OS X V10.7 Lion :: Error - It Is Not Recommended To Terminate The Process
May 24, 2012
I have followed the appropiate steps to transfer data from a PC to my iMac (with Migration Assistant). The transfer has been going on for 2 days now and I'm getting frustrated with the long wait. I think I must have asked to transfer too much data but when I try to cancel the transfer, I get a message saying that it is not recommended to terminate the process. What happens if I cancel the transfer now, despite the recommendation not to? Will either or both my computers suffer irreparable damage? Will I loose the data in my PC? Will I not be able to try again?
I wanted to do a clean install of Lion and change the name of my disc so I booted in Recovery Mode and erased my disc. When I install lion, it goes through everything and I wait the full 2 hours or so for it to download and install but right at the very end it says an error occurred while installing the mac os x and then I get the rainbow pinwheel and am required to shut down my mac by holding the power button. I am currently booted from an external hard drive as this is my only connection to the internet. I really want to get Lion to work on my internal drive. I just partitioned out my internal into 2 partitions (I read something about that?) and I'm going to give the install another go.
This is left over from a WD backup process that I deleted. Keeps trying to run, but can't find the file. How do I stop launchd from trying to run it.4/21/09 8:28:28 AM com.apple.launchd[1] (com.memeo.WDMemeod[404]) posix_spawnp("/Library/Application Support/Memeo/WD Anywhere Backup/Daemons/WDMemeod", ...): No such file or directory
I have an alu iMac with a 500GB HDD. There is about 200GB free. Every time I run the Bootcamp Assistant, choose a Windows partition (doesn't matter what size), it sits with the progress bar spinning for ages before it gives me the error "Disk could not be partitioned as some files cannot be moved. Please reformat the disk and try again". There is no way I can back the disk up, reformat, reinstall and re-update everything. No other apps are running when I run the Bootcamp Assistant.
All of a sudden I am getting an error message when printing to an HP 1320 N. I am using Mac OS X 10.4.11 The error message is "The process "hppostprocessing" terminated unexpectedly on signal 5"
I have reinstalled the drivers. Reset the printing Queue. It was working fine two days ago, then we had a loose network cable and now, everyone in the office can print (cable now intact) but me.
I just downloaded and installed OS X Lion, and I'm loving it so far.However, I've seen that Mountain Lion will have some new features when it comes to social apps (what I call the ones that combine twitter, facebook, rss readers and so on). I'm currently using Socialite, that combines all those three, but it has a few issues I don't particularly like. Plus, I'm using Adium for a msn client. I'm also thinking about downloading that beta version of "Messages" that will be released on Mountain Lion.
My PPPoE is set to "Connect automatically when needed", and my login items include Dropbox. Therefore my MBP automatically tries to connect to PPPoE every time when it wakes up from sleep. However, most of the time the connection would fail, staying in the "Connecting..." status forever; no internet available. To terminate this awkward status I clicked "Disconnect", then it just switched to "Disconnecting…" and stayed there forever, not allowing me to reconnect. The problem can be solved only by rebooting the computer, and can be avoided if I disable "Connect automatically when needed" (manual connection always works).
If I want to have "Connect automatically when needed" enabled, how do I force terminate and retry the connection everytiwhen it fails?
I completely rebuilt an old G4 Power Mac: Upgraded the system firmware. The problem is that applications like Itunes, Safari, etc, crash, they "Terminate Unexpectedly" after 5 mins or so. I have removed all PCI cards except the ATI Rage 128 Video card and it still happens. So, I have three thoughts:
1) The programs in 10.5 were written to run on Intel, and there is no hope. 2) Some piece of hardware in the G4 is causing the crashing. 3) The Rage 128 is the only original piece of hardware left....could the Rage firmware be causing the problem?
I don't have another MAC video card to try. Is there a way to upgrade the firmware in the Rage 128? I looked all over the net but could not find any.
I have a Mac Pro with several raid array and single drives attached (1x Wiebetech RTX600 Raid 5 through SCSI; 1x CalDigit HDElement Raid 5 through miniSAS; 4x internal drives).Unfortunately, due to various reasons (electricity outtage and software crashes), I'm experiencing system crashes and need to hard re-start the system. Upon restart, I am able to boot back into Mac OS X, but sometimes one, or both of the raid arrays will not mount.However, after a period of 0.5 - 2 hours, the array would magically re-appear again. Sometimes this might even happen to internal drives that I had mounted inside the chassis of the Mac Pro.
I am wondering if anyone knows of a good osx based alternative to Process Explorer on windows - what I'd like to be able to do is graph CPU and memory for a specific process and ideally see what network connections a specific process has open. atMonitor seems to do this pretty well generally, but not for specific processes (this is for monitoring a multiplayer flash game).
mds is using 4.7GB of real & 6.7GB of virtual memory and using ~ 15% of CPU. The Spotlight icon does not indicate that it's indexing. I have added multiple folders and drives to the Privacy tab in Spotlight prefs. I disabled Alfred & Hazel and that didn't change anything.
I upgraded to Lion this past fall and haven't had problems until recently, but now Lion freezes everytime I try to save a file in CS5.5. Is anyone else having this problem or has found a way to resolve it? Do I need to reinstall Snow Leopard?
I have a Lyon Server and I see on the system log every 10 seconds a crash of a process I cannot (yet) identify.I would like to upload a log but I do not see any upload possibility - so I pasted this here below. Furthermore the computer does not witch into the sleep mode.. [code]

I just got my iMac today and started the migration process, and I'm wondering how you do this safely. I decided that I would rather do this process overnight so I can start using my Mac right now.
On a new (June 2012) MacBook Pro running OSX 10.7.4 I am seeing a process called "unzip" in the Activity Monitor. It pops about every 5 seconds and is using anywhere from 5%-35% of the CPU and then goes away, then comes right back.I am having some system performance issues and I am wondering if this is the culprit.
The CPU process has snowballed to the point that selecting a finder window is unreasonable . Safari is slow to absurdity , after emptying caches . Firefox & Camino are usable , so wildly better . I have rebooted , rebooted fsck - fy , rebooted CMD r , executed permission and file checks , repairs with no stated repairs or issues
The disc can’t be burned because an unexpected error occurred (error code 0x8002006E). I keeep getting this when I try to burn my daughters wedding pic to a dvd.
When trying to upgrade from snow leopard to Lion, I get the message "An error occurred while preparing the installation.Try running the application again."I am installing on a raid drive,which is supposedly ok.
I keep getting "Open error 18446744073709551594: “Unknown error: -22”" when trying to repair disk permissions. When I boot in recovery mode and try to repair the disk I get the message that the disk can't be repaired that I should back up my files and reformat. Since I hace been hearing about the Flashback trojan I am not sure if it is because my Mac is infected or simply because I somehow messed up with my HD. Any suggestions on how to proceed? Will it be any good to reinstall Lion? Is there any way of avoiding reformatting?
I wanted to delete a file in my dekstop, but i can't delete it.. It pops out a message like this "The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8072)."I have used "rm -rf" this kind of sudo, but it doesn't help. I can't even rename it also.
I know this issue is kind of old, but there are so many flavors of it, that it is hard to find exact match. I've been having problems with single account, and it happens that this account has admin rights. Emails get pulled/deleted from user's mailbox within 10 secs after arrival. There are no other devices that may be pulling those emails, however, I've noticed something strange in the logs:
I don't know if this event is normal to run on server itself, but seems it runs only for this one account that I'm having problems with. There is no imap client setup on that server, and based on my time stamps observations I'm pretty much convinced that's what's deleting my emails.
Had my Itunes hacked today and was just looking through my activity monitor for key-loggers and I found "Isboxd" which I can't find online so I just wanted to see what it was just in case before I deleted it.

I am trying to run software update on my computer because iTunes keeps telling me there is an update available, however, when software update runs it says that my computer is upto date.
I have also tried to download the latest version of iTunes from Apple's website. When I try to install it comes up with this error: "An error occurred while evaluating javascript for the package"
