Removing Quicktime 7 from Mac OSX 10.6

What am I supposed to do? Should I just move it to the trash? Or do I also need to move some other files to the trash?
Unfortunately I installed Quicktime 7 by mistake… only problem now: how do I get rid of it?
Thanks in advance,
Lex

If you don't need any of the editing features of QuickTime Pro, then, yes, you can just drag it to the trash. It's just a front-end for the underlying QuickTime functions, so you don't have to remove everything that says QuickTime (or QuickTimeX will stop working).
Just drag it to the trash then delete it and you should be ok.

Trying to update from Mac OSX 10.7.2 to 10.7.4 via the Updater. Update Not Verified?

Trying to update from Mac OSX 10.7.2 to 10.7.4 via the Updater. Getting a message half way through the download stating the updated "could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading." Any ideas for picking up the latest Update?
Uploading screenshot.... any advice appreciated.
Matt

Either try redownloading or try downloading the standalone updater: OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo).
Such errors may be caused by glitches in your Internet connection or because of hard drive problems. I suggest you try the following:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

Same list as stedman1, but uses model numbers which is slightly more accurate.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better)
8 GB or more of available space
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. Application Compatibility
If you have applications that you want to use that aren’t compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on or you can run Snow Leopard server in a virtual mode.
If your computer isn't compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion. Computer Compatibility - Lion
If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.

Help! Can't start up from Mac OSX 10.0.4

I’m hoping someone can help me with a problem. I have an Apple G-4 computer. When I originally purchased it 3-4 years ago I believe it came with OS 9.1 and OSX installed. Both worked fine when I first got it. Through the years I upgraded the OS to 9.2.2 and haven’t used OSX since the first time I purchased the computer.
Well, I went out an purchased a digital camera which only works with OSX. So I switched the start up disk to OSX and re-started the computer. No OSX, only a gray screen with wording, letters and numbers that are highlighted. Some of the wording is as follows: “panic unable to find driver for this platform”, no debugger configured-dumping debug information”, panic we are hanging here”.
So I re-started from the CD, switched to OS 9.2 and restarted. I then removed the OSX system from my computer. I then re-installed OSX again and tried to start from it, but the same thing happened. I’m not sure if it has any bearing, but I noticed in the startup disk, Mac OSX 10.0.4 has next to it (Build 4Q12). Not sure what it means or if it’s suppose to be there.
Sure would appreciate some help here. Thanks much.
G-4 Mac OS X (10.0.x)

10.4 will work on your machine as long as you upgrade the firmware first.
Follow my upgrade tips when installing:
http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html
I would add the person who has the least trouble upgrading to X, goes to it cold turkey. As you are suggesting only to do so for your digital camera, I'm not sure if you really are ready to go to X. I'd get all your software upgraded to X versions before going to X purchased, and then you'll be able to work it out. I've also written this FAQ on migration:

How to remove a program from mac laptop

how to remove a program from my macbook pro 10.6.8

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
What application do you want to uninstall?
On Mac, most of the applications are uninstalled just dragging them to the Trash. If an application comes with an uninstaller, use it instead to uninstall that application.
Also, never use a cleaning app to uninstall an application. They can damage OS X, so the only option will be reinstall the operating system

How to remove virus, malware from mac?

please help i used an website that later that had phishing activity and virus , today my friends said they received emails with files on it
HOW DO I REMOVE THIS VIRUSES FROM MY COMPUTER ????
PLEASE HELP

Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide, remove adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac, and AdwareMedic. If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.) You might consider adding this Safari extensions: Adblock Plus 1.8.9.
Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

Cannot go to the Internet from Mac OSX, and Fedora Core 5

All Windows users (XP, 2000, Vista Beta) can connect to the Internet no problem on WRT54G with Firmware v4.20.6 (may 26, 2005). But odd enough, though getting the right DHCP assigned IP addresses and DNS server address, MacBook Pro (OS 10.4.1) and Fedora Core 5 cannot go to the internet at all using Safari and firefox browsers: the message keeps saying that your computer is not connected to the internet. Tested with BOTH wired and wireless connections, no luck to the internet. So, it's not about the wireless settings and setup. It doesn't work even if I directly connect the CAT5 cable to the router port.
Tested at wireless hotspots, at work where we have Cisco access points, and at a friend's place where there is netgear wireless router, MacBookPro is just working fine connected to the internet.
Any suggestions? Linksys doesn't support Mac and Linux PCs at all?

Thank you very much All (devildance, and Frank).
Seems like it is working fine now...
I reset the router as factory default, and reconfig the wireless setting(disable broadcasting SSID, configure TKIP PSK, and MAC filtering). Directly connected CAT5 cable from the router to my MacBookPro Windows XP. Working fine. Switched to Mac OSX, working fine. But, when I disconnected the LAN, and attempted to connect wireless, I couldn't go to the Internet using Safari and Firefox: keeps saying that your computer is not connected to the Internet.
Still could ping to 4.2.2.2 and 207.232.22.25, but getting errors "could not resolve the host name" when I pinged with the hostname bearshare.com.
Connected the wired CAT5. Working fine. Unplugged and used the wireless, could not get to the internet.
Checked the NICs settings on both LAN ethernet and wireless airport. All seems the same and correct: IP address, subnetmask and gateway address, and NO DNS entry. The same settings, but works on LAN cat5, and not works with wireless. So, for the sake of it, just manually added the DNS server IP addresses and domain names on wireless NIC. And Wala...it is working fine with wireless. Still strange the fact that Ethernet LAN NIC still doesn't have any DNS entries and working fine, but required DNS entries on wireless NIC.
For Fedora Core, could ping and resolve names without changing any settings. But when going to the Internet, got the error saying "comcast doesn't support this platform/OS" and another error "Welcome to Comcast High speed Internet....registration currently unavailable" when attempting to go any websites. Notieced that we pinging cnn.com, bearshare.com, or any websites, got ping reply from the same IP address which appears to be one of the comcast DNS server IP, 68.87.64.132.
So, I think it is a comcast issue not supporting Linux or something else which I would need to call to Comcast about...
But, thanks...looks like I can go to the Internet on Mac OSX, and Fedora core now with Linksys WRT54G. Thanks so much guys for all the suggestions....

Problems to download music from Mac OSX 10.4.11 to iPhone 4

Hi to you all
Since few days I am an owner of an iPhone 4. And also I have Mac with OSX 10.4.11 at home. Well, if I connect my iPhone to Mac to synch music from Mac to iPhone 4, the iPhone get not recognized and I am therefore not able to get my music from Mac on my iPhone.
During update on Mac, I got the error message on OS is telling "Installing iTunes.pkg could not completed, this package needs Mac OSX 10.5.
If I search on Mac for new update, it says "your system is updated and there is no other update available"
With other words, I can not get higher release on Mac why I am not able to get a new version of iTunes on Mac and therefore why I am not able to synch my music from Mac to iPhone. Very frustrating.
Any advise is welcome.
Thank you.

You will need to upgrade your version of OS on your Mac. You will need Leopard (10.5.8) or Snow Leopard (10.6.X)

Round trip export/import from Mac OSX iCal

Since there isn't an iSync plug-in for Oracle Calendar (yet?) I thought I'd try a round-trip import/export between Oracle Calendar and Mac OSX iCal. Inconvenient, but it should would because the UIDs in the .ics file would be the same and an import would overlay over the existing entries.
Wrong -- if I export an event from iCal, import it into Oracle Calendar, then export it again and look at the .ics file, the UID is different. Consequently, I get duplicate entries at the end of the round trip.
What good is the "U"-Unique of UID if it isn't kept consistently? From the standard: "Implementations MUST be able to receive and persist values of at least 255 characters for this property."

I've ran into an issue when exporting/importing a .csv file from OSX.And this "issue" is...?
Exporting from? Importing to?
APEX version?
Database version?
Database character set?
Database host OS and version?
EPG, OHS or OAS (and version)?
DAD character set (if any)?
OS X version?
Some, none or all of the above may or not be relevant, but without more information to go on, all you are going to get are random guesses.

Forms9i from Mac OSX

Hello,
Is anyone has an experience with runing Forms9i on a Mac OSX system ?
Thanks in advance.
Francois.

I've been able to get test 10g/10gAS webforms to run on Mac OS X (Safari, IR, and Netscape 7.2) using the following configs from the FORMSWEB.CFG file.
As always, this is an unsupported configuration (though Oracle has been promising certification for close to two years now). Your mileage may vary.

How can I delete LogMein from mac osx

How can I deltee LogMein from my Mac OSX computer?

The link above is no longer appropriate!
If you are running a current version of Logmein i.e. 2013/2014 you need to do the following:-
1. Open the Logmein control panel
2. Click About
3. Click Unistall button.
Thank you--this was just what I needed to uninstall LogMeIn from OS X 10.9.2. I only wish there were a way of making your solution more prominent.

Removing hard drives from Mac g4 tower dual proc?

I have the original hard drive, plus two added drives, in my PowerMac G4 tower, (dual mirrored drive doors). All the photos/videos/instructions online, don't seem to match my configuration, where the original drive is vertical, along the back of the tower, under the horizontal power supply, while the added drives are under the CD and DVD drives at the front of the tower. I need data fromt the drive related to a thesis project, as well as other work, have had a grey screen problem (unrelated to the drives) that is unresolvable, so bought a G5, and will use some drives and new wireless card from G4 that are compatable. I have tried to put G4 tower in target disk mode to transfer to G5 via firewire, but no luck. Drives don't show on desktop. Since intending to remove all drives from G4 anyway, will try to use them externally, or internally, to access files.
Problem is, I can't access where it looks like the screws are for the original vertical hard drive, can't find instructions online, or examples that look lik mine. What else needs to be removed in order to access this? Please Help!

The drives will not work internally in the G5 if they're IDE/ATA drives, G5s use SATA drives, but there are some external options.
It's been a long time, but I seem to remember the rear Drive(s) cage was released with a gray or maybe tan lever that needed pushing one way while sliding the cage...
AHA, there the little beggar is, Step 6...

Music will not transfer from Mac (OSX 10.9.3) to iPhone via cloud

Music will not transfer from my Mac (OSX 10.9.3) to my iPhone except for music purchased through iTunes. Hard sync doesn't seems to work as I use iCloud. Suggestions?
