G5 tower, dual 1.8 power pc (can I replace with "INTEL" processors)

Is it possible or worth it to replace my G5 towers "POWER PC" processor with new "INTEL" processor ???

Hi Tellastrat, and a warm welcome to the forums!
AS Niel says no, you'd need all the other parts including Logic Board, RAM, Power Supply, Graphics Card, & een a new case, or a lot of machining on the G5's case to fit everything... they only look similar outside... sorry.

    Need full model number and Intel HD version (4000, 4600?) and which port you are using. Generally HDMI output is capped at full HD; 1920 x 1080. 

  • I have a newer MacBook Pro with an AMD processor.  It is my understanding that Parallels can only be used on Mac's with Intel Processors.  Is that true and if so does anyone have recommendations about how to have a windows side to my Mac

    Then it either is a pirate clone or you are misinformed.
    Apple Computer has never used AMD processors in its products.
    However, the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is a Radeon unit, which is an AMD subsidiary. Parallels, VMWare, VirtualBox will all work fine with the Intel Core i7 or i5 CPU that powers the Mac, and use the AMD Radeon GPU that drives the displays.

  • Does the rubber covering can be replaced with a new one?

    Early this morning my macbook's rubber cover is lifted by itself and somehow expanded because it won't fit anymore. What should I do? It really looks ugly because I can the see metal plate. I tried to search the net about this issue but I can't find an answer. I'm thinking of having it replaced with a rubber cover but I'm not sure where I can find one. Thank you for your help.

  • I have a G5 Power Mac with dual 1.8 processors. I recently upgraded the software fro 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 in order to get an iPad 2. Now my Adobe Photoshop 7 won't work any longer. All the newer Phtoshop versions only work with Intell processors. Does anyone

    ..know of an older Photoshop version that will work with my processors and system 10.5.8?
    Thanks,

    I believe I had this issue with PS7 when I first upgraded from OS 9 to OS X 10.2 Jaguar.
    Couldn't get PS 7 to launch at all.
    I ended up having to update all of my Adobe apps to the CS edition to be sure every Adobe app functioned without a hitch.
    I am not sure where you'll find older versions of Adobe software, though.
    You could try and contact Adobe direct to see if they have any older versions on disc left in stock or not.
    Short or that I  really do not know.
    PS CS 4 was the last universal version that works with PPC Macs.
    Pixelmator used to be available for 10.5 Leopard, but it's no longer available for PPC Macs, either.
    http://www.pixelmator.com/
    Could contact them to see if they have the older version still available on disc or as a download.
    This is a pay app, also.
    Another pay app that may work for you is Graphic Converter.
    http://www.lemkesoft.com/
    The other options are the ones already mentioned in the previous reply.
    Other than Pixelmator, the other offerings are quite limited compared to PS.
    Here's the link to Seashore.

    A free open source Unix replacement for PS is The Gimp

    You need to install X11 in order to use this app.
    If you installed 10.5, you'll need to check your Applications folder to see if X11 was installed by default.
    If not you'll need to go back to your OS X 10.5 install discs and do a custom install and just install X11 from disc.
    This will just add the additional program and extensions and will not erase your installation of OS X 10.5.

  • HT3152 I have triple play cable service. Phone service is internet based. i pay monthly charge for cable provider modem. I also want to use modem for my Apple ipad2. Can I replace with another modem that will support internet based phone as well as ipad2?

    I have cable triple play service. Phone service ios internet based and depends on cable provider modem. I pay monthly charge for modem. I also want to use modem for ipad2. Is there any modem that can support both internet based phone as well as ipad2?

    If I understand you correctly, I have the same configuration.  My modem supports Internet and phone service and my television service bypasses the modem.  It does not do any routing.  It has a single Ethernet port and I plugged in an external router with a WiFi radio - Apple Airport Express.  Works like a champ.
    Configuration of the Express was difficult.  I had to plug it in to AC power and to the modem.  Then, I opened up Airport Utility and had to click "yes" for each recommendation.  Then I had to really think hard to come up with a WiFi password.  Took me a horrendous thirty seconds from start to finish!

  • Dead motherboard p6130y. can I replace with same mb

    computer doesnt boot. Nothing after power on. Looks like several suspicious caps(bujlging). PS and Drive good.
    Coulld have been electrical (lightning) shock. Found replacement bd on e-bay, same specs as this one. pegatron m2n78-la
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    If you do not have any reservations about buying on EBay, that is what I would do.  Just be certain that you get the same version of the m2n78-la as what you have.  There are serveral iterations that are similar and all carry the "m2n78-la" designation.  The specific one is listed as M2N78-LA (Violet)
    There are
    1) M2N78-LA (Violet)
    2) M2N78-LA (VIOLET6-GL8E )
    3) M2N78-LA (Violet-GL8E)
    In further inspections, it maybe that #1 and #3 are the same.  If you can get the numbers from the tag of the present motherboard, that would help in the search.
    Assuming you are skilled enough to transfer the hardware from the old to the new, you should be good to go.  Remember to clean the CPU and cooler and to apply new thermal paste on same, before powering up the rebuilt rig.

  • Installed Windows 7 64 bit in Error - Can I replace with 32 bit Version?

    Hello, last night I installed Windows 7 via bootcamp on my 20" iMac. All went well until I tried to install the Boot Camp support software and had a message saying that Boot Camp 64 bit is not supported on this machine. I did think for a while that I was stuck in my new Windows partition without a way of getting back to OSX as I hadn't been able to install the Boot Camp software but luckily this morning when holding the relevant key on the keyboard during start up I had the option of selecting my mac HD (phew!).
    My question is what is the best workaround for this? Can I boot in to the Windows partition and install the 32 bit version over the 64 bit version or should I delete my new partition and start again from scratch? The 64 bit version didn't seem completely stable (there was no sound and the screen resolution didn't seem quite right) but I did have a multitude of updates waiting to install. Thanks for any help.

    Boot from 32-bit version and do a clean install.
    You can even begin while in Windows.
    But before you do that, copy the contents of your OS X DVD's Boot Camp to a folder.
    Find the file BOOTCAMP64.msi
    Run as administrator and use "troubleshoot compatibility mode" via control + click.
    Then that should run.
    At least give it a try. I was/am in same boat (unsupported, does not support 64-bit version) like MANY others. And it does work. Otherwise I would be stuck with only using 1.9GB RAM and other limitations.

  • What can be replaced with FoxTab, since it is not available for FireFox 5.0?

    Is there any version of FoxTab available for FireFox 5.0?

    It says:
    <blockquote>"Bloomind FT DeepDark 2" is a theme that has been created to transform the look of Firefox 4 for <b>Windows</b> users. It has been specially designed for Seven, but rendering is relatively accurate on XP and Linux (<b>I can t test it on MAC</b>, but for those who would like to try it anyway on that platform, <u>you can force download and install it</u>).</blockquote>
    So try to save that file via the right-click context menu.

  • With TMG EOL what can I replace with?

    My TMG 2010 is used mainly for reverse proxy for internal .NET applications, OWA, etc.  What MS products or third party products are available to replace this functionalility?

    Hi,
    Web Application Proxy in Windows Server 2012 R2 has some capabilities like TMG for basic reverse publishing, you can also use IIS AAR.
    For more functionality you must use third party products like Blucoat, Checkpoint, Sophos UTM

  • Z22 has died. Can I replace with Zire 31?

    Z22 died and attempts to recharge (via reset and both the computer & wall unit chargers) to no avail. Never happy with Z22. PDA is my primary interest and Zire 31 looks like a good replacement.  However, can't find any information via the forum searches.  Any comments or suggestions? 
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    Don't let Palm's misleading model numbers fool you.  The Zire 31 is not better than the Z22 in my opinion.  
    Palm devices could either have volatile memory, meaning when the batteries dies you lose all installed programs and data, or they could have non-volatile memory.  
    Your Z22 has non-volatile memory and the 31 has volatile, so the Z22 is better in that feature.
    Your Z22 might just have a bad internal battery.  There is another thread about that with a link to pictures to take apart the Z22.  You might want to check that out.
    If you don't like that option and if you want a bigger screen and also non-volatile memory go for the Tungsten E2.  They are sometimes $50 to $60 used on ebay.

  • Saving Power on Linux Laptops/Desktops with Intel

    Hi,
    I have read a german news article on heise.de (http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/96314). It's about saving power on Linux systems using Intel cpu/chipsets.
    The corresponding website is here (http://www.lesswatts.org/), it's from the former powertop.org people, but have much more general information than the old website (which still exists, because powertop is a tool for finding programs which have too much cpu calls).
    There are interesting topics for laptop and desktop users there. So have fun while you are reading it.
