How to install/get X11 on Tiger10.4.5

Hello there,
I am having trouble finding a version of X11 that actually will install on my system. I am running the latest version of tiger and the install from the apple download site tells me that I cannot install because I have a newer version already. (Not that I know of...!)
Where can I get the latest version of x11 and how do I install it?
Thanks already,
dl33

It's on the Tiger DVD. Use the "Optional Installs" installer.

  • No install discs, how do I get X11 program?

    I was given an older but opperable PowerBook Mac OS X 10.4.11 recently. I have spent the last couple weeks getting to know it. I haven't used a mac in many decades. I purchased a program that requires X11 to run. I have no install discs so I tried to download it from Apple's site but am still not getting it right I suppose.
    I am needing some guidance in getting X11.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Contact the original seller of the computer. They can't sell you the computer without installation discs. The installation discs provide valuable hardware test programs, as well as custom installable software that does not ship with the operating system. If they lost the discs, ask them to call AppleCare for you to get those discs. If you lost the discs, call AppleCare. Here's their numbers worldwide:

  • How do install get additional components missing to install Mountain Lion 10.8?

    Were you able to download and save the DMG (disk image file) for Firefox?
    If there are problems with updating or permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (DMG) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 16.0.2: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application (e.g. open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
    Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
    Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.<br />
    You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

  • Upgraded from 10.3 to 10.4.6 - How to install X11 without DVD?

    I originally bought my system G4 powerbook with 10.2 on it. I have done the upgrades and am now running 10.4.6.
    I want to install OpenOffice 2.0.X but I don't own a 10.4 Tiger install DVD.
    How do I get X11? Everone says it's on the DVD but that doesn't help someone who has an older system and upgraded to Tiger!

    Because the only way to upgrade from Jaguar to Tiger is to buy a Tiger DVD (you cannot download an upgrade) that means you must have obtained an illegal copy of Tiger. The Tiger version of X11 is indeed on the Tiger DVD and is not available as a download from Apple. Therefore, you will need to purchase a Tiger package from Apple.
    Assisting someone who has obtained software illegally would be a violation of the Terms of Use of these Discussions. Don't expect any assistance.
    The proper solution is to purchase a legitimate copy of Tiger.

  • How to get X11?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install Matlab, upon installation I get a message saying I need X11. I'm currently running OS X 10.4.11. How do I get X11? Is it something I can download for free?
    Thanks

    +Is this a DVD that I should already have as it came with my computer?+
    Yes. The gray installation DVDs that came with your computer.
    +If I can't find it, is there a way to get another copy?+
    Contact AppleCare for replacement discs. There will be a nominal charge ($30, I think).
    Hope this helps...

  • Where's X11? And How Do I Get Stuff Off Of Install Disks With A Beige?

    I just installed GIMP for graphics in case I can't ge thte disappearing Photoshop cursor in classic problem worked out.
    I started up GIMP and it says I need X11. Now I thought it was on the XCodeTools disk, and I thought I had already installed them (do the Developers Tools have to be a certain place for the OS to see them?) - but all the documentations I find tells me it's on OSX install disks themselves.
    Uh-oh.
    It won't LET me open the install disks, because I have a beige. How do I get into the installer - I used XPF and it got to the OS install and the only options I found were to do an archive and install, so I stopped and backed out.
    Don't think I want to go there, just to put in some tools packages. Should I have pushed on through to the next window in the installer or what?
    My nightmare scenario is the installer porks the system folder and I have to do the whole strip-the-guts-out and reinstall it all again..
    (gaah! somebody smack me, I'm SO neurotic about this..)
    How do I get to the X11 installer? Where is it?

    You can download X11 here. http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/x11formacosx.html

  • X11 - where is it? ...and how do i get rid of it?

    hello there!
    yesterday something rode me to install openoffice. when i wanted to start it i got the message that apple x11 is needed (ok, i know you knew that)...
    ...so i took my apple cd and installed that x11 thing. but openoffice still did tell me to install x11! the osx help told me that x11 will be in the utilities folder - but it isn't. this encouraged me to install most of that developer tool stuff or however that is called from my apple cd - and yeah, no open office but about 2gb less space on my hdd and no x11. via spotlight i found some x11 package on my hdd which i then tried to install but it stopped during installation with the message that some error occured...
    ok, my questions are:
    how will i get rid of my stupid a$$ installation of that developer stuff?
    ...and how will i install x11?
    thanks a lot in advance guys........

    x11 needs to be installed from the OS X install cd that shipped with your mbp (its burried in one of the folders, don't remember which off hand - sorry).
    as for removing developer tools... personally, i wouldn't. if you ever plan on installing stuff from source via fink or darwinports or want to install apache/php for some reason, you'll need the developer tools. they do come in very hand, but if you are so incline to remove them, open up a terminal window (/Applications/Utilities) and issue the command
    sudo /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl
    that should prompt you for your password. Just walk through it and it'll clear them out.
    If you really want to use open office on os x, i'd highly suggest neooffice

  • I have installed Adobe packages and cannot find the Acrobat extension folder please advise how can I get these applications to load onto my computer?

    I have installed Adobe Creative Cloud for teams CC Packages which says that Acrobat XI Pro is installed. Your support page says it does not install Acrobat and I have to look in the Extensions folder for an MSI file.  I have run a number of searches and  cannot find the Acrobat extension folder please advise how can I get these applications to load onto my computer?
    Also I now administer the teams and have accepted the invitation to I received to be a team member and download the apps.  The admin page shows that I have been sent an invitation but does not show my account as "ACtive" unlike my other team members.  I tried to use the link in the invite to accept it become active but the link displayed an error saying I had already accepted the invite... why is no account not active?
    Finally what other product downloads in Creative Cloud do not actually download as part of the Creative cloud Packager for downloading the apps? e.g. acrobat and what else?

    My apologies Eadeszoo I believe our support agents are unavailable on January 1.
    Are you able to copy the contents of the DVD to your computer?  Are you receiving any particular error messages when you are trying to install?  Finally which operating system are you using?

    Please help, Thank you.

    Your photos remain in place, the catalog you have been using will remain. After you install Lightroom from the CC, all you have to do is open your existing catalog and continue right where you left off.

  • I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?

    I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?  When I downloaded video from my phone, I couldn't hear the sound because Quicktime player 10 automatically opened the file and there was no sound,  When I opened the file in quicktime 7 Pro, the audio was fine.  I would prefer to have all movie files open automatically using my Pro version.  Any suggestions?  When I trashed the QT player 10 and clicked on the .3g2 movie file, it didn't automatically open with QT 7 Pro.  Instead a window opened wanting to convert the file to Flash.  I don't want that to happen.

    Try This...
    Highlight the file you want Quicktime 7 Pro to open -
    Goto File > Get Info or (CMD I)
    In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
    Select the player you want to open the music file.

  • How do i get more memory installed on my macbook air

    How do i get more memory installed on my macbook air

    If you are referring to RAM, the Air's RAM is not an upgradeable component. The RAM memory is soldered to the main board, and there are no expansion slots.
    It is the price Air owners pay for miniaturization. Every Air is manufactured with all the memory it will ever have. Shop wisely.
    It is technically possible to upgrade the SSD storage though, but will probably void any warranty.
