Installed 10.4.7, then bigtime problems

Just installed 10.4.7 on my iMac G5 (yep, first generation - purchased about a year ago, and within the serial # range of extension/recall*)...and after doing my standard post-update repair of permissions and clearing of PRAM, the finder would not launch completely. Rebooted from the CD to run a repair disk, and after that the fan went nuts. It's roaring like crazy, even after letting the computer sit for 15 min. Now it's loud AND inoperable.
Thoughts?
*Guessing the consensus will be to just take the thing in...But I'd love to somehow remedy myself, since my wife works from home on this machine...

How about downloading the combo updater here and trying again? That will sometimes fix the problem.
Please post back with results,
Miriam

    Since it will not boot then a hardware test can't be run. You could try FireWire Target Disk Mode and if it works then access from another Mac to run tests on the new drive. You could also try installing the OS X software from the host computer. If this does not work then professional help should be considered.

    at this point yes, you should uninstall everything migrated, clean and then reinstall properly using the installation files.

  • I have been getting this message " no sim installed " too many times then my phone goes off , its iphone 4S , its really a problem i cant get calls or anything and im not sure how to take the SIM out then insert it again , what to do ??

    i have been getting this message " no sim installed " too many times then my phone goes off , its iphone 4S , its really a problem i cant get calls or anything and im not sure how to take the SIM out then insert it again , what to do ??

    Use the sim tool that came with your phone or a safety pin and just insert it into the hole at the side of the sim tray and push it in and then pull it out.  It is no more difficult than that and then just close it again.

  • HT1926 My itunes won't open because it says "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem" Can someone help? I don't want to delete it altogether due to needing the phone backup

    I was given notification to upload the latest version of itunes recently, so I clicked installed. However it has since corrupted my itunes and I get the error message:
    "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem".
    In poor timing, I have also accidently damaged my phone and have a new one to restore it to an old back up.
    It is because of this I am reluctant to completely delete itunes off my computer and start again for fear of losing my back ups.
    Is there another way to fix iTunes so I can open it again?
    Thanks

  • Since installing mountain lion i have a problem with mail. when i delete a message close  and open mail the message has come back. please help!

    Since installing Mountain Lion i have a problem with Mail. I delete a number of messages from the same person but keep the newest message in my Inbox. I actually delete them from the Trash. The next time i open Mail the deleted messages are back again. Can anybody please help as this is getting annoying. Thanks in Anticipation.

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash.
    Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
    Launch the 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.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

  • When the message arrives, the message tone sound that many times. How this problem can be solved? I installed the new version, but the problem is not resolved, the future is to be taken into account in the new version of this?

    When the message arrives, the message tone sound that many times. How this problem can be solved? I installed the new version, but the problem is not resolved, the future is to be taken into account in the new version of this?

    I'm not sure I understand the question, is the message tone going more then once?
    Turn off repeat message alert here:
    settings > notifications > messages > repeat alert > never
    Some people have found this does not stop the repeat miessage tone,
    if you are one of those then I suggest you contact Apple:

    They may not respond, but hopefully will fix in uodate if enough people complain.

  • Can't install iTunes, "Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close"

    I just got a new Dell. My old iTunes 5.0 wouldn't install, so I downloaded the new 7.0, and am having an issue. I have tried all of the support recommendations on this site, including deleting everything and reinstalling, changing the audo and speaker settings, QTime settings, etc (although when I try to uninstall Quicktime it won't let me). I even did the MSCONFIG and tried to do a selective start up with just iTunes. I initally was getting the Ipod Service error that people have posted about, but once I deleted my old Ipod Updater, that stopped, but now this is what happens: The install appears to go through just fine, and says it has completed. But when I try to click the icon, it says "Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close". Any ideas? This is very frustrating. My daughter just got an Ipod for Christmas and is terribly upset she can't use it.
    Thanks

    I finally got it to work. Uninstall quicktime and itunes. Go to quicktime and just install quicktime and then go to itunes and install itunes. This solved my problem. Yeh. After 3 days I finally got it. Good luck!

    Hi Deepak!
    This seems to be a well-known and quite widespread problem with this extension, unfortunately - the net is full of complaints about this issue, not to mention 'horror stories' about how this (otherwise fairly innocent and well-certified but clearly highly commercial) extension has 'sneaked' its way into peoples installations.
    I find it quite amazing that such an issue has existed for so long without the Browser Highlighter, TinyMCE and FCKeditor teams getting together and making a working fix - it should be rather easy to prevent with a tag or plugin check in editor code and/or a simple editor recognition routine in the extension.
    If you want (/need) to use this extension, I can only point you to the Browser Highlighter homepage for support; in [http://thebrowserhighlighter.com/help.jsp The Browser Highlighter Help section] it is clearly documented - first section, last paragraph - along with a link to [http://thebrowserhighlighter.com/blacklist.jsp this problem report form] where it seems you can ask for help solving the problem.
    However, given the (script-)name of the page, I suppose that reporting a problem on your own website (with all details) actually adds your site - or part of it - to a blacklist that TBH maintains to turn off TBH or at least problematic script injections when visiting sites registered in this list. So actually this might help you solve the problem quite easily, if they do what the page implies.
    Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help more users with similar problems.

    I have exactly the same problem.  iPhone 4S, never been jailbroken.  Not behind a firewall and it happens whether I am on my home compute (iTunes) or directly thru Settings_Update.
    Looks like loads of people are having the same problem - and as far as I can see, Apple's sole reply is jailbreak or behind firewall/ security settings/anti-virus.  None of those apply here!

  • Can not open and install iphoto! What`s the problem?

    Can not open and install iphoto! What`s the problem?

    The problem is, apparently, that you can neither open nor install iPhoto.
    Seriously, you give us nothing to work with.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.
