Not everyone updates their hardware porfile but it should have been spotted that yours lists 10.5.8 which was a big clue and reason to ask and check what you are runnning.
Apple sells 10.6.3. Unlike the prior two which did come out with 10.X.6 which would work and allow boot from DVD you may need the 10.6.8 on flash memory that comes with Lion except that is $69.
We usually do but get tired now that we've been saying "ATI 5x70 needs 10.6.5 or later" when people upgraded their graphic card like you did.
I wish that wasn't so. I don't know how ATI does it for Windows but they do have to retool their drivers when a new OS comes out but end up with a package that supports more than one OS version.

  • Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on itunes, how do I move them back to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.

  • My iPhone4 docks correctly with some devices but not others, please help!

    Hi,
    Firstly spologies if this is old news but sometimes its easier to 're-ask' than trawl thousands of pages!.....
    I have a 3-year old iPhone 4 that has developed a problem which i'm trying hard to solve;
    *Phone used to dock fine with anything and everything - this was about 1 year ago.
    *for no apparent reason it ceased docking with my Bose Soundock and a Logic3 accessory dock (connected to a hi-fi) at home
    *symptoms were; it would charge and operate as normal whilst docked but would not play music through either (the Logic3 dock did not acknowledge it was docked). Otherwise it would sync and connect normally with iTunes, etc. and connected fine when plugged into my car.
    *I reset it, restored it from back-up, updated/reinstalled iOS (this has since updated at least twice) with no other effects. Also checked and reset all settings.
    *I subsequently bought a Pure Contour dock as I was able to try it in the shop and my phone worked with it, plus it has Airplay anyway. I have since, in an attempt to find a bedside DAB radio/alarm dock that works with it, found that it works fine with some devices but not others with no rhyme or reason as to which.
    *2 days ago I changed out the docking port myself using a cheap replacement bought from Amazon, to see if it would cure.
    * now the problem is reversed! The Bose and Logic3 docks I have, that it wouldn't work on before, it now DOES....and the Pure dock and my car, which it DID work with before now fail to connect with it!
    *just to reiterate this, my wife's gen3 and gen5 iPods dock and work faultlessly with all devices mentioned....and mine had done previously.
    to my knowledge it is NOT;
    - a compatibility issue. The phone used to work fine on everything I had. Then it stopped. How's that?!
    - a connector issue. The male connectors on all docks haven't changed.......and the female connector in my phone has changed from liking selected devices to then liking the others!! (it is female after all ;-) !)
    -a software issue. iOS has been updated and the phone wiped and restored and all sorts so many times I can;t see how it can be!
    could it be a problem with the data exchange between phone and device when it is docked??
    or do I really need to try changing the port for an 'official' one??
    or is it just broken and that's that?!

    It's either a problem with the connector on your phone (dirt, lint, bent pin, corrosion) or with its connection to the motherboard inside. Cleaning the connector is a good place to start; either a dry toothbrush, air blast can or wood toothpick. Next inspect it carefully with a good magnifying glass or jeweler's loupe. If nothing turns up it is probably damage inside, which will be difficult to fix. Aren't you due for an upgrade about now? Your iPhone 4 is 3 generations out of date!

  • For some reason, my itunes both is inable to unstall the new update, and since this has been happening my iphone 4 wont be recognised either (recogised by windows but not itunes) please help!!

    Well its all prety much in the heading, itunes is unabe to update and iphone 4 wont be recognised, but it cmes up in 'computer'? please help, i have tried some things off the apple support page and googe search but hasnt helped. andi have loads of new beats ready to put on!

  • For some reason I cannot download and view PDFs from a website, It works in chrome, but not Firefox, please help.

    When attempting to download a PDF, (detailed bill description) the download appears in the OS X download folder. When attempting to click on that file, a warning comes up that the file is empty.
    When I switch browsers and navigate to the same page, (Chrome), the document downloads and I'm able to view the document.
    I updated the browser to version 33.1, but that didn't help.

    Do you have parental controls enabled on your computer or have other security software that might interfere?

  • Please help with Contribute issue- Adobe or anyone!

    My issues are many- I don't know where to start. First, as a long-time Adobe customer, I can not believe how support has declined- I really miss my "support package" from the early 90's when I spoke with a person who really knew how to address my problems and/or questions. I am so tired of being outsourced to someone who has no idea how to address my problem- only to send me to "Document #8932023912 03" off of the Adobe website. I want to talk to someone who KNOWS and APPRECIATES this product, and who understands its internal behavior (like what I get when I call MAC SUPPORT). I will pay for it! I have invested thousands of dollars on Adobe software and am now at an unacceptable standstill.
    My small business relies on the Adobe Creative Suite 4 and the Contribute program. Up until now, I have never had a complaint, especially after moving to Mac a few years ago. Troubles started after two things (still not sure what the culprit was) - installing Snow Leopard and installing a Wacom Bamboo tablet (on the same day- my bad). Well, Illustrator, Photoshop work just fine as well as my other non-Adobe programs. But I can't even open InDesign (will post this on the proper post) or Contribute. So Apple had me deduce that I needed to create a new User and try things there. I eventually migrated to this new user but still, I cannot use Contribute.
    I have set permissions with the program and contents of the folder- in addition to my Contribute keys to no avail. I can't even open it. Nor can I open it in my Root user which at least lets me run In Design. I am at a total loss and I need to update a website for my client. PLEASE someone, I would so greatly appreciate any advice or instruction as to how to run Contribute on my new user. Or in my Root user. I just need to get it to open! Reinstall did nothing PLEASE HELP.
    A special note to anyone from Adobe: I want to talk to someone via a support package-- NOT outsourced. Does this fee-based option exist? It doesn't seem to from the main support number. If someone can help direct me, I would appreciate the proper instruction to do so. I need to get my InDesign running again and I have already invested multiple hours, days with Adobe support with NO solution at all. This is unacceptable in my mind, especially for the moneys invested.
    Thank you in advance... Aimee M.

    I totally share your views on Adobe period. I loved Macromedia., they also answered all my questions, then Adobe had to buy them out! I called them today (sales Dept., that's where they answer rather quickly., of course), they explained the following: You can pay for a live person, but the prices differ  in that they come in packages. In other words, you can pay a flat rate per hour for one-on-one OR pay for one-on-one tech support 5 times per month, and the amount of times per month vary from that point on., and so does the price!  I'm baffled! They are HORRIBLE!! . Like yourself, am on a standstill ever since I've been stuck with not being able to publish my site with current edits and it gives me a message whereas my own company name is "currently editing the page," so it keeps kicking out. I've tried everything, including but not limited to the following: going to the library and checking out books to troubleshoot; going on Adobe pages for support as well the Help features on the software program., etc...I'm exhausted!  ADOBE you guys need to reassess your Customer Care Support and your outsourcing business as well!!! YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR CUSTOMERS RATHER QUICKLY!!

  • Please Help with printer issues

    I have an iMac intel and with OS 10.8.3. Since the last update about 2 days ago I have not been able to print though the printer is on the same wi-fi as iMac.  I have restarted both but to no avail. I deleted all the printers I had to try and add the same printer and the iMac will not list this printer, so I do not have the opportunity to add it. I rely heavilly as this is my liveliihood to be able to scan and print docs. Was this caused by the last update or is there something else going on? Please help!!!

  • Please help with export issue with HD.

    I have a current project set at 1920x1080 HDTV 1080i (16x9) and my customer has decided to change his mind and not go HD 16x9 which I had shot in specifically for this reason. What settings could I use to export for 720x480 DVD 4:3? Please help.
    Thanks
    Joe

    +Do I copy and past the Sequence file from the HD into a DV NTSC new project? Yes or no?+
    Yes. Once you are done export it to Compressor to encode your video into an m2v and the audio into an ac3 dolby stereo. Then import those as assets in DVDstudio4, create your menu, if you need one and burn your DVD.
    +Can you give me a more step by step?+
    As I asked before...are you not familiar with using Compressor and/or DVD Studio Pro?
    If not (and if the links I sent to you are not helpful enough) then follow these two approaches:
    (Hope Shane Ross doesn't mind if I report one of his stock answers about a basic way to make a DVD followed by my basic "step by step" use of Compressor in order to give the OP a quick and easy support).
    Shane Ross wrote:
    +The absolute simplest way to make a DVD using FCP and DVDSP is as follows:+
    +1. Export a QT movie, either a reference file or self contained using current settings.+
    +2. Open DVDSP, select the "graphical" tab and you will see two little monitors, one blue, one green.+
    +3. Select the left blue one and hit delete.+
    +4. Now, select the green one, right click on it amd select the top option "first play".+
    +5. Now drag your QT from the broswer and drop it on top of the green monitor.+
    +6. Now, for a DVD from an HD source, look to the right side and select the "general tab" in the track editor, and see the Display Mode, and select "16:9 pan-scan."+
    +7. Hit the little black and yellow burn icon at the top of the page and put a a DVD in when prompted. DVDSP will encode and burn your new DVD.+
    +THATS ALL!!!+
    +NOW...if you want a GOOD LOOKING DVD, instead of taking your REF movie into DVD SP, instead take it into Compressor and choose the BEST QUALITY ENCODE (2 pass VBR) that matches your show timing. Then take THAT result into DVD SP and follow the rest of the steps. Except you can choose "16:9 LETTERBOX" instead of PAN & SCAN if you want to see the entire image.+

    Creating your MPEG2 and AC3 files with Compressor:
    Compressor will create an Mpeg2 of your edited video and an ac3 (dolby stereo) for the audio (You can't create ac3audio with DVDstudio).
    (Use google for any farther information about any word or definition that remains slightly unclear to you).
    After that is done burning your DVD with DVDStudio will be quicker and easier.
    Step 1
    Once you are done with the edit you can:
    either export it straight from the timeline to Compressor (File>Export>Using Compressor)
    or create a QT movie (check self-contained in the export window) and import into Compressor after you open it.
    If you export it straight from the timeline Compressor will open automatically,
    if you wish to use the self-contained QT movie you can still export it from an open FCP project or open Compressor independently. If the the latter is your case once you open Compressor click on Add File in the toolbar (top left corner ).
    In both cases your video will appear in an untitled project right below the toolbar. You can see the movie (or FCP) icon and the title of your project.
    Now, the simplest way to proceed is as follow:
    you see the text next to the icon of your movie (in the blue rectangle) saying "drag here settings and destinations"? Now go to the settings window below, you can see the settings and destinations tabs. Go to Settings>Apple 4 groups>DVD 10 groups>DVD best quality 90 minutes two settings. This is the most common setting to use.
    In a nutshell drag the DVD best quality 90 minutes folder over the "drag settings and destinations here" text. Choose your destination. If you click each setting the inspector window activates. Now before we go ahead I suggest you to read the manual and understand the importance of the inspector window and its functions. In particular read about Avarege bit rate, maximum bit rate and in general Variable frame rate (VBR) and constant frame rate. With regard to audio read about ac3.
    This time we leave default settings and proceed by clicking the Submit button.
    In the preview window, right below the player commands you can see a little arrow and a date, click on the arrow and you can see that Compressor is encoding your video.
    Step 2
    When the encoding process is over open DVDstudio.
    See the first button of the toolbar , top left? Click on Import Asset, find your encoded audio and video files and open them.
    Now since your movie has been already compressed video(Mpeg2) and audio (ac3) they will show in the assets tab below the graphical tab followed by two green lights.
    From now follow Shane Ross's steps from point 3 if you don't want a menu.
    If you need a menu there's a simple video tutorial that came with FCP studio 2 discs . Take a look at that.
    Best,

  • Please help with WSRPi Issue

    Hi Gurus,
    I am using the Application Workspace Portlet extension for JDEV 1013.
    This morning I deployed successfully some JSR-168 Portlets in my WSRP OC4J container and registered the providers successfully with Portal 10.1.4

    Thanks
    JO

    Hi JO,
    I remember this problem - it used to occur in one of my Portlets. It usually happens when the Portlet is not compiled using the same JDK compiler as the OC4J.
    Does your JDev 10.13 ( the default JDK is JDK 1.5 ) & the OC4J contaier for Portal 10.1.4 have the same JDK version ?

  • Please help with this issue "To Run a SSIS Package outside of Server Data Tools You must install Drived Column of Integration sercvies of higher" From C# app

     i have searched all over the google and here on MSDN(I have read all the threads related to my problem ) , i am new to SISS and doing my clg project ,
    I have this package which loads data from  dim tables to a fact table , my Package runs without any problem in BIDS (2012)
    I have installed SQl Server integration services on SQL and service is also running in services.msc,
    the problem comes when i execute my package using my C# application i am using MSDN Method to execute a SSIS package programmatically given here.
    "http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136090.aspx"
    For loading my FactTable i have used a Derived columns  and some lookups , 
    Now if i don't use derived columns and looks ups and just use source and destination component then my package runs fine from my C# application but if i use derived columns or looks ups etc it gives the following error
    "Error in Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.TaskHost/SSIS.Pipeline: To Run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must Install Derived Column of Integration services of higher"
    I am searching and trying to resolve this issue from previous 2 days but without any luck please help or guide me what is solution to this problem ,,i will be very thankful
    I have also found that integration services that are running on my system have version  10.0
    but the BIDS have version Version 11.0.3402.0
    IS this causing problem ?  if yes then what i have to do  ?

    Hi BlaxButt,
    The package is developed in SSDT installed by SQL Server 2012, so it is a SSIS 2012 package. However, the Integration Services you have installed is SQL Server 2008 R2 version. To run the package outside SSDT, you need SSIS 2012 installed. The reason why
    the package runs fine with only Source and Destination components is that such a simple package can be executed by the DTExec utility installed by SQL Server 2012 Data base Engine or Client Tools (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard). To run a package that
    uses other tasks/components outside SSDT/BIDS, the SSIS runtime is also required except the DTExec utility. To obtain the SSIS 2012 runtime, we have to install SSIS 2012 on the server where the package runs.

  • URGENT!!! Java Gurus Please Help with adf issue!

    PLEASE SEE MY LATEST POST BELOW TIMO'S RESPONSE. THE REQUIREMENT HAS CHANGED. THAT IS THE ISSUE I AM LOOKING A SOLUTION FOR.
    Hello All,
    We have a requirement where our adf/jsf app needs to pick an EXCEL file from the server where the application is deployed. The sequence is :
    User comes to the page
    Clicks on "Open EXCEL" button
    EXCEL file located in the c:/ of the server opens up.
    How can this be done? I do not see any coding needed because the EXCEL file is being opened as is (and after user views it he closes the file) and the data is not being transferred to the jspx page.
    *We are totally flexible in how this is implemented - ie, using button, link , html etc etc. What ever works!!!!*
    Thanks,

    Hello Timo,
    I am using 10.1.3g so your response is not going to help me.
    However, I have another question that I have already posted on the Forum. Please help me...
    Requirement:
    *1. Java application should be able to write "Hello World" in the excel file, when the user opens it.*
    I CAN DO THIS WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
    HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet("newSheet");
    HSSFRow row = sheet.createRow(1);
    row.createCell(1).setCellValue("HelloWorld!!!!!!!!!");
    *2. A "Write To Excel" button on jsf page opens a dialog asking user to Save or Open the excel file. (user can save the file anywhere on his machine)*
    I CAN DO THIS WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
    In jsf:
    <af:commandButton text="Download" action="#{myBackingBean.writeToExcel}" useWindow="true"/>
    In backing bean:
    public static void writeToExcel() throws IOException
    String filename = "workbook.xls";
    // //Setup the output
    String contentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)fc.getExternalContext().getResponse();
    response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + filename);
    response.setContentType(contentType);
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
    BOTTLENECK: When the user opens the excel how do I show "HelloWorld!!!!!!!!!" ?
