Can I install Leopard that's been installed elsewhere?

I'm looking to purchase Leopard on ebay. Obviously most of the seller's are selling their copy of Leopard that they've already installed on their computers. Is it possible to use install disks that have previously been installed and may be active on another's computer? I was under the impression there was a method of tracking which was developed to dissuade selling old software like this, no?

It is illegal to install on more than one CPU at a time. You also are likely to find that eBay items could be discs that came with a specific computer model and may not work on yours. OEM discs (have gray labels) are usually specific to the model with which they shipped.
Be legal. Buy your legitimate copy of Leopard from Apple Online or your local Apple retailer.

  • Error message when compiling book "file is corrupt" referring to a photo.  Or "cannot find original photo".  Can you use photos that have been "edited" out of "Book Mode"?

    Error message when compiling book "file is corrupt" referring to a photo.  Or "cannot find original photo".  Can you use photos that have been "edited" out of "Book Mode"?

    I did copy it to my desktop, but it still won't let me open it.  I think the file on the disc might be corrupt or something like that though the cd itself checks out fine as far as viruses go.  I was able to verify the disc, but that's about it.  My husband tried it on his iMac and we have the same issue.  It's unzipping the folder, but won't let us open the folder on both the Mac Book Pro or the iMac by double clicking, going to file/open or right clicking.  It just keeps saying the same message as I posted above.  I think I'm just going to have the client put the pictures on either a memory card or a USB memory stick so she won't have to compress the files for zipping purposes.  It's been too frustrating trying to open this folder on this cd she gave me.  She said she created/zipped the cd on her Mac Book Pro but it sure won't open on mine.

  • Can you retreive emails that have been deleted

    Can you retreive emails that have been deleted??

    Some phones use a "Trash Folder" system so you can retreive deleted emails within a certain window of time.  I am not sure on the Bionic.
    Also you could possibly retreive your mail directly from your email providers server. Example I use charter email, so I would contact charter communications, gmail is Google so you would contact Google, etc.
    Good luck.

  • Can I retrieve contacts that have been deleted?

    Can I retrieve contacts that have been deleted?

    You posted this in the BlackBerry space, so I am assuming you have a BlackBerry of some sort... if you've used desktop manager or BB Protect or another backup application, then you can retrieve contacts from the most recent backup.
    Otherwise, you may be out of luck, unless their information is in your recent call list, or recent texts.
    I use BB Protect to make automatic backups of my data each week, (with no interaction needed by me, it just happens) so if something goes crazy, I have, at most, a week's worth of new stuff to enter.  BB Desktop manager also makes backups, manually - you need to connect the phone to your computer via USB and make a backup, or restore from a backup.

  • Can I retrive data that has been wiped out because I forgot my password?

    Can I retrive data that has been wiped out because I forgot my password? I tried my password 10 times and forgot it and it wiped everything out when I finally remembered my password and logged in. Is there a way to retrieve the data?

    Sorry, but password to what? Where is this "data" you wish to recover?

  • Hi I would like to know how I can view a video that has been send via mail. When I tap on the video it only gives me the option to send iit as mail again

    Hi  I would like to know how I can view a video that has been send to me via email. When I tap on the video icon it only gives me option to send as a mail or to open in drop box which I don't want to open in.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are doing this from your phone (as you mention) then you can use the new iPhoto Photo Journal feature to do this.
    Unfortunately, iCloud does not offer equivalents to Mobile Me’s iDisk, Gallery or Web Hosting services. You will need to find a third party solution to replace these services. You might consider DropBox, SugarSync, MediaFire or any other service that offers online storage.

  • How can i delete photos that have been synced from my computer to my i-pad?

    I want to delete photos that have been copied from my computer to my i-pad,i can delete albums but not phots?

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • How can I save music that has been sent to me via email on my iPad.?

    How can I save music to my iPad that has been sent to me in an email? Please help

    You can't save it to the Music app directly on the iPad, you will need to see if there are any third-party music apps in the store that you allow you to copy music from Mail to them. For the Music app then only way to get music into it is via the iTunes store app directly on the iPad and by syncing from your computer's iTunes.

  • Can't locate iphotos that have been edited in Photoshop

    I use iPhoto 9 to store and edit most photos, but on occasion, use Photoshop CS4 as the external editor. When I save a photo that has been edited in PS, it indicates that it is saving it to it's original iPhoto album, but when I look in the album, it's not there. Where did it go? My workflow is to option-click the photo in the iPhoto browser and select "edit in external editor". The photo then pops up in PS and I edit it. When it comes time to save, I select "save as" and rename the photo. The destination is listed as its original iPhoto album, so I press "save". The photo is saved somewhere, but I can't find it.
    Rick

    When it comes time to save, I select "save as" and rename the photo.
    'Save As' is another cause of the issue.
    Note that iPhoto sends a copy of the file to Photoshop, This copy is created by iPhoto and iPhoto tracks it and works with it. If you use Save As then you're creating a new file with Photoshop and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file.
    Iphoto is preserving your original file anyway, so the Save As is redundant.
    Don't use Save As, don't rename the file and there'll be no problem.

    Strange, when I delete an application from any of my Palm devices, it stays deleted and has never returned!  
    If the OP is referring to Docs To Go, there is an option to reinstall the handheld programs available in the Desktop version of Docs To Go.

  • How can I access songs that have been uploaded to my iCloud with itunes Match on a different (work) PC?

    I have logged in with Itunes Match on my work PC, but after 'gathering information about itunes' Itunes Match says the maximum songs that can be uploaded that were not purchased in itunes is 25000 and iMatch stops. All I want to do is have access and the ability to download songs that iMatch has already uploaded to iCloud from my home PC.
    Please Help

    Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

  • How can I store passwords that have been deleted

    I had usernames and passwords stored for several e-mail accounts on the same site. These were accidentally removed from the saved passwords list, and now I cannot get Firefox (23.0) to remember them again. I do have password saving enabled (behind a master password), and this site does not appear on the 'exceptions list.' In the Manage Password utility, there is no facility to add new passwords, only remove them. It seems, once removed, Firefox assumes one will never want to save this site again.
    I'm in and out of these accounts literally dozens of times per day, and now have to log in manual every single time. How can I get Firefox to save these username/password combinations for me again?

    now that you have saved the passwords again, you can remove the addon. it (or the bookmarklet) is not necessary for subsequent visits if the password is already stored in the password manager.
