Reinstalling OS 10.9 and third party applications

After trying the many suggestions given here and still having problems with too many "applications quit unexpectedly" I have decided to reinstall 10.3.9. I would like to anticipate what I face by doing this---lost passwords, etc??? Also, how do I identify what are third party applications? Not usually a conspiracist, but five times this pm when i have tried to visit the votenader site, a crash has occured within seconds after I get to the site lol.

Panthetic,
Web browsers, such as Firefox and Camino compatible on 10.3.9, are still being updated by their developers to keep pace with changing web standards. Safari is being updated but not for 10.3.9 and it's version of Safari (1.3.2 is the farthest that a Panther user can update).
Camino will feel very similar to Safari and can be customized to feel even more like it but the benefit is that it will function on sites that Safari 1.3.2 can no longer handle (Google Maps etc.).
Personally, I would leave Safari and Firefox alone on your Mac for now as it's nice to have a backup browser if you have any problems with another that you are using (ie. Camino). If your available disk space is that low perhaps trash one but hold on to at least one spare browser.
If you suspect a third party application of causing system problems I would look first to applications that embed themselves or intergrate more fully into the system. Applications that perhaps add a menubar icon or a system preference pane of it's own. Those would more likely cause problems with the system than a browser I should think.
Can you not remember which apps you have downloaded as third party applications?
"As before, how do you identify which ones are?"
I don't have a method of determining original installed apps that came with your computer. Alot of that depends upon what model you have and what software was bundled with it originally. I'm from the school of "if I don't know for sure don't mess with it" so you don't stand the chance of messing up the system. If there are particular apps that you have questions about deleting you are probably wise to post back and ask before deleting them.

System software v 2.0.2 and third party applications

Finally! got my third party apps working on my ipod touch!
I think the temporary solution lies in syncing your apps with iTunes.
Thanks to one of the techies (Dwayne, thanks Dwayne!) I downloaded a free 3rd party app through iTunes then synced the apps with my ipod touch, now all of the 3rd party apps work even when I download new ones wirelessly on my ipod.
I hope this helps.

No I'm starting to think it may be the actual HDD I've since initialized the system removed the USB attempted to sign in tells me I need to update it. Downloads the update, attempts to install the update and the same error occurs. I've ordered a new SSHybrid drive 1TB. Good thing I had not played much on it as yet. Did not have much save data on it, but quite ***** that this has happened. Something must have occured between the 2.51 update to 2.55 that must have fragged the HDD.

Clusterware and third-party application

Hi,
I have a installation, where I have 2 servers for Oracle, connected to storage via SCSI, and 6 others servers for application servers (JBoss/WebLogic), not connected to this storage. All 8 machines have two network interface, so I can build public and private network. Oracle servers will work in RAC configuration. My question is: can I use Oracle clusterware to protect application servers, when the machines have not access to shared storage?
Thanx,
Jacek

It's a Safari phishing scam. Just ignore it. Don't click on any links or call any telephone numbers. Quit Safari.

Installing Third-Party Applications

My family wants to start downloading some games and third-party applications for our iMac. I am new to iMac system administration, so I have a few questions.
I want to install the download so that they will be accessible to everyone. Does this have to be done in the admin account? What is the difference between an admin or a non-admin user downloading software?

Oracle Quality Itegration with Third party application

We are trying to build the interface between EBS Oracle quality and third party application for Non conformances and dispositions. Currently there is no business events or public APIs available for publishing quality data out from EBS to third party. Please suggest the latest trends available for Integration of quality with external application using service base integration.

Hello Sandeep,
have you looked at these docs for Fusion Apps Financials / ERP Cloud?
- Implementing Tax -- http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/financialscs_gs/FAITX/toc.htm
- Using Tax -- http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/financialscs_gs/FAUTX/toc.htm
The "Implementing Tax" contains a chapter about integrations with 3rd party providers. Is this what you are looking for? If not, could you clarify what you mean by "integration with 3rd party applications"?
Thanks,

Firmware and third party updates

Hi Everyone,
Currently I am running ARD version 3 on tiger server and I have Tiger and Leopard OS X running on my client machines (G5, Intel Mac).
I was wondering if there is a way to send Apple firmware and third party application updates to all of my Mac clients using ARD.
I have used "softwareupdate -i -a" and this command seems to be only working with Apple software but nothing else.
1. Is there a command that I can send (using ARD) to update firmware on all my Mac clients?
2. Is there a command to update third party software such as Adobe, Roxio etc?

1. No
2. Only by repackaging the updates into an Apple standard package installer and pushing them out via ARD. I suggest you use LanREV's InstallEase (Free) to package up the updated files on your master build system and deploy those packages.

How can I set up printing to queues on a Windows 2008 server directly from the iPad apps and not from third-party applications without using AppleTalk or Bonjour?

We have a Windows 2003/2008 server-based network with a dedicated print server which we would like to be able to print to over Wi-Fi. How can I set up the printers on the iPad without downloading a third party application such as Print Central or Print N Share? I want to just click the arrow and "Print" then choose the printer, which doesnt show up. I want to be able to use the existing TCP/IP-based network that we have to reach these queues, not having to install Bonjour or AppleTalk to reach them.
Thanks,
KMQ7

This would really be the "Holy Grail" right now. I think this a feature that every large organization requires. AirPrint works on a small scale, but is not really an enterprise class application. In addition it uses the Bonjour discovery process which is difficult in a large LAN WAN environment. For those that would remind me, I am aware of the enhancement link

After upgrading to Mavericks on my MacBook, I'm not able to download third party applications like Dropbox and MyCleanMac 2. After clicking the download button, the screen just turns dark and is frozen. Any idea what is happening?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

How to customise the URL on endsession button and point it to a third-party Application?

Hello ,
I have a scenario where i want to redirect to a third-party application instead of OPA summary screen on hitting the close-->end session button.
How to customize the URL behind the end session button to point to the third-party URL?
Thanks,
Charu

You can use velocity templates and javascript to achieve what you need.
Update confirm_end_session_screen.vm to
1. dynamically call the end session URL using ajax(?) to actually close the active OPA session
2. redirect user to the third-party application when the OPA session is closed

Submitting to third party application and post back creating refresh issue

Hi,
I am doing a web application in which I need to hit a third party application from a view and come back to the same view if the third party sends a response back.
For this I am getting the adfCtrlState and submitting it as a postbackurl for the third party.
After coming back to the same view from the third party, I need to go to the next activity in the taskflow without any user interaction.
I am using the following code to find the next activity
<af:commandButton text="AutoSubmit" id="cb2"
action="processResponse"
binding="#{pageFlowScope.responseBean.braodCastAction}"
visible="false"/>
In the responseBean : I am using the RichCommandButton to broadcast event
RichCommandButton myEvent;
public RichCommandButton getMyEvent(){
if(conditions satisfied){
myEvent.broadcast(new ActionEvent(myEvent));
The above code is executing the action(processResponse) specified in the commandButton.
But it is not able to find the next activity in the taskflow, if a hit F5(refresh) it is rendering the next view in the taskflow.
My primary requirement is to execute or render the next method call activity or view after coming back from the third party application without user interaction. Is there any other way to go to the next activity without broadcasting the event ?*
Thanks
Mohan.

Hi there
I see some flaws with that.

It would act somewhat like an LMS where users could post their dev files on a network share.
Dev files need to always be local. Placing on a network share for the purposes of using RoboHelp to compile or generate is risky business and may explode in your face. LMS to me means Learning Management System. Those are typically used for eLearning. RoboHelp does help systems. Captivate does eLearning. So you are losing me with your LMS reference.
When ready to review with the customer, the would use the registration tool to push the project to preview.
I'm lost. What "registration tool" are you even referring to here? Or is this what you are planning on creating and that's what you are choosing to call it?
The app would call the RH command prompt using a server side technology, in my case .NET, and supply the necessary arguments and push the generated project to preview.
There is no "preview" of projects. Preview of individual topics, sure. But not for a project. There is only compile or generate to create the final output.
Once it had been reviewed and ready, then the user could push to production.
Sounds like what one might typically accomplish using RoboHelp in a typical development cycle. You edit content on the local hard drive. If a review is needed, you compile or generate the content and place the output on a server. After approval is complete the content is then copied to the production server.
Sure sounds like you are attempting to reinvent the wheel in many situations here.
Cheers... Rick

Hey good day. i recently made a back up on my phone. then i took some pictures and videos. i accidentally restored the phone. some pictures and videos including pictures from my third party application were all gone. can i still have those back?

hey good day. i recently made a back up on my phone. then i took some pictures and videos. i accidentally restored the phone. some pictures and videos including pictures from my third party application were all gone. can i still have those back?

No. If you restored the device to an older backup, then the device was brought back to that date and time, which was before those photos were taken. When you restored the device, it deleted everything off the phone and replaced it with the earlier information.

ALL third-party applications crash upon save, open, or save as

Okay everyone, this is an odd one.
I recently installed photoshop CS6. However, when I try to save my documents in CS6, CS6 freezes, then crashes without an error report. The same thing happens if I try to open or 'save as' a document. However, if the document was created in Gimp, I can right-click the image in finder, click 'open with' Photoshop, and then something weird happens - File>open still doesnt work (but I don't need it to, as I've opened the image I need) File>save as still crashes - but File>save and Command-S work fine.
I've spent the last few weeks searching for an answer on the adobe forums and found nothing that has solved my problem. And then, something else happened.
Today I installed Python 3.3. Brand new, fresh installation. Started up my IDLE and typed in some code, then hit command-S.
The same thing happened - Python 3.3 froze, then crashed, also without an error report. The exact same symtoms.
This got me thinking, so I opened up Openoffice 4. This had been installed on my mac by my school's ICT services, and had never been opened before - a fresh installation. Once again, saving a document in openoffice 4 also caused it to freeze, then crash.
So, I took my mac into the ICT department and got them to have a look at it. They recommended repairing my disc permissions - which I did - and then, if that didn't work, reinstalling Maveriks.
I'm currently typing this on my mac, having spent the last 3 hours downloading and installing a fresh copy of Maveriks, and still I have the same problem. Any third-party applications freeze and crash when I try to save.
As I am the only user of my computer, I always run applications from an administratior account. Creating a new admin account hasn't helped.
All of these applications work when I'm running in safe mode.
My educated guess is that it's something to do with finder.
Whenever photoshop CS6 crashes, it's when a finder window should appear - for example, so I can choose a name for my new document, or select a document to open. But if the image was opened with finder's right-click, open with Photoshop, then CS6 doesnt have to open a finder window. If the image has already been created, CS6 doesnt have to open a finder window when I hit Command-S.
But I have no clue how to fix it.
This guy (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16595546#16595546) seems to have a similar problem to me, and he fixed it by moving all his items off his desktop. I've done that, but the problem persists.
Adobe (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/crash-using-open-save-dialog-mac.html) suggests that my viewing options in finder could be the problem. I've tried the solution described in the article above, and the problem persists.
Please, I need to be able to use Python and CS6 for my schoolwork! Help me if you can!
Help me, (your name here), you're my only hope!

Hello Rick,
Through all the research I have done so far and talking with a few other coworkers what the common issues that cause this are is:
1. Antivirus: disabling the antivirus is not good enough it needs to be totaly uninstalled and retested.
2. startup programs: these need to be disabled through either Safe mode with networking or the start menu or MSconfig.
3. Office addins: Disable all of them see if that helps. Then turn them back on one by one to see which addin is causing the issue.
To disable addins: 1. open up regedit and navigate to this key. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Addins and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins
Then change the LoadBehavior to 0 this will disable the addin. 3 lets it run. Since this affected only one user HKEY_LOCAL_USER might be your best bet but don't rule out the other location.
To verify there are no addins running go to the File tab>options>Add-Ins make sure nothing is listed under Active Application Add-ins.
I hope this helps
Thanks,

Third Party Application Called TuneUp Lost Ringtone Icons/Ability to Buy

Okay, I purchased and installed a third party application that is supposed to help iTunes get album art and other things. All was going well until i did their latest, greatest update and now I cannot see any Ringtones icons in the field that shows if ringtones are available in iTunes purchased songs. I still have my "purchased ringtones, but I don't have the ability to purchase anymore on songs that are eligible.
I've uninstalled TuneUp, reinstalled a fresh version of iTunes, but still not joy. How to I burn iTunes to the ground without losing my entire music library?

Right that is the point. I had a whole slew of eligible songs purchased from iTunes in my library that now are not available for purchase. For example I just purchased two songs that have the icon in the iTunes store. After I purchase them the icon in the "Bell" ringtone column is not showing for the songs that should be eligible. The only recent change I've made is this third part application. So I am thinking this has messed with my library somehow.

Ios crash report due to a third party application

My son was watching something on his iPhone (5c) iOS 7.1.2 and received this message in Safari "http://supportcallnow.com 'warning!! iOS Crash Report' " Due to a third party application in your phone, iOS crashed. Contact Support for an immediate fix - 1800-523-2251.
Fairly sure this is a virus or at least a scam. Have already tried to reset by holding the power and square down until the apple icon appears, but to no avail. I cannot get the message off of the Safari screen .
Help!

I just had the same "scam" this evening. I got the Safari message: "http://supportcallnow.com 'warning!! iOS Crash Report' " Due to a third party application in your phone, iOS crashed. Contact Support for an immediate fix - 1-800-480-4170. I too called the phone # to see what was going on. It went straight on hold when I called (didn't ring) and then when someone came on the line, it was a woman who I could barely hear due to the noise in the background. She stated that my ios crashed and was no longer something on my iPhone5S and that a 3rd party was at that time taking all my info. off my phone (nice "scare tactic" eh?). She then said for $80 though she could reinstall ios and just needed my credit card # (yeah, ooooookkkay). So I said that was ridiculous as I had been using apps and my phone the whole time I was talking to her on speaker and said I would call Apple Support directly. She told me they would say the same thing about having to pay to have ios reinstalled on my phone. I said I highly doubt it and told her I wouldn't pay the money and that she was essentially full of crap. She then said (prob after realizing I wasn't buying any of it) "OK ma'am" and hung up on me.
Adamfrombessemer's advice works if you're surfing sites and get a "ios Crash Report" message in Safari on your iPhone like I did!
1. Place the phone in Airplane mode.
2. Go to Settings > Safari > And Clear History and website Data
3. Reopen safari and all will be gone. Turn off Airplane mode.
Definite scam!
