HELP! Mac OSX 10.4.6 on iMac

I INSTALLED THE LATEST VERSION OF FLASH PLAYER ON MY MAC. WITH ANY BROWSER: FIREFOX, SAFARI, AOL, CERTAIN FACEBOOK APPLICATIONS WILL NOT WORK. THESE APPS DON'T COMPLETELY LOAD. ON MY OLDER NOTEBOOK WITH OS 10.5X, THERE'S NO PROBLEM. THIS VERSION OF DOESN'T WORK WITH A LOT OF FB APPLICATIONS. WHAT SHOULD I DO? THANKS Thanks.

Hi,
please don't write with CHAPSLOCK on.
Maybe it's not the flash version but the browser version. As I understand the system requirements you're limited to Safari 3 and Firefox 2 on OS 10.4.

I just installed mac osx snow leopard in my iMac. windows freeze and unfreezes.

Help needed again. I just installed mac os x snow leopard on my imac. sometimes when I open a window it freezes and then suddenly unfreezes until the next time. the tool bar does not identify what program is opened when frozen. It says finder instead
Thanks for everyones help. It has made a huge difference. I hope this is the end of my issues with this new OS.

Have you run Software Update several times to ensure you've picked up all available updates after upgrading to Snow Leopard?

Mac OSX 10.2.8 G3 iMac Question...

Hello. My dad has had this old blueberry sitting around the house for years. He wants to have it connect to our wireless network. I know that airport won't work. How would this be done? Any help would be appreciated. And help discussed in simple terms would be even better! Thank you a lot. ♥

Internet Sharing is a feature available at least back to Panther (not sure if Jaguar had it).
Open System Preferences to the Sharing pane. In Panther and Tiger, that pane has a separate tab called Internet; on Leopard, it on the main list of things you can share. Go there. To share the Internet connection through a Mac with Airport, make the settings for Internet Sharing say:
Share your connection from Airport to computers using Ethernet.
For Panther and Tiger, click the Start button; on Leopard, it starts when you check the checkbox.
If the Mac with Airport to share is fairly recent, just use a regular Ethernet cable to connect the Ethernet port between the two Macs. The Network Ethernet port settings on the receiving Mac should be the default ("Configure using DHCP") setting.

Continuous Kernel Panic and heavy instability for my iMac Mac OSX 10.6.8

Two or three days after the second upgrade to Mac OSX 10.6.8 my iMac started with instability.
Hour after hour the system stability degenerate affecting all the applications, the Finder and at the end with all the user's accounts of my family.
The problem started with Mozilla that was unable to launch flash player on youtube asking for an update, I switched to Safari, but after a first video without problem I obtained the same result (the plugin stopped to work). Then Firefox and Safari did become unstable and crashed all the time also looking to other website. Nor other application was affected at that moment.
I downloaded and installed Google Chrome. After few minutes of normal behaviour the same thing happened to Chrome. It doesn't crash but it is impossible to see any single web page (session crash).
In few minutes any single application started to become unstable, crashing all the time.
Finally a grey shutter appears on the screen with written in different languages something like: you have to reboot manually your system maintaining the power button for a while.
It seems as a strong Virus (on a mac? it is possible? and no one report this in internet?).
Hour after hour the situation becomes unmanageable. Finder crashes, Dock crashes if only I try to ope application folder and restart, antivirus are stopped or crashes when I try to make a full scan of the disc. When some application attempt to use the network it crashes.
I did try to use Time Machine to restore the system at the date 25/7, when all worked fine for sure. Nothing. Time Machine crashes as soon as I try to restore the system at the date.
At the end I - desperate - took the original DVD of my iMac and make several attempts to reinstall all tfrom scratch.
Nothing to do. A strange message appears: "The Mac OS X Installation couldn't be completed" and an error log appears.
Let me summarize the message in the log (what I think is relevant):
Process: LCA
Path: /System/Installation/CDIS/LCA.app/Contents/MacOS/LCA
COde Type: X86-64 (Native)
Application Specific Information:
*** error for object =0x....: incorrect checksum for fread object - object was probably modified after being fread.
Thread 0 crashed:
< follows threads items reverse history >
It seems to me that this means there is a strong Virus affecting my Mac. But please correct me if I'm wrong.
What appear strange to me is the fact that the OS X installation program cannot proceed. How it is possible if the source code is read from a DVD?
If a virus affect my iMac it should be activated by normal bootstrap of the system, not with a boot from CD.
Please help me. Now I finished ideas.

I suggest you might try some maintenance on the system:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. 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 your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Delete caches to resolve some startup problems:
Boot into single-user mode. After startup is completed you will be in command line mode and should see a prompt with a cursor positioned after it. At the prompt enter the following then press RETURN after each commandline:
/sbin/fsck -fy
If you receive a message that says "***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****" then re-run the command until you receive a message that says "** The volume (name_of_volume) appears to be OK." If you re-run the command more than seven times and do not get the OK message, then the drive cannot be repaired this way.
If you were successful then enter:
/sbin/mount -uw /
rm -rf /System/Library/Caches/*
rm -rf /Library/Caches/*
reboot
I suggest you print out the above to be sure you do not make any errors when entering the commands. When in single-user mode you have 'root' access, so it's important that you not make any mistakes.

Hi John,
thanks for your advice, I have actually been using the two links you provided,
yet they both lack support for the home user, and all suggest that the users have a static ip address, but this is sadly not the case.
has anyone used . http://www.dyndns.com/about/home_solutions.html
Does anyone use this service at home for their server and which settings did they use ?
This would at least let me think Im working along the right lines.
Im getting stuck with the Primary DNS questions along the setup route from apple setup. : (
thanks again
Yaddle.

Your Mac is definitely one of the supported models? http://www.apple.com/uk/osx/specs/
If so, what happens when you try to download? Is it a case of nothing happens? If so, take a look at the suggestions under 'Stalled Download' in this link:
http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/#slideid-23477 1
Also, some usrs have found that logging out of the Mac App Store and then back in again and starting over has kick-started the download. It seems that the 5+gb download can take a long time to give any feedback as to what's happening.

How can i fix this problem ?
En français: j'ai un IMac - Mac OSX version 10.4 et présentement je vois seulement des lignes verticales sur mon bureau et ma souris c'est-à-dire la flèche, bouge mais il y a un petit carré avec aussi des lignes verticales à sa droite. Je pense que ce bug est survenu lorsque j'étais sur Skype avec une amie et que par erreur j'ai cliqué sur l'image de la vidéo et peu à peu les lignes sont appurues et tout l'écran est envahie par ces lignes.
Comment corriger le problème ? Merci à l'avance.

Hello, sounds like Video card and/or heat problems.
Have you blown the dust out lately? Let it cool for an hour or so.
Get Temperature Monitor to see if it's heat related...

And/or iStat Pro...

One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode).

Hi,
Is there an iPhone involved ?
If not, what happens if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?

Please help, need to upgrade from 9.2.2 to osx 10.4 Tiger on imac g3 400 dv

Hello, I would greatly appreciate assistance to upgrade my operating system from 9.2.2 to osx 10.4.10. I have gotten the firmware upgrade installed to 4.1.9. Can anyone tell me what else I need to upgrade to have this computer able to install Tiger 10.4, on an imac g3 400 dv slot loading.....
Right now when I try to install the disc 10.4 using the option key at restart, it wont load the install disc. Any help would be appreciated , thank u in advance!!!!!!!

Hi, thank u for responding, my harddrive is 10 gigs, and my memory ram is only 64 megs, I ordered 2 512 mg from 18004memory.com and it didnt work , the computer said there was a memory issue. So I returned the memory back to 18004 memory.com...... I will neve ruse them again , because on their website they stated its guranteed to work and is compliant with imac 400 dv. They stated they will send me another set from another manufacturer, but to return the memory first.....
I know I meet all the requirements for tiger , except for the ram which apple says I need 256 mg,
But I was referring to any firmaware upgrades or bios upgrades or any of those type of programming upgrades to ready it for tiger, I know I installed the 4.19, and went from os 9.0 to its current 9.22, I think that alone was 5 upgrades. I think I might be missing an upgrade or maybe not. I will run the utility u posted and thank u for that.....
Apple told me that I can installl tiger 10.4.10 on this computer.
The install discs I bought on ebay state imac MAC osx install disc one and there is and install disc 2, it says AHT VERSION 3A127, and dated as produced in the year 2007. it colored grey , but doesnt have the black X like someone else posted it should have
Oh and it does open the files in 9.22, it does mount, and it does have folders,
Thank u for ur help as I progress to ultimately saving this imac....
many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have an iMac 5.1 with Mac OSX 10.6.8 and 2 GB memory and an L2 cache of 4 GB. lately I have been receiving error messages of " start up disk almost full; please delete files." is the start up disk the same thing as the hard drive?

I have an iMac 5.1 with Mac OSX 10.6.8 and 2 GB memory and an L2 cache of 4 GB. lately I have been receiving error messages of " start up disk almost full; please delete files." is the start up disk the same thing as the hard drive? I opened the hard drive and from the column on the left of the menu I've selected "search for" and under that " all images" then "all documents" I've deleted a few files from each. Are documents and images that I have deleted from here also deleted from the folders on my desktop?

You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Delete any other mail in your Junk folders. Also, look through your Sent Mail to see if there is anything that can be deleted.
Other things you can do to gain space.
Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!

Do you have a problem connecting to Wi-Fi? (iMac Mid 2011 Model)Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3

Did you just start up or restart your mac recently? If you did you might have experineced a problem with your Wi-Fi. I was unable to access anything that required Wi-Fi. So what I did was I restarted my iMac and my Wi-Fi was working again.
What might have caused the problem
A. The Wi-Fi chip did not start or restart (During the process of Starting or Restarting your iMac)
B. It could be a bug in Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3 or lower.
I hoped this helped you out

If it was previously working then try a smc and pram reset.
If that doesn't fix it then see if vlc can handle the video.

HT1338 I need to get MAC osx 10.5. Who can help me?

I need some help.. How can I get new MAC osx 10.5 for my iMac

What iMac model do you have? You might be able to upgrade to a higher OS.
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
The DVD should look like this
Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.
