HT204319 I have a Power mac G4 and I'm trying to upgrade it so I can transfer it to a new Imac

I just purchaseda new Imac and am trying to transfer data from my old PowerMac G4 that has ssytem 10.5.8
When following the prompts from the new Imac it asked me to open Migration assistant which I did.
The new computer found the old but there was a yellow triangle with an excamation point in it, I clicked that and it said I needed to update the old computer to a newer version.
That's where I'm stuck.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5872 says
Migration Assistant in Mavericks is compatible with OS X Snow Leopard v10.6.8 or later. If you are migrating from an earlier version of OS X, update your older computer first, or manually copy your data from one computer to another.
You cannot upgrade your Mac to 10.6.8 so you will have to transfer the data manually as indicated in the linked page.

I have a ipod touch gen 2 and I am trying to get airplay to work with my pioneer Elite VSX receiver.

I have a gen 2 IPOD touch with the current operating system (4.2.1). As well I have a Pioneer A/V Elite series VSX 52 that is airplay ready. On my ipod touch there is no airplay icon(s) with the music feature. I am trying to make this work but have no results. If there is a download that I need to enable to have this function work.
Let me know

There are no setting on the iPod. Unlike the iPad wich morrors the iPad display, TV out on an iPod only displays TV out on apps that support TV out. The Video app is one such app.
Is that you problem?
Otherwise:
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

I have a power mac G5 and want to play sims 3 on it.

I have a power mac G5 and want to play sims 3 on it. When I click on the disk from the desktop it says "you can not open the application the sims 3 installer, because its not supported on this architecture." How can I fix and or resolve this issue? Thanks in advance! Connor

Sorry, but The Sims 3 require an Intel CPU Mac running OS X Leopard 10.5.7 or greater.
Your G5 is IBM PowerPC Mac and therefore will not run on that hardware architecture.
No workarounds. You need a newer Intel Mac to play this version of The Sims.
Sorry,

What is better Mac Mini or Mac Pro and 4K 40" screen or iMac 5K for work with Exel

I am working on Macbook pro retina for around 16 hours a day, it is ok but the screen is to small. I am opening about 25 - 30 EXCEL windows, 20 - 25 safari windows at the same time. Excel windows are small, they only show 40 rows and S column Now I am considering buying iMac 5k ( but the screen is only 27", however a very high resolution but I think that fonts and digits displayed may be too small ). I am also considering Mac Mini or Pro with 40" 4K TV ( 4k computer monitors are 27 - 31" , so better idea would be purchasing iMac 5k ) . The problem is that 40 - 42" TV don't have Display Port ( I can't find it anywhere )
Please help me to choose what would suit my needs better. I need large screen to work comfortably with an Excel sheets. What is better? Mac Mini or Mac Pro and 4K 40" screen or iMac 5K for work with Excel ?. The other problem I have is that when I spend 16 hours at work with retina macbook , my eyes are ok. Using the 30'' Dell screen 2560/1440 my eyes are tired after 2 hours.
Thanks for your help on advance
Best regards
David

Currently you can only get 4 K at 30 Hz via HDMI. Some users have reported jerky curser movement because of the 30 Hz.
I would go for the 5K iMac. You can add a second screen at 4K.
FaceTime HD camera
Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 3840 by 2160 pixels on an external display
Support for extended desktop and video mirroring modes
The Mac Mini supports:
Support for up to two displays at 2560 by 1600 pixels, both at millions of colors
Thunderbolt digital video output
Native Mini DisplayPort output
DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter (sold separately)

The 2013 Mac Pro can use three and more displays:
Mac Pro (Late 2013): Using multiple displays - Apple Support
I would go for multiple screens

Hi I have a Lexmark all in one printer how do I get it to work with my ipad mini

Hi I have a Lexmark all in one printer how do I get it to work with my mini ipad

It depends upon the model. It's wifi-enabled ? And is it listed on this page as supporting AirPrint : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 ?
If not then do Lexmark have their own app in your country's store that supports that model ? If they don't then there are a number of third-party printer apps such as Print n Share and PrintCentral Pro which might work with it.

HT4437 The airplay on my i pad works with music and pictures but I cannot get it to work with safari and mirroring. Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong? Thanks!!

The airplay on my i pad works with music and pictures but I cannot get it to work with safari and mirroring. Can someone help me to get things working? Thanks!

As an IT person, I can put my hands up to the same difficulty. Then on double clicking on Home button, find AirTV symbol amongst Music control
Solved my problem having spent hours looking for a complicated answer. Well done Apple for hiding it so well.

I HAVE A POWER MAC G5 AND IT WONT POWER UP.

I have a Power Mac G5 (late 2005). It will not power up.I Have already replaced the PRAM battery and tried hitting the SMU button. Nothing.

Pull the plug from the wall receptacle (the wall receptacle works, right?).
Press the power button (This is to drain builtup charge).
Replug the power cord to the wall receptacle.
Do you hear any clicks?
Press the power button. Still dead?
If you hear two clicks after reconnecting power, the PSU is likely dead.
Using a volt ohm meter (multimeter) you can test the PSU:

Trying to get 3d to work with xbr70x850b and bdp-s7200

have new xbr70x850b and new bdp-s7200. Using Exodus to experiement. BD says disk is 3d. tv lets me into 3d menu so it seems to think the feed is 3d. but none of the menu items (side by side, over/under) are present. Glasses are registered and turned on. BD connected directly into tv with new hdmi cable. Have tried lots of setting changes on tv and bd, but can't get any of the 3d menu options to appear on tv. 3d works with streaming samples from youtube. Just not with BD. Any hints? very frustrating.

Ok I have been following the instructions supplied on this website http://www.zentus.com/sqlitejdbc/usage.html.
I have downloaded the jar and the dll file and have placed them into the same folder as my jar file. Then as it says I enter into the command line:
"java -cp sqlitejdbc.jar - Djava.library.path=. - jar CBL_Program.jar" and I get this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.sqlite.JDBC

Which seems to be the same exception as when I run the program from netbeans.
I am really stumped on this one, please can someone help.

I have a power mac g5 and it don't have a hard drive

what do i have to do

Install a hard drive, buy a retail version of OS X appropriate for the computer (OS X 10.5x is likely best) and install the OS on the newly installed hard drive.
You will need a SATA rev 2 or possible SATA rev 3 hard drive of less than 2.2 TB capacity.
Use Western Digital Blue or Black and Hitachi 7k drives.
Western Digital Velociraptors are also good.
SATA rev. 2 drives by WD and Hitachi are plug and play.
SATA rev. 3 drives from WD are fine with jumper on pins 5&6.
Hitachi SATA rev. 3 7200K drives are plug and play.
Do not exceed 2.2 TB in a single volume.
Avoid Seagate and ALL green or 5400 RPM drives.
Best to not risk SATA rev. 3 SSDs. There have been reports of non-use for a couple of popular drives by OCZ, Crucial, Corsair......
Sandforce controlled SATA rev 2 SSDs are fine.
Only retail OS X discs can be used.
They are scarce and can be expensive:

I have a power Mac G4 and its 7/8 years. It keeps crashing when I try to boot it up. The chord sounds and the fans whirr but it stalls at different points each time. Can you help?

I've tried unplugging everything but it hasn't helped. Sometimes get an error message saying it was not turned off properly. Operating system is 10. something - not sure without turning it on!

Hello Vicky,
Does it boot into any of these modes?
Holding Option/alt key at bootup.
Holding SHIFT key at bootup.
Target mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
We might get clues with verbose mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
