System problems after 10.4.5

After attempting the update in the software updater (which I will never do again), it failed to update. I downoladed the delta updater and ran it no problems, rebooted, and now spotlight won't work. It comes up but no matter what I type in there are no results. I attempted to repair permissions, but disk utility comes up and keeps searching for volumes, and stays that way, I made an attempt at an archived install of 10.4.0 and then upgrading to 10.4.5 again, but the installer on the DVD could not prepare my hard drive, or whatever the first step is after verifying the DVD. Also, sytem profiler freezes up when I attempt to view my hard drive info.
Mac mini   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

Hi Steve, let me get this right, you were trying to perform a Software Update from 10.4.x to the latest 10.4.5 and the update failed?
Did you perform the necessary steps below?
-Repair Disk Permission before and after the update
-Remove all external devices, unplug them and leave only the keyboard/mouse and internet connection before the update
You can try downloading the Combo Update, perform the above first and apply the update, and see if that works
Good luck and cheers!

  • Myself Source system problem after System Copy

    Hi All,
    We recently did a system copy (Production -> Dev). After the logical system rename is done, the myself source system is showing up as a External SAP system, in source system tree under SAP instead of BI.  I'm not able to restore/activate it.  Any inputs on this problem is appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sree

    Problem was with inconsistency in the RSBASIDOC table. Solved by deleting invalid entry and running BDLS again for this specific table.

  • System problems after upgrade

    now I really cannot understand this upgrade to 5.0.1.. my computer worked just great with the 4.9 version and now I had several iTunes-crashes, problems with the internet connection WLAN(which suddenly occurred after the update) and even a failed installation of the sony ericsson k750 "pc suite" software due to an "unsolved problem" in QT7.
    I am really dissapointed, this software is just not ready for public use and my whole system has started to act weird. if someone can help please do so!

    hi bo2400!
    My notebooks connect to the internet through a Dlink -614+ router. The result was a very slow internet connection and crashes.
    okay, i know that for at least some D-link routers, D-link now has instructions at their website on how to get them to work properly with itunes 5.0.x. there's a link through to the D-link website in here (not to your particular model, i believe, but there should be information for your one somewhere on the site):

    for the QT 7 conflict ... it definitely doesn't sound like the problem i've been worrying about. unfortunately, you're the first report (that i can recall) of that particular problem here in "Installation & Upgrades".
    it might be worth checking/posting in the "Quicktime for Windows" forum in case there's been some troubleshooting done on this over there. (not trying to get rid of you ... just trying to get you on the right radar screens.)
    it can help give context to any post over there if you provide a reference link back to this thread. there's instructions on how to do that given in here:

  • System problems after Security Update 2007-007 install

    Hello all,
    I am having problems with my computer after installing the 2007-007 security update. Specifically, the keyboard and mouse become non-functional at random intervals. The system has not frozen up, though, as items on the screen continue to update. Each time this has happened, I have had to ssh into the machine from another one and reboot. I am on a dual G4 Powermac, 867 MHz with 2 GB of RAM running OS X 10.4.10. Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing this?

    Hard to say. Have a bootable backup of your installation before the update? Did you repair permissions and repair the disk before installing? How soon after rebooting does the problem come back? Have you checked the console and system logs?

  • Qosmio G30 - system problem after recovery procedure

    I have Qosmio G30 - 148 which have Windows XP MCE, when trying to download some programs system crashed and make automatic restart.
    I then used a RECOVERY CD to recover my all system and followed the instructions on the CD but when finished and rebooting the system a famous blue screen displayed tell me there's a problem in my system and windows must be restarted.
    When reboot in safe mode there is a message tell me that the system is not fully installed. Please run setup again.
    Could any body help me in that problem because it's a strange problem?
    Note: I tried to install Windows XP from external CD but system did not know the hard disk.

    Hi Ahmed
    I would try to provide some useful hints;
    First of all you can install the XP Pro on the Qosmio G30 this is no problem.
    I assume you couldnt install the XP on the G30 because your have not installed the RAID driver firstly. As far as I know the XP would not recognize the HDD without the RAID driver.
    The RAID driver installation is not very difficult. During the XP Setup procedure you have to press the F6 to include the driver from the external USB FDD drive.
    If you dont have a USB diskette drive, then you could use a nLite to create a new XP CD with the RAID driver.
    However despite everything Im not sure if this will help.
    There could be really a hardware issue with your G30.

  • Source System Problem after system refresh in RSA1 trx

    Hi,
    We have R/3 4.7 Test source system created in our SCM 2007 Test System. The source system check was OK.
    The R3 Test system was refreshed with Production data few days back and now my source system is not working. When i perform Source System check it says:
    BI unknown in source system
    BI IDoc type ZSSB006 is not the same as source system IDoc type
    I performed following steps in R3 Test system after its system refresh:
    1. Created logcal system and created RFC.
    2. Created port in trx we21.
    3. Created partner profile in trx we20.
    4. For the outbound parameter RSSEND, I had to create idoc type that should be same as in my SCM system i.e. ZSSB006.
    5. Created idoc type using trx we30 as a copy of RSSEND and added entry in table EDIMSG. Now, i could also create outbound parameter RSSEND with idoc type ZSSB006.
    After performing the above steps i also replicated the datasources for the R3 Test source system, but its still showing above error.
    I also checked the RSBASIDOC table in SCM test system. It has correct entry for my source system. But there is no such entry in RSBASIDOC table in the R3 test system.
    Someone pls help me.

    Hi Chintan,
    Can you please check IDOC in your Target system. It should be the same type. Better you do the Partner profile steps.
    Also please check have correctly created the idoc in Inbound or Outbound.
    Consider the case like if its exist in BW as Out bound then its connected to Inbound IDOC of R/3 and vice a versa.
    Please elaborate your refresh activites. Normally IDOC setting never get changed in you refresh activites.
    Just check your BW system patch level and search for Notes.
    Regards,

  • System problems after installing iphone & itunes

    I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed a weird problem with their computers after installing the iphone & itunes.
    Up untill i got the iphone, my computer was working fine. Now about every 15 - 30 mins, i get a few seconds of static sound from my speakers, and my monitor flashes in a way i can only describe as static on a tv screen.
    i've been trying to figure out what the problem is, and thought it was just my copy of windows xp, then i noticed that every so often, my iphone will buzz either right before or right after the static hits my computer. I've also seen the same thing on another computer running windows vista, so at this point, i don't think it's the computer, and the issue never occured before installing the iphone.
    Can anyone help me troubleshoot what is causing this, (or at the very least stop the static sound from the speakers so that it does not interfere with my music).
    Any help would be appriciated, this is currently the biggest problem i have with the iphone.
    thanks,
    r.

    Hi - yep, it's your phone causing the problem. But this isn't unique to iPhones, many (most?) cell phones will create this problem when placed near certain other electronic devices. I haven't been able to put my cell phone on my nightstand for years because it makes the radio/alarm clock buzz.
    I don't happen to have problems with my iPhone near my computer screen or speakers, but it makes my alarm clocks and my cordless home telephones buzz like you described.
    I believe the cell phone is essentially connecting to the mother ship to establish a signal! Like I said, this isn't unique to the iPhone. Just move it away from your screen/speakers and you'll have fixed your problem

  • System problems after applying patches

    Hi all,
    I was patching our netweaver 2004s system and now I am not able to use any transaction anymore.
    First I updated the Abapkernel and the SPAM itself. Then I started applying the Abap support packages. I had no problem applying patch level 7 and 8. When I imported patchlevel 9, the system did not respond anymore. Every time I tried to execute a transaction I got a shortdump.
    Do you have any idea what could be the problem?
    We restored the system and now I got a similar error already when updating SPAM.

    After Int Install OS10.5.8 on PowerPC G4 having major system problems (created user to verify) CS4 apps go non responsive

    Ok no difference, I don't get any drive errors that seem significant or numerous, sometimes I don't get any at all, the disk always verifies and I haven't had to run a repair on it yet. I've gotton one or two drive errors, I'll save them next time I run either DU or DW.... however with permissions, there are a lot and they all fix (except: see below: Last 3: ACL errors are always there) but as I keep having to do force quits and system re boots they keep coming back; posted them below IDK if this will help you to help me, LOL... but figured it couldn't hurt, the ones below are re-occuring I know i've seen them b4. . .  Don't know if this makes a difference but on initial install I had several font conflicts w/system fonts, I renamed suitcases and that error message hasn't come back . . . but do you think this could be a font issue . . . I have like 12,000 fonts of which a couple hundred are ususally always active . . . IDK it doesn't make sense to me it would be, but you never know... just a shot in the dark
    I also saved my last PS crash report and it was like 100 Pages long, I've never seen one that long, I make a pdf of it and post link to my idisk, if its something that you can interpet.

  • Exchange profile parameter problem after system copy of XI server

    I'm getting problem after the system copy of XI server. Following is the details. pls help to fix this one:
    XQA is the system copy of XDV server. XQA is installed on rx2n1v1 server and XDV is installed on dbcixdv server. Following is weblink of XQA and XDV.
    XQA: http://rx2n1v1:57400
    XDV: http://dbcixdv:57000
    After the system copy of XQA, i changed all xdv related parameters (hostname/port) in visual admin and configtool of XQA server.
    Now when i run sxmb_ifr tcode in XQA, it should open the link of XQA server ( http://rx2n1v1:57400). But it open the link of XDV server (http://dbcixdv:57000).
    The cause of this problem is the xdv parameter entires (hostname/portnumber of xdv) in exchange profile of  XQA server (http://rx2n1v1:57400/exchangeProfile).
    Now if i change hostname/portnumber of xdv in XQA server (http://rx2n1v1:57400/exchangeProfile), it also make the same change in XDV server  (http://dbcixdv:57000/exchangeProfile).
    Both XQA and XDV are in differnet hardware server. I don't understand why making changes of exchangeprofile in XQA also changed the value of exchangeprofile in XDV.
    Hope it clarify.
    Pls give the solution of this problem.

  • Multiple Samsung Stratosphere problems after FF1 update

    There have been multiple posts on various issues users have found after the recent Stratopshere FF1 update.  Some were replys to older posts and some only touched on a single issue.  I wanted to consolodate into one thread, and hopefully get teh attention of Verizon to maybe reply here.
    For reference, a lot has been discuss here --> https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/874446
    Summary:  Verizon and Samsung have finally updated the Stratosphere almost 1 year after release.  This updated the phone from Android 2.3.5 to Android 2.3.6.  Going by filename, this is known as the FF1 update.   This update went live at the end of August 2012, and most users were upgraded before mid September 2012.
    There were some noticable changes in this update:
    -Lock screen has changed.  The puzzle piece and glass lock options have been removed.  New options have been added, such as facial recognition unlock.
    -Call answering screen has changed, introducing the option to ignore call with a message.
    -Camera now has digital zoom ability.
    -Ability to uninstall the 2 games the phone comes with (Need for Speed and Lets Golf)
    -Phone icon has changed ever so slightly
    -Wifi icon now included up and down arrows to indicate data is being sent or recieved
    -Wallpaper no longer "stretches" over multiple screens - ie, it no longer scrolls as you move from screen to screen
    -The visual voicemail app has been improved (I have personally not used this feature)
    -Callback number is now supported in text / picture messages
    -Android core OS updated from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6 (both versions are still Gingerbread)
    -Update to how the device deals with the end of scrolling.  It used to rubber-band bounce back, now it will just give a green bar and expand the bar as you scroll.  (I cannot fault Samsung for this change as this was at teh core of an Apple lawsuit and has been changed in newer versions of Android.)
    -(I am sure there are more.  please list any others you may have noticed)
    I have found some problems, and others have confirmed that this is (at least) somewhat widespread:
    -The biggest problem is with wifi connectivity.  Upon an initial connection to wifi, everything works great.  After somewhere between 15minutes and 2 hours, problems start happening.  Its as if the wifi keeps hanging or reconnecting.  Download speeds (tested with the SpeedTest.com app) slow to about one third of normal.  Apps like Facebook that require a constant connection will just time out.
    -It appears the signal strength for 3g and 4g connections is lower.  There are places where I used to get a 4g connection, and now I only get 3g.  Some palces I fall back to just 2g digital.
    Another minor issue i found was with text messages.  When you reply to a message, it no longer automatically focuses the text in the input box.  You have to first click into the box to start typing.  Not a huge deal, but one more step to take over and over.  Minor annoyence.
    At my house, I struggle to get a 3g or 4g signal.  I depend on wifi for my data connection.  So with the wifi connection problem introduced by teh FF1 update, my phone is somewhat useless to me now while at home.  Here are teh troubleshooting steps I have been through so far to attempt to fix the wifi problem:
    -Complete factory reset on my phone.  (did not help)
    -Pull battery and SIM card out of phone for 15 minutes.  (did not help)
    -Went to a Verizon store.  The guy at the store was helpful, and said he also had a Stratosphere and was getting the same wifi problems after the update.  He said all he could do was to send me out a replacement phone. I got the replacement phone, and it had the same problems.
    -I read in multiple palces that Android 2.3.6 has a bug within wifi and DHCP.  Apparently if you have a DHCP lease set to "forever", the phone will keep requesting a new address.  Setting the DHCP server on the router to something like 2 weeks, or using a static IP is supposed to solve this.  I have a NetGear N900 router, and I can not change teh DHCP lease time.  It appears, however, that my router is not sending out "forever" leases.  But just to make sure, I gave my phone a static IP.  (None of these steps made any difference).
    The only thing that temporarily fixes the problem is a reboot of the phone.  This will again give you anywhere from 15min to 2 hours of good wifi use before problems start happening.
    I have now had this update for over a week, and on 2 phones.  I still can't maintain a wifi connection for much longer than 15 minutes without problems starting up.
    I am asking Verizon or Samsung to at least confirm this issue if possible.  Maybe there are newer revs of the Stratopshere hardware that don't have this problem.  Or there is something unique about my (and apparently others) situation.  But it seems like Verizon's current stance is to offer a repalcement phone (as currently all Stratospheres are within their 1 year manufacture warranty as the phone has not been ouy for quite 1 year yet).
    I am asking for a workaround for this problem, or a true fix adressed by a new software update, or at least allow us to roll back to the original Andorid 2.3.5 software.
    I have had my original Stratosphere for almost a year with no wifi problems - then get the FF1 update and have had nothing but problems on 2 different phones.
    Thank you for your time.

    Thanks for starting a comprehensive thread on problems with this update. I want to add one more.
    I have Bluetooth in my car (a 2004 model), and previously the phone has connected to it practically instantly when I start the car. Since the update, I have never been able to connect the phone to the car by Bluetooth. Several times the phone has made a standard notification sound at the moment it should be connecting to Bluetooth, though no notification appears. I have no idea what that could mean.The car's Bluetooth shows up as paired in the list of devices in Settings > Wireless & networks > Bluetooth settings. I haven't seen this widely reported as an update issue, but perhaps some others have experienced it too.
    UPDATE: I finally did some testing, and found that the notification was to signal the extremely brief appearance of a dialog indicating that the car's Bluetooth was requesting a connection. Accepting that request let the phone connect with the car, and calls went to the car's sound system as they should. When I turned the car off and back on (just the electrical system; not wasting any gas on this!), the connection was established immediately, so apparently the acceptance only had to be done once. Nevertheless, it did have to be done, and the dialog notification disappears within seconds. I believe it would have been possible to go into Bluetooth settings and accept the connection request there if I missed the notification; but not seeing the notification, I might not know to do this.
    One further observation: When I turned the phone's Bluetooth off and back on after a connection had been established, leaving the car on the whole time, the two did not reconnect. I believe that may be different from before the update, but I'm not really sure.
