What problems re-installing OS

I may have to reinstall my OS. What problems does this cause - i.e what will be deleted from my mac?

Paul:
Re-installation is the ultimate invasive remedy and should be considered an avenue of last resort. It is preferable to try to resolve any issues you have before resorting to re-installing the OS.
That said, when you boot from the install CD you have different options. Only Archive and Install can preserve your User Folder, your settings, and your third party applications which are in your Applications Folder. However, you should have a reliable backup of everything on your HDD you cannot afford to lose, as something can go wrong and you can lose it all, even with Archive and Install
Good luck.

Try what klaush67354338 suggests. I had the same problem and his workaround worked perfectly for me.

What problems might I encounter if I install Photoshop 10 on my Macbook Pro?

What problems might I encounter if I install Adobe Photshop 10 on my Macbook Pro?

When my wife had an iBook, it also had to have the logic board replaced (under warranty) but that was due to a fracture in the logic board caused by holding the iBook from one corner with a single hand. Holding/carrying iBooks, PowerBooks, MacBooks and MacBook Pros in this manner is never a good idea as it can fracture the logic board (as was the case with my wife's iBook). Fortunately my 12" PB (nor any of my other notebooks) has never been handled in such a way, and never will be. Therefore it has never suffered a logic board failure.
The lower RAM slot failure cannot afflict the 12" PB as it only has one RAM slot.
Overall the 12" PB seems to have avoided many of the ailments that have plagued other notebooks in Apple's product range. If you do purchase a 12" PB then I would recommend that you get as late a model as possible. One problem I tend to notice more is the failure of 60GB Toshiba hard drives in rev. C (ie. 1.33GHz) models, so beware or look out for PBs with original 60GB Toshiba drives.

Problem with installing and uninstalling applicati...

hi all,
I have a problem with installing or uninstalling apps on 808. When i try to install an application through Nokia suite or when trying to run the application file from the phone's memory the screen freezes and becomes unresponsive but the 3 phone buttons work just fine. I have to shut down the phone and the screen becomes responsive again. Anything available to help me wiith this situations as I cannot use any of the apps I have. Any help much appreciated.
Regards
Alex

You are not alone. Im also having the same issue because we do alot of install and uninstall apps. This is the bad point of symbian. But I tired to install the latest FP2 it will be slightly abit smoother now. So you have the latest version now but did you tired to restore any backup yet? It might be the setting on when you restore that affect it. The feezing should be shorten on FP2 but it will still remain there depending on the type of apps from what I experience.
I hope they will provide multiple function to uninstall apps since it will go through a long process to uninstall apps 1 by 1.
Reason is because some apps will go through process like preparing install, process install, finalising install which take away your control for that few seconds or a minute instead runnning in background mode. Its not convenient to uninstall more apps.

Problem with installing iTunes

So these are my problems with installing iTunes.
At first it was :
A required iTunes component is not installed.Please repair or reinstall iTunes (-45019)
Then it got worse as it would not even open and these would appear:
The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
and this would appear:
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.
Error 7 (Windows error 126)
I reinstalled maybe about 5 times or more...
If I thought I solved the above problem, this would appear:
iTunesHelper.exe is not installed on my computer.
I seen other people comment that you should unistall and restart the computer and install the setup again, but it does not work..
And others would say to repair the AAS or iTunes etc..
And after trying all these it does not work???
What else works?

I also tried repairing the Microsoft NET.

Problem with Installing the Oracle8i PO into Windows ME

I think I have the same problem as some of you had. Recently, I bought the Oracle Book and it has 3 discs: 1 for Oracle Developer 6 for Win 95 or 98, 1 for Oracle 8i PO (release 8.1.5) for Win 95, also 1 for Win 98.
My computer had no problem when I installed the Or. Developer. However, my computer won't allow me to install the Oracle 8i PO Win 98 disc. Instead of that, I have no problem of installing the Oracle 8i PO Win 95 disc. After I installed the Win 95 disc with all correct configuration according to the instructions, I can not CONNECT to the database. So, is this mean the Windows ME is compatible with the Win 95 disc? Or my computer is "screw up"? Because I know Win Me is very much the same as Win 98. If I installed the Win 98 disc, it should be ok. Anyway, I installed the Win 95 disc successful, but can not CONNECT.
So if anyone can help me out, or need a specific error message, I will post up next time. For now, I think I already gave you guys a "head-ache"... sorry.... Thanks all! Wait for your helps guys!

What drivers are you attempting to install?

Problem with Installing Nokia Ovi Store in E51

I am having problem with installing nokia Ovi store in my E51. Whenever I try to download Ovi store from my E51, it shows a error message that the component is built in and cannot be installed. I dont know wat to do now. Can anyone please give me some advice. Thanks in advance.

Hi there!
This means that the Ovi Store is currently installed in your E52 phone, what I can suggest is try checking under Application Manager > Installed Application, check if the Ovi Store is there. If you can't see it, try to perform the soft reset (press *#7780# on the main screen of the phone and it will prompt you restore all original phone settings? phone will restart. Press YES and it will ask you for the lock code 12345.) If anything else please reply to this message.
Hope tis' Help!

Problem with installing CUCM on MCS-7816-I5

Hi to all.
I have a problem with installing CUCM 8.6.1 on new MCS-7816-I5 (IBM) hardware. The problem is that installation loops in restart after upgrading MCS firmware. Actualy, installation does not sucessfully upgrade firmware, so every time it detects old firmware and trying to upgrade it.

Hi Sinisa,
It almost sounds like this bug;
CSCtn81201
Incorrect "Hardware Configuration Error" due to hardware setup errors
Symptom:
Refresh upgrade stops with IMM device detection, and then server being reported as unsupported
Conditions:
in-band USB interface was disabled, which is configurable via IBM system X or IMM (browser) interfaces.
Workaround:
change the in-band usb interface settings to enabled.

A lot of problems after installing Windows XP using Boot Camp on a Mac Book

I have been having a lot of problems after installing Windows XP Home Edition (2002).
For one, after installing Windows using Boot Camp with Mac OS X 10.5.1, I opened Windows on my Mac Book, inserted the Mac OS X Disk 1 as in the instructions and got the message: +"This package requires a newer version of the Windows installer. Do you want to update the version of the Windows Installer on your system?"+ When I clicked Yes (I had NO idea what it meant at the time), I got the message: "The required resource 'UPDATE' is missing" and the Installer quit.
How do I fix this problem?
Another problem I have is that there is no sound on the Windows XP, yet it works perfectly on Mac OS X. Is there any way to fix this problem?
A third problem I have is that I can't wirelessly connect to the internet using Window XP, yet I can on Mac OS X. I have no idea on how to fix this, and it's really messing with me. D:<
D: There are way too many problems, and I have a feeling there will be a lot more later on. Help....

---I'm moving this topic to the Boot Camp forums.

Probleme to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.1

Hi,
I have some problem to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.1.
I log on a non root user and launch "./runInstaller" but nothing happens. It's only written "please wait"...
I see on the Oracle site that I must use glibc 2.1 but only if Oracle is already installed? So if you could give me some indications?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have also the same problem : when I launch the program "./runInstaller", nothing appears.
However, I thought I found a good solution on a forum, but it doesn't run.
The explication is given at the following address :
http://colalug.org/ml-archive/0210/msg00051.html
The only point where I'm not sure is when it's said to use a specific library in the "LINUX STUFF" section. They are using glibc2.1 and I'm using glibc2.3.
I have also changed the "ASSUME_KERNEL" variable to the version of my kernel, that's 2.4.21.
What are your suggestions ?
Thanks to give me an answer.
