Can I use a copy of Leopard I no longer use to update my wife's MacBook?

Hi,
My PowerBook G4 died and is a goner. Before it died I bought a copy of Leopard and upgraded the G4 to 10.5.
I'm wondering if I can now load those Leopard disks onto my wife's MacBook 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (she's still on 10.4). Since I'm not using the G4 anymore, can I install this on my wife's MacBook without a problem? My fear is once I install 10.5 on her machine she'll be asked to register and Apple will give her trouble since it's registered with another computer.
Eventually, I'd like to upgrade her to 10.6 Snow Leopard and want to make sure I won't run into trouble then either.
Thanks

My fear is once I install 10.5 on her machine she'll be asked to register and Apple will give her trouble since it's registered with another computer..
Not to worry - Apple won't even know. Apple uses the honor system, and does not use a key or serial number to link a retail OS X DVD to a particular machine.

    Make cookies visible again, so that I can delete the cookies immediately when I am no longer using a website. I recently updated firefox, and I was very disappointed to find that the cookies from sites I visit were no longer showing to me. I am still able to use the sites, but I cannot see their cookies to delete them. I like to delete the cookies immediately once I am done with their site.
    Help me to see the cookies again. Thank you

    I also wanted to let you know, that I find it incredibly stupid, that cookies are hidden away in a tools menu; when most internet users would obviously prefer to be able to immediately see what cookies are being used, and could then just click and delete them immediately, without having to click 4 different buttons and then delete them. PLEASE MAKE THE COOKIES EASIER TO GET RID OF, BY SHOWING THEM IN THE BROWSER ALL THE TIME. thank you

  • Were can i get a copy of leopard

    can i get a copy of os 10.5 from apple?

    You will need to look on eBay or Amazon for a black retail install disk.
    If however, you are looking for a replacement of your original disk:
    If you are in the US call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a reasonable fee, they will supply a replacement set of system discs (if available).
    The discs will be for the original version of the OS that was pre-installed when the Mac was manufactured.

  • How can I remove my old e-mail I no longer use  also it does not have my birth date correct how can I change it?

    How can I remove an old e-mail that I am no longer using?
    How can I correct my birthdate?

    If you have an email account that you want to delete, go to Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Email Account>Delete account.
    If you have on old Apple ID that keeps popping up when you update apps, that old ID will always be tied to those apps and you must continue to use that ID and password when you update those apps.
    If you want to completely sign out of that old account, and nothing on your iPad is still tied to it, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores. Tap on the old ID and sign out. Then sign in with the new one
    For the incorrect birthday go to here.

  • The email I used for my security questions I no longer use so I can't change my security questions . What do I do now ?

    the email I had set for my security question help I no longer use and I do not remember my security questions .

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • How can I get a copy of Firefox 3.5 for use with an old piece of equipment that cannot use a newer version?

    I have an old piece of equipment that hasn't been updated in years. When trying to access the internal web page, it states that I need to use Mozilla 3.5 or better. Although the latest version is far superior, this thing doesn't like it. Could really use some help with this. Thanks.

    Hello to all
    another option is to download and install the portable firefox version from the next link, if you want to use it occasionally : http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./
    portable version is more flexible, and you can delete it any time without worries

  • Where can i find a copy of os 10.6.0?

    Where can I get a copy of Leopard 0s 10.6.0? Currently running 10.5.8
    I need it to install the lastest version of Adobe design suite and It is even needed to upgrade to lion.

    Note, G5 Macs don't support 10.6.  Note, if you don't have at least 1 GB of RAM (768MB of RAM is less), you won't be able to install 10.6 either.

  • I have Elements 7 and my CD is cracked.  How can I get another copy?

    How can I obtain another copy of my Photoshop Elements CD?

    If you have a unibody Macbook Pro with a glossy screen, and only the pane of glass in front of the LCD is cracked, that can be replaced without replacing the LCD or anything else, and you can buy the part and do it yourself if you're very handy and confident:
    http://www.powerbookmedic.com/Unibody-Macbook-Pro-Glass-Screen-Cover-Replacement ---Front-Bezel---15-Inch-p-17321.html
    If your LCD panel itself is cracked, having it replaced will cost anywhere from $250-$800 depending on the MBP model, who does the work, and whether you get a used or new replacement screen.

  • HT5621 I no longer use the e-mail I used when I first began using itunes a long, long time ago.When want to listen to some of my music I get a notice that I am have to authorize listening to the song. It is so irritating!What should I do?

    I am trying to listen to songs in my library. Certain songs require authorization. I purchased these songs using an old email which I no longer use and I have forgotten my old password. Therefore, I can no longer listen to a song I purchased!! Please advise.

    You're supposed to remember them or make note of them because they are key to a resource in which you have invested financially, just like keeping records for bank accounts you have or keys to your car.  It is just that people haven't woken up to the importance of having a digital legacy too.

  • Can I continue using Carbon Copy Cloner after upgrading to Snow Leopard?

    Hi the last time that I backed up my Mac Pro to my external hard drive using Carbon Copy was when I was on Leopard. I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, can I continue using Carbon Copy Cloner on Snow Leopard or do i have to format the external Drive? Thanks

    For compatibility make sure you have the latest version (3.3)

  • Can I update an iMac from another iMac using Carbon Copy Cloner?

    I change office locations every 6 months and move to a similar iMac setup. At each move, using external hard drives, I update the "older" iMac HD with the current Mail, Addressbook, work files, etc. Currently, I am using Snow Leopard; the machine I am transitioning to is behind, using Leopard.
    This time something new is before me, I purchased (honestly) the Snow Leopard upgrade for the iMac that I am transitioning to. So I have an OS upgrade plus a file plus a lot of application additions/upgrades.

    Yes. Noondaywitch is correct. As long as the version of OSX is no older than the one the newest Mac came with, and the older Mac is compatible (enough RAM, etc), and the drives are formatted properly, you should be able to clone from one Mac to an external HD, then clone that back to the other one.
    When you make the clone, boot up from it and run several apps, make sure your internet connection and browser work, etc.
    Before cloning back to the other Mac, boot it up from the clone and do the same.
    You may have to change a few settings for your internet connection, of course.

  • Can I Sell OSX Leopard Install DVD That I'm No Longer Using?

    From what I understand (and from what I see on eBay/Craigslist) I can resell my OS X Leopard Install DVD as long as it's not currently installed on any computer.
    Does anyone know where this is in writing?
    I just had my listing removed from eBay due to a complaint from some organization that it was an illegal sale.
    However, my listing had my own photo and no quotes from anyone else. It's the retail copy of the Leopard Install DVD that I bought -- not bootlegged or burned from an original! It's not currently installed on any computer.
    I want to send the written statement to eBay so I can relist my not-needed Leopard DVD.
    Thanks.

    Legally if you are no longer using the operating system on your computer yes you can. If you are still using the operating system or have updated to 10.6 Snow Leopard, then NO.
    The disk is your End User License Agreement (EULA) and once you sell your disk you also transfer the EULA and no longer own the product. Hence you no longer can legally use the product.
    The Snow Leopard is considered by Apple as an "upgrade" and requires the EULA of 10.5 (unless you purchased the "Snow Leopard Box Set".

  • Lost install disc can a Leopard OS disc be used?

    We've recently lost our install disc for the MBA. I do have a copy of Leopard OSX, can we use that to repair permissions?

    My guess is that you will be unable to boot the computer from the Retail disk. Replacement disks are around $25 from an Authorized Service Provider.

  • How can I use the "Copy and paste" tool in order get stamps in the same position in different pages (Acrobat XI for PC)?

    With Acrobat 6.0 I was able to copy a stamp in the same position (I mean "exactly" the same one) of different pages just by using the "copy/past" tool.
    Now I am using Acrobat XI and it seems like it is not possible anymore: I am copying a stamp and I am trying to past it in anoter page, but it appears in the center of the page (or wherever it wants to...).
    Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you very much. I'll be waiting for you message.
