There's a lot of problems listed, and not a lot of details, so I'd probably suggest ensuring that you're running the latest version of 10.5 (10.5.5) and trying again. You may also want to open up the Console app in /Applications/Utilities to see if anything interesting is being reported there.</div><div><br></div><div>You mention that the symptoms started when trying Adobe's updater, so it possible, it might be worth trying things without having run Adobe's updater. You didn't mention how to create a machine (e.g., from install discs, from an SOE image, etc), so perhaps there was a problem in the steps taken there?</div><div><br></div><div><div>One thing to keep in mind is that the issues do appear to be network related:</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>- being unable to find adobe's server<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>- unable to connect to print server<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>- file already in use or left open - unsure whether this is network related but could be if you're running network home directories, etc...</div><div><br></div></div><div>If none of the above heads you towards a resolution, perhaps you should start with a vanilla 10.5 system, do the Apple software updates, and then start testing each of the areas that aren't working at each stage as you add/change the system to work for you. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Mark</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On 13/10/2008, at 11:01 AM, Allen Barry wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div> <font size="4"><font face="Lucida Grande"><span style="font-size:11pt">Is only me or is there an issues here?<br> <br> 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..<br> <br> Next, we use a print server, the students are required to use a swipe card to pay for their printing.
