Reinstall max os error on disc 2

I have a MacBook Pro that I inherited from someone at work.  They also gave me the Max OS X Discs (1 & 2), that they got with the computer.  Max OS Version 10.4.9.  They had configured the Mac to run Windows, So I had to repartition the HD before I could get the install to work.  I have anther Mac Book Pro that I could look at to make sure the partition was correct.  Before doing this, the first disc would complete in error, now the first disc completes and I am prompted for the disc 2.  It goes through the whole process of installing components from disc 2, but after 40 minutes, I get an error dialog that errors were encountered and the only option I have is to start over.  I have tried starting over a couple of times, each time it only prompts for disc 2.  I looked at the logs from the installer and the only errors encountered were with iPhoto one other application.  Is there a way to break out of the install and see if the only thing that is not working are the 2 products that encountered errors during the disc 2 processing?  Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
Steve

  • I have a G5 running Leopard. Trouble starting. Hardware good. Cannot reinstall OS X. Error message 'Disc is damaged'

    I have an old G5 that has been struggling at start up. Needed to reboot several times. Ran hardware check all OK. Attempted to reinstall the OS X and get error message ' Cannot install. disc is damaged' Disc looks good, no scratches.

    That message refers to your hard drive, not the DVD!
    You cannot perform repairs from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair:

    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

  • Itunes wont open or reinstall keeps saying error

    I tried to open itunes on my windows the other day and it said error please reinstall intunes so I tried to reinstall and it kept saying it cannot reinstall. help

    it said error please reinstall intunes so I tried to reinstall and it kept saying it cannot reinstall.
    What is the precise text of those error messages, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

  • I am trying to install itunes on my pc again but keep getting an error that says'apple application support was not found. try reinstalling itunes.' error 2

    I am trying to install itunes on my pc again but keep getting an error that says'apple application support was not found. try reinstalling itunes.' error 2.
    We have had itunes on this pc for 2 years and recently it wouldn't open and another error message kept popping up saying it couldn't open because MSVCR80.dll was missing. I have unistalled the apple programs and tried reinstalling several times but to no avail. Hopefully my music library is not gone. Any Ideas out there?

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • I think I need to reinstall max, but at this point, how?

    First some background...
    I'm installing a new digitizer into a PXI-based setup.  I installed NI Scope v3.8.7, as it came with the digitizer and the instructions directed that I should install it, first.  Upon restart (what the instructions said to do after the install) Windows found new hardware (and, per the instructions, I'd NOT installed any new hardware yet.)  Based on the evidence, Windows seemed to need to update many drivers after that new NI Scope installation; after clicking to auto- find them all, one by one, I finally got to the point where the new hardware could finally be installed.  Then, per the instructions again, I powered down and unplugged the PXI chassis etc.  I next installed the new hardware (digitizer.)  Windows responded with the new hardware wizard upon powering it all back up again, and auto found the necessary software.  Following this Windows responded that the new hardware had been installed and was ready to use.  At Windows seemed satisfied.
    Now my issue...
    I happily clicked Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX), a tool that'd been used for some time in the past, and that's when my turmoil began.  MAX threw an exception, but based on my searches here, NI has never heard of it despite it being known (MAXKnownException....sounds like something known, to me that is.)  Searching some more based on the exception description I found instructions saying I should create a report for NI as well as pass on the log and dump files for the exception.  I was told I could do this (create the HTML report) from the command line, but the most I found I could do from the command line was run MAX.  But this is a problem, because in the target system (I was going through the sequence on a different machine, first,) the PXI system, MAX doesn't run.  Rather, it goes through the motions; it starts, intializes, loads plug ins and then throws the exception that NI doesn't recognize (or so it seems to me.)  Continuing after the exception (on the target machine,) an option given to the user, does no good, for "Devices and Interfaces" doesn't expand; rather, just freezes with an hourglass (I think it was.)
    So I'm thinking my next step with this target system should be to reinstall MAX (I just downloaded it, I think -- syscfg120full.exe -- notice how the filename says nothing about MAX???,) but as yet I haven't determined if anything should be uninstalled, first, before reinstalling MAX, particularly MAX itself.  Should the old MAX be uninstalled, first?  Or is it acceptable to reinstall MAX over itself, despite any past learned knowledge with other software?  Does the installer check for old versions and adjust itself, etc?  Is anything I'm saying sounding familiar?  If I shouldn't reinstall MAX to at least have a functioning MAX to work with to get moving with the new hardware, then what should I do instead?  My goal at this stage of the game is to install and test the new hardware, before I start in on the coding, the unknown territory.  Right now what's expected to be functioning doesn't function, so I can't move forward.               

    Probably along these lines...

  • 6.0.3 Error During Disc Initialization for both DVD+R and Disc Image - Help

    I've been a mac user for a few years now, but I just bought a new MacBook, and my first superdrive! I'm all excited to test out the new hardware along with iDVD.
    I've made a rather simple DVD setup and the first time through it was encoding for about an hour and then it gave an error message which I don't recall other than it mentioned QT7. I ran updater, no new updates that I needed and I tried again, and from then on I've been getting the Error During Disc Initialization message when burning to my DVD+Rs or when I try and save as a disc image (yes, I've deleted the encoding assets). I have about 20GB free on HDD, and I'm trying to burn approx. 100min of video. I've rebooted multiple times, and I've remade my project a couple times but no dice.
    Any idears?
      Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    What hardware do you have???
    You didn't answer Sue's question about free space on
    your start-up drive. You should have 20GB+ free.
    What are you sending to iDVD?
    Verbatim DVD-R, not DVD+R, are very reliable, unlike
    TDK and Memorex.
    Also look here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302925
    I am running on a 2.0 ghz MacBook with a SuperDrive using Sony DVD+R. I will definitely pick up some Verbatim DVD-Rs though to see if that makes iDVD happy.
    I have cleared up some room and now I have around 50GB free.
    I am trying to make a DVD of two seperate .mp4s of a soccer game. I have 3 pictures and two buttons.

    Take a look at iTunes for Windows: "Error 7" message when opening iTunes. Perhaps your .NET Framework needs a repair.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Re-install error on Disc Two - Tiger

    Hello,
    I backed up the contents of my hard drive then proceeded to erase and re-install tiger in order to clear my drive of unwanted clutter. 3/4 the way into installing disc two I got an "error during installation" message. After this message, the mac ejects disc two and asks me to re-insert disc two. It happened three times at the same point as it was installing a garageband application.
    This is the second time I have used my install DVDs, the first being when I first received my mac. After my initial installation I left the discs in their original packaging, inside the 'everything else' sleeve and its been there since now. The disc does not show any scratches. It is grey and has Disc version 1.0 (2Z691-5975-A) written on it. Disc one shows it was Tiger 10.4.9
    My problem is that I cannot get past the Disc two part of the install, which leaves my mac unusable due to a faulty disc. Is there any way I can get a replacement of disc two so I can complete the installation?
    I saw a similar post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1437083
    But their question wasn't answered....
    Thanks for your help,
    C

    By all means get a replacement for disc 2. In the meantime if you perform a custom install, omitting a lot of fonts and application extras, you can get to the point where it won't ask for disc 2 to install extras and at least you can get your computer up and working again. Some of those extras are things such as iTunes which you can download. Others are unique to the disc. In that case if you can't wait you can try extracting them using [Pacifist|http://www.charlessoft.com>. It may be the errors on disc 2 are too much for the installer which is very fussy but may not affect some of the others things you could isolate with Pacifist.

  • I tried to download the latest upgrade and got the following: "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193).  Program Files/Common Files/Apple/Apple Application Support\ApplePushService.dll

    I tried to download the latest upgrade and I got a message telling me "The application or DLL ProgramFiles/CommonFiles/Apple/Applie Application Support\ApplePushService.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette." and then below that another message "iTunes was no installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193).  I tried reinstalling and it still will not work.

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP,head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

  • ITunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7

    Help me!!
    I have Windows Vista, 64bit.
    I keep getting this error whenever I try to install iTunes: "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7"
    I read a lot of posts online on this problem, and tried everything, but nothing helps.
    I completely removed iTunes, QuickTime, Bonjour, etc. from my computer, cleaned the registry, manually erased all the leftovers from folders like Program Files, Common Files, etc.
    All this and nothing. I keep getting the same error whenever I try to install iTunes.QuickTime isn't working as well.
    I'd be happy to hear if anybody has a solution.
    Thanks

    Okay ... damaged file in one of the associated programs (usually Apple Application Support) is still our most likely bet, even though you've already covered that territory.
    Doublechecking ... was this the article you used for your complete uninstall/reinstall?
    [Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923]
    ... unfortunately, it's still not accurate for 64-bit systems. In particular, it can leave dodgy Apple Application Support program files (in particular) on your system, which is consistent with a persistent error 7.
    So perhaps try the complete uninstall/reinstall again, with the modifications suggested in the following post:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12136253&#12136253
    Any better luck with the 7 after that?
