To install Livetype with FCP upgrade...

I have live type data from a previous install of Final Cut Pro 4.5.
now i'm upgrading to FCP Studio and Live type is bundled. there's 12 Gigs of data! should I uninstall the old data from the Library/Application Support/Live Type folder first (theres 8 G of data in there! my hard drive might choke!

The Hardware test seems a bit scary.... don't know what the error message means, but you don't have enough graphics card for sure.
To run it all you need at least one of these cards:
ATI Radeon 9800, 9700 Pro, 9600 XT, or 9600 Pro
ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 or 9600
NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, 6600 LE, FX Go5200, or FX 5200 Ultra
For 16- and 32-bit rendering: a graphics card with at least 128MB of VRAM
Further, if it were me, I'd perform and erase and install of Tiger, update it, then install the studio and run software update again. Of course this will erase your startup disk, so be sure to backup what you want to keep first.
The motherboard error though leads me to think that it's probably time to upgrade your Mac all together. Might have an authorized repair center look at it, but I'm seeing dual G5's selling on ebay for less than what a logic board and graphics card would probably cost for your G4.... sorry to be the bearer of bad news sort of, but hey, a faster Mac with more RAM would make your life a lot better with FCS.
I'd want at least a dual G5... a new quad machine would really make things sing... if you're a pro, surely by now you've amortized out that G4, right?
I also think the minimum RAM you should be running is 4 gigs. FCS 2 is one demanding set of apps... Not to say you can't get your machine to run it, you should be able to, but if you're a working pro, it's time to upgrade it all I think.

RAC Install fails with "OCR upgrade failed with (-1073741819) on 10.2.0

I am trying to install RAC 10.2.0 with two Server 2003 R2 nodes connected to a fiber channel SAN. I have set up the shared storage, created the extended partitions, and setup the unformatted no drive letter volumes. Both servers see the unformatted volumes (and no others do). The preinstallation checks work fine and the installations works fine until the first configuration assistant runs. That would be the "Oracle Clusterware Configuration Assistant". It tries to run crssetup.config.bat and fails on step 3 (configuring OCR Repository) with
ocr upgrade failed with (-1073741819)
If I uninstall clusterware and try again it will not show the OCR and Voting disks as available disks until I delete the volumes and partitions and recreate them. I have run the precheck batch files and they show everything as good as well. When I define the OCR and Voting drives in the clusterware setup I do not select format or assign drive letter. Every time I try to do the install I get the exact same error.
Is there anything I am missing or some trick or patch I may not have done?

Take a look at this notes!!

Installing BC with XP upgrade that has sp2. problems ahead?

Hi Gang,
My version of XP Pro SP2 is an upgrade. So I have to insert my orginal windoze 2000 cd. If I install BC 2.1 and try to install my version of windows, will I run into trouble?
On a PC my install has been simple with the 'insert disk of valid windows, then replace with the upgrade disk.
Im praying I dont have to go spend more precious money with M$.
Thanks for any input you can offer.

deepsnow:
The upgrade version of XP SP2 will not work with boot camp. The requirements are listed [HERE|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/11889.html].
The reason for this is once the Windows XPSP2 installation CD is inserted in the drive to begin installation then there is no way to eject it for confirmation. This is because there are no drivers for the CD/DVD drive installed at that point.

Installing XP with OEM + Upgrade

I found this post in a recent thread:
From: Blah_jg
I had the same issue using a OEM full version of XP Pro. The OEM version did not present me with the option to reformat. I had an Windows XP Update version from a previous PC install. I used it and selected the "repair" option. The repair option gave me a command prompt. At the command prompt I used the format c: /FS command. You can find all the options for this DOS command by doing google search. I did have to first format first NTFS then I ran it again and formatted FAT32. The update disk was used to format only not install. Once that was done, I was able to install the OEM version on this newly formatted boot camp volume. I now have my bootcamp disk formatted to FAT32 with XP on it. I am able to browse the windows partition from Mac OS and drag and drop files to folders. I also installed Fusion afterwards and it recognized it and works great as well.
Can someone make sense of all of this? And then possibly post a step by step guide as to how to do this? Because I have both an OEM version of XP SP2 AND an upgrade installation disc so I will hopefully be able to do this but I'm not understanding what this user did.
When I insert the upgrade disc, I pressed "R" and got to the command prompt screen of the Recovery Console. But I don't understand what to type here. And also, is this after I've installed Windows? Or before that but after partitioning with Boot Camp? Or before everything? It's not clear in this post.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe

I know, it's not very well said here.
Basically what I want to do is install Windows XP with SP2 through Boot Camp on my Mac. But it seems anyone who has an OEM full version of XP never gets the screen that allows them to reformat the Boot Camp partition to FAT or NTFS format. It's supposed to happen during the first phase of the XP install (the one with the blue screen background and that looks like a DOS screen). In the Boot Camp manual, on page 9 is where we pick the partition to use, ie. the Bootcamp one, and then on page 10 is where it says we choose how to reformat that partition. Well it is page 10 of the manual that we don't see when we try to install an OEM full version of XP. So the install works up to 100% and then the Mac reboots but then gives the black screen of "Disk error, press any key to continue" which is a dead screen where nothing works. Sometimes the disc is spat out also and the 2nd phase of the installation with the XP screen, as opposed to the DOS one, never happens. Also, on the Mac partition, the Boot Camp partition appears on the desktop still called "BOOTCAMP" and it is filled with files and folders belonging to XP.
Now this user has apparently had the same issue with the OEM full version... got as far as I and many others on the forums here have, but then also had another copy of XP, one that he called an "Update" version, which I think might be the same as an upgrade version. I too have an upgrade version (an Academic Upgrade version of XP with SP2). When that is inserted after the first XP disc is spat out, it takes us to that blue DOS screen that we see with the first XP installation disc but we now have 3 different options. One is to "Exit" one is to try to install XP, which won't work because it ALONE is not a full version of XP, and the third option is to "Repair" an XP partition.
Now for this user, he/she knew what to do after choosing the "Repair" option... it gives a black DOS screen with the DOS prompt and according to the user, we can reformat the Boot Camp partition using a specific command prompt (basically perform the step that is missing from the manual) and somehow complete the rest of the installation. This is where I get lost.
I firstly don't understand how to repair/reformat in that black DOS screen step, nor when in the entire process (starting from partitioning in Boot Camp and ending with the first XP full OEM edition being spat out, I'm supposed to do the repair option. Do I do it after the partition is complete in Boot Camp and before I begin installing the OEM version? Or at the very end of the OEM install... either way, I don't know how to do it anyway.
So I was wondering if someone had done this before or if the user could post a detailed description of the steps and how to perform each one for the uninitiated like me who find DOS just impossible to work with.
*takes a breath*
Thanks,
Joe

Installing software with intel upgrade - Rosetta

I currently running Toast on my Powermac, and have the original boxed version. Toast 7 has an intel update, so I can use it on an intel imac, that is on the way.
I will have to install the original version first, then download the intel update.
Will I have to activate Rosetta to do this - or is Rosetta activated by default.

Karen S wrote:
Thank you,I tried to mark this "helpful" but keep getting an error.
So, if I understand correctly, I can install any pre-intel app, just like normal, and then do the upgrade to the intel version, also just like nomal.
Correct Some non intel/UB apps perform better than others in Rosetta. But unless its something really demanding, you'll likely not have any problems at all.

HT3986 Installing Windows 7 from Upgrade disc

I have a Windows 7 Upgrade disc, can I use it to install Windows? Apple documentation says you can and then later says you can't. Is there a way to install Windows with an Upgrade disc or not? If so, how?

Yes, I guess that's what I was deducing. So if I'm coming from Windows and had previously purchased an upgrade disc, the only way to get Windows on the Mac would be to buy the full Windows OS. Or I'd need to buy the full version of XP or Vista in order to use my upgrade disc...meh.

Why my final cut pro 5 in install disc look dim and saying upgrade. I make it with studio upgrade to FCP 7. Now saying FCP 5 upgrade and dim

Hi, I used Final cut 5 and 1 year ago I buy it studio upgrade and I make 7. Everything was ok. Now I changed my computer again with mac pro. I started to install in new computer and I see Final Cut Pro 5 dim and saying upgrade. Was not optional cause for dim..Want it 2 media disc too and look like ok but not working..cant started studio upgrade. Anyone can say something please ?

There's no need to install the old version (5) of FCP on the new computer. Just start with the newest version. You will be prompted to enter the old serial number during the install process of the upgrade version.
If you've already installed version 5 on your new computer, use this to remove it:http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/ Then install the newest version only.

LiveType not intalled with FCP

For some reason LiveType was not installed with FCP. (My own fault im sure)
Can someone help me install it from the disk? Im using FCP 7, which has like 6 or more disks). Which disk is it on?
Thanks for the help.

FCP (final cut pro) comes as a part of the FCS (final cut suite)
FCS 1 had LT
FCS 2 had LT
FCS 3 has no LT
If you own a copy of FCS2 then you can use the disk(s) in that set and using a custom install, you can add LT to your FCS3

If I do a clean install on my MacBook Pro will I be able to re-install apps (FCP, Aperture, MS Office etc.) from a Time Machine backup, or will I need the original install DVDs with authorization codes?

I have two questions...
1) If I do a clean install on my MacBook Pro will I be able to re-install apps (FCP, Aperture, MS Office etc.) from a Time Machine backup, or will I need the original install DVDs with authorization codes? (because I don't have them)
2) Has anyone ever seen anything like this before on their computers?
The Apple Genius' were stumped by my laptop issues and said they'd never seen anything like it before and recommended I did a clean install. Below you can see my trash bin, and if you look at the "Empty" button it reads "N201" and then there's the "N39" to the left of it. You can also see these numbers over by the folder area--"SD5, SD6, SD7." But that's not all...
When I right click on items I see the numbers again. Instead of "Open with" I get "N152" and there's an "N35" and "LB1" towards the bottom.
I have no idea what's going on so I'm just going to do a clean install on my machine but I don't want to lose my apps. I don't have the original install DVDs for them anymore. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks!

You don't lose them. You can always redownload them from the app store after you log back in with your Apple ID.
"Buy, download, and even redownload.
You can install apps on every Mac you use and even download them again. This is especially convenient when you buy a new Mac and want to load it with apps you already own."

I would like to update Pages from 4.1 to 4.2. I did not purchase it from the App Store but installed it with iWorks. How do I complete the upgrade?

I would like to update Pages from 4.1 to 4.2. I did not purchase it from the App Store but installed it with iWorks. How do I complete the upgrade?

The iWork 9.2 updater is for those using Mountain Lion. Why do you want to update to Pages 4.2 if you're still running Lion? There is no benefit & many users have had problems.
That being said, you must make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. All three applications must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
Now, choose Software Update from the Apple menu, from System Preferences or launch the Mac App Store & click Updates. You should get a window similar to this screenshot. Now click the Update button next to iWork 9.2.
Alternatively, you can download the standalone update here.

Move 20GB of Apple Loops (installed with FCP Studio) to other drive

Main main disk is an SSD drive (so very limited space).
I recently did a check on folder sizes and found out that my full FCP installed about 20GB of Apple Loops which I am not really using (and that folder is 1/5 of my total HD!!).
Is there a way to move this folder to a different drive without creating any issues with FCP or Garage Band. Im happy to keep them installed, just not on my main SSD.
Any ideas?
Thanks

• Copy the Apple Loops folder to a different drive.
• Delete the original folder.
• In the new location, create an Alias of the Loops folder.
• Move the Alias back to the same location that the original folder was in.
• Remove the word "Alias" from the folder name.

Problems with re-installing HP wireless printing upgrade kit

I had to return my Dell Inspiron 6400 to original factory settings and since then I cannot install the wireless printing upgrade kit. It says it cannot recognise the pc adapter even though Windows has installed the driver automatically for it. So hangs and won't install. I'm trying to get wireless connection for a HP Laserjet CP1215. Any ideas most welcome!

Hi, No hardware kit. The following driver is for Windows 8.1: http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL32135/bi-109984-2/OJ_SF_K8600_140_408-4.exe Most likely this will work with Windows 10 for printers which are less than 3 years old. Regards.
