Is everyone having problems after installing 10.4.9?

I just switched to a MAC several months ago after having Windows based machines for 20 years. Made the switch just to avoid the same problems I had with Windows, problems with software updates. I installed 10.4.9 last night and all of the sudden AOL stopped working. I used the Activity monitor to help me unfreeeze the AOL uploading and it appears to work now. Now my Mail no longer works. Also Safari has begun to continually crash. Had to restart numerous times to get to forum to paste this. Help! Is this a common problem with Apples, should we avoid doing software updates?

Is everyone having problems? Certainly not. I manage over forty systems, all of them upgraded to 10.4.9, and not one of them is having a problem. So your problem is by no means universal, at least.
The first thing to do is to boot your system from the 10.4 install disk, run Disk Utility, and have it verify the disk and the permissions and repair if necessary.
If no problems are shown by Disk Utility, you might try downloading the Combo update, if you can, and applying that. Sometimes the incremental upgrader can exascerbate problems with corrupted files; in such cases, the Combo updater sometimes fixes the problem.
Failing that, reinstalling 10.4 (use the Archive and Install option) and then performing the upgrade might fix the problem. Again, sometimes an update can magnify or bring up a pre-existing problem, or sometimes and update just goes wrong.

  • How do i pause quick time recording ? having problem after installing maverick

    i have been having issue with quick time recording . after installing this Maverick i and no longer able to pause the Recording.
    nothing happens when i press the option key.
    done any one know the fix
    Thanks

    Ski Farm,
    I hope you are doing well today! The suggestion provided by altenbach is really good. Alternatively, you can also use a global variable and an event or case structure, to pause the execution of a VI. I have attached an example of a subVI, called by the mainVI, which displays the current iterative count of a while loop. Please let us know if you have any other questions. Have a great day!

  • Printing problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16

    Has anyone experienced any problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16 through Software Update? I am having problems printing. It denotes an error message, specifically the rastertoescpii.app isn't working?

    Oops, wanted everyone to know that the driver that Software Update downloaded and installed was 2.18, not 2.16 (which was the last one that worked for me). I just got done downloading the 2.18 driver directly from the Apple support website and installing it. Guess what? My printer is now working and everything is fine. If you are having issues, I suggest this route. Guess I solved my own problem, but hope this helps someone else.

  • A lot of problems after installing Windows XP using Boot Camp on a Mac Book

    I have been having a lot of problems after installing Windows XP Home Edition (2002).
    For one, after installing Windows using Boot Camp with Mac OS X 10.5.1, I opened Windows on my Mac Book, inserted the Mac OS X Disk 1 as in the instructions and got the message: +"This package requires a newer version of the Windows installer. Do you want to update the version of the Windows Installer on your system?"+ When I clicked Yes (I had NO idea what it meant at the time), I got the message: "The required resource 'UPDATE' is missing" and the Installer quit.
    How do I fix this problem?
    Another problem I have is that there is no sound on the Windows XP, yet it works perfectly on Mac OS X. Is there any way to fix this problem?
    A third problem I have is that I can't wirelessly connect to the internet using Window XP, yet I can on Mac OS X. I have no idea on how to fix this, and it's really messing with me. D:<
    D: There are way too many problems, and I have a feeling there will be a lot more later on. Help....

    I have already installed Oracle Database 11g Release 2 -------
    ----Then i configured JAVA Access bridge
    --------then installed and configured Required Schema using Repository Creation Utility of same version of Database 11g,
    -----------then installed Oracle Business Intelligence 11g version 11.1.1.6.0 which includes Web logic..............I am feeling that i did right at this point...........
    ..............also feeling comfortable after install Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g ..................
    -----------------but don't know how to configure OID to install Oracle Portal Forms Reports and Discoverer 11g...............
    Please help my Oracle Friends
    Your early help will be highly appreciated.
    thanks and regards
    Hassan

    You said, "...+I would like to install Release 2(11.1.1.2.0)+ ...". Be careful. 11.1.1.2.0 is not Release 2. The version for Rel 2 is 11.1.2.0, notice that there is one less "1". Also, there is no way to patch from Release 1 to Release 2.
    In EDelivery, this is what you should find if you search on "Oracle Fusion Middleware" for "Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)":
    First look for this link then drill into it:
    Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)
    In this section you will find the following:
    This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 2 (Forms & Reports)
    Oracle Forms and Reports 11g R2 (11.1.2.0.0) for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit) V28761-01
    This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 1 (includes Portal, Forms, Reports, and Disco)
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 1 of 4) V18785-01
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 2 of 4)
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 3 of 4)
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 4 of 4)
    This is the FMw 11 Release 1 patch set that will bring the above 11.1.1.2.0 installation to 11.1.1.6.  This is NOT a full product installation - just a patch
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Patch Set 5 (11.1.1.6.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) V29850-01
    There are no patch sets for Release 2 as of yet.

  • TS5376 I'm having problems with install version 11.1.4. If I uninstall and reinstall will I lose all my downloaded music?

    I'm having problems with install version 11.1.4. If I uninstall and reinstall will I lose all my downloaded music?

    Hi, so did I.  It seems to be a huge problem with everyone.  I opened a folder on desktop and called it target.  I copied all my songs into that folder.
    I uninstalled Itunes completely.  Rebooted.  Then I installed a fresh install.
    I then dragged all the songs back to Itunes and it worked.  I hope that helps. 
    I read an article the other day and apple is suppose to come out with some genius fix for this problem, it really seems to be global.
    Good luck,

    great Problemes after installing Yosemite (10.10.2 ) with Photoshop CS6....The program crashes --last time 10 times during my work session..wacomtable doesnt work..it is slow...and get error messages about the graphic card....It s a Terror to work with my beloved Photoshop!

    The Yosemite upgrade very often damages existing Photoshop installations.  Thank Apple for that.
    You need to uninstall and re-install Photoshop, then apply all the Photoshop upgrades from scratch.
    But first, give us details about your setup:
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

  • Dreamweaver CS4 having issues after installing PS CS6 Beta

    Hi All,
    I'm having issues with Dreamweaver CS4 after installing Photoshop CS6 Beta. I'm getting the follwing erros when trying to open any html file (see attached image).
    Once I click OK, the file will open, also now; any copy and paste commands will not work. Anyone else experiencing any problems with other apps after installing this beta version?
    Any help and feedback is much appreciated, thanks!

    Re :Re: Dreamweaver CS4 having issues after installing PS CS6 Beta
    Just a thought ...
    This may help!
    Uninstall the Beta Version of Photoshop CS6 now and then restart your computer and see if that works.
    Open the CS4 programs and see if that fixed the problem and it is all working as it should again.
    It is worth a try!
    All the best.

  • I see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder

    i see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder. I see that it means that it isn't reading the new hard drive.
    did i miss a step between transferring all of my information from my old hard drive to the new hard drive and installing the new hard drive into the computer. I believe that i installed properly. it was quite easy.
    thanks for your help

    It means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    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.
         1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
             button.
         2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
         3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
         4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
             to the Destination entry field.
         5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
             the Source entry field.
         6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive.

    I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 last August 2013 and having problems with installing it on Windows 8.1.  Why am I having this problem?

    You can check you Adobe account online to see if the serial number is registered under your account.  If not then your only option will likely be to contact Adobe Support directly thru chat to see if they can provide you with a/the serial number. For them to do so will require you being able to prove ownership.

  • Having issues after installing Essbase V9.3.1,configuring the SQL interface

    I am having issues after installing Essbase V9.3.1 and configuring the SQL interface. we are using UNIX/AIX box for our Essbase server and UDB DB2 9.1 SP6 as our SQL Interface.

    I had similar errors when first setting up the SQL interface. Are you on a 64 bit operating system on the essbase server? If so Essbase needs to use the 32 bit odbc driver, not the default 64 bit driver.
    The 32 bit driver is still available here SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe <-----This is the 32 bit (Use)
    The Administrative tools by default uses system32\odbcad32.exe <----This is the 64 bit (Don't Use)
    Once I opened the 32 bit driver interface directly and set it up the errors went away.

  • Problem after installing 10.4.8

    Hello,
    I installed the 10.4.8 update today. I have a brand new macbook. When the update finished downloading, my screen just turned blank, my computer didn't react at all. I could hear the fan and that was it.
    So, I waited for some minutes, nothing happened. I decided to restart it by pressing the power button for a few seconds.
    The computer is working perfectly now and the update was installed. But, how do I know if my computer or the HD were affected? I ran the HD test and it says that the HD seems OK.
    Is that a problem with my computer or is it because of the new update? I read a posting that mentioned similar problems after installing the new update.
    Thanks...

    How did you update? Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update (delta)?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304200
    After installing the delta version of this update on an Intel-based Mac, the computer will restart two times--the first restart after installing this update may take several minutes; please allow it to complete.
