IMac - will my raid set be recognized after a fresh install?
I own an iMac late 2012 and I installed an external raid with two Lacie thunderbolt disks. Will my raid be recognized after a fresh install of mavericks?
Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42),
Grafica NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M 512 MB
Memoria 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Processore 2,9 GHz Intel Core i5
Is this a RAID 0 (mirror) or RAID 1 (striped) setup?
While I am by no means a RAID expert, it seems to me that if you have a software RAID of two external HDs (i.e. set up via Disk Utility or other software), then a fresh (clean) install of OS X would no longer recognize the RAID.
Doing a clean install would wipe OS X's knowledge of the software RAID and you would have to set it up again. You can certainly set up the software RAID again, but I suspect that would re-initialize the RAID setup on the hard drives and probably wipe previous data. There IS a Rebuild option, but I have no idea if that would work in a case where you freshly install OS X.
On the other hand, I believe that upgrading OS X (rather than freshly installing the operating system) would preserve the software RAID setup.
Regardless of how you upgrade or reinstall OS X, back up your data first.

IWork is not working on Yosemite after a fresh install from the disk
Hi,
I've freshly install yosemite on my computer.
I first reinstalled my computer with original Snow Leopard and then made the upgrade to Yosemite.
After that I used the Migration Assistant to transfert my old applications.
Most of them are now running perfectly but I'm still facing issues with iWork.
It refuses to launch with a message error saying that "Pages" for example is not working with this version of Mac OS and I should make al available update.
There are indeed updates available from the App store but I can't download them because it is not available for my apple ID because someone else bought it or I cancelled the buying ?!
It's strange because I bought it with my Macbook Pro in 2010 and even after a fresh install from the disk, the message is still the same...
Any idea how to unlock these updates?Actually this doesn't explain everything.
I finally reinstalled Snow Leopard / iWork 09' and then upgraded to Yosemite and everything is working like a charm.
This issue has something to do with the use of the "Application migration tool" from Mac Os X Yosemite to collect old applications to the new os from another installation...
I solved my issue this way because I don't have very valuable applications that I want to transfert but for other users, this could be a real issue...
Thanks a lot for your answer -
No Audio from Internal Speakers after a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro
T400S - after a fresh install of Windows 7, theres no audio from the Internal speakers. When I plug an external speakers there's audio. I also install the audio drivers from the Lenovo site. Thanks
Does your sound bar in the Sound Windows go up and down when you play music?

My iMac will not wake up from sleep after upgrading to OS X Mavericks
After upgrading to OS X, my iMac will not wake up from sleep. Each time I have to do a hard restart. Is there a fix for this problem?
Hi,
I have just had the same problem with my iMac and after upgrading to Mavericks my iMac would not wake without pressing the power off button and re-booting.
Anyway, I have since done a complete new install on my iMac and have gone 5 days without an issue with the iMac not waking. It was a bit of a pain to do but my own view so far is that the problem is linked to the upgrading of the OS instead of a clean install.
My iMac now flies with a new OS installed instead of an upgrade. -
IMac will not start up - blue screen after months of Leopard use
I have an iMac G5 that will not start up. It hangs at the blue screen, but does not have the issue with the ApplicationEnhancer.bundle file. It will start up in safe mode.
This iMac will not start from a bootable external drive (the external drive can be used as a start up disk successfully with my iBook G4). The iMac's internal drive can be used as a start up disk for the iBook (via the target mode) and does not appear to have any problems. Does this seem like it is a hardware issue with the iMac? The iMac also hangs at the blue screen if I attempt to start up with the Leopard install disk after using the startup disk preference pane in safe start mode.
I have repaired permissions, verified the disk, etc., using the disk utility. I have cleared caches, preferences, and so on, using Mac HelpMate.It may be that some of your login items might be incompatible with the mac. Also, try booting up from the install disk and repair your disk.

Original 10.4 disks will no longer work on MacPro after a Leopard install
I have an Intel MacPro that shipped with 10.4. I installed 10.5 on the machine. I have a need for either a 10.4 partition or to revert back to 10.4 entirely. When I attempt to install 10.4 from the original grey disks that came with the machine I get an error that this version of Mac OS X can't be installed on this machine. Same problem with an older Intel iMac. Neither recognizes their original disks, the MacPro will boot from its original disk, but won't install, the iMac does not even recognize its original disks. Did 10.5 do something funny to the firmware? If so (or even if not) is there a way to get these machines to "accept" the software they were born with or am in in Leopard-land forever with these two machines?
Some of the ideas here appear to require a pre-made backup on an
external disk drive such as a clone; of the previous system. Good
advice going into an upgrade, even then, it may not work. But should.
Mac OS X 10.5 Help: Reverting to a previous OS X version
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/15216.html
Of course, this path is worthless; as I have read dozens of topics on
the subject and none of them appear valid in your instanc!!
Is there any chance your Mac OS X 10.5 install disc
is really only an upgrade? They aren't a full service.
{Can you Archive and Install using the 10.4 disc, but not have it booted
up in the suspect computer? - It may revert that way. Desperate maybe.}
Since their is a percentage chance of something wrong with the computer
(but maybe not) you could consider the fee to discuss the issue with an
AppleCare tech, since that is still available after it has expired. If an issue
is not resolved in a discussion and suggested cure from them, ask what
if any recourse you have; if a call-back and other followups are free, etc.
This is an odd issue. Since I've been accustomed to making backup clones
that can boot my computers from externally enclosed hard disk drive units,
that is a path I try to be ready for; manual clones and not a Time machine
or other semi-automatic device. (Though the free-running clone utilities can
backup to a schedule, too; & offer a good full drive backup to a lite-backup.)
Sorry that I do not have a workable answer to the issue of the retail disc
not being seen by the computer as a boot volume; so complicating the
idea and need for you to revert from OS X 10.5 to the original OS X 10.4.
If things get rough for me, I have backup computers; living in a small town, in
a low-population semi-remote location does that. And backup generator, too.
{Is there a way to be able to use Leopard for your purposes, in at least one
Mac? Did you upgrade over Tiger in both? Sometimes, a full new install is
a best way to upgrade, wipe everything - but have that clone.}
Best wishes & regards...
Good luck & happy computing!

Following an Apple Support Team member's advice, I retrieved as many files as I could and erased and repaired the HD before completing a fresh install from a bootable USB. Once I restored all of my software I set it backing up to Time Machine over night only to find that it had crashed and restarted over night before that had completed. I attach the crash report below:

Light will not turn off on 4S after I oS7 install
My phone has gone a bit haywire after the iOS7 install. Last night about 2:00 am, my phone buzzed to tell me it was fully charged and when I unplugged the charger, the flashlight stayed on and continues to stay on, even with the phone completely turned off. Any ideas?
ThanksI have seen some updates that correct problems with the status of some HP printers. If this applies to your problem you should find an update to correct it. On this page select your operating system and select Next. You can review all of the updates for your printer and see if you think any might resolve the issue.

Safest way to go after a fresh install of iTunes and Windows
I had to wipe my PC, and my XML file got corrupted and the itl file lost. I went to sync just before I wiped it and got, the message about being able to sync to one library at a time.
As I'm starting from zero again will the iPod recognise the new library as "fresh" and I'll have to wipe the iPod of all the tracks on it?. Which isn't really a problem, as they're all backed up on my external HD.
Or can I put all my music back into iTunes with ratings, and hope the iPod accepts the fresh install?
Which is the best way to go? Empty iTunes and wipe the iPod and start from scratch? Or try and hope it recognises the new install?These links will give you several methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are many various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search for them if the links below leave you wanting…
Don King Resurrected: Deleted files from hard drive (free user steps – music recovery only)
MacMuse: Computer Crashed (free user steps – music recovery only)
Copying music from iPod to computer (a primer on various methods and software)
Copying Songs from Your iPod to a Mac or PC (resource for 3rd party software)
iPodRip Software (Free trial: Mac & Windows)

YamiPod Software (Free: Mac & Windows)
PodPlus Software (Windows)
TuneJack Software (Windows)
XPlay (Windows software For Music Recovery &/or Cross-Platform Functionality)
XPlay Photo Browser (For recovering Photos)
After recovering your Library, strongly consider developing a thorough and frequent backup strategy for just this type of situation (and many other potential disasters).
You need at least two full sets of your music, not including what is on the iPod:
a) One full set on the PC within iTunes (on internal HD or ExHD)
b) One full set on an separate external backup medium (CD/DVD/ExHD/other)
c) One (full or partial) set on the iPod
Music files on just the iPod and only one other medium is not considered having any backup.
If you cannot store your complete music files on the computer’s internal HD, then create and maintain at least two external sets (any multiple combinations of ExHDs, DVDs, CDs).
Backup both the music files and the Library database file (iTunes Library.itl). What are the iTunes Library files?
Here is a post on developing a thorough Backup Strategy
Best of Luck -

Towards the end of 2013 Mountain Lion had been running very sluggishly, and I was getting the spinning beachball of death all the time, so I decided to do a fresh install of Mavericks. I wiped my whole HD using disk utility and installed Mavericks from a flash drive.
I then installed Microsoft Office 2011 from the original DVD and set up Mac Mail to work with my Gmail account etc. All very standard. I also installed X-Code and various other things related to my work, but nothing crazy. My HD is only half-full (I have 141 GB of free space).
Despite this, everything is running really sluggishly (especially when MS Office programs are open) and I have to watch the beachball of death spin for about 10 seconds every minute.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Here is the Etrecheck output:

2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
Here's a summary of what you need to do: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait about a minute. Then paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter
exec sh
and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for your password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator rights.
The test may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. There wiil be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress until it's done. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
8. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." That's because the forum software falsely identifies something in the post as a violation of the terms of use. If that happens, please post the results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Retrieving old sites after a fresh install
Hi. I made a couple of web sites on iWeb 08 and my hard drive got hosed and i had to do a complete re-install, but have a backup of my ~/home and ~/Library.... What do i have to copy over from my back up to get iWeb to see my sites when i launch the application? I thought i had it all copied over but when i launch iWeb, there is no sign of my old sites and pages. I am guessing that some things are in ~/home/Library and maybe some in ~/Library Application Support and some in ~/Sites....
further wrinkle, i was using 10.4 when i made the sites. I am now running 10.5.2 (no point in installing an out of date OS if you are forced to do a fresh install).How odd. Despite backup all of ~/Library and having a ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain file double clicking it gets me nothing.
so... looking back to an older (and sadly somewhat out of date) i found a Domain.sites2 file and stuck that in ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb
and that works....
Somehow my Domain.sites got emptied.
I did indeed copy the right thing since i remembered that iWeb put the files in a non-obvious place yet somehow the Domain.sites i backed up was an empty one. I must have done something wrong before the back up, i know that i did update to iWeb '08 after making that site so maybe that blew away my old Domain.sites file or something... i dunno.
Well ... i guess it i did get version of this site back. I have to say i am not fond of how iWeb handles this all, this would be the second time i lost some work in iWeb due to a lack of understanding of how it works and where it stores things. It would be nice if us iWork, .mac folks could have a more robust and clear way of backing up, storing, retrieving, recreating our web sites. Considering that i am using .mac to host my site, and that i am using iWeb to make the site, you would think having all the code there you could hit a button to slurp the site back down to iWeb and have the web site itself serve as a back up. Also ... why can't it reconstruct based on the ~/Site folder?
Well i am back in biz... i will check and back up more carefully next time. -
How to get back installed apps after a fresh install?
I would like to start a new installation, format Macintosh HD and reinstalling Snow Leopard. From that point carry on with Lion, Mountain Lion and, eventually but not sure, Mavericks. After the new install could be problems retriving all intalled apps from Applestore?
ThanksMy imac started with Snow Leopard, then after Lion and Mountain Lion i accepted the upgrade to Mavericks and i didn't appreciate the new interface and usage of some apps, i.e. iMovie. Meanwhile, even before Mavericks, os was slowing down, but even if a bit annoying and unusual still accetable. Consider that i have installed a bunch of apps regularly purchased, mainly fom Applestore. No fancy gadgets. So, as i didn't like that much Mavericks decided to restore from Time Machine. Possibly was a mistake and now i have an enviroment i feel i can't manage. Today, for instance iDvd shut down in an unaspected way three times and then i decided to reinstall. Agree Mac is not Win and, in fact, never had such a problem, but now i need, say for my interior peace, to start from a clean situation. That's why my question, what about my actally installed apps?
Thanks -
So, I've got several thousand photos, and a decent amount of videos of my daughter, along with a lot of stuff for work stored on my Time Capsule, and now I can't access any of it. I did a fresh install of Mavericks on my MacBook Pro last week sometime, and haven't been able to figure out how to get my files back. Please Help!!! My daughter is 2 and a half, and every picture/video I have of her is locked on this thing. I was planning on making some photo/video projects fo my wife for Christmas, and now I'm definitely not going to be able to pull it off. Her birthday is at the end of January, though, so if I could have it by then, that would rule!
Basically, the bar on the right of the screen has some gray dates, which I can access (all backups after the Mavericks install), and purple dates that go all the way back to March (when I originally purchased and began using the TC) which deny me access/viewing. It's possible that I created a slightly different user name when I reset my MacBook, which I guess is most likely the cause, but I have no idea what to do now to correct it. Thanks for taking the time!Mavericks does really nasty stuff..
Try manually mounting the sparsebundle and extract the files you want.
Yet another Pondini reference. http://pondini.org/TM/15.html
We have avoided Mavericks you see knowing that it would cause these kinds of issues..
You never ever load a new OS without doing a disk image beforehand.. TM is not reliable enough or trustworthy to be depended on.
If none of the above work..
I would get a USB drive on the computer and install Mountain Lion or whatever OS you had before you unfortunately upgraded to Mavericks.. Then use TM from that decent installation but mount the sparsebundle and choose the backup from a date well before mavericks was installed.
Once you have extracted the files.. or even done a full restore you might be able to extract the files you want. -
Can't start X, libXaw.so.8 missing after a fresh install of Arch/xorg
Hello,
i just did a fresh Install of Arch and also installed the xorg Package plus the fitting driver for my GFX card.
did the usual stuff, configured x11 and now when i try to run x, following error pops up:
xterm: error while loading shared libraries: libXaw.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or direcotry
libXaw is installed, also 100% sure the right drivers for my card are installed (nvidia for a GF8400M)
Any help on this?i had the same issue; after conky crashed X on me i was getting the above error whenever i tried to start xterm. i reinstalled libxaw, xorg, xterm, all to no avail; finally, desperately i tried:
sudo cp libXaw.so.7 libXaw.so.8
and that fixed it; i know, terrible right? i haven't noticed any negative side effects yet (it's been two weeks or so); i can simply remove libXaw.so.8 to reverse what i did (and re-break xterm), but what's the actual way to fix this? -
I have Reader running on my new iMac OS X 10.9.4. Used it to print a document in gray scale .. which it did .. and then I unchecked that box. All subsequent attempts to print in colour result in black only .. and it has affected all other colour printing attempts from other apps. Tried shutting down, re-starting. .. checked that printer, HP6310 aio will copy in colour. Any bright ideas about how to fix this situation?
