Need workaround for continued failed update?

I haven't been able to get Dreamweaver to successfully update for quite some time. There's no detail to the error message, just a generic statement that it didn't complete the process. Screen capture below. What's my next step?

Have you tried downloading the update manually and then installing it manually? The download link is this one:
<http://download.macromedia.com/pub/dreamweaver/updates/cs5/11_0_4/win/AdobeDreamweaver-11- 0-All-Update.zip>
You may need to restart your machine after you have applied the updates for changes to take place.

Need Workaround for periodical autocommit in WebForms without using Timer

Hi guys...
I need to use autocommit in my form for say 1 min.
As ther is a great performance degradation when i go for timers, i need a workaround to achieve the same functionality without using timers.
Thanx & Regards
Sriram

Get this zip file
 
unzip the file 
copy the bean_timer.jar in your <forms_home>/java directory 
update your formsweb.cfg configuration file 
archive_jini=f90all_jinit.jar,...,bean_timer.jar 
open, compile and run the beantimer.fmb sample demo

HT4367 My Apple TV needs restoring following a failed update and iTunes won't pick it up?? Any ideas anyone - never had to link it to comp before

Hi - my Apple TV had a failed up date and now I need to restore it. I have hard wired to my comp but iTunes's does not see to be picking it up? Just have the apple device blinking its light and comp timer is just going round? Any ideas anyone? Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community Mvt1976.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
Check that you have correctly followed the instructions for your model of Apple TV.
If not already, try using a powered USB port.
Repeat the process but this time try connecting the cable while iTunes is closed.
Repeat the process with another cable.
Try restoring the Apple TV on another computer in another location.

Need workaround for a MV

Hi All,
I am facing one issue while creating a mv. The source for this mv contains more then 1.75 billions records. This source table contain a column TEXT VARCHAR2(2000). If I tried to create without that column mv gets created but with column it is giving error of like "UNABLE TO EXTENTS THE SPACE BY " I increased the temp tablespace size to 15 gb on both souce and destination end but still issue is not resolve.
Then I created that mv view 5000000 records and now my issue is anyhow put those remaining record into mv table.
Any workaround or any suggestion is greatful.

If this is MV was something that was going to be refreshed periodically, what you could do is create a pl/sql script (or procedure) that you could schedule that would reload this table. You could try doing an insert select to see if that would work but my guess would be that it would still fail with the space constraint. You could also do bulk collection and insert groups of records that way and commit every million records or whatever works best for your environment. Thats a pretty good size table.

Workaround for ORA-02060: update on view with db-link

Hello,
In my application I have a page that is based on a view. This view itself is based on a table in the same database and a table in another database which I pick up through a db-link.
To update the data in the view I have created an instead-of trigger which handles all the DML (which is a direct update on the local table and a message towards a broker for the update of the remote database).
When updating from the database with a statement like UPDATE VIEW SET COLUMN1 = VALUE WHERE COLUMN2 = PK_ID, there is no problem. Everything is triggered in the right way.
But when I want to update a row in my APEX page I get 'ORA-02060: select for update specified a join of distributed tables'. This is due to the fact that APEX fetches the row as SELECT * FROM VIEW FOR UPDATE.
How can I work around this? I don't need the locking mechanism that 'FOR UPDATE' provides, because I can solve that myself. So basically, can I alter APEX's statement that performs the Automatic Row Processing (DML)?

So you answered your question yourself :) Pretty or not, it does the work. Imagine programmers beeing able to work only using wizards and have no clue about what they do. What kind of quality would you get? :)

Need workaround for AppleScripts Running

I recently upgraded to Mavericks on my MacBook Pro. Now I am trying to use software that is requesting AppleScript Runner. I understand it is no longer supported in Mavericks. Is there a workaround that will let me use my software? [Software: Wiley CulinarE - Companion 4]
I saw the scripting thread on this online, but I am not a programmer or a proficient computer geek, so if you are going to recommend script, please give me step-by-step instructions on how to access the script and change it. I am such a novice!
Thanks for your help!

Hello everybody, Im trying to update my ITunes on my MAC (laptop) to the newer version so I can then be able to update the latest updates for my Iphone-3G. I don’t require a complete reinstall just need to be able to update my itunes.
What I have tried so far is I had my MAC search for update’s and it said that I should update to (ITunes version 10 . 6 . 3 ) So I asked it to do the update but after 2hrs of waiting for it to download/update it then puts up a message saying the following- (In order to continue installation, please close the following application: ITunes).
When I tried to do this another message comes up that says- (The update ITunes can’t be installed. The following install step failed: run preupgrade script for Apple mobile device support. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)
I have also tried to run the update while having closed ITunes before I even start the update but the same problem happens after waiting about 2hrs.
Some one that had the same problem said this might be happening in the older operating systems. But that does not make sense because surely Apple want customers who own a MAC and i-phone to still buy from iTunes.
My MAC is about 4-5years old. I have a i-phone.3G,
Can anybody help me please and Thank you?

Download iTunes using the tab at the top of this page. Then run the update with iTunes closed.

*UPDATED 7/15/04* Complete guide to bioses, drivers, and needed files for the MSI K8N Neo Platinum

Complete newbie's guide to bioses, drivers, and needed files for the MSI K8N Neo Platinum:
Last Updated: Thursday July 15th, 2004
Bioses:
(In order of date released.)
1.1b3 - (Download)
- Pre-1.1, given to reviewers to use in their reviews and benchmarks.
- Less stable, but supposedly you get slightly better overclocks.
1.1 Official - (Download)
1. This is AWARD BIOS release
2. This BIOS fixes the following problems of the previous version:
- Memory always run DDR 200 when install single side DDR on DIMM2 & DIMM3.
- Windows 2000 can't format the RAID IDE HDD when plug in Promise 378 controller.
1.2b5 - (Download)
1.2b7 - (No Download Yet)
1.2b10 - (Download)
- First attempt to fix false temperature readings. Fixes it for some people with Newcastle cores and doesn't fix it for anybody with Clawhammer cores.
1.2b12 - (Download)
- Second attempt to fix false temperature readings. Fixes it for some people with Newcastle cores and some people with Clawhammer cores.
1.3b1 - (Download)
- Another attempt to fix temperature problems?
- Possibly fixes cold boot/power light issues?
1.2 Official - (Download)
1. This is AWARD BIOS release
2. This BIOS fixes the following problems of the previous version:
- System can't resume from S3 sometimes when install USB device.
- Support K8 Sempron CPU.
- Turn off keyboard LED in S3.
--Quick Guide for flashing BIOS, provided by MSI--
1. Create a MS-DOS boot diskette, then copy the the .exe and the bios file to the floppy disk. Both of these files can be found in the package you downloaded.
2. Press "Delete" and go to BIOS setup while computer bootup.
Check BIOS advanced features and see if BIOS flash write control is enabled
(This option must be enabled. If you can not find this setting, it means the BIOS can be
flashed.)
3. Boot from MS-DOS boot diskette and get a:\> prompt.
4. Type "", then press ENTER
5. The flash program will then ask "Do you want to save BIOS?", please press "N" for no. The when you see Press 'Y' to program or 'N' to Exit, please press "Y" to continue.
6. After flashing complete, remove floppy and reset the system .
7. Press DELETE or F1 when prompted at first reboot after flashing.
8. Load BIOS optimized defaults, then save settings and exits.
Drivers & Needed Files:
(Note: All these drivers are for Windows XP.)
Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.40
(Please use at your own risk, these are LEAKED drivers. Password for the .zip file is "ocworkbench rules". Also, you will need to rename the WinXP_2K folder in IDE to either WinXP or Win2K else the installer doesn't pick it up.) Thanks for the link Wonkanoby!
*NEW* Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 5.03
More leaked drivers? Seems some parts of the drivers are older and some are newer.
1. Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Web Install) -or- Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Full Install)
2. Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Web Install) -or- Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Full Install)
3. Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.24
4. AMD Athlon 64 Processor Driver Version 1.1.0.14
5. Nvidia Video Card Driver Version 56.72 -or- Omega Nvidia Video Card Driver Version v1.5303
(The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard Nvidia drivers.)
5. ATI Video Card Driver Version 4.7 -or- Omega ATI Video Card Driver Version 2.5.51
(The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard ATI drivers.)
6. Onboard Sound Driver (Realtek AC'97 Audio Codec) Version A3.61
It is HIGHLY reccomended that you install the drivers/needed files in the order listed above. Please note that there are two #5's because you either install one or the other depending on your video card, do not install both of them.
You will come across a problem here though. You can't install the chipset drivers without installing the Windows service pack and DirectX first, but the Windows service pack and DirectX installs need the internet to download files and you won't have working internet until you install the chipset drivers. Here's what I did to get around this. Instead of downloading the web install versions of Windows service pack and DirectX, download the full version and and put them along with all the other drivers on a backup hard drive or burn them to a CD, this way you will have all the drivers you need when it's time to install them and none of them will require the internet to download files.
Another note when installing drivers. Apparently the Nvidia chipset drivers also come with drivers for the onboard sound, but people seem to agree that the Realtek onboard sound drivers are better. When you are installing the Nvidia chipset drivers, just be sure to uncheck the box for sound drivers when it asks you which drivers you would like to install. Now you can safely install the Realtek drivers without any chance of conflicting sound drivers. Thanks for the tip Wonkanoby!

The installer still reccomends to install it beforehand for full USB 2.0 functionality... I would have put what you said in there but I wanted to keep it as simple as possible.
oh. IIRC the installer just says USB 2.0 will be fully functional after SP1 is installed. So after you install SP1 you go into device manager and u click update driver and it will auto search and update the driver.
Simplicity-wise, i guess its pretty much equal. It might take less preparation to just copy DX9 full onto a CD and install that first, then nforce driver, then right away you have yoru internet connection.
but i dunno.. i guess i will try it your way this time when my RMA"d board comes.
i will be fomratting and doing a fresh install later on today and will let you know if i come across any problems

I need to uninstall Apple Software Update program but can't. Message reads: "There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program requirement for this install to complete could not be run." I have XP

Following steps in support.apple. iTunes was uninstalled with no problem, This was 2nd step and 2nd error was "fatal error during installation" I left everything as it appeared and no further steps were taken. I saw instructions for other OS "fixes" to these error messages, but not XP. Am aware it is no longer supported, but, my desktop is not designed for any OS but XP. Was uninstalling to fix a problem logging to my account within iTunes, and, was getting error "no connection to internet" Diagnosed it and found the secure server was rejecting my log in attempts, but internet connection was fine. Have Avast and Malwarebytes apps and, after running two sessions each, found Trojans which were quarantined. Rebooted and still getting same error. Uninstalling was last resort.
Help! If I hadn't already uninstalled iTunes, I would let it go since I could still access my music and other media. My iPod and iPhone would have just had to survive without the ability to sign in to my account, but, I needed to update my address to use my debit card for a storage upgrade and it was rejected because I just moved and the account needed to be corrected to reflect the change

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

10.2 crashes when I try to convert old libraries for use in the new software. Is there a workaround for this? Or will i have to continue using the previous version to complete older projects?

Final Cut Pro X 10.2 crashes when I try to convert old libraries for use in the new software. Is there a workaround for this? Or will I have to continue using the previous version to complete older projects? the only foreseeable solution is to begin any new projects on 10.2 or importing footage on 10.2 and starting form scratch--which is something i definitely don't want to do or have time to do. ANY advice, thoughts, or opinions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Running 10.10.3 // MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) // 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 // 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Exactly the same problem with me.
Some other threads advice to remove fonts, clean the caches, remove add ins but nothing works consistenty, for some it looks like it works, for me it failed.
What I did not try yet, was to move the Render files out of the malicious library to trash.

Aha! Workaround for site corruption in iWeb '06 '08 updates

I think I have found a workaround for a problem that's been plaguing me and no doubt other people who've bought iWeb '08 and used it to update an older site from iWeb '06 (skip to bottom for solution). This is relevant even after the 2.0.1 update that Apple shipped today.
My iWeb project contains multiple sites, which I use to group photo albums. I found repeatedly that after I updated the site, made a change, and saved the project, a lot of the bitmap image files needed for pages with photo albums or other graphical embellishments were just gone from the project. Looking into the Domain.sites package (Finder: Show Package Contents) confirmed this - all the .jpg, .png files etc. just got trashed the first time I did a save (although the pages all looked ok after the upgrade but before the save!)
At first I thought that the last site added to my multi-site project was spared at the expense of other 'sites' visible in the sidebar. Then I realized that only pages that had been viewed in iWeb after the update were spared! Generally I would view the pages in the bottom/last site as these were the ones I was currently working on - and these were spared.
So I did an experiment - I opened (yet another) copy of my iWeb '06 backup in iWeb '08, and after the update but before saving I clicked on every page (thereby viewing it) in the whole site - and I have around 50 pages in about ten sites. Then I made a change to a single page, and saved the project. The fact that I had viewed all the pages seemed to make the problem go away! There were no missing photos or embedded bitmaps!
*So the short version of the problem is:* any pages that have not been viewed within iWeb after updating a Domain.sites file (what I call the project) from '06 to '08 will have all associated bitmap image files deleted.
*The solution:* immediately after updating the site, and before making any edits or saving, you must click on the sidebar entry for every page in the whole project (to view it in the editing window). In my case this meant also clicking on every entry of a blog, to display it.
Conclusion: there must be some book-keeping of the database that supports iWeb that is not synchronized with the persistent store on disk unless a page is actually viewed.
Hope this works for others, and that Apple gets a proper fix out ASAP. The 2.0.1 update issued today did not fix the problem for me - only the above workaround did.

Hi Rick,
Sounds like my story, too. I have had some time to experiment on two different Macs (one G4 and one MacBook Pro). After losing the formatting and photos on one Mac after upgrading, I decided that I was going to test some theories on the other Mac prior to upgrading to iWeb '08. This is what I found - and what worked:
Test 1:
MacBookPro on iLife '06. I upgraded to iLife '08. I opened iWeb and noted that it did not recognize my original domain: iWeb '08 asked me to locate it or create a new one. I selected "choose" and selected the domain that I had created in iWeb '06 (user/library/application support/iweb). The site opened, performed the required update and opened up. I noticed immediately that some of the photos did not appear on some of the pages. Each time iWeb '08 was closed and reopened, more photos, sometimes different photos, would disappear. All that would remain was a grey placecard with a question mark in the middle (and the warning that the links were now missing). I even went as far as putting the photos back into position, saving and closing iWeb '08. But when I opened iWeb '08 again, the photos were missing...again.
I rebuilt the entire site.
Test 2:
Powerbook G4 on iLife '06. BEFORE updating to iLife '08, I used the original iWeb '06 to publish the entire site to a local folder on my HD (as a security measure). Next, I created a copy of my domain (another security measure) and moved the original domain from 'user/library/application support/iweb' to my desk top. I then proceeded to upgrade to iLife '08. After upgrading, I opened iWeb '08 and received the notification that iWeb '08 needed to either create a domain or I needed to choose a domain. Since I moved my domain out of 'library/application support/iweb', I elected to create a new domain and saved it to the same location (library/application support/iweb).
The new domain was created, iWeb '08 opened, I selected a template, then saved it and closed the program.
Using Finder, I examined the new domain just created by iWeb '08. Using the 'get info' command, I noticed that the new domain has the extension ".sites2." The original domain created in iWeb '06 has the extension ".sites."
I took my original iWeb '06 domain and used the finder "get info" command to manually change the extension from ".sites" to ".sites2." I got the warning asking me if I was sure I wanted to use ".sites2," and I selected yes, use ".sites2."
Using the (original) domain just modified in the last step, now with the extension ".sites2", I inserted it into the 'user/library/application support/iweb' folder, replacing the domain file created during the start up of iWeb '08.
I then opened iWeb '08.
After a brief moment, iWeb '08 opened my domain revealing all four of my original web sites, complete and intact. After iWeb '08 updated the domain, I saved it, closed iWeb '08 and reopened it a few times before I was satisfied that EVERYTHING was working fine.
In conclusion, I found that by changing the domain (created in iWeb '06) file extension to ".sites2", I was able to use iWeb '08 to successfully open it, complete and intact.
I hope you may still have the opportunity to try this on your Mac. I also hope that you have good results.
Cheers, Bryan

Multiple "FAILED UPDATES" warnings for CS5 Design Premium

I am not good at forums and hope this is the right place. If not, please someone guide me because I need help.
I have gotten a failed update warning many times on my Win7 Ultimate machine after trying to do a maintenance update on my CS5 Design Premium. Does anyone know what to do? With all due respect I was angered to learn from Prakesh via chat support that I had to turn to the forums for help with a software update issue!! I thought forums were for learning how to use features of the software, not what I would consider a software technical issue. Is this common with ADOBE?
I also have CS6 Production Premium but haven't encountered any update issues with it.......yet.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated. I spent THOUSANDS of dollars on these 2 packages and can't believe I can't make a call to ADOBE!

update manually, http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

I would like to connect a printer that requires OS 10.6 or newer. My MacBook is currently using OS 10.5.8. In searching for a software update, I am told no updates are needed. How can I upgrade my OS to 10.6 or better?

I would like to connect a printer that requires OS 10.6 or newer. My MacBook is currently using OS 10.5.8. In searching for a software update, I am told no updates are needed (and am given no option for updating my OS). How can I upgrade my OS to 10.6 or newer?

You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to OSX 10.5 or the .11 added to OSX 10.4..
An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
10.5 Leopard was written for Power PC Macs with code added to force it to run on Intel processors.
10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
10.7 Lion ($19.99) used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
10.8 Mountain Lion ($19.99) is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It can only run on the Late 2008 through Mid 2010 MacBooks. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.
10.9 Mavericks is pure 64 bit and is a free download from the App store.
The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks which are downloads only.
System Requirements for 10.6:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.

Screen goes black, shut the lid for a few minutes, open the lid the turn on chime comes on and the screen comes back to life. The computer itself has continued to update just no screen. After a few minutes goes black again. Is logic board going bad?

Screen goes black, shut the lid for a few minutes, open the lid the turn on chime comes on and the screen comes back to life. The computer itself has continued to update just no screen. After a few minutes goes black again. Is logic board going bad or graphic card issue? Trying to decide if computer is worth repairing as it was made in 2007.

It does sound like you might have a faulty video connection. See if you can make a Genius Bar appointment at your local Apple Store.

Can my iWeb '08 site be fixed,or do I need to just wait for an iWeb update?

Ever since my "upgrade" to iWeb '08, the text in my webpages does not appear. I haven't changed any fonts or colors. I have had to put my website back to it's iWeb '06 version.
Cyclosaurus mentioned that my "text box elements has attribute style.visibility set to hidden" and that I might be able to correct it if I were javascript saavy, I should be able to turn visibility attribute to visible with a few lines of javascript.
How do I do this? Does anyone know any quick javascript that I could cut-and-paste, maybe within an iWeb HTML Widget, that could counteract the "attribute style.visibility set to hidden"? Perhaps I can do this until Apple fixes this Bug/Glitch in iWeb '08.
Can my iWeb '08 site be fixed,or do I need to just wait for an iWeb update? Please help.
Thanks.
