I partitioned the harddrive before reinstalled it, and my system CRUSHED!

I partitioned the harddrive before reinstalled it:
OS X 10G
So i installed my system into this dirve, and before i install it, the system asked me to customize the installation, so i selected those apps that i want, and it says i have 688MB left in the disk.
So i proceed, but it installed half way and stops, and says that there's not enough space to install the OS, and at this point, i can't restart, can't shut down, but can go into sleep mode.
How can i resolve it?!
Please help me!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE!!PLEASE!!!!!! Kneeling down!!!

+and it says i have 688MB left in the disk...+
OS X needs more free space than this to operate...

Hold the power button down for about 10 sec. and your book should shut down. Then restart holding 'C' and try to install again. Btw, why are you partitioning your disc? If it's for Windows, Bootcamp will do this from a single partition.

    Things have really changed.  I can't understand how Apple could release the Lion OS as buggy as it is ?  It's like reliving the nightmare of my PC days and the Microsoft crap !  Do I have to wipe the hardrive before reinstalling Snow Leopard ?  The amazing thing is that when I installed Snow Leopard not a hitch, ever !    My trust in Apple is gone and believe me I will think twice before doing anymore OS upgrades, **** I can go back to the PC for a lot less money.

  • Partitioning the Harddrive for a scratch disk for CS1 & CS2

    Hello all...
    I need to see if there is a way to partition the harddrive on the work macs for the use of a scratch disk. We have a dual 2.0 G5 and a Quad.
    The only thing is the fact that there are tons of materials on these macs as we are a advertising agency and are in the process of migrating all workable files to a new mac server that was ordered this week.
    Can this be done without wiping the HD first?
    Our apps mainly CS1 on some machines and CS2 on the Quad seem to run a tad bit slow. Could this be to not having a scratch disk for these adobe programs.
    Or should we wait until the server has arrived and then just reformat the machines at that time?
    Please help guys.

    Never partition the boot drive. Even if it is used for scratch (and even if you set another drive for primary scratch the boot drive will still be used some). Keep your boot drive free of everything else except the system and applications.
    Order some RAM, order a 2nd drive for each system. And a dedicated scratch disk - meaning you would need a 2 or 4-channel SATA host adapter for PCI-X.
    You might want to use WD's 10K 150GB Raptor for boot drive (and yes, it works just fine on the DC/Quad G5s). The 10K 74GB Raptor makes a nice disk also and could also be used for scratch disks in a RAID. Use your original OEM drive just for local data.

    The above article and benchmark test utility can help determine what to expect.
    I would speculate that you need a minimum of 4-6GB RAM, and 8-10GB of RAM might be in order; along with a 2-4-8 drive RAID as well.

  • I need to update my operating system from 10.5.8 to 10.6, I believe its the one before snow leopard and is just called leopard.

    i need to update my operating system from 10.5.8 to 10.6 on my mac mini, I believe its the one before snow leopard and is just called leopard.

    You seem to have your OS's confused.   Your profile says 10.6 but you are asking to update from 10.5.8.
    10.5.8 is Leopard.   It is also the highest level of Leopard you can achieve.
    10.6.(x) is Snow Leopard.   And 10.6.8 is the highest level you can achieve.
    If you have 10.6 then all you will need to do is download and apply the combo updater.
    If you have 10.5.8, then you will need to review the machine ... Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -Read the Technical Specifications
    Subject the machine will take it, you will then need to buy Snow Leopard from your National on-line Apple store.
    Before you start upgrading, back up your files.   If you are unsure how best to do this, the following link is hugely informative.   Most commonly used backup methods: Apple Support Communities
    Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard, your upgrade will take you to 10.6.3 and you then will need to apply the Combo updater.  Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    and follow with software updates to pick up the most recent security and iTunes updates.
    This will give you the best and highest level includine the App Store.
    Good luck.

  • I have an external hard drive from my time capsule that stopped working on me. I am attempting to access the data with a hard drive reader on my MAC. I am able to see the drive in disk utility and under system info USB. But I am unable to access the data.

    I have an external hard drive from my time capsule that stopped working on me. I am attempting to access the data with a hard drive reader on my MAC. I am able to see the drive in disk utility and under system info USB. But I am unable to access the data and it does not show on the desktop when connected.

    Ok if disk utility was able to verify the drive I doubt there is any problem.. are you trying to open a TM backup??
    You need to mount the sparsebundle then check the actual info inside the bundle.
    Don't use disk warrior.. if the disk has verified then unless you deliberately deleted files there is nothing that is going to do.
    Pondini has a lot of stuff about getting access to the sparsebundle.
    http://pondini.org/TM/17.html
    But if you have copied info to the TC that is now gone.. and the disk is ok.. I am not sure.. the TC will not have deleted the files itself.

  • As step in Task Sequence : Deleting all existing partitions on harddrive before partitioning, is it possible? Thoughts appreciated

    Everyone,
    I have just received a load of 100+ computers off corporate lease for the school district I manage, and while imaging them in SCCM, i've noticed that of those 100 computers about 7 or 8 have failed during the task sequence.  Just on a guess, I tried
    booting up off a windows 7 disk and physically deleting all partitions and THEN running the task sequence it fixes the issue and the task sequence jumps off/completes without any problems (which there's only been one main partition and one system reserve partition).
    My question to you all, I want ALL computers that run my task sequences to completely wipe ALL partitions...and then go forward with the standard partitioning step that's in the task sequence (Step name Partition Disk 0 - BIOS, where it sets up a 350mb system
    reserve and then a 100% remaining space NTFS windows Primary partition)
    Can someone point me in the right direction?  I feel this is a simple process to add to my task sequence, but I wanted to confirm with some of you that might can ease my anxiety a bit first. 
    Thanks so much!

    as above, you could even use a prestart command to achieve this before displaying the task sequence however i'd be VERY careful about doing so, as you could end up wiping out a whole estate of computers without intending to if you deploy it to the wrong
    collection or wrong query, far better to keep the logic in the task sequence as a scripted diskpart step (or two)
    you can download a diskpart script and view the associated step in the
    following task sequence

  • The harddrive makes weird sound and is dead!

    Hi
    I bought this fancy car stereo with a aux input so I could listen to my iPod in the car. Whoever had the car before me had a magnet attached to the dashboard, for holding onto her cellphone. Well I looked at my iPod, I saw a metal cover and figured it would be perfect to have it on that magnet. Well, 2-3 trips later my iPod won't play anymore and when I try to turn it on it makes this weird sound as if something is scratcing in it, internally. Then that white screen comes up with a sad iPod-smilie. When I plug it to the computer it just keeps trying to start up, repeatedly.
    Have I destroyed my baby?
    This *****.

    yup. its dead. this just happened to mine, oh, a couple weeks ago. its probably not due to the magnet, though. when i took mine in they said it was most likely because of some kind of physical trauma the ipod had been through, sudden or over time, such as dropping or just being moved around a lot. if your ipod is under warranty, though, you shouldnt have any trouble getting a good-as-new replacement at the store. when i went there was a pretty long wait, but once i got there it proceeded very quickly. i must say, i expected some kind of long ordeal, but all that happened was i showed him the noise it was making and the sad ipod icon, he said "ok", did something on his computer real quick, and went into the back and got me a replacement. if your ipod isnt under warranty anymore i suggest reading whatever information you have on ipod support(i dont know if you saved the little booklets in the box or not, i did). i read it all before i went in, and most of it is just protecting themselves in case they treat you like crap(which may have been the reason i expected them to), so i wouldnt get your hopes up too much if your ipod is no longer in warranty.
    good luck

  • HT1923 i had to reinstall iTunes to my laptop due to a virus and hardware issue with the harddrive. since reinstalling it i can no longer find any of my purchased songs or movies. how do i recover all of the content in my account?

    can anyone help me through this? i have had this happen a few times but my iTunes list usually comes back just fine and i have all of the content restored.

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Help!!! I force inserted a 9.5mm SSD into the harddrive slot of T430 and can't take it out.

    Help!!!
    Just got my new T430 and did some hardwar upgrade.
    Bought an Intel 520 Series 180G SSD. Thougth it was 7mm. (But later found out 520 series come in two sizes 7 and 9.5mm)
    I took out the original HDD (with rubber rails) and forced inserted the SSD into the empty harddrive slot.
    Now it's really securely stuck in the slot  and I can't think of a way to get it out. 
    Called customer service, they say it's not their original configuration so not under warranty. they suggest I go to a local computer shop. 
    Can someone give me some suggestions about what I should do ??  
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You can often get access to the drive by removing the palmrest, but T430 has a 1-piece palmrest-keyboard bezel and they are harder to get off. DON'T MAKE IT WORSE. If you are not sure what you are doing, take it to a dealer. You might feel stupid asking for that kind of help, but you will REALLY feel stupid if you break your new, expensive machine.

  • I received pictures in a dozen emails and saved each picture into one file in .pages.  I did not import the photos before doing this and now iPhoto won't recognize the pictures because they are in a .pages file.  How do I get the pics to iPhoto?

    I received a dozen pictures in a few emails and I saved them all into one file in pages.  I just copied and pasted.  I do not have the originals any longer.  Iphoto will not permit me to import the pictures as it does not recognize a .pages file, nor can I simply click and drag from the pages document to iphoto nor from pages to the desktop to iphoto.  How can I save each picture I guess back into a jpeg and then import them into iphoto or have i lost them to a pages document forever?  This is urgent as I need the pictures made into a book on iphoto for work by Friday!!!  Please advise!  Thank you.

    Greetings,
    Locate the Pages document wherever it's located on your computer and click once on it to highlight it.
    Go to File > Duplicate to make a backup copy of the file.
    Click once again on the file to highlight it.
    Go to File >  Get Info
    In the "Name & Extension" category remove the ".pages" extension and put in ".zip".
    Close the info window and double-click the now renamed pages file (zip file now).It will decompress into a folder which contains all the base components including all the images you added.  These can be dragged onto the iPhoto icon to import them.
    Hope that helps.
