Dear all,
What does this sound like?
Powered up the iMac G4 733 the other day, blinking folder icon and no
joy. Currently running 10.2.8. Ultimately had to reinstall from the
discs (10.2).
Tried several times to download/update 10.2.8 including (as the error
message suggested) downloading to desktop and installing from there,
but even that failed. Double clicking the 10.2.8 updater pkg ran the
Installer but brought up no windows so the app is open and doing
nothing.
Picking "open" and selecting the pkg, brought up a window titled 10.2.8
installer, but the buttons for "ok" and "cancel" were inactive and had
no text (needless to say couldn't install).
Tried a total of 3 copies of the installer app (from previous system
folders), none worked.
Tried to reinstall Epson printer drivers from the CD and the installer
worked (only when selecting Open... from the menu) and got through it
as far as "click Install to install the software..." and then the
buttons wouldn't work.
Have: Repaired permissions (twice)
Repaired HDD (one minor error - repaired)
What am I missing? Much gratefulness for any helpings -
David
