    You'll need to provide some more information .... what current mac mini do you have? Click on the apple in the left corner of the menu bar, click about this mac, and what does it say for processor, memory, and os x version?
    When you say you have no DVD, do you have the mac mini server or is the DVD broken?
    You can't do anything with 10.6 Snow Leopard on a PowerPC mini, however, if it is an Intel-based mini, you could probably hook up the systems in target disk mode to install 10.6.

  • How do you install Perforce as daemon on OS X Snow Leopard Server?

    I recently purchased a mac mini with Snow Leopard Server, and I am interested in installing Perforce as a daemon. I am familiar on how to do this on a Linux distro, but not so much on Snow Leopard Server. Is there some documentation that explains how daemons are configured on a mac? If so a link would be nice.
    For my use case, I have the p4d executable. Basically what I am looking for is a way to integrate it as a service like the rest of the default services which ship with the product.
    As a fall back, if this can't be done, the minimum I'm looking for is a way to configure it to start via a mechanism like init.d or the mac equivalent.

    Some newly discovered info:<br>
    This bug is specific to 64-bit versions of Firefox. Starting in Firefox 4 Beta 7, [http://boomswaggerboom.wordpress.com/2010/11/10/firefox-4-for-mac-os-x-under-the-hood/ Firefox is offered as a i386/x86_64 universal binary] to Mac users, and defaults to 64-bit mode on OS X 10.6.
    If you run Firefox in 32-bit mode, you should see the QT plugin again. Like I said earlier, the bug is marked as blocking the release of Beta 8, which means that if everything else is finished for Beta 8, it won't be released until this bug is fixed.

  • How to upgrade Mac PowerPC 10.5.8 G5 into Snow Leopard?

    It is sad that I have upgrade my Mac from 10.4.11 Tiger G4 PPC now I have to upgrade them again since most plug-in are outdated and could not use my mac properly.
    Do I just buy the Snow Leopard CD and install this my Mac PPC ? Then after it will be Intel mac not PPC anymore?

    Wow, you have had that puppy for a long time.  Apple hasn't made PPC machines since early 2006.  Realistically, you would benefit greatly by upgrading as the performance difference will be gigantic. 
    Supporting the PC's are a bit easier as those users update hardware about every 2 years.  It is almost a requirement for PCs as the things won't run anything worthwhile after the release of a subsecquent version of Windows.
    Your Mac has had a good run and lasted a long time.
    Not sure if a Commodor is exactly what you need, but there is a new Mac Pro awaiting it's debut.

  • I downloaded and installed Lion on an external hard drive using my laptop which is running Snow Leopard I have now decided that I want to install Lion on my Laptop, but when I go to the App store and click on my purchases it will not download

    I downloaded and installed Lion on an external hard drive using my laptop which is running Snow Leopard I have now decided that I want to install Lion on my Laptop, but when I go to the App store and click on my purchases it will not download again

    Thanks Dirk,
                         Tried your suggestion various ways but it had no effect the download button was still greyed out and the install button would not activate will keep trying to find a solution. I dont want to boot from the external hard drive that has Lion on mainly because it is a usb HD and the connection to my wireless modem slows the connection rate and downloading would take about ten hours

  • All apps in Office 2008 Crash with Snow Leopard.

    All apps in Office 2008 Crash with Snow Leopard. This is the only problem I am having since the upgrade. How can this be fixed?

    Hello,
    you don't write what kind of crash you are facing. The one I met was that after launching any of office programs it hanged on splash window, telling "Optimizing menu font performace".
    I found a problem in FontBook - a lot of fonts had a yellow warning triangle there. When I clicked "Resolve duplicates", almost all my fonts were moved to trash (and Office started OK). I believe the updates I made from Tiger, to Leopard to Snow Leopard, mixed with installation of MS Office fonts made this mess.
    I took the whole /Library/Fonts folder from another computer and replaced my broken Fonts folder on this computer. Reboot and all works fine.

  • Which version of Snow Leopard to buy for a clean, non-upgrade installation?

    I have a MacBook Pro 13”3, Mid 2009, I am the second owner. The computer was originally bought with OS X Leopard and later upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    The previous owner does not have any installation discs, so I have to start from scratch.
    My question is, which version of Snow Leopard do I need to buy, so I will be able to legally make a clean, stand-alone, non-upgrade installation?
    Here are two I found at sites of different Apple Retailers:
    1. Mac Box Set (Including OS X Snow Leopard, iLife 09, iWork09) Single User Pack
    2. Apple Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard Operating System (Family Pack)
    I have been told by a salesperson that the “Apple Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard Operating System (Single User)” cannot be purchased in Europe anymore.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Thank you for your input.
    I agree that the disks should have been included, but it is what it is, sadly.
    I've been looking for the retail version of Snow Leopard, but can't seem to find it. Amazon UK, for example, lists it as unavailable:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/MAC-10-6-3-SNOW-LEOPARD-RETAIL/dp/B003HAFZQO/ref=sr_1_11 ?s=software&ie=UTF8&qid=1314374218&sr=1-11
    If I buy the Family Pack, which is still available at some European stores, will I be OK, license-wise?
    It is still much cheaper than the full Mac Box Set.

  • Can I Install My ML Time Machine Backup on Snow Leopard?

  • How can I install Lion onto VirtualBox, which is running on Yosemite?

    Hi,
    I've recently gotten a new mac, with Yosemite pre-installed. I really like Yosemite and don't wish to change, but I'd like to still be able to run my Logic express software, which only runs on Lion or older. If there's an easier way to do this I'd love to hear about it, but the easiest solution I could think of, was to run an older version of Mac on virtualbox. Is this possible and if so, is there a decent link to some instructions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ryan

    Can you use Snow Leopard in VB? If so, how do you go about this? Do you simply download a OS X dmg and run on VB?
    I would upgrade but I'm a poor student Maybe in a couple of months when I graduate.
    Thanks

  • How do I create a 10.6.8 vers. Snow Leopard bootable / install disk?

    I'm running Snow Leopard version 10.6.8 and I need to create a bootable (startup) disk containing "Snow Leopard" 10.6.8 which is what I'm running on my MacBook Pro.  I have the original "S.L." disk from Apple but of course I can no longer boot up from it as it's too old (version wise).  So, as I need to continue running Snow Leopard on this machine until one last sofware app. is updated to run on "Lion" I REALLY NEED a bootable "Snow Leopard" disk that I can use, safely with my MBP running Snow Leopard v. 10.6.8  I've never created a bootable disk before so I need step-by-step instructions of where to download the DMG files needed and the steps to create the bootable DVD.  Thanks everyone!

    Not without the original discs that came with your computer. All you can do is create a new admin account for your nephew, log into that account and then delete the old account. If you have third-party software you don't wish to pass on, then you will need to remove or uninstall them:
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item.  Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind 4.9, instead.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:
    AppZapper 2.0.1
    AppDelete 3.2.6
    Automaton 1.50
    Hazel
    AppCleaner 2.1.0
    CleanApp
    iTrash 1.8.2
    Amnesia
    Uninstaller 1.15.1
    Spring Cleaning 11.0.1
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
