Software doesn't work on mac
hi, i just got an airbook. i have never had a mac before. it is nice, but my language software ( digital publishing) doesn't work on mac, but i don't want xp or vista on my computer. are there any patches or other software which could make my language software work? thanks
*"are there any patches or other software which could make my language software work?"*
You could try CrossoverMac from Codeweavers.com
Otherwise, you'll need to see if there is a Mac version of your software, or else install Windows on your Mac.

Had to reinstall my system and now software doesn't work
Hi, my powerbook recently died or something, so that whenever I switched it on some code would show up. Well I reinstalled mac os x, and I'm able to get back on. But lots of the software doesn't work. That includes itunes, safari, firefox, garageband, and all my photos that I had in iphoto are gone. Some told me to reinstall those programs or update them from apple's website, but the only browser on my computer that works is internet explorer, and it won't finish loading the pages to instal safari or itunes. So I can never get to them. I tried firefox, but once I download the image and try to mount it, it says failure and corrupt image.
I also can't even get on to some other websites, like hotmail.com, so I can't even check my email for some reason.
I'm kind of at a loss here for how to get back my old photos, use my old programs and basically do anything on this laptop. I tried using software update to update mac os x to 10.3.9, but that didn't change anything.
By the way, I don't have internet at home so I've been going online at starbux to do this stuff. I appreciate any help someone can give me.
*it seems I accidently posted this in the wrong category since I have a 15-inch. I don't know how to delete this or move it, so if someone could help regardless that'd be great.
Message was edited by: Homer PapadopoulosYeah I have the original CDs. And I have backed up some stuff. But shouldn't things like safari and itunes be working anyway? The applications are there, they just won't open. Someone told me would lose my preferences and just had to update them again, but I can't do so cause safari doesn't work and internet explorer won't let me get on certain sites...

Both Chrome and Safari interrupt online streaming to request/demand an update for a PC program that doesn't work on Macs. What is going on?
The update alerts are fake, and are intended to dupe you into installing malware or disclosing private information so that your identity can be stolen.
You might get the alerts when visiting a website that has been hacked. Don't visit the site again. If applicable, notify the site administrator of the problem, but don't send email to an unknown party.
If you get the alerts when visiting more than one well-known website, such as Google, YouTube, or Facebook, then they're almost certainly the result of an attack on your router that has caused you to get false results from looking up the addresses of Internet servers. Requests sent to those sites are redirected to a server controlled by the attacker. It's possible, but less likely, that the DNS server used by your ISP has been attacked, but you should assume that the router is at fault until proven otherwise.
The router's documentation should tell you how to reset it to the factory default state. Usually there's a pinhole switch somewhere in the back. It may be labeled "RESET." Insert the end of a straightened paper clip or a similar tool and press the button inside for perhaps 15 seconds, or as long as the instructions specify.
After resetting the router, quit the web browser and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Do the equivalent if you use another browser. Open the Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
Then go through the router's initial setup procedure. I can't be specific, because it's different for every model. The key points are these:
1. Don't allow the router to be administered from the WAN (Internet) port, if it has that option. Most do.
2. Set a strong password to protect the router's settings: at least ten random upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Don't use the default password or any other that could be guessed. Save the password in your keychain. Any password that you can remember is weak.
3. If the router is wireless, or if you have a wireless access point on the network, use "WPA 2 Personal" security and set a different strong password to protect the network. If the router or access point doesn't support WPA 2, it's obsolete and must be replaced.
During the time the router was compromised, you were redirected to bogus websites. If you ever connected to a secure site and got a warning from your browser that the identity of the server could not be verified, and you dismissed that warning in order to log in, assume that your credentials for the site have been stolen and that the attacker has control of the account. This warning also applies to all websites on which you saw the fake update alerts.
Check the router manufacturer's website for a firmware update.
If you downloaded and installed what you thought was a software update, ask for instructions. -

I have purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 4 and now my first dvd of the software doesn't work anymore. My computer doesn't want to read it anymore. I want to mention that I also tried on some other computers and still the problems continues. How can I solve this? On the Adobe webpage I can't find anymore the download for Adobe CS4. Thanks.

[T410s] Lenovo Software doesn't work for me
Hi,
System:
- T410s 2912 W69, (8 GB RAM)
- Windows 7 Prof. 64bit
The following software is installed on my system: Office Prof. Plus 2010 (64bit), SQL Server 2008 R2 (64bit), Visual Studio Ultimate 2010, Sybase Powerdesigner 15.2, Adobe Reader 9 and Kaspersky IS 2011.
Since some days nearly the whole Lenovo Software doesn't work. The only exception is System Update 4.
When I try to start e.g. Lenovo Toolbox I get the error message "ThinkVantage Toolbox doesn't work...". A View into the Windows solution center offers the following message:

The rest of the software mentioned above works great and fast. Only the Lenovo software doesn't work. This is rather annoying, because I can't change e.g. important property values in the power manager.
I've deinstalled and installed (manually) again graphics driver as well as the troubleshooting software without success.
What shell I do now?
Regards
Dorian
Moderator edit: Title adjusted to better reflect message contentDorian,
You found me! Thanks for the logs. They confirmed what I was suspecting: a font problem is causing any application built on Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) to crash. Based on our research there are two potential issues. The fixes are pretty easy.
One or more of your installed fonts does not have a proper date/time
The Registry may have some invalid font path entries
To Detect and Fix the Font Invalid/Missing Date Problem
Open an elevated command prompt (CMD.EXE) and navigate to C:\Windows\Fonts\
Save a font listing to your desktop with the command: DIR *.* /tw /od > %USERPROFILE%\desktop\fontlist.txt
3. Open fontlist.txt with notepad.
4. Remove any fonts with a missing or invalid date (January 1, 1601 for example). Easiest way to do this is by opening Windows Explorer, going to the fonts folder (C:\Windows\Fonts\), and removing the offending fonts.
5. Open LTT or one of the other TVTs to see if the problem is solved. If not, continue with the next section.
To Detect and Fix the Font Registry Problem
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. I cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk!
Open the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE)
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts
Scan the "Data" column for each font looking for any illegal path characters
If any are found, remove the offending characters. Here are some blogs that may offer additional insight: http://code.logos.com/blog/2009/11/how_to_crash_every_wpf_application.html and http://alissonsol.blogspot.com/2009/02/when-wpf-applications-dont-start.html
Let me know how it goes.

Burned in Nero Express through Windows, doesn't work on Mac
So I just burned a Data DVD (files like music and mac applications) on Windows, using Nero Express, but then I mount it on my Powermac G5 PPC and it doesn't work, my mac doesn't recognize it, what's the problem ?
Thanks.Did you close the disc, or leave it open for further burning sessions?

iPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?
At least to 10.6.8. You must do this to upgrade to Mountain Lion.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

[BUG]: MakeWritable doesn't work for mac
I'm trying to use oracle.jdeveloper.refactoring.util.MakeWritableHelper in my plugin, and I found it doesn't work for MAC. The byte code shows it only check the osname for "Windows" and "Linux".
and some Jdeveloper refactoring feature failed due to can't make file writable, they may also related to this class.My MAC version is OSX 10.5.4.
I don't have a stacktrace. It just fails silently.
You can easily reproduce this bug by reformat a readonly file.
Here is the code I reverse engineered from oracle.jdeveloper.refactoring.util.Util.java:
public static boolean setReadOnly(java.net.URL url, boolean readOnly)
boolean ret = false;
java.lang.String cmdarray[] = null;
java.lang.String platformPathName = oracle.ide.net.URLFileSystem.getPlatformPathName(url);
java.lang.String osName = java.lang.System.getProperty("os.name", "");
if(osName.startsWith("Windows"))
cmdarray = (new java.lang.String[] {
"ATTRIB", readOnly ? "+R" : "-R", (new StringBuilder()).append('"').append(platformPathName).append('"').toString()
else
if(platformPathName.equalsIgnoreCase("Linux"))
cmdarray = (new java.lang.String[] {
"chmod", readOnly ? "u-w" : "u+w", (new StringBuilder()).append('"').append(platformPathName).append('"').toString()
if(cmdarray != null)
java.lang.Runtime runtime = java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime();
try
java.lang.Process process = runtime.exec(cmdarray);
if(process.waitFor() == 0)
ret = (new File(platformPathName)).canWrite();
if(ret)
oracle.ide.model.Node node = oracle.ide.model.NodeFactory.find(url);
if(node instanceof oracle.ide.model.TextNode)
oracle.ide.model.TextNode textNode = (oracle.ide.model.TextNode)node;
textNode.isReadOnly();
catch(java.io.IOException e)
e.printStackTrace();
catch(java.lang.InterruptedException e)
e.printStackTrace();
return ret;

Account doesn't work on Mac Mail but does on iPhone
I have a IMAP email account with my company that works on my iPhone and in Entourage but doesn't work in Mac Mail. I have tried to copy the settings and even did a full erase and reinstall of Leopard and no one has an idea why it won't work, the hosting company or Pro Care. Any idea out there?

After I have upgraded to the new iOS 6.1.2, the email software doesn't work and is not downloading. While before it was working fine.
How to fix this?There seems to be massive amounts of problems with every aspect of iOS 6. From what I understand all you can do is try and reset your device and pray that Apple bequeaths working software next time or allows users to revert to iOS 5 while they search for someone who knows what they are doing. Perhaps you will need to use an alternate email app until then? (Although, Gmail seems to be the only one that works properly)

Camera Raw 5.7 doesn't work with MAC Elements 6
RAW 5.7 doesn't work on Elements 6.
5.6 works fine, placing the plugin in the /PLUG-INS/CS3/FILE FORMATS and starting Elements 6 and trying to open a raw file says
Unable to use camera raw plugin
It is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements
I have read the 5.7 raw read-me and it definitely says that it is compatible with MAC Elements 6 could somebody confirm this?Thank you, another case of big corporations screwing over the little guy. You want the latest update - you have to upgrade your complete software package. Wouldn't it be nice if they made the plugin compatible with the products as stated in their documentation and then posted a note saying that further updates will not be compatible?
After all, windows users got a version 7, us poor MAC users didn't!
Anyway thanks for the answers.
