MAC OSX 10.4.7 - iMAC Problems

Started having problems.. after update..
On 6/28 - Using the SW update feature the system noted 3 updates ready for download:
Aperture (1.1.2)
QuickTime (7.1.2)
MAC OSX (10.4.7)
I selected continue and went about my business. When I came back I was prompted for a restart, which I completed with out any discernable problem.
The following day - My "Bluetooth" mouse dropped out and I couldn't get it to work - though the mouse was bad - went and purchased a new wireless USB version.
It semed to work ok. Setup to use my wireles Keybd today and couldn't get it to work...
After many attempst and battery replacement - I started suspecting problems with the last update.
Thought I would check and see if there was a new update - by selecting "Software Update" under the Apple - it started to load and crashed.
A couple of repeat attempts had the same result.
Now I was sure that the last update had some how not been successful.
Went to Apple Support site and downloaded the "Combo". It reported "mounting failed" after it completed the download. Tried the "Delta" the same result.
Checked the Log files and found that the Aperture & Quicktime updates were logged - but not the 10.4.7 (on the 28th). Yet "About this Mac" says 10.4.7 is loaded???
I ran the DIsk Utility "repaired permissions" retried Software Update - same problem. Repaired permissions again (they were corrupted from the Software Update attempt) and tried the Delta again - still no success (mounting failed).
Anybody have a clue - what to do next??

Mac OSX 10.6.8 installation problems!

Hi Im using snow leopard 10.6.8 on my macbook pro. Im trying to install logic pro and also upgrade the OSX to Lion. Im getting the following message on Terminal

It installs logic pro but at the end it gives me an installation error. Someone stole my mac osx cd at school so im unable to reinstall or repair osx. In the disk utility it doesnt let me repair my disk. Some help would be much appreciated.

Shut down and reboot holding the Command + S keys. Allow the black screen with white text to fully load, then type fsck -yf and hit return. Wait until you see "Disk has been modified" or "Disk appears to be okay" then type reboot and hit return.

HP OfficeJet 4500 and MAC OSX 10.6.8 installation problem

I've recently bought a HP OfficeJet 4500 and I'm having problems with the Macintosh installation.
I'm on Intel Mac OS X 10.6.8 and I connected the printer to my iMac by using the USB cable.
The CD included with the printer is not readable, so I had to download the driver (OJ4500vG510a-f_Mac.dmg) from the HP website.
When I run the installer, the application is not able to recognize the device so no model is displayed in the list; then, I choose to continue the installation without specifying the model but when I have to do the configuration the installer is not able to find the correct device and so the setup procedure fails.
What I want is to use the printer wireless, so I think I should perform the configuration procedure and to specify that I want to use the Wi-Fi connection but I never reach this step because installer fails before.
I have to say that I successfully installed this printer on Windows XP and Windows 7 by downloading the drivers from the HP website and installing them without problems, but I'm not able to do the same thing with my Mac.
Can you help me, please?
What I have to do to get my printer work with my mac?

Hi,
I got the impression you are using the wrong software for your printer.
In order to get aligned, there are 3 sub models of the 4500 series:
HP Officejet 4500 Desktop (G510a) - Provide USB connectivity only. - The driver posted above intended for this model.
HP Officejet 4500 (G510g) - provide USB and Wired ethernet network connection
HP Officejet 4500 Wireless (G510n) - Provide USB and Wireless network connection,
As you mentioned the printer connected to the network, therefore I doubt if the correct driver has been used.
Above you may find a direct download link for both of the models
Simply click the model which identical to the one listed on the front of the printer,
Regards,
Shlomi

Reinstalling Mac OSX - will I have iPhone problems?

I'm preparing to zero out my iMac's HD and install Leopard. I've backed up all my files to an external HD, including the iPhone backup file and all my iTunes files.
Will I have any problems or issues the next time I connect my iPhone after the upgrade to Leopard?

There is always a possibility there will be a problem, but doubtful.
Having a backup of all your data including for the Address Book and iCal, you are covered.

Mac osX question regarding persistent LAN problem using Linksys router

We are eight months into this problem.
I had this up on the apple help board 6 months ago but could only get a band aid fix for the problem.
(The "band aid" is explained on the link below.)
We have since exhausted 3 other professional help folks.
We are using the WRT54GS ver. 5.
Before we were using BEFSx41 ver. 2 and we had same problem.
The full description of the problem can be found on this page...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9062933#9062933
ANY well thought out suggestions deeply appreciated.
Thanks.

Sorry dude, definitely sounds like a mac problem (i.e. editing the cnf files on mac s). Unless you are blocking a special service, which you probably aren't, then its definitely not the router. The reason I say that is all traffic gets transferred at layer 2 of the OSI model, in this case. IP addressing is layer 3 (router/network layer). Short answer is all traffic gets "switched" via mac address, not ip in this case. Your router here is more like a switch that provides dhcp and a default gateway to get to the internet. Any unknown mac (media access control, not mac/apple) traffic will get "routed" to the wan.

Mac osx 10.7.5 imac

So i have the imac desktop 21 inch the new one well got it this year.. i think... its my parents so..
anyway, i can only view safari in full screen, and it wont appear on the desktop as a normal size! how can i get it back to the normal size on the desktop?
also it is hooked up to the TV, but even when it is not, this fullscreen mode is the only way to view a safari window.. its been annoying me and my parents and i need a solution asap!
Thanks
Sara

Hi Sara,
I could see the solution, The issue is when you slide from full screen it looks like your menu bar is messed up.
First all try to reset Safari by going to Safari > Reset Safari (Please note this will affect your top sites and some other parts of safari including Bookmarks) and if you are worried of losing your safari data i suggest you to take backup of Safari here it's
On finder press ⌘ + Shift + G and paste this /Users/ACCOUNT-NAME-HERE/Library/Safari in the field and please replace “ACCOUNT-NAME-HERE” with your account name not the full name and select all the files from Safari in library then copy all the files make a folder in desktop name it Safari and than paste all the files into the desktop folder that is named safari.
Now your Safari data will be stored in Desktop and please make sure to quit safari when you're doing backup. Once you've backed up all files you need to reset the Safari in order to run normally.
To restore your Top Sites and Bookmarks just paste Bookmarks.plist and TopSites.plist (the one you copied to desktop) to /Users/ACCOUNT-NAME-HERE/Library/Safari don't paste all the files that is backed up and stored in Desktop just copy and paste only the Bookmarks.plist and TopSites.plist files into the Library directory.
Also you can follow this link in order to back up and restore Safari datas here http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/qt/safari-bookmarks-backup.htm if you are finding it hard.
If the above resets doesn't help you could try few commands below here
You will need to restart your Menu Bar to get work normally try the command in terminal
to restart MenuBar try this command:
killall SystemUIServer
and than
try to Re-launch the finder this command:
killall Finder
The above command will not affect any MenuBar item or finder item it will restart the item to run properly.
Hope the Safari resets and commands will help you to resolve this case and please let me know if those things has goes normally once you had tried the resets and commands.
Good Luck
Sulaiman.

EXC_BAD_ACCESS error when opening PS2 on Mac OSX 10.4-who's problem is it?

About three weeks ago I got an error message when trying to open PS2 which said
"Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xcde25b88"
So I called Apple Care-they replaced my hard drive. I get my Mac back last night and go to open PS and I now get this error message:
"Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000"
So do I call Apple again or is this an Adobe issue? Should I reinstall PS2? All the other parts of Creative Suite run just fine. I'm irritated and confused and sadly not really savvy enough to know what's going on. :-(
thanks in advance!

When Apple replaced your HD, did they or you, re-install the software that was on your old Drive?
If you made a clone of your old HD and copied it back, you probably brought back all of your old troubles with it!
I suggest that you remove CS2 entirely; then run Disk Warrior to repair all of your Dirctories and then do a fresh installation of CS2 from the original DVD.
Just be sure that you have saved any Actions and other personal Presets somewhere safely before trashing CS2.

Mac OSX 10.8.3 update problem

Ok, so I followed through with the OSX update (I have mountain lion) and let it do it's thing - came back to it hours later......STILL in the apple screen with rotating gear wheel thing....so I shut it down, power off. Then I restart it, it comes up with the same screen, this time with a grey progress bar.....and then 20 seconds later it shuts itself off. Now everytime I turn it on, it ends up shutting itself off....WHAT?! Anyone else having a similar or the same issue?! I'm so frusterated....anyone, help?? >_<

Mac OSX 10.4 visual displays problems with a 20 inch Symphonic telvision

I would like to use my tv as a monitor for my Mac (details in subject title), but I have been having some issues. To be perfectly honest, I am completely new to this subject on computers. On my Mac, I have 4 ports that I think I might be able to use. These are the TV OUT port, the S VID IN port, the yellow video in port, and the last one I dont know what it is called. (It has lines by it that turn in different directions with little circles on the end of them). My television only has the basic yellow video port and the two white and red audio ports. Is there any way I can connect my Mac to my tv?

Just found an email HP Support sent to me back in January 2008, about this issue
"Hello Hunter,
Thank you for contacting HP Total Care.
There currently is not proper driver for 10.5, so it is surprising that the printer is printing correctly on your Mac from any application.

After Effects CS3 / Mac OSX 10.5.4 / iMac / Importing CS3 Indesign file into CS3 After Effects

Hi,
I'm wanting to import a CS3 Indesign file into a CS3 After Effects file including all the layers. Is there a simpler way than importing it into Illustrator then dividing the layers then importing into After Effects?
Thanks
Will

Nope, not that I'm aware. Unfortunately AE does flatten layered PDFs, so that second option wouldn't work, either. It should however be possible to spit out each layer as a separate PDF from InDesign with a little work. Perhaps even someone already has created an extension/ command set for this, so I'd ask on the ID forums.

Applet in Apple Mac OSX problem

Hi all,
have developing an applet long while using WinXP platform, everthing seem ok, but when i try over Apple Mac OSX, i has a loading problem saying that init failed to load ArrayList as error message said:
ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...
but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL and its length is NOT ZERO either. what is happening here? oh, ya, this only happen in Safari, in FireFox for Mac no problem, even Camino also pass the test, why? anyone have idea about this? because i'm new to Apple Mac.
also, there is another question whereby, when i use FireFox for Mac to load the applet, the applet load seem no problem but it just can't display properly. what i mean is that in Windows platform (IE6), this applet show entire applet successfully, but when i try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet is now successfully show, why?
lastly, when a button of an applet being click and this will bring a new window with some parameters value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see prompt out saying is security problem, is there any workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk above:
_______________________________FireFox_____Safari_____IE
_______________________________Win | Mac_____Mac____Win
1. load applet for 1st time___________OK_|_NO_____FAIL____OK
2. refresh applet after 1st load failed___OK_|_OK_____FAIL____OK
3. when applet button click (security)___OK_|_NO_____-_______OK
p/s: all above test was using same applet with same parameter and value.
below is the sample i capture from Apple Mac just now:

i has a loading problem saying that
init failed to load ArrayList as error message
said:
ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...Well, post the stack trace.
but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and
its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL
and its length is NOT ZERO either. You can still get an out of bounds exception with those conditions. The list could exist, its length could be N, but you're trying to dereference position N + 5, for example.
try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without
any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet
is now successfully show, why?My guess is that you're not calling repaint() when you should, but that's just a guess.
lastly, when a button of an applet being click and
this will bring a new window with some parameters
value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it
won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see
prompt out saying is security problem, is there any
workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk
above:Often you can sign applets so they can do things that unsigned applets aren't allowed to do.
Maybe you're making some kind of security mistake that Firefox and Safari are (properly) catching but IE isn't. In any event, post the error message.

Kernel Panic Error after last MAC OSX update

Hi all,
My first post here.
Last week, after install the last update of MAC OSX on my intel IMac (last of 2009), when the computer was restarting, a kernel error screen appears...
I've launched the safe mode, and the computer starts fine and I've execute the disk utility to repair HDD and rights. I've done the same initializing from the installation DVD, but the kernel error appears again...
I leave only the usb apple keyboard plugged, and I don't understand why this error still happening, and of course why it occurs after a MAC OSX standard update (no new hardware or software installed in the las month).
I'm little desperate with this issue
kernel error.
Many thanks in advance!
Best regards
Hugo

Hi Hugo, & a warm welcome to the forums!
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), or Airport in 10.4 & below, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/LaunchDaemons
It does look like the com.metakine.handsoff.driver, whatever that's about.

Firefox 4.0 will not download at all, I get the circle with a slash. I have mac osx.

I had firefox 3.6, downloaded free upgrade, which totally replaced the old one, it's gone.
But the new icon has a circle and slash on it and is not viable. Doesn't work, doesn't open, messages says: You cannot open the application Firefox.app because it is not supported on this system.
I have Mac OSX 10.4.11.

Same problem, but I'm on OSX 10.5.8 - non Intel mac.
Wording is actually "... because it is not supported on this architecture."
Ironic that I have to use Safari to post this. :)
