Start Up Manager not showing Volume names?

I have a G4 DA 800 with 10.5.8 on the main IDE and two partitions , one for OS 9 and one for 10.3.9 Volumes on a FW 400 Drive.
Everything runs pretty well except when I've been using Start Up Manager (Option Boot) the names of the Volumes are not there. There's only an X or the Finder for OS 9 and for the Volume names there is only a small cursor line.
Is there a way to get the Volume names to appear again in Start Up Manager?
Thank you!

Hi, Mike -
In Startup Manager the volume names are read before any OS is loaded, of course, so the cause should not be OS-specific.
Try resetting the PRAM on the affected machine.
Do the proper names appear on the desktop when the machine is booted to OS 9?
If the names are longer than 31 characters, then they could be misread. OSX has a software solution to allow longer filenames, but OS 9 and the machine's hardware modes do not. There might also be an issue with non-text characters (other than a space, comma, or period) interfereing.
If all else is good, try renaming the volumes while the machine is booted to OS 9 - there may be a difference in OS 9 vs. OSX regarding how the names are stored, hence accessed by the machine while in hardware mode.

    I am also having problems with a site I am building. No matter what websafe font I use it displays as New Times Roman in FireFox. The correct fonts show in both IE9 and Chrome.
    In addition, text shifts in FireFox. I have to position other text objects farther and farther apart as I go down the page or they start to overlap. Nav buttons and other images also have to be positioned in the wrong place for them to be in the correct place when the page is opened in FireFox. FireFox should display pages correctly by default. I can't expect th average user to have to tweek his/her settings to display my site.
    I have been recommending FireFox on my website as the best browser. I might have to change that and abandon FireFox myself.

  • After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

    I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
    I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
    Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
    My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
    I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
    Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
    Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
    Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

  • I have an I phone 4s and I have many contacts in my phone.  However, whne my phone rings or I receive a text, the phone does not show the name of the contact person only the phone number.  I have checked every setting I can think of ?

    I have an I phone 4s and I have many contacts in my phone.  However, when my phone rings or I receive a message.  The phone does not show the name of the caller.  It only shows the phone number that is calling.  I am sure this is a setting problem, but I have checked every setting I can think of.  Any suggestions??

    If you are a Verizon user try this:
    Open the phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
    When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
    Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating "Settings updated."
    Double tap the Home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom.  Locate the Phone, Message, and Contacts apps, swiping if necessary, and press and hold until they jiggle then press the red minus sign to stop them.
    Wait a 3-5 minutes.
    Try your phone again and see if it's fixed.

  • Not showing Caller Name on E51

    I have upgrade software but after that my phone not showing caller name on the screen.Before upgrading my phone was shwoing caller name when I received call. my all phone numbers are on SIM , can some body let me know how this will work or its setting.

    The problem may be, that you have all your contacts on the SIM card and on the phone as well. Is that possible?
    Duplicate matches for a specific phone number lead to not showing a phone number at all...
    By clicking the "Kudos!" or the "Solution?" button on the right you can say "Thank You" and you´ll show the author and others that the post is useful.

  • E52 not showing contacts name in inbox

    Hi,
    iam facing this problem of my e52 not showing contacts names in inbox.
    Some of the contacts name are shown, those which was originally in my phone memory.
    because i do a lot of trading, i constantly adds new numbers to my contacts from the sms they sent. But the main problem is here is even after i added their contact giving them names, the names doesnt show up in inbox, its still just numbers.
    desperately need help for this. how can a business phone have this kind of problem?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This happens to me too when I store the number under two names, or the synchronization creates double entries, for example:
    Two names:
    1234    Anna    
    1234    Bea
    Double entries
    1234    Anna
    1234    Anna
    When the text message comes in, there's no name. But you can send a message either to Anna or Bea and the message outbox shows the proper name.
    The solution is to delete one entry or merge the duplicate contacts.
    Hope this helps.

  • On OS 5, the contacts with international format do not show the names when they call me. any idea why?

    I have updated my Iphone 4 software to OS5, and since then the names of the people who call me stopped to appear and only their number is showing. after checking, i found out that the contatcs whom local phone number is saved in an international format are affected by this problem. if i save them without the country code, then their names appear.
    Also, some non local numbers that are saved in the format of 00966--------- instead of +966 ------- are also not showing the name of my contact when they call me.
    any idea about this knowing that the older OS version didn't have an issue with this?
    Thanks

    This is the same problem I have.  I thought it was my phone only, but now I realize it is a common thing.  I hope they release a fix to this, as they did in 2007 & 2007 when 3G was released.  Will be waiting and good luck to us all.

  • Bpel console not showing domain name

    Hi
    i have installed a new jdev 10.1.3.1 and also have 10.1.2. first version is working fine examples but bpel console is not showing domain name in 10.1.2.
    pls anyone can tell me what may be the problem.Is it bcoz of two version in same machine.?? Its urgent help out............

    this is understandable - at per default we use oracle lite - which only allows ONE installation on a windows system ..
    to run both in paralell you have to install a db and create the 2 schemas (10.1.2.0.2 and 10.1.3.1) - I posted a blog note on this ..

  • Help. I accidentally formatted by the device name not the volume name when trying fresh install osx Mountain lion.

    I was trying to do a fresh instal of Mountain Lion. By fresh I mean clean.
    Firstly, my iMac disc drive isn't really working to well, so I have Mountain Lion on a usb.
    I started up and held the option key.
    Entered into disc utility mode, and started doing everything correct.
    Then near at the end I when i'm required to select a start up disc it doesnt show anything... Help?
    I checked around online and saw this tutorially and notice I had done something different.
    http://macs.about.com/od/MountainLion/ss/How-To-Perform-A-Clean-Install-Of-Os-X- Mountain-Lion-On-A-Startup-Drive.htm
    on page 2. where it says
    When Disk Utility opens, select your Mac's startup volume from the list of devices. If you never changed its name, the startup volume will be listed as Macintosh HD. Be sure to select the volume name and not the device name, which will usually be the name of the physical drive, for instance, "500 GB WDC WD5."
    I think I may have selected the device name. Is this the cause of my problem?
    Can I fix this ? Please help?

    Ok, I realized that won't work, I don't think, because you can't enable it on your Mac.
    However, if you have another Mac, you can use Firewire Target Disk Mode to install. Boot your Mac while holding down the T key. You will see a FireWire symbol on the screen. Then, connect the two with a Firewire cable. Your Mac hard drive will show up on the other. Try to install onto that.
    This may not work, depending on the other Mac. If it is similar to yours, it should.
    I'm not sure if you can do it the other way. If you put the DVD into the other Mac and boot it into Target Disk Mode, then boot yours holding down the option key, you may be able to select the DVD on the other Mac as the startup.

  • Network Location not showing domain name in Server 2012 R2 after demoting 2003 PDC

    The single active NIC in my new Server 2012 R2 no longer shows the Network Location of "DOMAIN.LOCAL" like it did before I demoted the only Server 2003 domain controller. The NIC now shows "NETWORK" as the Network Location.
    The registry still shows a Profile with the correct PROFILENAME in
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles
    but that name does not show up in the Network List Manager Policies inside Local Security Policy.
    The 2012 R2 Srv has all of the FSMO roles, Client PC's can connect to the domain but will not get new map drives from a script, they must be created manually. My Quickbooks Enterprise clients cannot see the QB Server Manager on this server and I think it
    is related to this issue because of firewall restrictions.
    The Windows Firewall pointed me in this direction because the "Private Networks" is connected to my NIC named "Network" but the Firewall "Domain Networks" is reported as "Not connected."
    Any Help is appreciated,

    Hi,
    Based on my research,
    Network Location Awareness (NLA) service expects to be able to enumerate the
    domain’s forest name to choose the right network profile for the connection. The service does this by calling
    DsGetDcName on the forest root name and issuing an LDAP query on UDP port 389 to a root Domain Controller.
    If something hinders the DNS name resolution or the connection attempt to the DC, NLA is not able to set the appropriate network profile on the connection.
    Therefore, I suggest you check the DNS settings on DCs and other domain-joined machines, which should point to the existing DC as preferred DNS server, and secondary DC as alternate DNS server, IP address of demoted DC should be
    removed. In addition, please do not use loopback IP address.
    Here are some articles below I suggest you refer to:
    Network Location Awareness (NLA) and how it relates to Windows Firewall Profiles

  • Users added to Profile Manager not showing up in everyone group

    So profile manager was working quite well until I made a change to the workgroup group.
    I removed the password policy from the workgroup group and added a new group for the password policy so we could essentially still manage non user assigned iOS devices.
    Now when I add a new user to the workgroup group on the server I have them login to the mydevices site so we can enroll the device and they can login but are immediately presented with:
    "You do not have permission to access the page you were looking for. Contact your system administrator."
    In troubleshooting the issue I noticed that new users being added are not showing up the in the everyone group which is preventing the users from having proper access. Prior to all this I could add a user and they would show up in everyone as intended.
    Any thoughts?

    I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but I have a user in Server.app that is not showing up in Users group. She is listed in her sub-group, but I cannot add devices to her account. When I click on the arrow next to her name in the sub-group, it takes me to the Users list to the top user.
    Any thoughts?

  • Print management not showing up under administrative tools

    hello!
    for some reason even though i have all the proper roles etc installed print management is not showing up under admin tools. i have manually added the snap in to mmc console and saved that to a location for easy access, but the members on my team would like
    to have it available to them under admin tools, does anyone know a) why it does not show up or b) how to add my saved mmc snap in so it shows up under admin tools?
    thanks in advance.
    -chaz

    Very strange.  I just added it to a Windows Server 2012 R2 server and it shows up in Tools.
    Microsoft tools, into the Tools menu on Server Manager, you just need to put an entry in the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools directory.  You can even rearrange things, create sub-directories with different sets
    of tools, ACL the entries, etc.

  • Devices in profile manager not showing

    I have profile manager set up and I have tried to enroll the device, but it does not show in the devices panel.  I want to use profile manager to manage the devices, not so much the users.  These macs are on a cart and they are bound to active directory and many students login to them on any given day.  I also set up a default user so that they all get the same look and cannot change any settings.  I am stumped.  I was trying to  find a log to look at but not sure where to start to trouble shoot.  Suggestions would be appreciated  I am running os x 10.7.4 lion server.

  • IMessage not showing contact names

    I just recently downloaded and installed OS X Mavericks on my 2011 iMac and trying to get up and running with the new iMessage app. But there are two major bugs I can figure out how to fix if anyone can help me fix these problems or comment if your having the same issues that would be a big help.
    1: When receiving a message from someone in my contacts list/address book, their names do not apper next to the message, but rather only their phone numbers. I have went thought the view options and selected show contacts name and also tried adding a name to the existing number with no results. Does anyone know how to fix this bug?
    2: The lag time between SMS/iphone messages and the time it takes to show up in iMessage on my mac is rather long. There is about a 3 minute delay before the text message conversation shows up from my phone to computer. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Re 2).
    This is a bit of a "known Issue" with no current fix.
    The issue is related to the fact a iOS device seems to get the "first " push of the iMessage and that the Mac only gets "Sync" push which seems to be slower (and for some bizarre reason not always in order)
    Re 1) I have seen this reported but maybe not as clearly as your post.
    No-one seemed to make it clear the Contacts were in the Address Book (Contacts app) and that it seemed to be ignoring the Names for just the Numbers.
    Obviously you can use the View Menu > Messages > Show Pictures and Name (or Show Names)
    As you say this should link the ID or iPhone Number being used in the iMessages to the "Real Name" in the Address Card for that person.
    The options are:-
    A) You are receiving an iMessage from an iPhone Number but the link to the Address Card is not working.
    If you make sure you are sending to an Apple ID what do you see ? (Apple ID or Real Name or in fact the iPhone number again)
    This may be because you have lost the ability to "read" the saved data for the Contacts app.
    B) Check the Contacts app and see if it is Syncing properly with any iOS device (i.e that all items have the Name as well as an iPhone number in the Address Card.)
