[UniMacTech] OS X 10.5 issues

[Derek Fonnie]

Hi Allen,

 

Remove the Adobe Updater from Applications/Utilities

Remove Adobe Updater prefs files from /Library/Application Support

Clean Install of Mac OS 10.5 and install the 10.5.5 Combo Updater in
Safe mode

Run Software Update and apply all available Apple updates.

Zap the PRAM and verify and repair permissions.

 

With regards,

 

Derek

Is only me or is there an issues here?

The symptoms started when we tried Adobe's updater using OS X 10.5 and
the updater works - looking for the server but with no results, just
keeps looking..

Next, we use a print server, the students are required to use a swipe
card to pay for their printing. Print jobs cannot get to the print
server: "it is busy".

And, I use an application: Photo to Movie, a beta  version of the
product allows, though the software, to open an image in an external
editor, Photoshop in this case, fix the problem and save the file back
to Photo to Movie but Photoshop gives an error: "Could not save "the
file" because the file is already in use or was left open."

The object of all of this is: these problems are not happening using the
same computers running OS X 10.4!

Am I Robinson Crusoe? OR are there issues with OS X 10.5 ( forget the
cats I cannot tell one from another)

Thank you for reading this,

Allen
