Quicken 2006 error after Snow Leopard upgrade

After I upgraded to Snow Leopard, when downloading transactions into my Quicken 2006 I get an OL-249 error. I researched it and it pointed me toward installing Rosetta. I did that, rebooted, and still get the exact same error.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any fixes?
How can I verify that Rosetta installed correctly?
Thank you.

I had the same trouble. Don't know if this actually fixed it, but Quicken has a way to update the security certificates. See "What if I'm getting an OL-249 error when downloading my transactions in Quicken for Mac?" Updated: 09/10/2009 Answer ID: 7368"

Isight no longer works after snow leopard upgrade

my isight no longer is available directly after snow leopard upgrade on my macbook black. Anyone else with the same problem? The isight does not show up in 'about this mac' under USB and I tried resetting SMC and PRAM.

Hi,
In Leopard there was an App called iSight Update app that was in Hard Drive/System/Library/Core Services
This does not seem to be there in Snow Leopard.
An issue with some computers with the camera was that in System Preferences > Displays the Colours needed to be set to Millions.
Also check the Hard Drive/System/Library/Extensions folder and see that you have the Apple_iSight.kext (this is likely to handle the Internal iSights as well).
One last thing.
Some Web sites can make use of the camera using Flash.
If that tab is still open the Browser may have use of the camera.
It sounds like you have done computer restarts and this will not be the case unless the browser is set to go back to that page.

Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.

Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.
Is there any way to use a 10.5.7 wireless .kext files on Snow Leopard? And where can I find the files?

Ok, I have the fix!! After several frustrating days it finally just works.
The process:
Upgrade your Macs to 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
Powercycle your modem AND time capsule / airport TWICE
Reset your time capsule with a pin or paperclip on the back
Follow the prompts to setup your time capsule / airport access
-- On your Macs
Go to System Preferences > Network > Airport > Advanced > TCP/IP
Click "Renew DHCP Lease" then click "Ok"
Click Apply
Turn off Airport
Turn Airport on
IT WORKS!!!
One of the magical people at tech support walked me through it earlier today. The whole process took about 1.5 hrs because Show Leopard takes about an hour to install on one machine.
Hope this helps-
Joshua

Receiving email after Snow Leopard upgrade

Everything works fine after Snow Leopard upgrade 10.6.2 except I cannot RECEIVE email. I have checked with Comcast and verified my settings for both incoming and outgoing POP mail.

Hello and welcome to the Discussions.
I had no problems of this sort when upgrading to Snow Leopard or 10.6.2. Were you already running Snow Leopard in an earlier version, or did you upgrade from Tiger (10.4.11) directly to SL 10.6.2?
Quit Mail, and in the Finder open Home/Library/Mail. Locate any files named to include MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded. At the root level of the Mail folder you should find one named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3, but look in each POP account folder also. There if you find any other, including MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 delete them from each POP account folder -- they are not used in versions of Mail later than 2.1.3.
Relaunch Mail and test.

Can't Print After Snow Leopard Upgrade

I have a home network centered around an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station. The base station is wired to a Linksys network switch which, in turn, is wired to two computers - an Apple Dual G5 running OS X 10.4.11 and a and Mac MIni which, until yesterday was running Leopard. I have an HP Laserjet P1006 connected to the USB port of the AEBS and, until yesterday, everything worked fine. Yesterday, I ran the Snow Leopard Upgrade on my Mini and now the Mini won't print to the HP over the network. If I connect the printer directly to the MIni, it works fine; as soon as I reconnect the printer to the AEBS, the Mini will no longer print. The lights on the printer will flash but nothing comes out. I have downloaded the HP Printer driver update from Apple but this didn't help. I have reset the AEBS, to no avail. The G5 running Tiger has no problems with printing. And, my daughter just got a brand-new MacBook Pro loaded with Snow Leopard from the factory and she can print to the HP over the network without any problems.
Any ideas?

When I upgraded iMac from Leopard to Snow Leopard 10.6 it also stopped printing wirelessly to Brother MFC6490CW.
I thought I had this same issue with my Epson printer when wireless printing. Actually, in SL, wireless printing is very slow at least with an Epson. Takes about 5 minutes or so for wireless print to even start. When checking the printing status app, it will start out saying "printer ready." Then after a few minutes it will say "looking for printer." A few minutes later it will say "printing."
When I go into the next room where the printer is, the green light is "flashing" letting me know that "printing" has started.
So I guess what I am trying to say is to check the printing status app after you click "print." It's possible "Brother" is just as slow as "Epson."

PS3 and Safari crashes after Snow Leopard upgrade

How is everyone enjoying the crashes after their Snow Leopard upgrade? I can't save a photo using PS3, or download a photo to flickr or facebook without a crash. PS3 crashes, Safari crashes and work flow is at a crawl? Spoke with tech yesterday and they told me that this would stop if I downloaded Snow Leopard again, which I did, but the problem wasn't resolved. To top it off, I lost permissions on the iMac and can't use the computer. Please tell me where all of the accolades came from? Were the reviews done by people who actually work on their computers or by people who play on them? Oh, and another thing, lost my wireless access to the router and had to start all over. Be careful here, this has not been fun!

Excuse me, I meant to write CS3 instead of PS3.

Permissions do not repair after snow leopard upgrade

Taking advice from this forum, upgraded my 2006 imac with snow leopard. Loving it. One concern is that every time I run repair permissions it makes a whole slew of repairs, takes 13 minutes. However if I run it again it makes all the same repairs again. Have done this numerous times with no change. Any advice? Here is the most serious looking one the last one:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Thank you for any input.

this is normal, and you can take a look at the following link about SUID

There always seems to be some list of repairs, relax and enjoy SL

Finder search "aliases" missing after Snow Leopard upgrade

I'm dealing with a crazy annoyance after upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard - currently running 10.6.2
I have 2 duplicate, external, 1TB WestDig Drives. I have no problems accessing these drives from the Finder, but if I use Finder search or Smart Folders, the corresponding folders on the external drives never open on the first try. I always receive the message:
+The alias “…” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.+
On the second try, search result folders open fine and I don't seem to have any further problems with a folder once it has been opened successfully from within search.
It seems that after my Snow Leopard upgrade every search on the external drive reveals "missing" folder aliases although the "aliases" appear as regular folder icons.
I tried re-indexing Spotlight but this did not solve the problem. I also trashed my plist files for Finder and Spotlight which didn't help either.
External Drive volume info from Terminal:
+drwxrwxr-x 21 782 Mar 14 17:18 PHOTOGRAPHY ARCHIVE+
FWIW I've found others having similar problems on the Apple forums HERE and HERE. I've tried their suggested PathFinder workaround without success.
This is driving me bonkers because it renders Smart Folders somewhat useless. Additionally, these external drives work fine on my old installation of 10.5 Leopard
Thanks for any help!

HI,
Try repairing disk permissions...
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

OS will not boot after Snow Leopard Upgrade

I have a MacPro (Intel). I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and everything appeared fine. However, after restarting my computer the OS will not load. A circle with a hash through it replaces the Apple logo and the apple's spinning wheel continues but all drive activity. I have tried to run the install again by forcing the computer to open the dvd drive then booting for the OS DVD but this has not worked. Has anyone experienced this and successfully resolved?

You have a five year old computer, so a failing hard drive at this point is not so strange. You have a couple of options you can try. Start with this one, but if it does not work you will have to erase the hard drive. I hope you have a backup of all your files.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

Macbook pro will not boot after snow leopard upgrade

My GF has had a macbook pro since mid 2008. It's been running like a champ since I've known her for the past 3 years with no issues. It has/had OSX 10.5.8 installed. We tried to consolidate all our pictures from all our apple devices and realized she didn't have an icloud on the old 10.5.8 OSX. So I called apple and they told me to order and install the snow leopard OSX 10.6 first and then upgrade to lion etc after that, Well we got the disk yesterday popped it in to install and it's been a disaster.... the computer shutdown for what looked like a normal restart during the installation process and never booted back up. Attempts to manually reboot leave us locked on a grey apple logo screen with spinning gear indefinately whith the Snow Leopard disk installed during boot up. With the disk removed I get the flashing file folder with a question mark. I called apple support we tried all the PRAM and SMC resets and then decided that we should go to the Genius Bar once all those failed. After an hour and a half drive to the nearest genius bar we were told that the we suddenly had a hardware issue which just happened to coincide with the new OS installation.... I'm not buying it and am looking for some help. The macbook was running like a champ until we inserted a disk recommended by apple... Any takers?

MPEG-2 Playback not working after Snow Leopard upgrade

Something I need all the time is MPEG2 playback in Quicktime and to ability to convert from MPEG2. in MPEG Streamclip.
What I have found out is Snow Leopard deletes the file in library/quicktime when you install.
I have followed the instructions to go back in the time machine, get the file, restore it back into the library/quicktime file
Done all that, rebooted etc....still nothing
I have also found the quicktimeMPEG2 components installer and that doesn't work either
I desperately need this to work as my business relies on it.
Any help appreciated
Cheers
Paul

What error message do you get with the dmg installer? I have just tried an MPEG2 file, after upgrading to SL, QT reported it required the meg2 component. I found the original dmg file I purchased and it installed OK and works with QT 10.
Before trying to install again it may be worth repairing permissions on you disk.

Aperture 2.1.4 Crashing after Snow Leopard Upgrade

Hi All
Upgraded to Snow Leopard today and then shortly after a successful upgrade, also upgraded Aperture to 2.1.4 via software update.
It now crashes almost immediately after launch giving the output below. It would seem that the "library not loaded" part would be the cause.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had this same error message, removed Aperture and all receipts, re-installed Aperture 2.0 from the CD, and installed the upgrade to 2.1.4. When I launched it, I got the same error message. I have no plug-ins installed. Any other ideas?
Thanks so much.
Edit: Also, I upgraded my MacBook Air to Snow Leopard and had no problem, but on my Mac Pro where I'm having the problem, I installed Snow Leopard on a clean drive and transferred all of my data from a Time Machine back-up.

Cannot Scan after Snow Leopard Upgrade

After I upgraded to Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro & Mac Pro, I have not been able to scan from my HP Photosmart 8180 All-In-One printer. The printer works fine and I can connect to the HP for a scan; but, when I try to scan I get the same error during the scan on both computers. I have reloaded the original HP software drivers and made sure they were current prior to the above, so I need some direction on how to proceed.

Here - this might fix it:
* Cause *
This issue might have occurred if you are trying to scan using the previous version HP Software and Drivers or due to the device driver/ software conflicts.
This issue may also occur if the previous version HP Software and Drivers are conflicting with the Generic built-in Drivers that are available in Mac OS X 10.6 or due to the communication error between the Printer and the Mac Computer.
* Information *
The latest HP printer drivers, scan software, and utility for most of HP All-in-One Printers are included in Mac OS X 10.6 by default. So, no need to reinstall or download any HP software for full print, scan and utility functionality.
Scanning: The Scanning interface is now built into Snow Leopard and supported with the Apple Image Capture application. Instructions follow.
NOTE: HP Scan Pro software (from Mac OS X 10.4, 10.5) is not supported in Snow Leopard. The HP icon for HP Device Manager still in the dock after upgrade is not functional and should be removed.
NOTE: Scan support from pushing the Scan button on the printer is not supported with this version of the scan interface built into Snow Leopard. Scan functionality is supported by scanning directly from the computer.
* HP Full Feature Software and Drivers for Mac OS X v10.6
However, in checking the Software and Drivers downloads page for your HP All-in-One Printer, I am glad to see that the latest version (10.3) HP Full Feature Software and Drivers are available to work with Mac OS X 10.6 Operating System for full Print and Scan Features.
Once you install the latest version HP Full Feature Software and Drivers, you can scan using the HP Scan.App application from your Mac Computer running Mac OS X 10.6.
* Resolution *
In order to resolve this issue, I would request you to follow the steps provided below as they are mentioned and let us know the status of this issue.
* Step 1: Uninstall the previous version HP Software and Drivers *
Please follow the steps provided below to uninstall the previous version HP Software and Drivers using the HP Uninstaller:
1. Click on Go > Applications > Hewlett-Packard.
2. Double-click the HP Uninstaller, and then click Continue.
3. Select the product to uninstall, and then click Uninstall.
4. When prompted, enter the Administrator name and Password, and then click OK.
5. Drag any HP series related icons from the desktop to the Trash.
* Step 2: Verify Disk Permissions *
To Verify Disk Permissions, please follow these steps:
1. Click on Go tab from the menu bar at the top.
2. Select Utilities tab.
3. Click on Disk utility.
4. Once the disk utility pops up please select the hard drive and click on Verify Permissions tab.
5. This may take some time to complete as the Mac will try to verify all the permissions for the hard drive.
6. Once the Verify Disk Permission is complete, restart the Mac.
* Step 3: Repair Disk Permissions *
Please follow the steps provided below to repair disk permissions.
1. Click Hard Drive.
2. Click Applications.
3. Click Utilities.
4. Double-click Disk Utility.app.
5. Select the volume or hard drive where the operating system is located.
6. Click the First Aid tab.
7. Click Repair Disk Permissions to run the Disk Permissions Repair utility.
* Step 4: Download and install the HP Full Feature Software and Drivers *
Please visit the following web link and follow the installation instructions to download and install the latest version HP Full Feature Software and Drivers for your HP Printer.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-75095-1 &lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3739150&os=219&lang=en
NOTE: Clicking the link may give an error indicating it is invalid. If this occurs, copy the portion of the address on the remaining line(s) and paste it at the end of the address showing in your browser until the complete address is displayed in the Address box.
* Installation Instructions *
1. Click the Download Only button.
2. When a new pop-up window appears, click on the Save button.
3. Save the file in a desired location.
Note: Make sure the printer is not connected to the computer before running the file.
4. At the end of saving the file, go to the directory where the file was saved and execute it.
Note: File is compressed and may take time to expand and run.
5. Follow any on-screen instructions.
* Scan using the HP Scan.app Software in Mac OS X v10.6
After you install the latest version HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers successfully, please follow the steps provided below to scan using the HP Scan Software.
1. Click on Go from the top menu bar.
2. Click on Applications.
3. Click on Hewlett Packard Folder.
4. Double-click on HP Scan.App.
5. Click on the Documents and then click on Scan.
6. The scanned output will appear in Scan window and prompts you to scan another page.
7. If there is any other page to scan, then please click on yes otherwise, click on No.
8. In Scan Window, please click on Send option.
9. Select the appropriate destination under the “Choose a Destination, or Task, for Scanned items” to send the scanned output and then click on Send to send the scanned output to the appropriate destination.
* Scanning using the inbuilt Scan Interface
There are three ways to perform scanning using the generic built-in Software and Drivers from your HP All-in-One Printer:
Ø Preview program
Ø Image Capture program
Ø System Preferences > Print & Fax
Important: After you open the scan interface, it is important to select the correct mode (Flatbed or Document Feeder) for the source of the scan image. Your HP All-in-One may have an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or a flatbed lid. By default, Document Feeder will be the automatically selected Mode for any devices that have an ADF. You must select Flatbed if you want to scan directly from the glass flatbed and not the Document Feeder.
For more information about Scanning and Image Capture, open the Help menu from Mac OS X 10.6 and type in your question.
Method one: Scan from the Preview application
1. Click the Apple Preview icon in the dock to open the Preview application.
2. From the Preview File pull-down menu, choose Import from Scanner.
3. Choose the HP Photosmart, Officejet, or Deskjet All-in-One.
The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
Method two: Scan from the Image Capture application
1. In the Applications folder, select and open Image Capture.
2. In the list of devices on the left, click your HP All-in-One.
Networked devices appear in the Shared list.
The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
Method three: Scan from Print & Fax > Printer browser
1. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
2. Click Print & Fax.
3. In the list of printers on the left side of the dialog, select the HP All-in-One to view the options in the Print & Fax window.
4. Click the Scan tab, and then click Open Scanner.
The Printer Browser window appears.
5. Click the Scan icon at top right of the toolbar to launch scanning.
The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
Important Gotcha: If the Scan or Print icons do not appear in the Printer Browser window toolbar, you need to delete the current HP printer queue and add a new one, as follows:
1. Close the Printer Browser window to return to the Print & Fax preference pane. Or, go directly to the System Preferences > Print & Fax pane.
2. Select your HP printer in the list on the left.
3. Click the - sign at the bottom of the list to delete the product from the list.
4. Click the + sign at the bottom of the list to add the product back to the list.
5. Select your HP printer, and then click Add to create a new print queue.
The next time you open the Printer Browser window, the Print and Scan icons should appear in the toolbar, providing access to Image Capture.

Rocketfish bluetooth keyboard can't auto connect after snow leopard upgrade

Hi,
I have one of the newer model 2GHz Mac Mini's which I bought back in March. I've been using a Rocketfish model RF-ABTKB bluetooth keyboard (which I had been previously using on a windows system before getting the mac). Up to now, the keyboard had worked fine. Whenever I booted the mac, I'd use my bluetooth mouse to go to the bluetooth menu, scroll down to "Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard", and then select "connect" out of the sub menu, then would click the "connect" button on the underside of my keyboard and it would connect, every time.
I bought Snow Leopard on Friday & upgraded my machine. Since the upgrade, I no longer see the "connect" option for the keyboard in the bluetooth menu. The only option I see now in that sub-menu for the keyboard is "Open Keyboard Preferences...". If I go to the preferences window, click "set up bluetooth keyboard" at the bottom of the window and go through the pairing process again (going through the discovery process, entering the PIN that the mac generates, etc) it pairs and works fine (I'm actually using it to type this post). If I look at the keyboard sub-menu in the bluetooth menu after it's paired/connected, the "Disconnect" option is now available. The disconnect option itself is no surprise, it had been there in the past, but I thought it's odd that I can still see the disconnect option but not the connect option.
When I disconnect the keyboard (by either selecting that Disconnect option or by just not using it for 5 minutes & letting it go to sleep) the keyboard disconnects, the "shadow icon" fades on to the screen showing the keyboard is no longer connected, and I can go back to the bluetooth menu & still not see the same Connect option that used to be there before the upgrade.
My generic bluetooth mouse (doesn't have a brand name) continues to work with no issues. I called the support number for Rocketfish (which is really just a consumer electronics sub-brand of Best Buy), they said that their keyboard is fully compliant with Mac OS X and if the connect option is no longer showing up for the keyboard in the bluetooth menu, Apple must have done something that changed the way the mac is handling bluetooth.
Also, I did try removing the keyboard from the Bluetooth control panel in System Preferences and re-adding it from scratch, no change.
Anybody have any ideas???

Hello N:
I suspect that there has been some sort of incompatibility introduced. However, since this is an Apple forum, I recommend that you pursue the problem with "rocketfish." If is suggested troubleshooting steps, I might confuse the issue further as I would be focussed on Apple devices.
FWIW, no such problem has surfaced with Apple keyboards or mice. I am not trying to sell you one, I do not work for Apple.

Can't download files after Snow Leopard upgrade

Hello all,
yesterday I upgraded my leopard to snow leopard, since then I cannot download files with safari (also tried firefox, camino). When I click some link it looks like its going to start downloading but it doesn't. Most of the links are .dmg files. I have tried these steps so far but the problem still occurs.
1) Repair the Disk Permissions.
2) Downloaded onyx to clean the system.
3) Cleaned the safari cache and settings, as well as the plugins directory.
4) installed firefox and camino but they act the same.
5) I uninstalled iGetter (if I copy the link location and add it to iGetter I can download the file).
6) I created a new User to check if the problem was system wide or with the user account. The problem is the same in the new user account as well.
Any ideas what to try next ?
Thank you all in advance.
John.
ps: I have 10.6.2 and safari 4.04.

Try using your OnyX to clean the LaunchSevices caches, or use Terminal.
