No option where to install XP
I have Leopard on my mini and formatted my drive for XP. When the XP install gets to the blue screen asking where to install, I do not get the options where to install mentioned in the BootCamp instructions, I just get Windows asking what to do (install, repair, quit). I cannot get out of this screen at this juncture. I take out the disc and then I get the "unbootable drive..." message.
Does anyone experience the same?
Thanks
I have the same problem. I don't get an option on which partition to install Windows too, even though I have successfully created a bootcamp partition (as it can be seen in my desktop).
I only get the 1 partition (which is the Mac partition) to select.
I only have this problem with my new iMac. I don't have the problem with my Macbook
Help!

Firefox is connecting to the Internet by itself (i.e., I have not opened the browser) and then installing updates (e.g., Firefox 28 today) even though I have checked the option under Advanced to "Check for updates, but let me choose where to install." I am using Windows 7 on an HP EliteBook behind my company's firewall.
Reset your firefox and try once again!!!
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Hi. I am reinstalling Macbook Pro OS X from the "question mark icon". During process, there is a question "select the disk where to install Mac OS X" but there is no option/selection in the box. I really need your help guys. I need it badly. :'(
If you got the question mark and you do not see any partition to install OS X to, it is not good.
Close the OS X installer by pressing the red button at the top left corner of the Install OS X window, and open Disk Utility. Then, look at the left sidebar and tell me if you see your hard drive. You should see something like this:
Do not worry if you do not see Macintosh HD or if the option with an arrow shows a different name. This is normal.
If you see it, choose it, go to the Erase tab and erase the drive. Finally, close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X. You will lose everything if you do not have a backup.
If you do not see the drive, it is damaged and it has to be replaced. You can replace the hard drive of a MacBook Pro without voiding the warranty, and any 2'5" SATA hard drive is valid. If you are not an experienced user or you do not want to go inside the MacBook, take it to an Apple Store or reseller. -
Hi,
I have following architecture:
- Server 1 - ODI installed with option Server
- Client 1 - ODI installed with option Client
- Client 2 - ODI installed with option Client
- Server 2 - Oracle DB installed - ODI Repositories created
- Server 3 - Oracle DB - source system
- Server 4 - MS SQL Server - source system
- Server 5 - Oracle DB installed - target system
I not sure where to install agents for this architecture:
- on Server 1?
or
- on Servers 3 or 4 (source systems)
or
- on Server 5 (target system)
What solution will be the best one in this case?
Thanks in advance!It is best to install the agent as close to the target as possible. So, in your case it will be on Server 5.
Moreover, since you have only one target, then you have the advantage that you can install only one agent and it works.
Just keep in mind, that while installing the agent on the Server 5,
Server2, server3 and server4 should be visible to Server 5.
To explain more the above statement,
We have Filesystems FS1, FS2 on which the source files are located.
And the agent is located on ORADB1 which is the target Oracle DB. So, the filesystems FS1 and FS2 are visible to the system on which ORADB1 is installed and hence the agent on ORADB1 can also see the filesystems and hence access the files for processing.

Obtain pacman --nosave option in PKGBUILD install script
Can I get to the --nosave option in the install script of a PKGBUILD? Rather than tell users how to fully uninstall a package I'd like to make the install script do it. If they don't specify --nosave then I leave a few things they might want for a reinstall. If they specify --nosave then I delete everything.
I don't see it where it needs to be on pre_remove and post_remove.They will use pacman and it's not hidden in the install script. It's quite normal for install scripts of big packages to delete files. What I want is for the install script to delete more files if they use
pacman -R --nosave mypackage
This means that the user is not going to use mypackage any more and wants all the slop removed, often because they think the config is broken and a brand new config might fix it.
The problem is that PKGBUILD backup=() is so horribly implemented that I tend to avoid it. backup=() works fine on upgrade but is borked for remove/reinstall. I can't have users chasing down pacsave files because they had to temporarily remove a package. I need to be able to remove/reinstall packages with or without alterations to the configuration, as specified by the user. The only way I can get config files to be managed correctly is to keep them out of the package and out of the backup array. I delete them in the install script when the conditions are right. The backup array isn't the least bit capable of handling config folders, temp folders, log folders, database entries, and other stuff found in big packages.
Without some help in the install file it's either slop or scorched earth--and the PKGBUILD-er makes the decision.
There aren't many packages that need this so for now I just put cleanup instructions in the PKGBUILD. -
I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to.. When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists." It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.
cactisken
You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
What specific Window operating system are you using?
Let us go through the usual drill...
1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
Local Disk C
Program Files (x86)
Common Files
Adobe
and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
computer as Premiere Elements 13?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.

Where to install Thunderbird on Mac OSX for multiple users.
Hello,
I would like to install the email program Mozilla Thunderbird on my Mac OSX (10.4.6) computer which is set up with several different user accounts. I am not sure where to install it so that everyone may be able to use it. I would like to install it once so that everyone may use it rather than installing it multiple times (once for each user).
As you might already know, in Mac OSX when you install a program in the main applications folder, it is available for everyone who uses the computer (available to all accounts). However, the trouble is, that although the actual Thunderbird program is available to all users the profile is not. The profile obviously is an important component of the Thunderbird mail program as it contains all the actual mail messages. When Thunderbird is installed, by default the profile folder is placed in the users home Library folder at:
users home folder/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/<Profile name>/
This location make it impossible for other users to access the profile and therefore Thunderbird will not work for the other users.
What should I do?
I have a couple solutions, however I would like to ask for some advice on what others do in this situation which I am sure is fairly common.
Here are my solutions:
1. Move the profile folder to a custom location that is accessible by all users in OSX such as the global Library folder (rather than the user's Library folder). Path of global Library folder:
/library/
Then let Thunderbird know it was moved to this custom location using Thunderbird's profile manager.
2. Try to figure out a way in mac OSX that allows the profile folder at this default location:
users home folder/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/<Profile name>/
to be accessible by all users.
Ownership and permissions need to be changed for the profile folder maybe?
3. Install thunderbird multiple times - once for each user - each with their own profile. The problem with this is then there will be multiple installations of the same program and they will not be able to share the same profile folder - which is what I would like to do - if possible.
I have a feeling that solution 1 is the more logical solution.
PS I am using Mac OS 10.4.6 (Tiger) with Thunderbird 1.5.0.4
Thanks for any advice.Yup, its me again Always seem to have a question for the group
Thanks Mulder and Scott! I am sure glad I asked for your advice. I am completely new to the multi-user environment of OSX - as you can tell. (I guess I am still in OS9 thinking mode where there was only one user.)
Scott wrote:
"Mail can be configured to download any new email, but not remove it from the server until it is removed from the Mail application. This way, the email can be downloaded to multiple clients across multiple accounts."
Interesting. Thanks for pointing this out Scott. Good to know. This would seem to me to be similar to IMAP in some ways. This would be a good way to work in a multi-user environment. This is good info to be aware of.
It sounds like an interesting way to work.
Thanks to both of you for steering me aware from the difficulty of attempting to place the profile folder outside the home directory. This sounds like it would have been more work than necessary.
Why am I not using Apple's Mail program? Good question. I thought I would try out Thunderbird for a while - and maybe switch to Apple Mail later - just to see which one I prefer. I am a web developer and I have always liked the open source community and I thought it would be beneficial for me to become as familiar as possible with all the Mozilla products (Firefox and Thunderbird). As well, it keeps me somewhat on the same wavelength as my PC friends, of whom many use this program too. I don't want to be too much out of touch with my mac. I might try Mail later. Thunderbird has been great so far. It has excellent spam recognition abilities and you can train it too to detect spam.
Scott the "Family account" idea is an awesome idea. Thanks.
I have learned a lot from this post. This gives me a few logical solutions. As Mulder points out it is best to keep users' profiles separate. This makes it simpler. Excellent advice. I could still install the Thunderbird application in the global application folder and then each user account can open this Thunderbird application from their own account and configure the mail client with their own profile. All users will be using the same Thunderbird application but with their own profiles. Yes, thats it. I tried this out and it seems to work now - didn't seem to work earlier because I didn't know what I was doing
Another idea could be, if I really need to share one single profile, would be to follow Scotts advice and just set up a "Family account". Very simple solution. Nice idea.
So, those are the two top solutions.
Furthermore, I could use a mix of both strategies. For mail accounts that could be shared ([email protected]) I could create a "Family account" in OSX, as Scott detailed above, and then for mail accounts that are for each individual user ([email protected]), I could be sure they have separate profiles as detailed in Mulder's post.
Thanks for all these helpful ideas! -
How To Tell If You Have Optional Installs ALREADY Installed?
Just got a new 21.5-inch iMac with Snow Leopard already installed. Is there any way of determining if any of the Snow Leopard Optional Installs are installed on your system?
For example, how can I tell if I have Rosetta already installed or some of the Language Translations?
Is there any way to remove any Optional Installs without completing wiping and re-installing Snow Leopard?Just the default install does not contain any optional.
Rosetta is not installed by default, however if you open an application that requires rosetta your Mac will prompt you to install it (and do it for you).
You can remove all printers except the one(s) you use in /Library/Printers.
You can also remove additional languages with Monolingual

There was some updayts for my iPad 4 automatically downloaded. After installing it, the iPad began to restart itself every few minutes.
I tryed to update my iPad using iTunes. After connecting to MacBook Pro, where is installed all latest software, iPad is recognised as "iPad", Serial Number: n/a. iTunes run recovery mode, trying to restore iPad firmware, and in the end unknown error occured (3). Tried many times, not results. And now iPad stays only in recovery mode, can't switch it off. How can I solve this problem please?When I restart my iPad the connect to iTunes comes up and stays on until it shuts down again, I have read a report from Apple support suggesting I reinstall iTunes so I might try that again and also your suggestion which i shall also try, but thanks again - rg1547

I have a problem with Imovie. Just brought an macbook 15 retina , iLife install and Imovie was working. I than did a data migration from my old macbook pro and now it crashes on start up. I tried to re-install from app store but no option to re-install, just installed and it greyed out.
Well, my two-month-old MBP has no qualms about booting from a no-name external USB HD I put together...
Given that is is a common point of failure, I would imagine a large Apple Store should keep a stock of HD's on hand.
Now since you're a bit desperate and the genie pops up til Saturday and you seem to be the enterprising kind, let's try an experiment: if you have room enough in the external HD and assuming it isn't a Time Machine volume, why don't you plug it in, stick the Install CD and see if the installer lets you select the external drive as the install target. If you can install Leopard on it, on top of the backup without reformatting, and the Mac can boot from the drive afterwards, at least you would have some functionality restored and would be able to pull your stuff from the internal HD. Apple says booting from USB drives is not supported but that does not equate to not possible; some brands do work. Risks? Always. You can always lose your backup. Like I said, a challenge for an enterprising gal....
Next time around, consider having a bootable external clone at hand for rainy days. I keep three myself...
P.S. Since I'll be in the Dallas-FW area in late June, I can volunteer with the confetti.... -

I just downloaded iPhoto 9.5 to replace my old ver. 7.x. Downloaded the library upgraded but have no idea where it installed as it is not listed in Applications. Opened iPhoto added my Library (12.5 GB) but iPhoto shows no pictures. In fact, iPhoto indicates that I have zero photos in the library while at the same time indicating the file size as 12.5 GB.
If your old iPhoto version was iPhoto 7, you need to run the iPhoto Library upgrader: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1523
It will install itself in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
Run it, and after that, you should be able to open your iPhoto Library with iPhoto '11. -
Hey, I have an unopened iPad mini that I won at work and I'm wondering if there's an upgrade option where I can exchange this for an iPad mini with retina display? Thanks
Take it to an Apple store and ask. All they can do is say no. They may ask for a purchase receipt to make sure it's not stolen.

Advice needed on where to install Bpel 10.1.3 (we use OracleAS 10.1.2)
If I understand correctly, Bpel 10.1.3 cannot be installed on the middle tier of OracleAS 10.1.2. Unfortunately, we are not in a position to upgrade OracleAS at this point in time, but we want to use Bpel 10.1.3. I understand that Bpel portlets can be "deployed" from Bpel 10.1.3 and used in OracleAS 10.1.2, so this is good.
Would it be feasible to use the Bpel Process Manager 10.1.3 Developers version with Oracle Lite (Windows) in a production environment? If so, I can use Jdeveloper to create the bpel, deploy the process to the windows box with bpel process manager 10.1.3 with Oracle Lite, deploy the Bpel portlets and use them in OracleAS 10.1.2 ...
Given the goal of developing BPEL 10.1.3 processes and using the bpel portlets in OracleAS 10.1.2, and suggestions on where to install Bpel 10.1.3 and what version to install?
Thanks in advance -
KentHi,
if you install both on the same server, you should plan:
which ports you want to assign to which iAS
is there enough RAM?
"they should not conflict with each other?"
no. but test it, like everything you want to use in production.
Yes, you can install it on a middle tier (just read the installation guides....)
