Installing Yosemite not possible

Is not possible in my MacBook air. Essantials.pkg is failed to extract. And hints?
Ulli

Thank you for the response to my question. Resetting SMC had no effect, but resetting PRAM did the trick. Probably should have done it a long time ago.

16 mo young Mac Pro will not turn on. Dead. Why. No problems ever! Installed Yosemite and did not boot up after. Did that kill it? To young to die. What happened?what do I do now??????? Help!

Note that you don't have a Mac Pro as stated. Your profile says you have a MacBook Pro. Please clarify as they are entirely different computers. If nothing below works for you, then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Not enough space to install Yosemite, after I've already began installing it.

I have a 2010 Macbook Pro and I began upgrading to Yosemite last night. Before it finished installing I closed my laptop and went to sleep. When I opened it back up the installation process did not resume, so I forced it to shut down. Now when I turn it on it tells me that I do not have enough space to install it on my hard drive. I have been restarting it, but it will not let me exit the installation set up process, but now I cannot install it because I don't have enough space. It allows me to go into disk utility mode, but I don't have a back up of my system. Can anyone help? I would prefer not to lose all my info but I understand that this is a possibility. I just want to make sure I do the right thing if I can get out of this mess. If I go buy an external hard drive, could I plug it in and install Yosemite on the external?
THanks for any help.

Are you following these directions?

What you may have to do is click on the HDD icon and check the bottom of the display where the Permissions are displayed. You may have to make changes there.

IPhoto update can't be installed on my MAC ref. "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled." this is not possible help?

Recent upgrade to OS X Yosemite on my MAC and iPhoto update can not now be installed msg reads, "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled." this is not possible help?

That error message can be misleading. It means, that iPhoto on your Mac is not associated with your Apple ID.
Either you did not set up your Mac using the same Apple ID - did someone help with your setup and use a different ID? Perhaps a family member? Or did you let someone borrow your installer disks?
Or did you not yet "Accept" iPhoto and other iLife apps to your Apple ID? Check the "Purchased" tab of the App Store, if any applications are waiting to be accepted. If you see "Accept" buttons, press them.
You may be unable to "Accept" now, if you missed the update to iphoto 9.5.1 on Mavericks. You could try to buy iPhoto, however. If you are lucky, it may show for free.
Backup your iPhoto library, if you do not have a current backup.
Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the Applications folder, but do not empty the Trash, so you can put it back,if need be.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
Open the main page "Featured" of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support to sort out the AppleID. Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/

I just installed Yosemite. iPhoto is gone, and Photos does not open. Instead, I am prompted to update to the latest version. The App Store tells me that is not available in the US. What do I do? Cannot access any photos.

OSX Yosemite not installing

I was running the latest vertion of mavericks on my MacBook pro and decided to install Yosemite. It downloaded fine but when it restarted it said that the disk can not be verifyed .... However I made the rookie mistake of not backing up my files so first is there a way I can get them before I start to mess around with getting it to install?
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi sammybob09,
If the Yosemite installer stopped and is saying that your hard drive volume can not be verified it means that there may be some corruption of the drive's directory or possibly that there is a hardware issue with the physical drive itself. If your MacBook Pro is able to boot back into Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) of course your should immediately back up any important files to an external hard drive or other media such as burning to DVDs.
If you are unable to get back into Mavericks you have a somewhat more difficult issue. One possible solution would be to use another Mac and boot your MacBook Pro into Target Disk Mode while the two are connected to each other. See this article -
OS X Mavericks: Transfer files between two Mac computers
Once the files have been copied to a safe location you can then attempt to repair the hard drive by booting into OS X Recovery. See this article -
OS X: About OS X Recovery
Use the Disk Utility to select the hard drive volume and click "Repair Disk." If there are any errors they will show up here. If Disk Utility is able to repair those errors you should be able to restart the computer and continue where you left off. If unable to repair the errors that indicates a hardware failure and the hard drive will need to be replaced.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

Keynote not opening after installing Yosemite

I recently installed Yosemite. Keynote was downloaded from app store but was listed as "pending" in my app store purchases. I suspected that it was not installed properly and using App Cleaner, I deleted the copy of Keynote and tried to reinstall from the app store (Debug mode, reset application). This workflow did not work as Keynote is listed as opened despite its removal. Reinstalling Keynote is not possible as the app is showing as installed, but does not open
Please advise.

Ensure there are no copies of Keynote stored on any of your connected drives:
empty the trash
eject or disconnect all secondary drives connected to the Mac: this includes backup drives, Time Machine, scratch drives, etc etc
search in Spotlight for Keynote and delete any Keynote files listed
try the Mac Store again
If this does not solve the issue contact Apple Support they may need to reset your MAS account.

Why it is not possible to install apps on an SD card on a Win 8.1 tablet?

Why it is not possible to install apps on an SD card on a Win 8.1 tablet? If it is possible to install apps on SD card in Windows phone 8.1, why is it not possible on Windows 8.1? What sort of design philosophy you follow that gives better features on
a mobile version of the OS but not on the parent OS? Kindly explain if you can!

Hello,
I'd ask in the

HT203421 Since installing Yosemite 10.10 the Apps Store application on my iMac does not work

installing Yosemite 10.10 the Apps Store application on my iMac does not work properly. Applications show up in the App Store window to be updated but in fact most of them do not download and install. Some 3rd party software does download and install but most Apple and HP Applications do not. They appear in some cases in both the Ready to update or install list and in the "Installed in the last 30 days list". In some cases when I click on "Update" it shows in the "Installed in the Last 30 Days list" but it is not installed. In the case of the latest Yosemite 10.10.3 beta down load, it momentarily show up like it is downloading but then disappears and does not install.

I am now using Yosemite 10.10.2 and am trying to install the beta Download Yosemite 10.10.3 hoping it will resolve my problem but starts to download from the App Store snd then quits.

Multiple usage of Source System is not possible with installed DMIS version on source

Hello folks!
I`ve got a problem trying to adjust the Data Replication to SAP BW (on HANA) using SAP LT Replication Server.
I`ve deleted one connection and after that I`m trying to create new one through Configuration & Monitoring Dashboard (transaction LTR) with the same source / target systems.
As result when on the second step (Specify Source System) I specify RFC destination of the source system it appears an error with text
"Multiple usage of Source System is not possible with installed DMIS version on source".
But there`s no any adjusted connection in system now..
Please, help me to understand how to fix that problem, I can`t find a solution

Hi,
When you say that you 'deleted one connection', did you delete the RFC connection or the SLT Configuration? If it is not a real multiple usage scenario, then deactivate the 'allow multiple usage' flag, else install the correct DMIS version on both SLT and source.
Thanks
kris
