Question concerning Tiger installation

Hello,
currently I have OS X 10.2.8 and most recently I bought tiger...I have a question concerning the installation process. I inserted the disk and completed the first couple of installation steps and when I get to the 3rd step to choose a hard dive to install the operating system on, my slave drive is the only option that appears, not my mac hd drive that already has the current operating system on it...should i install tiger on my slave drive or is there a way to get my home drive as an option?? I have more available space on my mac hd drive and would say that it is the main drive that contains all the information to run this computer....
any info on this matter would be greatly appreciated.....peter

when selecting the startup disk, should there always be a ? mark on the drive icon? Well, i selected the mac osx2.8 system and will try the process again.....thanks....

A question about Tiger installation via firewire

A friend of mine took her A1055 14.1" 1.33Ghz iBook G4 to someone to have a bad hard drive replaced. Before he returned it, without asking her, he removed Tiger and installed Leopard on it. Her base memory is only 256MB, storage 60GB so, as might be expected, once she reinstalled all the necessary apps she has to use in her line of work, her iBook became sludge. It constantly freezes up; something it never did before he installed Leopard. She can't afford, at this time, to move up to a MacBook, so she's asked me if I can help her get back to TIger. (The guy who installed Leopard isn't interested in correcting things.)
This question, before I begin: I don't have retail TIger disks (and she doesn't, either), but I do have the bundled disks that came with my old pet, an A1054 12" G4. Both iBooks do have DVD drives, but, of course, these are bundled disks. Should I be able to successfully skirt the "bundled" issue and install Tiger on her machine via firewire? I plan to save her important files to a flash before I begin but, since she's running Leopard (if you can call what it's doing "running"...) I'll have to erase her hard drive. I'm hesitant to do this, if someone here knows any reason my 12" bundled software won't work with her 14.1" iBook, even though it was running Tiger before. Since I primarily use a MacBook, I'm a bit reckless when it comes to erasing my own iBook's hard drive, but I'm reluctant to do so to hers, if all I might potentially end up with is an empty iBook.
I've never been afraid to ask a stupid question; see how brave I am.

Getting around to answering the question about my own iBook: the one I keep next to me is model is A1133. Entering its serial number into this site confirms that TIger was its original OS, so those particular bundled disks are to be expected. But my old A1054's serial number reveals, as you pointed out, that it's OS was 10.3.3. This begs the question: why, when I purchased it as a re-furb at my local Apple Store, several years ago, did it come all neatly boxed, not only with user manuals and stickers, but bundled Tiger disks? I suppose "Apple re-furb" is the short answer, but the "bundled" part is a bit fuzzy.
Well, back to the original question, Ronda, regarding my friend's iBook and the fact that the guy who worked on it installed Leopard, without her consent: Yesterday, I was mulling it over, and, remembering that her RAM was only 256, decided that, before I did anything else, I'd up her RAM to see if this helped Leopard run any better. I pulled a 1 GB card from my "parts" iBook and popped it in. I'm running it through its paces, today, to watch its behavior.
If it continues to object to having Leopard as its OS, then would the bundled disks that came with my A1133 allow me to install Tiger onto her HD, via firewire, since its production year was more recent? (I apologize that, at the time I originally posted, I'd not remembered that the A1133 also came with disks. If you could see all the Macs stacked around this place, perhaps you could forgive that oversight.)

General questions concerning RAC installation

Dear Oracle experts,
I would like to try an RAC installation using Oracle 10g on Solaris(Sparc).
I just want to go through the installation process without the intention to use
the RAC productively.
Is it possible to install the RAC database in a second ORACLE_HOME additionally to
an existing Oracle installation ?
Are there any traps to avoid ?
Do I really have to install the database software after installing the Cluster software or
is it possible to install the cluster software to upgrade an existing database installation ?
Is it possible to use the RAC without ASM ? (My second machine doesn't have a harddisk left..).
Thanks in advance for your advices.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
You can't have only one instance of ASM running and sharing the disks. You need to have ASM installed on each RAC node in order to mount the shared disks.
Now you can use one single ASM instance on a server that could be shared by multiple databases (on that same server). We do this in one of our development environments.
You may not have to upgrade your hardware for a little RAC sandbox. The main thing is getting storage shared between the 2 servers and having the extra NICs for the private interconnect.

Someone PLEASE help. I am at my wit's end... (Question concerning iTunes installation error)

This is SUPER frustrating. A couple of months ago, I tried to update my iTunes to iTunes 10.5. After I had installed it, I got the infamous "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 5). I was, consequently, having problems with my laptop as a whoel at the time and thought that this was the source of the problem. However, I just got my laptop back after having it fixed by technicians. I have tried to download iTunes again and I am getting the same message. I have scoured through countless questions here on the Apple Support website and on the internet in general. NOTHING has worked. I have an iPod nano 6th generation and haven't been able to properly manage my music because of this. Please help!!

Thanks - I'm usually better with my netetiquette, but I had just spent a very frustrating time trying to figure out what should have been a very simple thing.
I still have no idea why the headphones started working. But I did finally figure out that GB has multiple input settings for my pre-amp (mobilepre usb) - although this is way more hidden than it should be. Problem is solved.
And to anyone I may have offended with my rant - my apologies. I'll try to keep that down in future.
Thanks again.

My somewhat bizarre Tiger installation experience

I decided it was time to upgrade my wife's 15" Powerbook G4 from 10.3.9 to Tiger, so I sat down this morning to start the process. I inserted Install Disk 1 and rebooted per the instructions.
The process started as expected, with the installation dialog opening. I went through and answered all of the questions up to selecting which drive to install on. At that point, the message came up telling me it was checking the installation media. It looked like it would be a slow process, so I left the room for a bit.
When I returned, I noticed that Install Disk 1 had been ejected, and the screen was showing the gray Apple logo reboot screen, with the rotating thingy under the Apple logo. Huh? I thought I was going to be asked what kind of installation and maybe one or two more questions. Could the media be bad? Did it reboot? Was it looking for the next Install disk? I had no idea.
So I just tried something...I inserted Install Disk 2. After a few minutes of the drive spinning and sounding active, it eventually spit that one out, too. So I did it again with Install Disk 3. Same thing, so what the heck, I put in Disk 4. Every time, the drive sounded active, like it was actively reading it, for a good amount of time.
Eventually Disk 4 was ejected, but after that I had no idea what to do. The screen was still showing the gray Apple logo with the spinning thingy. What to do now? Nothing else was happening...no hard drive noise, nothing. I put Install Disk 1 back in for the heck of it. Nothing this time. Silence, and a continuously spinning thingy.
After a long while of this, I had no idea what to think or what to do. So, knowing that I had a backup of her data available, I did the manly thing and held the power button down until it shut off, and then I rebooted. I had no idea what to expect.
Well, after some time to think to itself, the Powerbook rebooted just fine, and the 10.4 Setup Assistant appeared as expected. "About This Mac" says 10.4 is installed, and everything seems to be working as it should as far as I can tell.
Huh? I've installed Mac OS's, including Tiger, many times and I've never come across anything like this before. I've searched around but haven't seen other experiences like this. What do people think? Anything else I should do to make sure it installed everything correctly?

I realize I don't need CDs, I'm just telling you this is what the University gave me. And yes, I paid the academic discount price you mentioned.
These are, in fact, "proper" Tiger installation disks. In case you don't buy that, here's a pic of Install Disk 1:
http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/8449/installdisksw6.jpg
And yes, there are three more labelled Disks 2-4.
I did not state that when I returned, the whole process was completed. I stated that, when I returned, Install Disk 1 had been ejected, and the gray screen with the Apple logo and the spinning thingy were displayed. I waited half an hour before deciding that something was probably not right, so that's when I tried inserting the remaining Install Disks.
It may very well be that the remaining Install Disks weren't required and the whole process really was finished and it only needed Install Disk 1. But it sure seemed like the others were needed -- the CD drive spun and clicked like it was reading continuously for 10 minutes until it spit the disk out again. Same goes for the other disks. And in the end, it never did reboot, it just hung on the same screen.
The process is a mystery to me, and apparently to you too. I'm looking to see if anyone has had similar experiences or any tidbit of advice, which I still maintain is a perfectly good question to ask on the Apple Support forums. Your advice is to start from scratch again and use a "proper" DVD. I got it, and thanks for the advice.

Questions about tiger install

hello,
i am wondering if some nice person could help answer a few questions and walk me through this process. i am a final cut pro editor and recently very naively upgraded the OS (to 10.3.9) and quicktime (from 6.5.3 to 7.0.3) on my g4 tower. i've since read that you should never upgrade mid-project because you never know what kinds of weird things will happen to your system, but i did not know this at the time.
so these upgrades have pretty much wreaked havoc with my fiinal cut - log and capture no longer works at al in fcp, i have a deadline, and the situation is a disaster. i've spent 20+ hours troubleshooting already, doing every fix i can find online for this apparently known bug. but nothing seems to work (i've reinstalled quicktime every way imaginable, downgraded back to 6.5, reinstalled final cut, thrown away quicktime receipts). nothing helps.
so now i want to try reinstalling the whole OS. but - the bad news is that i don't actually have an installer disk for panther. my g4 came with os 10.2, and i've lost the panther disk i used to upgrade. and panther is no longer on sale anyway.
so here is my first question: i also have a laptop, an ibook g4 that came with tiger. can i use the OS on the laptop installer disk to get tiger onto my g4 tower? or will that not work. or is there some other migration-type process i could use to get the OS from my laptop to the tower?
next, i know there is all this stuff about the correct way to upgrade the OS - backing everything up first, then wiping clean your drive, then doing a fresh install of the OS. i'm a bit confused about this process. i used carbon copy cloner to make a backup copy of all the stuff on my internal drive, but am not sure what to do next - do i just erase the drive now? then what? if the tiger installer from the laptop works and i get tiger installed, then how do i move back all the stuff that i've backed up (without overwriting the new OS)?
hope someone can explain all of this to me - i'm a big confused. thanks!

First, you cannot use the Tiger installer that came with your laptop to install on the tower. Although it may work (or may not because OEM versions are most often machine-specific) it constitutes a violation of the license agreement to install on more than one CPU at a time.
Second, you say you used Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the tower. I assume the backup is of the system that was working before you upgraded to 10.3.9. If so, you may be in luck. If this backup is on a bootable Firewire drive, then you should boot the tower from the Firewire drive with the cloned backup. Then use Disk Utility to erase the internal hard drive and use Carbon Copy Cloner to restore the backup to the internal drive. Of course be sure that you have set the CCC preference option on for Make Bootable.

Cannot reinstall Tiger : installer stuck (cannot make disk bootable)

Good afternoon experts,
I am writing to you here as I have a problem with the Tiger installer which suddendly stops when trying to install on a prepartioned disk.
First, some background information : I have a 20' iMac Intel machine which I bought on February 06 (well designed machine, happy with it so far). The thing is, I have had serious crashes and lockups using the UB version of VLC (media player) which led me to hard reboot the machine several times. Despite the journaling on the disk, some of my filesystem was corrupted, seemingly beyond repair (some apps did not even boot, nothing happened when I plugged in an external disk, etc). Scanning for disk errors and permissions problems revealed that a lot of files had been damaged ("extended allocation" error) in both the system and in my applications.
As I did not know what to do (I should have asked first here whether it was possible to reinstall only parts of the OS using, maybe, a package manager), I synced my backups and went for a reinstall.
The thing is, the disk is already partitioned, as I also run Linux on the machine (updated firmware and repartitioned the disk w/ BootCamp; worked well). It contains, in that order : the hidden EFI partition (fat32), the macOSX HFS+ volume (where I want to install), Linux swap partition, HFS+ partition (for use w/ rEFIt, the EFI bootloader), and two Linux ext3 partitions.
The install starts fine (booting from the DVD which came with my machine), the macOSX volume is formatted but the installer just then stops. Looking at the logs, I can see that it is because it cannot make the volume bootable (this is what the error message says). Note that it correctly read the partition table/EFI partition scheme as it gives me the correct partition types I have presented above. Also note that I cannot do an "archive and install" procedure, seemingly because I have insufficient space (6GB free on the volume); the installer does not give me any choice. Finally, I can still boot into Linux holding the 'Alt' key and using the builtin volume chooser to start on the second HFS+ volume.
I am asking for help to you gurus, to know what to do here. I was think maybe something like using the shell to do a manual 'bless' would solve the issue; I would like however to be sure before proceeding. Otherwise, is there a manual installation procedure (as there is for instance on the Debian installer, allowing to skip/redo some install steps)?
Thanks for your help experts,
Vincent
PS: I am going to see whether I can collect the logs and post them here.

Hello back,
As I did not find a way to attach my logs, I am posting the most relevant parts of it here.
This is where the installer erases the volume and fails at make the disk bootable :

If my Tiger installation fails, can I go back to 10.3.9?

With so many of you having Tiger installation issues, I figured that this was worth asking.
I have no problems with my current system, but need to upgrade to use certain software. If I run into major problems, can I undo the 10.4.6 install and go back to 10.3.9 or am I out of luck?

Hi averyb2;
If you clone your current system drive to another drive either internal or external Firewire, then if you wish to fallback to the old version it is a simple matter to clone the old system drive back again.
This is always the safest way to upgrade your operating system just in case something should go wrong with a clone of the all system drive it is extremely simple to get back.
One thing make sure to test the clone by booting from it before starting the upgrade.

Master iPad configurator question concerning cart syncing with different versions of iPads.

I have a question concerning configurator syncing.Can the master iPad be a different version of iPad than the other synced iPads? For instance can iPad 2 be the master iPad to a group of iPad Air's? The iPad 2 has some fewer capabilities than the Air, would some settings or restrictions be left off of the iPad Airs if they were set up this way? Thanks.

There is no such thing as 'master iPad'. If you're using Configurator or Profile Manager control of the setup is done from a Macintosh.

Might go for T400/500- Many questions concerning Think Vantage

Hi,
I am deciding on my first IBM, a T400 or T500
I have a few questions concerning the Think Vantage Function:
a) Does the recovery DVD set back the hard drive partitions to factory settings?
b) Does the Think Vantage function set back the hard drive partitions to factory settings?
This means the original size of the partitions, when they have been changed manually.
c) Does Think Vantage work with a self buyed Windows Vista?
d) Does Think Vantage work unter Windows XP
e) Does Think Vantage need drivers/ anything else to work or is it entirly working on the hardware side, so no software/ windows is needed
f)Will Think Vantage work under Windows 7 in a T400/500
g) How was the past situation? Did a under Windows XP working Think Vantage also work on Vista / have there been drivers delivered, when needed, for the new OS
h) Is it possible to set up a new OS (like Vista Ultimate) and then backup it up on a external hard drive and later recover from this?
What do I want to achieve?
I want to recover the factory settings at all times, this means partition size, number of partitions etc. and Windows Vista Business. Then I want to install Vista Ultimate do my settings and backing it up to an external drive or whatever and then recover from that all 3 Months. In the end I should be able to set back factory settings with the earliest/ first backup from Windows Business; Furthermore I might want to install Windows 7 sometimes.
Thank you for your help! Kind regards

Questions concerning Tomcat

I just installed tomcat at home, and now I've got some questions about the installation, that I hope you'll help me with.
1) I can't seem to shut down tomcat. when i enter "localhost:8080" in the addressfield in my browser, it seems that the server is still running even though I used the STOP TOMCAT-programme. And on top of that, I suspect that perhaps tomcat is set to start when I boot my machine. How do I change this?
2) which folder do I use for my servlets?
3) where do I put my .jsp-documents

I just installed tomcat at home, and now I've got some
questions about the installation, that I hope you'll
help me with.
1) I can't seem to shut down tomcat. when i enter
"localhost:8080" in the addressfield in my browser, it
seems that the server is still running even though I
used the STOP TOMCAT-programme. This is a known issue, at least at earlier versions this problem has been reported. Afaik this should be fixes since version 4.1.12.
And on top of that, I
suspect that perhaps tomcat is set to start when I
boot my machine. How do I change this?I guess you use any version of Windows. Seems tomcat is installed as a service. I wonder how you maneged to insall tomcat that way without knowing it. To remove a serice, have a look at the "services control" and disable automatic startup.
2) which folder do I use for my servlets?
3) where do I put my .jsp-documentsThis both questions have been ask over and over again in this forum. Use the search field to find a posting explaining this topic.

<INCO1 tt:value-ref="E1EDL20.INCO1"/>
</tt:cond>
With the simple transformation tt cond statment you can make an XML tag optional. In below example during deserialisation xml tag <INCO1> will be skipped when not availabke in the xml and SAP data E1EDL20.INCO1 will not be filled by the transformation.
Regards. Please give points when usefull !

Lost MAC OS X 10.4 Tiger installer..Pls help

I completely clean my hard drive this afternoon, then Re install Mac OS X. I did not notice that I'm installing MAC OS X Panther. My problem is i don't know where is Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger installer since it was a long time. How can i upgrade my 10.3 again to 10.4 without it?

BDAqua or Rysz (both of you seem extremely knowledgeable):
     This is not a reply to a problem, but a new problem - hope one of you can help. I have an iBook, running 10.4.11. I can afford to upgrade to a Pentium processor MacBook, but choose not to, because of thousands of dollars worth of software I have that work only on OS 9, and I'm sure you both know that 10.4, on the old Motorola processor, will run both X and 9-Classic.
     So much for background. The problem is that I had a previous iBook and woke up one night to the sound of the hard drive making a grinding sound. Of course I immediately shut it off. I then shipped it to my son, who is also a Mac devotee. He not only picked me up another iBook at a reasonable price, but took the HD out of my old iBook, put it in an external USB hard drive case, and it worked fine, so he sent me both. The iBook worked great, both in X and 9-Classic, so I began transferring everything over from my old hard drive to the new iBook. After I had finished, I tried to start 9 Classic - the 9 screen would pull up and the progress bar would begin to move, but freeze after it had filled in roughly 1/16 of an inch. I could leave it on all night, but it still wouldn't load any further. I noticed I had SoftWare Restore in the Application Support folder of my OS 9 System Folder, and thought restoring my 9 software might make a difference, but discovered 9 has to start up before the restoration app can be used, so I'm back at square one.
     I'm usually very knowledgeable re Macs (still have an old LC, as well as 2 Bondi iMacs), but this has me stumped. I'm betting I pulled something over from my old hard drive that I shouldn't have, and it's creating a conflict, but I can't imagine what it could have been. I've tried starting up with extensions off, but that doesn't work either. I can't use any of my OS 9 software, and could sure use some recommendations.
