Problems Enabling Rosetta

WEll, I just got my new Intel iMac home, and it runs beautifully... much fater then the G5 iMac I just returned, but there's a problem. Trying to open certain applications fail. I stumbled across some Help documentation thats say this:
"To open an application in Rosetta:
Quit the application if it is open.
In the Finder, select the application and choose File > Get Info.
In the General pane, select "Open in Rosetta."
Open the application."
However, I can't seem to locate this anywhere in the get info pane... it's very annoying. Am I blind? could someone maybe post an image of there info panes, so that I can figure out where this thing is?
THe programs I've tried it with so far are Proteus and CoverFlow.

Ok well, I haven't had a chance to contact the program devs yet (out drinkin') but to answer some questions, first....
1. I took the information regarding checking the box off in tahe Info Pane directly from a help document. Just do a search for Rosetta and you'll see what I mean. Maybe the document is simply outdated.
2. I mean, the G5 was fast, but this is faster... everything seems snappier and more responsive, and I hardly ever get the spinning beach ball of death. I have 512MB of ram in this machine, same as with the G5.
3. Universal Binaries are called "Universal" cause they have been built specifically to run on both PPC and Intel Macs. Rosetta was designed to emulate the PPC architecture to allow programs that have made the swtich to still run. IT was touted as being invisible and seamless, but the fact that I can't open a bunch of apps and according to the help document, it isn't.
4. What I mean by "the program fails" is that the icon launches into the dock, bounces for a bit, then disapears. No warning, no error messages. It's just gone. Similar to the way it wogold when I'd try and launch 10.4+ app when I was using 10.3. Just there and gone.
5. Nope, no Appleworks. But it does have iWOrk (though it might only be a trial)
Ok, I just checked out that article from the Dev. Conection, and I guess if the application is a PPC, you can't open in Rosetta. Which mneans I'm confused as to the purpose of Rosetta and the meaning of Universal Binary. Does this mean that if the devs of certain apps don't update their binary, they will never run on an intel machine? If that's the case, the I consider this thing to be onpar with an early developer box apple handed out last year. Don't buy it unless you're prepard to wait for your favorite apps.

  • "There was a problem enabling iCloud Backup"

    I currently have an iPad 2, and my husband has an iPod Touch (not sure of the generation - its about a year old). As of tomorrow, we'll both have iPhone 4S's.    We both use my iTuned account for purchasing apps and music. I've finally got iOS 5 up and running on my iPad, with iCloud linked to my iTunes account.  I've got my husband's iPod Touch updated with iOS 5. I set it up with his old iTunes account, and put my iTunes account into the 'Store' part of the settings, as the 'Apple IDs and iCloud' document suggested to do. But when I try to set his iPod Touch to backup to iCloud, I get the following error: "iCloud Backup Failed. There was a problem enabling iCloud Backup."
    Any suggestions?  Am I misunderstanding how I'm supposed to be doing this?  It's not a huge deal with the iPod Touch, but I want to get this figured out before tomorrow, so that I can set it up so that my iPad and iPhone both sync to one iCloud account, and his iPod Touch and iPhone sync to a different one.

    @uzagaku yes this works, and that's the only way to re-enable iCloud backup actually. No need to disable encryption, that's only for further local backups. But thanks for pointing out to that iCloud setting in iCloud .. I should have looked there immediately, obviously. As soon as it's activated there, the setting syncs on iOS. Remains that enabling iCloud backup from iOS should of course be possible, so there's still a huge bug there.

  • Help please, im having big problems enabling wifi sync

    Hi everyone,
    Im having problems enabling wifi-sync between my Windows PC (Windows 7 - iTunes 11.0.4) and my iPhone 4S (Running iOS 6.1.3)
    iTunes lets me check the box "Sync This Phone over WiFi" and when i click Apply - Then Sync the box stays checked but when I look on my iPhone on Settings > General > iTunes Wifi Sync it just still says "To enable Wi-Fi Syncing with iTunes, connect to iTunes on your computer using a cable and click "Syncwith this iPhone over Wi-Fi"."
    I have checked that both iphone and PC are connected to same WiFi network, and have tried a FW restore on the iphone and neither have solved the problem. I have also authorised my computer to my apple ID.
    Im getting to the end of my tether with this issue now, its strange because my wifes iPod Touch will sync over wifi flawlessly (Same PC, different user account)
    Please help if you can...
    Regards

    Yes, i have been clicking APPLY and then SYNC and then finally "ejecting" the iphone frmo within itunes before i dis-connect it. Its a very odd problem.

  • Re: There was a problem enabling iCloud Backup

    Why do repeatedly get this message when trying to turn on iCloud Backup on my iPad: There was a problem enabling iCloud Backup?

    You really do have to sync after enabling iCloud on the device in iTunes. I just clicked Apply after enabling iCloud and it gave the error in the thread title. Went back to my PC, disabled it, synced, enabled it, synced, then synced to iCloud from the device and it worked a treat.

  • How to enable Rosetta at the system level using the command line?

    I need to find a way to enable Rosetta at the system level (e.g. all users) using the command line. When Rosetta is enabled, the following entry is created in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices (run defaults read com.apple.LaunchServices)
    LSPrefsFatApplications = {
    "com.apple.Safari" = (
    <00000000 009a0003 00010000 c323458f 0000482b 00000000 00000023 0000727b 0000c2b0 8b4e0000 00000920 fffe0000 00000000 0000ffff ffff0001 00040000 0023000e 0016000a 00530061 00660061 00720069 002e0061 00700070 000f0014 00090053 00650072 00760065 00720020 00480044 00120017 4170706c 69636174 696f6e73 2f536166 6172692e 61707000 00130001 2f00ffff 0000>
    Does anyone know what the data shown here is? It doesn't change when Rosetta is turned off and then back on. It also doesn't change between user accounts (e.g. joe's com.apple.LaunchServices.plist has the same value as jane's).
    Will it be possible to run defaults in a way that makes this change work for all users of the computer?

  • Problems enabling nfs client and server

    I just re-build a solaris 11.1x86 on a x4640 SunFire
    Have problems enabling nfs
    First i typed the following command:
    # svcs network/nfs/server
    disable
    Second I typed the following command:

    did this 3 or 4 times without success...
    any ideas?

    Let's rule out the easier stuff first...
    Do you have something shared?
    I think you need to have something shared before you can enable the nfs server service.
    Or, if you share something, the service is started automatically. See below.

  • Problem enabling SSL on a MQSeries Adapter

    I'm trying to enable SSL and so far these are the steps I've done:
    - I've been using the DemoIdentity.jks and DemoTrust.jks files located under <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\wlserver_10.3\server\lib for all my certificate operations.
    - I created a PrivateKey and imported it to my DemoIdentity store, created a certificate request and when I got the response imported it back using the same alias. Something I want to highlight here is that when I created the PrivateKey I left the password field empty so it supposed inherit the keystore's.
    - I also imported the CA cert into the DemoTrust.jks
    My MQAdapter is all set and when I used it with no SSL it was working just fine so I think I have the problem isolated.
    Anyway, now when I try to connect this is what I'm getting in the logs:
    at oracle.integration.platform.blocks.adapter.fw.jca.cci.JCAConnectionMa

    Googling this it seems like it's a problem with the keystore and private key passwords being different but I changed the private key's to match the keystore (something that I shouldn't be necessary because of the keytool's default behavior when generating the key) with no positive results.
    Anyway, any ideas would be really appreciated. I've been spinning my wheels on this issue for 3 days now.
    BTW, here's I'm using Oracle SOA11g.

    What are the steps you are doing to create a FlexConnect WLAN
    Check wether you have done this
    1. You should havee a flexconnect mode AP in your network
    2. That AP should connect via a trunk link back to your switch port
    3. Under "FlexConnect" tab of that AP configuration you need to map required vlans where native vlan should be the AP managment in this trunk (AP connected Switch port)
    4. Under WLAN advanced settings, you have to enable "Local Switching" if you want to do local switching. Leave it untick if you want to do central switching.
    This is some of my notes when I did this on a WLC 7.0.116.0 (feature was called H-REAP in that time & later modified to FlexConnect). This should help you as well

  • Problems enabling editing of parameters for effects in Captivate 5

    Has anyone managed to successfully implement the instructions in:
    Creating custom effects in Adobe Flash
    To enable editing of parameters:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/captivate/cp/using/WSedb8e841cbc0b7966f3767e7127e259e115-8000. html
    I have tried and the values of the parameters are not read.  For example, I created my own version of Fly In From Bottom Right.xml to allow customization of the x value:
    <Motion duration="60" xmlns="fl.motion.*" xmlns:geom="flash.geom.*" xmlns:filters="flash.filters.*">
        <source>
            <Source frameRate="30" x="274.95" y="163.95" scaleX="1" scaleY="1" rotation="0" elementType="movie clip" symbolName="Text caption">
                <dimensions>
                    <geom:Rectangle left="-87.95" top="-32" width="175.95" height="64"/>
                </dimensions>
                <transformationPoint>
                    <geom:Point x="0.5" y="0.5"/>
                </transformationPoint>
            </Source>
        </source>
        <effect_config  effect_type="motion_path">
              <config_item>
            <effect_property type="number" propertyvalue="MY_X" defaultvalue="100"></effect_property>
              </config_item>
            </effect_config>
        <Keyframe index="0" tweenSnap="true" tweenSync="true" x="MY_X" y="600">
            <tweens>
                <SimpleEase ease="0"/>
            </tweens>
        </Keyframe>
        <Keyframe index="59" x="0" y="0"/>
    </Motion>
    This is successfully parsed but the value is not taken into account in the animation.  It seems to be set to 0, regardless of what I set it to in the XML and Captivate shows the property as editable but no matter what you enter it does not accept it and returns to 0.
    Any help with this would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    David

    Good Day fellow forum users,
    I'm having the same problem with this that David has.  It doesn't matter what parameter I change the animation behaves exactly the same.
    I am attempting to have an image fly out left however, the image only partially 'leaves the screen'.  I have the effect tied to a button in an attempt to give my learners a way to change from one 'monitor screen' to another.  If I click the button twice the image will fully leave the screen.
    I would rather accomplish this effect with a single button press.
    I could just build this in Flash (and ultimately will do so) but if I can accomplish it within Cp that would be great.  The rest of my team isn't Flash savvy and I would like to have everyone able to edit the final product if necessary.
    Any suggestions are appreciated.

  • Problem enabling Verbose GC in Hyperion services

    In the Windows environment, we have for Hyperion, we start and stop Hyperion services through Microsoft Services application. So in this Microsoft Services application, we are referring to Hyperion delivered .exe files which start or stop the service based on users request. These .exe files do not refer to any of the webblogic configuration files during startup, they just invoke their configurations from the .exe file. Also Oracle only delivers .exe files for those services and no code related to building those .exe files.
    Now my problem is that, I have to enable verbose GC for all the services so we can use that information for debugging OutOfMemory issues. For enabling verbose GC, I have added necessary commands in setDomainEnv.cmd file, but those changes arent getting picked up becuase when we start those services, it refers to the .exe file and that does not invoke any of the web server configuration files. So can you please tell me, how Oracle builds those .exe file and how to embed the Verbose GC commands into those files and build the new .exe file which we can refer to for start/stop the service.
    I appreciate you taking time to read this and please throw any ideas or question you have for me.
    Thanks,

  • Nightly for android reflow problems: enabling reflow on zoom, disabling double tap zoom?

    In the current Nightly for Android build:
    1) Page loads, but the font size is tiny
    2) Double tapping always zooms in to the same zoom level
    3) Zooming out from maximum zoom reflows back to minimum zoom reflow
    4) No way to reflow for anything between maximum and minimum size
    So, is there a way to...
    a) Re-enable reflow on zoom, always reflowing the page to the appropriate zoom level
    b) Disable double-tap zooming, also allowing text reflow for any zoom level?

    I have this exact same problem with the Nightly Android build, but I cannot for the life of me find the Accessibility settings. Could you please tell me how to get to the Accessibility settings?

  • Problems enabling FileVault

    Hi,
    When enabling FileVault2 on my Mid-2012 MacBook Pro with 10.9.3 I received an error.
    After that I completely installed the system new, created a new partition, etc. Right after the installation of Mavericks was completed, I tried enabling FileVault again. Couple of hours later during the encrypting process, I received the identical error.
    Disabling of FileVault also terminates in an Error:
    Is this a known issue? I also tried it with a smaller partition, but doens't matter if I use the full disk or half of the disk. It will always occurs the same error.
    Regards
    Niels

    Update:
    On a hunch that the problem was somehow with a configuration related to the login screen, I went into the Users & Groups preferences, under Login Options, and turned off everything.  I set the login window display to "Name and password" instead of "List of users". Then I went back to the FileVault preferences and turned it back on. I followed the steps and restarted the computer.
    It rebooted and spun on a grey screen for awhile.
    Then it rebooted again, right back to the non-encrypted login.
    I logged in and checked the FileVault preferences. It indicated that encryption was off, even though I had just turned it on.  Odd.  So I turned it on again, restarted, etc.  THIS TIME, it booted correctly to the encryption login, with none of the weirdness of before, and FileVault's preferences indicated that it is in the process of encrypting.
    I'll keep an eye on this for a day or two. If it seems resolved, I'll mark this resolved.
