Anyone having problems with Snow Leopard

I have bought the new software but I just wanted to check on the forum whether anyone is having problems when they upgrade to Snow Leopard. I am running 10.5.8 on my MBP. I currently have a very full disk which I am trying to sort out but I am wondering whether it would help me to have the Snow Leopard running. Any advise gratefully received!!

No.

First solve the full disk problem,
then determine if you are ready to upgrade*

  • Having problem with Snow Leopard

    I updated my mac today using Snow Leopard and now I'm having problem with amsn ans Cyberduck.. Is there anyway to have this fixed?

    HI,
    The most recent version of Cyberduck is here but it *may not be* compatible with Snow Leopard.

    Read where you see; System Requirements
    You can go to the developer's site and check for updates.

  • Solution for those having problems with Snow Leopard and drivers

    I have posted what worked for me in several posts that other people had started, but because I feel I might sound repetitive and annoying, I am just posting it in this one for everyone. I hope it can be helpful. Best wishes for the year 2010
    First of all, make sure you have made a SOFTWARE UPDATE before doing the following:
    * Make sure your printer is connected and "on"/green light via your USB port (or other which will be recognised by your system)
    * Go to System Preference
    * Print & Fax
    * Your printer will appear.
    * Right click on the printer that is giving problems
    * Reset printing system
    * All printers will disappear
    * Click on the + sign under this/these to add a new printer (I suppose you would have to do so for each one you have if you have more than one... not sure)
    * In my case, the one that appear was 950c even though the one I have is 959. So, to make sure I would have something, I kept that, but then I click the + sign again.
    * I selected the 950C, but then I checked on "PRINT USING".... THEN
    * I had to "SELECT PRINTER SOFTWARE"
    * I found it and that came where it said "Print using", but this time it was the right software.
    * I renamed the NAME of the printer to be sure I would recognise it... LOL
    I hope this is useful for all of you.

    If a device is an All-in-One and can therefore scan, you will find that when the printer is added, the pane on the right hand side for that device will have two headings - Print and Scan.
    If the device is just a scanner, then there will be heading of Scanners in the list on the left side. Printers will typically be listed at the top of this list.
    Regarding click the + (Add), if you see Protocol, etc, then you have selected the IP icon at the top of the Add Printer browser. This is for networked devices using TCP/IP. To see devices connected to your Mac via USB, then you need to select the Default icon while in the Add Printer browser.
    Note that if you don't see any icons in the Add Printer toolbar, then you have it hidden. To see the icons, click the oval shaped button on the right hand side of the Add Printer pane.

  • Having problems installing snow leopard. I have a macbook aluminium unibody 13'' running on 10.5.8.

    Having problems installing snow leopard. I have a macbook aluminium unibody 13'' running on 10.5.8. I need snow leopard for ios6 and my new iPhone 5. I am trying to install using a snow leopard dvd for macbook pro but it comes up with an error message saying I can't install on this computer. I am pretty sure that my computer is late 2008 and has the spec. Is it because the dvd is for a macbook pro? If so where can I get one specifically for my computer?

    1. Yes.
    2. Phone the online Apple Store and order it.

  • Epson R2880 printer driver problems with Snow Leopard

    I’m running 10.6.4 on a new Mac mini and I’m trying to print to a new Epson R2880. If I let the system choose the printer driver in the print and fax utility, I get a sort of generic print dialogue box without many options, but it prints. If I go into the print and fax utility and manually choose the driver, I get a different print dialog box with all the appropriate print options. I checked and it matches the screen shots for this printer that are posted on the Epson site, so I feel sure this the correct driver. However, when I try to print with this driver, I get this error message. Error:/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpll.app/Contents /MacOS/rastertoescpll failed.
    This seems to be a common problem with Snow Leopard and the R2880 Epson printers, and it seems that most people are able to solve it by deleting the printer from the printer queue and resetting the printer queue. But that hasn’t solved my problem.
    Here’s what I’ve done:
    Manually deleted the Epson folder from the hard drive and trashed it, repaired disk permissions, uninstalled the Epson driver, updated software, downloaded and installed the Apple/Epson driver, deleted the printer from the print queue, and reset the printer queue. I’ve done all of these things several times over. And still I get the same error message every time I try to print from the driver with the print options. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a fix?

    Some of the previous users had success when they restarted after deleting the /Library/Printers/EPSON and /Library/Caches/Epson folders. You might also try deleting the /Library/Cache folder. There is a solution posted from someone at Epson:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10909012#10909012
    Substitute 2880 for RX580:
    Make sure that you have completely removed the Stylus Photo RX580 driver, then install the new driver from System Update:
    1. Power off the printer
    2. Open System Pref. and Print/Fax
    3. Highlight the RX580 printer
    4. Click on the ""-"" sign
    5. Close Print and Fax
    6. Open your Mac's Hard Drive
    7. Open the Library Folder
    8. Open Printer and delete the EPSON Folder
    9. Open the PPDs folder find the Epson Stylus Photo RX580.gz and delete the file
    10. Close the PPD and the Printer folder
    ->11. In the Library folder, open the Caches Folder
    ->12. Delete the Epson folder
    ->13. Restart the Mac
    14. Power on the printer
    15. Click on the Apple Icon and System Update
    16. Follow the directions to install the new driver
    Hope this helps.

  • Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power?  Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

    Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power?  Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

    This is a major problem with Lollipop, but yo said it started 2 months ago.   Several people have fixed problem by removing FaceBook And Face book messenger and then re loading the apps again.   You might want to clear your cache before reloading.  Not sure this is your problem, but worth a try.  Good Luck

    Same problem here with and I've done everything shy of a total reset which I also find unacceptable. This problem exists on all iMessage platforms (iPhone, iPad, and Mac) so I don't see how restoring my iPhone would help the problem.

  • Problem with Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    I recently faced problem with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and my system started getting shut down before login screen appears. I contacted apple support,and they replaced my Logic board.
    Now i am facing problem with track pad, and there is a huge degradation in system performance.
    Neither, bluetooth and internet port is working.
    Is that a known problem with 10.6.8 ? or does the people who worked upon replacing the logic board messed up something ?
    they recommended me to re-install Mac OS which came along with system.
    --Manish

    Thanks for a super Quick response.
    I have tried re-installing the MAC on top of the current installation 10.6.8 and, ( as system is so slow, it took around 5 hours for installation to complete ), yet the problem persisted.
    Currently i formatted the Macintosh HD, and i am doing a fresh installation. Hope it does work .. ??
    Else, i am not sure, what to go ahead with..
    The person who replaced LB, had an external hard drive with 10.6.7 installed on it, when system was booted from that disc , the things starts working normally.
    if after the fresh installation, problem persist, i will update.
    Also, please let me know if you have some solution for this problem.

  • I'm having trouble with Snow Leopard server disconnecting.

    I'm having trouble with Snow Leopard server disconnecting. Recently upgraded my laptops to latest MacBook Pro OSX Lion, but everything has been fine since December until now. I did just add a 2TB Drive to the set-up (OWC Mercury Elite AL-Pro) in a Daisy chain of 2 other 2TB drives and a 3TB Drive that had been working perfectly up until now. I was able to use it yesterday, but now it has gone haywire and I lose connections while working on files or saving files. Have to restart server and it works for a while, but then drops off. Could Server be corrupt?

  • Anyone having problem with the iCloud lately

    anyone having problems with iCloud sending from iPad to windows computer within the last week?

    I am having similar problems.  iCloud has been working great between my Mac and iPad, but within the last week, when I save a Pages doc (via my Mac) onto iCloud, it doesn't show up for me to retrieve on my iPad.  All my settings seem to be correct, and there are still plenty of other docs on iCloud that I have previously saved, but these new ones will not show up.  I have plenty of space left, so that is not the issue...

  • HT1222 Is anyone having problems with iPhone Bluetooth to BMW s since iOS 6.1

    Is anyone having problems with iPhone Bluetooth to BMW s since iOS 6.1?

    Yes. I had an iPhone 3G and when upgraded to 6.1 the bluetooth connectivity failed progressively and eventually the phone just wouldn't connect. I broke and reestablished the pairing am few times and each time it would work for a while then disconnect to the extent I thought the bluetooth hardware in the car was failing. I then got an iPhone 5 and the same issue remained. In the last few days I've paired an old Blackberry with the car kit to rule out the BMW hardware. Blackberry is fine so it has to be iOS incompatibility.

  • Is anyone having problems with the battery drains quickly and the iphone4 heats up in use and in charging after upgrading to 5.1.1?

    Is anyone having problems with the battery drains quickly and the iphone4 heats up in use and in charging after upgrading to 5.1.1?

    I have had the same problem but I seem to be getting somewhere to fixing it!!! My battery was going down at 20% an an hour now its 10% with constant use and 5 in standby !!! So improvement all round
    First I did a restore then I drained the battery i started to charge it and when it came on I turned the phone off completely and let it charge to 100% I then left it for a couple of hours on charge at 100. I saw no improvement after 1st drain so I repeated the drain battery and charge steps again with the phone turned off when charging and have seen a very big improvement. I am going to do it again tonight and hopefully problem solved!!!!
    The next issue is iMessage as that's playing up and wifi drop out
    Good luck
