Installation problem on Power PC G3, 450MHz OS 9.2 trying to install OS10.4

When I try to install, I get the dialog box: Mac OSX cannot be installed on this computer. Please consult the documentation for the list of supported computers. From what I can tell, I should be able to install on this computer; it appears on the list. In the System's Profile it says: FireWire 2.8.6: no device on this bus. Is that the problem? Can I do something to update the computer so it will accept the OSX? If I have to do a clean install, could someone please tell me how to do it?
Thank you in advance.
iMac Power PC G3 450MHz   Mac OS 9.2.x   trying to update daughter's computer

Thanks for the info. It looks like that is the answer to the problem but it'll be a while before I can do the Firmware update I think. The computer I'm trying to update isn't on line yet (it's been moved from one room that was wired to one that isn't, so now I have to get an Airport card and adaptor for it - which is obsolete, I've got to check out eBay for it. It just keeps getting more fun! Kind of like "If you give a mouse a cookie..." Although, I suppose I could download it on the the main computer and then burn it to a disc and then install it on the other iMac. New question: will that work?
At this point, it appears your answer is helpful and will solve the problem. Thanks!

    I need your help for troubleshooting an installation problem on a Win8 (x64) client. There is already JavaJRE installed, but we wanted to install some other versions, too. But it didn't work. So we tried to unistall to curently version. This was running badly. Now there entry is removed from windows software, but the software is still on the system. Always if we try to install any java, we get a failure message with no error discription. So we looked for some installation logs, but I can't find the problem. Can you have a look? What can I do?

  • 9iAS installation problem--not the same user

    I had once interrupted my 9iAS installation, when I start installation again, OUI reports lack of query component. I tried to install it in a new oracle home path, aborted the installation, and copy the inventory folder to the original oracle home path. Then I install oracle in the original oracle home again, OUI gives error message of "All oracle9iAS in one host must be installed by the same user". How can I bypass this message and install 9iAS?

    I just had that too. I deleted all Oracle installed directories (app server install directory and Program Files\Oracle) then deleted the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE and that problem goes away....

  • ITunes + QuickTime installation Problem

    I've got an iPod Nano as a present but I'm unable to download iTunes to play it on because of a problem with Quicktime.
    When I try to download iTunes + Quicktime the following error comes up:
    Could not open key:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\QuickTimePlayer.Lib.QuickTimePlayerApp/CSLID Verify that you have sufficient access to that Key or contact your support personnel
    I've tried uninstalling QuickTime complety but it doesn't work.
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Cheers!

    I had also had a problem with iTunes and discovered that Quicktime may be the culprit. iTunes appears to successfully install but, when I launch it, I get this message, “ iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.”
    I have tried the Solutions to Common Installation and Launch Errors and have not solved the problem.
    O I tried to completely remove iTunes and QuickTime and reinstall (While during that I did not find a QuicktimeVR file to delete). That did not work.
    O I tried to empty my Temp directory but, I could not delete all the files. Same problem occurred when I reinstalled iTunes.
    O I tried to install QuickTime without iTunes and it would not install. I got a message from QuickTime for Windows saying, “A newer version of QuickTime is already installed. This installation cannot proceed while the newer version of QuickTime is installed.”
    O When I try to launch QuickTime from the program list, Windows cannot locate the QuickTimePlayer.exe.
    O When I try to uninstall QuickTime, I get the following message, “The following file does not exist or is not a valid uninstallation log file.

  • Troubleshoot installation problems in Photoshop Lightroom on Windows Vista

    This document can help you to resolve system errors that occur while you use Adobe Photoshop Lightroom on Windows Vista. System errors can manifest in many different ways, including (but not limited to) the following:
    A blank or flickering dialog box
    A frozen cursor or screen
    A blue screen
    An unexpected restart
    An error message such as:
    "Setup is unable to load the installation script file."
    "Unable to create a directory under C:\Windows\System. Please check write-access to the directory."
    "Uninstalling: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."
    Note: If you attempt to install Photoshop Lightroom to a drive that doesn't have the minimum required space available, the installation will fail. You must then completely reinstall to another location that has sufficient free space.
    Many different factors can cause system errors, including conflicts among device drivers, applications, operating system settings, hardware, and corrupt elements in specific files. Although a system error may occur only when you work with Photoshop Lightroom, Photoshop Lightroom may not necessarily be the cause; it may be the only application that uses enough memory or processor cycles to expose the problem.
    To benefit most from this document, perform the tasks in order. Keep track of the tasks that you perform and the results of each, including errors and other problems. Adobe Technical Support can use this information to better assist you if you need to call.
    You must be logged on as an administrator to perform some of the procedures in this document.
    Important: Some of the procedures in this document may initiate a User Access Control dialog that asks for your permission to continue. Read the details in the dialog to determine if you want to continue. If you choose to cancel the dialog, then you will not be able to continue with that troubleshooting step.
    The steps in this document that refer to the Control Panel are in reference to the Classic view. For information on switching the Control Panel to the Classic view and many other common OS procedures, see Common Microsoft Windows Vista procedures (TechNote kb401275)
    Some of these procedures require you to locate hidden files and hidden folders. Some procedures require you to locate files by their full file names, which include extensions (for example, example_filename.ini). By default, Windows Explorer doesn't show hidden files, hidden folders, and file name extensions that it recognizes.
    To show hidden files, hidden folders, and all file name extensions in Windows Explorer:
    In Windows Explorer, choose Organize > Folder And Search Options.
    Click the View tab in the Folder Options dialog box.
    In Advanced Settings, select Show Hidden Files And Folders.
    Deselect Hide Extensions For Known File Types.
    Click OK.
    Note: The procedures in this document are based on the default interface of Windows Vista. If the interface is customized, some procedures may vary. For example, a commonly encountered difference is the navigation to Control Panel from the Start menu: You may navigate Start > Settings > Control Panel instead of Start > Control Panel. Additionally, the procedures in this document assume you are using the Classic View of the Control Panel: To view the Control Panel in the Classic View, click Switch To Classic View on the Control Panel navigation bar on the left side of the window.
    Beginning troubleshooting
    The tasks in this section can help you resolve the most common system errors. Before performing any of these tasks, back up all personal files (for example, Photoshop Lightroom files you created). Always restart the computer after a system error occurs to refresh system memory. Continuing to work without restarting the computer may compound the problem.
    1.Make sure that the system meets the minimum requirements for PhotoshopLightroom.
    Photoshop Lightroom may not run correctly on a system that doesn't meet the following requirements:
    Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
    Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7
    768 MB of RAM (1 GB recommended)
    1 GB of available hard-disk space
    CD-ROM drive
    In addition to these requirements, a video card that supports 24-bit (16 million) or more colors, and a resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher, is recommended.
    * Photoshop Lightroom 1.0 will install and run on Windows Vista but Adobe cannot guarantee the quality of the software experience until Adobe fully certifies Photoshop Lightroom for use on Windows Vista.
    To check basic system information, such as processor speed and how much RAM is installed, choose Start > Control Panel > System.
    2. Delete previously installed application files, especially if you had the public beta version of Photoshop Lightroom installed.
    To delete files from a previous Adobe Photoshop Lightroom installation attempt:
    Choose Start > Control Panels > Add or Remove Programs.
    Select Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and choose to remove it.
    Close the Add Or Remove Programs window and the Control Panel.
    Open Windows Explorer.
    If the Lightroom.exe file is still in the Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder, delete it.
    If the Lightroom Preferences.agprefs file is still in the Documents and Settings/[username]/Application Data/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences folder, delete it.
    Empty the Recycle Bin.
    Try to reinstall. If you cannot, continue with the next two sections in this step:
    Move all the folders under the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder into a new folder on the desktop; name the folder Lightroom Presets. These are the presets that were installed with the application and that you created.
    Move all the folders under the Users/[username]/Pictures/Lightroom/Lightroom Previews.lrdata folder into a new folder on the desktop; name the folder Lightroom Previews. If you have a large number of images, you can move this folder back to its original location before you open Photoshop Lightroom, once it's installed. Or you can delete this folders to re-create it when Photoshop Lightroom opens. If there are further problems with Photoshop Lightroom after it's installed, it might be due to corruption in the previews, in which case you need to delete this folder and re-create it.
    Try to reinstall.Important: Do not delete the Lightroom Database.lrdb file!
    If there are further problems with Photoshop Lightroom after it's installed, these issues may be due to corruption in the preset files you created, in which case you need to remove them and re-create them, or test each preset individually.
    Note: If you can reinstall, and if this is not the first time you opened Photoshop Lightroom, then Photoshop Lightroom will look for a library database file. If it does not find a library in the expected location, it will prompt you to create a new library, locate the library, or exit. Exit will close the dialog box, and Photoshop Lightroom will not open. Although you can tell Photoshop Lightroom to locate your library, it's best to put it back in the default location and then open the application.
    If you can reinstall, close Photoshop Lightroom and then copy any presets you created from the Lightroom presets on the desktop back into the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder.
    If you cannot reinstall, then move the Lightroom Database.lrdb file from the Users/[username]/Pictures/Lightroom folder into a new folder called Lightroom Database File and save this file on the desktop. This is your database, if you previously had Photoshop Lightroom installed.
    Reinstall Photoshop Lightroom. If you cannot reinstall, continue with the next task in this document.
    3. Log in as Administrator before installingPhotoshopLightroom.
    In Windows Vista, you must be logged in with local (that is, machine) Administrator rights to install Photoshop Lightroom. If you don't have administrator rights, contact your system administrator for assistance.
    4. Check the CD and CD-ROM drive.
    Dust or dirt on a CD can interfere with an installation and prevent the CD-ROM drive from recognizing the CD. Examine the Photoshop Lightroom CD for dirt, dust, or fingerprints. Gently wipe the bottom of the CD from the center outward with a soft, lint-free cloth.
    Verify that the CD-ROM drive can read other CDs. If it can't, examine the CD caddy or loading tray for dirt, and clean it with a lint-free cloth. If it still can't read other CDs, contact the CD-ROM drive manufacturer or the computer manufacturer.
    5. Install current Windows service packs and other updates.
    Updates to the Windows operating system improve its performance and compatibility with applications. You can obtain Windows service packs and other updates from the Microsoft website at www.windowsupdate.com. For assistance installing service packs and other updates, contact Microsoft technical support.
    Important: Before you install a system update, check the system requirements for Photoshop Lightroom (and any third-party software or hardware you may use with Photoshop Lightroom ) to ensure compatibility. If the update isn't listed, then contact Adobe or the manufacturer of your third-party software or hardware.
    6. InstallPhotoshopLightroomfrom the desktop and use the default installation folder.
    Some system components such as device drivers and virus protection utilities can conflict with the Photoshop Lightroom installer and result in an incomplete or failed installation, or they can cause problems when you install to a folder or when you use a path to the default installation folder that contains a special character, such as #. To prevent these conflicts, install Photoshop Lightroom from the desktop, and use the default folder name and path.
    If Photoshop Lightroom autoplay displays, click Cancel when you are requested to Select the Language.
    Copy the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder from the Photoshop Lightroom CD-ROM to the desktop.
    Open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder on the desktop.
    Double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.msi file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    7.Re-create thePhotoshopLightroompreferences file.
    Re-create the Photoshop Lightroom preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause:
    Quit Photoshop Lightroom.
    Rename the Lightroom Preferences.agprefs file (for example, to Lightroom Preferences.old) in the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences folder.
    Start Photoshop Lightroom. Photoshop Lightroom creates a new preferences file.
    If the problem continues, the preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, delete the new preferences file and restore the original name of the previous preferences file.
    8.Install and run Photoshop Lightroom while no other applications are running.
    Some applications may interfere with installing or running Photoshop Lightroom. Virus protection programs are meant to stop viruses from installing on your computer. Before installing or starting Photoshop Lightroom, disable other applications, including virus protection programs and startup items (items that start automatically with Windows).
    To disable startup items and non Microsoft services:
    Quit all applications.
    Choose Start, type msconfig in the Search text box, and press Enter.
    Write down all unselected items under the Startup and Services tabs.
    Click the General tab, and choose Selective Startup.
    Click the Startup tab and select Disable All.
    Click the Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services.
    Select Disable All then re-select FLEXnet Licensing Service. If you are unsure whether an item is essential, then leave it deselected (disabled).
    Click Apply, and restart Windows for the changes to take effect.
    Note: Upon restart, you'll be notified that the System Configuration utility has made changes to the way that Windows starts up. Click OK. When the System Configuration utility appears, click Cancel.
    Right-click icons in the Notification Area and close or disable any startup items that are still active.
    9. Install Photoshop Lightroom to a different hard disk after disabling startup items and installing from the hard disk.
    Hard disk problems can prevent Photoshop Lightroom from installing correctly. By installing Photoshop Lightroom to a different physical hard disk, you can verify if the original hard disk is preventing installation. First, completely remove Photoshop Lightroom from the hard disk.
    To install Photoshop Lightroom to a different hard disk after disabling startup items:
    Follow the steps in task 8 above to disable startup items.
    If Photoshop Lightroom autoplay displays, click Cancel when you are requested to Select the Language.
    Copy the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder from the Photoshop Lightroom CD-ROM to the desktop.
    Open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder on the desktop.
    Double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.msi file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    Click Change and select a different hard disk in the Change Current Destination Folder window. Click OK, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
    Intermediate troubleshooting
    If the tasks in the previous section don't solve the problem, try the following intermediate troubleshooting tasks.
    10. Install and run Photoshop Lightroom in a new user account.
    Create a new user account that has the same permissions as the account that you use when the problem occurs. If the problem doesn't recur, the original user account may be damaged. For instructions on creating a new user account, see To add a new user to the computer in Windows Help or contact your system administrator.
    11. Optimize handling of temporary files by Windows Vista.
    Windows and applications store working data in temporary (.tmp) files that they create on the hard disk. Excessive or outdated temporary files can interfere with performance of Windows or applications.
    Delete temporary files by using the Disk Cleanup utility included with Windows or by using the following instructions. Make sure that at least 1 GB of free space is available on the hard disk to which temporary files are written. To start Disk Cleanup, choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup. For information about Disk Cleanup, see Windows Help.
    To manually delete temporary files:
    Note: Windows deletes temporary files when Windows and applications close normally. However, when Windows or an application crashes, temporary files can accumulate on the hard disk. Windows may prevent you from deleting some temporary files as they may be in use. Delete as many temporary files as you possibly can, without deleting the files that are in use.
    Quit all applications.
    Choose Start and type %tmp% in the Search text box and press Enter.
    Delete the contents of this folder.
    Note the drive letter where this directory is located.
    To ensure that at least 1 GB of free space is available on the hard disk to which temporary files are written:
    Choose Start > My Computer.
    Select the drive noted in step 4. Right click and select Properties.
    Confirm the drive has at least 1 GB of free space.
    12. Repair and defragment hard disks.
    System errors can occur if hard disks contain damaged sectors or fragmented files. Repair and defragment hard disks, either by using the Error-checking tool and Disk Defragmenter utility included with Windows or by using a third-party disk utility. You should run such utilities on each hard disk or partition. More information about the Error-checking tool and Disk Defragmenter appears below; for more information about a third-party disk utility, refer to the documentation for the utility.
    The Error-checking tool repairs bad sectors, lost allocation units and file fragments, cross-linked files, and invalid file names. To access the Error-checking tool, choose Start > Computer, right-click the desired hard disk, and choose Properties from the menu. In the Local Disk Properties dialog box, click the Tools tab, and then click Check Now in the Error-checking area.
    Note: To prevent Disk Defragmenter from moving files to bad sectors of a disk, run the Error-checking tool before running Disk Defragmenter.
    Disk Defragmenter rearranges the files and free space on your computer so that files are stored in contiguous units and free space is consolidated in one contiguous block. To access the Disk Defragmenter utility, choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter.
    13. Scan the system for viruses.
    Use current anti-virus software to check the system for viruses. Virus infections can damage software and cause system errors. For more information, see the documentation for the anti-virus software.
    14. Try to install Photoshop Lightroomon a different computer.
    Try to install Photoshop Lightroom on a different computer to determine if the problem is unique to your computer. If the problem is unique to your computer, contact the computer manufacturer; if the problem occurs on multiple computers, contact Adobe Technical Support.
    Advanced Troubleshooting
    If the tasks in the previous section don't resolve the problem, you may be able to resolve the problem by reinstalling Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom, reformatting your hard disk and reinstalling Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom, or by determining if hardware is conflicting with Photoshop Lightroom.
    Disclaimer: Adobe doesn't support hardware and provides these procedures as a courtesy only. For further assistance, contact the hardware manufacturer or an authorized reseller. If you troubleshoot hardware problems yourself, you may void the warranty for your computer.
    Note: Before you remove or rearrange hardware, turn off and disconnect power to the computer and any peripheral devices.
    15. Log in using the built-in Administrator account.
    The built-in Administrator account has a higher access level to the system than a normal local administrator account. By default the built-in Administrator account is disabled. For information about enabling and logging in to the built-in Administrator account, contact your system administrator. You can also refer to this support document on the Microsoft support website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926183/en-us?spid=11737&sid=73.
    16. Reformat the hard disk, and reinstall only Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom.
    Reformat the hard disk, and then install only Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom from the original installation media. Reformatting a disk erases all files it contains, so be sure to back up all personal files first. Also make sure that you have all application and system disks.
    For instructions on performing a clean installation of Windows Vista, see document 918884, "How to install Windows Vista" on the Microsoft website at http://support.microsoft.com.
    Note: Don't install additional software or hardware until you're sure that the problem is resolved. Don't back up the hard disk and restore Windows and Photoshop Lightroom instead of reinstalling them. If the problem is caused by an application or Windows, and either one is restored instead of reinstalled, the problem may recur.
    After you reformat the hard disk and reinstall Windows and Photoshop Lightroom, try to re-create the problem:
    If the problem no longer occurs, then install other applications one at a time and try to re-create the problem after each installation. If the problem occurs after an installation, then the recently installed application may be the cause.
    If the problem occurs when only Windows and Photoshop Lightroom are installed, then the cause may be hardware-related, and you should contact the hardware manufacturer or an authorized reseller for assistance.
    17. Check for problems with RAM modules.
    Ensure that the RAM modules are installed properly and are not the cause of your problem. Do one or both of the following:
    Change the order of the installed modules.
    Remove all but the minimum number of modules needed to run Windows and [product], and test to see if the problem persists. If it does, replace the modules you removed and remove the others, testing again to see if the problem recurs. If it doesn't, then one or more of the removed modules are the cause. For assistance, contact the RAM manufacturer.

  • Installation problem w/Vista

    Boot Camp/Vista installation problem
    MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB RAM, Snow Leopard 10.6.2.
    Trying to install Windows Vista Home Premium using Boot Camp.
    Started Boot Camp Installer and created 32GB partition. Inserted Vista disk as instructed and clicked on Start Installation.
    Black screen appeared looking like this:
    1.
    2.
    Select CD-ROM Boot Type: _
    That last underline was flashing, waiting for input.
    First off, I don't know what to type in, but . . .
    The keyboard appears to be disabled because no keystroke registers, nor Return/Enter. Even pressing caps lock or num lock fails to register a light on those keys.
    The only way out is to hold down the power key until shutdown, then restart with Eject key depressed to eject Vista disk.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi RebelGood,
    have a look here http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=467704 for instructions/solution.
    Basically you have to make yourself a copy of your Vista disc using the files of that disc and a programm called oscdimg.exe plus a burning program.
    And it had to be done on a Windows PC or in virtualized Windows (using Parallels/Fusion/VirtualBox) on your Mac.

  • Rs480 windows-sata installation problem

    Hi all,
                Whenever I try to install windows in my system I press the F6 button and loads the sil3112 sata driver. The first time I tried this worked(win xp with no sps) and I got to install windows. But after sometime I decided reinstall windows. This time when I tried to install windows(win xp with sp1) with the usual procedure like loading the sata driver through F6 method it didnt work. When I reach the partitioning blue screen and when I give prompt to format the drive or partition it windows say that “however the disk does not contain a windows compatible partition” and thus have to exit.
                The same thing happened when I tried to install xp 64bit with sil drivers given in msi site.
    Please do help me with this problem.

    Why not install like you did before, not using a slipstreamed version? It may do the trick!
    Are you runnign single SATA? (I didn't find it in your summary, may looked over it ... maybe you can give your specs like in my signature )
      i'll try you way.but its difficult to get a pure xp. i'll have to dig hard for that.
           for ur 2nd question. i am not running a single sata. i have one sata 80gb and another 20 gb ide.is that a problem

  • Windows 7 installation problem

    Hi, I'm trying to install Windows 7 (specifically, it's windows 7 professional with service pack 1, 64-bit) on my mac (a 13-inch mid-2012 MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.3) via Boot Camp, and I've run into a problem.
    I had no issues when going through the BootCamp Assistant, have a USB drive with all the needed files and everything, and have partitioned my hard drive.  The problem comes up when I get to the point of resetting my computer.
    I get a black screen with the message "no bootable device - insert boot disc and press any key," even though the USB drive is sitting right in the slot and is being read by the computer.  Pressing keys does nothing, naturally.
    The issue isn't getting back to OSX like some other posts I've seen on similar topics, I can do that just fine by holding down the "alt" key on startup (incidentally, the USB drive shows up just fine in my list of available startup disks, so I know it's being read).  I want to know how to find a workaround for this problem and continue with the installation.
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

    Hello jaredm42
    Sometimes it could be that other devices are plugged in when trying to install Windows Check to make sure nothing else is plugged in that could take power away from the USB drive and start the process again.

  • Installation problems on MacBook...

    My sister's MacBook has been having problems with installations.
    While at school, she tried to update her system to 10.4.11. The system had some sort of error and got stuck in shutdown. After finally forcing a shutdown, the system wasn't able to right itself after that. I had her try booting into safe mode, but the machine still couldn't resolve itself. I tried to get her to do an Install and Archive, using the system disk, but halfway through the operation, the installation got stuck.
    After backing up all her data to a friends Mac, she was eventually forced to reinstall the system and start fresh, erasing everything. Somehow, this went without a hitch. She then dragged her personal files back on, and went back to her business.
    She came home, and I tried to give her update 10.4.11. After that installation was complete, the system got stuck in the shutdown process. After seeing it herself, my sister said that's exactly the same thing it did when she tried to run the update on it at school. After a forced shutdown, verbose mode brought back several errors upon startup and the system got hung up. Booting in safe mode seemed to resolve enough errors to allow the system to boot fully. The system now said it was 10.4.11, so I assume that things somehow worked themselves out.
    I thought these problems she had been having were simple flukes, bad luck, until I tried to give her this last update. First I repaired her permissions, then I tried to run Security Update 2007-009 and the system got stuck halfway through, I had no choice but to force shutdown. I decided not to try to finish the update, she had to leave soon and she needed to have the computer for her school work. I didn't have enough time to figure out what was up, so I just decided I'd try to install iLife. Oddly enough, the installation of iLife suffered the same problems.
    Installations all seem to result in the following:
    1 - I have my Activity Monitor running all the time and the icon set to show CPU usage. Just before the installation gets stuck, the CPU usage drops down to almost zero.
    2 - The CPU usage icon freezes where it is, at near zero.
    3 - You can hear the read head of the hard drive shuffling around in a very rhythmic way, as if it's stuck in a loop.
    4 - The system becomes unresponsive to the point that all you can do is move the mouse.
    When the system got stuck in the shutdown process after the 10.4.11 update, the MacBook had a completely black screen, symptom 3 was apparent, the power light came on, and the cooling fan eventually reached what seemed to be full speed.
    So, installations operations are seeming to go horribly wrong even after a fresh install. It would seem to me that there is something wrong with the hard drive, but the computer doesn't seem to have problems doing relatively simple tasks like editing documents. I'm not sure what to think of this whole situation. What would these symptoms seem to indicate is the problem?

    bad to worse. The system just tanked again, major freeze - resulting in the need to do yet another forced shutdown, it won't startup, install & archive fails, and trying to zero out the hard drive results in an error, it can't be done!
    She's off at college, nowhere near an Apple Store. She really needs this computer for her school work. What should she do?
    Are Fujitsu hard drives notoriously unreliable?

  • Windows 8 installation problem, please help..

    I tried to install windows 8 (legal) on my 5/2012 Macbook Air using Bootcamp. Everything was ok since I entered the disc-choosing part. On "bootcamp partition" the installation program says "unable to install windows to this partition because of missing drivers, try to enter Bios". When I restart the computer, only the Windows logo is able to be seen and thats all, now it´s impossible to even enter the Windows installation programme. But, when I disconnect my flash disc containing W8, Mac is still booting W8 installation saying "No bootable media found". Is there any possibilty to enter my MacOS, system choice, or at least to download new MacOS and format the disc?
    Thank you so much....

    @filisipi: I am not sure if I understood your problem correct. Holding down the "Alt"-Key after turning on the power of your MBA should give you the joice between all operating systems recognized at this point in time. This should provide the way to boot again with Mac OS.

  • Installation Problems with OS X Tiger

    I'm currently running osX ver 10.1.5 i think. ( the nunber of versions are driving me nuts). Right now, i'm trying to install OS X Tiger ver 10.4. I've put in the disc, watch the window appear, clicked on the install icon, the reboot icon appeared, and clicked on it. After the reboot, the same window remains, but no further windows appear. So, i decided to click the icon again, as the same, the reboot button appears, and this time, while rebooting, i pressed the "C" key. After the whole system rebooted, it still remains unchanged.
    Could it be my installation disc giving me problems? Or is it my system giving me problems? Currently running 640 MB and a 120GB hard drive.
    Please help...!
    G4   Mac OS X (10.2.x)

  • Installation problems in Compaq Presario V2617LA Laptop

    Hello,
    I am new in all of this Unix-Linux world and I need some help, here's my problem:
    I have already partitioned and prepared my HDD to install Solaris, Windows and maybe Fedora (if someone recommends a better Linux it'll be appreciated), all of those three partitions perfectly identified and ready for the OS (it happens that I learn quickly, but I'm still new on this). I perfectly pass all Solaris 10 11/06 installation windows and requirements and Solaris begins installation, BUT when it all looks great, the installation (progress bar) just stops moving having 209.29 MBytes remaining and installing the 'Solstice Enterprise Agents 1.0.3 files for root file system', the wierdest thing is that the little slash-dash at the end is still turning around, the working processor light is on and nothing freezes (except when I navigate through the menu options), I have waited for a whole day and the installation does not finish and even re-downloaded Solaris and burn the image again two times and nothing.
    Could it be a hardware compatibility problem? What do you think?
