Problems with DVD tray and installation of OS

Hi,
I need to install Mac Os X Tiger on my Power Mac G4, but when I switch on my G4, it opens automatically the DVD tray and then the system can't boot from DVD and I can't install Tiger.
I haven't got any firewire Hd to try to install the OS from it and everytime I try to use the remote installation, my MacBook can't find the Tiger installation DVD.
How can I resolve it?
Thanks for the support

But I don't understand why everytime I switch it on, the G4 opens the DVD tray automatically...
That effect is often caused by an attached USB device. Usually the cause is a printer, but dongles, tablets, and iMate adapters have also been reported as the culprits.
You can check for that by disconnecting all USB items except keyboard and mouse, then testing. If the problem has disappeared, then one of the other USB devices is the source. Add them back in one or two at a time and test; when the problem reappears, you've just added the culprit back in.

Problems with DVD-R and CD-R discs

My iMac is almost 3 years old. i have burn several CDs and DVDs since I bought it. Lately I having problems reading and writing DVD-R and CD-R discs.
When you insert a new blank disc it makes a lot of sounds. With a little bit of luck it wont eject it and you would be able to drag files to it and burn it. At te beginning of the burning proces, it makes a lot of sound and many times a message will apear saying that it can calibrate de laser lens or wont recognize the media.
When you insert a burned CD-R or DVD-R it makes a lot of sound and many thing could happend, like work fine, it could be be immediately ejected, a blank disk message appears asking what to do, etc. lately it is more difficult to read my backups.
Industrially burned discs like movies DVDs, audio CDs and Software discs works fine most of the time.
Also when using Parallels I can read my CD-R without much problem. This makes me think that it could be a Software issue.
Any suggestions? Do you think my SuperDrive is dead? How much could it cost to fix this?

Problem with New HDD and installation of Qosmio Player

Hi All,
Hope someone can help, I have had my Qosmio for 2 1/2 years now and recently had a problem with the hard disk. I decided to replace the hard disk as this was the quickest solution. The problem I have now is that I cannot receive TV on media center. I was trying to install qosmio player on the HDD to see if it made any difference but when I run the recovery disk supplied the software tells me that there is not enough disk space!!. The laptop came with a 60G hard disk and the new HDD made by the same manufacturer is a 150GB, can anyone help me out with this one would be appreciated.
Thanks
ED.

Qosimo F10.
Sorry my previous entry was garbled. I upgraded the HDD to 120, could not get the Qosimo player to reload, same error, No space on HDD.
I then upgraded to Vista and downloaded the new Vista Qosimo drivers, created the ISO image and booted from it. Still did not work.

Problems with DVD Player 3.0.1 in G4/466

Problems with DVD Player in G4/466
Yes, I've a g4/466 with two disks. In the first there's system 9.2.2 and the DVD player goes perfect. In the second I've system 10.2 and the 9.2, and the DVD Player (3.0.1) on the system 10 begins to jump in the dock, but stop and nothing happens, I can't open it...
There's any way to reinstal it form system disks???
Or any download to check the error?
Thanks

1. Try using Pacifist to extract it from your Mac OS X 10.2 installation disks, and then run the combo updater for your version of Mac OS X and any applicable DVD Player updates.
2. Open the Console application in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and look for lines relating to the DVD Player.

Problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes after updating to 10.5.6

Hi all,
after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
Regards
Michael

First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

Problems with captivate 8 and windows 8

I´m using captivate 8 and windows 8, and I am having problems with the visualization and publication of my projects. For visualization, there is a message of an error with syntax of the files ou directory, and nothing happens. For publication, I can´t see the project published in the browser. It opens only a text file, with the codes. Is there anyone thar can help me with that?

Acrobat 8 is not certified for Win7, particularly the x64 version. If you got the installation to go, the first step is to update AA8 to at least AA8.2. The x64 with XP required at least AA8.2 and I suspect that has not changed. I would suggest updating to the latest, either from the help menu (until no more updates are available) or by downloading the updates from the adobe.com>downloads page. For the latter, download ALL updates after your current version and install them in ORDER. They are not cummulative in most cases. You only need to reboot after the final update. The updates may get you going. If not, you may simply have to upgrade to AA9 or search for what others have been able to do in your situation.

Problem with Data Model and Analysis View

I create an analyze in BI Publisher and then i create a data model using this object.
When i try to generate an XML with a number of rows the BI Publisher return an empty XML (Only with de DATA_DS tags but no data). To bypass this problem i make and XML file by hand and this allow me to create reports and design it but when i try to view the reports i got the message that says "No Data Found".
So i was check the analysis and all looks appears to be fine, In the results tab it show me a complete table with the data i was looking to use.
So i try to repeat the error and when i try to create the XML for the Data Model i found this two error in the logs:

As i understand there is has a reference to a null value but i cant find what column of the analysis has the problem.
Any ideas about how to solve or debug this?
Thanks

I follow your instructions and it works fine. I can create the XML and the reports can show data.
So, i already know that there is no problem with the data and with the BI Publisher installation but i still doesn know what is the problem with the analysis view that fails.
Any idea how to debug it?
Thanks.

Problem with SAPSERVER.CMD during installation, nothing happens

In the process of installing in our test environment but I seem to have problems with the Oracle 9i installation. When i double click the file sapserver.cmd nothing happens.
I have tried the workaround with renaming "symcjit.dll" and changing parameter JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m in oraparam.ini file. Then rerun installation with command "install\win32\setup.exe -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true".
This time error message "Could not initialize the Java virtual machine. Program will exit!" occurred.
Can anyone please help me how to fix the problem. Thanks.

I am also facing same problem--
I have got IDES 4.7 CDs..
I am trying to install Oracle RDBMS 9.2 NT thru first CD... when I am running SAPSERVER.CMD it does nothing except showing wait pointer for few seconds.
it is actually creating three folders in TEMP folder images, jre, oui
I have tried running SAPSERVER.CMD from command prompt also but there was no luck.
When I tried to run SETUP.EXE there was same situation.
Even i tried to run setup.exe from \NT\I386 directory on command prompt with following command ...
SETUP.EXE -RESPONSEFILE E:\NT\I386\response\sapserver.rsp
but nothing could help me out...
I checked everywhere but could not find and LOG file which could explain me that what went wrong..
this is an appeal to all are techies.. plz help me..
I have tried it on two machines:
1) p4 2.66 512 ram 80+40 gb HDD 2000 server with sp4 and ie6, JRE, .NET framework 2.0
2) Dual core with 1 gb RAM 300 GB HDD 2003 Server with SP2 JRE, .NET framework 2.0
There was exactly same situation on both the machines..
Thank in advance

Boot Camp problems with Windows 7, and a new Macbook Pro

When I try to install Windows 7, when the process is almost complete and Windows is finalizing all settings, the system reboots then gets stuck at the white/gray bootscreen, and then tries to boot from disk, only to repeat the bootscreen cycle indefinitely. How do I fix this? Thank you very much.

My MAC BOOK is 13 inch, first generation of unibody that I bought when it first came out last November, 2009. It seems that the latest boot camp 3.1 does not support windows7 64 bits on my mac book model. I followed Apple instruction to upgrade boot camp 3.0 when running XP 32 bits. And I then upgrade my XP 32 bits to 64 bit Windows 7. The upgrade/installation was successful but I encountered a lot of problems with the mouse and sound.
1. No sound with my new Windows 7 64 bits.
2. I managed to make Windows 7 64 bit recognize my apple mighty mouse. But the mouse does not funtion normal as expected. It does not work with swiping and scrolling.
3. I could not re-install boot camp 3.0 from windows.old nor from the Mac OS X installation disk. When I tried to run setup.exe from the MAC OS X snow leopard, I got the error "Boot camp x64 is unsupported for this model"
I am really disappointed that boot camp 3.1 is not universally supported for all mac book or mac book pro.
I need help to re-install boot camp for my Windows 7? I bought the upgrade through education upgrade program and I selected to get 64 bit version so I do not want to rollback the installation to 32 bit.
Please help.

Trying to upgrade to 10.6 so my iPhone could synch...I'm getting this error message "Problem with this Windows (XP) Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run." Any ideas?

I had iTunes 10.2.1.1 but needed to upgrade to 10.6 so my iPhone could synch...I'm getting this error message "Problem with this Windows (XP) Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run." Any ideas?

This has been fixed. Answer is that I needed to go to "Apple Software Update" and repair it. (From my Control Panel).

Has anybody had problems with DVD's burnt with Optiarc drive

I am burning movie DVD's through iDVD. The movie formats are initially QT with PCM sound encoding. They seem to work well on an old Samsung DVD player, but stutter on a brand new Samsung computer. I do understand it could be a problem with the newer computer, but I would like to hear if anyone else has had any problems so I can see if the problem is more widespread.

I too am having trouble playing DVDs burned with my Optiarc drive. Sorry I don't have the solution, but I can add a data point to the story about problems with DVDs burned with Optiarc.
My current hardware: mid-2007 24" iMac, built-in Optiarc DVD RW AD-5630A with firmware 1AHM / MMC-3.
My scenario: after making home movies with iMovie '08 and iDVD '08, I either burn to DVD (TDK 16x DVD-R 4.7 GB) straight from iDVD or I save as disc image from iDVD and then burn the disc image from Toast 9. In either scenario, I can play the DVD on my iMac or any other Mac or Windows computer. However, it will not play on my Xbox (original Xbox, not the 360) because it freezes when trying to mount (sometimes the Xbox will not recognize the disc as a DVD, and sometimes it will begin mounting the disc and then freeze before displaying the title menu).
Before I bought my new iMac, I had the same workflow on an older 2003 17" G4 iMac that has a Sony DVD burner, and those discs play fine on all DVD players including my Xbox. To test the hypothesis that something happened to my Xbox around the time that I upgraded to my mid-2007 24" iMac, I burned several DVDs using my older iMac, and they continue to mount and play fine on the Xbox. On both my older and newer iMac, I have Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installed, same version of Toast 9, and I burn at the slowest speed (2x) on both. So it seems that the problem can be isolated to the Optiarc DVD burner, but I'm not sure if there are other factors at play here.
I searched the Optiarc site (www.sonynec-optiarc.com) but could not find a firmware update for the AD-5630A. However, I did find this site via Google:
Liggy's and Dee's modified NEC and Optiarc firmwares
http://liggydee.cdfreaks.com/page/en/Optiarc-AD-5630A/
Because I was not sure about the site's reputation or validity of the firmware, I have not tried it yet.

Problem with DVD Player

I inherited this computer and have spent the last couple of months upgrading it. Put a gig of ram in and added a PCI card to help with a multi screen setup but now I have hit my first major head ache. I bought a Pioneer DVR - 104 off of ebay and installed it no problem. The only issue is once I went to test out my dvd feature I found I had no DVD player. I tried updating the system but it would not install it. So I finally was able to get 3.1 off of this site and it won't start up. It just blinks on the dock once and dissapears. I checked the specs and this machine came with the superdrive but my father opted out of it, why I don't know, so there should be no issues with the hardware, can anyone help me on this?
867 mhz G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) 1.25 GB RAM, 60 GB HD, 3 Monitor Display

Hi-
I'm sorry the extras is in OS 10.4- my mistake. In OS 10.3, I believe the DVD player is in the main package. I couldn't find it to install seperately. So.......
Let me recap-
1- The DVR reads install discs
2- DVD's won't play because DVD player does not run
3- DVD-R discs show no response
So-
1- The DVR is reading
2- The version of DVD player may not be compatible
3- There is no burn support
To check burn support, in System Profiler, check if under Burn Support "Yes" is showing.
My current thinking is, that since there was no DVR in the origional configuration, you may need to reinstall (Archive and install) the OS 10.3 to get the proper DVD player installed. this should also configure burn support.
The other way to get burn support is to use the patchburn that I gave you the link to.
BUT, I think you should do things one at a time. My advice is to first get the DVR to read, play and burn in that order. There is obviously a problem with DVD player, so, unless some else can advise differently, I would try the Archive and Install of the OS 10.3.
It may also be good to run the OS 10.3.9 Combined Update:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcombinedupdate1039.html
trying the combined update now wouldn't hurt. If it does not remedy the situation, try the Archive and Install, then update.
Best-

Problems with WAS 6.40 Installation on Oracle - Phase 11 of 34

Hello,
Problems with WAS 6.40 Installation on Oracle (Phase 11 of 34)
with the installation of the Web Application server 6,40 SR1 on a Oracle server I get in phase 11 of 34 (Create Oracle Database) the following error-message:
CJS-00084 - SQL statement or script failed. Diagnosis: Error message: ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact.
error while loading shared library: libodm9.so : cannot open shared object file: No such file or dirctory.
Best Reagrds,
Ralf Steffens

hi Ralf
i've found one composite note for Oracle <a href="https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=011000358700001366932002">505630</a>
hope this solves...
Symptom
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
Brbackup, brarchive, brrestore or brconnect may terminate with errors similar to the following:
BR301E SQL error -12547 at location BrDbConnect-1
BR301E SQL error -12547 at location dbf_info_get-1
Sapdba returns the following error, for example:
SAPDBA: ORACLE error -12547 occurred while checking instance status!
The R/3 work processes or R3trans return the following error at Connect:
C *** ERROR => CONNECT failed with sql error '12547'
Other terms
TNS-12547, TNS-00517
Reason and Prerequisites
As part of the Net8 Connect, a program such as the R/3 kernel, R3trans, svrmgrl, sqlplus or ODMA establishes a connection to the Oracle database. If the connection terminates due to problems at the server end, it can result in ORA-12547.
Additional information for the error is often available in sqlnet.log. In many cases, other messages that are not reported by all tools precede ORA-12547. If ORA-12547 occurs when the ODMA accesses the old Oracle-Home during a database upgrade, for example, it may make sense to temporarily restart ORACLE_HOME on the old Oracle-Home for test purposes and then to execute sqlplus or svrmgrl.
Even if sapdba or the BR tools terminate with an ORA-12547 when calling sqlplus or svrmgrl recursively, you should, for test purposes, call sqlplus or svrmgrl manually with the operating system user that was used.
Hopefully, a more informative error message will appear in addition to ORA-12547, for example:
ld.so.1: oracleC11: fatal: relocation error: file
 /oracle/C11/817_64/libx8.so: symbol ksunsga_:
 referenced symbol not found
If you find accompanying error messages of this type, start a note search with the corresponding search terms since we are often aware of the problem and a solution may already be available. If you do not find any significant error messages or a suitable note, check the following possible causes for ORA-12547:
1. UNIX: Incorrectly linked Oracle tools
2. UNIX: Problems with XPG4 compliance and s-bit
3. Too many requests to the listener at the same time
4. HP-UX, Oracle 8.1: Missing OS patch
5. Use of CRYPTO parameters in sqlnet.ora
6. AIX: I/O Async is deactivated
7. Resource problems
8. The CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LISTENER parameter in listener.ora is too low
9. Activated Oracle trace
10. UNIX: Incorrect oracle executable authorization
11. SOLARIS: LD_LIBRARY_PATH set when you call ODMA
12. AIX: Problem with post/wait kernel enhancement
13. UNIX: Problems with the libobk library
14. SOLARIS: Incorrect search sequence in the path variable
15. UNIX: Conflicts between 32-bit and 64-bit files
Solution
1. Relink the Oracle software as ora<sid> with
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
make -f ins_rdbms.mk install
 or
relink all
1. See Note 88884.
2. If individual work processes terminate with ORA-12547 when you start an R/3 instance, See Note 131561.
3. See Note 399610.
4. You can set security parameters that begin with SQLNET.CRYPTO_ in sqlnet.ora as part of the Advanced Security Option. Oracle releases < 8.1.7 cannot process these parameters correctly and result in ORA-12547. In this case, delete these types of parameters from sqlnet.ora.
5. If I/O is deactivated on AIX Async, the Net8 Connect fails with ORA-12547. In this case, activate I/O Async by using smitty.
6. Insufficient resources such as available memory on the database server can cause ORA-12547. For more information, see 384839.
7. In individual cases, it may make sense to increase the CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LISTENER parameter in listener.ora (for example, by 5 seconds, so from 10 to 15). Although a value of 10 seconds should usually be sufficient to establish a connection.
8. Delete the log files written by the Oracle trace in accordance with Note 92537.
9. Check to see whether the executable in $ORACLE_HOME/bin has the "rwsr-s--x" authorizations and the ora<sid> owner and correct this if necessary.
10. If you call ODMA on SOLARIS as part of a database upgrade and if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set explicitly (on the lib directory of the target release), calling the old Oracle software through ODMA may fail with ORA-12547. If you use the old ORACLE_HOME to list sqlplus or svrmgrl, you get the following error:
ld.so.1: oracle<sid>: fatal: relocation error:
 file /oracle/<sid>/817_64/libx8.so: symbol ksunsga_:
 referenced symbol not found
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 In this case, permanently delete LD_LIBRARY_PATH from the environment. This does not have any negative effects since the libraries are automatically found in the correct directories as of Oracle 8.1.
 If problems occur with the post/wait extension on AIX, the following type of errors will be displayed:
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program oracleC11 because of the
following errors:
 0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for oracle because:
 0509-136 Symbol pw_post (number 2524) is not exported
 from dependent module /unix.
 0509-136 Symbol pw_wait (number 2525) is not exported
 from dependent module /unix.
 0509-136 Symbol pw_config (number 2526) is not exported
 from dependent module /unix.
 0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
 'dump -Tv' command.
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
1. If the libobk library was created incorrectly, the following type of errors may occur:
/oracle/C11/817_64/bin/oracle: /sbin/loader:
 Fatal Error: Cannot map library libobk.so
/usr/lib/pa20_64/dld.sl: Unable to find library
 '/oracle/C11/lib64/libobk.sl
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program oracleC11 because of the
 following errors:
0509-150 Dependent module /oracle/C11/817_64/lib/libobk.a(shr.o)
 could not be loaded.
0509-152 Member shr.o is not found in archive
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 Check to see whether libobk exists and, if it is a link, that it points to a valid object. Note 142635 contains more information about this. The libobk link may point to this if a libsbtsh8.* file exists in the Oracle library directory. If you are using a third-party Backint tool, contact the relevant supplier, since libobk often has to point to a backint-specific library.
1. If an error such as
ld.so.1: ./svrmgrl: fatal: libucb.so.1: open failed:
 No such file or directory
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 occurs, the PATH has probably been set incorrectly. For more information, see Note 44361.
1. If an error such as
ld.so.1: oracle<sid>: fatal: <library> wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 concerning "wrong ELF class" occurs, check whether the <library> mistakenly has a different bit size than the tool that was called. You can determine this using
file <library>
file <tool>
 All the files involved must uniformly be either 32-bit or 64-bit.

Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop

I'm surprised that there isn't an Active X control that can do this more
easily? Would
be curious to find out if there is - although we aren't really embracing the
use of
them within Forte because it locks you into the Microsoft arena.

Subject: Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop
I am just curious as to other people's experiences with the ListView
widget when elements in it are set to be draggable. In particular, I am
currently trying to design an interface that looks a lot like Windows
Explorer where a TreeView resides on the left side of the window and a
ListView resides on the right side. Upon double clicking on the
ListView, if the current node that was clicked on was a folder, then the
TreeView expands this folder and the contents are then displayed in the
ListView, otherwise, it was a file and it is brought up in Microsoft
Word. All this works great if I don't have the elements in the ListView
widget set to be draggable. If they are set to be draggable, then I am
finding that the DoubleClick event seems to get registered twice along
with the ObjectDrop event. This is not good because if I double click
and the current node is a folder, then it will expand this folder in the
TreeView, display the contents in the ListView, grab the node that is
now displayed where that node used to be displayed and run the events
for that as well. What this means, is that if this is a file, then Word
is just launched and no big deal. Unfortunately, if this happens to be
another directory, then the previous directory is dropped into this
current directory and a recursive copy gets performed, giving me one
heck of a deep directory tree for that folder.
Has anybody else seen this, or am I the only lucky one to experience.
If need be, I do have this exported in a .pex file if anybody needs to
look at it more closely.
Thanks in advance.

here is the required code....
private static class TreeDragGestureListener implements DragGestureListener {
 public void dragGestureRecognized(DragGestureEvent dragGestureEvent) {
 // Can only drag leafs
 JTree tree = (JTree) dragGestureEvent.getComponent();
 TreePath path = tree.getSelectionPath();
 if (path == null) {
 // Nothing selected, nothing to drag
 System.out.println("Nothing selected - beep");
 tree.getToolkit().beep();
 } else {
 DefaultMutableTreeNode selection = (DefaultMutableTreeNode) path
 .getLastPathComponent();
 if (selection.isLeaf()) {
 TransferableTreeNode node = new TransferableTreeNode(
 selection);
 dragGestureEvent.startDrag(DragSource.DefaultCopyDrop,
 node, new MyDragSourceListener());
 } else {
 System.out.println("Not a leaf - beep");
 tree.getToolkit().beep();
}
