What Is Supposed to Happen After Restart 15 Mins into Installation?

OK, so I determined that "After the first 15 minutes, or so, it will reboot, and then continue the installation."
But that doesn't happen. My MacBook reboots, but there is no evidence that the installation is continuing.
What should I be seeing after this 15-minute-into-the-installation reboot? I see nothing, and my "About this Mac" tells me I still have Mac OS 10.5.8.
I thought the issue might be something to do with my external keyboard, so I detached that; in fact detached all external devices except an external mouse (because I have a trackpad issue). Same result. MacBook restarts 15 minutes into install with no evidence of further installation of Snow Leopard.
Could the failure to install have anything to do with my trackpad issue?
Someone in this forum advised "Hopefully you didn't interrupt it at a critical moment." I don't know what I would be interrupting since no installation seems to be taking place after the 15-mins-in restart.
Anyone know a trick, workaround, or troubleshooting tip for the failure to install I'm experiencing?

Boot up from the DVD and run Disk Utility from the Utilities option, Katharine.
Select "Repair Disk" , let it do its job (its is not a bad idea to run it again if it fixes anything the first time, until you get a completely clean run)
Once that is done, "repair permissions" reboot and try the installation again.
Make sure you have plenty of free space on the HD before the installation, too. When doing an OS installation a good rule of thumb is to make sure you have 25% of your HD free. If not, get a bigger disk, or free up some room. You are going too need it pretty soon anyway if you don't!

What's Supposed to Happen After I rent A Movie?

Have a new Apple TV (Christmas 2011), tested download speed of 5.6 mbs. I browsed for a movie (Alien) entered my iTunes credentials and confirmed my cc info. amd it appeared to have been accepted. Then nothing happened. I'm not sure if there should be some indication it is downloading or not. Also, once it is downloaded, will it be visible from the main Apple TV screen? This is my first foray into movie rental, so I appreciate any advice you can give me. BTW, internet connectivity is OK. I am composing this on the same internet connection I have the ATV connected to.

If you turn the Apple TV off or watch something else, the rental will be deleted from the drive on the Apple TV, it should still remain on the top shelf though.
Try going to settings > general > iTunes store > check for rentals.
If that doesn't help, try restarting.
If your download speed is correct, you should be able to start to watch your rental within a few minutes, if not almost immediately.

What is SUPPOSED to happen to accepted invitations

I sent some invitations from iCal and got an email from one person accepting that invitation. What is supposed to happen to that? Am I supposed to be able to view the invitation in iCal and see that the person has accepted the invitation? That didn't happen ... or at least I can't see anything in iCal to that effect. I do get the email telling me that they have accepted the invitation. I looked at the notifications window but there is nothing there.

You have asked a super question. I, too, have no idea what receiving an iCal evite confirmation is supposed to do. I look to the event, and see that the invited person still has a question mark next to their name. Also, the evite doesn't get sent automatically, I have to open the appointment manually, and then click on the send button. iCal is an interesting program in that it doesn't do what one would expect the program to do automatically... automatically.

What is supposed to happen when a tethered Blackberry Tour receives an incoming call?

I have a blackberry tour on an enterprise system. Can anyone tell me what is supposed to happen when tethered and an incoming call comes in to the phone? My company will soon be getting rid of our aircards, and activating the tethering feature on the blackberrys. We use VPN to connect to the intranet. Also, can I make an outgoing phone call without disconnecting from the internet?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Gruntz,
When you are using the tethering feature on your Blackberry device, the in coming call could interfere with your data connection. Also, when you make an outbound call, it would disconnect from your internet tethering feature. This is because the device would not be able to make and receive calls as its connected to the internet.

What's supposed to happen to SharePoint when the IIS blob cache is full?

Can someone possibly point me at a description of what's supposed to happen to SharePoint if the IIS blob cache directory fills up?
I've seen postings from MS saying that you need to keep the directory 20% bigger than the amount of files you might end up storing in there, but that's clearly not the whole answer.
I ask because we've had a problem today on SP2010 with files disappearing from people's sites as soon as they are uploaded, or being replaced with files of 0 bytes. It seems to be caused by the blob cache directory being full, and SharePoint not making
any attempt to free up space in it.

For me, on Mac, the second (or more) time I open an image from Bridge or from Photoshop's Recent menu, it opens the image in ACR (7.2) a second time and appends a -2 to the file name once opened in Photoshop. Each time the image is opened up again, it adds an appended -x number. I'm pretty sure this is the expected behavior...

I bought a a iTunes song with no money on debit card. What's suppose to happen to my card later??

I bought a iTunes song from ipad but I had no money on my debit card. What's going to happen to my card??

OK. I have had a few of those in the past.
I don't know what will happen. How do you know that you overdraw on the card? Did you get a receipt from Apple via email? I'm not sure how the transaction can go through without the funds being on the card, but I have no clue as to how Apple processes those types of payments.
I realize that you are trying to do the right thing, so short of contacting Apple - I don't know what else to tell you.

Leopard won't install on G5 iMac - nothing happens after restart

I put in the Leopard DVD into my first generation G5 iMac. A Leopard window opens and asks allows me to click on "Install Leopard." I double click and it tells me Leopard wants to restart my computer and has me type in the computer password. I do. The computer restarts and the gray screen comes up with the gray Apple logo/icon in the center of the screen. Nothing happens. The fans start to come on. It's stuck. Tried this 3 times. I have never had an install fail this way. I have to wonder if Leopard is ready for prime time.

I called Apple, in India I think. After going through my serial number (hold the computer upside down in your lap and use a magnifying glass to read the serial number, holding the phone in the other hand) I was asked the most inane questions like "Where did you buy the iMac." I don't remember and had to say "What does it matter where I bought it? I don't remember. Can we please get to the question I called about... this Leopard software I just bought from your company?" So, we got into the problem. Anyway, I was told to restart the iMac with the C down on the keyboard. I am using a wireless keyboard and suspected it wouldn't help... I thought the bluetooth software wouldn't work until the computer had booted... but lo and behold, the "spinning gear" soon appeared and, after that, the rest of the normal Leopard installation. It's going on now. Fingers crossed.

Setting up new user home dir -- what is *supposed* to happen"

Folks:
Could someone tell me what Workgroup Mgr is supposed to do when you tell it to set up new home dir?
Right now it creates the dir, but sets the perms to drwxr-xr-x, owner root, and it's empty.
This means the new user can't do anything with the dir, and I'm fairly certain Wkg Mgr is supposed to have put some files in there?
Any clues appreciated,
Graham

I've been having some trouble with creating home directories on my server, and others are no doubt more expert in this field than I am, but what should be created are the Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, Public, and Sites directories that you expect to see. If you create those (or whatever subset you want) and set the ownership of the directory to the correct user, Library and Desktop will be automatically created when they log in.
In my case, for a while now "Create Home Now" hasn't been working and the home directory is not automatically created when the user logs in. If I set it up manually everything works out, but I'd like to know why this is happening. I can't figure out what's wrong with the share point if that's the problem.

What is supposed to happen if the font for a control on the startup form does not exist on the system?

Say you put a button on a form and dont change the font ie ms san serif, then the app is installed on a system that does not have the font ms san serif installed. Is it supposed to throw an error when the form initializes? Since this happens before any user
code the error can go untrapped in the start up form and crashes to the system.
I discovered it does this if you specify the font in the designer to be "Arial Narrow" and it is not installed. But whats funny is the error is not font does not exist, it is "Arial Narrow" does not support style Regular. Even though
I set the font in the IDE for the control. How can I be setting it with the IDE to something that does not exist for the font I set (Arial Narrow is on the IDE system)?
I have always thought that vb would just use a different font if the control font did not exist without an error. In my case it was a secondary form so the error was trapped. But, I don't see how to trap the error if it is the startup form.

PS
"I meant that you should set the buttons font to something like
MS Sans Serif "
What if ms sans is not on the system? Then you cant do anything.
Maybe I am being picky but just sayin...
I don't suppose you're being picky specifically although I think I got a headache attempting to do the below.
I do think this is a bug though which you should probably report.
However I tried this and it worked fine. Except I had to alter the Form1.Designer.vb file to do this. I tested this. I didn't test without this to see if I would get the exception you received.
I downloaded a Font called Kingsthings Christmas from the second link in my post for links to download fonts. Added that to my systems Fonts and tested the code. Removed that from my systems fonts and tested the code. It worked in both instances.
I suspect that the Font in the Form1.Designer.VB file for the New Font for the TabControl and TreeView would work with the default system font set to use 21.75! and font style regular but if the default system font didn't support both of those then an issue
could occur obviously. So if somebody used Control Panel to set the default system font to something that doesn't support those two things then you will need to alter the code to detect what the default system font can use for those two settings
possibly.

Multifolio app with iTunes Subscription - What is supposed to happen

OK so I have built an iOS multi folio app with iTunes Subscription and downloaded the developer app for testing.
I load and launch the app on my iPad and am presented with:
1. the subscription banner
2. The latest folio with two buttons (Free) and (Subscribe)
3. All other folios in a grid below with a (Free) button.
When I tap either the banner or the (Subscribe) button I see the Purchasing Subscription title appear for a few seconds and then the title reverts to the name of the viewer app.
The Subscribe banner and button are still there. Is that the behaviour I should be expecting? If not what should I expect to happen?
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
Mark

Hi Mark,
this is related to Help needed updating my multi-folio newsstand app for iOS
When testing an iOS app for subscriptions, your should:
- Log out of the App store
- Make sure you are creating a test user in iTunes Connect to be able to test in the SandBox environment (with ipa)
- Open your App and tap the subscription, it will ask you if you want to subscribe and also will ask that you log in with an existing Apple ID (that should be your test account)
- If all is set up properly and working, you will get a confirmation and the banner should go away
As I mentioned, make sure you are referencing the product ID of the subscription itself.

What's supposed to happen when opening a raw file twice?

Let's say I open a .CR2 file through Camera Raw into a document, and edit it a bit. The document name is the raw file name.
Now I go to File - Open... or File - Open Recent - ... menu and choose the same .CR2 file again.
Sometimes I get a new run of Camera Raw leading to the creation of a new document.
Sometimes it just makes my prior document window current.
How's it really supposed to work?
Other users: How does it work for you if you do this?
Personally I'd prefer the first of the two behaviors. If I want to open a new document from the file (implied by my choosing File - Open...) then I'd rather not have to save the document as a different name before opening the .CR2 file again.
It doesn't seem randomly intermittent, per se - if it's decided to be in the "make window current" mode doing it 10 times will yield the same thing - but I haven't noticed what triggers the difference in behavior.
Anyone have any insights as to what's up with this?

OS X will not let me delete .mov files, error says "file in use" but files not in use, still happens after restart

Hi
I have a folder full of .mov files but can't delete any of them, I get a message "File in use" but it isn't. Have managed to delete using Terminal, but that is a pain. New files have the same problem, have tried unlocking them and restarting the computer, but no joy. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello
you may try this
- use little app like Onyx download here
http://www.titanium.free.fr/download.php
- start from an external system hard drive , then navigate to your file to delete it
- by luck if you have a second mac and a firewire cable , have a look at

What is supposed to happen with Junk Emails

Hi, i have just switched from Windows (and i am NEVER GOING BACK), in MS Outlook in Windows, when stuff is marked as Spam/Junk that address is remembered and sent to the Junk Folder when it is received again.
Using the Mac program "MAIL" this doesn't seem to happen, if i mark an email address as junk, it makes no difference when i receive mail from that address again, i still have to mark it as Junk again and again.
In Windows, junk mail could be sent to a Junk/Spam folder, it created a Black List and it tried to remember Junk addresses.
tim

Filtering spam based on the sending address is wasted effort because the address is phony and changes constantly. Mail's junk filter works by doing a sophisticated analysis of the text of the message. Training the filter improves its ability to recognize spam from its contents. The address has nothing to do with it.
Here is a semi-technical description of Mail's Junk Filter: [http://macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2004/05/18/spam_pt2.html]

Sending email from HTMLDB - what happens after submit?

I have read the "How To" document on sending email from HTMLDB but it is very vague on what is suppose to happen after submitting the process. After I submit the process that calls HTMLDB_MAIL.SEND, how do I track down what is suppose to happen? How do I debug it? All it mentions is that the job is stored in a queue somewhere until DBMS_JOB pushes the queue? Which USER_JOBS table am I suppose to see the job in? What is the job suppose to look like? How do I know the email has been sent? How do I check that the mail is posted correctly each time? Where do error messages go if the email is not sent? Where is there doco on changing the SMTP_HOST_ADDRESS and PORT settings?
help
Paul Platt

You can call
HTMLDB_MAIL.PUSH_QUEUE('smtpservername,port);
after sending your mail.Is there an easy way to call HTMLDB_MAIL.PUSH_QUEUE and get it to use the SMTP parameters defined for the HTMLDB installation, rather than having to specify them again in the code.
The DBMS_JOB entry used to push the mail uses:
wwv_flow_platform.get_preference('SMTP_HOST_ADDRESS')
but this is not a public package.
Thanks
Roger
