OS X and OS 9.2.2 aren't playing nicely with each other

Hi! Im'm having a problem with OS X and OS 9.2.2 cohabitating on my computer. Here's what I've done so far:
I have 5 drives on my computer: 1) Dedicated to OS 9.2.2; 2) Backup for OS 9.2.2 (cannot boot from this drive; it has replaced the Zip drive on ATA bus 0); 3) Dedicated to audio; 4) Dedicated to audio backup; 5) Dedicated to document archive (on SCSI card, cannot boot).
I initialized the audio backup drive (120 gb) and made two partitions: 110 gb for audio backup and 10 gb for OS X. I then installed OS X on the partition successfully.
Since I had problems before, I restarted and booted from my Norton Utilities disk and checked all the other disks. EACH DISK had this error message:
"There is a major error in the Alternate Volume Header Block. The last mounted version is invalid. The Volume Header Block and Alternate store important information about your HFS+ disk, such as the number of files and folders on the disk (6, 2, 36)".
I then repeated the process. Same thing.
What do I do now? Most of my software is older and not written for OS X, and I can't afford updates. Plus, I like OS 9.2.2, particularly for its stability with audio. Help!
Thanks.

Hi Stanley:
Many is the user who has watched Norton wreak havok on their OS X systems. Although Norton is a great tool for OS 9, and I've never had any cause to question its usefullness with OS 9, NEVER use Norton Utilities on any partition with OS X, not even version 8, which was supposedly compatible with OS X.
You don't mention which version of OS X you are installing. There were reports of problems with external OS 9-formatted drives and Jaguar (10.2.6) came out. Are you trying to install Jaguar?

  • My husband and I each have iphones, how can we share the contact and calender info we have have in our iclouds with each other?

    My husband and I each have an iphone 4S, how can we share the contact and calender info we have in our iclouds with each other?

    You can make one or more calendars of one iphone sharable and the other user will be able to have those sharable calanders synced.  Unfortunately, you can't do that with contacts.  But you could go to the computer account used by you or your husband, perform a backup of the contacts (see the file menu), copy the file to the other account used to sync the other iphone, and restore.  It's a manual process that has to be performed periodically, but doable.
    The other method is for each of you to use the same iCloud ID and have both iphones synced to be identical.  But I don't recommend that otherwise you'll each get the same text messages and who knows what else.

  • Airport and Linksys WEP do not play well with each other

    I have a MacBook Pro (15", 2.0ghz, 2gb RAM, 100gb HDD - OSX 10.4.8) connecting to Linksys AP's and/or Router with WEP.
    I can NOT connect to WEP locked Linksys stuff. I have read all over the internets that you just prefix the WEP key with a $, but when I try and do that - OSX will not take the key - it just makes the "dunk" noise that means "you can't do that, stupidhead". I believe this information is for older versions of the Airport software.
    This has happened with my WRT54g at home, as well as two WAP54GP's I just set up at my new office all with the latest / new firmwares.
    Using the same key in Boot Camp/Windows (cut and pasted out of a text file on a USB thumb drive) it works just perfectly. Is there a way to get some more debug level info out of Airport when it tries to connect?
    Here is a screenshot of my config:
    Click me!
    iMac G5 2.0 /\ 15" MacBook Pro /\ Core Solo Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4)   Black iPod Video 30g

    Easiest solution is to use WPA instead, this is actually secure compared to WEP.
    One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
    The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
    One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
    Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.

  • Ipod Nano and really old 20 gb Ipod, will they conflict with each other?

    Hi. I guess I'm pretty lucky as I won a new Ipod Nano, 8gb. I'm very happy with my old 20 gb first edition Ipod. No issues ever with the old one. I'd like to use the new Nano working out, etc. How will Itunes know I have a new Nano and will it conflict w/my old one? Can I set playlists for just the Nano? Can I watch videos on a Nano? Any help would be great on features, do's/don'ts, etc. Thank you for the time.

    Hello Litodeck,
    Since there is no limit to the number of iPods you can have synced to one library and iTunes account, you should have no problems hooking up the new nano. As to how you want to manage each iPod depends. There are number of different possibilities here. I think for the best help and information regarding these methods, I would check out this Apple support document.
    [How to use multiple iPods with one computer|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495]
    As to watching movies on your iPod, yes, you can. You will either have to import videos of your own or purchase them from the iTunes store. On top of that, you will also have to set your iPod up to sync videos from under the Videos tab for your iPod in iTunes.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I Help Apple Care Stop Warring with Each Other and Fix the Problem with My iPhone that They Acknowledge Creating?

    How Do I Help Apple US & Apple Europe Stop Warring With Each Other And Fix The Problem They Created?
    PROBLEM
    Apple will not replace, as promised, the iPhone 5 (A1429 GSM model) that they gave me in London, UK, with an iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model).
    BACKGROUND
    My iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model) was purchased this year in September on an existing Verizon Wireless (VZW) line using an upgrade. The purchase took place in California and the product was picked up using Apple Personal Pickup through the Cerritos Apple Retail Store. I will refer to this phone at my "original" phone.
    The original phone was taken into the Apple Store Regent Street in London, England, UK on November 15, 2012. The reason for this visit was that my original phone's camera would not focus.
    The Apple Store Regent Street verified there was a hardware problem but was unable to replace the part.
    The Apple Store Regent Street had me call the US AppleCare. At first they denied support, but then a supervisor, name can be provided upon request, approved the replacement of my original phone with an iPhone 5 (A1429 GSM model) as a temporary solution until I got back in the US. And approved that the GSM model would be replaced with a CDMA model when I came back to the US. I will refer to the GSM model as the "replacement". They gave me the case number --------.
    The Apple Store Regent Street gave me the replacement and took the original. The first replacement did not work for reasons I do not understand. They switched out the replacement several times until they got one that worked on the T-Mobile nano SIM card that I had purchased in England, UK. Please refer to the repair IDs below to track the progression of phones given to me at the Apple Store Regent Street:
    Repair ID ----------- (Nov 15)
    Repair ID ----------- (Nov 16)
    Repair ID ----------- (Nov 16)
    The following case number was either created in the UK or France between November 15 to November 24. Case number -----------
    On November 19, 2012, I went to France and purchased an Orange nano SIM card. The phone would not activate like the first two repair IDs above.
    On November 24, 2012, I went to the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps. The Genius told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault. They had me call the AppleCare UK.
    My issue was escalated to a tier 2 UK AppleCare agent. His contact information can be provided upon request. He gave me the case number -----------.
    The UK tier 2 agent became upset when he heard that I was calling from France and that the France Apple Store or France AppleCare were not helping me. He told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault.
    The UK tier 2 agent said he was working with engineers to resolve my problem and would call me back the next day on November 25, 2012.
    While at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps, a Genius switched the phone given to from repair ID ----------- with a new one that worked with the French nano SIM card.
    Also, while at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps, I initiated a call with AppleCare US to get assistance because it seems that AppleCare UK was more upset that France was not addressing the issue rather than helping me. I have email correspondance with the AppleCare US representative.
    A Genius at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps switched the replacement with a new GSM model that worked on the French SIM card but would not work if restored, received a software update, or had the SIM card changed. This is the same temporary solution I received from the Apple Store Regent Street in the UK.
    By this point, I had spent between 12-14 hours in Apple Store or on the phone with an AppleCare representative.
    Upon arriving in the US, I went to my local Apple Store Brea Mall to have the replacement switched with a CDMA model. They could not support me. He told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault. My instructions were to call AppleCare US again.
    My call with AppleCare US was escalated to a Senior Advisor, name can be provided upon request, and they gave me the case number -----------. After being on the phone with him for over an hour, his instructions were to call the Apple Store Regent Street and tell them to review my latest notes. They were to process a refund for a full retail priced iPhone 5 64BG black onto my credit card so that I could use that money to buy a new iPhone 5 64GB black at the Apple Store Brea Mall to reoslve the problem.
    The Apple Store Regent Street did not process my refund. He, name can be provided upon request, told me that the AppleCare US did not do a good job reviewing my case, that they were incapable of getting to the bottom of it like they were, and instructed me to call AppleCare US and tell them to review this case number and this repair id. I asked if he read the notes from the AppleCare US Senior Advisor and he would not confirm nor deny. When I offered to give him the case number he accepted but it seemed like would do no good. Our call was disconnected. When I tried calling back the stores automated system was turned on and I could not get back through.
    Now I have the full retail price of an iPhone 5 64GB black CDMA on my credit card and Apple will not process the refund as they said they would.
    I've, at this point, spent between 14-16 hours at Apple Stores or on the phone with AppleCare representatives, and still do not have the problem resolved.
    SOLUTION
    AppleCare US and AppleCare Europe need to resolve their internal family issues without further impacting their customers.
    Apple is to process a refund to my credit card for the cost of a full retail priced iPhone 5 64GB black.
    DESIRED OUTCOMES
    I have an iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model) that works in the US on VZW as it did before I received the replacement phone in the UK.
    Apple covers the cost of the solution because I did not create the problem.
    Apple resolves their internal issue without costing me more time, energy, or money.
    This becomes a case study for AppleCare so that future customers are not impacted like I have been by their support system.
    Does anyone have recommendations for me?
    Thank you!
    <Edited by Host>

    Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
    Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple?

  • I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business.  The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me.  Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts.  Please researc

    I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business.  The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me.  Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts.  Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates.  There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work.  I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently.  Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates.  I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.

    Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

  • I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one?  Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!

    You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

  • I have an I pad2, an iMac desktop and an I phone 5, how do I get them all to be bale to face time with each other, do I need different email addresses, use the phone number, or the sim number in the iPad ? Ay help gratefully received !!

    Graham,
    For the iPad, iMac you need to create verifyible e-mail addresses created with one of the providers such as Yahoo, Gmail,etc.  For the iphone you should use it's phone number, but an e-mail could be used for it too.  If you want to associate these e-mail addresses with a single ID, I'm including a link to give you info about how you can do that. Read it carefully, as it can be a bit confusing.

    Log into each device with your own Apple ID's in Settings > iCloud.
    Then, so you can share preiously purchased apps, log into both devices using the Apple ID used to make those purchases, but ONLY in Settings > iTunes and Apps Stores.
    Verify that each device uses your own Apple IDs in Settings > Facetime and Settings > Messages.

  • Windows 7 computer, and my macbook pro on snow leopard don't see each other?

    My windows 7 computer, and my macbook pro on snow leopard don't see each other. I have configured the windows section under the network prefrences with the required information, and still no luck. Does anyone have any sugestions for me?

    Shouldn't they see each other and let me use each of their files?
    Please pardon the obvious here, but have you checked to make sure that you have enabled the File Sharing option on both computers? You may have already done this, but your post did not mention this, so we can only go with the info that we have.
    If you have not enabled File Sharing, I can't help on Windows, but on your Mac...
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Sharing
    Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
    I imagine that there is a similar setting for the Windows machine
    It would be a good idea to power cycle your entire network as well to make sure that the network is sequenced correctly. Power everything down, order is not important.
    Start your modem first and let it run a moment by itself
    Then start your main router the same way
    Continue starting each device the same way until everything is powered back up

  • HT1386 My husband and I traded ipod with each other. Now, I am unable to put my entire library on the ipod. Only some songs imported. HELP

    My husband and I exchanged ipods with each other. I attempted to import my whole music library to this current ipod. only certain songs imported. Not all. How do I get the WHOLE library to this ipod?

    if I sign in my iTunes on my husband's computer, will it delete his iTunes library?
    LOL!  If Home Sharing deleted the other person's library, then Home Sharing wouldn't have too many users, would it?
    Seriously, Home Sharing sounds like a fine solution to the need you express. 
    However, your question suggests that your library is not backed up, right?  You and your husband should each make a backup of your libraries.

  • Hi my mum has recently gotten a white iphone4 and i have a black iphone4 we both would really want to switch over our phones with each other i was just wondering if there would be any issues would the data contract be switched over???

    please can someone help me i have got a black iphone 4 and my mum has got a white iphone 4 we would like to switch both of our phones with each other we are just worried if the data services and our contracts will be switched over we dont care about our phone music and contacts ok thankyou

    Most carrers won't care if you change phones as long as you are payng for al the services they require.  Since you both have iPhones, it probably won't be an issue, but since we don't know who your carrier is we can't say it they will have a problem with you making that change or not.  The only way to make certain it won't be a problem is to contact your carrier...

    Thank-you

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.
