INSTALL/RE-INSTALL ISSUE. WONT START...

I INSTALED A NEW HARD DRIVE WITHOUT PARTITIONS... I-TUNES SAID "THE FOLDER I-TUNES CANNOT BE FOUND OR CREATED. ITS LOCATION IS IN 'MY MUSIC'".
I TRIED TO FIND AND MOVE IT BUT THAT DOES NOT WORK.
I UNINSTALLED AND REINSTALLED BUT EVEN WITH A NEW INSTALL I GET THE SAME MESSAGE.
I MISS MY MUSIC... AND I AM NOT ANY KIND OF "IT GUY"... I CAN HELP YOU IF YOU NEED AN ARCHITECT THOUGH. SERIOUSLY, HOW DO I SOLVE THIS ISSUE?

Grey system discs are considered replacement parts & only available directly from Apple, although an Apple Store might help with the order. Normally, only the owner of the Mac can order them & the serial number of the Mac must be furnished.
As I said, a retail disc will work only if it was released after the Mac was. You can use the charts at Mac OS X versions (builds) included with Intel-based Macs to determine what is the oldest OS version any model can support. Note that if the customer's Mac is actually a 13" MacBook Pro, it can only be the one identified in the chart as "MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009)" & would require either 10.5.7 or 10.6, depending on when in the product cycle it was made.
Thus, it is very important that you know the exact model of this laptop. The Technical Specifications support pages can help with that, or you may be able to get that & other useful info about it by entering the serial number in the Service and Repair form .
I know very little about bootable Windows discs, but keep in mind that Macs do not use a BIOS-based boot loader (they use EFI instead) & that Apple only supports starting up from Windows installer discs containing one of the versions of Windows mentioned in Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows. In effect, the Boot Camp Assistant app creates the Windows preinstall environment so I don't think there is normally any need for a WinPE CD.

  • Acrobat 10.1.1.33 crashes after a few weeks from install and wont start up without re-install

    We have Adobe CS6 installed at work and every couple of weeks Acrobat just crashes silently and then refuses to load, even when opened via short cut, windows context menu, etc. Repairing the install doesn't fix this issue and instead I have to completely uninstall CS6 and reinstall to get Acrobat to work again for a few more weeks until it repeats. I am not the only one in the office having this issue.
    I had a look into windows application logs and found this entry logged for the exact time acrobat silently crashed:
    Faulting application name: Acrobat.exe, version: 10.1.1.33, time stamp: 0x4e64e9d5
    Faulting module name: Acrobat.dll, version: 10.1.1.33, time stamp: 0x4e64fa0a
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    Fault offset: 0x00020bd8
    Faulting process id: 0x225c
    Faulting application start time: 0x01cf2351bc3ef267
    Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe
    Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.dll
    Report Id: 49b20389-8f45-11e3-b30b-90b11c5f8db5
    The computer was fresh out the box running windows 7 64bit and has nothing other than CS6 installed. While Acrobat wont work at all, Photoshop and other CS6 applications installed work fine.
    Anyone know of a fix?

    Have you tried the updates? AA X is at 10.1.9. At least you have 10.1, that was the minimum required for 64-bit systems. When it fails, was there something else that was installed or updated just before the crash? Was there any error code given when the failure occurred. I see that you got the log entry and that is good, but not very useful to users like us -- only maybe to Adobe staff.
    What where you doing in Acrobat when the failure occurred? Does Distiller still open? Can you print to a PDF? Just trying to home in on what might be the issue.
    If you proceed with a reinstall (since you can't repair), do the following steps: Uninstall, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, remove any left overs of the Acrobat folder, reboot, and reinstall. After the install, do the updates to 10.1.9. I would then suggest backing up the drive or at least the registry and Adobe folder in Program Files (X86). With the latter, you might be able to get things back. At least with the Acrobat folder you can see if it is related to any files there having problems or something in the registry. There are a few files in the system32 (or 64?) folder also.
    You might also try http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/search/index.cfm?cat=support&loc=en_us to see if there are specific Adobe recommendations about your problem. However, specifics are needed and it is hard for me to provide an inquiry based on what you have given, though it may be all you can easily tell us.

  • VS2015 CTP - installed but wont start

    Hi,
    I have installed this (on win10 64bit) and when I first started it, it was last seen saying 'building MEF graph' and then it existed.
    It now just flashes up a brief screen before existing.
    I have reinstalled/repaired but it still follows this sequence.
    Any ideas/help appreciated!
    Thanks
    nick

    Hi nickfarrow,
    Accoridng to your description, I suggest you can try to check if you installed third-party tool/sofeware on your machien. 
    If you installed, I suggest you disable or un-installe them and then check your issue again.
    If no, I suggest you can try to close the Anti-virus software or the firewall on your machine check this issue agin.
    If the above suggestion still could not help you, since
    VS2015 CTP Preview is previews for the next major release of Visual Studio, currently we forums don’t provide support for VS2015 CTP Preview. So the product team would accept the suggestions or feedbacks for the VS2015 now.
    So you can submit the feedback/suggestions to Microsoft Connect feedback portal:http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/CreateFeedback.aspx,
    Microsoft engineers will evaluate them seriously.
    After you submit the feedback, you can post the link here which will be beneficial for other members with the similar issue.
    And I will help you to vote it.

  • Help!!! After failed install computer wont start up

    After an hour or so of the install on my MacBook Pro 2.33Ghz Intel received the following message:
    "Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer. The installer encountered an error that caused installation to fail. Contact software manufacturer for assistance. Click restart and try again."
    Computer will not start up now after hitting power button.
    Thanks for any help.

    Experiencing the same thing here. I got the same error message so I tried verifying disk, which came back with the error "invalid node structure" & "disk needs to be repaired". So I click repair disk, to which I get "disk utility can't repair this disk".
    At this point the hard drive in not mountable (unless I restart with the 10.6 install disk) and when I tried to restore my time machine backup from my portable HD it said there wasn't enough space.
    All this after getting disconnected from customer support without a call back and suddenly being after hours.
    I am not a happy apple person right now.

  • After installing Mountain Lion, my iTunes app wont start, why ???

    After installing Mountain Lion, my iTunes app wont start, why ??? It bounces in the dock, then "Unexpectedly Quirs"

    Let's keep it simple...
    1) Make a new user - the steps are in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1199
    2) Log into that user, open iTunes, agree, etc. - it will probably work
    3) If it does, it tells us that iTunes (the program) is fine but it's encountering something unexpected
    4) Go back to your user, and try to open iTunes while holding option and making a new library - like suggested in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589
    5) Your iTunes will be empty. This is ok. Your files are not touched by this process.
    6) If iTunes doesn't quit when loading an empty library, you could try rebuilding the iTunes Library as Apple documents in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    7) If iTunes does quit, it could be trying to grab something - like photo information to sync to your iPad - and that's where it finds the unexpected data. Maybe try moving the iPod Photo Cache? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1324 should guide you for how to do that.
    If you tell us whether it is library-specific, user-specific, or system-wide (happens in both users), we could maybe give you better advice on what's going on.'
    If the new user has the same behavior, maybe remove the SC Info folder - there are not many system-wide files iTunes touches. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389 covers how to remove that invisible folder.
    iTunes uses /Applications/iTunes.app, /Users/Shared/SC Info, ~/Music/iTunes/ and ~/Library/Preferences/ and a bunch of other files. I don't think focusing on /Applications/iTunes/app or other system-wide files is going to be as effective as knowing whether the issue is system-wide or user-specific.
    I hope this helps and feel free to reply if this is all confusing.

  • Safari wont start after i installed avi player any suggestions?

    safari wont start after i installed a avi player any suggestions?

    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • After i installed updates for my mac mini server, the web services for the server app wont start, it gives an error massage: "Error Reading Settings"

    After i installed updates for my mac mini server, the web services for the server app wont start, it gives an error massage: "Error Reading Settings"
    The system logs reads:
    Mar 29 22:06:25 server servermgrd[82]: servermgr_web:  Error Domain=XSServerFoundationErrorDomain Code=4 "Failed to read settings: Exception:

    To check the local network for some of the common configuration problems, launch Terminal.app and issue the following diagnostic command:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    That'll report some local configuration information and then either no errors detected and no changes required, or it'll point to whatever configuration errors or issues it might detect.  That doesn't catch everything, but it catches the common errors.
    FWIW, 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 are poor choices for the local network, as VPNs are based on IP routing and IP routing gets tangled when the same subnet is used on both ends of the VPN. 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 are near ubiquitous in home networks and coffee shops.

  • HT201413 itunes wont install, runtime error R6034 also 'apple mobile device' wont start! help!

    itunes wont install, runtime error R6034 also 'apple mobile device' wont start! help!

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:

    Do you know what version it was you installed?
    I would start with a clean uninstall of that Desktop Manager software (that is what you installed?). See this link for instructions:
    http://www.blackberryforums.com/rim-software/25937-how-perform-clean-uninstall-reinstall-blackberry-...
    Then, I would recommend downloading and installing Desktop Manager verions 4.6 from here:
    https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
    Persoanlly, I would recommend the version you find there withOUT the Media Manager software.

    Some time ago firefox updated, after update it crashed on startup when checking add on compatibility. After this crash it never started again.
    I uninstalled and re installed and it started fine after install, but when i close it and try to open again it doesn't start. The process is there and stuck at 13 cpu usage with memory usage around 15k.
    Every time it starts after the initial install it says "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because firefox is being used by another application" i have no idea what may be using it, microsoft security essentials is the closest thing to anti vir installed.
