How can I downgrade to 10.4.9 if my imac came with 10.4.10 already?!

I've been having probelms with my brand new imac, I want to use it with an mbox 2 for music production, problem is everytime I connect the usb cable from the mbox the whole computer crashes (to that kernal thingy!) I think I need to downgrade to an earlier osx version as I've been told that 10.4.10 has not yet been ofiicially recognized by digidesign (maker of mbox).....
My problem is, the CDs that came with the imac start at 10.4.10 so I cant re-install osx and go back to an earlier version. Any help would be majorly appreciated as the only reason I bought the imac in the first place was to use with my Mbox, NIGHTMARE!!!

Unless you know someone with the same version iMac you have, but that came with an earlier version of Tiger, you will just have to wait for Digidesign to come up with an update that works in 10.4.10. Apple does not recommend installing an earlier version of the OS than the one the machine shipped with. However, if you can get an earlier OS version that shipped with a machine identical to yours in terms of hardware you could try the experiment of installing it. If the iMac you bought is one of the brand new aluminum ones I think you are out of luck--they all have 10.4.10 and I seriously doubt there is any way at all to install 10.4.9 on one. Start nagging Digidesign to get their drivers updated.

  • How can i set up a wireless network from my iMac lion, with a windows 7??

    I wish to setup a network from my iMac to my gf windows 7 laptop, but can't figure out how...

    In order to do this you should have a router. Once you have a router and both computers on the network then you will need to turn on File Sharing on the Mac. You can locate Sharing in System Preferences - Sharing. On the PC it has a similar function but typical of MS Windows much more arcane and complex. First thing you will need to know is what version of MS Windows you have, then you can Google something like "File sharing OS X Lion with Windows 7" and you will find lots of instructions.

  • How can I downgrade to a previous version?

    How can I downgrade to a previous version. I upgraded to 2.3 and now my site is totally hosed because the fonts on the master page are changing size arbitrarily without me touching them. I've had to eliminate my site map on the bottom of my master page because I've spent over 20 hours trying to correct the issue and can't seem to get anywhere. Even completely recreating the page doesn't correct the problem.
    I was going to simply change a few photos from an older backup copy of the html files, but when I opened them with the 2.3 version, it changed all of the font sized on those files too.
    I need my site working properly, so, how can I downgrade to the previous version and get my site working again until the bug is fixed?
    Help please!

  • How can I Downgrade to Snow Leopard and keeping all 3rd party apps?

    New to MacBookPro and really happy. With Lion...not so much. I want to downgrade to SL, however, apparently I must reformat the hard drive. Here´s the real question: If I have a backup of my entire HD with the user, docs and all the apps I have installed (on Lion), once I downgrade to Snow Leopard, can I just move all my apps from the back up disk I have made of my Lion-Running hard drive? In other words, How can I downgrade without having to reinstall every single third party app I have?

    First, how new is this Mac?  A Mac as a rule cannot boot to an older operating system version than that with which it was originally supplied.  In other words, if this is a new MBP that came with Lion then you probably cannot get it to boot to SL.
    Some applications (and I take it you do mean full "applications" rather than "apps" which are mobile device programs -- it helps to be clear o terminology) can just be dragged from place to place.  Others, notably Adobe and Office, install things all over the place and unless you are good at finding hidden files with obscure names in 10 different places you will just have to re-install them.

  • How can I downgrade back to Firefox 3.6 because 4.0 won't run on my version of OSX?

    I downloaded Firefox 4.0 & installed it on my MacBook running OSX.4.11 but when I tried to run it I got an error saying it was not compatible with my version of OSX.
    So if I can't open Firefox I lose all my bookmarks....
    How can I downgrade to the version I was running before I upgraded & replaced all the files with version 4? I think this was 3.6 as I do upgrade regularly.
    Thanks!

    You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    When you re-install Firefox 3.6 it will use your existing bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

    I updated IOS 6 in my device, it is performing worse. Consuming too much battery in a very short time. How can I "downgrade IOS version?

    Downgrading isn't supported and wouldn't help.  You need to fix your phone.
    1. Delete and reinstall all email accounts.
    2, Restore the phone in iTunes, first  using a backup and if needed as a new phone.

  • How can I downgrade to 7.1.2 from IOS 8 (iPad air and iPhone 5S)?

    How can I downgrade to 7.1.2 from IOS 8 (iPad air and iPhone 5S)?
    Can you restore from backup?  That would be best to keep all your stuff.  You can find usually several versions under restore option in iTunes.  I really hope you have one of those iOS7 versions backed up to iTunes.
    If you really want to start over, and I mean no contacts, photos, music, apps, anything but factory settings that aren't in the cloud or in one of the restore options. You can search ios 7.1.2 firmware and download it and install by shift click restore and choose the file you downloaded.  But that is a really desperate act.  But this also requires iTunes and if you've been using iTunes you probably have a backup.
