Dreamweaver 8 install on Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard

Hi all,
I have just done a fresh install of Mac OSx Snow Leopard (10.6) and am trying to install our copy of Dreamweaver 8 onto it. However I have now run into a few problems. Firstly it came up with an error message stating that some old format is no longer supported or something. I cant get the error message back up now, as now the CD will not mount within OSx!
Can anyone assist with this? Thanks.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • TA48312 How can I download Mac OSX 10.6 snow leopard

    Hi ,
    I use to Mac OS X v10.5.8 but I want to update to my MacBook and I need to Mac OSX v10.6 snow leopard... ???

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Mac OS X Snow Leopard is not free. It can be purchased in a DVD at the Apple Online Store > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Before upgrading, make a backup of your files onto an external drive with Time Machine. After upgrading, open  > Software Update to install Mac OS X 10.6.8, so you will be able to install iTunes 11.1.4.
    If you want to upgrade to OS X Mavericks, see > http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade

  • Will Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard work for a windows Computer....???

    hi. i am wondering if i could buy MAC OSX 10.6 SNOW LEOPARD and put it into my windows Computer and erase windows and put MAC on it? i just bought an. HP Pavilion Slimline about 1-2 weeks ago. and it has. AMD Athlon II X2. With NVIDIA Graphics With Cuda.... Will it work??? please let em know....

    Snow Leopard requires an Apple Macintosh with an Intel CPU. I doubt that even with extensive, license-breaking hacks you could get it to run on an AMD CPU.

  • Dreamweaver MX versus Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard

    Hello, I am new in this forum and would appreciate any help I can get..
    I recently bought a new iMac Intel computer with  Snow Leopard 10.6 installed.  When I try to connect to the remote site, the program crashes every time.
    I have since been told, that this version (more than 10 years old) cannot be updated, will not be compatible with Snow Leopard.
    If this is correct, I can save myself many hours of trying (I am not an expert) and can start saving up some money.
    Any advise is very much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards, Monique

    If you didn't want to wait for Adobe you can see your options here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/upgrade/
    If you have PS CS4-CS, then you can upgrade to Design Premium for $1,399 or Web Premium for $1,299.  Basically they are the same suite with one difference.
    Both include, Dreamweaver, Acrobat Pro, Illustrator, Fireworks, Flash, Media Encoder, Device Central.
    The Design Premium includes InDesign (which is a great program for print layout imo).
    The Web Premium includes Contribute and Soundbooth.
    I chose the Design version this year after using the Web last year because InDesign to me is a better value because I never used Contribute and since I have a Mac, Soundbooth serves a duplicate purpose to GarageBand.

    I just update my System and after restarting it gave me an kernel error.. after reseting the nvram and pram it worked fine again, at least till now.. I just hope for the best :)!
    I just wanted you guys to know that this might happen if you update today.. or if someone faces the same issue that he will be prepared!
    cheers, Tom

    Did you update to 10.6.2 via Software Update or did you download the combo? If you used Software Update, get the Combo updater instead and re-apply:

  • When I am re-installing the Mac OSX snow leopard onto an older Mac I run into the window that says select the disk where you want to install Mac OSX but nothing is there to select

    I am trying to re-install the Mac OSX snow leopard onto an older I mac with a new hard drive.  I run into the "select the disk "where you want to install Mac OSX but there is nothing in the window to select. Any advice?

    After you install a new hard drive, you need to boot to another drive to initialize it to MAC OS Extended (journaled) format and create the partition(s) on the drive. You do this using Disk Utility. Otherwise, the mac operating install process doesn't see a formatted disk to install to.

    If you have a Mid 2010 model: Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery. If later then see below:
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    If you have an earlier model:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Dreamweaver CS3 and Mac OSX Leopard 10.5

    I did an Erase and Install of Mac OSX Leopard 10.5... so it's
    a clean install.
    I installed the Adobe Web Premium software (full, not
    upgrade).
    Dreamweaver has been CRASH city. Try to merge some tables...
    crash. Try to copy past a graphic from one page to another...
    crash. Try to connect to a MySQL database.... crash. Trying to work
    on a website I must have had 10 crashes in the last hour.
    Is there an upgrade needed to CS3 to work correctly on
    Leopard?

    David thanks so very much!!!
    After hours of looking for a solution i went into the
    following folders
    Mac HD/Users/[user]/Library/Application
    Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver 9/Configuration
    Mac HD/Users/[user]/Library/Application
    Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver 9/configuration-1
    removed the files as you said above
    MacFileCache[random_numbers].dat
    and hey presto, restarted Dreamweaver and it loaded, but for
    one time only, then the problem started again where it would tell
    me there is an ftp error and cannot connect to the remote host,
    then when i clicked ok, it would tell me there as an eror trying to
    load an empty document.
    My problems started after upgrading leopard MacOSX 10.5.
    However, it seems that this problem is persistant everytime i
    restart Dreamweaver, do you know how i can permanantly solve this
    and why its being caused?
    Thanks
    Derek

  • HT1338 After reloading OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard iMac wont install updates

    iMac wont update after reinstalling OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard

    If I recall correctly the gray bar could indicate that a firmware update is installing, or that the system is checking the hard drive.
    I've run out of suggestion since without the Install DVD's we can't boot the system to run Disk Utility in order to verify the hard drive. It might be a good idea to give Apple a call to see if they can help you get a set of replacement install discs.
    The other option is to find another working Mac and connect the two systems via a compatible Firewire cable. Once connected turn on your iMac with the issue and hold down the 't' key in order to place the iMac into the Target Disk Mode. This should allow your other Mac system to mount your iMac's hard drive as an external volume. If nothing else it would allow you to backup your important files.

  • I have installed the most recent version of Snow Leopard on my MAC, and I am trying to install Mountain Lion from the Apple Store.  It will not install, because it says I do not have 2GB of memory, even though I have over 200GB available.  Please help.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    One thing is the memory, and another thing is the hard disk space. You are telling me that you have 200 GB of free space on the hard disk, but the App Store is telling you that you have to install 2 GB of memory or more on your Mac if you want to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
    First of all, open  > About this Mac > More Info, and copy "Model Identifier" here, so we can know what Mac you have got and how much memory you can install.
    We recommend to buy the memory in OWC or Crucial (Crucial is cheaper and offers the same compatibility warranty as OWC) because you won't probably have any problem with the memory you buy there

  • How do I re-install my Mac OSX Server from scratch

    Hi,
    I have purchased two MacMini Servers with 10.6 OSX Server software pre-installed.
    I have changed the organization as our company name changed and run into license issues.
    I want to re-install the Mac OSX Server software and start from scratch. How do I go about this. I tried yesterday for many hours to do so and the new installs are still running into duplicate license issues and other issues. What is the best approach to do re-install? I am willing to erase the internal Hard Disk and boot (with an external DVD optical drive) if that is the best way to go. What are the steps?
    I have the original CDs or DVDs and have extra, external hard disks to do a Time Machine backup, etc.
    Thanks,
    Don

    If you are looking to do a nuke and pave of the system, and you have an external optical drive, then yes, that is likely the most direct method. Connect the optical drive, insert the installation DVD, and reboot the system targeting the optical disk as the boot volume (you can do this by holding down the C key or the Option key during startup).
    Now, if you do not have an optical drive, you can put the installation disk into another Mac running 10.6 and use the Remote Install Mac OS X application in your Utilities folder.
    Hope this helps

    On your friend's computer with an internet connection, log into the Mac App Store with your ID and download Yosemite from the Purchases section of the Mac App Store. The make a bootable USB install media using

    Then boot from that on your computer and install
