OS 10.4.4 & Disk Warrior

Feedback Type:  Commentary

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 6-12 months

Recommend Product: YES

Disk Warrior (DW) has long been one of the most reliable and useful utilities on my systems. Unfortunately, OS 10.4.4 seems to have caused DW a case of dyspepsia.

Any attempt to run DW *from* a volume running on 10.4.4 (and I have three of them) causes DW either to hang or crash.

DW can still be run successfully *from* a volume running 10.4.3--even *on* a volume running 10.4.4

Other than that, 10.4.4 seems fine.

OS 10.4.4 & Disk Warrior - jhAlmo

I'm able to run the app with 10.4.4 on all of my systems. It doesn't work flawlessy though, ubruptly quitting after writing the new directory in my case. The new directory was fine when running a second check on the disk, so nothing seemingly got corrupted.

Same problem here. Powerbook running 10.4.4 can’t boot from the 3.0.3 CD.

OS 10.4.4 & Disk Warrior - PQXYZ33

It turns out that the problem that I was experiencing with what I thought was an incompatibility between OS 10.4.4 & DW was instead an incompatibility between QuickTime 7.0.4 (which I had also installed along with OS 10.4.4) and DW. Apple is obviously aware of problems with QuickTime 7.0.4 and has made available a QT 7.0.4 uninstaller/QT 7.0.1 reinstaller on their website. THAT solves the problem that I was having.
