ARD, Leopard and Intel Macs

I can't get ARD to load on my intel mac. Works fine on a power pc mac but not on an intel. I am using the latest version of ARD. Is anyone using ARD with an intel Mac?

Many people are.
Did you migrate your ARD install from a PPC machine to the Intel machine? This is known to cause problems. Your best bet is to remove all of the various plist files and, effectively, start clean.

  • Does Photoshop Elements 4 function in Leopard on Intel Mac?

    I am aware that it is not at all supported by Adobe, but has anyone been successfully using Photoshop Elements 4 on Leopard and Intel macs of any sort?
    thank you

    I had PE4 installed and it was painfully slow and laggy that's why I tried pixelmator and I was so surprised at how wonderful it was.

    I'm repeating a little from above, but at the Apple store they told me PE4 was the latest and most compatible, but when I called Adobe support, the Adobe guy told me there were compatibility issues with PE4 and Leopard, though note that some posters here seem OK with 4 and Leopard. I suggest talking to Adobe support, but they may tell you PE6 is the fix for Leopard, in which case why does 4 work with Leopard? When I told the Apple store that Adobe said that 4 had problems with Leopard, Apple said that Adobe never communicated that to them. I have no more to offer as I don't have 4 to try it. I can say that 2 is dead in the water. Still looking at Pixelator.

  • Universal CINs? (For MacOS 10.4 and Intel Macs)

    Hi!
    1. I was wondering if it was possible to build a Universal CIN for MacOS 10.4, in order to support Intel Macs. If so how? I get link errors in Xcode because it cannot find CIN functions such as MoveBlock, and NumericArrayResize when compiling for i386 (which is understandable). Is there an Intel Mac version of liblabviewcin.a and liblvexports.a?
    2. Is it possible for LabVIEW to call a DLL function in a Universal framework? Or must all frameworks be for the PowerPC?
    Thanks.

    I am trying to invoke code external to LabVIEW that contain AltiVec and in the future, SSE instructions. Right now I am trying to bundle PowerPC code (with AltiVec instructions) with Intel i386 code to support both PowerPC and Intel Macs using a single binary.
    So basically I have:
    1. A CIN that uses AltiVec currently (which includes AltiVec instructions). I would prefer that it switched to a SSE version automatically when I call the CIN on an Intel Mac.
    2. Some VIs that uses the Call Library Function Node to invoke a function in a Universal Framework. The framework is compiled for both PowerPC and Intel. The PowerPC version includes AltiVec instructions and thus is incompatible with Rosetta. I was wondering if LabVIEW would actually be able to invoke such a function successfully on an Intel Mac. I don't have an Intel Mac on hand, which is why I am asking.

  • Consequences of installing G5 Leopard on  Intel Mac?

    I bought an Intel iMac off of eBay, and it came shipped with OS X 10.4. I had a non-retail replacement DVD of 10.5 from when I had an AppleCare problem with my iMac G5, so I tried to use that disc to upgrade my OS. It never worked correctly, and on the Apple forums I was told that the replacement DVD would be hardware-specific and not function.
    However, a new phenomenon has occurred.. If I completely install Tiger with the hardware-specific discs that came with my intel Mac, and then simply upgrade to Leopard- the install succeeds and the computer is ESSENTIALLY functional.
    It's not perfect though. What I've observed is that (today was the 2nd time this has happened) after a couple days of untinterrupted use (including powering down/up) and having a seemingly functional iMac-- everything goes very wrong. The computer slows down to a crawl, so I leave it alone; then when the beachball goes away, I try to click something. No matter what App I choose, it will freeze up once it begins, and everything I click suddenly stops working.
    So do you think this is a consequence of installing a leopard disc with G5 architecture, or that these symptoms are indicative of something wrong with the iMac itself (possibly bad RAM?). What seems strange is the install does succeed with the upgrade, and the computer works great for a good while- and then suddenly stops. One thing that always confuses/annoys me is when computers aren't consistent... I mean, theyre computers!
    Please share your thoughts, thank you!

    In short: A PPC Mac cannot boot an Intel version of OS X and vice-versa. You will need a full retail version of Leopard that can install either the PPC or the Intel version of OS X. Or as you have discovered your Upgrade disc will install an Intel upgrade to an Intel version of Tiger or a PPC upgrade to a PPC version of Tiger, but it will not performa a full Erase and Install.
    As for migrating from a G5 to an Intel Mac see the following:
    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
    Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
    Screensavers written for the PowerPC
    System Preference add-ons
    All Unsanity Haxies
    Browser and other plug-ins
    Contextual Menu Items
    Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
    Kernel extensions
    Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
    See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior 4.1, TechTool Pro 4.6.1, SuperDuper 2.5, and Drive Genius 2.0.2 work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

    Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
    Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking
    will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
    If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
    1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
    2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
    3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
    4. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
    5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
    If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
    1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
    2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:

    Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
    In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
    In your /Home/Library/ folder:
    /Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)

    If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
    5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

  • Difference in file handling on PowerPC macs and Intel macs

    I have a Power PC mac at work and an intel mac at home. I've noticed that there is a difference in file handling between the two.
    I cant pinpoint exactly what it is but has anyone else found this?

    If your question is: Why is my work computer, which is over 7 years old, runs an old version of OS X (maybe leopard, maybe Tiger), with a now abandoned CPU architecture (PowerPC) different than my modern Mac Mini at home which runs Mountain Lion on an Intel CPU?  Then my answer would be:
    Your work computer is over 7 years old.
    It runs an very old version of OS X, which is NOT Mountain Lion.
    It runs on a CPU known as PowerPC, which is not been used by Apple since 2006.
    Your home computer is more modern.
    It runs OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
    It runs on an Intel CPU.
    I can't pinpoint exactly what your question is, but I suspect that this information may help you answer it or in the alternative, ask it differently.

  • NikonScan v4 and Intel Mac

    I'm looking for people that can verify if NikonScan version 4, a Nikon Scanner, and an Intel Mac can play nice together.
    Nikon says Intel Core Duo Macs are unsupported. What about the Core Solo? It's not mentioned. That doesn't mean it won't work on an Intel Duo or Solo and I'm just looking for verification either way from people that have actually tried it.
    Nikon's Official Answer-
    http://support.nikontech.com/cgi-bin/nikonusa.cfg/php/enduser/stdadp.php?p_faqid=13865&pcreated=1139239488
    Currently Nikon products and software applications are not supported on Macintosh computers powered by the Intel Core Duo processor. Compatibility and support for Nikon products and software with Macintosh computers powered by the Intel Core Duo processor is currently under review by the Nikon Quality department. At this time we do not have any time-tables regarding when we will or if we will issue drivers and software support for this new system. Rest assured that Nikon will make every effort to support all the latest technologies developed by Apple and Microsoft. Keep checking our Knowledge Database system for updates regarding this issue over the upcoming months.
    Someone in another Apple thread claims he uses NikonScan v3.0 on an Intel Mac. ->
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=331630
    Here's a link to download NikonScan version 4.0 ->

    THANK-YOU!
    (2) B & W G3/500 & Gigabit G4/1.6 Ghz Dual   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I answered this one myself.
    Yes, a Nikon LS-5000ED scanner with the USB 2.0 interface works with an Intel Duo Core 1.66 Ghz Mac Mini - 512 MB RAM.
    Using the latest NikonScan 4.02 software and OS X.4.6 with all the updates.
    No problems yet.
    Hopefully the Universal Binary version of NikonScan will be available soon as I think it could run faster. Especially after Apple stops making the PPC models later this year.

  • Flash and Intel Macs

    Hi there everyone,
    I've got a site that has a flash game in which users need to answer math questions by typing in numbers and hitting enter. I recently heard from a user who just switched from a PC to an Intel Mac. The game worked fine on the PC, but now, when he's playing the game, it won't register him typing in the numbers. The keyboard works fine all other times he clicks the numbers, just not in the game.
    I figure this is a flash plugin problem, but I figured I'd check here and see if anyone's heard of any general Flash + Intel Mac issues like this.
    Thanks,
    Dan P.

    Nevermind... it's appartenly working on user's computer. Sorry for the forum clutter.

  • Cisco VPN 4.7 and Intel Mac

    Has anyone been able to get the Cisco VPN 4.7 or 4.8 work with the Intel version of Mac OS X 10.4.4? It gives an error that the subsystem is not running.

    Very true - but I am actually using 4.9.0030 beta (from TAC), and have been for about a week now - and it indeed works (on Intel Mac, and a PowerMac G5 Dual).
    There is some issue with profiles (imported profile files as well as old ones / certs), but all in all, it does function.
    I do remember the long road to a REALLY functioning Tiger client, and it APPEARS Cisco are going to be a bit better off with this one
    Having said that, I DO agree with your statement nonetheless I don't work for them !!!

  • La cie firewire and intel mac

    I have an intel mac and a la cie250 d2 extreme triple harddrive. I connected the la cie to a power pc imac and all is well. Is the la cie compatible with the intel imac? Can I connect it, format and start using the la cie or are there software updates to download? I will not use silverlining pro or silverkeeper software.
    When I connected a digital slr and a dv camera to the ppc mac, they worked fine. no software to install. I think connecting the la cie should be the same.

    You should have no trouble with your LaCie drive working with you iMac Core Duo. Before moving to a FireWire hard drive from OWC, I had the same LaCie hard drive, and it worked just fine, without any updates.

  • Realplayer and Intel Mac - anyone got to the bottom of it yet?

    I think I understand the Real website to say that current realplayer works on Intel Mac, whereas I believe previous download would not.
    I have downloaded and it runs but no sound.
    I have set Audio Input in Audio/MIDI to 44100 (this correct? Under Audio Output it says "Output not supported, not sure what that refers to).
    I have opened and closed Garage Band.
    I have used Get Info to get Realplayer to run in Rosetta.
    Anyone know what I need to do to get sound from this thing?

  • MS UAM and Intel Macs?

  • HDV and Intel Macs

    So, many have some trouble viewing HDV. And when it works (by opening Quicktime Player under Rosetta), my older G4 does far better with smoother video than my new MacBook.
    Can anyone confirm my suspicion: the HDV codec is not Universal? I am not talking about the Intermediate Codec; I'm not trying to convert it.
    If so, when and how would we find an update?
    Thanks.
    Jeremy

    The HDV codec only seems to be available with Final Cut Pro (or Studio), and there is a Universal update for that. As far as I can tell that's the only way to get the Universal HDV component.
    It also seems that running QuickTime Player under Rosetta, with the PPC HDV component does not let you view HDV movies on an Intel Mac. I'd be happy to hear how you managed it if you've found otherwise!

  • Waveburner and Intel Macs

    Does the crossgrade to Logic Pro 7.2 also include a version of Waveburner that runs properly on Intel Macs?
    Sorry if this is answered elsewhere but I did look around and couldn't find anything.

    SS, hi.
    Bronze Welder by minnetonka software will do DVD-A.
    very basic. nothing like the features you'd see on any DVD movie.
    they make more advanced types - windows only - that will let you add graphics, movies, etc, but are priced in the $us1000's.
    i don't think the major record labels want us folks to have this type of software cheap as they don't even use DVD-A yet.
    doing albums with this quality would certainly stop a lot of the over- compressed, over-mastered stuff out there now on cd. people would have a better musical experience for sure.
    re: WB. i'm still on a PPC and it does crash sometimes. try putting all the songs for a given cd into one folder on a separate HDD. i find my crashes occur when the files are all over the place.

  • FCP and Intel Macs no go?

    For all who are asking whether rosetta will enable current versions of FCP to run on the new intel macs take a look at this article (near the bottom of the page)
    http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,1910879,00.asp

    Read this:
    http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/topquestions.html
    "Does Final Cut Studio run on the new Intel-based Mac computers?
    The current version of Final Cut Studio is not supported on Intel-based Mac computers with Rosetta. A Universal version of Final Cut Studio will be available before the end of March 2006. Universal applications are designed to run flawlessly on both Intel- and PowerPC-based Mac computers.
    If I buy Final Cut Studio today, can I get the Universal version when it’s available?
    Yes. All owners of Final Cut Studio are eligible for a low-cost “crossgrade” to the Universal version for $49."

  • Would my plug-ins work in Logic 7.2 and intel mac?

    This may be a dumb question but would my plug-ins that work in Logic 7.1 on my Powerbook work in Logic 7.2 on an intel mac?

    The statement I made is not a "blanket" one, if one is looking at the big picture.
    I understand why you would consider that a blanket statement, since you are narrowly looking only at one angle.
    The user did not state that this is the only reason he is getting a computer, and he did not specify that he is using the computer ONLY for Logic, and therefore, it is wise to consider all options.
    In what way was my comment narrow?
    Everyone's situation is different depending on what software, plugins and peripherals are used. Making a recommendation based on months makes no sense since someone's software may be ready much sooner than that, or may be available even later.
    The decision to upgrade should be based on whether the things you need to run are ready or not. Doing it this way considers all options, picking a number of months out of a hat is narrowly looking at one angle.

Maybe you are looking for
