Upgrade to Tiger issue

Trying to upgrade to Tiger from Panther, with the Apple Retail DVD Backup DVD-R Install DVD. I have already upgraded my G4 Powerbook from this DVD, which now runs Tiger with no issues. When I insert the DVD into the G5, then mount the install stuff to the desktop, then click on the install icon, then go through the process, the computer then restarts and shows the progress wheel spinning for about five to seven minutes, then shuts the system off. I don't want to loose what exists on the computer, so I can't erase and clean install. Are there any other options to installing from this DVD??

Hi! First off I surely wouldn't be trying ANY disk that didn't have its data backed up as you're just asking for trouble and if the data is important to you then it's Russian Roulette. You mentioned in the name of the disc the word "backup"? That wouldn't be a part of an install disc. Installing on more than one computer unless you're using the family pack would be a violation of the licensing agreement. Tom

  • Optical drive problems after upgrade to Tiger 10.4.10

    I've just had my machine updated to Tiger 10.4.10 after having two new hard drives installed after a hard drive failure. I'm now having issues with burning data for backup purposes.
    I can't burn anything with Mac OS Disc Burner utility, it doesn't seem to recognize blank disc's DVD's or CD's. It keeps telling me to load a disc when one is already in the drive.
    System profiler recognizes CD-R's & DVD-R's when they are in the optical drive
    I can burn with Toast Titanium ver 6.0.3 DVD's & CD's. The burned CD's will mount. The burned DVD's will not mount.
    I have checked the burned DVD's in the optical drive of my iBook G4 Mac OS 10.3.9 and they mount on it fine.
    Movie DVD's will mount & play. Software DVD's will mount and load applications.
    I have cleaned the drive with a cleaning disc.
    The Optical Drive was working fine before the upgrade, so what is the problem?
    I can only assume two problems now!
    1.) the optical drive has a physical malfunction
    2.) there is a software issue between Tiger 10.4.10 & this optical drive (this is my favorite at the moment)
    The upgrade was done by an Apple Authorised Service Provider they say there are no issues with Tiger & the optical drive.
    So any ideas or help would be much appreciated.

    I'm having a similar problem. I bought my G5 with Panther OS on it a few years ago. The DVD drive functioned perfectly back then. Then I upgraded to Tiger this past year which caused the DVD drive to open later..that is, I'd have to hold down the eject button for a good 2 or 3 seconds before it would open or close. Previously it responded instantly. Now what happens more and more is it can't read DVD-ROM disks that it has burned. My imac G4 with Jaguar has no trouble reading the disks but Tiger 10.4.9 and 10.4.10 simply refuse to mount DVD ROM disks that it burned.
    I'm trying to make a duplicate DVD of the offending disk on my single-processor G4 and then put THAT disk into the G5 so it can read the info. Hopefully that will be my work-around.
    It's got to be a software issue and I keep hoping the Apple wiz kids will put out an update to remedy this. Something's fishy with the DVD drive programming.

  • Upgrading to Tiger & HP AIO printer TIP

    I just upgraded from Panther to Tiger, 10.4.3. After reading about all of the issues surrounding HP AIO printer issues and upgrading to Tiger here is what I did and my HP AIO 6110 works perfectly after the upgrade.
    Before upgrading I did a complete clone of my old system to a FW HD. Ran TechToolPro. Deleted all existing HP AIO software. Rebooted my machine. Upgraded to Tiger and then ran Combo 10.4.3 updater. Used Printer Setup to set up the 6110 from the Tiger upgraded drivers. Printer worked just as under Panther with no issues. Installed all the HP 6110 software.
    Scanning and Coping as well as Printing all work perfectly.
    I'm not saying this will work for others but it did work for me.

  • Can only print one copy at a time in AppleWorks since upgrading to Tiger

    Since upgrading to Tiger 10.4.3, (now using version10.4.6) and AppleWorks 6.2.9, I cannot print more than one copy of my document using either of my Epson printers, a R200 and a C86. I did not have this problem with Panther and AW 6.
    Apple techs said to reinstalled AW, did not help. Then did a complete archive and reinstall of Tiger, no help, then created a new preference folder, no help.
    I found by trial and error that my Grammarian spell and grammar program by Linguisoft uses an input method to be active in order to correct AW documents. I sent them an email and their reply was, this is a bug in Mac OS X 10.4.x (all versions as of Nov, 2005) Specifically, if an input method is active, you will be unable to edit the number of copies or page range values in the dialog versions of Print and Page Setup. This is not a problem in the sheet versions of Print and Page Setup.
    Certain older applications still use these dialogs (i.e., AppleWorks) instead of the more appropriate sheet equivalents. To clarify the difference, the sheet versions are "attached" to the actual document you are printing (take a look at, say, TextEdit), while the dialog versions appear modally in front of all document windows in applications that use them.
    I wrote a three page letter to Apple and received a call from them, it seems that for now no upgrades to correct this problem is in the works, so for now I will have to make my corrections to all documents that I am working on, then change the input method in Grammarian and print my copies, then go back and make Grammarian active again.
    Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem or am I the only one?

    Hello DaisyMay,
    You're quite welcome. Very glad to hear it helped!
    Yet I'd like to mention the true ones of merit are the contributors of the original Japanese thread. I've just summarized and translated a bit.
    Regarding why it takes so long to fix this bug/flaw, I suspect that it is because it won't affect the majority of American users who do not use input method at all, and besides, it seemingly affects only Carbon API, that Apple Computer Inc. is liable to neglect lately.
    However, input method is a vital piece in CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) languages, and any other languages that use more than 256 characters, and also quite a few Carbon applications are still in service, so for us (Japanese, e.g.), this bug/flaw is quite unacceptable.
    It's new for me to know a non-CJK program, Grammarian, uses input method. Now I understand you'd see this bug/flaw unacceptable as well!
    At least one of the contributors of Japanese thread said he let Apple Computer Japan know this problem via official telephone support channel. Also other said that Ergosoft Corp., the maker of EGWord, stated that this is a known-issue of OSX10.4 and they can do nothing but wait for Apple to fix it. Ergosoft has been specialized to Macintosh platform since 1984, so it's quite unlikely they had not reported this problem to Apple via developer channel.
    After all, I think Apple knows this problem, whether a bug or a flaw.
    Well, possibly, it might not be sufficient for an end-user to point out the problem via Apple's telephone support channel...
    In such case, you may try this form -
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
    In my humble opinion, they should shortly fix this, and meanwhile they should promptly publish the user-proposed work-around methods as a Knowledge Base article.
    Have beautiful May,

  • Problem with mail after upgrading to tiger...

    When I upgraded the OS in my PowerBook, all the mail messages in my in-box disappeared. Now, the only thing that shows up in each mail is the following, "The message from [Antonio john Doe <[email protected]>] concerning “Stuff” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
    The e-mail is also gone from the earthlink
    server because they wipe all mail out after a few days. Is there a
    way to recover the messages?
    Powermac G5 dual 1.8   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   1.3 Gb ram

    The conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken. Take a look at the following thread to better understand the problem:
    Help! "You need to take this account online in order to download it."
    More specifically, if this is a POP account, the following procedure should allow you to fix the Inbox problem. A similar procedure should allow you to fix other mailboxes that might also be affected:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to fix the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
    3. Create a new folder on the Desktop and name it however you wish (e.g. Inbox Old). It doesn’t need to have an .mbox extension.
    4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/.
    5. Move the files mbox and Incoming_Mail out of INBOX.mbox, into the Inbox Old folder just created on the Desktop. These files contain all the messages that were in the mailbox before the upgrade to Tiger, and maybe even some messages that had been deleted. mbox is the most important. Incoming_Mail may or may not be present.
    6. Move any strangely-named Messages-T0x... folders to the Desktop (not into the Inbox Old folder). These folders are to be deleted after fixing the problem. They are temporary folders created during an import or an indexing process, and Mail should have deleted them when done. Their presence is a clear indication that something didn’t work as expected. If you’ve been using Mail after the conversion and have already tried to fix the problem by rebuilding the mailbox or something like that, they might contain messages that are neither in Messages proper nor in the mbox file, so keep them around until the problem is fixed.
    7. Move everything else within INBOX.mbox, except the Messages folder, to the Trash.
    The result of the above should be that INBOX.mbox contains the proper Messages folder only, and the Inbox Old folder on the Desktop contains the mbox and Incoming_Mail (if it exists) files only. Now, proceed as follows:
    8. Open Mail.
    9. The account’s Inbox should properly display in Mail as many messages as *.emlx files are in ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/. If that’s not the case, select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.
    10. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Other as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the Inbox Old folder that’s on the Desktop.
    As a result of doing the above, some messages may be duplicated now. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may find useful for that.
    Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move the messages anywhere you want and get rid of the imported mailboxes afterwards.
    If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
    You may want to take a look at the following article (also referenced in the thread I mentioned at the beginning of this post) to learn what you might have done before upgrading to minimize the risk of this happening, and what you may do after fixing the problem to avoid similar issues from happening in the future. DON’T do now what the article suggests, though, as that would make things worse in the current situation:
    Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
    Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • Can I upgrade to Tiger on my iBook G4 with a PowerMac G4 Install Disk?

    I am currently running Mac OSX 10.3.9 Panther on my iBook G4 and I want to upgrade to Tiger OSX 10.4. I could possibly upgrade to Leopard, but it may be too much for my system according to Apple's website.
    My father purchased a used copy of Mac OS 10.4 Tiger from eBay and the person told him that it was an original base version of Tiger and would run on any Mac. But when the disk arrived it says that it is for a "PowerMac G4 Software Install and Restore Disk 1 of 1". So I am not sure if this is only designed for the PowerMac desktop computer, or if it can be used safely and 100% compatible on my iBook G4 laptop.
    I took my laptop to the Apple Store and asked the Genius Bar techs who told me that the "firmware" is different on the PowerMac than on my iBook and the disk that I was sent was only for the PowerMac.
    When I read the "read-me" file on the disk, it did not indicate that it was only for a PowerMac only or whether it would work fine on any Mac computer or laptop. So my main question is this: Will this disk work and be compatible with my iBook G4, or was it designed only for the PowerMac?
    Has anyone had any problems with compatibility on an iBook if they used a different computer's OSX 10.4 Tiger install disk?
    If there are problems, where can I find a generic in-the-box version of Tiger or an iBook specific version of Tiger?
    If I install a "used" original version of Tiger am I still eligible for all of the software updates from Apple for OSX 10.4, just like I have been with my current OSX 10.3 Panther?
    Thank you for your help!

    Aaron:
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Computer specific install disks are optimized for the computer to which they are specific and even if you manage to install it without incident, you may end up having issues post installation.
    To install Tiger your computer will need to meet the minimum system requirements for Tiger.
    You will need to purchase the Full Retail version of Tiger.
    Tiger can be purchased from the Apple Store or, on CDs, from AllMac or FastMac. You can also purchase Tiger on eBay if you know what you are looking for. Read all documentation carefully, ask questions of the seller to be sure that you are getting the Full Retail Version. Here are some current offerings on eBay.
    Good luck.

  • Upgraded from TIGER to SNOW LEOPARD

    Hello,
    How can I uprade from TIGER to SNOW LEOPARD? Do I simply use the upgrade snow leopard to do so? Will that create any instability or issues?
    thank you very much.
    Alex

    Yes, you can upgrade from Tiger to Snow by purchasing the SL DVD. Doing so would only create stability problems if you already have problems, so you should be sure you have a clean system before upgrading. See the following:
    System Upgrade and Installation Procedure
    Basic Caveats
    1. Disconnect all peripherals except the original mouse and keyboard.
    2. Quit all applications if this is not an installation from an Installer DVD.
    3. The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation you may have to erase the hard drive and reinstall from scratch.
    4. Once the installation begins do not use the computer in any way except to reply to dialog prompts or to restart when the installation is completed. This is especially critical during the installation stage known as "Optimizing the System."
    System Update Procedure
    A. Repair hard drive and permissions.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.) After DU loads select your OS X volume from the list on the left, click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.2 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X. Note that Disk Warrior will not work on Intel Macs.
    B. Clone your existing system to an external Firewire drive.
    How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    4. Drag the startup or source volume to the Source entry field.
    5. Select the backup or destination volume from the leftside list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Check the box to Erase Destination. Skip this step if you've already formatted the drive.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    C. Decide upon an installation option (This does not apply to Snow Leopard.)
    You have three upgrade options. If you use the Upgrade installation option be sure you have repaired the hard drive and permissions first and made your backup. If you choose the Archive and Install option then you only need to repair the hard drive.
    Neither of the above options will erase the disk. Some of your software may not work with a new system. You will need to upgrade those programs. It would be best to do the upgrades to your software before upgrading to the new system version.
    Personally, I would erase the hard drive and do a fresh install of Snow Leopard then use Migration Assistant to migrate your old Home folder from the backup. This may take some extra time but is less likely to have problems that may be the result of an upgrade installation.

  • Upgrade to Tiger 10.4.6

    Hi,
    I have a Power Mac G4 1.25 DP (FW 800), 2GB RAM running OS X 10.3.9
    Recently I've been having issues with the spinning death wheel displaying all the time. I've posted elsewhere & its been suggested that bad sectors are to blame (from the sound of the HD seeking in a 'loop')
    Last time I tried to boot up, for some reason it's trying to boot in classic (9.2) ?? However it's just erroring and saying 'can't boot Classic from that location' or something along those lines (sorry, at work right now, not in front of Mac) ?
    It's been so frustrating recently I'm ready to do a complete fresh install and see if that helps at all.
    2 things....!
    1)
    While I'm sorting this out, I also want to upgrade to tiger 10.4.6
    2)
    I bought this Mac 2nd hand & it wasn't sold to me with any of the software disks.
    So, exactly what do I need to purchase in order to sucessfully upgrade and perform disk maintenance (diskutil booted from startup CD\DVD so i can 'Repair Disk')
    I went to the Apple store on Regents St to purchase 10.4.6 DVD but they said 'thats just an OS and won't help you' which left me slightly confused. If I buy this, surely I can perform a brand new install \ start diskutil from the DVD??
    They mentioned contacting Apple Care with my serial number & they would send me replacement disks. However, I can't even get onto the machine any more to retrieve this info!!
    I just want to buy what I need to upgrade and safeguard any future issues. Please advise...!
    Cheers
    Dylan
    Apple Power Macintosh G4 1.25 DP (FW 800)   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    You cannot install a new system or even reinstall the old one until you repair or replace your hard drive. If you try upgrading on a bad hard drive you'll end up no better off than you are now.
    The phone number for AppleCare in the UK is (44) 0870 876 0753. Your serial number can be found on the computer.
    If the hard drive has bad sectors and no other physical problem you may be able to restore its use by reformatting as follows:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disk. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. After the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
    You will of course need a bootable OS X Installer Disc to do this, and it will only be successful if the drive is otherwise OK.

  • After upgrading to Tiger, freeze after waking from sleep on PM G4

    My experience with Tiger in the past week as not been great. The reason I upgraded was to get iSync 2.1, so that my Moto E815 phone could be sync'd with my OSX AddresBook and iCal. This wasn't possible with the latest version of Panther.
    So, I upgraded to Tiger 10.4.3, and now my G4 freezes immediately after waking from sleep. After pressing the 'return' key to wake the computer, the G4 sends a signal to wake the monitor, but on top of the screen saver is a black text box which states there was a problem I must press (and hold) the power button to restart the Mac. It's written in four languages.
    When I installed Tiger, I used the 'archive' option.
    My computer is a bit of a FrankenMac: Originally a G4/350 with AGP, upgraded with a Sonnet 1GHz G4 processor card, 1.12GB RAM, a 160GB HDD, an nVidia GeForce3 64MB AGP video card, Samsung DVD/CR-RW drive (Patchburn3) and a Belkin PCI card with 2 additional Firewire ports and 3 additional USB 2.0 ports. When I performed the upgrade, I had the keyboard and mouse plugged into the case USB 1.1 ports, a Logitech Notebook Pro USB camera plugged into the other case USB 1.1 port, and a D-Link BT120 USB->BT adapter plugged into one of the three USB 2.0 ports on the Belkin PCI card.
    When I check the Console logs after the rebooting, I see a kernal panic in the panic.log. Apple has received this a number of times from me in the past week as I keep sending them 'talkback' logs after the fact.
    I also see an error in the system.log which may reveal what is going on:

    I suspect the problem where the USB devices are started, because I had that Bluetooth adapter plugged in at the time of the upgrade. I'm speaking of the lines in the log which start with 'USBF'. The keyboard and mouse are useless when the black screen shows up after waking from sleep.
    I've tried some of the suggestions I've found for the iBook 'wake from sleep' postings on macfixit.com and here - resetting NVRAM and removing a few of the .plist files. This didn't seem to help.
    I would greatly appreciate help in resolving this issue. I've been a Mac owner since the original Macintosh (it's still in my house) and am frustrated that this is the first problem I've encountered.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Thanks. In fact I had bought a new keyboard and mouse (Macally) and sure enough, if I unplug it before it reboots, the CD drive door stays closed and I can boot from a CD! I did not try any of the other stuff. Is there any way to get it to stop this? Why does a USB peripheral cause the CD to eject anyway? Would love to know!

  • Upgrading to Tiger, Logic Pro, Soundtrack Pro, Etc

    Hi,
    Between me and Santa, it's been a really great Mac Christmas but I have some questions that I couldn't really find exact answers for by searching the forums.
    I'm currently running OS 10.3.9 with Logic Express, Garageband (original) and Soundtrack (original). I'm about to upgrade to Tiger and have iLife 05 (with Garageband 2) here with upgrades to both Logic & Soundtrack Pro on the way.
    I've decided to do an erase and install when I upgrade to Tiger just to wipe the slate clean (too many tried and abandoned freewares and demos!), but I'm a little confused about the best way to install all the new audio apps:
    1) Since I'm UPGRADING to Logic Pro and Soundtrack Pro, is it necessary for me to have Logic Express and the original Soundtrack installed before installing the upgrades, or will these install fine just by referencing my original activation codes or whatever?
    2) Would you recommend that I install Garageband 2 from the iLife 05 disc? I know there's a lot of redundancy, but it seems some posts here implied having GB2 installed was necessary for LP to work to its fullest (EXS instruments, Jam Packs etc)...I'm hoping I won't need to install GB2.
    3) Since STP comes with many of the same effects & loops as LP, is there anything I should consider doing to streamline the install or save disc space and avoid too much duplication?
    4) I'm sure I'll need to install the latest Pro Application Support releases. Should I do that after installing LP & STP or before? Does it matter?
    5) Finally, and I suppose this might be more appropriate on a different forum, but while I have you here: this G5 is my main computer for my .Mac account (we have a few other Macs in the house). Do I need to take any steps like deauthorizing or anything to make the transition smooth?
    Thanks for any help, suggestions or recommendations! Looking forward to finally being current....
    ~Knight Berman (presto211)

    Thanks again, Justin. Had some issues...after installing Logic and moving on to the Content disc, the Installer for the Logic Pro Bonus Sounds kept quitting each time I tried to run it. Updated Logic to 7.1.1 and it was able to install, but it took about an hour. When I tried to drag the tutorial folder to my hard drive, it said it would take approximately 33 hours to copy the 500MB file! Weird.
    Also, before updating to 7.1.1, I tried launching Logic and it held for over an hour while Scanning Audio Units on: (19/21) AuAudioFilePlayer. Did a Force Quit on the Auval(?), which was not responding, and Logic opened fine, and has since. Don't know if this might not bode well for the future though.
    Biggest Problem: Looking at the Loop Browser, I'm only seeing Garageband Loops from the drop-down menu. With Express, I could see other Sub-Groups besides GB Loops. I've installed Soundtrack Pro, and I know it's missing those as well because the "Vocal" tab is greyed out and, being sure there are some vocal loops in STP, I dragged the HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro onto the Loop Browser and it seems to have indexed them as at least now the "Vocal" tab has loops in it.
    However, I'm still not seeing "Soundtrack Pro Loops" or anything new in the drop-down menu - which was always handy to access specific loop sets such as ones I installed on my own. I'm just worried that I'm not getting access to the Loops that came with Logic Pro! Any thoughts?
    Thanks so much for your help ~Knight (presto211)

  • Lost messages in inbox when upgrade to Tiger

    I just installed Tiger and lost all the messages in my inbox except the ones that were still on my mail server and could be reloaded into my mailbox. How do I get my lost messages back?

    The conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken. Take a look at the following thread to better understand the problem:
    Help! "You need to take this account online in order to download it."
    In particular, you may want to take a look at the following article (also referenced in that thread) to learn what you might have done before upgrading to minimize the risk of this happening, and what you may do after fixing the problem to avoid similar issues from happening in the future. DON'T do now what the article suggests, though, as that would make things worse in the current situation:
    Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
    More specifically, if this is a POP account, the following procedure should allow you to fix the Inbox problems:
    1. Quit Mail.
    2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to fix the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
    3. Create a new folder on the Desktop and name it however you wish (e.g. Inbox Old). It doesn't need to have an .mbox extension.
    4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/.
    5. Move the files mbox and Incoming_Mail out of INBOX.mbox, into the Inbox Old folder just created on the Desktop. These files contain all the messages that were in the mailbox before the upgrade to Tiger, and maybe even some messages that had been deleted. mbox is the most important. Incoming_Mail may or may not be present.
    6. Move any strangely-named Messages-XXXXXX folder to the Desktop (not into the Inbox Old folder). These folders are to be deleted after fixing the problem. They are temporary folders created during an import or an indexing process, and Mail should have deleted them when done. Their presence is a clear indication that something didn't work as expected. If you've been using Mail after the conversion and have already tried to fix the problem by rebuilding the mailbox or something like that, they might contain messages that are neither in Messages proper nor in the mbox file, so keep them around until the problem is fixed.
    7. Move everything else within INBOX.mbox, except the Messages folder, to the Trash.
    The result of the above should be that INBOX.mbox contains the proper Messages folder only, and the Inbox Old folder on the Desktop contains the mbox and Incoming_Mail (if it exists) files only. Now, proceed as follows:
    8. Open Mail.
    9. The account's Inbox should properly display in Mail as many messages as *.emlx files are in ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/. If that's not the case, select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.
    10. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Other as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the Inbox Old folder that's on the Desktop. Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move to the account's Inbox the messages that Mail failed to convert properly, and delete those that did get through and, hence, are duplicates now.
    The following collection of AppleScripts has a Remove Duplicates script that can be useful for removing duplicate messages:
    http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html
    If all is well and you're not missing anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
    Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.

  • Entourage (2004) creates duplicate inbox messages after upgrade to Tiger

    I recently upgraded to Tiger in order to sync my iphone.
    All works well except incoming mail messages duplicate themselves in my Entourage Inbox.
    Some of the duplicate messages cannot be opened completely and cannot be deleted.
    I unsuccessfully searched Mactopia for a patch.
    I sync with an Exchange server at my office and had no problems with Panther.
    Also I do not get the duplicate emails on my iphone or my MS Outlook Web Mail.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Paul

    I had the same issue. I found that I had two entries under my account settings, which pointed to the same mail server. Once I deleted one of the accouint entries, the problem has been resolved.

  • Upgraded from Tiger - Now no mail

    Please bear with me while I type this. I want to be sure everyone understands what happened and I need to be sure I can explain this right.
    I just recently upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. I did not backup any info from my hard drive prior to upgrading. Yes, I know, I'm an idiot. I lost power to my computer during the upgrade and it corrupted my hard drive. I did have a Windows partition so I was able to install Leopard on there and extract all my important stuff from the Mac partition. To make a long story shorter, I have all my photos, movies, music and documents. I formatted my hard drive to have only one partition and installed Leopard. Everything is working great and I love it. The only problem that I'm having now is that I have tried to get my mail many times but I can't get Apple Mail to connect. My internet works fine and I'm able to access my mail through the web on .Mac.
    Could one of the reasons why this is happening is because I copied the Mail and Mail Downloads directory from my Library from Tiger and put it into the same spot on Leopard?
    Or do I need to just delete all the info from Mail and start from scratch since all of my mail is still on .Mac servers? I'm sorry if this is confusing, I just want to get my mail back instead of having to go through the web browser to get to it.
    Thanks to all that can help.
    -Thasro

    Question has been answered. To solve my problem I needed to log out of .Mac through my system preferences. From there, delete all mail accounts from Mail and close out Mail. Go back into system preferences, log into .Mac and check the sync settings. Then do a manual sync to sync everything to my MacBook Pro. This solved my issue because when I originally set up my sync settings after upgrading to Leopard, it never did sync all of my info. This time around it did.

  • Logic 6 and Tiger Issue

    I just upgraded to tiger, from panther.. I'm still using logic pro 6, and after 3 days of erratic behaviour (long long start ups amongst other dialogue boxes), now it wont start up at all.
    I also use a motu 828 mkII, and have installed the latest tiger drivers for this product, to no avail.
    If anyone wants to know, i really don't think it's compatible with tiger, and although i was going to upgrade anyway as soon as i could, now i have a problem..... do i go back to panther in order to finish my tune? what a waste of time! Shame there wasnt a warning from apple..so i do it for you.

    Nathan Pangburn, "Logic 6 and Tiger Issue" #3, 11:38am Oct 26, 2005 CDT
    Be aware, there is one bug that I know of with Logic Pro 6.4 and 10.4. If you try to change a song's metronome settings, Logic will crash.
    I think that's the only known issue.
    The workaround is to create songs in 10.3 with the desired metronome settings and use them as templates in 10.4.

  • Upgraded to Tiger OS and now color prints all wrong

    I recently replaced my HD and upgraded to Tiger OS. Since then, my color prints have been horrible. My printer/copier is an Epson CX4800 and the color copies it produces are still OK. Trying to print a color print produces a pic with bands of color at the top and bottom borders, incorrect colors in the picture, and a weird type of "halo" effect around the objects within the picture. I have downloaded the newest updates/drivers for my particular printer. I have tried printing different types of files (JPEG, GIF) and get the same results. The printer/copier itself checks out OK (nozzle check, head alignment, etc). Any ideas??
    thanks,

    Theresa, my old Epson 740 did exactly the same thing as you described after updating toTiger 10.4.8. I just chalked it up to the printer being so ancient. Like you I went through all the cleaning rituals. However, I also have an Epson Stylus Photo R220 which survived the update.
    Did you by any chance repair permissions after you updated? (Apparently, this did not work for my ancient Epson.)
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature
    If by chance you did repair permissions, maybe you should contact Epson and/or check out their support site to see if there is some sort an issue w/your model printer & the latest Tiger update.
