personal file sharing (network) + installer crashes + about this mac.

hi,

 

i've problems with

 

1) personal file sharing and

2) all installer-packages after updating

not to mention 3) the about this mac-issue (though applying the new smbios.extension...)

 

after i updated to 10.4.8. (system is working fine except of this, i tried a 10.4.4.-8 combo update already, nothing happend, ati-card: great with the new drivers)

 

some info, maybe someone can help me on this:

1. someone in the household got a macbook since yesterday, so i tried to enable personal file sharing with it. it does not work, not even the itunes-lib is recognised... the thing just jumps back if i look in preferences again after i set the bit.

 

2. no installer-packages work anymore. pacifist helped in most cases, but some software needs to be installed via package. first it simply crashed by closing the window when progress hit the first quarter, after reinstalling everything i though would be spotlight-associated now i get a full crash: need to restart.

 

maybe these two problems could be associated somehow? i searched the forum but none helpful information (networking-errors in 10.4.7. and the floating-around script did not help and ... installation of the script in 10.4.8 could be one reason of all the problems. or my machine / the kernel? i gave up after seeing the beautiful macbook - i just works.

 

would someone please help me?

1) Filesharing - in my signature is a Misc link. Go find the SMB script there.

 

2) Installer - Find the installer in the Utilties folder. Right-click on it and select Get Info. Click the checkbox beside Open using Rosetta

Thank you, Rammjet. BUT:

1) Filesharing - in my signature is a Misc link. Go find the SMB script there.

i tried it already (before, see my post). and it didnt help. as i mentioned, maybe the script is part of the problem.

 

2) Installer - Find the installer in the Utilties folder. Right-click on it and select Get Info. Click the checkbox beside Open using Rosetta

i tried it already (before, see my post). and it didnt help: system keeps crashing totally as if nothing changed.

 

3) about this mac: any news? (tried several things, see my post)

 

Thank you for your help!
