I have just installed entrophys PHP 5 on my mac, and have had
a message that says:
Install failed. The following install step failed: run
postflight script for Entrophy PHP. Contact the software
manufacturer for assistance.
I have tried testing with phpinfo, but I am only seeing
<?php phpinfo(); ?> in the browser. I have restarted to try
and get rid of the problem, I have reinstalled too, but no joy.
Any ideas as to where I go from here?

Mac OSX 10.6, Apache and PHP and Marc Liyanage
I am just about to get PHP up and running (hopefully) on my Mac where I have just installed 10.6, and I was about to use David Powers recommended route of Marc Liyanage's Entrophy PHP, but I read there that a number of people are having trouble with getting Marcs normally excellent installation up and running on 10.6.
Has anybody here used the Entrophy download on 10.6 and managed to get it working?
I also found this link from David Powers... http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/php_leopard.php
It seems straight forward, and I think I prefer to go this route if nobody has managed to get the entrophy download to work. However, does this step-by-step guide still apply to 10.6?
I know how to switch the apache server on by activating web sharing, but in 10.6, is the pre installed PHP still disabled by default?
I am asking this BEFORE I go ahead and try it for myself, as in the past I have managed to totally ruin a perfectly good Mac OSX system, and it caused me all sorts of headaches and pains.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks.
MatThat was a great tutorial / walk through.
In fact, I would say that was far easier than the entrophy route (which is good) as you can see exactly what you are doing rather than relying on an installer which has often failed in the past for me, and then just suddenly worked for no apparent reason!
Just two things to improve it for other users, and they are really VERY minor... From previous experience, I knew where to find the php.ini.default file, but you don't let people know where to find that, and the links to the MySQL downloads were broken. I guess that is because the file names have changed or because I am coming at it from a different country. I got a message stating: 'That file does not exist on our download mirrors.'
Thanks for doing that, I really appreciate you (and the likes of David Powers) taking the time to set these tutorials up for others to use.

Sharing files between a Windows Vista Business edition and a Mac osx 10.6.6
Is there reliable information somewhere about how to share files from a Windows Vista business edition pc to a Mac osx 10.6.6? I have googled instructions and followed the steps and still could not have sharing to happen between the Vista pc and the Mac. These are the steps I have performed, I have made sure that
o Both the Vista pc and the Mac have the same user account/password.
o The firewall from the Vista side allows file and printer sharing in the exceptions.
o Enabled sharing with a few directories on the Vista pc.
o Changed the security policy on the Vista pc to "LM and NTLM - use NTLMV2 session security if negotiated".
o On the Mac System Preferences > Sharing selected File sharing.
On the Windows Vista pc, if I click the Start menu and then Network, the Mac does not appear. On the Mac, from the Finder menu if I click Go > Connect to server and request a connection to the IP address of that Vista pc, I get an error, "Connection Failed" (could not find pc or not available at this time).
What else do I need?That was a great tutorial / walk through.

Where can I get a copy of MAC OSX 10.4 to install?
I am trying to install Maya 6 on my mac and I get the error that my computer is too new... where can I get a copy of MAC OSX 10.4 to install? I have an old powerPC that I could put this on instead of my newer computer. My company does not have to resources to upgrade the copy of Maya at the moment, so this is my best option.
Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753). For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4) . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray) See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1976068 Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac?
Also check these web stores: http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521 http://www.allmac.com/shop/index.php?cPath=5_10003
Possible Alternative if you are currently using Panther 10.3 – Do a Google search for Tiger 10.4 Upgrade DVD. It will upgrade your 10.3 to 10.4, but it doesn’t contain the full retail Tiger installer. Should be cheaper than the retail Tiger install DVD.
After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Look at this link Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page
http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/
You can also download the Tiger Installation and Setup Guide
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/Tiger_Install_Setup_Guide.pdf
When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710 Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.

Mac OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues
Hi,
I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X installed and Adobe CS3.
I've installed a font. The font works in Photoshop and Illustrator
but not in Flash CS3. Why? I've put the font in the Library/Fonts
folder and the User/Fonts folder and it still doesn't show up in
Flash. Apparently this is a problem for a number of people see
another forum here:
MAC
OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues Forum
Please let me know what to do to fix this. I need to be able
to work with the font in all three applications Flash, Photoshop
and Illustrator.Hi davidd61713525,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
Unfortunately, it looks like something is wrong with the file system and the installer can't see the root drive to install to. A Google search returns numerous results affecting various products and the recurring theme is that something is wrong with the disk. There are many recommendations from various sources, but nothing definitive.
Here's a similar thread over on the Apple forums:
Broken Installer Permissions | Apple Support Communities
And a similar older one:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1203509
I would try the following options:
Try using the PKG installer. This is used Mac SysAdmins to install Flash Player within their organization and uses a slightly different installer path, which may or may not work.
Some people have had success with disk and permissions repair some have not. You can try running a disk and permissions repair. After the disk and permissions repair is complete, reboot the system and try to install again using either the online installer (get.adobe.com/flashplayer) or the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
If these options do not work, I'd reach out to Apple support to see if they have a suggestion. If you do find a resolution to this, please let me know. I'll be happy to share it with people that encounter the problem in the future.

User Uploaded Image won't display on Mac OSX
I am experiencing something very strange with user uploaded
images on Mac OSX, latest Debug Flash Player 9, Safari and Firefox
2. Everything works fine on Windows (XP and Vista) on all major
browsers.
A user selects a local image to upload. The file gets
uploaded to server, resampled, saved to a public location, and a
response is sent back to the Flash Player in the form of a JSON
object. The response contains the URL to the uploaded image on the
server. The Flash Player downloads the image and adds the Loader to
a sprite that is already on the stage. All appropriate events are
fired. The progress events show that the image is downloading, and
the complete and init events are both fired. Using the Charles Web
debugging Proxy I can verify that everything is working correctly
(upload and download), and no security violations are occuring.
Charles even shows the actual image that gets downloaded. However,
on Mac, the image doesn't display (stays blank, as if it's an empty
sprite), whereas on PC/Windows the image displays fine.
I have placed a crossdomain file in the appropriate location
- even though it is never requested as I don't try to do anything
with the image's bitmap data.
Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to create a new project
to test this out in, but will do as soon as I can, and post a link.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Shaun.We had a similar problem, maybe it is related to this (it was
done in as2, but the real problem was outside flash)
flash took an enormous time to display thumbs for a gallery
of images.. and directly in ff on osx, the thumb (about 100x100 px)
would load only half way.. and again wait for about half a minute
or more.. and then display. In flash the thumb would remain blank
until the loading was over.. that is for about half a minute or
more.
What this turned out to be, was that the php script on the
server somehow returned header information that the image had the
dimensions of the full-sized image. So after all the data for the
thumb downloaded, the client (browser or flash) would just wait
until a predefined timeout..
Since you are resizing uploaded images I thought this could
be one of the possible reasons, maybe the flash player for osx and
for windows handle such "missing data" cases differently. -
Font Sampler for Mac OSX is a small freeware utility to help you view your fonts. Font Sampler allows you to view all your fonts in one big list. It supports different colors of backgrounds and text, size, your own custom phrase to view the fonts in, and the ability to underline the fonts.
http://dotsw.com/fontsampler.htmlI can understand why they make it look like that, but the older versions are free, it's just the new pre-release that actually requires it, you can skip the donation here...

Opening Sony DVD in Mac OSX 10.6.4
opening Sony DVD in Mac OSX 10.6.4
Have a Sony recorder made DVD+R I want to open on Mac. and edit in iMovie. I can open DVD on PC and on TVs but not Mac. Told I need a plug in but do not know what or how or where to get?? Any ideas? I do not know how to figure out the format or file type of the DVD+R. ThanksDoes it specify what plug in you need?
A good all-around plug in is Perian (you can find it at Perian.org) and it enables QuickTime to play most formats.
Another option for opening video files is VLC player (videolan.org/vlc); it has never failed to play any video file I've thrown at it.
These will get it to play, but you may need to convert the videos to something iMovie can use, namely mp4.
You can try iSquint- it was originally designed for converting files to use on the ipod, but you can also use it to convert files for imovie and a bunch of other formats. It isn't being updated anymore, but it's a good, easy, application.

I have a IMac - Mac OSX version 10.4 and présently i see only verticals lines on my desktop and my mouse, i mean the arrow and still mouving but with a little square with vertical lines at the right. This appened when i was talking with a friend on Skype, by error i did click on the video and slowly the vertical lines appeared and covered all ma desktop. Since then, it still there and the only things i see it is the vertical lines and the arrow with the little square.
How can i fix this problem ?

Comment corriger le problème ? Merci à l'avance.
Réjeanne BlouinHello, sounds like Video card and/or heat problems.
Have you blown the dust out lately? Let it cool for an hour or so.
Get Temperature Monitor to see if it's heat related...

One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode). -
Mac OSX 10.8.2,Lightroom4,glitch/bug?
I will try to explain this as simply as possible. With Lightroom 2, running Mac OSX 10.8.2, I could insert a CF card into my connected card reader and Lightroom2 would open and open TO the import window. Now with Lightroom4, this doesn't happen. Lightroom DOES open, but not to the import window. It opens to the last session I was in, in Lightroom4. "Show Import Window When a Memory Card is Detected" IS checked in my preferences.
I read the identical description of this problem today that someone else posted in an Adobe users forum. (See http://www.lightroomforums.net/archive/index.php/t-14722.html) Is this a "bug", or something that can be repaired now?
Any feedback welcome. BTW, I spent 2hours with Adobe "experts" who didn't understand what I was asking. I don't know an easier way to explain it than when I put my CF card in my card reader I want LR4 to open up with the import dialog window. Simple as that. It did in LR2, why not LR4?
Thanks VERY much.After working on this case with a senior apple tech firstly I have to say I'm very impressed with their ownership and support. We've narrowed the problem down to the USB 3.0 Hub. I've replaced it with a Belkin 7 port powered USB 2.0 HUB F5U237 rev 3 and I can now switch frequencies all day long if I like Now I dont know if the problem is related to this particular Targus Hub or the Macbook Pro's USB 3.0? I'd still like this resolved as I'd like to be able to use the USB 3.0 Hub for HDD USB 3.0

Mac OSx Inventory Agent (followup)
Hi guys,
First I want to wish a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all you guys on the forum :)
Second:
I had the chance to work with the Mac OSx Inventory Only Agent and it didnt impress me much. Maybe some of you guys can help me change my mind ;)
Here's what I have so far. After doing some tests couple months ago I found how to personalize the Agent .PKG so that the Inventory would be installed unatented ( without entering the ZENworks server ip or DNS manually on each machine). So, when the package is run, the Inventory Only run according the Schedule, noting wrong here.
For a reason I ignore, it seems like none of the changes made on those MAC are taken by the agent and sent to the ZENworks server. For instance, I did the Snow Leopard (10.6) update on my laptop (MacbookPro) which owns the MacOSx Inventory agent since june.
When I checked back the invetory data with the reports tool on the ZENworks server, the data wasnt updated...and never will.
Same thing happened when I change the name of a MacMini tha owns the Inventory Agent. His name wasnt updated on the server info.
Finally, it seems like none of the change made on any MacOSx workstations are taken by the agent and sent to the server. Thats not very usefull when you relly on this inventory agent to get an global idea of your network assets.
I know the MacInventory is not Novell priority but, why provide us a MacOSx agent, when it doesnt do his job the way it should?
Anyway, maybe one of you guys had better luck, just let me know here !!!

Mac OSX 10.5.7 Leopard can not detect webcam
