Help - which operating system do I have?

Can anyone help me to find out which operating system I have on my mac. When I click on "About this Mac" I can find that it is a 10.3.9 power pc G5 etc, but I cannot find out when I am panther, tiger, leopard?!!!!!!!!! I have forgotten what I have and can't find anywhere on my mac that tells me - I know it's stupid, but I blame having a baby and having a cotton wool head!!!!

Hello again Helen,
You're more than welcome!
Yes, it's very odd that when you select About This Mac that you will only see the version # and not the name of the cat. I could be wrong but I don't believe that the name is mentioned anywhere in your install.....though I certainly could be mistaken.
And all the best to you this holiday season!

  • Where do I find which operating system that I have

    Simple question but I just don't see it right off

    The line will read like this:
    v4.7.0.148 (Platform 4.0.0.181)
    That is mine (Storm), and I am therefoer on the .148 OS (the fourth octet in the first series denotes the OS level).
    Cheers!

  • Which operating system to I have?

    I have a brand new iMac.  Where can I check on the computer to confirm whether I have Mac OS X v10.7 or Mac OS X v10.8?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu.

  • Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8?

    Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8? I had an older version of Firefox and it said I needed to update it but that was the message that appeared.

    Sorry, it's because Firefox 4+ are only compiled for the Intel processors.
    There is a separate project for PPC Macs called Ten Four Fox. You might give it a spin when you're tired of 3.6.

    Mac OS X 10.7.5, which requires getting a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store and a download code for 10.7 by phoning them.

  • I purchased Premiere Elements 13.  Elements does not support Windows Vista which is our operating system.  I have Elements 12 and never had this problem.

    I purchased Premiere Elements 13 & Elements does not support Windows Vista which is our operating system.  I have Elements 12 and never had this problem.  What are my options?  Do you have a compatible program for WinVista similar to Premiere Element?

    This is not Adobe. Please do not duplicate threads. I have answered one of at least 3 of your threads currently appearing at the top of the list of threads in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum tonight. Please see
    I purchased Premiere Elements 13 and it is not compatible to Win Vista which is my operating system.  What are my options?
    New to Premiere Elements 13....it does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, and OSX 10.7.

    In your other thread which I have cited above, I have posted a list of choices ahead of you. There is no workaround to get Premiere Elements 13 to support Vista, XP, or OSX 10.7 that has ever surfaced.

  • How do I find out which operating system I have?

    I've only recently purchased my 15" MacBook Pro (version 10.6.8) and I am unsure on how to establish which operating system I have.  Is it Leopard, Tiger, Lion??

    Thanks!  I had already found the pull down menu with my version but, wasn't sure which "Cat" I had.  Turns out (from further investigation on the Apple site) that I have the latest Snow Leopard.  Thanks for the quick reply tho!  =)

  • Which operating system do I select?

    I have windows xp home edition version 2002 service pack 3 and want to download adobe reader.  Can you please advise which operating system I select from the dropdown menu when downloading, as my operating system is not on the list (probably because it is as old as me).
    All help appreciated - from an old fogey!

    Go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and select Windows XP SP3.

  • Due to our operating system we only have 32 bit, purchased lightroom 6 and download cancelled as says needs 64 bit, is there a 32 bit version i can get, otherwise need money back

    due to our operating system we only have 32 bit, purchased lightroom 6 and download cancelled as says needs 64 bit, is there a 32 bit version i can get, otherwise need money back

    thanks for that, but having tried the various options, still not managed to organize a refund, or anything for that matter, been on hold now for 25 minutes, first time was for 17 minutes, spoke to someone who was putting me thorough, to then have automated message saying issue could not be dealt with and it then hung up! been on to live chat and this was posted: -
    Chat
    24 hours a day, 7 days a week
    Chat is currently closed
    Which would be funny if i havent already spent 3 1/2 hours trying to sort this. I am really not enjoying my adobe experience, never known such a difficult company to speak to a 'live' person. Now on hold for 29 minutes and need to go out so nothing to be done now until tomorrow. If there is a real person from Adobe reading this, i would appreciate a call/direct email to get this resolved. now 31 minutes and I have to hang up as need to go!!! aarrgghhh!!!

  • Which operating system has the least problems for IPad

    Which operating system has the least problems for IPad? I have 3.0 and probably should upgrade. Thanks

    You're using an original iPad? Definitely upgrade to the newest version of iOS. Many apps will require iOS 5.1.1 and it will run fine on your iPad.

    Hi All, I have question about the iMac operating system. I have the last updated. The problem when I manage the place of the folder windows they are all mixing up.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.
