Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)
MB022Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (5-user family pack)

After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update

Update new version of Firefox but old version of Mac OSx. Now all old bookmarks lost.

I made a mistake: I download the last version of Firefox but my laptop (an iBook with Mac OS 10.4.11) does not support this Firefox version. Now I lost all my bookmarks because the new Firefox version delate the old one.
Is it possible to recover the old bookmarks?

Your bookmarks probably aren't lost, you just can't access them. Try installing Firefox 3.6.21 and they should be there.

According to Mactracker, given the size of the screen and the CPU speed your MBP could be one of these models:
- MacBookPro5,1, which originally shipped with OS X 10.5.5
- MacBookPro5,3, which originally shipped with OS X 10.5.7
Since they originally shipped with OS X 10.5, the system disc that came with your MBP may have 10.5 on it. If so, you should be able to do a reinstall from the original disc. If you do a full backup to another volume before you do that, you can recover your data from the backup to your MBP. However, some migrating some of the data (such as Mail messages) may be tricky due to format changes.

I have a US Mac living in the UK. I tried to download both the British and American version. Both state "You cannot use the application Firefox with this version of MAC OSX". Any suggestions how to proceed?

HT5527 If I have both Mac OSX for laptop and desktop, and iPhones/iPads with OS 5 and later, does a single purchase on one of them cover all of them?

If I have both Mac OSX for laptop and desktop, and iPhones/iPads with OS 5 and later, does a single purchase to expand iCloud on one of the devices apply to all of them?

Yes, it's icloud's storage you will be expanding. All devices logged into an account will be able to use that storage.

Disk utility "You can't use this version of the application Disk Utility with this version of Mac OSX. You have Disk Utility 12.1"

I use mountain lion 10.8.1
I try start disk utility it only says: "You can't use this version of the application Disk Utility with this version of Mac OSX. You have Disk Utility 12.1"

To do a Reinstall of the OS boot to the Recovery HD, Command+r key at startup, then select Reinstall Mac OS X. the files will be downloaded from the internet and then the instal will begin.
With Mt Lion it is also available from the Mac App store in your Purchases area. You may be able to download it and then nmanually starting the install while booted to Mt Lion.
But I'd normally use the Recovery HD as that takes the installed OS out of the picture.

Will CS6 be released for new versions of MAC OSX forthcoming?

MAC OSX V11.xxx is coming out soon. Am concerned that moving forward with Lightroom 5/6 etc will cut me off from PS CS6.

Adobe has said they will issue maintenance releases to make sure CS6 permanent license holders can use future versions of the Mac and Windows OS. I'm sure LR6 will also be able to access CS6 as well.

Older versions of MAC OSX

Yes campers, Apple seems to be going the way of the "evil empire".
I have an old powerbook G4 running OSX v 10.3.9, bought an iPhone, downloaded the latest version of iTunes, but alas, I need 10.4 or higher.
Now this is not a big deal since I have a new iMAC. But doesnt it seem a little harsh that we cant use our iPhones on Panther?
Windows users can be as far back as 2000, I beleive, as long as they have the latest version of iTunes.
Hopefully Apple can work this out, or I will have to shell out ANOTHER stack of cash to be able to stay current while traveling with my powerbook.
I know, kind of a whine, but...
THERE, I said it!
iMac 2Ghz 15' and G4 12' pwrbook Mac OS X (10.4.10) iPods, iPhones, iEvo

Right or wrong - this Sys Requirement was in every FAQ I saw prior to the release of the iPhone, and is also on the iPhone box itself.
Apple will be coming out with a new OS in the Fall, so it doesn't surprise me that they didn't support the older OS (again, right or wrong). I doubt they will make it available to older operating systems (IMHO).
FWIW - I had to update my iBook when I bought the iPhone. But I knew that when I bought it.

If i buy a old version macbook can i still download programs like virtual dj?

can you download programs on a old version macbook

What you need to find out is the minimum Mac OS requirements for the particular application and the exact model MBP that you are interested in. Then we can determine if it will be able to run the software.
You may have been correctly informed but not knowing this information I cannot tell you precisely if that is the case.
Ciao.

Where to install Thunderbird on Mac OSX for multiple users.

Hello,
I would like to install the email program Mozilla Thunderbird on my Mac OSX (10.4.6) computer which is set up with several different user accounts. I am not sure where to install it so that everyone may be able to use it. I would like to install it once so that everyone may use it rather than installing it multiple times (once for each user).
As you might already know, in Mac OSX when you install a program in the main applications folder, it is available for everyone who uses the computer (available to all accounts). However, the trouble is, that although the actual Thunderbird program is available to all users the profile is not. The profile obviously is an important component of the Thunderbird mail program as it contains all the actual mail messages. When Thunderbird is installed, by default the profile folder is placed in the users home Library folder at:
users home folder/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/<Profile name>/
This location make it impossible for other users to access the profile and therefore Thunderbird will not work for the other users.
What should I do?
I have a couple solutions, however I would like to ask for some advice on what others do in this situation which I am sure is fairly common.
Here are my solutions:
1. Move the profile folder to a custom location that is accessible by all users in OSX such as the global Library folder (rather than the user's Library folder). Path of global Library folder:
/library/
Then let Thunderbird know it was moved to this custom location using Thunderbird's profile manager.
2. Try to figure out a way in mac OSX that allows the profile folder at this default location:
users home folder/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/<Profile name>/
to be accessible by all users.
Ownership and permissions need to be changed for the profile folder maybe?
3. Install thunderbird multiple times - once for each user - each with their own profile. The problem with this is then there will be multiple installations of the same program and they will not be able to share the same profile folder - which is what I would like to do - if possible.
I have a feeling that solution 1 is the more logical solution.
PS I am using Mac OS 10.4.6 (Tiger) with Thunderbird 1.5.0.4
Thanks for any advice.

Yup, its me again Always seem to have a question for the group
Thanks Mulder and Scott! I am sure glad I asked for your advice. I am completely new to the multi-user environment of OSX - as you can tell. (I guess I am still in OS9 thinking mode where there was only one user.)
Scott wrote:
"Mail can be configured to download any new email, but not remove it from the server until it is removed from the Mail application. This way, the email can be downloaded to multiple clients across multiple accounts."
Interesting. Thanks for pointing this out Scott. Good to know. This would seem to me to be similar to IMAP in some ways. This would be a good way to work in a multi-user environment. This is good info to be aware of.
It sounds like an interesting way to work.
Thanks to both of you for steering me aware from the difficulty of attempting to place the profile folder outside the home directory. This sounds like it would have been more work than necessary.
Why am I not using Apple's Mail program? Good question. I thought I would try out Thunderbird for a while - and maybe switch to Apple Mail later - just to see which one I prefer. I am a web developer and I have always liked the open source community and I thought it would be beneficial for me to become as familiar as possible with all the Mozilla products (Firefox and Thunderbird). As well, it keeps me somewhat on the same wavelength as my PC friends, of whom many use this program too. I don't want to be too much out of touch with my mac. I might try Mail later. Thunderbird has been great so far. It has excellent spam recognition abilities and you can train it too to detect spam.
Scott the "Family account" idea is an awesome idea. Thanks.
I have learned a lot from this post. This gives me a few logical solutions. As Mulder points out it is best to keep users' profiles separate. This makes it simpler. Excellent advice. I could still install the Thunderbird application in the global application folder and then each user account can open this Thunderbird application from their own account and configure the mail client with their own profile. All users will be using the same Thunderbird application but with their own profiles. Yes, thats it. I tried this out and it seems to work now - didn't seem to work earlier because I didn't know what I was doing
Another idea could be, if I really need to share one single profile, would be to follow Scotts advice and just set up a "Family account". Very simple solution. Nice idea.
So, those are the two top solutions.
Furthermore, I could use a mix of both strategies. For mail accounts that could be shared ([email protected]) I could create a "Family account" in OSX, as Scott detailed above, and then for mail accounts that are for each individual user ([email protected]), I could be sure they have separate profiles as detailed in Mulder's post.
Thanks for all these helpful ideas!

I'm getting the message: Firefox (4.0) is not compatible with this version of MAC OSX (10.4.11); how can I go back to Firefox 3.6?

Is Firefox 4.0 compatible with Mac OSX 10.4.11?
If not, is there somewhere I can download the older version of Firefox 3.6 that worked fine with my Mac?

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

Mac OSX for the 13-inch Early 2011 Thunderbolt 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 model.

I got a refurb MacBook Pro two days ago.
It is the 13-inch Early 2011 Thunderbolt 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 model.
It came from Apple with Mac OSX 10.7.1 Lion installed on it (and no media on disks).
According to EveryMac.com this model originally shipped with Mac OSX 10.6.6
The "Whats in the box" lists the software on DVD as one of the parts that should have been included but there was no disk with the MacBook.
Was there or wasn't there an actual software install media disk for this model ??
The fan runs at about 2000 rpm all the time.
Is this normal ??
Mike

10.7 Lion doesn't have disks, but a Recovery Partition accessible by holding command and r keys upon booting.
You need a internet connection, fast, strong and relaible to download Lion from Apple servers.
Since that machine came with Snow Leopard originally, you can call Apple with your serial number (AppleMenu > About this Mac > More info) and request new copies of the 10.6.x grey disks.
You can learn more about Lion by visiting these links

TS1572 you can use this version of the application mail with this version of mac osx

Cannot use this version" alert appears when opening application mail with this version of mac OS X, we seem to have lost our mail and now we get this message.

Make sure the 4.5 only is in the /Applications folder alone and not inside any enclosing folder, then run the update again. /Applications is inside the main Macintosh HD folder, not in your Home Folder, if you even have one there. Move the other Mail to the Trash for now, but don't empty it yet.
Link for the update.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586
If that doesn't work, move both Mails to the Trash (don't empty yet) and run both updates, the 10.6.8 Combo update (the link for that is in the Apple article) and then the Security update again.
