Some dmg images fail to open on 10.6, work on 10.5

In the process of updating Office 2008 without using MS Auto Update, I downloaded the 12.2.0 update from the MS website as a dmg. The image opens with no problems on machines running 10.5.8. It fails to open on machines running 10.6.3 or 4. I've tested three machines with each version of OS X and the results are consistent. The error given on Snow Leopard is
"The following disk images couldn't be opened
Office2008-1220UpdateEN.dmg Image data corrupted"
The image is being downloaded to each machine perfectly - I've checked the SHA1 hash for the file and it's the same on all machines.
Using hdiutil to open the image shows that Snow Leopard is having a problem with the checksum of the HFS part of the image:
Checksumming Driver Descriptor Map (DDM : 0)…
Driver Descriptor Map (DDM : 0): verified CRC32 $FB1834EF
Checksumming Apple (Applepartitionmap : 1)…
Apple (Applepartitionmap : 1): verified CRC32 $3613B27D
Checksumming disk image (Apple_HFS : 2)…
disk image (Apple_HFS : 2): checksum failed with error 1000.
Verification completed…
Error 1000 (image data corrupted).
calculated CRC32 $951A6B86, expected CRC32 $49C7A9E5
To test this yourself, have a look at the MS Office page:

Any ideas, anyone?

True, although if the image is corrupt it's odd that it works on 10.5 and not 10.6.
Here, with the file I've had for ages that mounts happily on SL,
SHA1(Office2008-1220UpdateEN.dmg)= 4bab1dd039583f762df1576a97b4eba8cd5b63b7
Does that match yours?
No.
SHA1(Office2008-1220UpdateEN.dmg)= 21dea53cb07e85c4c7adaecad7c2153a52b2fdd6
Either MS have changed something in that update or my copy is corrupt. Once I get out from behind this firewall I'll try again and see what happens on a machine at home.

Lightroom 5 on a Mac os 10.8.5 will not start. It fails to open. And it worked fine the other day.

lightroom 5 on a Mac os 10.8.5 will not start. It fails to open. And it worked fine the other day.

Reh... Doesn't work on my 2012 Mac mini. A function key set in Sys Prefs worked in Leopard and Lion on my MB but I cannot get any key to work using SysPref Dictation & Speech. It is befuddling and now I have to go to Edit-Speech to turn on and turn off speech to selected text.
I have used Macs and Apple 2es since cave man days and Apple is becoming so befuddling I am wondering if there is even an advantage to it over Windows XP. I spent a lot on this little box, it looks good (the first one had to be exchanged as it wouldn't link to my keyboard ???) but Apple intuitive does no longer seem meaningful.
If speech to text no longer is accessible by short cuts using Fkeys, why bother to have it in Syst Prefs?
Apple is losing its way. The pleasure is gone and no one at Apple seems to care.

Sparse Image fails to open

I have a sparse image containing important data. It recently failed to open (mount) when I double clicked the icon. When I used Disk Utility to attempt to mount the image the result was the following message:
Unable to attach "XXX.sparseimage" - Device not configured.
No crashes of the system have occurred since the last time it successfully mounted. The only thing I can remember is that I used Disk Utility to "Verify Disk", something I have never done before. The result was "Volume passed verification." I have not yet checked my backup which I will do shortly.
Any suggestions?

You can try repairing the image rather than simply verifying. However, if the image isn't repairable, then it's likely lost. You could try using data recovery software:
I's possible to recover lost or damaged files that have not been overwritten with recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.

P_wi_id in DynamicParameter fails, donu00B4t open workitem, with wi_id works ok

Hi experts,
We have an ECC 6.0 EHP3 with a EP 7 (Netweaver 2004s SP18). We use the UWL.
The issue is when we try to open a taks in the UWL that launch a transaction in the ECC, it can´t open, show this error:
Work item 000000000000 cannot be read
This is because in the parameter "DynamicParameter" it pass the value "p_wi_id%3D000000007066". It can´t resolve "p_".
The url is try to open is this:

If I copy this url in a browser and delete u201Cp_u201D DynamicParameter=wi_id%3D000000007066 , it works fine, open the workitem.
Here is the code for the task in the uwl xml:
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I add this property in the xml:
<Property name="WI_ID" value="${item.externalId}"/>
And that solves the problem.

HiRISE JP2 Images fail to open in CS6 (64bit) - Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file.

Unable to open any of the HiRISE images within PS CS6. Receive the following error: "Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file."

I downloaded a small HiRise JP2 and used Preview to export as Tiff. It opens up just fine.
Apparently the JP2 takes up an awful lot of memory uncompressing, and Photoshop gives up.

Nikon D800 Images Fail To Open ACR 7 / PS

And please ask your camera manufacturer to natively support the DNG format, so that its files could be converted by hundreds of programs at the day of release of the camera.
The current situation is so absurd that even the camera manufacturers need to update their own converters to offer support of their own new cameras!
Now wouldn't that be nice? So why do the camera manufactures take such a proprietorial stance over their RAW file formats? It hardly gets in the way of apps like DxO Optics, Adobe ACR and LR, Magic Lantern. Just slows them down a bit.

Help with making start up disk from .dmg image on hard drive

HI Guys hope you can help i have a .DMG image of my OSX install files and need to know how i burn this onto a dvd so i can use it as a start up disk or do a reinstall.
Never had to even think about any of this before so an idiots guide would be most useful burned the .dmg image to a disk but it wont work as a start up disk and if i open it once inserted it wont work using the start up disk application within system preferences
Any help appreciated

An image of your hard drive? No. A copy of Tiger DVD?
It could be done under Panther with a program called BootCD, but not Tiger.
Why? when you can easily clone your system to a FW drive partition and use that as needed. Or use TechTool Pro 4.5.1 to put an "eDrive" on your boot drive or another drive (~7GB) just for emergencies.
You can use Disk Utility to Restore your boot drive to a disk image and back if you want to store it on another drive and in the event of disaster striking and you need to erase and restore.

Problems mounting dmg images "no mountable file systems"

I have noticed with many DMG images I cannot open them. I constantly get an error "no mountable file systems".I sent the same DMG image to my friend on his Mac and he can open it, so it is on my side. I also have noticed my pen drive is not showing up on the desktop, but shows in disk utility. I have noticed these problems since I cloned and replaced my HD. I have also added a 50 GB partition to Boot Camp, if this should matter. Any idea??

repaired permissions and rebooted.
all ok now

Does Time Machine handle open DMG images?

System config:
- MacBook Pro w/10.6.8
- Time Machine backing up to external Firewire-connected 1TB drive.
To help protect some sensitive files, I have an encrypted and password-protected disk image on my MacBook in which I keep various files (mostly Word documents) containing private information. The DMG is named private.dmg, and is normally mounted r/w on my desktop so I can access the files and folders stored in its volume as required. (I mount it manually after logging on). Throughout the day, I may create new files or edit existing files that are stored in the private volume, which in turn is contained within the private.dmg file.
Recently, I needed to go back in time and recover an earlier version of one of the confidential files. Time Machine couldn't find the file with the date that that I needed (3 days ago). It appears that the files in the private volume are not getting backed up reliably to my external drive hourly/daily/weekly as per the Time Machine regimen. I would have expected the private.dmg file to get backed up by TM if/when any changes have been made to the files stored in its contained volume, but that seems not to be the case. If I enter Time Machine and go back in time, I find old versions of the private.dmg file as expected, but if I mount an older version and examine the contents, I don't see corresponding old versions of the files within.
Are there known limitations with this configuration? I know that TM can have problems with dealing with some open files, notably the Entourage database file. Perhaps TM fails to handle an open dmg image? Since the dmg file is essentially open all day (having been mounted), is it plausible that TM never backs it up Is there any way that I can ensure that Time Machine properly backs up the sensitive files in the mounted volume?
Thanks.

@ Kiraly,
Thanks, I'm aware of that. I have been pursuing my TM archives by directly accessing the file structure on the TM volume (within the Backups.backupdb folder), locating the .dmg file with appropriate date, mounting it, and then looking on the mounted volume for the file I need to recover. (that's a lot faster than restoring each private.dmg file from within the TM application.
It appears to me that TM is not properly saving the state of the open .dmg file when it does its hourly backup. Perhaps it doesn't see changes made to files within the volume. Perhaps it just wasn't designed to handle .dmg files that OS X has open for R/W access.
I should mention that my dmg volume is a sparse image. I wonder if that complexity is sufficient to mess up TM.

CS4 on Mac OSX 10.6

Hi Steve
Finally solved the issue. It was down to InDesign. I had to completely uninstall InDesign and its preferences, then reinstall from disc. The installation had errors so after a restart and reinstallation, downloading updates etc. it now works!! Not sure what is was actually down to though.

I can't migrate from a time machine Back up. I select my TC and it says "some backups can't be opened." My HD failed and I'm Trying to get everything back... Can anyone make a suggestion?

I can't migrate from a time machine Back up. I select my TC and it says "some backups can't be opened. Make sure that all of your network devices are connected and turned on.

My HD failed and i installed a new one... I'm Trying to get everything back... Can anyone make a suggestion?

Read the section E about restore issues.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
But you should be able to mount the sparsebundle and backup the major items if they are not damaged. You might also do a disk verify to see if the corruption can be repaired.
Have a look here also for restore of selected items.

OSX cant open *some* .dmg and .avi files, other open fine

Hi,
Ive encountered a problem with opening files on my new iMac.
The problem is some .DMG files and .AVI files are not able to be opened, which have previously been fine. Where as some where fine, and still are. The problem files have white icons and are grey'ed out. They cannot be renamed, deleted and moved. These files have previously been fine, I downloaded them, installed or watched them, then stored them on my portable hard drive. They have just suddenly became un-usable.
Its weird how 90% of the AVI and DMG files I have open fine, but some have just suddenly became un-usable. If I go to delete the files, it states they are being used by another application. If I go to change the default opening program from VLC to Quick Time it states I don't have the correct privileges.
Whats going on here?

Yeah I've done that many times. Doesn't seem to make a difference. Don't know what to do now. The problem files seem to be files that I have transferred to the portable hdd since I've had my iMac.
The drive is formatted in NTFS but I followed a tutorial on how to get read and write access. Could it be that osx can't write the files to the drive correctly? I'm not sure. It's weird because the files work perfect for a day or two after copying, but then become un-usable.

Fail to open image to photoshop in camera raw

after i make all the adjustment in camera raw, when I chick "open image" it fails to open in photoshop.any solution?

BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
