Bootcamp on tiger. what do i do? how do i start?

ok, a bit thick i know but I have a copy of windows, im running intel mac with tiger .... please help

Bootcamp beta has indeed expired for Tiger, without upgrading to 10.5 or 10.6, there is Parallels...
http://www.parallels.com/
VmWare Fusion...
http://www.vmware.com/mac
Which I think are far better options than Bootcamp anyway.

HT1338 Can anyone tell me how to find what OS I'm using on the Mac? Tiger or Leopard? Also, how do I update from 10.6.8 to the latest version?

Can anyone tell me how to find what OS I'm using on the Mac?
Tiger or Leopard?
Also, how do I update from 10.6.8 to the latest version?

Go to the Apple menu and select "About This Mac". You will get a window similar to this one -
You current OS X version number will be shown as I've marked.
OS X 10.4.x is Tiger, 10.5.x is Leopard, 10.6.x is Snow Leopard, 10.7.x is Lion, and 10.8.x is Mountain Lion.
Whether or not you can go to the latest OS X version depends upon your hardware -
You will need to purchase the retail set for the OS X version you want; there is no pint in getting and installing any intermediate versions. Once the retail version has been installed, you can update it to the latest release for that version via download updater.

Bootcamp.What is it and How do I get rid of it?

I accidentally initiated the Bootcamp option on my Imac, and cannot get rid of it. What is it and how do I get rid of it? Thanks.

If you started BootCamp, it should have partitioned your drive (default 32GB) and now be asking for a WinXP disk to begin the install process. If you quit the process, then all you need to do is run BootCamp again and choose to restore your HD partition back to a single partition.
Hope that helps,

How to FIND BootCamp for Tiger? (own Leapord)

I have Leopard but won't install until Pro Tools and all the OS 10.5 bugs (10.5.2 supposed to be huge), fix comes out - in the mean time, any way to get a copy of bootcamp for TIGER as this is supposed to be the best way to get your mac to run the fastest with games in windows. Parallels on a Macbook Pro is a joke (regarding gaming) and is extremely choppy.
Thanks

"Important: The license to use Boot Camp Beta version 1.3, 1.4 expired when Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard was released. To find out more about Boot Camp 2.0 (which is included with Leopard), see this article."

Using Parallels, would like to use bootcamp instead, but I don't know how?

Hi guys.
I have a MBP 15" late 2011 ( the one before retina display model) os x 10.7.5, upgraded RAM to 16GB.
I've installed parallels desktop 7 and used Windows 7 through it.
I am aware that using parallel windows means the RAM and processing power is share between 2 os... am I right?
I would like to play some games that I can only play on Windows, and I guess using bootcamp will be better, because processing power is not shared.
In this case, how do I 'install' my Windows on bootcamp?
I know my MBP has bootcamp pre-installed, all I wonder is would installing it on parallels first affect my switch to bootcamp.
I've heard of some case...
People used bootcamp at the beginning, and switched to use parallels, that means the parallel windows is still from bootcamp partition.
What about my case... parallels first and then bootcamp (never activate bootcamp until now) Do i need to somehow reinstall my windows to bootcamp partition??
Sorry for my poor English

Parallels and VMware Fusion allows you to convert your Boot Camp volume into a virtual machine, so you can run OS X and the Windows copy you have in the Boot Camp volume at the same time. However, in your case, everything is more difficult, because you have to install Windows onto the Boot Camp volume.
First, make a backup of your data with Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner. You wouldn't be the first one that deletes the OS X volume by mistake and lose everything.
Then, open  > Software Update, and install all the updates. After that, open "Boot Camp Assistant", in /Applications/Utilities) and follow its steps to install Windows. Make sure you tick the option to download the Windows support software, and you will need a DVD or USB drive to burn it. When it finishes, your computer will restart from the Windows DVD, and follow these steps > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf

I want to instal windows 7 using bootcamp on my mac book pro and how large do i have to make the partition if i want to use it for gaming?

"At least 16 GB of free space on the disk onto which you’re installing for 32-bit, or 20 GB for 64-bit (for Microsoft Windows and Windows-based applications)."
That's what Apple proposes in here Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows
Personally I would double these amounts and add to that the diskspace needed for your Windows games.

How do I start up an iMac G4 on an external Firewire hard drive using Tige?

How do I start up using Tiger from an external Firewire hard drive? I have a 1 GHz iMac G4 with 768 MB RAM. The hard drive failed last week. I don't want to buy and install a new hard drive for the iMac G4. I have access to an Intel based iBook and a brand new copy of OS X 10.5 (Tiger) which I can use to install the copy of Tiger on an external Firewire hard drive that I have that's not being used. What are the steps for installing Tiger on the external Firewire hard drive and then using that external drive as the startup disk for the iMac G4?

Hi
Attach the external firewire drive to the iBook, launch Disk Utility and erase the drive use Mac OS Extended as the format type. Insert the Installer Disk, restart the iBook and hold down the 'C' key. Progress through the usual setup assistant prompts until you get to the point where you select the destination disk. You should see the external firewire disk. Select this and carry on with the installation. When the install is done, restart the iBook and verify you can boot from the drive. You can proceed with the Setup Assistant and create the default User Admin account if you want, or you can quit, shut down the iBook and disconnect the drive.
Next attach the drive to your iMac, switch on your iMac. The mac should find for itself the first bootable system it 'senses'. It should boot thereafter. You could forego this and simply attach the drive, boot the iMac and hold down the alt key. This should bring up startup disk manager which should show any or all valid bootable systems. Select the one you want and click the right hand arrow.

I already partitioned my hdd via Bootcamp, supports downloaded, and windows is on an external USB. How can I start installing Windows now? at startup it doesnt show up as bootable device...

hi,
I am having a problem installing windows via bootcamp.
I already partitioned my hdd via Bootcamp, downloaded and copied all the supports for windows, and windows is on an external USB as well. I had to stop the process the other day, so i shut down the computer. Now I am trying to boot from the USB, but I cant get to that point where the computer should restart and windows would start installing.
. After restarting, holding command, it doesnt show up as bootable device.
How shall I move forward? My disk is already partitioned, and if i start the whole process from the beginning, it wants me to partition again - although I already made a 100GB partition for windows.
Please help me out.
best,
Zoltan

So, here is what happened when I tried to make it.(sorry for quality, i had to take them by phone)
At first when I opened it I saw that I could simply resolve it just by stretching the arrow at the bottom, giving the 100 GB back which I partitioned before via Bootcamp. At this point options was not available.
I didnt do it because you mentioned earlier that it might be not designed to install windows.
The second thing I tried I choose 1 Partition from Partition Layout. This time Options were available but I didnt see anything like GPT, the onces that are optionable are on the screenshot.
What do you think how shall I move on? I was thinking to give it a shot with option 1, just stretch it back and try everything from scratch.

Bootcamp on tiger in a post beta world

A few days back the public beta program for bootcamp ended and leapord (with bootcamp built in) was announced.
Starting from scratch on tiger (I do not have any previous bootcamp intalls or downloads), is there a way to run bootcamp on tiger today?
I'm motivated for such because I have just purchased a new mac, but I would rather run tiger until leapord has a revision or two under its belt.

Are you sure it is expired TODAY?
This document says, "The license to use Boot Camp Beta version 1.3, 1.4 expires when Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard is released."

Leopard is going to be released on 10/26/07. It seems to me that you have 9 more days to do what you want.

Hi 22chill,
I recommend that we delete and re-download the movie from your purchase history:

My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

I tried this and still have the same problems. If I open Address book or the Mac App Store I get the library rebuild popup and a hang. I created a fresh user and then things are better apart from the printing issue. Its clearly some 3rd party software issue but the crash logs are meningless to me. I used the excellent Etre check app from http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck so I have a list of what is being loaded and can compare clean and crashed user info but as I cant work out which of the startup items, launch agents, launch daemons etc that are causing the problem.
I have eliminated Dropbox, Mac Keeper and Witness, and it isnt related to my exterrnal LED cinema dispay or my external thunderbolt drives, or any USB devices if thats any help to anyone else. Info from Etrecheck follows -

Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up. I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Help!

Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up. I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen. Tried it 10 times with the same result. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Help!

Oh no Mr.Ected!
I can see if we can get your phone back on! I understand how important it is to have a phone. Have you tried this to see if we can get it back on? http://vz.to/1DZhteH . If it is still goes to a red Verizon screen and then to black we might need to do a master reset. While the phone is off try this:http://vz.to/1DZhXkU Be mindful this is the last resort because it will erase everything on the phone. If you have done back up assistant in the past you will be able to get you contacts back. Please let me know if you need any more help.
