Need Help With Installling Classic on OS X Panther??

Hi: When I installed OS X Panther, I wasn't aware that in order to run Classic 9, I needed 9.2. Well, I purchased 9.2 but everytime I install it it's giving me an error message. I've checked the disk as well as my HD and everything seems to be fine. I've turned off screensaver, unplugged my printer and disconnected the cable to the internet. What's up? It still won't install. It keeps saying there were errors in installing. Can anyone help me out here. I'd sure appreciate it.

    I recently received a laptop from school to access my online classes.  When I tried to use Adobe Reader I received the following message:  Adobe Reader 9.1 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  Sorry for the inconvenience.  I tried tech support at school and was told to uninstall and reinstall the program.  During the installation process I received the following error:  Error 1321 The installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:/Program Files/Adobe/Reader 9.0/Reader/Onix32dll. I need this program for school.  Can some one please help me.

    Hello again, Michael,
    Was unable to do the UAC changes.  Buttons where not highlighted.  I just went ahead and uninstalled Adobe and downloaded Foxitsoftware and it works.   Thanks for all your help Michael you have made my online school experience better.
    Sincerely,

    Hello again, Sherri:
    It's my pleasure to provide assistance when I can :•) Having just recently graduated after 7 years of effort just to get a 2-year degree, I can relate to needing software to get class work accomplished. I will do everything I can to make it happen for you today.
    Since you didn't mention, the UAC setting, I'd like you to disable it for me if it isn't already:
    1. Open Control Panel
    2. Under User Account and Family settings, click on the "Add or remove user account"
    3. Click on any user account
    4. Under the user account click on the "Go to the main User Account page" link.
    5. Under "Make changes to your user account", click on the "Change security settings" link
    6. In the "Turn on User Account Control (UAC) to make your computer more secure" click to unselect the "Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer". Click on the Ok button.
    7. You will be prompted to reboot your computer - do so when ready
    You may need to uninstall/reinstall Reader after the reboot in order for the problem to go away, but that part I am not certain of. Try to duplicate the issue prior to taking that step.
    If you are unable to resolve issues with Adobe Reader, I recommend using a different reader that has much less bloat and is updated regularly:
    http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/
    FoxIT is a FREE alternative to using Adobe's Reader. Support for free Adobe products is limited forums such as this. The same holds true for open source alternatives except the manufacturer usually helps support their forums while Adobe doesn't monitor this forum or any like it. I know how important it is for you to focus on your classes so don't beat your head against a wall just because Reader won't work when a viable solution exists.
    Best of success in your pursuit of knowledge!

  • New to Oracle- Need help with installation from cmd shell.

    Hello!
    I am writing a script to automate the installation of Oracle Forms and Reports 6i in XP through cmd.exe. The script works great, but the command is incomplete.
    Currently the command in the script is "setup -responseFile directory\response.rsp".
    This is supposed to generate a .rsp file containing all the options I selected in the custom installation (so I can simply call that file in future implementations of this script to automatically get all those settings), but it does not.
    Does any one know what might be wrong: why isn't this generating the response file?
    Or, do you know the arguments for the command so that I don't even need a response file?
    I've googled this about a dozen times and found nothing very helpful.
    Any advice is appreciated.
    P.S. I've also tried -record -destinationFile. No luck with that either.

    Madrid,
    I had already tried that with no success. Just to be sure, I tried it again a moment ago exactly as you have it written except for the location name ("setup.exe -record -destinationFile \\directory\response.rsp"). Again, I don't see a response file.
    I have viewed the link you sent me as well. Unfortunately, it looks like a I need to use the Universal Installer? I don't see anything like that in my installation directory. Am I completely missing something? Oracle is a whole new bag for me.

  • Desperately need help with installation

    Right, so I bought the student pack for the Creative Suite5 Design Premium.
    The first of my problems came when I was trying to install acrobat 9. The problem was that halfway through verification, the setup wizard said that Windows Installer needed to be closed for it to finish verifying, which is really confusing because it was Windows Installer running the installation i nthe first place.
    So I tried installing the Design Premium suite itself, I was informed that the minimum requirements were not met for a number of products. I deselected the ones I did not need until I was left with adobe photoshop cs5 and adobe indesign cs5. Both of these did not meet system requirements, even though I did a check on this website itself for the requirements. I found that I actually exceeded the minimum requirement needed so I still don't understand why the installation won't work.
    I am an art student doing digital painting so I would really appreciate swift help. This is a really frustrating issue.
    Thanks.

    Could you please post your machine configuration, OS, RAM, Processor details and resolution on which you are installing. Please post PDApp.log file from C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Temp\PDApp.log
    and ignore all the warning messages and try installing. These are just kind of warnings and does not stop installation, if any application does not support the environment, that particular application will have trouble working with.
    Thanks,

  • Need help with (Runescape Classic Graphiced) online game

    I am wondering if someone could link the program Jagex used to make Runescape Classic. Or if you have to, a land generator and character, graphics, object program. If you could also explain how to work it into HTML. That would be good too. I want to put this game (will be massively Multiplayer) on my website. Please help soon.
    P.S. Explain how to make it multiplayer.

    I am wondering if someone could link the program Jagex used to make Runescape Classic.Jagex tends to use proprietary in-house tools, so the odds are that the modeller used to make RS Classic isn't available on the web. To be honest, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that the Gowers hand-coded the early models in a hex editor.
    If you're looking for 3D modelling tools which are used by games developers, you could do worse than Blender or Milkshape3D. However, given that you don't seem to know what an applet is or how to do networking, I think you're biting off more than you can fit in your mouth, let alone chew. Start with learning the basics and think about doing a MMORPG in a year or two.

  • Need help with installation of 10.4

    I have a power tower pro G3 with 9 2.2 and, until just a few days ago, 10.3.9. The 10.3 just disappeared! guess I did something very wrong. I have four hard drives and was running some disc repair utility...the next time I tried to start up I could only start up in 9 2.2 To make a long story short I have 10.4 on discs but I guess I need to do some things to be able to install 10.4. Unfortunately I am, obviously, a novice in this type of thing. Is there anyone who can advise me what to do? I know there is a firewire issue to deal with and firm ware updates to check for. I just don't know where to begin. Thanks to anyone who can get me started in the right direction.

  • Need help with iPod classic/Alpine stereo deck interface

    Hey All-
    I have installed a brand new Alpine CDE-143BT stereo deck in my car.  I have a 160gb iPod classic that I connect and control via the iPod sync cable, directly into the USB port on the deck. I currently have 113GB of music on the iPod.  The deck is less than 4 months old, and the iPod also has the most current software on it. 
    When I do an alphabetical search for Artist, Album, etc. I have noticed that not all of the letters in the search take me to that letter group.  For example, when I do a search for "D" it goes to "The Crystal Method";  "M-T" it takes me to "The Kinks", and so on.  It seems to be worse with an Artist search over Album search. 
    Any suggestions?

    If you have full resolution copies of the photos on the iPod have a look here: Apple Knowledge Base article - Use Disk Mode to copy photos from iPod
    If not, there are a few programs out there for recovering photos from an iPod, have a look at the ones below. If you search the internet you can find more. Just be aware that what you'll be recovering will be photos optimised for the iPod so they won't be the same quality as the original full resolution versions:

  • Need help with installation of Photoshop Elements 13, Error message 6?

    I tried installing on both a windows 7 and 8.1 computer. Both installs ended with error message 6, a failed install."this installer does not support installatiin on a 64 bit windows operating system. Please download the 64 bit version of Photoshop elements."
    What should I do?

    download the 64 bit version seems like a logical step.
    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • Need help with installation of JCreator

    When i get to the third part of the JCreator Setup Wizard it says i need the latest version of JDK JavaDocs installed on my system.
    I don't know what exactly i need to download cuz when i look at the downloads page on the site, i don't really see anything that has the word 'docs' in it...so i'm wondering if i need actual documents with names.
    Do I need these docs? cuz i used JCreator and everything seems to be okay.
    Can someone tell me what to do plz???

    The JavaDocs can be downloaded here:

    Instructions for installing them found here:

    You probably don't need to docs to use JCreator, but I is nice to have docs for looking up information about classes.

  • Need help with the classic question: iMac or MacPro?

    HI all,
    I have been tossing this questions for a little while now, high end iMac or low end MacPro? So if I can request your patience, please allow me to rattle this lot off and see if you can help.
    My current spec is:
    • MacPro 1,1
    • 2 x 2.66 Dual Core Xeon
    • I have 2 screens, 24"
    • All 4 internal bays have HDs, 1 is designated for TimeMachine.
    • 2 external HDs, 1 for iTunes and misc, 1 for boot HD backup.
    The software I run are mostly the Adobe CS suites, some 3d, some audio, and soon some FCPX.
    I have had the computer for about 4 years now, and although it has served me very well it is getting tired etc. I am a long-term tower computer fan, but I can't ignore the question.
    So, I have been thinking of either:
    • Going for the high-end iMac, and consolidate much of my internal HDs into an external RAID system.
    or
    • Getting the low-end MacPro, with the 3.2ghz Nehalem chip upgrade, and basically keep the same 'style' of system I have now.
    The
    What would you recommend? My concern is of course related to price, and bang for the buck, but more than that - longevity for the upcoming years. Pretty much now is the time when I will be updating, and I expect to keep whatever system for the next few years.
    I don't see my uses for the Mac to be too much different from what is listed above. I have not installed anything other than additional HDs and RAM into my current Mac - so in that respect expandability isn't too much of an issue.
    The price is similar enough to be comparable.
    In case you wonder, the current MacPro has been earmarked for use in another task, which is likely to include usage of the screens... Hence in somerespects, this is a "starting from scratch" situation...
    Thoughts?
    Many thanks,
    Aaron

    Forgot to mention Aperture. Lot's of photos.

  • Need help with iPod classic photo sync

    I received an iPod classic with photos of my wedding on it, as a gift.
