Power Mac 7600 doesn't start from Mac OS 9.1 CD

I'm trying to boot from a Mac OS 9.1 CD on a Power Mac 7600 I'm trying to bring back to life
but it appears the blinking question mark. I've tried using the "C" command but it simply doesn't boot.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help

One of my favorite pre-G3 Macs! I have one that runs great.
---First, has anyone pulled/replaced/moved RAM modules? My experiences with several 7600's at work back in the 1990s was that the RAM needed to be matched in order in the slots and by size regardless of what the specs and several third-party tech reviews say.
There are eight RAM slots in two groups (of three and five slots) separated by an offset slot for a cache module You should see ID codes on the logic board by each slot: A1, A2, A3, A4; and B1, B2, B3, and B4. You want to load the slots in this order: A1, B1, A2, B2, etc, and match the module size so modules of the same size are paired. My 7600 has this pattern:
A1: 128MB        B1: 128MB
A2: 32MB          B2: 32MB
A3: 16MB          B3: 16MB
A4: 16MB          B3: 16MB
So, if modules don't match, match them and try again
Pairing RAM in this model gives a significant performance boost; the data path goes from 64-bit to 128-bit.
---Is the OS9 disk a full retail install disk or a gray one that came with a newer Mac? That could affect startup, Some disks for much newer Macs may not start a pre-G3 Mac.
---If the commuter has been off wall power for a long time the PRAM battery is likely deader than Yorick. That could affect startup from the hard drive but should not be at play when starting from a CD.
---Another issue that affects old computers that have been stored and moved around is loose cards. Make sure all card and modules are fully seated, especially the processor card.
Anyway, those are some things to consider. Keep us posted!

I record some information to some slides but the presentation doesn't start from the 1st one but from the one I started the recording. What should I do?

I record some information to some slides but the presentation doesn't start from the 1st one but from the one I started the recording. What should I do?
Also, can I use music as backround to some of the slides, not to all of them as I'd like to play videos on the others?

I have reinstalled the drivers. I watched it install the realtec and cirrus drivers. Hovering the mouse over the speaker icon says 'speakers: HP'. They are actually 'Creative'. 'Properties' indicates 'IDT High Definition CODEC' and 'This device is working correctly'.
Driver details gives 'c:\Windows\system32\drivers\dmk.sys'.
There is still no sound, although the little level meter on the control shows a green bar rising and falling.
Obviously, it thinks it's working, but there's no connection to the speakers. They're not muted, either. I checked that too.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.

Config Tool doesn't start from the application list

Hi all,
I have installed Planning, EAS, and Workforce on a server but when I go to configure the tools, the config tool doesn't start from the page where you select the applications to configure. Instead, it starts with all the apps listed with the message: "You have selected the above apps to configure" and it has a Back button but it doesn't work, and it has a Next button and when I press it, it says Done.
I need to configure the database and deploy to the application server.
The Shared services is on a different server and is up and running. Essbase is on a separate server and that's up and running.
I am working with 11.1.1.3 32 bit applications on a 64 bit Windows OS.
If you have run into this, please let me know what am I missing?
Thanks

Hi
First of all I couldnt get your problem as in your query description you have written "sometimes the video doesn't skips a couple of seconds from the beginning even though the value of NetStream.time property is 0" which is contradictory with the query title "Video doesn't start from the beginning".
But anyways I think you should check ns.time in Play.Start there you should get always 0 but in Buffer.Full there may be the case that ns.time is not 0 but has some value but that value is very small less than 1.
If still you have issue please clarify your problem then probably I will be able to answer your query.

Macbook Pro doesn't start from internal disk. How to?

Hi.
My Macbook doesn't startup. I tried to repair it but it isn't possible and now I need to do one last backup copy before format it. But it doesn't pass from the grey apple screen.
I've checked the S.M.A.R.T. and it is OK. What else can I do to start from the internal disk on last time?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Telmo

Hi. Yes, I did. It goes on and on with the grey apple screen.
I just need it to boot one last time to save one Word document that I didn't had the chance to backup.
The internal disk appears on the disk utility when I star from the install disk and I select it to boot but when restart nothing happens.

Maps loader doesn't start from my PC Suite

I just updated the firmware on my 5800 and tried to start using the new navigation software.. it complained that I have old maps, so it deleted them. I updated my PC suite as well as the Map loader software. Now that I tried to start the Map loader from PC suite, it will only jump to a Nokia maps site and doesn't start. The previous version worked ok, but I guess it only gives my phone maps which are not supported. I've tried rebooting, reinstalling, checking updates...
Any suggestions how to get the Map loader working or the maps to my phone?

Hi. Go to http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/ovi-maps/downloads-and-services , and download the Nokia map loader.

SQLplus doesn't start from batch when using host comand

Hello.
We have a form to export some data from old (7) database. For that we use batch file that runs sql script.
There is button in form. The code on trigger looks like:
declare
     HostString Varchar2(50);
Begin
     HostString := 'C:\Path\File.bat';
     Host(HostString);
end;
That batch file calls another batch file:
c:
cd c:\Path
call NewFile.bat >> Data.log
And in NewFile batch we call sql script like:
c:
cd "c:\Path"
set ORACLE_HOME=c:\Oracle\Path
C:\Oracle\Path\BIN\SQLPLUS.EXE user/pass@db @C:\Path\Script.sql
@echo End
exit
In that script the code looks like:
spool c:\Path\File.txt
desc table;
spool off;
exit
If we run first batch in cmd everything works. When we use forms, form is working forever, freezes.
And Data.log file looks like:
(14:53:48,14) >c:
(14:53:48,14) >cd "c:\Path"
(14:53:48,14) >set ORACLE_HOME=c:\Oracle\Path
(14:53:48,14) >C:\Oracle\Path\BIN\SQLPLUS.EXE user/pass@db @C:\Path\Script.sql
Here it freezes, log file is locked.
We are using forms 10 on AS 10. But we must use SQLPlus 8 to connect to old database (7) in that case.
Maybe this is the problem?
Any idea why this doesn't work from forms, but works when run manually from cmd?
Thanks.

U didnt mention version of forms and whether running in client server or web.
Incase of web note that host will execute on application server and hence u need to use webutil_host.
If u are on forms 6i/client server forms try invoking calc using host. If it works fine then u may have to use the code host('cmd /start c:\orant\bin\sqlplus.exe')

The WF doesn't start from FV50

Hi all,
I need to link a custom WF to FV50 tx when a G/L document (type Cost Adjustment) is saved as completed and I was sure the right B.O. was FIPP, but this WF doesn't start even if the start event is FIPP.completed (active) and there's a start condition in SWB_COND tx about document type = CA.
Do you know there's another B.O. to use?
Thanks.
Angelo

Thanks Ute,
in fact the BO is right and the workflow now starts, but there's a problem about the start event: if I create a new document via FV50 and I save as completed directly the triggered event is FIPP.created (I expected "completed") while if I park it before and then I save as completed I obtain the 2 events FIPP.created and completed. That's why my WF didn't start.
I'm using R3 4.7ext2 and I didn't find an OSS note about this issue.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Kind regards.

Video doesn't start from the beginning

Please tell me there is a setting on the iPod classic to always start a video from the beginning of the video??!?!?! I am using the iPod classic for video projection.
E.g.: I play video #1 until, say, 3:00. I select menu and go to another video or a song, a photo, whatever. I go back to video #1 and it starts at 3:00! WHY?
I want iPod Classic videos to ALWAYS start from the beginning.
Please tell me there is a setting for this.
thank you

I have good news for you, (compared to your other post!).
Select the video in iTunes and click on *File/Get Info* and look on the Options tab. Turn off the tick in *Remember playback position.* You can bulk select some or all your videos to do this.

DVD Doesn't Start From Stopped Point...

Hi All!
I have created a DVD with a standard MENU and 4 different episodes. From the MENU the user can view one of four epsiodes. The only problem is when the DVD is stopped and then played again it automatically just starts playing from Episode 4... Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi!
This sounds exactly like the problem I encountered recently. (Presuming you meant "stopped" and not "semi-stopped" as offered by some DVD players.)
Just have a look at your DVD in VTS view - my guess is that you will find your track of Episode 4 sitting in VTS 1 in front of the menue assets. It seems that most DVD players (at least the ones we have at hand ...) after stopping the DVD do not execute the programmed startup-action but instead just play the first video track.
Now one could think that moving the Episode 4 to a later VTS would solve the problem - not quite. Now the standalone DVD players we have did not restart the DVD at all! (That is with only the menue assets left in VTS 1 and the menue or a script programmed as startup item.)
The solution: If you do not have a legal disclaimer, logo or other intro-video that you can put into VTS 1 as startup item, just generate a second of black video to put in there (set as startup item) and program anything you like as a follow-up action of that slug. Voila! Your DVD player after stopping should now restart properly with your menu (or script ...) Our's did.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Marc

The camera app doesn't start from lock screen

One of the new features in IOS 5 is the ability to start the camera from teh lock screen. However, my phone doesn't allow this. Was this function built into the final release version of IOS 5?

This feature is not working on my iPad 2. When I double-click the Home button--in lock-screen position-- the iPod features appear at the top of my screen, as they always have. The photostream icon remains in place to the right of my Home screen slide lock. No camera icon comes up anywhere. I have photostream set to off and tried switching it to on, to see if this would make a difference; it does not. I'm very computer and device-literate. The problem isn't in the way I'm double-clicking the Home button. This feature is definitely not working on my iPad 2.

IPhone 4 doesn't start, from nothing, when I press home button (since iOS 5)

Since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5, almost everyday, from nothing, I can't start the phone by pressing the home button or any other button. So I have to restart all the time it happens, it's getting annoying already!
Is it happening to someone else?
HELP!!!

Basic troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore has new device. Doesn't sound like you've been through ALL the steps yet.

HT1533 Help my iMac doesn't start from the white screen and apple and whirring gear icon.

Help! My IMac doesn't boot up ...just a white screen, apple and whirring gear. I tried turning it off and on and then turning it on while holding down the shift key but nothing.

Could be a HD failure. Gina please do 2 things, first is when you post it's imperative for us to know some things about your system so we can diagnose properly. We need to know what iMac you have, some basics about how it's configured and how much RAM is installed and most importantly the version of OS X installed. Without those basics it's very difficult. To get you started though, please carefully read and methodically follow Apple's instructions in Gray screen appears during startup

[Solved]lxde doesn't start from xinitrc

So I'm setting up arch in virtualbox to play with it and I've setup the system and partition(s) but upon trying to use lxde as a DE I'm strugling. I've added
exec startlxde
to ~/.xinitrc and upon reboot I'm greeted with the regualar terminal prompt. Is the command wrong or is there more that I'm missing? I've install xorg and startx doesn't seem to have issues and I've installed lxde-common & xdterminal.
Let me know if I should give more specific info for anything. Thanks

.xinitrc gets executed when you run startx, not automatically at boot. Sounds like you're looking for LXDM?
