MySQL no longer working

This seems to have appeared with the 10.7.4 update (from Combo), but it can be shear coincidence.
I'm facing a problem with mySQL, and I'm not sure what's involved as some other issues are cropping and I don't know what's the basic issue that's triggering all the others.
- When trying to setup a joomal site in my user/sites location , when I validate the database creation screen I get the message: unable to create database: unable to get to mySQL. (From within a MAMP virtual server site it works and I create the database).
- If I create via MAMP a joomla site in my user/sites/ folder, when I want to log into it va http://localhost/~myuser/mysite I get "unable to connect to mySQL".
in MAMP the user and password are 'root' (same as defaults for other DB). Logging with http://mysite:8888 (MAMP virtual server) works. Server on OS X is running on different ports than MAMP.
- I cannot create/upload through my admin account a site location in /Library/Webserver/Documents, although it's an admin account.
- After FTP transferring from my Desktop to OSX or MAMP server locations (advised for Akeeba Backups of joomal sites) I find many files with com.apple.quarantine set ???
- For sites that were created a few weeks ago, I don't have any problem connecting to them.
I've got the feeling that my account is to blame somehow, as it's been transferred from numerous OS X versions to the next one, and is all but "clean" (lot of "old" files that didn't get erased but don't seem to be used any longer), and I did "repair authorisations", fsck -fy, all things I could think of.
I don't see anything obvious, and how could I diagnose this ?
- Operating with a different admin empowered account doesn't seem to improve things, though.
On the other hand, I'm having this issue on my iMac but also on my MacBook Air, which is less than one year old and didn't go through many OS X releases.
How can I restore mysql settings to it's defaults ?
(as MAMP changes some settings, but having read some posts I did made some corrections that were suggested eg: the /var/mysql/mysql.sock versus /tmp/mysql.sock issue)
As you can see I'm lost here and will welcome any hint at getting back to a working situation.

Migrating to new Mac, Yosemite, MySql no longer works

I guess that MySql is not installed and does not migrate when moving to a new Mac? There are some good instructions on installing on Mavericks. Does anyone have similar or good ones for cleaning and installing on Yosemite?
I was using Desktop Server and XAMPP, but I'm getting strange errors like "MySql is already running" I've quit it from the preferences panel, but it won't restart. XAMPP won't use that version ? I may have to remove and reinstall ?
TIA,
Jeff

Just for future reference - I couldn't find my Final Cut Studio v1 serial number, but I had my email receipt from when I ordered it. I called up Apple support, went down the path for software and managed to get someone in licensing that when I faxed over my invoice and photocopy of my disk, generated me a new v1 serial number.
So if push comes to shove, if you can prove ownership/purchase Apple will provide a replacement serial number.

Hi,
Now I see that mail() and fakeRecordset no longer works
it´s the column name "return" which is a so-called "reserved word" (here´s a list of reserved words: http://www.htmlite.com/mysql002a.php) and triggers the SQL syntax error.

Both give errors, as well as Phpmyadmin. I can't seem to find any relevant log files either. I tried some random stuff, but nothing seems to work. I just got MySQL set up on this box about 2 days ago, then an update comes around and messes it up again

Yes, I did read that. Even after messing with config files it doesn't work. And PHP config? I'll assume that's a typo. What all do you have to change? Everything looks fine on my current my.cnf file, I think at least.

# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between

# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -

# MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
# where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
# <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
# Example:
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
# MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
# OR
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
# connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
# change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
# For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched

PCS no longer working with contacts and 6086

I have applied the latest release of PC Suite 6.84.10.3.
Previously the installed level was 6.83.14.1
The send/read/write message still doesn't work but hangs the Windows Explorer for a while (this hang didn't occur previously)
But now, the contact facility no longer works. It is no longer possible to edit a contact, to store it locally or to send it to the phone even a message says everything is OK
(translate it from french: The contact has been well recorded into the phone)
Folder browsing still works correctly, either the phone folder or the memory card folder
Need a fix or a way to install the previous version, at least for the contacts...
This is a really negative feedback!

I guess what I learned is that sometimes the best solution is to do nothing and wait for the problem to solve itself! Funny, this has never worked for me before.
WOT is now working for me but often for only the first few rows of images. That's cool that it is also working with bing images.
Boudica, thanks for understanding. I am new contributor/ question-asker here on mozilla and may not understand how things are done. I was just frustrated, getting an email saying that my question was answered, logging in to find that it wasn't.
Now we have the functionality that we wanted, right?

Brand new IPOD Touch Apps no longer work after upgrading software

I got a Ipod touch for my wife Today at Wal-Mart. I brought it home, connected to wifi and downloaded some apps and also payed for some. They all worked fine. Then I connected to computer to transfer songs. It told me to upgrade the Ipod software so i Did. After it restarted none of the downloaded apps work anymore. I have read MANY MANY MANY discussions on this and there is no fix. I am not wiping out all the songs and reload everything all over again. It will take forever. My wifes BD is Friday and this is making me so mad after I just dropped $300 on this thing. APPLE!!! Where is the fix? I deleted the apps and reinstalled they still don't work. Anybody got this figured out? I am getting ready to get my money back and tell everyone to avoid buying ipod until they get this upgrade bug fixed.
Message was edited by: 2009 IPOD TOUCH

I have the same problem. Brand new two days ago. I synched the touch with Itunes but wasn't hooked up to the internet at the time so didn't do the software upgrade right away. Then I downloaded about a dozen apps (free and paid) with wifi directly to the touch. They all worked fine. Then I plugged it back in to Itunes and had it upgrade it to 3.1.2. It locked up Itunes several times since then and the downloaded apps no longer work (they start to open then disappear).
The problem is, no one is listening to this problem (including Anna above)! Everyone says "just do a hard reboot, or restore to factory settings, reload the apps, etc." I've tried all the standard troubleshooting but none of it fixes this. It sure seems to me this is a problem with 3.1.2 but Apple isn't helping out here. Where are you APPLE? Use some of those outrageous profits you're making to fix the problem you have created. Here's $300 of my hard earned dollars pretty much down the drain.

Link to A folder View in a PDF Portfolio - feature no longer working - please advise

Hi, I am no longer able to link to a Folder View of a PDF Portfolio:
Within a PDF portfolio i need to link from a PDF to a folder view in the Portfolio. I am using Link Action - Go to Page View.
This used to work for me - very important feature that no longer works. Please advise a workaround.
Steps:
1. Start a PDF Portfolio that contains files and folders
2. Open a PDF in the Portfolio
3. in the opened PDF click Add or Edit Link
4. Define a link area and set it to Go To A Page Vies
5. In the past i have been able to target a Folder View in the Portfolio - ie. direct a user not to a file, but instead to a folder view that contains relevant files. I would do this by setting the Target Page View to my desired folder view
6. This used to work in bringing a user to the folder view i specify. Now it does nothing. If i go back to the PDF and EDIT the Link i see this. File: Parent Document Page 1. This in fact does nothing.
Please advise, am i doing this wrong, it used to work. I have tried several workarounds, with no luck.
thanks!

There's an extension or two, or a combination of extensions which seem to be causing that in Firefox 6.0.2. One that has been mentioned is TabMix Plus.
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You need to figure out what is causing it, and disable that extension/s until they are fixed by their developer.

IPod Apps no longer work, Music disappears, Fix?

QUESTION : How to fix permanently the “iPod Touch Breakdown“?
(seems identical to the iPhone “Breakdown“)
Since I upgraded to 2.0.2, running iTunes 7.7.1 (11) on a MacBook Pro G4, I keep having big trouble with Apps, Music and Films.
Here is what I call the “iPod Touch Breakdown“:
- Apps won’t start : the iPod would go back to the home screen after a few seconds.
- Music and Films disappear (My music consists essentially of personnal CDs).
- (for me Photos are still there)
- all original Apple Apps work OK
This is a known problem, also occuring on the iPhone with many posts on the iPhone discussions forum (see “iPhone“/“Installing and Using iPhone Applications“/“iPhone Applications no longer work“. At the time I write this messge, this question has been viewed 16,080 times ( ) (*) and there have been 319 replies: probably a sad record for a single question, which means that THERE REALLY IS A BASIC PROBLEM.
My iPod is a 8Gb purchased while staying in Pasadena, almost a year ago. I was extremely happy to use it more and more like a PDA (updates 2.0.1 and 2.0.2).
There have been some fixes proposed on the discussions forum (iPhone) that I tried and I have tried myself a couple more. NONE of them could fix the problem permanently: all fixes have been working for a day or two, no more. Untill you download an App (even an update) and you get the “Breakdown“ again.
As other users, I have noted a slowdown in anything I am doing (e.g. typing text) just before the Apps stop working and the music disappears. (see for instance Truth42 on iPhone Forum (Applications no longer work), Posted: Aug 25, 2008 10:57 AM)
Fixes: typically you get to disinstall and then reinstall all your Apps. Each time, you lose all your Apps parameters (bad for data bases and notes).
Two ways:
see iPhone forum: Aveonz Posted: Aug 24, 2008 3:16 AM :
1- sync using iTunes
2- in iTunes/Store: deauthorize your account
3- sync
4- authorize
5- sync (will re-load your Apps)
6- sync (to backup you new configuation)
(the whole process may take several hours; I have also done a reboot between 3 and 4)
(ii) proposed by various people :
1- deselect all applications
2- sync
3- disconnect your iPod and reboot it (pressing both buttons simultaneously for several seconds – see Apple site) (you keep you parameters, WiFi, etc)
4- select the Apps you want back
5- sync (will re-load your Apps)
6- sync (to backup you new configuation)
In the end you can use the Apps you have reloaded, but just for a few days (or hours)… until you cannot resist downloading a new App, or simply just download an App update. It won’t breakdown instantly after you do that, but it will very soon.
I certainly would take any procedure to fix this definitely. However, the best choice is probably to use as few third party Apps as possible (none is better) and wait for 2.1. Hopefully Apple is working on this, and we’ll get a definite fix very soon. This actually makes a very bad press for the iPod Touch and iPhone.
Sadly,
because I think iPod Touch and iPhone are beautiful machines –but for how long? Competition is tough…

(*) about this number 16,080, obviously not all of the viewers experienced the “Breakdown“, but most were just curious to know. Still, the good question is to know how many of us, using the iPhone and iPod Touch experience this bug (virus?) and why some have it and not others (and in which proportion?).

Same issue here since updating to 2.0.2; Is there a way to back I wonder?
So I plugged back in my iPod touch and,...
0. make a note of all your music, movies, photos, apps selections to restore
1. cancel connect attempt to iTunes store (little 'x' in iTunes toolbar)
2. cancel attempts to sync or backup (little 'x' in iTunes toolbar)
3. clicked <OPTION>[Restore] once selecting my iPod touch device
4. navigate to <home>/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Udpates/
5. pick the prior update: iPod1,12.0.1_5B108Restore
6. then waited through iPod window status displays
'Preparing iPod software for restore...'
'Restoring iPod software...'
'Verifying iPod Software...'
7. OK the 'Your iPod has been restored to factory settings,...'
8. Ssync process did NOT automatically being so I unplugged & plugged it
(I did verify that 2.0.1 was loaded seeing the App Store)
9. Pick 'Set up as a new iPod'; don't pick an earlier backup point
(mostly 'cause I couldn't be sure which was a good failsafe).
10. iTunes then begin setup of my [ahem] new iPod.
STOP IT; it'll try and do restore everything. Then navigate the tabs for
your iPod and re-select those things you want (music,photos,movies,apps,etc)
So like any computer you need to keep proper backups.
The apple s/w system updater appears to do just that automatically, thanks! Of course it would've been nice to have had the 2.0.2 version tested a bit more before its release.
IMHO the host (mac) should have kept my prefs for the iPod rather than my resorting to handwritten notes but at least I'm back to normal. Consider when replacing an iPod how you'd want the replacement to be a mirror of its predecessor.
Oh, skip future requests to update to 2.0.2 until Apple can get his sorted out.

TS3771 My iTunes U no longer works since the update, an error message pops up saying that "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed the tutorial that suggests to change to from 64 to 32 bit and it didn't

iTunes U video files no longer work on my computer since i update to Mavericks. The following message appears on the screen "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed a tutorial that suggested to go to Applications/iTunes/Get Info and change to 32 bit. Now my iTunes does not open at all, it says it requires 64 bit. I am a bit confused and disappointed. What should I do to get it fixed? Buy a new MacBook?

Marcello, I am having the same problem. When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini.
I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward.

Itunes no longer works on ipad on version 6 software

My I tunes 10.6.1 no longer works with my upgraded software ipad 2 on version 6 stating my mac needs a higher operating system (currently on 10.5.8) to then upgrade I tunes 10.7. I can no longer use my ipad with itunes simply because I have an older mac operating system. An upgrade on the mac operating system is a lot of money . There is no roll back of ipad software from 6 to the original to cure this

The upgrade to the Mac is around $30.00 if it is still available. You need to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 - I think that's the latest SL version.
I copied this from another discussion.
Apple said that customers can still purchase a copy of Snow Leopard or Lion from its online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).
Here is the discussion.

ITunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system. Get error msg saying C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114..

iTunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system. Get error msg saying an application is attempting to access C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114. Same msg, or one that says unable to install, when trying to update or reinstall iTunes. iTunes worked well up until about a month ago when this error msg starting appearing.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

The computer my iTunes account was locked to no longer works

As the title says my computer that has all my tv shows and that on no longer works.
I was reading when I bought the tv series and that, that its locked to one computer only. So what happens now that its broken?
Do I have to rebuy everything when I get a new computer or am I able to re download once I get a new computer?
Is there anything I can do?
thanks

Content is not locked to a single computer. You do, however, get only one download per purchase for any content other than apps and iBooks. So unless you have a backup, as iTunes itself advises you to make, or have those shows on an iOS device, you may indeed have to repurchase them.
If you lack a backup and an iOS device with those shows, your best hope is that the hard drive in your old computer still works. If it does, you can mount it to your new computer, either internally if there's room for another drive or in an external case. You should then be able to drag the TV shows and any other content from the old hard drive into the iTunes window in your new computer. Once there, all you should have to do is authorize the computer to your iTunes Store account (Store menu in iTunes -> Authorize This Computer).

ITunes 12 - "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised" feature no longer works

Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I've been having.
Since updating to iTunes 12, the 'Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised' feature no longer works. When I add media to the library, iTunes doesn't copy it to a destination within my media library. It only works if I turn the feature off, and then back on again.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't use the feature myself, but it works properly in a test library for me.
It could possibly be a permissions issue. Different processes in iTunes seem to make use of either the system or the user account for file actions and it is just possible that which has been used in that case has changed. See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for details.
