  • Installtion and Update problems

    Hello community
    I have an iMac Intel (late 2007 model I think) and an iPhone 3GS. On my iMac, I have one user, who is adminstrator. I have following very strange behaviour:
    Last time, when I was updating my iPhone through iTunes (8.2.1) from 3.0 to 3.0.1 the download finished in iTunes, but the update process went totally wrong, so I had a dead iPhone for several hours. I tried several times, deleted the package file, redownloaded it through iTunes, nothing.
    Eventually, I could fix the problem (thanks to Apple Support Website) by creating a second (administrator) user, and updating my iPhone from that user's account.
    So far this one thing.
    The second strange behaviour is, that if I buy an App from AppStore, and download ith through iTunes, I cannot sync that app onto my iPhone. If I want new apps on my iPhone, I have to go through the mobile AppStore on the iPhone itself. The error I receive, when trying to sync the new apps from iTunes is an unknown one (iTunes actually says "an unknown error occured, try later" - thanks iTunes)...
    I was not able to test if this issue is also solved by the second new and unused profile, but I have the strong feeling it would, if I tried.
    The third issue is similar to those above, but it does not involve the iPhone. I have trouble installing packages from DMG files. Sometimes the DiskImage cannot be mounted, sometimes package verification fails and installation stops. This happens randomly: I tried to install the iPhone SDK, first the install cancelled because of some package validation, then (after a restart) the DiskImage checksum failed, then after a few more restarts, the DiskImage mounter throwed some codec overflow error, then after another few restarts the package installtion cancelled because of the package validation again (the DiskImage mounted miraculously).
    Guess what the solution was: use the new and unused administrator account to download ans install the package. It worked. At the first try. As it's meant to be...
    What the heck is going on? It seems to me, that a user profile gets messed up with time, because I didn't have ANY problems when I got my iMac. And the new user (created a week ago or so) works as expected (for now).
    Anyone experienced the same? Am I supposed to reinstall my Mac like Windowze users have to every few months (guess what: reinstalling solves all 3 problems above - but they return)???
    Thanks for anything.
    Regards, matfi
    PS: I tested the iPhone SDK download with FF3.5.2, and Safari4, the download finishes but in both cases, the errors are the same. I have a direct internet connection, no proxies or whatsoever. The install error sometimes occurs with system updates, and already occured with 3rd party software installers too (like NeoOffice, Firefox, and others)

    The behaviour started before 10.5.8, I think the iMac was shipped with 10.5.6 and I had problems already with that version. I always use Software Update, so I honestly don't know if I got the Combo or Delta update.
    Any suggestions which housekeeping utilities/tastks should/could be used here? The only thing I was running every time these problems occured was "Repair Disk" and "Repair Permissions" with DiskUtility (didn't help though, but I still didn't give up hope). The Repair Permissions found tons of errors and corrected them, but as I said - no results.
    I will check the console for errors and post if there was something interesting in there.
    Thanks
    regards

  • Oracle forms 10g,multiple insert and update problem

    Hi,
    I have tabular form(4 records displayed) with one datablock(based on a view).
    After querying the form could not update all the records but only first record value can select from LOV.
    I called a procedure in in-insert and on-update
    The query is lik this
    PACKAGE BODY MAPPING IS

    Whether the table gets looked or sholud i use some other trigger or loops ?
    someone suggest me how to edit this query for multiple update.
    Thanks
    sat33

    I called a procedure in in-insert and on-updateWhy are you writing this code in the first place? If you have a block based on an updatable view, just let Forms do the inserts and updates.
    If it's not an updatable view, use instead of triggers on the view.
    See this current thread too:
    INSTEAD of Trigger View for an Oracle EBS New form development

  • Folder icon with exclamation point...and updater problems

    So here's what has happened to me today:
    I plugged my iPod into my computer(this is a computer WITHOUT iPod installed yet) to charge. In the meantime, I downloaded the latest iPod updater and iTunes. The first time I used the updater, it told me that there was an iPod service error. I followed some instructions on the apple support site..and The next time I tried, it told me that one or more applications were using the iPod. I knew this wasn't the case, because the only application open was the updater, and no antivirus software was currently running. So I took my iPod back to my laptop computer(DOES have iPod installed) and it also told me that one or more applications were using the iPod, even though there were no applications open.
    So now I have a little folder with an exclamation point that tells me to go to the apple support site, which I have been to numerous times...I can put my iPod into disk mode which really doesn't help anyways...

    Then
    If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
    Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
    A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
    Intermediate Level
    A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
    B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“Partition Magic”.
    C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iPod updater.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    Advance Level
    A. Diagnostic mode solution
    If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
    You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
    Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
    iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
    The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
    iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
    You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
    Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
    B. Format your iPod with a start disk
    I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
    If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
    Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ at your own risk
    http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
    Just in case that you are at the following situation
    Your iPod warranty is expired
    You don’t want to pay any service charges
    You are prepared to buy a new one
    You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
    Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
    You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
    Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
    Last Resort Level
    1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
    In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)
    http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/index.cfm?page=Video/directory.html
    2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
    Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.
    2. Do a search on Google and some topics on this discussion forum about “Sad iPod”
    What should I do with my iPod? Send it or keep it?

  • N78 Window Transition and Update Problem

    Hello!
    I finally updated the firmware of my N78. However, I noticed that not all features are functioning well. One would be the volume control. Before, I use the upper side buttons to control it when my phones either on standby, using the radio or using realplayer. And, the transition from the portrait mode (phone's normal mode) to landscape mode (mode for viewing pictures, videos, and when using the camera) is gone. Before, the screen rotates. Now, when i press my camera button, my phone goes to camera mode but the screen does not rotate.it only fades with some nasty random lines transition. actually i dont call that a transition. the same goes when i view my pictures and my videos. there is no window transition. is there a problem in my phone. what should i do?
    (^_^)
    (T_T)
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    thank you for replying mark_kehl!!! it seems that your solution worked. however, i still have other problems like the volume control button. sometimes, my phone suddenly halts when i am using music player. hmmmm... i believe that my phone is really defective. Nokia has already advised me to return this phone to the store where i bought it but... unfortunately, i dont have time. i am traveling very often and there are more important business to attend to than returning my defective phone.isnt it that nokia should really check its products before being they are put to the market. i am really bothered about this. i mean, as far as i know, nokia has the largest market share when it comes to mobile phones and related electronics... but i'm sure... because of these minor imperfections... its fellow competitors in the market will grab those unsatisfied costumers. anyway, its not my concern. i'm planning to sell my phone next year and probably, i'll buy an LG, Samsung or Sony-Ericson phone. it seems that i overestimated nokia. i committed a fallacy: argumentum ad populum... hahahahaha.
    oh... it seems it is time for me to travel again...
    thanks again for your reply... merry christmas!!! have a bountiful new year!!!

  • Unable to log into itunes store (0x80092013) and update problems

    I am having problems logging into the itunes store using itunes 10.6.0.40 in Wndows 7 in the uk  which results in the error message shown below:
    'We could not complete your itunes store request.  An unknown error occurred (0x80092013).  There was an error in the itunes store please try again later"
    However, I am able to browse the itunes store without any problems (this does not require logging in).
    In addition selecting the menu item Help > Check for updates in itunes results in the message "The itunes server could not be contacted.  Please check your internet connection or try again later'
    I also have two ipods and an ipad and clicking on the <Check For Update> button on each of them within itunes results in the error message "The ipod update server could not be contacted.  Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connectivity is active or try again later". 
    In trying to fix the above problems I have tried the following:
    Re-installed itunes
    Ran ipconfig /flushdns
    Changed my dns entries to use dynamic dns entries and also tried googles settings (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)
    Put entries in the hosts file for gs.apple.com etc
    Reset the winsock using the command netsh winsock reset
    Turned Norton smart firewall off completely
    Ensured interent settings were set to 'Check for server certificate revocation' was unticked and "SSL 3.0" and "TLS 1.0." were both ticked
    General internet connectivity is working fine it is just itunes where the problems are.
    I can also log onto the itunes store from the ipad itself without a problem.
    I also have a Windows Vista laptop which can connect to the itunes store without a problem and can also run the menu item Help > Check for updates and results in a message saying itunes is the latest version.  This also runs Norton Smart Firewall and is having no problems.  So I am assuming from this that my setup is not at fault and it is not an isp issue.
    I have also noticed that a number of other people are reporting problems logging into the itunes store and also error 0x80092013.
    The results of an itunes diagnostic test (Help > Run Diagnostics) are shown below (this shows that the itunes store can be browsed but attempts at prurchasing etc cannot be completed)

    I have spoken directly with Apple over the last couple of hours.  They are aware of the problem and are going to ask their engineering department to investigate.  It is perhaps not a big priority at the moment as they say they only have 30 confirmed reports of the issue worldwide.
    Is it possible that there are other people who are having the same problem and are watching the forums waiting for answers?  If so, please report the problem.  This is the only way for Apple to understand the scale of the problem (if indeed it is a big problem) and to be able to escalate the issue and allocate suitable resources.  The issue we are seeing is:
    I mentioned what you said about downgrading - I have also contemplated this but I am expecting I will need to run 10.6 for HD media and syncing with the new iPad.  Apple agree downgrading is not an acceptable solution, and there must be a way forward, but if you dont need 10.6 then why not downgrade until the problems are resolved.
    My take on the problem is this:
    The error code is the same as a Windows error code that suggests the issue is with accessing the certificate revovation lists (CRL).  iTunes 10.6 is a signed application that needs to access a CRL to determine whether its certificate is still active.   iTunes own diagnostic tool points in the same direction too.  The network connectivity test (see image below) shows the network interface and internet connection are fine.  It is just the secure link that is failing.  It is possible to view the apple store, and download podcasts etc.. but it is not possible to sign into an account or make purchases.
    One person has replied to many of these postings suggesting the problem can be fixed by updating DNS settings, which could add weight to this theory.  The person who posted this didnt explain why this worked for them, but if DNS settings have not propogated fully for a new CRL this could be causing problems for some users.  If so this could just fix itself in the coming days, or it may work if you can connect to the internet from a different connection like a public wifi hotspot.
    I will post updates if I get anywhere or hear anything back from Apple.

  • [SOLVED] TeXLive: Installing font package and updating font map fails

    I am trying to install the newtx package, which is available here at CTAN [1].
    Since I don't want to mess with my TeXLive installation, I am trying to do that as a local user only.
    So I placed the package into ~/texmf/tex/latex/. , ran texhash on texmf/ to update my local ls-R, and so far everything works nicely; for example, the .sty files in that package can be seen:
    $ texhash texmf
    texhash: Updating /home/$USER/texmf/ls-R...
    texhash: Done.
    $ kpsewhich newtxmath.sty
    /home/$USER/texmf/tex/latex/newtx/newtxmath.sty
    Now, following the packages README [2], I need to update the my TeX font maps. Seems like 'updmap' is the right tool to do that for my user only:
    $ updmap --enable Map=ntx.map
    copy /etc/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg => /home/$USER/.texlive/texmf-config/web2c/updmap.cfg

    Did you run mktexlsr?
    You can delete non-existent map entries using the option
    --syncwithtrees.
    That's my problem: it can't find ntx.map, although I ran mktexlsr (which is texhash). So what to do?
    1: http://www.ctan.org/pkg/newtx
    2: http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/CTAN … wtx/README
    SOLUTION: The trick consists in placing all files into the necessary folders: *.map goes to fonts/map/newtx/, *.vf to fonts/vf/newtx/, and *.tfm to fonts/tfm/newtx/. Also, *.pfb needs to be placed in fonts/pfb/newtx/. *.enc files go to fonts/enc/newt/, and everything else remains in tex/latex/newtx/.

I just meant, can you find ntx.map yourself? If so, you could put it in a new directory or let tex know with the TEXINPUTS environment variable.
    I really don't think that this makes a lot of sense as regards TeXlive; I have checked (with kpsewhich --var-value) if indeed all variables TEXMFHOME, TEXMFVAR, and TEXMFCONFIG are pointing to reasonable places, and indeed they do.
    I have found this guide:
    http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ … n/ch4.html
    Although it is Debian, I figure one can easily adapt it. So I tried that, and placed ntx.map in TEXMFHOME/fonts/map/$SYNTAX/newtx/ntx.map . I wasn't sure about $SYNTAX, so I just tried it with dvips. This time, $ updmap --enable Map=ntx.map did actually work, and there were not errors:

  • [SOLVED] XFCE4.10 main panel and freeze problem

    Hello everyone.
    I just have upgraded to XFCE4.10 and after rebooting (as the update included also a new kernel) the main panel is double its size just like the icons. I would have included a screenshot but here is where my second problem appears.
    Whenever I try to open a window the system just freezes.
    The strange thing is that when I try random things (checking 'Appearance' to see if my Oxygen theme wasn't working anymore with 4.10 or fixing the missing 'Separator' issue for correct window display - former freezed though after clicking on 'Accept') it works but the 'real' things (opening browser - both from applications menu or xfce shortcut panel - or Thunar) do not.
    I also noted that when trying to save the 'Separator' fix when I hit the actions button to close the session I was directly just given that option instead of displaying the full menu of restart etc.
    Should I consider this a new issue or something I have to setup in 4.10 in comparison to 4.8 where it work perfectly?
    I am considering a kernel downgrade to see if it fixes the freeze issue though I doubt, if it does, it would relate to the panel size issue (or that 'only close session' allowance that I have just referred to). The reason for not having tried the downgrade yet is that the system apparently works fine as long as I do not open any window "for real", as said.
    Any suggestions?

    %$$& Wrote everything nicely down and got logged out xD
    Let's see how much I remember.
    First of all, right now writing from my downgraded 3.3.3-1 kernel. I didn't succeed doing the downgrade while the 3.3.4-1 was loaded thus I had to do it using the change root method. That way I also discovered the, apparent, reason for the user modules fail at startup and the freezing at the login screen I reported in #3. Somehow the system was using the 3.3.3-1 kernel (I do not know when it installed successfully) but the 3.3.4-1 headers. Most likely I made a mistake somewhere during my previous change root attempt when fixing a *new* unable to find root device that popped up then.
    As said, I have been able to downgrade using the Arch Install CD and through the change root method but received the warning,
    directory permissions differ on usr/src/linux-3.3.3-1-ARCH/
    filesystem: 700 package: 755
    after the install/downgrade of each package (linux-docs, linux-headers and linux). Should I consider this a new problem? System works fine so far thus I am not sure about this.
    Prior to successfully downgrading I tried to install the LTS kernel but wasn't successful with the 3.3.4-1 kernel loaded. Just like with the downgrade I tried using the change root method and could install it.
    But despite updating grub's menu.lst accordingly I was receiving an 'unable to find root device message' which could not be fixed through the change root method just like with the 3.3.4-1 kernel (in case of the LTS one changing the final step from mkinitcpio -p linux to mkinitcpio -p linux-lts as far as I understand it). I might give it another try installing it in this working environment later on and report back with the results.
    @ConnorBehan
    As I have just stated the user modules fail message and the login screen freeze were surely my fault but the error messages I referred to from the beginning with the 3.3.4-1 kernel were like these,
    .... = increasing numbers/disk sectors(?) (left/right)

    @foutrelis
    You may be right with regard to the drive as it is a quite old laptop I am running Arch on. Now that you refer to the drive could the freeze/errors I reported to ConnorBehan be related to the tweaking of the vm.vfs_cache_pressure value I did?
    I am just taking a wild guess myself comparing my ide drive to your ssd one. I had never had this kind of problem prior to 3.3.4-1. Just as if this kernel could not handle my tweak anymore (value is 50 and worked fine so far).

  • Border / paint and update problem

    Hi,
    I have written a simple GUI and have two problems:
    first, a white border is being displayed a the right, left and bottom side.
    Second: for testing purposes I am drawing a simple rectangle; I am starting at (1, 1) but it's actually being drawn maybe at (-5, -5). Sometimes it's not being drawn at all.
    Here is my code:

    }I am not sure about the paint / update method. I read the Swing tutorial and found examples where the drawing is being done in the update method... Does this have certain advantages?

  • Playback and update problems with FrontRow

    I have FrontRow 1.2.2 installed on my Mac Pro (10.4.10). Everything is working except playing music videos. The error message I get is 'There are no music videos in your iTunes library.'
    But there definitely are music videos in my iTunes library. They are even purchased ones. They have the little check mark set and the genre on all of them is set to 'Music Video'. They play perfectly in iTunes (v7.4.2).
    I've erased com.apple.frontrow.plist and com.apple.iTunes.plist in ~/Library/Preferences/ but it didn't help.
    I then read something about the FrontRowUpdate1.3.1. I downloaded it from apple.com, but I can't install it because: 'This software update requires a Macintosh with a built-in infrared (IR) receiver running Mac OS X 10.4.5 or later.'
    As the Mac Pro doesn't come with a IR receiver the update won't install.
    Basically I have two questions:
    1. Does anyone know how to get music videos playing in FrontRow 1.2.2?
    2. Does anyone know hot to update FrontRow 1.2.2 to FrontRow 1.3.1 on a Mac Pro?
    Any help is very welcome!
    As a side note: I have a copy of the very same iTunes library on my MacBook Pro. FrontRow 1.3.1 plays everything including the music videos. So I guess it's a problem with the out-dated version of FrontRow.

    Front Row is not supported by Apple on the Mac Pro towers. Front Row is only supported on Macs with built-in IR receivers. It may have been included in the bundle of software installed from the factory, but it won't run without manually changing/hacking specific system files.
    Front Row for all Macs will be included with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) which is scheduled for a release sometime next month. I would suggest you upgrade to Leopard so you can get support for Front Row on your system.

  • Software Update problems and update problems

    Hi eveyone. I recently bought a used macbook with windows installed and decided to install leopard. unfortunatly there are some problems. 1st: Software update does not work, when I run it it says that it couldnt connect to the server. I've tried multple times but always the same. So then I try going to the apple downloads section and getting the 10.5.3 and security updates there. When i start the 10.5.3 update there is a message saying that it could not be installed on the volume: this happens with all the versions from 10.5.1 to 10.5.3. Can someone please help? I never had any problems with tiger updating either way.

    What are you using to try to install Leopard? AFAIK, you need a retail Leopard install set.

  • App syncing and update problem

    Please, explain me why a single app (for instance D8 or D17, just installed from the store) can prevent to sync or update iOS 8.
    Itunes is stucked with the message "Waiting for changes to be applied".
    It's a real pain to establish which app causes this problem.

  • [SOLVED] Fluxbox won't work and mirror problem

    Hello all, I recently tried to make the switch to Arch again from Ubuntu. Ran into some trouble though. Obviously I was using the 64 bit version. It installed just fine, but once I booted into it I couldn't use pacman to install anything or even refresh. After a bit of playing I found the file where the mirrors hide. The one I set in installation was uncommented as it should be but not working so up above I uncommented the same one (ibilio) and that fixed that. Is that a normal problem? Anyhow no biggie so I moved on. I go for straight Fluxbox. So I installed xorg and fluxbox. But for the life of me I can not get it to boot to fluxbox. Keeps going to twm. I tried everything in the fluxbox guide from the Arch wiki to get it going with no luck. Finally gave up and went back to Ubuntu. Now I used the 32 bit a time or two on an old computer and fluxbox worked fine. Here like I say startx would bring up twm. And startfluxbox (think thats the right command) would get a cannot connect to xserver error. Any ideas? I sure would love to use Arch. Sorry I can't be more precise on how it went but I no longer have it installed. If someone thinks they can help me with this though I would love to try again. Thanks.

    Ah, sorry, I should have specified that you add it to your ~/.xinitrc file, and you will most likely have to make then edit that file (as I did) yourself.
    touch ~/.xinitrc
    and then, with your text editor of choice add this line to that file
    exec startfluxbox
    and save. If that still doesn't work let me know
    You will always get kicked back to the command line, as X cannot find any login manager, and you had no user-specified fallback file that it would look for instead, so it fell back finally on the system-wide fallback, which is TWM.
    So you have to rely on writing your own way to start x, which is the ~/.xinitrc file. Otherwise it will always find twm.
    If you really don't want twm,  you can easily remove it (I don't have it installed at all) with a simple 'pacman -R xorg-twm'.
