I'm a newb to OS9 and need some help
Hey everyone, I just picked up a wallstreet powerbook, and i put a 30GB HD in it, i read about the 8GB boot limit, and partitioned accordingly, but now when i put the install disk in, i can't install itunes! It opens up with stuffit, and says "The Disk with your preffered destination folder is currently locked" Error-44, then i hit ok, but after that i have no idea what to do! Should i install apps on the System Disk (I have a System Disk and a Storage Partition) and just have all the docs (music and what not) 0n the storage? I'm prolly just gonna xpostfacto it soon and put panther on it, but i kinda like OS9, so can someone help me?
Hi, ze -
"The Disk with your preffered destination folder is currently locked"
That message, or one similar to it, is usually returned when the destination disk for the installer is set as a CD. Since a CD can not be written to, it is treated by the OS as if it were a locked volume.
You will need to select a volume on a hard drive as the destination. I suspect that the iTunes installer will need to install a few items in the OS 9 System Folder, so a good choice for a destination would be the volume you have installed OS 9 onto.

I'm new to itunes and need some help. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to download an album which has explicit songs without actually downloading the songs that are explicit?
See if there's a non-explicit version and download that? Just download the individual songs you want, and not the others?
Honestly, your phrasing doesn't make sense. You're asking how to download an album without downloading its tracks? -

Hey Forum peeps,
I have a treo 700wx working on Sprints network and running on windows mobile version5. I am a BIG game freak and am looking to download a playable version of Maniac Mansion (any version) and I dont know how to go about doing this. I have read it is a playable game but I am NO techie and need to be walked through step by step so hopefully someone out there will remember what it was like to first start out and give me a helping hand.
Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Sprint)Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums. This process is used to install any 3rd party program onto your 700wx. First connect the usb cable and sync. Now on your computer go on the web and find you program/game you are looking for that is in a windows mobile 5 format, compatable with wm5 and download it to your computer. It will be a compressed file in a .zip format most likely. Go to where you saved the file and right click on it and select extract here. Once extracted you should have a setup file which you run to install the program. Follow that process and it will realize it is a windows mobile file and install it accross the cable to the 700wx. When it is finished on the computer it will tell you to check the 700wx for further instructions. At that point check the screen on the device and follow the directions. The key is to download a file that is windows mobile compatable, if you download a palm os format file or other mobile operating system file it will not install. Hope that helps.

Chain step is being skipped and need some help with why?
Hi, all.
I'm hoping for some help from the community again.
There's a chain created (code below) and it's running successfully -- at least it's building MOST tables.
The problem is: the last three tables are all dependent on the same condition and only two of them run.
From the code below, step 4, step 5 and step 6 are all dependent on the success of step 3.
When the job for this chain is run, all the steps run successfully except for step 5.
The interesting thing (to me at least) is that whichever table build is step 5 fails. For example, in the code below prog_Y is assigned to step 5 and it fails. If I swap prog_Y to step_4 and prog_X to step_5, step_5 still fails. Same result if prog_Z is listed as step 5. While steps 4 and 6 run successfully.
The additional info in job run details lists: table or view does not exist. However, I've confirmed the procs behind the programs each run successfully and the tables do exist.
I've tried several things to get more info: changing the step numbers.dropping/redefining step, dropping chain and redefining, retyping the steps and rules.
Please help. Any suggestions of why this step 5 might be failing or where to look for more information is super helpful.
Thanks so much
Fritz

Looks like this may have been a self-inflicted error.
There were some other errors that confound this explanation. But right now this seems to be the most likely case.
The END condition initially was step 6 completed. Turns out, when step 3 succeeded, all steps 4, 5 and 6 were kicked off simultaneously. Well, step 6 had a shorter run time than step 5. So step 6 would finish and trigger the end of the chain before step 5 finished.
This has been consistently working since the END condition was updated to evaluate steps, 4, 5 and 6.

In a Bind and Needing Some Help ASAP
Hello-
I need my MacBook Pro with Safari (latest version) and OS X 10.6.6 tomorrow for a presentation and I tried just like I did with the last Flash update to install it and I messed things up. TechTracker told me there was an update for Flash so I clicked "yes" to download and install. I am new to TechTracker and installing Flash, but whatever happened my MacBook is not useable right now and it was before I clicked "OK" to update Flash.
I also tried it on my own, but there must be more detailed instructions than what Adobe makes obvious to newbies (Flash update newbies).
since I use Safari as my browser, it shows what plug-ins I have on a webpage that is part of Safari browser. First off, is it too early to update to the latest version of Flash? is this a program that I should wait awhile when a newer version comes out?
If it is OK to go ahead and update Flash, can somebody lead me to a link or website that explains how to update Flash? it obviously is not like other programs, because I have done the install ust like I would other programs or updates but I am not getting it right.
I would really appreciate it if somebody could guide me through the process or send me to a site that explains what I need to do.
Finally, I have heard that Shockwave Player (which is not installed on my macBook Pro) is a great program along with Flash to have on my macBook pro. is this true or am I risking causing more conflicts and/or problems by installing shockwave for macs once I get Flash straightened out.Yikes, ArrayIndexOutOfBounds (stanz answer)
Here is working code that does what you want.
* This method finds the smallest Int value in the array.
public static int findSmallest(int[] array) {
int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
for (int i = 1; i < (array.length); i++) {
if (array[i] < min)
min = array;
return min;
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
Test t = new Test();
Scanner scan = new Scanner(new FileInputStream("C:\\Testing\\junk\\classes\\new.txt"));
int size = scan.nextInt();
scan.nextLine();
int[] array = new int[size];
for(int i = 0; i< size; i++)
array[i] = scan.nextInt();
scan.nextLine();
int smallest = findSmallest(array);
System.out.print(smallest);
} // end method

I need to call some privileged APIs and need some help on this.
First the Basics:
This program auto-launches each time a user logs in. It is an authentication type of program. Only users with this app running will be allowed to use a secure network.
I need to be able to read and write from the route / arp tables, and possibly be able to 'reset' a network adapter. These are the privileged APIs I need to call. I have only found "UNIX" APIs to do this, no apple APIs although I am sure they would have the same restrictions.
Anyway, what I don't want is that elevate privileges prompt each time a user logs in. I am sure this would become very annoying.
Possible solutions (I have no idea how to do these):
1. The installer sets it up to run with admin / privileged access when it starts. I only know how to get a program to start with user privileges (the one that logged in).
2. The installer flags / registers something that this app can make those API calls. IE: The App is trusted.
3. The program is split in to two parts and uses Interprocess communication to talk to the privileged part. This still leaves problem #1, how do you get an app to launch as privileged.
Any other ideas and suggestions would be welcomed.What you normally do in this case is write a kernel extension that does all the work and then have a user interface that the user runs. What you are describing sounds very much like a VPN. This is exactly how the Cisco VPN software works, for example.

HELP! I'm new at this and need some help getting started
I am currently working on our website and was wondering how do I make a new page?
for example.
I want people to click on a link on the homepage to say a stockist list and see another page open with that information on.
Also I need to know how to make the homepage have white strips on the left and right (for an example of what I mean please visit www.internationalrobes.com)
I look forward to your replies!
CarlyWell, these are more web design related questions, but I will help as much as I can in the context.
Going about adding a page:
1) Navigate to Admin > Layout > Static pages
2) Add a new static page here and enter your content
3) Once it is saved, you should see an eyeglasses icon next to the page and you can copy that url and use it in a link.
4) For example
<a href="common/pagedetail.aspx?PageCode=test">My link here</a>
As far as the white stripes, I think you mean centering a page?
1) Edit the main master page under your theme
2) Center the content using css, more info here: [http://www.thesitewizard.com/css/center-div-block.shtml]
I think you would also benefit from the WebEx i created on implementing a layout into Webtools available here: [http://www.businessoneecommerce.com/developerdownloads/Implementing_a_Webtools_Theme.zip] -
I think I made a major error and need some help.
Well, I sort of knew this was a bad idea but you know how it goes sometimes. I put the Tiger OS disk from my intel imac to try and get garageband to use on the portable. Those of you who are smarter than me know what happened next the computer boots into a horrible looking kernal situation and says: holding here. I have tried booting in safe mode to no avail and the disk will not come out. Did I kill my powerbook? is there any fix for this? I would greatly appreciate any help on this matter.
imac intel 17, 15" powerbook Mac OS X (10.3.9)Okay have you tried to zap the P-Ram using optioncommand/apple+pr when booting up until you hear the chimes/dingdong type sound ?
Alternatively shiftctrl+commandpower button = immediate shutdown and will reset the bios + clock/time.
You can also try to hold down the option key just after pressing the power on button and holding it till a blue/purple screen appears to show start up disks and then after all rotating thingy's stopped click the eject button or press the eject button.
Also there is something like pressing the right mouse button using an external mouse while booting or something like this ??
It has been some time since I tried it.
PS: If you need garage band once the OSX is up and running you should be able to insert the disk and install optional programs IE: Garage band etc.
I usually right click / ctrl click on the install disk where the Install Tiger icon is and select "SHOW PACKAGE CONTENT" and then browse for files looking for garageband.pkg or similar.
Usually in the system/library/packages folder that is hidden on the install disk or similar , you have to search for it and copy it off for future use.
There is a app that can enable hidden files or make it back to what it is now but I have forgotten the name , just search macupdate.com for "hidden files" and you will find many options.
Hope this helps. -
Just purchased a used G4 and need some help
First, let me say, that I am finally returning to the fold after years of working on a PC (employers insisted) but have just purchased a used G4 running OS 10.3.8 I've registered the G4 and everything, and tried to update the OS. I got a "mounting failed" message. It may be because the previous owner left a password in the automatic update file and didn't tell me what it was. Also, they did not provide me with the original installation discs so I could use administrator access to disable this password! Anyway, I want to update the OS as far as it can go - any idea how I can do this? I've searched around the apple site for a while now, seeing if I could purchase replacement installation discs, but can't find any into. If I just go ahead and purchase the 10.4 upgrade, can I install it without upgrading from 10.3.8?
Sorry if these are basic questions, but my last mac was an Apple IIc be kind.Hello nebpen,
"While the lamp hold out to burn, the vilest sinner may return!"
Welcome back!
As the Texas Mac Man says, you need the install CDs (and Applerescue is a good source). Your DA will run any Apple OS out there at its latest update. I happen to prefer Panther, mostly, I suppose, because it's simpler ... or run them both!
Further, IMHO, the DA is the sweet spot in balancing cost and performance. I'm still feeling my way with upgrades, but every day mine seems to run better. I've just discovered how to adapt an 867mhz QS cpu, so the backup is now running faster than the Main Mac, and I even had to install Tiger (10.4.10) to take advantage of the latest Google Earth. What incredible pictures!
Anyhow, welcome!

Brand new to the Mac World and NEED SOME HELP with startup disk issues
Hello everyone. I am a new Mac user and I purchased my mac on ebay. It's an iMac that came with tiger 10.4.11. I wanted to get a fresh start on the computer, since the person who had it before me did not erase all of his stuff. I didn't know what to do so I got a startup disk/install disk off ebay also. When I go to install it says "software cannot be installed on this computer." Before I bought the software, I had called the apple store and they said it should be fine to buy any install software to put on the computer. If I could get any help it would be appreciated. I had read previous threads that I should hold down c when I start up (didn't work) or that I should select archive or erase and install (I never got these options when I went to install).
A warm welcome to the Discussions!
What iMac is it? I only ask as the Retail Tiger CD/DVDs don't work on IntelMacs, only PPC, (G3, G4, G5 Macs).
Sorry what you were told by the Apple Store, but if it's a Gray CD/DVD then it is Machine specific as Neil stated.
Sooo, what exact iMac is it, and what does it say on the CD/DVD? -

Dear Mozilla,
I am having some difficulty accessing the internet with Firefox on one of my PC computers. I normally use Mozilla Firefox as my web browser and google is my homepage and gmail is my email system. The operating system is Windows 7. For over a year this system worked perfectly but a few days ago it stopped working. When I launch Firefox now I get the message that that website (www.google.com) is unavailable. In fact, I can’t access any website and I am blocked from the internet entirely within Firefox. My internet connection is fine because Internet Explorer works fine. I can access google and any other website within that web browser. I have investigated all the security issue I can manage and found no smoking gun. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox to no avail. Is Windows 7 compromising the effectiveness of Firefox? Any suggestions or other assistance you can offer would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Randy Brown

I want to use elements 11 with an external hard drive and need some help.
I have a macbook pro and was fine using iphoto 09 as my image manager and editor. I soon filled my hard drive and purchased a 1tb external hard drive. I moved my iphoto library to the external drive while keeping iphoto on the macbook. I recently installed elements 11 and was using it as an external editor with iphoto. I began to play around with the organizer and found that I liked it. My question is how do I move my iphoto library to elements 11 organizer while still keeping the photos on the external hard drive.
If you import from iPhoto into Elements Organizer, the files will be copied to your hard disk and all the organization done in iPhoto09 will be carried forward to Organizer catalog. This can be done if you have enough space on your hard disk. However if you want to use Organizer solely + not create duplicate copies of your images, you can import photos directly from the Hard Disk. Ensure to write all metadata to files within iPhoto so that when the same photos are imported into Organizer, the tagging done is brought along.
Thanks

Tab Limit Reached, Can't Open A New Tab Until You Close One.
How do I close the tabs?Asus doesn't make the iPad. Is this some other tablet?
Sounds like you have maxed out the browser windows. In the browser app, press the menu or overflow bottom to see if there is an window/tabs options. There you should see a thumbnail image of each tab you have opened and in the corner of each should be a X or minus symbol that you touch to close that tab/window. -
