Strange disc error message- OS 10.4.3 upgrade attempt

In attempting to upgrade from OS10.2.8 to 10.4.3, I get the following error message when running the Disc Utility- Repair Disc from the installation CD-ROM: "Incorrect number of thread records" The disc repair fails and so does the OS installation. This error did not show up when I ran Disc Utility from my original OS Installation Disc.
I have an aftermarket RAM chip installed. Is that the problem? If not, any ideas?

Actually I have just checked my problem and as soon as I start Disc Utility I get a message: ' Disc Utility started, but a background process needed in disc utility didnt start properly' so I may have to ask a Disc Utility question.

  • Strange i8042 error messages

    I get the following strange i8042 error messages appearing whenever I suspend my machine:
    i8042: Can't reactivate KBD port
    PM: Device i8042 failed to resume: error -19
    However, the system seems to work fine. A google search suggested adding the kernel parameters: i8042.reset and i8042.nomux to my kernel boot line, which I have done, but this did not work.
    System is an Intel ATOM 330 AsRock motherboard with a Logitech MK300 wireless mouse and keyboad combo.
    Any ideas appreciated.

    I'd say you can just ignore it. i8042 is a builtin (rather than a module) which is part of PS/2 keyboard support.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Windows XP installation "Disc error" message

    I am trying to install Windows XP Pro w/SP2 on my Macbook Pro, running 10.5.6. After partitioning my disc through Boot Camp, I restart with my Windows disc and reach the screen where I have to select the correct partition. After selecting partition 3, I reach a black screen that says, "Disc error. Press any key to restart." None of the keys respond, and I'm forced to hold down the power key. When I try and reboot off the XP disc, the same error message appears. Apple tech support was of no help. Anyone???

    Hey there,
    Check out this page below. It may have to do with how and where you are formatting the the Windows partition. Hope this helps.

  • Strange MIDI error message. Please Help

    I keep getting a strange message when I load logic: “Logic Pro has detected a possible conflict between one or more third party MIDI or audio drivers. Be sure to install the latest drivers for all audio and MIDI equipment connected to your computer, and remove any older or unused drivers”. After a few attempts to get the message to go away, Logic finally loaded. Does anyone have any idea what this is? I’ve searched the forums and can’t seem to find any info. Thanks.

    Did you recently upgrade to Logic Pro 7.2?
    If so, then the reason for the error message is that the latest MIDI and audio drivers of your plug-ins need to be updated before you upgrade Logic.
    Try this... Under the file menu at the top left corner, go to Logic Pro, then down to preferences, and then Start Logic AU manager. You will then get a dialogue box that asks if it is OK to quit the current program and start the AU manager. Click the start AU manager. A screen then pops up showing all of the plug-ins of your system. Logic scans them to validate them. Those in which there is a problem (crashing, etc), indicates likely that the drivers for those AU units need to be updated.
    Once all of them pass validation, then the error message should go away.
    This information was gleaned from one of the tutorials that I watched on VTC.com, the Logic Pro section, and on Martin Sitter' tutorials on MacProvideo.com. I highly recommend the tutorials... they are excellent.
    Hope the above helps.

  • Removing disc error message

    An error message keeps coming up when I insert a disk:   "the disk was not properly ejected...."
    The disc was properly ejected!!! But the message keeps popping up and interferes with work and saving to disc.
    How can I remove or prevent this message from continuing to appear"
    Thanks for your help.

    Nirmal,
    Can you be more specific about what is happening and what you
    want to happen? UIComponents have built-in behavior to show a red
    border and display an error tooltip on a mouse rollOver when
    errorString is set to a non-empty string. I don't fully understand
    when you want the error tooltip to disappear. You can control the
    appearance/behavior of the error tooltip by adding a .errorTooltip
    style declaration (look at defaults.css for the defaults). One
    thing you can customize is the display duration of the error tip.
    If you want to customize the behavior of your component when the
    errorString is set, then you can subclass your component and
    override the errorString setter.

  • Strange SFTP error message

    I can no longer connect using SFTP on one of my sites in Dreamweaver CS6 and I get this error message:
    Failed to Read the contents of XML Resource:
    IDD_SSH_KEY_CHANGE_DIALOG
    The password and paths  are correct and I am able to connect using other SFTP clients such as Cyberduck. I've deleted the site several times and recreated in Dreamweaver, but the error message remains the same.
    Somebody please point me in the right direction.
    Thanks.

    Yes!!! Step 12 worked. (Renaming the Configuration folder.) Thank you so much, you're a star.
    Anyone else trying this on Lion or Mountain Lion should note that the user Library that contains this folder is not visible by default:
    /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS6/[language]/Configuration
    You have to go into Terminal to make it visible, see the tutorial here:
    http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/qt/Os-X-Lion-Is-Hiding-Your-Library-Folder.htm
    Also note: there's another Configuration folder within the Dreamweaver Application itself: Macintosh HD/Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver/Configuration, however renaming is no help at all - it makes Dreamweaver crash!

  • Unable to read or write to disc error message

    Just received Ipod 5G 30G as a gift. I have had no problem transferring music, and have converted several tv shows to itunes using tivo software. When I try to transfer a show to ipod, it gets about 3/4 of the way finished and then gives me the cannot write or read to disc error. Have tried reloading everything, different USB ports and looking for conflicting software. No luck. Very frustrating. Can anyone please help make Christmas a little better....

  • Strange Server Error Message

    I have a message that I tried to send to a very large number of people. The error message I receive says it cannot send with this server and displays the list of email address to which I attempted to send it. Because all of the emails are displayed the entire error message doesnt fit on the screen--I can't click any of the options (such as cancel) on the bottom of the error.... So the email is just haunting me...
    I took a screen shot, but cannot post it here. If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated! Here is the screenshot as uploaded to sendspace: http://www.sendspace.com/file/cgblkz
    Thanks,
    Tegan

    you will probably have to force quit Mail. Apple Menu > Force Quit... or CMDOptionEsc.
    as for why the server wont send the mail, perhaps because there are so many addresses.
