Do you have 10.1 or 10.0. As far as I know there is some problems with the Swedish characters in 10.0 the solution is to use the english keyboard. I'm not sure if you can write ÖÄÅ in the terminal in 10.1 either but the terminal there should have support for unicode keymappings. /Hans Peter

Hi I dunno if this works but you can try it if you like. in the terminal try going to your user data folder. Then write sudo chmod -R 666 * this will give you read write access for all users. from this directory and all the sub directories and files.

As far as I know it's a lot of SCSI devices that doesn't work in OS X. Hopefully it will have better support for devices in 10.1 which arrives on saturday. Peggan :-)

I've tried to ping the DNS, computer on the same subnet and e-mail. Tonight I sent 66788 packets and none of them came through to localhost :-) I'm using a static IP now. With DNS, router address, netmask and IP filled in correctly. I didn't seem to get a domain name like you did when you...

Hi! First of all I want to thank all the nice people for their help. Ok, I tried to write in domainname at the CLI and I just got an empty line as return. So I typed. sudo domainname localdomain and set the domain name. How do you configure the domain? If I ping 127.0.0.1 it's the same...

No, not in MacOS X because in the setup process you have to create an Admin user to be able to use the machine. Root is disabled by default and if you don't have any other user, how would you get into the machine in multiuser mode? Peggan PS. Have you tried Command Q yourself

Ok, I've checked localhost on both /etc/hosts and in the NetInfo Manager and they seems to be there. I have an Apache server on the machine aswell and when I can't ping myself I also couldn't access the webserver. I sit behind a big firewall in the company but I don't have my own firewall...

Hold down Command-S at startup to enter single-user mode at the command prompt, enter the following fsck -y (to check disk) mount -uw / (to mount hard drive as writable) nicl -raw /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb -create /users/root passwd (to enable a...

Hi I have the information you requested below. I didn't run ping that long time. Ping usually works fine just after a reboot but after a while (during the night after a reboot) ping seems so cease functioning. I also pinged www.av.com and that works fine. [localhost:~] peggan% ifconfig lo0...

Hi! I have a pretty strange problem I can't ping localhost or 127.0.0.1. Pinging other computers works fine though. I usually can ping myself directly after a reboot of the system. But I can't connect the problem with any specific program I've opened. It works fine connecting to my ftp...

Hi! I don't understand what's so speciall about the dock, I mean it does it's job and that kind of thing but it's not really advanced is it? Is it the magnification that impresses everyone so much or? Personally i prefer to have magnification off because I think that's easier to work that way...

Yes, it's true that 9.2 will come to the other computers when 10.1 is shipping. /Peggan

The problem is solved now, thanks for all the help. I configured and compiled a new Apache. Changed httpd.conf ServerName variable to localhost and after that I did't get any alerts. The ping was resolved after a restart it wasn't enough to login/logout I'm sorry bothering you.

Excuse me but what is the routing table. I'm kinda new to unix is that a file to edit? I think that the ping problem causes the apache to not work. Since it works sometimes I have checked both PHP and MySQL with apache and it seem to work fine. I can retrieve data from a dB and display it...

I have a strange problem I can't ping localhost or 127.0.0.1 not even as root. I get 100% packet loss. My Apache server does work sometimes but most of the times it just comes up with error 404. I guess that's because localhost doesn't work. I have an internet connection through a network...

If you go into users which kind of system preferences->users do you have an admin user there is should say admin to the right of the login name.

Try to boot from one of the system CD's for 9.1 then choose 9.1 as startupdisk. Run Software Update and update to the latest startup disk.

:confused: Strange thing this. Make sure you have Admin access or else click on the password and log in as an admin user. A good tip is to install 9.1 and X on different partitions. Then if you upgrade to startup disk 9.2.1 you will be able to choose X or 9.1 as startup partition if you press...
