Your are going to need to convert the DVD into a format that the BB can read. I would use Handbreak for that myself. It is free and has a lot of options. What model BB are you using?

Sounds to me like your shift key is stuck. That would create the symptoms you are showing. Try gently popping the shift key up and seeing if there is any debris under the key.

So what exactly happens when you try to move things off the dock? Do you see any change in the mouse cursor, get an error?

Boot holding down Eject should pop the disk out.

My iMac 24" did the same thing, HD had died and would not allow boot anymore. It was well under a year old. I think the iMac line has heat issues that contribute to hardware failure.

Hey, just a note... I was watching TekZilla and they mentioned something called Apple Jack to fix OSX. One of the things it can do is validate preference files. Don't know if it would help but, try it, can't hurt right?

In that case you'll have to make sure iTunes installs in 'Target Disk' mode (I believe) and that is the drive you want to unmount and do stuff to. Target Disk Mode is definitely want you want to use.

Can the new accounts get to any system preferences?

The command is umount. So... sudo umount /dev/disk0s2 Also, what is Macintosh HD II is it an external hard disk? And when you are doing this you ARE booted from the DVD correct?

I have never used MacFusion myself, but there must be a method. Via what method is it being mounted? What is the protocol being used to share the files?

So when you issued the command to bring back the setup assistant it threw the error at you saying that he drive was read only?

Try using the command "df", that should list all of the actively mounted volumes and where they are mounted. It could be that the mount point remains and can be deleted. Was this a network drive or USB, FireWire, etc.?

I don't think so, but an error like that could have so many causes, I just don't know myself.

Oh excellent idea, I didn't consider how to do that.

Are you sure Apache is actually knowing to execute the PHP code and send the results to the client?

I would have to agree with you there, I haven't seen it fix anything yet either. I honestly don't think permissions get fouled up all that often.

That does present issues. I think it is possible that you may need to perform a reinstall of OS X. I'm not sure how the system got into such a state. You've tried scanning the disk from the DVD using Disk Utility is that correct?

I would format the player as a drive. I assume it comes up in Finder as a drive? Well, I say open up disk utility and format it as a DOS FAT device. This should wipe everything out and the MP3 player should be able to rebuild its basic file structure. Of course, you should be aware that this...

A quick read online seems to suggest that HP simply needs to update its drivers for the OCR. That leaves you and many others out in the cold. I found a series of forum entries about this issue here... Other than that, you may have to look for a 3rd party solution to take the image data from...

Well, you've got me on that one. I have to admit that shoddy programming and particularly Adobe will cause problems to get into the system. I don't agree, however, about rebooting on a regular basis. Most of the time logging out like once every few weeks is a good idea though - mostly because...
