Lost Remote Sharing Connection When Installing iWork, Now it Won't Install

Hi everyone,
I have a new Macbook Air and I was installing iWork on it remotely from my iMac. Everything was working fine and then my iMac went to sleep in the middle of the install. This then stopped the remote sharing and the installation of iWork on my Macbook Air.
Now, when I restart and try and install, it isn't working. It only goes so far and then just hangs for a really long time. It gets to the 'Installation' section and then just says 'Waiting for other installations to complete'. Obviously there are no other installations happening, but it won't move past this point.
Does anyone know if there's any way of getting it to work, or if there's something it's part put on the Macbook Air that I should delete to get this to work?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Tracy

Deleting Boot Camp partitions the conventional way will not work . You must use the Boot Camp Assistant to remove a Boot Camp partition. Here is a link to the guide.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup_10.6.pdf
The way to restart is to hold down the option/alt key during startup* and then selecting the Mac OS. If you have a valid Boot Camp install of Windows it would show up during this type of start up.
* hold down immediately after pressing the power button and until the OS choice screen appears.
To summarize.
1 Use the above method to boot into Mac OS.
2 Download the instructions and read them.
3 Use Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition.
4 Pick your friends more carefully.

Delete and recreate your settings in the Network preference pane. If you're connecting to a wireless network, also delete the AirPort network password(s) in the Keychain Access application.

How to deal with a shared network connection when installing 10 EX

I am in the process of setting up a Virtual PC XP environment on my Vista Business machine to load Oracle EX in the virtual environment. I am having an issue of receiving a shared network connection with my broadband wireless card within the virtual XP SP3 environment, which Internet access is required for the Oracle EX installation. I checked out a couple tech sites and could not find a solution. I might have to get an Internet access at home from TWC.
How to resolve this conflict? Thanks.

I am not sure how +"I am having an issue of receiving a shared network connection with my broadband wireless card within the virtual XP SP3 environment"+ can be resolved on an Oracle forum? There are probalby Windows experts on the forum but I would personally aim for a Windows forum.
You may want to double check if Oracle XE is even running in a Virtual PC environment before starting this exercise.

Lost Cd Rom - prompt when install update

I've got a 6500Slide and had the PC suite installed on my desktop.
I tried updating the software the other day at the prompt for new updates being available.
Got as far as the wizard asking me to insert the CDrom that came with the phone, which I now can't find :-(
Got stuck there - I've uninstalled the software & tried from scratch downloading it again to install but everytime I get stuck at the prompt asking me for the CDrom.
Help! Is there a way I can download & install the software for my phone without the CDrom that I've lost?
Cheers

You should not need the cd to install latest pcsuite. I suggest you remove previous installl and clean using pcsuite cleaner before downloading latest version and reinstalling.
PCSuite Cleaner can be downloaded from

I lost my internet connection after installing Safari 5.1.2.

iMac 20" running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 After allowing Software Update to install the newest version of Safari , 5.1.2, I no longer have connection through Safari, Mail or Software Update.The problem is not with the ISP as a laptop plugged into the same cable works fine. Would the update have changed any settings in Network preferences?

You can use Lion Recovery to reinstall apps.

Problem with iphoto 09 (lost all faces/locat) when installing Snow leopard

Hi,
Before updating to the new snow leopard I did a back up using time machine so I am safe with regards to all photos I have. I first use to use Aperture 2 but found it not useful and when Iphoto 09 came I bought it and imported all photos from Aperture library to iphoto.
I then spent days and days updating the face recognition and also updated the locations on all photos, I have about 10000 photos so it took a while..Then I made a back up with everything and updated to the new snow leopard. Now all my faces and locations are gone. The photos are still in the old aperture library but I really do not want to spend another 3 days or so updating all the faces again.
Also one small issue, I am not able to update my aperture to version 2.1.4 as when I click on aperture it says you have version 2.1 and it is not compatible with snow leopard. tried to download the 2.1.4 but that also does not allow me to update...
Any idea on what to do??

What do you see in the iPhoto Window?
tried to download the 2.1.4 but that also does not allow me to update...
Where is Aperture? All the Apple apps need to be where the installer puts them. In the case of Aperture that's loose in the Applications Folder, not in a sub-folder and not anywhere else.

I had to uninstall Firefox (SpeedBrowser would load when I opened), now Firefox won't install after several hours of loading. Is there a setting I need to fix

I tried several times to install Firefox. I have Win7 and it wont install.

Hello yolanda.alexa, you have to uninstall the SpeedBrowser from your windows programs, go from Start/Windows > Control Panel > Uninstall a program > right-click any related to Speed Browser > Uninstall.

Lost all iCal data when installing isync

I tried a trial .mac account and lost all of my iCal info.. I know this happened through the sycronize process... Is there any way to revert this disaster?

I have just had the same arroying experience. I had mobileme and iCal on laptop working fine. Could see calendars in both. Then got iPhone 3G and it synch'ed the calendars to it fine. Went and stupidly upgraded to 2.0.1 and low and behold come to use iCal on G4 laptop (leoprd 10.5.4) and have no calendars. Look on mobile me - no calandars....eeek. Look at iPhone - still there - sighs with relief - assumes can restore to iCal on mac - wrong. Doesn't work. Odd. So read a few posts on here and someone recommended going into settings and turning off calendar syching in mobileme account. BAD move. Gave me the option of turning off calendars when I did that - turning off mind...not removing...so I said OK (surely they would say if this was going to delete them)....then turned back on....silly me. Boom! the iPhone synched with mobileme and replaced the good calendars with no calendars. So I've managed to remove all cals from all places - quite an achievement. Thanks Apple.
Any ideas how I go about restoring the calendars?

Lost display resolution options when installing 10.4.6 with 20" monitor

I recently installed an upgrade using black retail DVD 10.4.6 from 10.2.8, and now i only have one option for display resolution (256 colors). The screen is gray??? I can restart using 9.2 Classic and the screen display is just fine (thousands & millions of colors). I did the disk utility and permission fix prior to and before installation. I also updated the firmware. I tried to download 10.4.8 combo update, but the license agreement can't be 'agreed to' because the button will not appear on the low resolution screen. Do i have to initialize the whole disk? The Monitor is a 20" Display (the large blue monster). Since it was working with 10.2.8 and still works under 9.2 Classic reboot, i doubt whether its a hardware problem.. Any ideas?

I wonder if it could be the Voodoo5 Dfx video card that's bn not compatible with 10.4.8?? It workds with 10.2.

I cancelled my home sharing half way through and now it won't give me the option to transfer the rest of my songs over... help!

I am trying to transfer all my songs (1400 of them) from my old laptop to my new MacBook Pro. I thought I could just pop in my appleID and it would all appear! I have iTunes Match and thought that may help. None of this seemed to work, so I started the Home Transfer. Then it looked like my iTunes Match was allowing me to access my songs so I cancelled the Home Transfer. Now I'm stuck with only 349 of my songs but when I tried again, my old laptop only has that same 349 songs on the Home Sharing option too. So it seems I can't get the rest on!
I am not very techy and very confused!
Help!!

Why will it not let you add them? What specifically are you trying to do, please provide steps.
Frankly, the only thing that should need to be done it restore the iTunes folder from the backup onto the computer. There is no reason to add or import anything.

HT1369 Since we updated our Itunes to 10.7 we've had nothing but problems, first we lost all our music (luckily I was able to recover it) but now it won't find my phone when I plug it in. Has anyone else had this issue?

Has anyone out there been having any problems with Itunes since updating Itunes. First it lost all our music (which I recovered), now it won't find my phone when I plug it in.

I hate to say it, but Apple is literally infamous for teething problems on new releases. It's usually fixed in two days, though that fix usually gets fixed, too, so sometimes a week, but does means downloading new updates.
My (experienced) advice? Wait a couple of days, check for updates, try again. Pray (or whatever works for you) that you don't have the "lost Apple Device Driver" problem several people are having.
I keep an older version of iTunes installer on a backup drive (or just in my downloads folder), just for such events. Worst-case, I've always been able to uninstall iTunes (including driver and user info), then install my old version of iTunes and roll on. Yes, my iTunes folder is on an external hard drive, so I can move it around to my different computers, and then keep a backup of that hard drive on a second external hard drive. Saves me a ton of headaches.

I lost my connection when I was using internet and when I want to reconnect to airport it give me connection timeout error, I changed my password on router but still doesn't work. How can i fix my problem?

Hi,
I lost my airport connection when I was using internet and when I wanted to re-reconnect to airport it gave me connection timeout error, I changed my password on router but still doesn't work. How can i fix my problem?

Hello there hastibahreini,
It sounds like you were using your Wi-Fi network from your Airport base station and the connection cut out. You have reset the password on the device but the issue persists. I would try the 3 resets outlined in the following article in order to help resolve the issue. If it persists, is the Wi-Fi connection issue happening on more than one device or computer?
