IPod driver 3.1 install on Mac OS X 10.2.8 crashes

Hi, I have an iMac G3 that I have upgraded the OS to Mac OS X 10.2.8 and I am having problems with installing the iPod driver 3.1. In software update it downloads jsut fine, but when it trys to intall it software update crashes. I have tryed to find a download of the driver but to no avail. I have noticed that this is a common problem. I was just wondering if anyone found anything on this. I am a very technical person so I can handle more technical instructions. THanks!

Is this the one?

At first I thought this was a Windows-only download. but there are two different links there. The big button on the right side points to a .dmg file, so it's Mac.
EDIT: Oops! I just noticed that driver requires Mac OS 10.3.9 or higher. Maybe that's the problem. However, I'm surprised that Software Update would offer it were it not supported by your OS.
SU--at least in later versions of the Mac OS--has the option to download only rather than install. Might download it, quit SU, and then try installing.

How to convert an ipod with Windows software installed to Mac operation

I have a 20MB ipod which has windows software on it. It is very hard to load songs onto as I can only see the ICON on the desktop and not in itunes and this way they don't seem to properly mount! I have a 12" ibook that I connect it to. I can't seem to follow how one is supposed to wipe the Windows OS (or whatever) off the ipod and install the Mac one ?!?!? Am I trying to do the impossible? A step-by-step answer would be soooooo appreciated.
12" ibook Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Information on the iPod not appearing in iTunes is available in this article. To reformat the iPod for Mac, open a new Finder window and click the Applications icon in the sidebar; from here, open Utilities and then iPod Software Updater. Locate the most recent version of the iPod updater inside, open it, and click the Restore button with the iPod connected. Doing this will change the iPod into the Mac format and erase everything currently on it.

P1102W doesn't broadcast SSID & Driver cannot be installed on Mac OS 10.7.5

Hi,
I bought a new wifi extender and managed to mess about the settings. I have no idea how this happened.
But the current situation is that P1102W doesn't talk to me because it doesn't broadcast its SSID so I cannot login through its Embedded Web Server. I cannot connect it through USB to my MacBook Pro either. I suspect it is because I somehow messed up my driver setting. But I cannot re-install my driver somehow.
the machine is on Mac OS 10.7.5. The printer P1102w is already in its printer list (on wifi but is not connected). I tried to reinstall driver in order to connect through USB. But the installation always failed at the last step (mac popped up message suggesting me to talk to software supplier). I have done "Repair Disk Permissions" a few times. Still the driver doesn't install. The driver I talk about is "LJP1100_P1560_P1600_Full_Solution.dmg"
My HP P1102w has been reset to factory default by powering up while pressing the cancel (X) and wifi buttons a few times. Although its blue wifi light is blinking, it doesn't broadcast its SSID, so I cannot connect to its web based set up page.
I hope someone out there can help me. If I failed to provide any necessary information for your diagnosis, please let me know. Thank you for your help.

Hi @SillySilly,
I see by your post that you have lost the wireless connection with the printer, since setting up a extender. I can help you with this.
You will have to network the printer to the main network. Make sure there isn't any spaces or special characters in the network name.
Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. (sometimes the EWS won't open if it isn't set as the default)
Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
If you can still print by a USB connection, skip to running the HTML Config section.
I would run the uninstaller, there might be bits and pieces of the old software still installed.
Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Reset the Printing System:
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
Click Printers & Scanners.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system.
Connect the printer directly to the Mac.
Run the downloaded drivers again. HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
If you have any issues with the HTML config opening then do the following steps:
Close any applications.
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, computer, MAC harddrive, Library, Printers, HP, LaserJet, click on folder for your printer, click on EWS browser or HTML config, click the Networking tab, click wireless on the left and fill out your information. (make sure infrastructure is selected) Apply settings.
Then delete the USB driver and add the network printer.
Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

PowerBook G3 @ 233MHz & 192MB of RAM Mac OS X (10.2.x) iMac G3 @ 233MHz, DELL Dimension 2400 @ 2.4GHz, iPod Shuffle 1GB

I have the exact same problem with my Power Mac. At first I thought it was an issue w/ my Sonnet upgrade card but after reading these forums its obviously a software issue. Everything else about 10.2.8 has worked fine but when I attempt to download & install the iPod driver 3.1 the "software updater" unexpectedly quits. I have yet to find a direct download from Apple's website that would allow us to bypass the software updater but perhaps the problem lies within the OS. If anyone could provide some suggestions here it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

Please Help! Windows won't install IPod Driver!

My brother got a 2GB IPod nano and itunes and everything installs but when i plug in the IPod i get the install driver window. I click to intsall driver but it keeps saying it couldnt find anything to install (even when i have the disc the ipod came with inside). Its a Toshiba labtop. If anyone knows why the driver won't install or had the same problem please help! Thanks

Hi brunos mum, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.

My ipod was set up on a Mac. Now I have a PC and want to sync my music on iTunes, but I can't without reformatting my drive and losing my music.

My ipod was set up on a Mac. Now I have a PC and want to sync my music on iTunes, but I can't without reformatting my drive and losing my music. Help. I no longer have a Mac. I want to keep the music and videos I purchased. Since it is an iPod classic (80GB) I cannot even use the iCloud. Is there a way to move my ipod's music so I can reformat it to my pc?

WIndows is asking you to reformat the iPod's hard disk because it's probably in the Mac OS X Extended Journaled file system format which the Windows OS can neither read or write to. Reformatting will erase all content from the device and rebuild the filesystem as FAT32 unless you specify it as NTFS (which you shouldn't do).
If you want to be able to use your iPod to copy music from your Mac to your PC, you'll need to either pre-format it as FAT32 using Disk Utility on your Mac and then copy everything over to your PC, or use third party software such as XPlay that allows a Windows PC to read and write to a Mac formatted iPod.
Perhaps you could take a look at this article for other ways to copy your iTunes library and files from your Mac to the PC.

I got a Model Number: A1181, My hard drive burned out. I bouhgt a new hard drive Wd Blue Scorpio 500 GB. When i tried to install the MAC OS, it identifies a hard drive with 3.6 TB and i'm not able to do the installation. I touhgt the new ard drive was bad but i was able to install windows XP. Any ideas what do i have to do?

Well, let's hope that nothing was jiggled out of place when you were installing the new hard drive. Your optical drive may just be out of alignment or the disc you have is "dirty." Get a lint-free cloth and some rubbing alcohol, then clean the disc as thoroughly as you can starting from the center and working outward in a concentric circlular motion. See if that helps. In particular clean the inner portion well.
If this does not help, then you have a problem. You have opened the computer yourself. That action voids all support from Apple. If you take the computer in for service the store may refuse to service the computer. This is not related to your now expired warranty.

I have a seagate external hard drive with files copied from windows pc. If I will download NTFS driver from seagate to my mac, could I install it safely without harming my files in the external hard drive? I am afraid I may erase all files in there.

I have a seagate external hard drive with files transferred from my windows pc. If I will download NTFS Driver from seagate to my mac, could I install it safely without harming my files? I am afraid.. I might erase all my important files during the installation..

Thanks a lot! I have already downloaded Paragon Driver and it works well with seagate external hard drive. I am copying as of now my important files from my mac to it. However, I have only the trial version which will expire in 10 days. I don't have credit card to buy for it.

Had PSE 8 installed on PC Windows 7 with a catalog backup on an external drive. Now have a Mac with OS Mavericks. If I install PSE 12 or Lightroom on this Mac can I use the cat. backup from Windows or must I start from scratch

Had pse 8 on a Windows 7 PC with a catalog backup on an external drive. Now have a Mac with OS Mavericks. If install pse 12 or Lightroom on the Mac will I be able to use the old catalog backup or must I start from scratch.

If you made a full catalog backup using the organizer's backup command, and you did it to a removable drive, yes, you can restore it to the mac. A backup made on discs will not work, though.

Win7 won't install in Mac mini SL w/no optical drive, crashes when accessing external HD

I've been trying to install win7 on my Mac Mini with 10.6.8 that doesn't have an optical drive. I've been able to do the bootcamp partition just fine but when it goes to restart into the windows partition with the win7 disk in the external HD, my screen goes grey, then a green with purple border and then black. I have to reboot and if I press the alt/opt key, I'm able to get into OSX again. The research I've done shows I need to create a .iso file which I did with disk utility. I created all types of .iso files, read only, compressed and dvd.cdr files. Nothing is working. Bootcamp is not recognizing any of the 5 thumb drives I've put the .iso files on as I read some drives aren't able to be recognized. The external HD works as I reinstalled SL just fine using it. My research also shows that win7 won't install from an external HD. So I'm at a a loss as to how to proceed from here. I went into my old windows machine to try to create a bootable thumb drive after I install win7 there but the Dell is so old, I don't have a DVD drive in it, only a CD drive. And if I buy a downloadable version of win7 I still need to get it to a DVD or a thumb drive to get it installed.
Does anyone have any ideas? I called Apple and their support ended at "well, we did our job by getting you to the BootCamp partition" which is a crock. It's their design to take out the optical drive and now it's everyone else's problem! Sorry, I know I've got attitude but I'm so frustrated!!
Thanks in advance! I'm posting this here and in bootcamp discussion.

Hatter helped me out without even knowing he helped me out. In cruising through the archives, he advised another problem seeker to unplug everything except 1 monitor, a mouse and a keyboard. Which I did and that solved my problems at last. I also burned my .iso file to a DVD with my MBP and it was able to be read by the external HD. So keep searching the forums peeps, your answer may be there after all!

I just had to put a new hard drive in my Macbook. How do I "backload" my Ipod tunes back into Itunes on the new hard drive I had installed?

Somebody told me that as soon as I connect the Ipod to the computer, Itunes will will wipe it clean and install what is in the Itunes library (which is nothing) and that I would need some sort of software to accomplish this. Does it matter that the tunes on the Ipod were all uploaded from cd's and not purchased?

I had to replace my hard drive twice in my power mac g5. Luckily, I had the foresight to install a backup drive the second time around. Has anybody had HD problems? Is it the Power Mac or I just lucked out on some bad drives.

Hi Leon,
There are many well known G5 problems, but being hard on Hard Drives is not one of them.
How old & what brand/model drives were they?

I can't find my install disc! How do I install my LG Super Multi BLADE Mac compatible external drive without the install disc?

You don't have installer discs with that model. What do you need to do? USB and Thunderbolt external drives do not require any special software. If you need to partition and format them, then use Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
