If you need to make a bootable copy of your OS installer disk (good idea to have when you travel) follow this:
How to Make a Non-Commercial DVD copy of MAC OS X
Making a DVD Image
Step 1. Insert the retail Mac OS X Install DVD into your drive.
Step 2. Launch Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities).
Step 3. In Disk Utility, you will notice a white pane on the left hand side. In the pane, select the Mac OS X Install DVD by clicking on it once.
Step 4. Click New Image on the Disk Utility toolbar.
Step 5. A dialog box will appear. Give the new image a name. I used 'Mac OS X Install DVD'. Select the destination where you wish to save it. Leave Image Format at Compressed (default) and Encryption at None (default).
Step 6. Click Save to begin creating the image.
Step 7. Once your image has been created DO NOT mount it. Leave the image alone and proceed to the next section.
Burning the Image
Step 1. Launch Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities).
Step 2. Click Burn on the Disk Utility toolbar (upper left).
Step 3. Navigate to where you saved the DVD image created in the previous section. Click on the image file, then click the Burn button. Do not drag and drop the image file into Disk Utility during this step.
Step4. Insert a DVD when prompted and proceed to Burn it. (use good quality media)

    I'm assuming your dvd drive is broken? if you have a thumb drive large enough (8GB or better), you can use another computer to make a bootable image from the install dvd to the thumb drive. then you can install from the the thumb drive.

  • I recently installed the new operating system.  iMovie doesn't seem to work the same as in Mountain Lion.  I can't figure out how to burn a movie to a DVD.  Has that feature been eliminated?

    I am having difficulty figuring out how to burn my iMovie to a DVD.  Has that feature been eliminated?

    unbelievable... the amount of RAM is the issue... I found a post (http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=8448) on an unrelated matter, but the user solved their issue under X64 by limiting the amount of RAM WinXP x64 was using by editing the boot.ini file.
    The basis of the "trick" is to add " /maxmem=4096" to the end of your OS line, but I elected to copy the line and add it to a new entry so I could easily select which "mode" i wanted at boot.... like so...
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition()\WINDOWS="Window s XP Professional x64 Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition()\WINDOWS="Window s XP Professional x64 Edition - X-Fi tweak" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /maxmem=4096
    amazingly this solved my issue... but now my system properties only report 2Gb instead of 4Gb... unacceptable!
    When Can I expect a fix for this Creative?

  • How do I install snow leopard on a 2.1 ghz macbook with 10.5.8 Leopard installed?  I have a 10.6.2 unstall disk.  It says it can't install snow leopard on this computer.

    How do I install Snow Leopard on my Macbook 2.1 ghz, with 10.5.8 Leopard installed?
    I have the install disk for Snow Leopard 10.6.2, but when using it for installation, it
    states that "Snow Leopard cannot be installed on this computer"!
    I understand some features of iOS5 cannot be used unless my iMac and Macbook have
    10.7 Lion installed.  Correct?

    It sounds like your Snow Leopard install disk is the disk that came with another model of Mac (grey lable with no pictures). If so, that's not legal and won't work. You need a retail (white label with the picture of a snow leopard) copy of the installer for each system that didn't come with Snow Leopard.

    Hi.
    You simply can't. Snow Leopard is compiled in Intel binary only.
    Good Luck.

    Apple figures that having supported PowerPC code for the last 6 years is enough so they dropped it.
    Why should they have to support some that old forever? It doesn't make good business sense to support some that so few will use.
    If you must play those games, my suggestion is to get an older Mac that will support PowerPC. It is going to be a difficult task to get Snow Leopard to run on a new Mac.

    how to burn slide show too a dvd-r in web superdrive plugged into the usb port

    I think this link will offer some good insight. I would recommend moving the library to an external HD if you are already using iPhoto on your MBP. If you do decide to move the library directly to your MBP just make sure you are using a different enough name for it that your MBP can easily locate each library independently.

  • How do I install Snow Leopard using another computer?

    My 2009 MacBook meets all the criteria for the Snow Leopard upgrade, but my dvd drive is broken. Every time insert the dvd it is spit out (it is the same for audio cd's as well). I have tried repairing the drive and installing snow leopard using an external dvd drive (with no luck). I need a simple guide for using another computer to do the upgrade. My boyfriend has a newer MacBook Pro and I believe is operating on Lion. I want to use his computer to upgrade mine, is it possible eventhough we are on different operating systems?

  • How do I install Snow Leopard over 10.5.8

    I have just recently acquired a MacBookPro from a friend of mine who's father has passed away. I am able to access the computer without a password but the admin is still set to his father and he doesn't know the password. I have the Snow Leopard OS and want to do a clean install like it came from the factory with no personalization. This is the first time I have owned a MacBookPro so I am unsure how to do a clean install of Snow Leopard over the exiting OS 10.5.8 and if I have to delete that OS first. How do I do that?

    Insert a retail DVD, restart with the C key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install Snow Leopard.
    While the retail DVD can be used to create a fully functional OS, it can’t perform a true factory restore; it won’t install any of the iLife applications.

  • How to Burn an ISO to a DVD or USB?

    Series: How to Re-Install Windows when you don't have the Recovery Discs
    Intro: What is an ISO? Why is it used? 
    Step 1 - Get the ISO - ISO Download Links
    Step 2 - Burn the ISO to a DVD or USB  
    Step 3 - What to do with the ISO DVD/USB? Change the Boot Order  
    Step 4 - What to do After Windows is Installed? How to Get HP Drivers?    
    Step 2 - Burn the ISO to a DVD or USB
    I've Got the ISO, Now What?
    DVD Option 
    Once you've got a Windows ISO, you have to put it on some type of media, like a DVD or USB flash drive. Burning the ISO to a disc is made easy with ImgBurn's 'Write image file to disc'  -  Option B below.
    Vista users: If you used the Vista download link in Step 1 above, you've got 3 different files that must be combined. You'll have to use Option A first to create an Image file from those 3 files and then use Option B to burn that ISO to a DVD (or see the USB Option below)
    USB Option
    It wouldn't be necessary to put the ISO on a USB if you have a DVD drive and it is working. Newer, slimmer laptops sometimes don't come with DVD drives anymore, so they must use the USB option.
    For putting the ISO on a USB flash drive, another program is required to make the USB drive able to be seen and booted to by the BIOS. "To be seen and booted to by the BIOS", means making the USB "bootable". 
    Rufus is a good program that creates bootable USB drives. Again, there are other programs out there that do this same thing too.
    See Step 3 - What to do with the ISO DVD/USB? Change the Boot Order
    If you have any questions, create a new post (How to Create a New Post - Video), copy and paste it's link into a private message to me, and I will respond on your thread

    You can try to open it in Disk Utility. Just go Images>Open>browse to the .iso and it should mount the volume. Choose the volume and go to Images>Burn and follow directions.
    You may encounter problems if the volume created on Windows is not compatibly formatted, but that's unlikely.
    Note I'm running 10.3.9 so DU may have changed menu structures/options.
    Lastly, this is faster and easier with Toast.

  • How do I install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings

    I need to update my system, I realized that I need Snow Leopard (quiet late) before Maverick. My question is, how can I install it keeping files and all the data. I found this on Internet, does it work?
    Install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings
    If you follow these steps, the installer will replace your operating system if one is already present, but will preserve your account information and personal files.  You may have to reinstall some applications, however.
    Insert the install disc (or the first install disc if you have more than one) into your disc drive. Restart your computer while holding down the c key. This causes your computer to start up from the install disc rather than your hard drive. When you see the gray Apple insignia, release c . 
    The Mac OS X installer should open automatically. Follow the on-screen prompts to read and accept the license agreement and begin the installation. When prompted to choose a destination disk, select your preferred location and click Install. 
    When the Mac OS X installation finishes with the disc, restart your computer. After the installation completes, a configuration program may begin automatically if you are installing for the first time. You will need to supply basic setup information for your computer. 
    Update your system software to ensure that you have the most recent operating system components.  From the Apple menu, select Software Update... , and then follow the instructions on the screen. Often, you will have to restart your computer, and you may have to run Software Update multiple times before it can completely update your system.

    That's why you need to back it up. You won't need to restore the backup immediately afterwards unless something goes wrong during the upgrade, but you'll need it later; the drive will eventually fail.

  • How do I install Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro currently running Lion?

    A friend is having trouble running older apps in Lion on his new Macbook Pro and wants to revert to Snow Leopard. Any suggestions or cautionary tales appreciated. Thanks.

    New MBPs require a version of Snow Leopard that you cannot purchase. If it did not come pre-installed on the computer then installing Snow Leopard is a bit of a chore.
    First off he will need a computer that can boot from a retail Snow Leopard DVD (10.6.3.) Second off he will need a 16 GB USB flash drive or a free partition on a USB hard drive that is at least 16 GBs in size. The basic process is:
    Using a computer that can boot from a retail Snow Leopard DVD you install 10.6.3 onto the spare drive. Download and install the 10.6.8 Combo update. Create a new partition on the MBP. Boot the MBP from the 10.6.8 USB drive then clone the system to the new partition on the MBP.
    I will be glad to provide more detail if needed.

  • How do i install snow leopard on a new hard drive

    My hard drive went bad on my macbook pro and had to install a new on. Can anyone help me install snow leopard? When i try it doesn't see the new HD.

    I am hopeless!  Try as I might I can never get my external hard drive to be my startup drive.  In summary,
    I have a brand new Western Digital blue caviar HD, which I formatted as 2 partitions, both extended journaled with GUID partition.
    I tried 2 different ways to install SL onto one of the partitions.  I tried to boot up the SL Install disk holding c key, but the internal HD prevailed as startup, with the Install disk showing up on the desktop.  I chose INSTALL and specified on one of the partitiions of the external drive.  i ended up with one folder called: MAC OS INSTALL DATA, but it would not boot up when I restarted the computer, holding the option key down.  I next tried using System Preferences to select the partition as a startup BUT its icon did not appear so I couldn't choose it.
    I decided to choose the Install Dvd as the startup (given that holding c key on booting would not work to boot the Install dvd).  However, as above, when I went to select the partition as the disk for the SL install, its icon was again not visible.
    However, both of the partition icons DO appear on my desktop when I reboot the computer using the internal HD as the startup.  I can't see what I am doing wrong.

  • Need help in installing Snow Leopard without DVD drive

    Hi,
    I have a White Macbook 2008 model with 2.1 ghz processor and 1 GB Ram. The dvd rom is not working in my machine. It spits out the dvd's 99 out of 100 times.
    I need to upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.6. Apple has sent me a single disk to install snow leopard.
    I am not willing to invest in new dvd drive either internal or external. Needed help on ways to install snow leopard please apart from using the dvd option.
    I do have a Firewire 400 cable but i do not know anybody anymore who has a mac machine with 400 port.
    Hence the cable is also useless and i cannot connect to anyother macbook and do the install using their drive.
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Rahul

    There are no direct options. Find a friend with a Mac that has a working optical drive. Buy an 8GB USB flash drive. Partition and format it for the Mac then clone the mounted DVD to the flash drive. Take it back to your computer and boot from the flash drive.
    Boot Using OPTION key:
      1. Restart the computer.
      2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
          "OPTION" key.
      3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
      4. Select the disk icon for the flash drive.
      5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.
