreen display in 24-inch size, an anodized aluminum frame, and running on Mac OS X Version 10.4.11. I can log in and use the computer but I can not upgrade any of my software, (eg iTunes), because it asks for an administrator's password which I do not have. I can not change the password without an install disc, which I also don't have. What can I do?

Tiger might still be available at Apple Phone Sales 1-800-692-7753
Have a look at these

http://www.macyourself.com/2009/08/03/how-to-reset-your-mac-os-x-password-withou t-an-installer-disc/
Even if you manage by using one of these, you really don't want to be without the disc in case you ever need to do an Archive & Install or extract something that goes missing. Of course, a bootable cloned backup on an external drive is really essential.

Superdrive will read Tiger Install Disc, but not DVD's

I recently had my hard drive crash, so I installed a new one because I didn't have time to wait. The installation went fine, but now when I try to install Leopard, it won't read any DVD's, so I had to install TIger back on my Macbook. Are there any reasons that when I installed a fresh new hard drive that would make my superdrive need some other update or something, because it won't read DVD's?
Thanks

Hello smp450!
No, the new HD only needed to be reformatted for your Mac. Your original grey-label Tiger Install Discs are also DVDs, same as Leopard.
You may have missed the answer you received from Smokerz in your previous thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6686146#6686146
Now that you've installed the original Tiger OS onto your new HD, are you able to use the Leopard DVD to upgrade? If so, then there is no longer a problem, right? If there is still a problem, where did you purchase the Leopard DVD?

In firefox 4 RC, some addons installed suddenly disappear, but checking the profile, some of the missing addons related files are still here, how to make the addons back?

I use firefox 4 form beta 9 to RC (zh) now and there are also firefox 3.6 installed in computer. One day when I open Fx 4 RC, some (actually a lot but not all) of the adoons just disappear. When I check on about:addons page, some addons installed do not appear in the list.
The addons '''REMAINED''' including:
* addons I already used in Fx 3.6 (like webmail notifie , xmarks)
* ''addons only can use in Fx 4'' (like Open Web Apps for Firefox).
The addons '''DISAPPEARED''' including:
* addons I already used in Fx 3.6 (like yoono)
* '' addons installed when using Fx 4'' (like updatescanner, Thumbnail Zoom).
But when I check the profile(by Help > Troubleshooting Information>Open Containing Folder) , some (not sure is it all) of the missing addons related files are still here [lucky], so any one know how to make the missing addons back?
Some more details:
* This happened when i use RC for already a few days and keep on even i restart Fx and windows.
* The bookmarks, history, search engine and even themes and icon setting are still here. [ I only sync bookmarks but not history for both xmarks and firefox sync.]
* This addons are really '''disappeared''' but not disable only!
* This number of addons missed, as i remember, at least 30, should be more than that number bacause some of them are installed but in disable mode.
* I try to install back one of the addons - Stylish, the installed code are still here.
* It is nearly an impossible mission to install every missing addons again, as it really kill my time.

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar to do a compatibility check.

I have a G4 Titanium Powerbook currently running os 10.3.9.
I have been having troubles ever since upgrading to Quicktime a while back such as Quicktime not playing files, missing codecs, Pro-Tools and other software crashes, Itunes will not open with M-Box connected, etc.
I have tried to repair permissions with the disk utility and still same issues.
I have backed up all important files and would like to just reinstall the os 10.1 using the disc I got with the powerbook hoping to be able to upgrade back to 10.3.9.
I have tried to shutdown with the disk in and turn on with the c button pressed and it still boots up as usual.
I have also tried to restart holding c and still boots up as usual. I just cannot seem to get the powerbook to boot from the install disc.
The disc is the powerbook g4 mac osx 10.1 install disc.
What am I doing wrong?

powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Need to reformat. Missing Tiger Install disc.

I've been having multiple problems with my G5 for the past few days.
Here's a list in chronological order:
I came back from a vacation and my Mac took an incredibly long time to load up. Any program I tried to open either failed or took almost 10 minutes to open. Everything in the top right corner menu (time, airport) has been missing since then too.
Ran a hardware test, said everything was fine. Ran the usual verify/repair disk permissions. Said the HD couldn't be repaired.
I attempted to run a Mac OS software update, but it says it cannot be installed.
On top of that, when I plug my iPod into the mac, the computer recognizes it, however iTunes does not. I restored my iPod but that didn't work and now I have no music on it. (it is not in disc mode either.)
I've backed up everything as far as I know (Users, apps, etc.) and I want to reformat the drive. I cannot find my Tiger OSX Install Disc and only have my Panther OSX. Is there a way to reformat without having to reinstall the OS, and if not, will installing Panther cause problems?
I know that was lengthy, but I'd appreciate ANY help anyone can offer on any of those problems.
Thanks.

Trying to reset administrator password by using the Mac OS X Install disc to reset but it won't allow me to without original administrator password. Frustrating.

Trying to reset administrator name/password by using the Mac OS X Install disc to reset but it won't allow me to without original administrator name/password. Frustrating. Reason I'm trying to reset is that it seems to be not recognising the administrator name as have changed password in System Preferences - Accounts.
PowerMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Here's the instructions if you have the discs.
*Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password*
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274?viewlocale=en_US
Changing your administrator password
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh655.html
Here's one method to reset the password without the install disc:
1. boot computer and hold the "apple" key and the "s" key.
2. wait for terminal show
3. release keys
4. type without the quotes: "/sbin/mount -uaw"
5. press enter
6. type without the quotes: "rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
7. press enter
8. type without the quotes: "reboot"
9. press enter
This will let you create a new admin account when you reboot your computer.
Also, without the discs, look at Mac OS X Tip - No Password, No Root, No CD? No Problem.
http://www.macobserver.com/tip/2003/06/16.1.shtml
Without the discs, try this (OS 10.5 only). *How to Reset User Password via single user mode*
http://macosx.com/forums/howto-faqs/300019-howto-reset-user-password-via-single- user-mode.html
Here is a way to get around not knowing the admin password on Macs.
To reset your OS X password without an OS X CD you need to enter terminal and create a new admin account:
   1. Reboot
   2. Hold apple + s down after you hear the chime.
   3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
          * mount -uw /
          * rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
          * shutdown -h now
   4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can simply delete the old one and you’re good to go again!
