Trouble Free Install

Yesterday, I installed Leopard on my Macbook Pro with no problems what so ever. Before the install, I made sure my HD was repaired and reporting no problems. Then I made a boot back up on my G-Raid.
When it came time for the install, I put the Leopard install CD in the drive and it went to work. I just followed the system prompts. I was never asked to choose an "update" or archive and install or erase and install... nothing. The program just installed itself in all of about 40 minutes. No problems at all.
Now if I could just find a way to control the system font size. The fonts in the finder side bar is so small. HELP

  • Upgrade to CS4 Prod. Premium - is it trouble free

    There is probably a forum for CS4 Production Premium but I wanted to get the opinions of a few photoshop users who may have made this upgrade.
    I'm running Windows XP pro on P4 3.2gh processors with 2 gb Ram.
    I've been using Production studio of CS2 and later upgraded some tools to CS3 like photoshop and Illustrator.
    I remember having a fair bit of trouble installing Production Studio... A lot of people did when it was new.  A lot of dinking around was required as I recall.
    I'm now wanting to upgrade to CS4 Production Premium and wondered if people could share there experiences with that sort of upgrade.
    Is the cs4 package a pain in the butt to install... Did it install smoothly.
    Please let me know what to expect...

    If you can find any software that is trouble free I would like to buy stock in that company.  But seriously, CS4 makes major demands on the video card and you would be wise to read threads on this forum to see how that would affect you with your current computer hardware/csoftware.
    Yikes... I should have known someone would feel compelled to make that quip.
    Must have been clear that my question was more... `was it a pain in the butt to install'.
    Can you be a little more specific about what you are hinting at?  Hard to know how to be wise with no clue to go on.
    I have an Nvidia GeForce FX 5700LE (256MB) card
    I guess another thing to ask is if its worth upgrading to CS4.  Is there lots of new functionality?
    Just reading the `whats new' hype isn't like hearing from experienced users what they find worth using.
    I remember back when I upgraded to Production Studio, one of the big things I was after was the
    `Dynamic link' .  After the big buildup of how great it would be... I was pretty disappointed and never did find it very usefull at all. in fact it seemed to make the machine more unstable when calling up both AE and Premiere at the same time.  I quit using altogether after a few crashes.  And even when I didn't crash it just wasn't much different or better than the old way.
    This upgrade will cost me about $600 for the upgrade I'm qualified for.
    But back to the clues about what to look for... can you suggest some likely search strings to use?

  • KT4 Ultra +Radeon 9700 Pro Trouble Free !

    After a few months of relatively trouble free gaming with KT4 Ultra and Radeon 9700 Pro, I was shocked to find recently that my PC began to crash after only a few minutes of gameplay.   8o
    Believing that a reinstall of all the relavent drivers would cure the problem, I set about trawling through the latest advice on what works / doesnt work. This I have to say was a minefield of anecdotes, mainly bad ones - as most of you guys are probably aware !
    After installing drivers as 'best' I could, the problem remained the same.
    It would appear that to ask for a complete list of recommended drivers is futile, since there is little correlation between reported 'fixes'. There is always someone reporting that the latest versions are causing problems.
    For the moment, this tale has a happy ending cos I found that the system is getting too hot (after some months !), so with the side panel off and a 12 inch desk fan blowing inside I managed a 4 hour session with now problems. )
    The purpose of the post is to highlight the disturbing fragility of these systems (which i'm sure many of you have first hand experince), both in hardware and software and to share my disbelief at the apparent lack of sustained testing that these boards undergo.
    Looks like a better cooling system is in order  

    It's unfortunate that most of the new hardware seems to pump out heat. The ATI 9700 pro use about 100W of power on it's own. The whole system puts out enough heat to warm a small room.
    I have noticed that the heatsink on the ATI card gets very hot, even though it has a fairly serious fan on it (the fan on my Sapphire card is a lot like a blue orb).
    I am wondering if a lot of problems with these setups are thermal. I have the KT4 Ultra and ATI 9700 pro and it has not given problems at all.
    I have (from past experience) installed plenty of cooling in my case (a full tower, that helps too). I find that the cooler everything as kept, the less problems there are.
    I think that at some stage in the near future there will have to be a change somewhere. Either in heat output (reduction in power use) or cooling.

  • After 2 years of trouble free use I can no longer access Facebook on my iPhone4 although I can access it on my laptop which is supposedly synced with my iPhone, anyone out there able to help please.

    the clue is in the message title i.e. after two years successful and trouble free use I am suddenly unable to access Facebook on my iPhone 4 whereas I can still access it on my PC which I keep synced with my iPhone. Am I/have I done something stupid to make this happen ANY help would be appreciated.

    Have you recently used any midi controller with Logic.. such as a hardware controller or even an iPad app.
    If you used an iOS app, power down (Not just put to sleep) your iOS device and see what happens.. If that fixes it you are running an iOS controler in the background and so you will need to close it..
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Failing that, quit Logic and trash the Control Surface pref file.... restart Logic and see if that cures it..
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Press the Go button.
    Delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.

  • Having trouble re-installing ituneson my PC. error message half-way through install keeps appearing ""apple mobile device service failed to start. verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

    Hello, I am having trouble re-installing itunes on my PC. error message keep popping up "Apple mobile device failed to start, verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

    The thread mentioned above now has some out of date direct links. This is a more recent version of that post...
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I'm having trouble with installing a 8g kit in my late 2009 mac mini. when the parts are installed all i get is a beeping sound, is there any way to get around this?

    i'm having trouble with installing a 8g kit in my late 2009 mac mini. when the parts are installed all i get is a beeping sound, is there any way to get around this?

    What is the source & link to this 8 GB kit please?
    Can you count the beeps or flashes?
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
    5 beeps = processor is not usable
    In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
    Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

  • Sb live 5.1 trouble after installing new ATI 9550 card... help

    hi there !a couple of days ago my brave asus geforce 4 ti card crashed and i installed an ati excalibur 9550 se as backup. almost everything works fine, only winamp seems to make trouble: whenever i playback some music, it has lapses with buzzing sound (sorry, not a natural speaker so i don't know any fitting words). in the past i got the same effect when i was hearing music while starting to burn an cd/dvd but now it allways happens... anyone an idea what causes this error and how to fix it
    I've got an asus p4b533 board and an soundblaster li've 5. ... since i also use my pc via tv card to watch tv, and the sound of this is absolutly without any errors, i suppose that it can't just be a defect soundcard or mainboard... anybody got the same trouble after installing a new grafic card ?thanks for your help,christian

    Hello. I have the exact same problem and have not been able to fix it. I have a SB Li've with an Asus P4b Motherboard. I've tried many things (playing with Codecs, updating drivers, even returning the card back to the store thinking the problem was hardware). The second card did the samething. I also tried to change the card from its PCI slots (I've tried them all) but it's still creates weird noises when playing MP3s and MPEGs, whatever the slot. Hopefully, I have a sound card integrated to the motherboard, so I use this one instead, but it's not as powerful. When using the SB card, I make sure to deactivate the motherboard's sound card in the BIOS to avoid conflicts. Could anyone help ? I've had this card for a couple of years now and have never been able to use it.

  • I have trouble when installing Oxford advanced learner's dictionary

    I'm experiencing some troubles when installing the Oxford advanced learner's dictionary in OS X Maverick . It does not run the dictionary. I tried several times, but it shouts down itself.   

    That's because it's not compatible with Mavericks.
    Here's something from the OALD website that might help though:
    Apple OSX.9 Update
    Since the recent release of OSX.9 Mavericks. We have identified a compatibility issue with some of our CD/DVD-ROM titles. On inserting these titles into a computer, users are presented with an error message informing them that “the application quit unexpectedly”. We’re currently working on how to resolve this issue, but in the meantime we can advise the following workaround. Please copy the full contents of the disc to a hard-drive location on your machine. Click the ‘start.app’ file, and the program will run without error.

    Please help!!! I cannot update all my free installed programs on my iPhone 4S. I want to remove my credit card info from my Appe ID but there is no none !!!

    Had you never backed up the phone before? When you saw the iTunes logo and cable, the device was in recovery mode. The data was already lost. The only way to recover from that is to restore the device, which will delete all of your data. You will only be able to restore to your last backup, whenever that was. Sorry this happened, but this highlights the importance of doing regular backups. The backup is the only protection you have against a problem like this.

  • Trouble free year?

    Just curious to know if anyone has had their Ipod mini for a trouble free year? One year of reliable good constant service. Also if the battery lasts just a year, and its almost as expensive to replace the battery as it is to buy a new one, that basicaly makes it a throw away item in just a year, correct me if Im wrong.

    "its almost as expensive to replace the battery as it is to buy a new one, that basicaly makes it a throw away item in just a year, correct me if Im wrong.
    Ok, you're wrong. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers a battery replacement for $59, plus $6.95 shipping, and there are 3rd party battery vendors who do it for much less. And where did you get the idea that the battery lasts just a year? There has to be more myths and legends about the iPod battery than the legens of King Arthur!!
    And yes, my wife's mini has had just over one year of trouble free use. Not one single issue.

    The first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7 on your qualifying new or factory refurbished iOS device, you will be offered iMovie, iPhoto, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers for free in addition to other free software from Apple. When you tap Download All and sign in with your Apple ID, the apps will be downloaded to your device and added to your store account. If you tap Not Now when you see the offer, you can go back to each of the apps in the store and download them one at a time for free.

  • Troubles when installing wls81 sp6

    Hi everybody, we are having troubles when installing weblogic 8.1 service pack 6:
    In our code, we do not close the connection to the data base when we have finished using it.
    Before we install SP6, although there is no connection.close() in the code, when GC executes the connection automatically closes and it's returned to the connection pool.
    Now that we've installed SP6, the connection remains open and, after executing several times, the connectionPool crashes
    Is there a temporary patch for SP6 to prevent this situation

    Is there a temporary patch for SP6 to prevent this situationHi,
    By default the later servers will not implement the finalize() methods in
    our pool classes, because they are very expensive for server runtime
    performance in the normal case, like making all the olympic swimmers
    race wearing a life-preserver for safety... The ideal case is to fix your
    code to close the connection. The alternatives are:
    1 - can you configure the pool to have an idle connection timeout, so
    if a pool connection is leaked, it will be afirmatively retrieved after
    the timeout.
    2 - Try this command to configure a server property:
    java weblogic.Admin -username <user> -password <pass> -url localhost:7001 set -type Server -property AutoJDBCConnectionClose true
    Hi. This second option may not work because the property is
    marked to be excluded from tool access. Instead hand-edit
    the config.xml to set that server property, eg:
    <Server AutoJDBCConnectionClose="true" ListenPort="8001" Name="ms1">

  • Whoo Hoo! Trouble Free P965 Platinum Install!

    Well, this is going to be my first and probably only post here.  I know a lot of people who read this forum are either thinking of buying this board or have one and are getting ready to assemble their new machines. 
    I was in the later group and in reading through all the other posts I started to get a bit concerned that I was going to have a rough ride.  I am happy to report that that was not the case.  My build went smooth as butter.  Here what I put together...
    MSI P965 Platinum
    Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 Conroe CPU
    XFX GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB
    2 x 1 GB Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800
    Maxtor L01F300 320GB SATA
    NEC 18X DVD +/-R
    Antec TruePower Trio 650w
    COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 ATX Case
    I did run into two small issues.  First, I was getting a yellow "!" next to one entry in the device manager.  SM... something, can't remember exactly what it was called.  Turns out if you install the Intel INI drivers from the included install CD that gets cleared up.  Second was with the infamous JMicron drivers.  I was able to get XP installed, but I was getting REALLY SLOW read speeds when I was installing games.  I updated the drivers and and now my drive's speed is where it should be.
    So to sum up, this MoBo has been a dream to install, the very few problems I encountered were minor and my system is totally stable and fast!  If you're considering buying this board, by all means, go for it.
    Happy computing all!

    I'm glad to know that you are happy with your system .
    Enjoy and have Funz!
