Has anyone installed the GIMP?

Has anyone installed the GIMP on their iBook? I have a couple questions because of the way their site is worded:
http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/
In the requirements section are they just explaining why it doens't run on version 9 or earlier? It almost makes it sound like you have to go download that stuff (which is why I feel stupid for asking this). :-/
This site, http://gimp-app.sourceforge.net/ , which is the first site they list on the places to get GIMP, makes it sound like the application there is all you have to download, except for the extra install from the OS X Install Disk. Would that be all I needed?
I'd love to have this program on my iBook, so if anyone who has installed it could walk me through it, that'd be great.
Thanks,
Mandy

Hi Mandy,
I myself have not tried GIMP.app because I have lost the urge to use X11. In order to use it, you will to download X11 from your OS X disk and install X11; not to be confused with X11SDK. I bet you can find a bunch of GIMP and X11 users in Mac OS X Technologies > Unix forum.
You may want to look at this previous post.

  • Has anyone installed the new firmware?

    Has anyone installed the new firmware yet? And have you noticed any issues with it? I'm weary of installing Apple's firmware updates after how terrible the last one was (I'm sure everyone remembers the hdd hangs). Also, Apple's trackpad update was terrible as well for the first few weeks it was out.

    Because I was one of the users affected last time.

    Not just a tiny amount of people. Lots of people had this issue. Firmware downgrade is what solved it, until Apple released an upgrade of the upgrade. I just wanted to check if anyone was having issues with this firmware before I upgraded.
    And I'm not sure why people are getting so offended. It's a simple question of "did upgrading to the new firmware screw up your computer", and requires a yes or a no answer. The last two times I installed an update it messed with my computer, so it makes sense for me to be weary. You would be as well if you were in the same situation. And I have not yet heard anything about this firmware, but I haven't had time to check out what people have said. I'm in med school and I'm usually fairly busy.

  • Has anyone installed the Verizon In-Home agent on Moutain Lion?

    I am having a lot of trouble with Verizon telephone service and they want me to install Verizon In-home Agent on my MacBook Air. Has anyone had any trouble with that app? I have Verizon Freedom Essentials phone service, a misnomer to say the least.

    From the FIOS area in a simluar thread..
    i like the online version of the app at www.verizon.com/repair  
    you can do a lot of the functions of the app without all the bloatware.
    and
    As other have said it does something, it waste resources.  Not sure on the MAC, but on PC's it has been none to drive at least one cpu to 100% (If you only have one its really bad).  And the number of functions it does that you might ever want to do is minimal.
    Personally I recommend that you uninstall it, and make sure you get all pieces of it.

  • Has anyone installed the new galaxy s3 update?

    Just curious if anyone has installed the software update for the Samsung Galaxy S3 and if they ran into any issues?

    Installed fine. However, I was disappointed to see it was not KitKat 4.4. Otherwise, no problems here.

  • Has anyone installed the samsung 840 pro in MBP mid 2009?

    Hi All,
    My macbook doesnt work anymore because the HDD gave up. I now ordered the samsung 840 pro ssd. My mbp doesn't start up anymore and all I can see is the file boz and a ? mark. I have the CD that came with the macbook. Is it hard to install the software or should I just take it to apple and let them do the job?
    Also, I only bought the 128 GB since I cannot afford the 256g. I have a seagate 1 TB external hardrive. Can anyone please tell me what to do to set all downloads and other documents to save in the external so I am not using all the 128 g

    JS28,
    I installed a Samsung 840 PRO SSD in my Mid 2010 MacBook Pro. It’s not hard to install the software onto your SSD, though it will take some time to do so. I don’t know how much Apple would charge for that service, so the time vs. money tradeoff is something that you’ll need to decide.
    If you decide to do it yourself, what you’ll need to do is to boot your MacBook Pro from the grey installation DVD marked “Mac OS X Install DVD” that originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro; to do that, hold down the C key as you power up. Once you’ve booted up from the DVD, you’ll need to run Disk Utility to format your SSD as “Mac OS Extended (Journaled)”. Once it’s been formatted, you can then install the version of Mac OS X that is on that DVD, either Leopard or Snow Leopard. Once your MacBook Pro’s original version of Mac OS X is installed on the SSD, you can then reboot from the SSD, and optionally install the iLife applications from the “Applications Install DVD” — the other grey installation DVD that came with your MacBook Pro.
    Next, you’ll  need to upgrade or update your OS to Mac OS X 10.6.8, which in turn will allow you to access the App Store, so that you can redownload Mountain Lion for installation. Once you’ve installed Mountain Lion on your SSD, it will then have the Mountain Lion recovery partition installed also.
    To ensure that your downloads and documents are saved to your external Seagate HDD, be sure to choose a location on that drive whenever you download a file or save a document. Each application that you use will probably need to be set to download/save to your external HDD, but each of them should remember that external HDD location for future downloads/saves.

  • Has anyone installed the new update to Itunes 7.3.1 sucessfully?

    I know people complain more often than they say thanks but having experienced the problems upgrading to 7.3.0 and resolving them with the help of this discussion forum I am hesitant to do another update for fear that I will lose more than I gain.
    So have people installed the latest update and been successful? Or were there problems for everyone?
    HP 720n   Windows XP  

    Troublefree upgrade from 7.3.0.x on an XP SP2 box, and two troublefree initial installs on a 32-bit Vista Ultimate box so far. (A separate set of issue on the Vista box required a restore from the the factory's recovery partition, hence the two different initial installs on the same Vista box.)

  • Has anyone installed the D5259a M70 driver in XP? MS gives warning that it is not logo'd.

    I'm looking at installing a D5259a M70 driver on a Lenovo T60 laptop as a temporary fix.  When I get to the end I get a warning from XP that the driver has not passed compatibility testing and could destabilize the system.  I've only found the one driver so far so would like to know that this has been done before with no ill effects. Thx.

    Well, well, well... Nothing has changed. Somehow or another Adobe has managed to truly take control of Windows 7.
    I updated Bridge or more correctly... The Cloud did and every files extension in Bridge had 'none' as the application. Lovely stuff. Now All I want to know is why did Adobe take control of Windows file manager and cause this much grief?
    I almost never use the clunky and often impossible to manage Bridge. Simple freeware... Irfanview is way more elegant than Bridge and 10 times more useful IMO.
    Well thanks for the heads up Curt. I never considered the full implication of giving Adobe the freedom to add and remove whatever they wanted to... Forget the don't fix what isnt broken thing... Just pour everything we've got in the cloud onto all the  members PCs, eh? Hard drives are cheap and hey, what are forums for when things go wrong if it isn't to keep Adobe informed of bugs they can silently fix and pour 'em back into the cloud as fixes.
    Ha,ha you just gotta love progress eh?
    This is really going to take on. I can see it now... For every mess up of a PC -- "THE CLOUD DID IT"!!!

  • Has anyone installed the Maxon C4DImporter.aex fix, which works, but still get the error "internal verification failure, Sorry" on a different user logon?

    internal verification failure, Sorry! {Unexpected FunctionBlock5flags for FunctionBlock4}
    (5027::53)
    This used to appear until I replaced the Maxon plugin as per Adobe's advice.  All seemed well, but then when a colleague logs on the same Windows 7 Enterprise machine they get the same error.
    How is this possible

    That worked once for a member of staff but then, strangley, never again.  However, even if this did work we need students to be able to get around this issue, but they can't run as administrator under our college policies.

    Has anyone had the "equals" key in the numeric pad stop working since installing the Boot Camp 3.3 update?

    I have been an ardent user of aperture for years now and got used to the great workflow. Ever since version 1 I have been enjoying working with aperture. It is the workflow that kept me from changing.
    I got a new MacPro 12 GB ram, 4TB HDD my library mostly indexed files sits on a raided 2TB for maximum of comfort. I did this in an effort to keep me from writing the posts I writing lately. I do not have the time rally to do this but reality is something different.
    Today I am working on a job I need to finish quickly and in aperture workflow manner. So I switched to full screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen mode and after pressing 'H' for the HUD my screen started flickering. please look at the video I posted in my flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mawas/4719742585/
    Now this is the second time this happened in a short time after I got a new mac and upgraded to 10.6.4! After the screen had jammed up : http://gallery.me.com/masuwa/100103 I needed to hard boot my mac I am getting nervous!

  • Has anyone got the QT stand alone installer to work?

    OK, Has anyone got the QT stand alone installer to work that has a problem getting IT6 to work also?
    You can look at my original thread and see what I've been through: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=262511&tstart=0
    and now am stuck with an old version of QT and no version of IT! Can't update iPod, can't do crap. How slow can Apple be to fixing whatever bug is in IT6?! It's obvious that alot of people are having trouble and many of us are having the exact same or similar problems. Apparently a call to support is no help.
    Mark

    I didget QT stand alone to install. I had the error -3 message. I unistalled itunes and quicktime. Then I reinstalled using my orginal ipod disc. I then was asked to upgrade to ipod 6 or something. Which I did. Still got the error -3. Then I got the QT stand alone to install by it self and every thing works great now. There was some thing stating if I wanted to "Unistall QT for windows" I said yes. There were some error associated with removing "QT for Windows" during the install but after that it works great. It took something like 20 min. for it to download when it took itunes only 7 min. to download earlier.

  • Has anyone upgraded the Ironport ESA to 8.5.6-074 and had the issues of Raid status showing unknown?

    Has anyone upgraded the Ironport ESA to 8.5.6-074 and had the issues of Raid status showing unknown? After we upgraded our appliances we are having issues with our ESA appliances showing the RAID status as unknown. When we reported the issue to CISCO we were updated there were no issues reported at all. Could anyone please confirm if you have experienced the same issue.

  • Has anyone experience the "cricket" sound on an iMac pro ?

    Has anyone experienced the "cricket" sound that seems to come when connected to the internet?  It is disquieting ....

    Thanks a ton for your quick response, Todd...
    I do have the playback resolution set at 1/8th and the paused resolution set at 1/4, and the footage seems to handle just fine. I don't know the specifics of the computers, but I did notice that they had only 4GB ram, a single HD, and they don't have a GPU enabled graphics card installed.
    I played around a bit with some of the footage on one a little while ago and it seems to play pretty smoothly (though certainly not as good as my editing system in my office!)
    I don't think I've got any further questions, but if I do I'll be sure to let you know.

  • Has anyone installed Lion on mid-2007 MacBook?

    I have a mid-2007 MacBook that I have not yet installed Lion on.  Has anyone installed it on a similar MacBook?  If so, how does it run? 
    I have a brand new MacBook Pro running Lion, so I am familar with it.  I am just curious if it will be really slow on the MacBook.
    Thanks.
    Thom

    I think it depends on what you need to do with the computer. I have a 2007 black macbook with 4gb ram. Most stuff works ok, although everything is noticeably slower. But some stuff, Aperture in particular, barely work at all - aperture is almost unuseably slow. So be forewarned! And please, don't believe anyone who says it'll run just as well as snow leopard - it doesn't.
