Trying to re-install 10.4.8 and wont read disk

I have the upgrade version of 10.4.8 I can load my full version of Panther but when I put my 10.4 disk in it doesn't even put it up on desk top.I have tried to boot it to the disk by restarting holding the c key,but it ejects the disk and starts up on 10.3 I know the disk works on this system because I have run it before.I was just wanting to clean up the hard drive buy doing a clean install,and this is what it did

Hello Toddps,
First of all, welcome to the Apple discussions.
I have installed Tiger 2 days ago, an in the manual that came with the DVD disk it says ...
"Put the DVD in the computer an double click on it. Now double click on the X icon. Now select install an follow the directions. When ask to reboot press yes"
Good luck ...

Im trying to re-install Adobe photoshop elements and it says failure to install

I would like to say that your customer Service is the absolute worst I have ever spoken to... I am having trouble re-installing my photoshop elements 4.0 on my computer. I just used it yesterday and went to re-install it today because my computer had to be restored to factory settings. I waited 10 min and the phone hung up on me. I called back and waited 30 min and then hung up because it was taking so long. Then called back, complained to the first rep, he transferred me to another rep who transferred me and I waited 52 min for a CSR to tell me that I need to go to forums.com. This is terrible..what is there job if they are just referring people to a forum. I would love to download 12.0 at some point but I do not have the funds at this time and the 4.0 will get the job done, but it will not let me download. I need this asap for my job. I am wasting valuable time from my job and kids w/ computer problems.
Thanks

My imac keeps ejecting discs and wont read them

I did not ask for the full serial number. Anyway, you are the 7th week of 2008, unlikely that is a PRAM battery issue.
Since your machine isn't under warranty, I'd try a CD cleaner that supports car stereos, like this one from Radio Shack online, but only if Apple Authorized service technician says it is safe:

This being a user to user forum, I can't say if it is or isn't.
Or you can buy a supported external optical drive, like the various ones from http://www.macsales.com/
Internal optical drive replacement is complicated, and possibly covered on http://www.ifixit.com/

Have used a couple of tools to forcibly emove ALL apple products (ASC and JV16). Cleaned registry, cleaned temp files, etc. Did have iTunes 8.x installed but was non-functional. Did an Add/Remove then tried to install iTunes 10.x and this started...
Any ideas?

perfect, thanks.
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Elements 10 won't finish installing. it says installing required shared technologies and wont go any

I tried installing elements 10 last night and part way through it just kept saying installing required shared technologies and stayed on that and won't go any farther. I've tried uninstalling it and starting over but it won't let me do that either. It says I need to finish installing what was already started. I'm very frustrated. I'm a photographer and I need to get this problem fixed so I can finish my work. Can you advise me to do anything to fix this?

Boot image does not exist and cannot read disk label errors.

Hi - I'm having a problem with installing Solaris 9 4/04 on a Netra T1. The Netra already has Solaris 7. I need to get this set up as a jumpstart server but it can't find the boot image. I'm using a brand new bonafide installation disk - not a copy. The system won't let me install/upgrade to Solaris 9 either. I get an error stating that disk label can't be read. I've tried swapping out the CDROM but I still get the same errors. Does anyone know what or why this may be happening? (Oh - and another strange thing - like I said the CDs are the original but there doesn't appear to be a cdrom/cdrom0/s0 directory. The directory I see is cdrom/cdrom0/sol_9_404_sparc/Solaris_9/Tools)
ERROR: Install boot image /cdrom/sol_9_404_sparc/Solaris_9/Tools/Boot does not exist
Check that boot image exists, or use [-t] to

Evaulating: boot cdrom [- nowin]@1/ide@e/cdrom@2:f File and args: [- nowin]

I appreciate any help at all - is there anyone out there who can tell me what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks

Hi check that you are booting of the right cd. Make sure it is soalris 9 software 1/2 if that fails then it may well be that your cd is buggered. most likely it is buggered it it cant find the boot image.

I am trying to re-install Adobe InDesign CS2 and having problems. It won't accept my old serial number, and while in the instructions it says it will give a new serial number I can't find that.

I know CS2 is old, but that is all I have.

Directions to find it are on the page with the installation instructions.
Locate the language and application you want to install and note its serial number (located to the right of the download links). The serial number is required during installation.
Note:The serial numbers included with your original CS2 applications do not work with these CS2 application versions.

I am trying to download/install OS X Yosemite, and keep getting an "error" message

I have an iMac with version 10.9.5 ( OS Mavericks). When I try to download the OS X Yosemite, I just get an error message and it stops downloading. Have tried about 5 times. It worked with my husbands computer, and I did the same thing, so not sure what is wrong!

I am having the same issue. It doesn't go above the 870 MB. I was able to download Yosemite on my Mac Book Air.
Can anyone help?

My mac has10.5.8 and should be compatible with new HP officejet pro 8600. I can't get it to install for wireless, nor to work with USB cable. Have tried downloading HP install directly from HP and it still doesn't work.

I just bought a new HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 printer. I have been unable to download the installation for wireless connection even though have had the assistance of Costco tech, HP tech and some advice from Apple. Because the system is MacOs 10.5.8 the error says it is incompatible, even though the product lists compatiblilty with 10.5, 10.6. I was advised 1 option might be to obtain Snow Leopard for installation, however am somewhat reluctant as the bo states 10.5 should work and Snow Leopard is 10.6, which is also listed as compatible. I am unable to get the printer to work even with USB cable. Too much time spent on this and I hate to start over with another printer because I'm afraid I might have the same trouble. Is Snow Leopard something I should get anyway? Help!

Snow Leopard has more compatible Java.

explains more about upgrading to Snow Leopard.
If that doesn't work to fix the problem, then see my FAQ* on printing:

Pre-installed win 8.1 and new hard disk

Goodevening, I have a G50-30 with win8.1 pre-installed. I didnt recived any disk, no driver disk, no software disk, no windows disk, even no windows product key.
Anyway, I'd like to change my hdd to ssd. So i've started with trying to create a windows-boot-copy using some free software to get the windows product key, in order to use a microsoft tool to create a boot-disk, but the product key i get results invalid, it doesnt' work. Microsoft support suggested me to ask lenovo, about my problem, so does anyone have a suggestion for me?
Matteo

hi Matteo,
Welcome to the Forums.
Can you try the following:
1. Check this guide on how to obtain a Windows 8.1 ISO (see Option One)
2. Follow this guide to make a bootable UEFI Win8.1 installer via DVD/USB flashdrive and use it to install Windows (the installation should be able to detect the Windows 8.1 product key in the UEFI firmware that should automatically activate Windows).
Let me know your findings.
Regards

Yesterday I was pushed into the sea with my Iphone 5s in my back pocket, as I got out I took my phone out of my pocket and it turned itself off. I have tried many ways but still is unsuccessful and wont turn on, what shall I do?

I was pushed into the sea with my iphone 5s in my back pocket, I got out and pulled my phone out of my back pocket and it turnt itself off. I went straight home and tried using a hair dryer but was unsucessful, put it in rice which also failed and i left it screen up on the radiator over night but still wouldnt turn on. It has charge on it although i still tried plugging it in to give it power and still was unable to power up. Can anyone give any suggestions on how i can fix it as for its not even 2 months old.

Try putting it in rice for a few hours. It does sound daft but it did work for mine
If you're going to put a phone in rice (not daft at all, the rice acts as a dessicant), it needs to be for a few days, not a few hours. The OP stated in their post that the did put it in rice. In addition to the liquid damage, salt water is also much more corrosive to electronics than plain water. The rice won't help with the salt.
