Mac G4 OSX DAQ problems

I am attempting to run LabVIEW 7.0 on a mac G4 with OSX (10.3). I downloaded the newest NI-DAQ driver DAQmx 1.4 and installed it. I have a PCI-6025E board installed in the machine.
NI-DAQmx Base Config recognizes the PCI board and allows me to configure it.
If I attempt to run in the Classic environment,the NI-DAQ Configuration Utility does not recognize the board. I cannot therefore configure and use channels.

Why are you trying to run under the classic environment? LabVIEW 7 is an OS X app, and I believe the same is true for the new DAQmx drivers. It does not surprise me that you would have problems communicating with hardware between OS X and the classic environment as hardware is abstracted from the "TrueBlueEnvironment". You would need a classic version of the DAQmx drivers. Do you have any trouble accessing your hardware from the native environment?

    Hi, I am having a little trouble with exporting images to another drive and Catalogue and need some help if anyone can give me some advice
    I am currently using Lightroom 5.6 and operating on a Mac with OSX Ver 10.9.5.
    I am receiving an error problem when doing the following -
    I am exporting selected photos from a particular Catalogue saved on Drive 1 to a folder created on another Drive where a Lightroom Catalogue has been created. In this Catalogue I have arranged for the images once exported to be moved to a different folder - I used the Auto Import process under the File dialogue box.
    When processing the Export I receive an error message for each of the images being exported indicating the following -
    Heading Import Results
    Some import operations were not performed
    Could not move a file to requested location. (1)
    then a description of the image with file name
    Box Save As                                  Box  OK
    If I click the OK button to each image I can then go to the other Catalogue and all images are then transferred to the file as required.
    To click the OK button each time is time consuming, possibly I have missed an action or maybe you can advise an alternative method to save the time in actioning this process.
    Thanks if you can can help out.

    Thank You, but this is a gong show. Why is something that is so important to us all so very, very difficult to do?

  • PSE 8  Licensing problem on Mac with OSX 10.8.4

    Hi,
    Trying to edit some Aperture pics with my PSE 8 on my Mac with OSX 10.8.4 the following messge appeared: 
    Then found I could not open PSE independently of Aperture (version 3.4.5) - and kept getting the same message each time.
    Not sure of the current state of my PSE 8 but my Applications Folder shows me the following:
    So far as I am aware my PSE * has been kept fully updated using the Mac's automatic updater.
    I have had this PSE * since new, just after its first appearance and registered it with Adobe immediately.
    It has worked fine but my latest experience may be the first time of use since updating to Mac OSX 10.8.4. Not sure.

    Barbara B,
    Thanks for your response to my cry for help. I do not understand what is going on with this "Licensing has stopped working..." business but I have tried to implement the solutions you offered without any success. My attempts are detailed below:
    Solution 1: Could not find FlexNet Publisher folder by the method shown.
    Solution 2:
    Found and deleted the Flexnet Publisher folder.
    Downloaded the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool ( = LicenseRecovery 111.dmg)
    Run License Service Update (bearing in mind this is intended for MacOSX 10.7 and not 10.8 which is my system), as follows:
    Double clicked  this 111.dmg to get Volume (folder) LicenseRecovery 11.6.1 and opened the folder to locate LicenseRecoveryLauncher.
    Got to Terminal and opened it.
    Typed sudo python with end space and dragged LicenseRecoveryLauncher app      in and hit Return.
    (Was not sure at all what was meant by the" path to the APP file").           
    Text and Password: appeared. I tried to enter my password but the screen remained totally unresponsive.
    I hit return and tried to enter my password again - but no characters appeared as before. Hit Return and text appeared seeming to indicate some error. (I have no idea what is going on - the use of Terminal is totally strange to me.)
    Cleared all from terminal using Edit and tried all this a second time with the same result. A screen shot is attached.
    Hence had to abandon Solution 2.
    At this point I saw the further solutions and decided I was not competent to use these and so suspended my attempt to get my Photoshop Elements 8 running again while I consulted Adobe further for a more user friendly approach.
    I do not know if there is any other approach you can offer to make my PSE8 come to life again which does not involve a more detailed knowledge of computer management than I possess but I should like to know, in simple terms just what has gone wrong with my PSE8 that stops me using it.
    Could you please answer my questions below?
    Is the "Licensing" thing a problem with Adobe or with Apple or with a third party?
    If the License is something issued by Adobe on original purchase, cannot Adobe simply issue me with a new license?
    Do I have to buy a later version of PSE in order to use it again - and if so what guarantees do I have that the same problem will not arise in a few years' time?
    Best regards,
    Reg Phillips

  • Switched over to Mac and having MAJOR problems with Powerbook G4

    Hello,
    I'n the interest of not having to post many threads and to save bandwidth I will post my problems on one single thread so that you can address each issue.
    1) The adapter cord that plugs in to my Powerbook usually has a bright "yellow" light on the endge of the cord when plugged in. Recently the color changed to bright "orange" should I be concerned and is this a sign of something bad to come?
    2) When I press the power button "sometimes" the screen goes grey. I press the button, hear the chime, screen goes grey with a world logo that keeps flashing at limbo preventing me from getting in to the computer system. Why is this happening and how do I correct it?
    3) Select the Apple Icon on the top and go to Mac OSx software, IE Explorer loads and then FREEZES evertything on the system. It's as though it's crashing from the onset.
    4) At any given time while I'm searching through files or surfing the net a ridiculous littl ball appears in the shape of a rainbow that essentially locks my ENTIRE SYSTEM. I cannot click on any Icon or do much of anything. Forced to sit and helplessly look at this stupid object with no directive as to what to do. I can't even shut down my system in safe mode because it won't let me access the Apple Icon on the top menu. At last resort I have to HOLD DOWN THE POWER BUTTON for 10 seconds just to shut it down.
    5) How can you retrieve files deleted by accident or do a system restore like you can in Windows? No disks came with my computer so I'm hoping that there is a button to click that can reverse actions and bring back system to an earlier time. I'm sure that Apple must have thought about this as people are going to make many mistakes and will need immediate and non complex recourse in restoring files and the system in general. I changed Admin privilidges to myself and deleted the former Admin of my system, thinking that it would only delete the "name" but instead I suspect that the system deleted 5GB of files that the former Admin installed? Not sure. I have nothing in my trash can and the deleted files under former Admin are in the form of an "image" on my hard disk. I tried to open the deleted file by clicking on the Icon and it's telling me "DISK IMAGE FAILED TO MOUNT no mountable file system. This is very frustrating as I need to see what files have been deleted and restore those that I need. I have OFFICE MAC X suite that now I can't locate and yesterday I downloaded the Opera browser and turned on the Mac this morning only to find that it to is gone.
    Now granted Windows is a headache in itself but I never imagined that I would be going through all this madness with a Mac. Everyone spoke so highly of them and I'm finding out different from first hand experience. Hopefully, you can help me resolve the above issues as I'm feeling very frustrated with this computer.

    Hi again,
    You definitely need to purchase some replacement disks for your computer. Just from hard shutdowns via the powerbutton can do system file damage and you need to Repair Dick using the install disk.
    From your reply I would suggest obtaining a good Mac OSX users book such a one of the David Pogue books etc. You can find any number of them online for your OS. The learning of the Mac OS can be somewhat confusing for a switcher from PC and Microsoft OS's. I was somewhat lucky in that when I first started using computers I learned on a Mac so I never had any relearning curve to deal with. I think you will find if you stick with your Mac and OSX that you will learn to love it compared to PC's.
    I can assure you that Apple did not drop the ball when it came to the PowerBooks as evident by it being one of the most succesful of all Mac notebook computers.....there are many many happy users still of PowerBooks. There is a specific forum here in Discussions for Powerbook computers that may help you with certain issues.
    re: "I went ahead and downloaded my favorite browser Opera for the second time, since it disappeared yesterday after I restarted my machine. Hopefully, I will find it on the Doc the next time I start my system."
    Once you download an app to your Mac you will need to place it in your HD/Applications folder. From there you can simply drag it's alias to the Dock or click open the app and then when the icon appears in the Dock click on its icon in the Dock once and hold and from its pop up contextual menu select "Keep In Dock". Applications do not automatically stay in the Dock.
    I am not sure I follow your description of the problem of the lost 5GB of files that were on some sort of Disk Image and how you are trying to retrieve them for me to be able to help. If you have deleted the files they are gone on your computer and you will need to use a third party software to recover them (DataRescue is one such utility but these are expensive softwares and can have varying results with file recovery). If you know the name of any of the missing files you can do a search using the finders search field (double click on your HD icon and then use its search field upper right) to make sure that the files are indeed not on your HD anymore.
    I also wanted to suggest when using the command +option + escape key combination to force quit a process sometimes may take a couple or a few tries to get it to work sometimes (at least that has been my experience). Did you read through Dr. Smoke's FAQ concerning the SBBOD?
    In the end you will need to learn common system maintenance for your OS to function properly such as Repairing Permissions via Disk Utility and running the cron maintenance (daily, weekly and monthly) tasks which can be done manually or by downloading a third party freeware utility such as MacJanitor to help do this easily. One of the biggest reasons to have your install disks is this is how you will need to repair the disk for system corruption among other problems. This can only be done with OS 10.3.9 by using the install disk and booting to its DiskUtility.
    I hope these tips help a little more and do post back with further questions,

  • My Adobe Flash CS6 Color Picker has ODD colors. I'm using Mac Mini OSX 10.8.1. Is there a fix?

    My Adobe Flash CS6 Color Picker has ODD colors. I'm using Mac Mini OSX 10.8.1. Is there a fix?
    I click on the color picker and where I have seen the normal #0000ff blue color on my windows computer, this mac Mountain lion version shows a purple-ish color. Oddly, If I enter the hex # into the color picker, and use it as a fill, the correct color displays on the stage but when i use the eyedropper on that color, it shows it as the purple color again on the toolbar.
    I've seen a similar thing like this happen when using adobe photoshop. However, the usual solution is to just make the managed color profile set to monitor RGB. The only downside with Flash is there is no preference to set that. The color palette in Adobe Photoshop displays as it should with the correct blue.
    I should also note that I'm using a Samsung 941bw monitor with my mac mini which could also be part of the problem.
    I figured i'd make this post anyway just in case it's the OS & Adobe Flash CS6 and not the monitor.
    I've included a screenshot as well that shows that i've chosen the purple color and then made a rectangle shape on the stage and it comes out blue.
    Thanks ahead for your response(s)
    -Line

    Seems misleading that on the adobe site for Adobe Flash CS6 it says:
    System requirements:
    Mac OS X v10.6.8 or v10.7. Adobe Creative Suite 5, CS5.5, and CS6 applications support Mac OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8) when installed on Intel based systems.**

  • It's old but my favorite Power Mac G5 OSX 10.5.8

    How can i get and use iCloud for my Power Mac G5 OSx 10.5.8 ?  Since Mobile Me no longer exist now my system needs access to Mobile Me in order for the DVD drive to operate.
    To date what resources I have keeps telling me that since my G5 Apple is so old that I will not be able to gain control of my DVD unit in my Apple Power Mac G5.
    I brought out my old G5 out of storage, it's been over five years since I last used it.  Past five years have been using a PC computer with windows 8.1 on it because of the amount of problems I decided to get my old Apple computer out.  The problem is my Apple computer a G5, dual processor is the old Apple processor it is not an Intel processor.  The fact that I really hate Microsoft operating systems.  I assume that because everyone is or has gone to Intel processor's this means that Apple has decided to forget all those Apple Power Mac's out there.  To bad because of this my next new computer will not be an Apple.
    Reason Apple with intel based processors  use software to per say settle down the Apple computer.  The program a couple of them do allow the Newer Apple desk top Pro's to run Microsoft Windows, but keep in mind when ever a computer use's a software program to simulate so that your computer can use Microsoft windows that software program really restricts Apple.  Again your Apple powermac doesn't use windows directly.  These day's everything' based on a computer that uses Intel Processor's.  Apple's user's can not download any files, games or what ever on their Old Apple computer.
    Again  my Apple pro is not an intel based machine, so now  what it sound like I'd better off.  NO!!!!!.  Nobody tells me I can't use any apple book on there operating.
    Now am I stuck with an old G5 unit least till x-number of years

    Since Mobile Me no longer exist now my system needs access to Mobile Me in order for the DVD drive to operate.
    Hello,
    I'm using a G5 right now with 10.4.11 & 10.5.8, the DVD drive works fine, what exactly is the problem with yours?

  • Mac Mini OSX 10.6.5 config w/ cable/modem-AEBS-mac mini server

    I'm new to OSX server, and have recently had to change locations of a OSX 10.6.5 Mac Mini. I am setting it up now as a home server and need to access from outside the home. I have had a wonderfully operating AEBS for many years, but once I started trying to set-up the mac mini server, I started having problems configuring the server to play nicely with the AEBS.
    Back to basics, because for what I need the AEBS is sufficient (and technically capable) of acting in concert with my mini server (from all I've read, anyway). I just cannot configure them correctly without causing problems.
    Equipment:
    AEBS w/ version 7.4.1
    Mac Mini OSX 10.6.5
    iMac OSX 10.6.5
    (2) MacBook Pros 10.6.5
    (2) iPhones IOS 4.2
    I have a static (known) IP from my ISP. I have no problem with configuring the AEBS to work with everything, until I plug in the mac mini. I realize the older configuration for the prior server set-up is incorrect, but making minor adjustments for moving to a AEBS from the Cisco UC500 set-up has been greater than my technological experience.
    I am versed in networking, but cannot seem to get the correct configuration, and the only thing the Apple manuals have is a 'possibility' this can be done, but no specifics I can find for controlling the AEBS settings from the mac mini when connected on the LAN port of the AEBS (that's when the problems start).
    Here's where I've tried and cannot access the Serv Admin program when I connect the mac mini to the AEBS LAN port:
    (1) changed AEBS Connection sharing to Share a public ip address
    (which I understand makes "advanced" "port mapping" possible)
    (2) set AEBS Internet connection to connect to router on 192.168 network
    (3) set AEBS to offer DHCP in 10.0.1 range
    (4) set AEBS capsule own address to be 10.0.1.1
    PLUG in ethernet cable to Mac Mini and Time Capsule
    Activate Ethernet and deactivate Airport
    (5) set Mac Mini Server Manual ip address to 10.0.1.2
    (6) set Mac Mini Server DNS addresses to 127.0.0.1, 10.0.1.1
    (7) set Mac Mini Server / Server Admin / DNS / Zones / Machine name / IP Address = 10.0.1.2
    Any advice on where to start trouble-shooting?

    The AEBS gets your public static IP address, and otherwise performs NAT.
    (The AEBS is a good home box, but not a server-grade firewall. I do run AEBS and Time Capsule boxes, but these are generally operated as WiFi Access Points (what Apple calls "bridging"), and not as WiFi routers, and definitely not as server gateways.)
    The AEBS DHCP server configuration for DNS services is set with the IP address of your new server; that's your DNS server now. Caution: +There are no references to ISP DNS nor other DNS servers.+ You're running DNS (well, you will be soon), so your local network will be configured differently than a client network.
    Your Mac Mini Server is configured in a /24 subnet in one of the private blocks (eg: 10.0.0.0/8) somewhere. This for future VPNs, as everything on the planet is crammed in a few 192.168.0.0/16 subnets.
    The AEBS DHCP server can be used to pass out a pool of addresses in that private /24, but the server must have a static IP address.
    [Get your DNS services going for your LAN now.|http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1436] Don't skip this step. DNS is essential to servers, and you'll be serving DNS on your LAN. I'd suggest a real and registered domain here or a subdomain of a real and registered domain, as changing domain names on a network is an increasing pain in the rump as the network scales up.
    For DNS services, your Mac Mini (and only your Mac Mini) will refer only to itself via the 127.0.01 on its network controller. (This is an odd case; the box is referring to itself, so it's the IP loopback address and not your LAN static IP address.) Everything else on your LAN will refer to the static IP address of your Mac Mini DNS server either via static configuration, or via the AEBS DHCP server's DNS setting referencing your Mac Mini server that are received from the DHCP server with a dynamic address.
    Work your way up to configuring Open Directory (LDAP), and Kerberos, then configure the rest of the accouterments.

  • Hi I installed a new hard drive in my Mac mini osx lion an when I turn it on I get a flashing file with a question mark. I tried holding command and R keys when turning it on but the recovery fails to work. Does any one know how I can get it to recover?

    Hi I installed a new hard drive in my Mac mini osx lion an when I turn it on I get a flashing file with a question mark. I tried holding command and R keys when turning it on but the recovery fails to work. I can hold the option key at start up and choose my network, then Internet recovery shows up with an arrow pointing up. When I click on the arrow Internet recovery fails and all I get is a globe with a triangle on it with an exclamation mark on it, and under that it says
    apple.com/support
          -6002F
    Does any one know how I can fix this without a recovery disc? Thanks

    I just want to add to this, in case someone else searches for this error on Apple Support (google doesnt cover apple support.. how clever is that?)
    I had the same error. And i had a Computer that had worked, with a SSD drive and 16GB upgrade done by the owner himself.
    I tried swapping with a Mechinal Harddrive, no luck.
    Kept the Mechanical drive in, and tried with some other Ram, it worked..
    So for me this error and after reading the other responses can be boiled down to a Harddrive problem or Ram issue.
    It was Ram for me..

    Hello, I use MAC AIR OSX 10.6.8 and have Adobe CS2, that I was using 2 years ago on my older computer. I stopped using it because it would close down in the middle of work. Now I would like to reinstall it on the MacAir but I can not get it working. It tells Adobe doesnT support my System. But I can not update my old version or activate it. What can I do?

    The mac you want to install photoshop cs2 on is running mac os x 10.6.8 Snow Leopard?
    (photoshop cs2 won't run on intel macs with mac os x newer than snow leopard)
    Did you ever have cs2 installed on this particular computer before?
    If the problem is that you already installed cs2, but it won't activate, that's because adobe took the activation servers offline for some older adobe products such as cs2.
    You'll need to use the non activation version of cs2 from here and the supplied serial number:
    Activation server shut down for Creative Suite 2, Acrobat 7, and Macromedia products

  • 10.3.9  on my G5 to 10.4.2 from my Mac Mini OSX Installer DVD

    Hi everyone,
    Here is my situation. I have a G5 currently running 10.3.9 which is my main computer for all my work. I purchased a Mac Mini not too long ago as a back up/special task computer that runs 10.4.2.
    I just purchased Techtool Pro 4, and it requires 10.4 as a requirement.
    What I would like to do is use my Mac Mini OSX 10.4.2 install disc to put 10.4.2 onto my G5. Does anyone think this would cause a problem because the disc came with and says it's for the Mac Mini? I don't know all that much about these new operating systems, so I apologize in advance if this is a really dumb question. Any insight would be greatly appreciated, as I would love to get the Tech Tool up and running on my G5. Thanks in advance for all your help.
    PA Chris
    G5/ Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   G5 runs OSX 10.3.9- Mac Mini runs 10.4.2

    Several reasons why this is not possible.
    If your Mini has an Intel processor, the OS X install package that shipped with the Mini cannot be used on a Mac with a PPC processor but regardless, the install package that ships with a new Mac purchase is model and build specific and cannot be used to install OS X on another Mac.
    Even if this were possible, it would be a violation of the single use license agreement.
    If you want to install Tiger on your G5, you need to purchase a Tiger retail install package which can be used to install Tiger on any Mac model that meets the minimum system requirements for Tiger.

  • 2014 mac mini dual monitor problem

    I just brought a mac mini (Late 2014) i have two displays monitors connected, one HDMI to DVI. and one thunderbolt to DVI. I can have both thunderbolts connected and the problem its the same, when back from sleep ,one monitor doesn't turn on. i have to disconnect one and then both work, it only happens when the mac goes to sleep. on cold restart or turning the mac on, this problem doesn't occur. any help.

    I have this same problem too. I purchased the Mac Mini with the intention of running dual monitors. I'm using the HDMI and mini-display/Thunderbolt to DVI. I've also tried MiniDisplay/Thunderbolt to HDMI and I'm experiencing the same problem as angelfromfullerton. Whenever it tries to wake from sleep, it can't decide on monitor arrangement and keeps flicking between the two, making the OS unusable and forcing a reboot... EVERY TIME. I've also experienced the issue once or twice on a cold boot. It doesn't matter which Thunderbolt port is used either.
    I'm going to have to return my Mac Mini unless this problem is fixed asap.
    Mac Min, OSX Yosemite (10.10).

  • Just got a new imac and my iwork software wont work. I have the serial numbers but after migrating from my old mac running OSX tiger it won't even give me that opportunity. I do not have any discs as this was downloaded. Help

    Just got a new imac and my iwork software wont work. I have the serial numbers but after migrating from my old mac running OSX tiger it won't even give me that opportunity. I do not have any discs as this was downloaded. Help

    Hi, hopefully you guys can help me out, I just
    purchased a G5 iMac to replace my aging dell desktop,
    and now i'm more or less completely os x dependant
    (I've had an ibook for a few months now). Anyway, I
    have a few questions:
    1. Does anyone know of a (free) mail notifier tool,
    that will alert me when I recieve new pop3 mail? I
    used to use AIM for this in windows
    The built in email program does sound an alert for new messages.
    2. Anyone know of a good (free, again) IRC client?
    iChat works well.
    3. I noticed earlier that my screen was flickering,
    it seems to have subsided for now, but is that normal
    to encounter in a new display? It wasn't really bad
    flicker, but I could see it.
    No idea.
    4. I leave my desktops on 24/7x365, will that be a
    problem with this iMac? Display shuts off of course
    after 30 mins
    You could set the iMac to go to sleep after non use. My Macs are
    always sleeping when not in use, waking them up takes seconds.
    Unlike windoze, never knew if it would be locked up or not.
    5. Should I get the extended warranty? I'm usually
    against them, but I am expecting this computer to
    last me at least 3 years (for $1300 it better!)
    before I upgrade, as I got that much out of a Dell
    and from what I understand, Mac's do not age nearly
    as fast as Windows pc's.
    It is well worth the cost. Never know what might happen. Also
    it is good insurance for future upgrades. I traded in my G4 tower
    purchased two years ago for 75% of what I paid for it. Apple care
    transfers, giving the buyer the remainder of your warranty.
    Thank you for any help,

  • What can I do to start back up in Mac Leopard OSX?

    What can I do to start back up in Mac Leopard OSX?
    My Original Purpose: Partition Mac HD to original state after installing Windows XP via BootCamp Because I wasn't using XP. To do this I know I have to Boot from Leopard install disc to access Disc Utility to Re-Partition hard drive.
    Action Taken: Insert Leopard install Disc, went to System Preference> Startup>Selected Leopard Install Disc.
    Problem: Install Disc ejected while switching to Windows XP(+failing optical drive+). Then I received Lock asking for Root password. Unable to remember root. Would change root if I could boot from startup disc but unable to at this point. So I shut down by holding power button, rebooted holding down "c", now I'm getting folder with question mark in it. Searched Post here, found out that external drive can be used, but it has to be firewire. Pull out external LaCIE external DVD, insert Leopard install disc, Held down "c", only get gray screen. No lock, no folder with question mark it.
    What can I do to start back up in Mac OSX? I've read post here on but nothing specific to problems i'm having. Don't wanna waste anyone time, but if you could just paste a link on my post or reply if this message isn't clear. Thank You.

    On start up is there any key commands that I can use to get me back to Mac OSX instead of inputing root password on screen?

    I am using Mac OSX 10.10.1 (memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, graphics Nvidia GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB)
    and my version of Photoshop is CC.
    I ran into  the same problem: I am able to place and view Blur Gallery pins but the adjustment wheel or outer control arounf the pin that allows you to tweak the blur value disappeared after being initially available. Additionally, the placed pin or pins appear to flicker on screen (while in blur gallery mode) until committing the change with the OK button. I have tried restarting both the computer and Photoshop, as well as what some other users have suggested such as View>Show>Edit pins turned on. Nothing has helped so far. I am still able to adjust the blur amount  from the Blur Tools slider. thank you.
