Need help solving my FCP OS9.2 update problem

Hey all you maciacs. I just bought my second mac yesterday (used of course) and it had OS 9.1 on it. Well I was trying to install FCP on there under OS 9.2 and I went to upgrade and it kept saying system error 10. So I kept trying to figure things out and go on the internet and download OS 10 something. Now I was able to install FCP on my G3 (it's used as well) but I don't get real time effects.
So long story short I stayed up about 6 hours trying to figure this thing out then it gets stuck on the internet and I restart but it doesn't reboot all the way a question mark and the half face blinks on and off.
I need help is there a way to get the G3 to be at 500 MHZ speed to give me those real time effects or would it be cheaper to get this thing going on this G4? Who out there knows and cares to help a brother struggling?
Is it u?

Hi, finallyamacman -
OK, it's a G4 (AGP) model.
I just bought my second mac yesterday (used of course) and it had OS 9.1 on it. Well I was trying to install FCP on there under OS 9.2...
Does it have OS 9.1, or OS 9.2.1 or OS 9.2.2? If you updated it from OS 9.1, did you use a CD or a download update?
What OS 9 Install CDs do you have available? Specifically, retail ones - all retail OS 9 Install CDs have a white label with a large gold 9.
So I kept trying to figure things out and go on the internet and download OS 10 something.
You can not upgrade OS 9 (any version) to OSX by using download updates - they just don't exist. To get OSX on that machine, an initial Install of OSX must be done using a retail package disk set, then that can be upgraded within its base version using download updaters.
...it doesn't reboot all the way a question mark and the half face blinks on and off.
That indicates the machine can not find a usable OS from which to boot.
This can result from many events - the OS on the hard drive has become damaged in some way; one or more of its critical components has been moved out of the System Folder, such as the Extensions folder; there is directory corruption; or something else.
It can also result on some models from the internal battery being too weak or dead. Since it is a used machine, it is reasonable to assume it was left sitting unplugged for a while before you got it; this will drain the battery much more rapidly than would happen during normal usage. I'd recommend replacing the battery - you can get one at places like RadioShack for about US$17, cheaper on-line.

Need help solving this tricky connect paths problem!

I need to convert a bunch of separate paths in particular way so they create one single continuos path as shown in the attached PNG file.
It has me stumped. Does anyone know of a way to do this via scripting?

How often do you need to do this? I think that a script which would work properly may be more work than is worth the time.
I'm sure something like this could be done, but the real problem would be what would the next group of lines that you run the script on look like? Would a script that works for this circumstance work properly for another shape?
Here's some parameters to think about:
How do you determine which line segments (or endpoints) in the document need to be connected? All points in the document, or will you be working with a selection?
Once you determine the points (eliminating all that are already connected), how do you want them connected, and which point do you start with? Connect to the closest available point would seem what you want, but depending on how you determine which point to start with could give you different results.
You might want to loop through all eligible points, and save the distance to every other point into an array. Then, loop through connecting the 2 closest available points until you've connected every point.

I have the same problem and I haven't solved it yet. On Friday I plugged in my iPad to my work computer after not having done so for quite a while. Today I went onto the work computer and discovered I had not updated iTunes before plugging in the iPad (and which I cannot do without an administrator password). I guess I will update iTunes and try again when I can get the guy to show up with the password. I hope that works. The reset idea does not work on mine.
Was your iiTunes updated before you tried? Have you found any solution yet? Mail and some internet apps still work but games, notes applications, spreadsheets etc. just begin to open and close immediately.
If anybody has answers I'd love to get some clues.

Hi everybody, I am in Turkey on a long assignment, I need help solving a big problem on my macbook pro os 10.9.3. The other week my wife visited some website and now we have a redirect virus of some sort, and every other time when we click on a link or anywhere on the page we are redirected to this casino web site, https://casino.7bets10.com/tr/?from=hy9yKXD43jSC-8Oxbw4femNd7ZgqdRLk-dHJpeG9uaXR l. Its the same whether on Chrome or Safari. Does anyone have a solution, thank you!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

Hello, i really need help. I had just updated my iphone 3gs to 6.0.1, and after I updated, it won't activate.

Hello, i really need help. I had just updated my iphone 3gs to i.o.s. 6.0.1, and after I updated, it won't activate.I tried it in itunes and it always says " We cannot activate your iphone at this time..." and when I activate using Wi-Fi, it says, "Your iPhone cannot be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable." I could swear that my Wi-Fi is fine, and my Itunes is on the latest version. Is this a bad thing or does this normally occurs? Can I still fix this ? I'm so desperate to use my iphone cause I use it everyday for personal purposes. I sure would appreciate any tip or help . PLSSSS ! Thank you for that wonderful being that can help.

Do not take it to a third party repair shop - downgrading causes problems and voids your warranty.
I had to unlock it so that i could really use it as a phone.
And that is the root of the problem. Unless you had your carrier unlock it, it was hacked and cannot be legitimately activated. Even if you don't care about warranty or problems, downgrading simply will not help an activation issue.

Need help ASAP...iPhone activation problems

Today i bought two verizon iPhones from the apple store. I activated one just fine but I'm having problems with the other one. I used the upgrade for one of my lines on the account to purchase the other phone. I actually bought this for a friend who will use the iPhone on her own personal account. When I went to the apple store they "activated" the phone but didn't hook it up to the computer for iTunes or anything. Are there any steps I need to take before I give the phone to her so she can have a smooth transition in activating the phone because she lives in another state than I do? Do I have to hook the phone up to iTunes and activate it on my line or no? then switch back to old phone? Phone has never been hooked up to the computer. Need help ASAP please.

Not sure what exactly you did (or not), but it looks as if you should attempt doing it all again, only this time all right and by the book. Many millions have done so, and sure it'll work for you as well.
If you've indeed purchased ML already, you'll find it exactly there in the App Store: under Purchases.

Critical Irish Update needed to solve black and white tv problem on G20!

I recently had trouble with setting up tv on my Qosmio G20, I was pointed in the direction of a black and white problem that affects earlier models. The solution to the problem was to use the g20's drivers and run 2 reg files.
Having done that to no success i tried every irish combination possible, with still black and white, I then tried UK and got colour.
I mucked about with the registration files and found that in the file, there was no irish setting, So when a user puts ireland in as their location they will always get black and white.
Ireland uses the exact same settings for tv as the UK does, However if a person choses UK they will not get irish guides or irish channels to pick from (ireland isnt part of the uk)
i found the settings for the UK -
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\ttv200x\Parameters\44]
@="United Kingdom"
"FreqBoundary"=dword:000493e0
"LB_VideoStandard"=dword:20000080
"LB_AudioStandard"=dword:00020000
"LB_ShiftFreq"=dword:00000abe
"HB_VideoStandard"=dword:20000080
"HB_AudioStandard"=dword:00020000
"HB_ShiftFreq"=dword:00000abe
Figuring the 44, was the dial code for UK (that took a while to figure) i added a registry entry with exactly the same settings, but with ireland and 353 at the top.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\ttv200x\Parameters\353]
@="Ireland"
"FreqBoundary"=dword:000493e0
"LB_VideoStandard"=dword:20000080
"LB_AudioStandard"=dword:00020000
"LB_ShiftFreq"=dword:00000abe
"HB_VideoStandard"=dword:20000080
"HB_AudioStandard"=dword:00020000
"HB_ShiftFreq"=dword:00000abe
I now have colour tv under the irish settings in media centre, i also have sound now, where before i didnt. Hopefully the above code will be added to the registry file named ttv2_regdata_20050111.reg that comes as part of the http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB5800V20000R01.htm driver fix for the problem..
thanks to jimi in the following post http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?forumID=42&threadID=11145 for pointing me in the right direction.
Hope it helps someone..
laters taters...

I can confirm the problem isnt to do with win dvd creator 2 for toshiba. My registry setting was at 0.
Its bascially a known problem that was fixed, however it wasnt fixed for irish people.
When windows wants to play tv it looks in the registry to find out what settings to use. There are no irish ones. Our signal is technically the same as the UK, so using UK settings fixes the problem, However the UK guide doesnt work for irish channels. For the tv to work in colour windows needs the 353 settings.
I think the guy on this thread was having the exact same problem that is fixed with the registry entry.
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2488&tstart=75
This problem will only affect a small amount of users, The fix that comes with the toshiba drivers needs the irish settings added, Then the problem will be solved by updating the drivers.
until then any irish people can fix their black and white tv signal by adding the above registry entrys.
for trouble shooting purposes here is a list of countries where the bug is fixed... If someone complains of black and white tv on the qosmio series, this list can be checked, and if the persons country is absent, it could be the problem. To fix the problem you need to find out their country call code (+353 is ireland, +44 is UK) You also need to know the settings to add, i did this by looking at the UK settings in the file ttv2_regdata_20050111.reg that comes in the "reg" folder that comes for the qosmio tv driver.
here is the list of countries that an update of driver will work for...
"United States"
"Japan"
"Australia"
"Newzealand"
"China"
"Korean"
"United Kingdom"
"German"
"Italia"
"Swiss"
"Netherlands"
"Belguim"
"Luxemburg"
"Spain"
"Portugal"

"Malta"

Please need help!

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Under your battery, there's a product code on a sticker (X: 0586707). Go here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update and type in your productcode to see if there should be an update for your productcode. If there's not, you could take your phone to a Nokia Carepoint and ask if they could do it - no promises. Or else you have to wait untill your productcode gets it.

Bought Used Mac Mini...need help to change email for updates

Purchased an used Mac Mini and I want to change my defaults to my name and get rid of the sellers name, I also need help in changing the email default for getting my updates from Apple. That's the most important to me... I've got 5 updates waiting and the message I receive is to get my updates from the sellers email address. Thanks!!!

What OS is on your Mini? What year/model is the Mini? The seller should have reinstalled the OS that came with the Mini instead of just selling it to you as is.
Once you determine the OS, you can erase your Mini's Macintosh HD and reinstall the OS which will allow you to setup your own account during the Setup process.
