Unsupported HD?

Aloha gang - I'm really hoping someone can help me out with this weird problem.
I have here a 12" PB G4 1.5GHz. It was hanging at startup (apple screen) so figured I'd do some diags and put Tech Tool in. Hardware test passed with flying colors but drives and volumes grey'd out. Hmm.. ok .. so apparently there are no drives or volumes .. let's try Disk Warrior .. so I put it in and sure enough, there's nothing there. Weird enough but I figured I'd put in the OS install disk and hit up Disk Utility. More weirdness - it says the HD's total capacity is 741.5 MB .. no, that's not a typo ...not only that, but I can't even erase it or verify it. So I go to profiler and I'm checking it out and sure enough it says the Matshita DVD-R is 741.5 and the SMART status is "not supported".
Please please please tell me there's something I can do about this .. thanks in advance.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Let me see if I got this right:
- you have a 12" PB G4 1.5 GHz
- your internal HDD does not show up or is dimmed out
- you have tried TechTool Pro, Disk Warrior and no HDD shows up
- launching Disk Utility from the install disk shows only the optical drive and the install disk in the sidebar
If the above is correct, my guess is that your internal HDD has failed. The only other troubleshooting of which I can think is to remove the HDD, put it in an external FW enclosure, connect it to the computer and see if you can boot from it. If it does boot you are looking at either a ATA ribbon cable issue, or an ATA Controller/logic board issue, both of which are less likely than a failed HDD.
Please please please tell me there's something I can do about this .. thanks in advance.
• If you do not have a current backup you could try to access it via Firewire Target Disk Mode. If that does not pan out you can download the demo version of DataRescue II and see if it can locate your data. If it does you will need to purchase the software to be able to rescue your data. Dr. Smoke's FAQ Data Recovery has helpful ideas on how to do this.
• Start looking for a new HDD. If you are at all handy, you may be able to replace it yourself. If you are interested, post back for more information.
Good luck.

Upgrade from SCCM 2012 SP1 CU4 to R2 Fails - Unsupported Upgrade Path

Hi everybody,
I'm currently upgrading our SCCM infrastructure to SCCM 2012 R2 after have finished with the upgrade from SCCM 2012 RTM to SP1 CU4, thus far everything works fine, but when I try to update any
of the site servers, whether CAS or Primary, I'm getting the following error message in the Prerequisites Check:
I've gone through the system requirements and prerequisites over and over again and I can assure you that every possible update, supported OS, feature set, SQL Server, check list, etc,
etc, have been followed as per the official documentation available, however I'm stuck in this point, and surely enough I haven't been able to find out a similar case.Additionally I'm adding

-2014 02:07:00> INFO: Detected current installed build version [7711] for sitecode [BRA]. For Upgrade, minimum supported installed build version is [7804].
I confirm that this one site is a secondary one that's attached to a primary site and this log is from the CAS server, I managed to tall it and delete it from that site, but still appears listed
on the CAS management console, any idea how to force the removal of a secondary site that's attached to a primary from the CAS site when it has been removed already from said primary?
I've already tried the
Preinst /DELSITE XXX command but it only works when the site to remove it's attached to the local site and certainly not from a CAS
Finally, the version, build number and everything is correct, no idea what could be the problem, does anybody know a way to bypass this or force the re-evaluation of this rules, I've got
the impression that it's being cached somehow.
Any help would be highly appreciated,
Thank you.

Hello again everybody,
I've finally managed to fix this up, in the end I had to delete those entries manually from the database as Garry suggested. After this was done the upgrade has gone through as expected with no further ado and has finalized already, now moving on to the
primary sites.
If anybody out there is facing the same issue, what I did was to delete those "stubborn" records executing the following statements over the CAS database:
DELETE
FROMServerDataWHERESiteCode='XXX'
DELETE
FROMSC_SiteDefinitionWHERESiteCode='XXX'
And this is pretty much about it. I'd recommend to take a proper backup first though as best practice.
Thank you all anyways for your answers and comments,

You should be able to find Firefox by searching for it in the Android market on the device.

Open library from AFP share - Unsupported File System - Aperture 3

Testing Aperture 3 - Exported a project as a library to an AFP (10.5) share.
I then tried to reopen the library and got an error Unsupported File System ?
Is there possibly a network file system that will support Aperture 3 libraries ?

Temp solution in this thread - tested it and it works
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2330306&tstart=30
I have found an workaround for this issue. Do the following:
First, upgrade the library to version 3 using Aperture on the computer where you have the disk containing the library; if this is not possible, copy the library on the computer running Aperture and do the update there, then copy the updated library back;
Then navigate to the network disk where you have the updated library and double-click it: a dialog box will come out saying something like <There was an error opening the database for the library "/Volumes/Media/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary". The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported> Click OK.
A new dialog box will appear asking "Which library do you want Aperture to use?" and a list with all libraries; among them, the library situated on the network disk. Select it and click "Choose".
Voila, after a delay depending on the speed of your network and remote disk, the library will open.
Note that this "show" will repeat each time you will start-up Aperture. Anyway, it's better than nothing. I hope that Apple will correct this soon.
And yes, I am using the Trial Version, I will buy a license only after Apple solves this issue! "

Mac Mini G4 Unsupported Video Format DVI to HDMI 42 Phillips 1080P LCD TV

When connecting my Mac Mini G4 to my 42" Phillips 1080P LCD TV using a DVI to HDMI cable I get a message on the TV "Unsupported Video Format" message. I can connect my PowerBook G4 using the same cable and it connects great.
One thing I have noticed is when connecting my Mini via DVI cable to my 17" LCD monitor the screen is a fated red. But using a VGA cable the screen is fine. I don't know if this is having to do anything with the issue of connecting to my LCD TV.
Any suggestions?

Make sure the connections are good and tighten down the thumb screws on all connectors. If two monitors are giving problems with DVI, it could be there is a hardware problem with the DVI port on the mini.
Also, try starting in Safe mode (boot while holding down the shift key) and see if you get a useable screen in that case. If you still get the unsupported video format message, then that would further suggest some hardware problem with DVI.

Don't use the CD software its not necessary.
Infact put it in the trash.
Your router will have an IP address in the range 192.168.1.1
Connect your router to your Mac via Ethernet cable (They usually supply one with the router and don't worry which end goes where the Mac LAN socket is bi-directional)
Also connect your router to your telephone line.
Now open your Web browser Safari . Type in the IP address above and a Javascript control panel will launch
Enter the default password and username (They are on a label on the router )
Your now have the ability to set up your router.
Your will need the password and user name supplied to you by your ISP at a minimum.
Enter these and most modern routers automatically configure the basic networking setting.
You now need to go to the security setting and set this as WPA2 Personal (NOT Enterprise) or WPA2 with AES and TKIP which ever it refers to and create a pass-phase. WRITE it down
You should be online.
Now remove the cable and connect to the Wifi and enter that passphase.

ITunes on XP unsupport Vunerable?

Hello Friends,
I am on an XP machine and now unsupported, what can I use for a calendar that iTunes will sync with?
I had thought of trying to use iCloud, (in the clouds), meaning not on my machine, but how can that work? For instance I have always thought that using iCloud this way was strictly to have a backup of my iPhone 4s calendar in the clouds.
Then I thought of putting iCloud on my machine, but unless I am missing something, would that not be the same as using my Outlook 2010 as it would be susceptible to all the XP breaches, correct..?
Any advice or suggestions would be more that appreciated.
Thank you Friends.

Hi David,
Since you are using iCloud to sync your calendar, you could also use the icloud.com website for your email needs if you wish. However, this would involve creating an email address that ends in @icloud.com. You could forward your existing email account to the @icloud address. Doing this will enable you to send and receive emails from the web at www.icloud.com. The email activity from this email address will be synced to your iPhone. Here's some additional information:
iCloud: Set up an @icloud.com email address

I hope this information helps ....

How to handle an unsupported RAW format (Canon EOS T2i/550D)

I just got the Canon EOS T2i Digital Rebel today. I wasn't expecting Aperture to support its RAW files yet and it doesn't. My plan is to shoot RAW + JPEG until RAW support arrives. I've noticed some strange things happening during import. At first only a few files showed up in the import window. Checking/unchecking the import duplicates box did nothing. Eventually somehow all the photos showed up. I couldn't tell you what I did that made any difference.
The camera writes separate CR2 and JPG files to the card. The first time I imported I set the RAW + JPEG Pairs setting to "Both (JPEG as Master)". For some reason only the CR2 was imported and as expected it showed the unsupported icon. I couldn't see any JPEGs. I did the import again and now all the files are there but the CR2 and JPEGs are not linked in any way. I guess I don't understand how this should work.
Does anyone have any experience with RAW+JPEG shooting?

On a retry, the import seems to be working correctly with RAW + JPEG pairs. The first time I tried this I was using an SD card formatted and used (with images on it) from a Canon EOS T1i. Maybe that was confusing Aperture.
I formatted the card with the T2i, reshot some images and re-imported with the setting of Both (JPEG as Master). The imported images have the "J" badge which means RAW + JPEG pairs with JPEG as master. If there was an "R" badge it means the RAW file is the master. When you right click the images there's a new menu entry for "Set RAW as master". Selecting that menu item shows the RAW file with the unsupported image icon.
Once Apple delivers RAW support for the T2i I can just select the "Set RAW as master" menu item to start using the RAW file.

E1200 V2 upgraded to OS 10.8.2, Cisco Connect unsupported OS, also update firmware?

I purchased myu E1200 Jan 2012. Have been intermittent loss of connection & not sure whether it is old cable modem or router or? ISP came out & checked & changed some cable fittings said looked ok, but could be my old modem. (I'm getting ready to move out of area so don't want to buy a new modem now). But also a lot of my neighbors w Cox report intermittent loss of connection.
I will get messages saying I'm not connected to internet. Usually if i go up & turn off wireless & then turn it back on, it will search & find my router. Frequently though I notice that when I check it has switched to my guest rather than primary for some reason.
I was having some of this before I even went to wifi a yr ago.
Just upgraded to Mountain Lion a couple weeks ago or so. Last night computer had a panic. I received advice to make sure all software as well as router firmware up to date. Found & updated MacBookPro Firmware update. Backed up.
Opened CiscoConnect & got message unsupported Operating System.
Reading about upgrading firmware, saw warnings about doing it hard wired or it could permanently damage router. Because of the intermittent connectivity problems & the warning, I think I would be safest to do this manually by downloading it 1st & then updating the firmware from the download.
I see that instructions say to determine Firmware version. & it also says it will ask for router IP address. I'm guessing all that was in Cisco Connect. I know it has my passwords, but now I can't get to it. It also says I can use the web set up page to get the current firmware version. For updates (but it says for pc) it shows 8/2011 & 8/2012. Since mine was purchased in 1/2012 & unless it self updated, I'm guessing it is running the 8/2011 firmware. But just noticed in the User Guide it says that when I run Cisco Connect it checks for updates & installs them. But that's kind of interesting w all the warnings about running it w a wired connection to make sure no interruptions. Not sure how I have it set up, but I usually set software updates to prompt me so I can control when they actually run.
Once I have gotten that, will I be able to manually download the appropriate firmware version? Or if I click on that, will that start a set up or update process?
If I download Cisco Connect, will it update the already installed version, keeping all my existing info? & then will that be compatible w Mountain Lion & then show me whether the firmware needs to be updated?
Kathi

But anyway, I can't even open the old version!!! I just get a message about unsupported OS! So kind of hard to uninstall if I can't open it.
& for some reason when I was installing Mountain Lion, upgrading from Snow Leopard it found an old version of Parallels which I knew was not compatible. Didn't even think about this.
Its sort of working but something is not working very well. I sure wish I hadn't listened to those who said to save the $ & not get the Apple Airport Express. Their stuff works & its not hard to set up like this!
This is SO LAME!!!
& Where is lists the info, I have so far found NO INFO about updating. I usually have my software set to notify me so I control when it updates. & I think the last times I was in Cisco Connect it was under pressure just trying to get the router working again.
Right now I feel like throwing it at something.
Well, I have twice tried to download from the list for my model & when I click on the set up icon I get a message that "Setup" is damaged and can't be opened. You shold eject the disk image." But when I click for more info it says:

Hi,
We have certain SSRS report (which includes subreports) which
many users are able to access, but
some users cannot access- they get this error:
"Unsupported RPL stream version detected: 101.116.1047292257. Expected version: 10.6."
(We are not using SP integrated mode)(using SSRS 2008 R2)
No problem in VS or on server when trying to run this report.
User having this problem has the sam ewindows and explorer versions.
Please advice

How?
Another detail- on the problematic user's computer if I run the explorer using my credentials, the report runs fine.

OEM Apple nVidia GeForce 7300 GT is on Adobe's list of unsupported GPUs for Open GL rendering-

My Mac Pro's Radeon X1900 XT is retired to my computer grave yard, in my basement, but going back to the OEM Apple nVidia GeForce 7300 GT, which shipped with my Mac Pro, brought some encouraging results.
When I first got the 2007 Mac Pro, in 2009, I was running it in Mac OS 10.4.4.11 Tiger and Photoshop CS4 (11.0.0) would disable Open GL rendering when it detected the stock nVidia GeForce 7300 GT card, which was on Adobe's list of unsupported graphics GPUs. So, I purchased a refurbished Apple Radeon X1900 XT. This card allowed Photoshop CS4 and Bridge CS4 to enable Open GL Rendering. Over the last year, the Radeon X1900 XT graphics card has been creating stripes on my screen when it is running hot and sometimes the dual displays would just shut off while I was working. Also, the computer was doing hardware freezes about once a day. This morning the Mac Pro shut down it's dual displays, while I was working, and I had to do another cold shut off in order to restart. I then manually shut the computer down and did a manual boot-up so that Snow Leopard would employ disk maintenance.
I shut the computer off and pulled the Radeon X1900 XT card and re-inserted the OEM Apple nVidia GeForce 7300 GT card. Now I'm running Mac OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard with Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2) instead of Photoshop CS4 (11.0.0).
Now, the updated Photoshop CS4, under the newer OS, is enabling Open GL rendering instead of disabling it. This graphics card's hardware limitation is now fixed, so I see no reason to buy the ATI Radeon HD 5770 Graphics Upgrade Kit for my Mac Pro:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Apple/6615718/
Some who have purchased the Apple ATI Radeon HD 5770 say they still got the striping on their display when the Radeon HD 5770 card was running hot, just like with the Radeon X1900 XT.
So far, the OEM Apple nVidia GeForce 7300 GT is working fine and I'm not getting any striping on my displays with no display shut-offs or hardware freezes.
I'm glad to have Adobe's Open GL rendering enabled with an OEM graphics GPU that runs cool and requires no imbedded cooling fan. Apples OEM nVidia GeForce 7300 GT, for the Mac Pro, is on Adobe's list of unsupported GPUs for Open GL rendering under Photoshop CS4, so why is it supported now? Is that just one of the benefits of the Photoshop CS4 11.0.2 update?

Chirs, thanks for your info but you are talking about Photoshop CS5, which does not support OpenGL drawing on the Mac nVidia 7300 or the Mac Radeon X1900. As long as I am using Photoshop CS4 and have not yet upgraded to CS5, I can continue to use the Mac nVidia 7300 and get limited OpenGL drawing support from Photoshop. And it is working fine.
Today I found out that Adobe has updated their OpenGL support information and apparemntly when I upgraded my Mac from Tiger to Leopard, and later, I gained Photoshop's Open GL support for the Apple nVidia GeForce 7300 GT:
Supported video cards (Mac OS)
Intel-based Macintosh, tested on Mac OS X 10.4.11 and 10.5.4
17-inch iMac x1600, 128 MB
ATI HD 2600, 256 MB
MacBook Air intel GMA X3100
Nvidia Quadrofx 4500, 512 MB
Radeon x1900, 512 MB
Intel-based Macintosh, tested on Mac OS X 10.5.4 only
8800 GT, 512 MB
iMac 8800 GS, 512 MB
Nvidia 8600M, 256 MB
The following Power PC cards work in Photoshop CS4: Nvidia 7800 (256 MB), Nvidia GeForce 7800 GT, and the Nvidia Quadro FX 4500.
Note: OpenGL is enabled for the GeForce 7300GT, but Advanced Drawing and 3D Acceleration are disabled.
So, when I upgrade to Photoshop CS5, I will need to replace my video card with something compatible with Photoshop CS5s OpenGL drawing engine. Do you think the ATI Radeon HD 5770 Graphics Upgrade Kit, for my Mac Pro, will get Photoshop CS5 to make OpenGL drawing availible and active?
I appriciate an Adobe employee, like yourself, providing the information I need to make the right hardware choices when upgrading to Adobe CS5.

How To Set Up Your Unsupported Printer

I managed to get my unsupported printer working, and I'd thought I'd share my experience.
This guide will help you achieve:
Installation of unsupported printers.
Setup of "print services" on network.
A litte background: I have an Okidata C3200n, it's a GDI printer, and relies heavily on the manufacturer dirvers to function correctly on any operating system. Unfortunately for me (and many others) it seems that Okidata has been dragging their feet when it came to publishing drivers in preparation for Lion. They sent out an official announcement (OKI Printer Driver Compatibility with Mac OS X Lion - Revision 1.6) which details expected release dates for various printers. Mine won't be until mid-December, or so. Major bummer there. I use this printer for my daily business in my company, and can't go without it for more than a few days, so waiting until December is clearly not an option.
Having experienced Okidata tech support in the past, and having worked with them to get my printer running on Linux before there was a Linux driver available, I decided to give them a call to see if they would have a work-around, perhaps with some opensource drivers, to tide users over until then. Their response was that I need to down-grade to Snow Leopard, or get a new printer. Some customer support that is. They drag their feet in developing drivers, then ask us to inconvenience ourselves until they get their act together -- not acceptable.
So, having been through this before in Ubuntu, I remember Foomatic CUPS print drivers. This is where the almost pain-less solution comes in. This process does involve some command-line work, but I'll try to spell everything out as clearly as possible here.
Log on to your LION server (or desktop, but in my situation I am setting up a network printer) using your admin account (I use Local Admin, but your setup may vary).
Download Foomatic-RIP and Ghostscript for Mac and install them: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/foomat ic
Locate your printer: http://www.openprinting.org/printers
If you printer page lists a driver for download, go ahead and install it. You should be good to go and the driver should be available to use on LION. If your printer lists a Filter (in my case foo2hiperc), continue reading.
Download WGET to your Downloads folder from here: http://www.techtach.org/wget-prebuilt-binary-for-mac-osx-lion.
Download and install Mac Ports from here: Mac Ports for Lion.
Download and install XCode from the AppStore: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/xcode/id448457090?mt=12
Open Terminal and enter the following:
sudo port install gsed
cd ~/Downloads
wget -O foo2zjs.tar.gz http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/foo2zjs.tar.gz sdff
tar zxf foo2zjs.tar.gz
cd foo2zjs
make
sudo make install (you may need to enter your admin password at this time, it will prompt you if you do)
sudo make cups
Now, if everything went well (if you didn't see any error messages), we're all done with command-line. Let's get your printer up and running. Open Safari and browse to http://localhost:631. This is your CUPS printer admin area (why Apple didn't make a full-fledged server admin GUI I have no idea). You may need to authenticate, again with your local admin user.
Click on the Administration tab, then click the Add Printer button.
Choose your printer. If it is not listed, select the appropriate protocol. (I like using IPP.)
If you selected a protocol, enter the destination details here. For example you may need to enter your printer's IP address. Then click Continue.
Now you can name your printer to something readable and friendly, as well as give it a location, if you have multiple printers in different rooms or buildings. Be sure to check "Share this printer." to make it available to all your networked LION client machines. Again, press Continue when ready.
On this screen you will be selecting the driver for your printer. Click the Select Other Manufacturer button, and select the manufacturer of your printer and hit Continue. You will now see a list of updated drivers. One of these should be the foomatic or foo2hiperc driver we just installed. Highlight the corresponding driver for your printer, and click the Add Printer button.
Lo and behold, you now have a networked printer set up on your server. I know what you're thinking now ... you're dreading having to do this on all of the client machines as well, right? Luckily, this is where I think the hidden genius of Apple lies. They know why they dropped support for custom drivers. By using CUPS server on the LION clients as well, they can speak to the server directly in CUPS native language, leaving the server to interpret how it needs to be sent to the printer. GENIUS!
You should now be able to scurry on over to your LION client machine and see the shared printer available to install. It will automatically install itself and the driver it needs without hastle.
I would like to give credit to my brother Sebastian Bronner, who helped me find the right resources. I put these steps together based on the instructions at http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/foomat ic and http://foo2hiperc.rkkda.com/, made available by the OpenSource community.
Please let me know if you have any issues or questions, and if this solution helped you.
Best of luck,
~Mike

Thanks for this - I also have an OKI (a C5500) and this is a Godsend as I would struggle to replace it.
A couple of comments:
Points 6 and 7 should be switched - MacPorts wouldn't install until XCode was installed. You my also want to expand the XCode instructions to say that the App Store link downloads the installer and that you need to go into Launchpad and run it to fully install XCode.
The gsed installation also popped up and asked me to install Java (through Software Update). I did this and the installation of gsed continued and completed succesfully.
If wget is in the Downloads folder, the command you have to use it in point 8 should be prefaced with ./ as it's the local folder it will run from.
You have an extraneous line right below the wget command (sdff).
Otherwise, this is a really excellent procedure.
Many thanks,
Des
