G4 can not find Mac Tiger 10.4 upgrade disk

I am running 10.3.9 and trying to upgrade to tiger 10.4. When i put the disk in absolutely nothing happens. my computer can not even find it. I normally dont have this problem. How do i install this. Also will this disk work with my computer? it is Mac OS Tiger upgrade dvd with Xcode 2, which i have no idea what that means. any help is appreciated!

phnxxx4, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Is the DVD you have black or gray?
Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store but is still available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753). For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A and M9639Z/A . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray).
Also check this web store http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521
Possible Alternative - OS X Tiger 10.4 Upgrade DVD $74.95

  • I can not find Mac Mail resource folder

    Step 1
    Open "Finder" and navigate to the stationery "Resources" folder. By default this is located in "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Apple/Mail/Stationery/ Apple/Contents/Resources. Make sure you are in the hard drive library folder and not the user's library folder.
    I can not find this path. Below is what i do get????  I held the "OIption" key and under "GO" to get to Library

    That is your user Library.
    Triple click the line below, press ctrl then click on the highlighted line
    /Library/Application Support/Apple/Mail/Stationery/Apple/Contents/Resources/Stationery

  • Can not find itunes library on recent upgraded computer.

    We recently had our computer upgraded. Downloaded itunes software. When opened itunes library, noticed mostly songs from windows came into library and with multipole repeats. Deleted them, hooked up IPOD nano and all my songs from it deleted. H..E..L..P.. NOw I can not find my library as it was before it go worked on.

    If you do not have a backup of your iTunes library from your computer you pretty well are out of luck.

  • Can not find recovery manager and have no disks to even start.

    Ever since I got my laptop fixed I have been having a lot of problems My system was windows 7 and is now windows 8.
    First it will not let me complete an update and on the screen it says it is reverting files.
    Second when I first start up my computor it will not start up it does not do anything I even waited 1 hour today to see
    if it would. and it still did not I turned it off and restarted it to get it to come on. I also even waited almost three hours to try and install updates, and the same error message that I talked about earlier appears, but before that message it had a message saying that it would be two days to complete the install the updates is this even right.
    The last thing that I tryed to do well I watched on you tube how to do a system recovery, but I need the disks that I do not have so after watching the video I was very disapointed to find out that I do not even have a recovery manager so this computer is just giving me a whole bunch of problems, and I would hate to send it back yet again, because of this.
    I am looking for another job right now and want to get busy and get my resume together and job applications together, because in about 4 days I go back to work and the job that I have now I do not get much time to do anything. So please help and I would like to do it all on line if posible. Thank you.

    You have contradictions here.
    The specs indicate that the computer came with Windows 8 installed, did you downgrade to Windows 7.  If you did the recovery partition is certainly gone.  Now you say you have Windows 8, how did you get it installed.
    What update are you talking about, is it just one or many?
    You say, " and the same error message that I talked about earlier appears, but before that message it had a message saying that it would be two days to complete the install the updates is this even right."  Where did you get that message from, no way will it take two days to install an update.
    If you desire recovery disks and If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144, and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.
    Otherwise http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/support.html

  • Help?  Can not find external hard drive after upgrading to 10.6.3

    I upgraded my iMac to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and now my external hard drive does not appear.  Not sure what to do.

    It is powered (the light is on).  I was uploading photos from the drive yesterday, so it worked perfectly fine before the upgrade to 10.6.8 (which I did during the night).  Is there anything else to try before I move it to another computer to see if it works?  Again, thanks.

  • Can't find my downloaded movies after upgrade ipad2 iOS 5

    After aan easy upgrade to ios5.1.1 I can not find my downloaded movies after upgrade ipad2 iOS 5.

    You are looking in the videos app - correct?
    If they are not in there - try this ....
    Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. If a movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should hopefully start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK and if the rest of your movies have appeared.
    If they still do not show up - sync them back from iTunes on your computer.

    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
              •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 993
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
              •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 587
              •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
    Thanks to dpepper...

  • Mac mini can not find the NAS

    In my network I have a Mac mini, AirPort Extreme base station and a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo v2. Everything is connected by cable. The problem is that the Mac mini can not find the NAS. Mac mini is looking for wirelessly connected devices, type TimeCapsule. How do I get my Mac mini to find the NAS and set the NAS as a source of data storage?

    I have a ReadyNAS and use it as a Time Machine destination with no problems, even over WiFi. The ReadyNAS and Mac are both on the same LAN (even though the Mac is on WiFi), please check to see if your WiFi is on a different LAN to the Ethernet side of things, I have my Airport set to bridging mode so both sides of the AirPort count as the same LAN.
    Next you need to check you have actually configured Time Machine in the ReadyNAS, as shipped it is initially turned off. You need to go to the ReadyNAS web management interface (FrontView) and then click on Backup on the left, and then select Time Machine. You also need to make sure Bonjour is enabled for the ReadyNAS, this is accessed by clicking on Services on the left and then selecting Discovery Services, make sure all the Bonjour options are ticked on.

  • I need to reinstall Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for MAC, but can not find it online.

    I upgraded my MACBook Pro to Yosemite and now receive an error message that I need to reinstall Acrobat in order to run updates.  However, I can not find Acrobat 9 Pro for MAC online.  Please help.

    That is correct Steelgrrl you will want to locate your installation media and copy the installation files to a USB drive on a computer which does have an optical drive.
    Alternately if you purchased from Adobe directly and choose the download option at the time of purchase then the download will be available under your account.  You can find more details at Find a download link on Adobe.com.

    I can't find iMovie on my mac any where though it says on the app store it is installed I can not find it to open and use, someone help ?!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Open a Finder window, select Applications in the sidebar and look for iMovie. Make sure there are no external disks connected, and if so, disconnect them, open the App Store and install iMovie.
    You can also use Spotlight to look for iMovie, so press Command and Space keys and type iMovie

    I have transferred a load of files from my PC to my iMac using the migration assistant.  The message on both machines say that the process was successful but I can not find the files on the mac.  Any ideas?

    When you use Migration Assitant it creates another user account and puts your files there. Please log out of your normal account and log into the new account. Had you use Setup Assistant when it asked if you were migrating that would not have occured. You have a couple of options, combine the two accounts (not recommended) or start over, use Setup Assistant and have everything in one user account. Here is a link to Pondin's guide for Lion Setup Assistant tips however if you want to combine the two accounts he has addressed that in
