Can I change my 2005 G5 from a PowerPC to an Intel machine?

Is there a method or means whereby I can convert my PowerPC G5 into an intel machine?  So much software, but not for my architecture.
Kevin

I do not think so, the only modification I have ever heard of like that was for the 2009 Mac Pros being converted to the capabilities of a 2010 Mac Pro. Sorry.
Does anyone else know for sure?

    Are both of your Apple routers configured for an extended or roaming network?

  • Moving OS X server from a PowerPC to an Intel Machine?

    I have OS X Server running on a G5 DP 2.5 GHz which looks like it will soon need a new logic board and/or power supply (a costly exercise).
    I therefore am looking to get a new G5 (Intel) but was wondering how easy the migration is going to be, can anyone help with the following questions:
    1) Will OS X server instal on the Intel (I don't think the Intel version was around when I bought it)??
    2) Will migration assistant transfer all the server settings, users etc seamlessly
    3) I will be installing the same OS X Server serial number on the new machine (and will delete of the old machine once migration complete), will this be an issue ie will they detect each other? Alternatively, should I migrate onto the installed OS X and then instal OS X server once all teh filews have been transfered?
    4) Any other likely issues?

    1: no. new box, new architecture, new distro, and I'd tend to expect a new payment made to Apple.
    2: seemlessly? Donno. There have been issues with migration assistant reported in the past. There have been occasional cases reported here where migrated users need blow away a plist or three, or have encountered various (other) oddities. I'd certainly not experiment with the only copy of my data.
    3: I'd expect different serial numbers here, given you'll certainly need an Intel distro and a distro newer than you have here, and also given the Mac OS X Server release that you'll probably be looking at upgrading to; this given the likely timing of this particular upgrade.
    As for licensing, check with a Genius at your local Apple store around your plans and expectations here.
    If you're upgrading an existing 10.4.10 Mac OS X client (on Intel) to 10.4.x Mac OS X Server (and not to another release), there's a [variant upgrade procedure|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305537] required; the currently-available Mac OS X Server is a couple of releases back, though there's a documented mechanism to upgrade a newer client to server without loosing the newer pieces and platform support from the client version.
    Do ensure your disk backups are good, and current. It's been my experience that a power supply or motherboard failure can stuff up in-flight disk I/O writes; that you can potentially encounter a corruption of a write that is in flight when your server, um, commences its upcoming retirement.
    Partition your disk and set up mirroring and such before you migrate and turn the users loose. The usual set-up tasks....
    Do look at the price of an Xserve, as it includes an unlimited-client license for Mac OS X Server.

    You should be able to change your e-mail address from your provider ... then edit it to meet the Apple requirements.   Unfortunately you've given us no profile details so we can't tell what device you have.

    Hello Emilaine
    To change countries of the iTunes Store, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region. From there it is a matter of picking the U.K. Store and you should be good.

  • HT1766 HOW CAN I CHANGE MY BACKUP FOLDER FROM THE C DRIVE TO ANOTHER?????

    HOW CAN I CHANGE MY BACKUP FOLDER FROM THE C DRIVE TO ANOTHER????? because my c drive in the windows computer gets filled and i need to back up my ipod to a portable hard disk.. bt i dont know how to do it.. plz help

    you can't change the backup folder as far as I know, but you can choose to move backups. The information you need can be found in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
    Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
    The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system.   Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac:  ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP:  \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7:  \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.
    Hope this helps
