Upgraded too many times???
i have recently upgraded my itunes to version 6 or whatever is the latest. after i had done this i decided to upgrade the software on the computer using the 'software update' option. little did i know, the updater updated my itunes. this is a second update, but two different ways. my question is, is it possible to update a program too many times and it getting corrupted or doing too many things? and when a program is updated where does the old version go? does it get stored or thrown out (i am concerned that if the old versions are stored that it would just take up space)?
When Software Update runs, it will only offer newer versions of installed software.
This normally does not corrupt the system or applications.
Sometimes applications are updated and sometimes completely replaced.
Old files are always deleted, so they don't take precious HD space.
Did you encounter problems with the iTunes update?
It's a good habit to always run Disk Utility and perform a 'Repair Disk Permissions' before and after installing/updating software.
This routine maintenance prevents most troubles.

Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP HELP!!
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I installed 2.3 upgrade,
installer folder is in harddrive but application will not open or replace 2.0 as it says it "should". When I attempt to it just reinstalls the installer, never the functioning application. I have tried too many times now. Always same response. WOuld love to upgrade ( and purge all the alias 2.3 off hardrive!when I went to the library folder there was no receipts only
com.adobe.Reader whihc included install.log
so I guess that means something is missing?
If above still doesn't resolve problem - go to the folder named
"Receipts" in the Mac OS X Library folder (i.e. the main Library
not you Users Library) and delete the file named Adobe Photoshop
Lightroom 2.pkg

Says I tried to log onto AIM too many times.
I just upgraded my wife's G4 iBook to Leopard and am trying to get the iChat AV to work. I am using a USB cam with iChatUSB and Macam and the camera is working fine. I can get the camera to work over Bonjour to my G5 iMac (also just upgraded to leopard and also using a USB camera with the same set-up). When she tries to do a video or text chat over her AIM account we get an error message saying that she has tried to log on too many times in a short period and to try back later.
Just to see if her account was locked I wen to the AIM web site and can log in with her ID and password with no problems.
I have waited over an hour and we are still getting the message. Any suggestions on how to unlock this?
Thanks,
DavidI may have found a fix:
When I went to my ichat pref. I found one difference between the account i was using and the other account I tried. In the sever settings section it lists this for the server slogin.oscar.aol.com the account i was trying to log onto didnt have the first "s" and the SSl box wasn't checked. I tried adding the "s" and checking the box and it fixed things. -
Have I removed and re-installed iMovie too many times?
iMovie09 won't show anything in my Preview Browser when I upload a video clip or a still image. Could it be that I've installed it too many times on my computer? It worked orginally when I installed it and used it with an Aperture demo, but when I tried to use it with iPhoto, it wouldn't work. So I removed Aperture and iMovie and re-installed iMovie but it didn't work then and hasn't after two more removals and re-installations. Could I have used up the number of times I can install iMovie using a 5-time "Family Pack"? When I install the iLife09 disk, iMovie and iPhoto are greyed out and cannot be selected.
Thanks for the help.I took my computer into the Genius Bar today and three guys couldn't figure out why iMovie wouldn't show me any previews. So I brought it home, backed it up again and got ready to erase the hard drive and start over. But first I decided to just reinstall SnowLeopard and upgrade it to v. 10.6.3 v1.1 and then did a full Software Update after that, and guess what. iMovie now works the way it's supposed to. It didn't matter how many times I'd reinstalled iMovie and upgraded iMovie. It was a OSX system problem. Take heart, all you SnowLeopard users.

I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!

My son put a passcode on his IPOD TOUCH and couldnt remember it and entered it too many times. Now it has disabled the Ipod and says please connect to ITunes and ITunes will not connect to it because it has been disabled, I have already spoke to an Apple representative and did exactly what they told me to do to help reset the Ipod but that didnt work. So I am trying to figure out how we can get back into his IPod even if we have to factory reset it because nothing is working, not their instructions or the internet instructions for reseting it.

A function in a subquery is call too many times.
Dear all,
I'm struggling to understand why a function in a subquery is called too many times.
Let me explain with an example:
create or replace function all_emp (v_deptno in number)
return varchar2
as
v_all_emp varchar2(2000);
begin
dbms_output.put_line ('function called');
for i in (select * from emp where deptno = v_deptno) loop
v_all_emp := v_all_emp || i.ename || '; ';
end loop;
return v_all_emp;
end;
-- running just the subquery, calls the function all_emp only 4 times (once for each row in table dept)
select
d.deptno,
d.dname,
all_emp(d.deptno) f_all_emp
from dept d;
-- running the whole query, using regexp to split the value of f_all_emp into separate fields, causes that function all_emp is called 28 times, thus 6 times for each row!!
select tmp.*,
regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,1) emp1,
regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,3) emp2,
regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,5) emp3,
regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,7) emp4,
regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,9) emp5,
regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,11) emp6
from
(select
d.deptno,
d.dname,
all_emp(d.deptno) f_all_emp
from dept d) tmp
;I don't understand why Oracle is calling my function 28 times in this example, 4 times should be sufficient.
Is there a way to force that the subquery is materialized first?
Little background:
Above function / query is of course a simple example.
Actually I have pretty complex function, embedding in a subquery.
The subquery is already slow (2 min to run), but when I want to split the result of the funciton in multiple (approx 20) fields it's over an hour due to above described behaviour.Optimizer merges in-line view and query results in:
select d.deptno,
d.dname,
all_emp(d.deptno) f_all_emp
regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,1) emp1,
regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,3) emp2,
regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,5) emp3,
regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,7) emp4,
regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,9) emp5,
regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,11) emp6
from dept d

My daughter has entered the wrong passcode too many times on her iPOD Touch, it is now disabled. When I connect to iTunes, it will not let me go any further until I enter the correct passcode. I no longer get the option to do this, all I get is iPOD disabled. Help Please
Restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

So everytime I watch a movie or listen to music when I use my earphones. A song keeps playing by itself and Siri activates by itself without me even touching it. So I deactivated Siri. And now it's the voice control that keeps coming on. I don't know if my phone is haunted, or there's something wrong with my earphones/earphone socket/jack (or whatever you call where you put it in the earphones), or is it just because I dropped my phone too many times. And I don't want to reset my phone if that's what I have to do. By the way I have an iPhone 4s
If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
