Playbook Downgrade Error on Mac

Hi,
When following the instructions to downgrade my Playbook from OS 2 to 1.0.7 on my Mac, I get the following error when clicking on "Repair":
"BlackBerry Desktop Manager failed to extract the software image...You need at least 600mb of free space"
I have 200+GB of free space on my hard drive.
The first time I tried, it was working and I got disconnected. Since then, I have been getting this error. Did DM maybe download a partial file that it now tries to open up each time, as opposed to re-downloading the file needed to downgrade? I tried looking for where this file could be stored, but no luck. Any thoughts?

First I would like you to do a Back Up of your PlayBook using your computer and BlackBerry Desktop Software.
This can be downloaded for free from http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/
After the Back Up is complete I need you to unplug your PlayBook and then push and hold down the Power Button until the unit Force Powers Off.
Now, while Desktop Software is still open on your computer and the PlayBook Powered Off, Connect the PlayBook to your computer.
You should see and error screen from Desktop Software pop up that has the options to Retry, Update, or Cancel.
QUICKLY choose the Update option.
This will erase all the information off of your PlayBook and Re-Write the Software back onto it. Once it's complete your PlayBook will need to go back through the setup wizard, and you can then perform a restore using Desktop Software to return your information. The only thing that won't come back after the restore are the apps that you downloaded from App World but they can be easily Re-Installed using the My World feature in App World.

Error updating .mac message...FIx doesn't work???

I get the "there was an error updating .mac" error message when trying to publish my website. I've tried the File > Publish all to .mac route and I still get the same error message. Any ideas what I do now? Any other suggestions or alternatives?

It is standard Mountain Lion error due to the networking ability which is comparable to wet string. (actually that was lion.. it dried out some with Mountain Lion.. higher in the hills perhaps!!)

And the above is even a little out of date.. you might need to do a reset to the TC.

.qlt file gives 415 error on mac, not on Windows

I encoded H.264 files (hinted for streaming) and placed them on my server (OSX server 10.3). From Mac: rtsp://path/file.mov works fine. Also http://path/file.mov works fine om Mac.
To make it more compatible I generated .qtl file, both from Quicktime Pro and texteditor. Same result.
When I paste the url in the browser: http://path/file.qtl, it performes OK on Windows 2000, but in Safari and Firefox(Mac) I get the Q sign and after a short while error 415, unsupported media type.
Also tried a javascript, xml, etc,but get the same error on Mac.
Have no idea what to do. The files in themselves stream OK in very good quality (H264 is really good, 300 kbs) Example: rtsp://212.45.53.76/aanbidding/vineyard/LW1Introductie.mov
Example of the qtl file: http://212.45.53.76/aanbidding/vineyard/LW_1.qtl
Any help would be a very much appreciated.
Thanks, Rolof

Error message in iWeb 07 'publishing error to .Mac'

Hi there
I know there were a few questions related to the changes from .Mac to ME and I asked one. What I am now experiencing is that even though my new entries are all published and can be read online, in iWeb, everything is still marked red (unpublished) and once the publishing process is done, I get a message 'Error publishing to .Mac'. Well, I can well imagine that there is an error, since .Mac is no longer continued, but is there a way to get rid of this message and see published entries in 'blue' again?
I am happy if there is no solution, it is more cosmetic anyway. But would appreciate a short answer.
Thanks

Chris ~ You're welcome. MobileMe was a re-branding of the .Mac name — so any reference to MobileMe also relates to .Mac.

Problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums: Lost all blog entries or all comments or unable to publish, etc. If you switch to a dedicated blogging platform you're likely to have a better experience. For a success story using a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
_To blog or not to blog_
...And there's a way to link to an external page (such as a blog) from iWeb's navigation bar.

Your problem is definitely not related to 'Community Feedback and Suggestions'. And I cannot see any relationship to Oracle (at least according to the given informations).

Keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5

keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5 Followed all the instructions for uninstalling and clean installing. Just wont install

Make sure you have it set to "show hidden files"
Check BOTH places and you have to restart Finder
Press "Quit This" and then go to the Finder Dock icon and right click it
Select "Open"
Open TIme Machine
Go back to September 28 or earlier.
You'll see the mach_kernel file in the Mac HD directory
(I can't show it in the TM because screenshots don't work while it's open but here it is in my MAc HD)
Right click it and select "Restore to"
Then, when it goes back to Finder, choose the Mac HD directory and click OK.
It will place the mach_kernel back where it was and you can install software again
DON'T FORGET to go back and hide your files (and restart Finder) again, or you'll have a mess with the clutter of hidden files everywhere.

"Internal error occured", mac 10.9.5

Hi,
I've been at it the whole afternoon and still cannot find a way to get Adobe Reader to work on my macbook. (iOS 10.9.5)
I followed Mike M's instruction on this thread:
Adobe Reader 11 - An internal error occurred - Mac OS X 10.9.1
And tried to go into safe mode to install it.
You guys found a workaround?

nope.
did you experience the same problem and did it help?

Publish Error: There was an error updating .Mac

Hello,
This is the first time I have had any problems with iWeb when trying to publish a site. After the site and pages are created, I keep getting the error:
"Publish Error: There was an error updating .Mac".
- I have iWeb 1.1.2
- I am not over quota.
- My account is not expired.
- I've tried multiple times over a 1.5h period.
- I've tried closing/restarting iWeb, rebooting my machine, and manually deleting all files in my .Mac/Web/iWeb folder in case any got corrupted somehow.
- I've emailed tech support about this too.
Hopefully this is just a server issue on Apple's side and is temporary. Anybody experience problems around today?
Cheers.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Okay I am very relieved to hear that people out there are experiencing what seems to be the exact same issue (and that I don't have to suffer through Apple support). I as well, after experiecing this issue, was totally unable to login to my website (password kept getting rejected).
As of right now - 12h after first experiencing this issue - I still cannot publish to iWeb.
When trying what was suggested earlier, a lowercase login, I received a new and more interesting error message:
Publish Error: An error occurred while publishing file “navbarseparator3.png.” Try choosing File > Publish All.
I then tried to "Publish All" and viola - it worked! What is fascinating to me is that I have used the same login/password for a year now with no problems and how a single capital letter in a login can cause so much grief. Hmm. Anyways, thank you Mr. Apnewbie for your suggestion.
I think .Mac is a superb service - however for the price, there are still some very fundamental kinks that it seems they didn't throughouly test out at Apple before charging people/releasing their software. Mainly, all the kinks related to multiple passwords with multiple web sites (and obviously logins!).
Mac OS X (10.4.9)
I'm marking this as "solved" (though why we all mysteriously had the same odd experience at the same time is yet unresolved. The solution suggested above has worked for me. Please try and comment here if it works for you too. I hope it does.

Try to publish ical - error "your .Mac account information is not correct"

I try to publish a calendar from my home computer so that I can see it on my work laptop (both Macs); and I get an error "Your .Mac account configuration is not correct. Calendar could not be published. Your .Mac account information is not correct. You cannot publish to .Mac until you have configured your .Mac account." Its setup and configured. Any ideas?

I had the same thing and did the following two things which got it to publish. Not sure which one fixed it but give it a go.
1. Open your .mac pane in system preferences. Sign out and sign back in.
2. Change the name of the calendar you're trying to publish.
Good luck!

Is it possible to downgrade a new Mac Mini from OSX 10.7 to OSX 10.5? If so, how is this done?

No. You can't install earler versions of the OS than that with which (any) Mac was originally delivered.

Errors installing MaC OS

I'm helping a friend reinstall Mac OS. I have used both a Tiger DVD and the software install discs that came with it. I can erase the HD (which I did) but when I install the software it makes it about 10 min in and then says there were errors installing(using both discs gets the same error), please restart. Any ideas? Thanks

New blog entries experience "error updating .Mac", and no "add comments"

Blog always worked fine. Now new blog entries get error updating .Mac message. New post does appear online, but there is no Add Comments option, despite it being selected in the inspector. Also, the blog main page doesn't show a title in the title bar at top. Might this have something to do with the new Mobile Me features (which I haven't tried or signed up for). When I delete the new posting and publish, it publishes fine. This error even happens with the template pg, so it's not anything to do with my formatting. Thanks for your help.

I have not tried publishing a new Blog entry since the new "me" thing, but I did try just a text edit on an existing Entry and republished the Entry. It seemed to function normally.
However, all of my Comments are missing from all my Blog entries - although the hit counts are still there.
And my Slide Shows won;t work and thumbnails won't enlarge on my photo pages.
Everything was working perfectly before this big "improvement" we just got.
I sure hope this is temporary or I just might throw a fit. There was a lot of valuable stuff in those comments, and if there won;t be a Comments function at all, I won't be able to keep my blog at mac. com or me whatever.
Why fix what isn't broken?
jessica
