Have Mac OS X 10.4.11; bought Quickbooks and it requires 10.6; updated to 10.6 but can't install because it won't open without 10.5

Have 10.4.11; bought Quickbooks and it wants 10.6; upgraded to 10.6 but can't install because it won't open without 10.5. Don't see upgrade for 10.5 in download list.

Hi Loraine,
Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) was between Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).  If your Quickbooks program indicates it requires Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and you've installed that, then you've done what you can (you can't install 10.5 when you already have 10.6 installed...you are already more up to date).
It sounds like you are having an issue with the Quickbooks program so you may wish to contact those that make / support that application.
Cheers.

  • I have mac os x 10.6.8. The system preferences doesn't show java at all. How can I install java please?

    Hi! 
    I have mac os x 10.6.8. The system preferences doesn't show java at all. How can I install java please?

    Don't change your story now. You did not say through Apple, you first gave a link to this site,
    http://www.java.com/en/download/apple.jsp
    You said, "Go there and download the latest version of Java"
    that plainly says,
    "Mac OS X Version 10.6 and below
    Use Software Update available on the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac."
    This corroborates me saying that Java for Mac OS 10.6 is done through Software Update, no where else.
    If any Mac OS 10.6 user does not have Java on their Mac, they get it from Apple just as the link you provided shows it is from Apple. Not Oracle. You have provided the evidence that plainly contradicts yourself.
    This is your second link that is to Apple.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1573
    Just to go over this again. Software Update not only updates Java to the latest, but if Java does not exist at all, SU will install it from scratch. And in doing so will be the latest version.
    Providing a link to Oracle's site is useless information that does not get Java installed on a Mac running 10.6.

  • I downloaded Firefox, but can't install because I "don't have permission to have all the" something. This is my personal laptop.

    I wait until the download is finished, but when I try to drag the icon to the folder, it says I don't have permission to have all the info (not a direct quote). This happened yesterday when I was trying to upgrade, so today I trashed all the aliases and icons and tried to start over, but the same thing happened.

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
    Install the new version that you have downloaded.
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

    You can install CS5 directly on your computer.  You will be asked to enter an eligible serial number during the installation process.  This is when you will want to enter the CS2 serial number.

  • I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update

    I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update so I can use the store.

    If Software Update is offering the update then it would be compatible with your model.  Unfortunately, you haven't provided us with any information on your hardware that would enable us to determine if it really is too old.
    If you really wish to disable the update alert then the next time Software Update opens, select the update in the list then select "Ignore update" from SU's Update menu.

    I have Mac mini 2.0/2x2gb/2x500/AP/BT, and i forgot the username and the password. How can I resolve this problem?

    The username is the name attached to your Home folder - /Users/username/. If you don't know the password then it can be changed but you will need the installer DVD that came with the computer for the installed version of OS X. You have not provided that information.

  • Re: New Garage Band - I have Mac OS X 10.6.8, Snow Leopard, and Garage Band 11.  If I download/install the new GB, will I lose GB 11?  And will it run on Snow Leopard?

    Re: New Garage Band - I have Mac OS X 10.6.8, Snow Leopard, and Garage Band 11.  If I download/install the new GB, will I lose GB 11?  And will it run on Snow Leopard?

    then had to find out (same as with this issue) that I presently have other software that will not run on Maverics.
    You could create a clone of your drive with all your current software, so you could continue to work with your Snowleopard software by booting from the clone, and upgrade your main system to Mavericks, if your computer supports Mavericks.    This way, you could have both, if the new features of Mavericks are interesting to you -  e.g-, iCloud syncing of multiple Macs, new sharing features, and for GarageBand automatic drummers and arpeggiators.

  • I own two i macs. I bought and installed Lion on one computer. How can I install Lion on the other computer without additional charge?

    I own two I macs. I bought and installed Lion on one computer. How can I install Lion on the other compute without additional charge?

    If it's the same email address Apple registration on both, use the 2nd computer and go to the App Store and find Lion. If different, use the second computer but log in to the App store with the address you used on the first go round. The buy button should instead say install. Then go through the same process again.

    Mac OS X does not offer a Clean install option.    If by clean install you mean erasing the system, that is not recommended unless:
    1. You bought a used/refurbished Mac and there is software on it without any accompanying discs, and it is older than July 20, 2011 in model release:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6413
    Or if it is at or newer, then erase it if it has applications installed that would not have been prebundled with it and you have no CDs for those applications.
    You don't want someone else's software keys, or accounts, or to be running unlicensed software.  At and newer Macs offer a built-in internet restore for their software with a command-R boot that lets you erase the system with Disk Utility, and then install from the internet the latest operating system.
    2. You have a hardware issue and want to eliminate possible software issues as the cause when troubleshooting a problem all at once.
    Issues affecting a new install have to be isolated before you attempt it.   Unless you know it is software or hardware, erasing may only mask other problems.

  • Photoshop shut down while I drew a picture, now the file is broken and I can´t fix it, photshop won´t open the file and I have tried repearing it with different programs. What should I do?

    Photoshop shut down while I drew a picture, now the file is broken and I can´t fix it, photshop won´t open the file and I have tried repearing it with different programs. What should I do? I spent 6 hours on the pic and I dont even have a screenshot or anything.

    You don't even say what platform you are on, or any other details that may help others assist you.
    If you are on a Mac, try opening your file in GraphicConverter (they have a demo version) if that doesn't open it, nothing will, in my experience.
    I assume you have tried Adobe Illustrator already to recover.
    You may also have a JPEG of your complete file (flattened) in Bridge Cache.
    On the Mac you'd find it in your User ~Library (NOT the Root Library ):
    Users > yourname > Library > Caches > Adobe > Bridge CS6 > Cache > 1024 > jpg(fileID)number Filename.psd.jpg
    The user ~Library is hidden, but you can make it visible for an moment or two.  Ask Apple if you don't know how.

  • I have recently changed from a macbook to macbook pro and all my files were saved on time machine but some won't open. It says I need permission.. How do I open them?

    I have recently changed from a macbook to macbook pro and all my files were saved on time machine but some won't open. How do I open them?

    Are you trying to open the backup files via the Finder or an application?  If so, that's not how you should access your backups -- use the "Star Wars" display, per #15 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    How did you get your stuff on the new Mac? 
    It sounds like you may have skipped the offer to transfer it when your Mac first started up, created a user account, then used the Migration Assistant app instead.  If so, that may be the problem;  doing it that way means you end up with an extra user account, and can lose permission to files on other volumes, especially backups.
    Please clarify just what you're seeing, and whether you still have the old Mac.
