How to install x11 on 10.4.9 without the Tiger install disc

I need to get Gimp working. But I'm out of town and my install disc is at home. I can't seem to find a download of x11 for my version of tiger. Am I SOL or is there a good solution?

Installing OS to MacBook without the original install discs

I'd been having performance issues with my late-2007 MacBook, purchased in January 2008, for some time. At the recommendation of a friend I backed up my important data to an external hard drive, and subsequently wiped the MacBook's hard drive clean. When I went to reinstalI OSX, I discovered that what I thought were the original install disks were in fact from a relative's MacBook purchased some time later, and when I attempted the install anyway I got the error message "OS X cannot be installed on this computer." I tried re-partitioning the drive through Dual Utility, but that did not solve the issue. How can I get my MacBook working again without the original install discs?

So you didn't clone your hard drive prior to erasing it, you just selectively backed up important data?
What operating system level are you running? If OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion you can boot to recovery mode by holding the command and r keys down when you boot and redownload the operating system. If OS X 10.6 or 10.5, you can contact Apple support to see if they still have the original OS X disks available, or you could buy OS X 10.6 from the Apple online store (I'm told you can order them online once again or you can all them, which in the US is 800-MY-APPLE).

Erasing a MacBook WITHOUT the original install disks??

I am selling my MacBook. I no longer have the install disks BUT I have a new copy of Snow Leapard.
How can I erase my stuff from the computer WITHOUT the original install disks?

The "buyer" is my sister. She is not very tech savvy and will just be emailing and web surfing until the Mac book dies.
Still, the original startup discs contain things like the Apple Hardware Test that may come in handy.
Will installing SL erase the stuff on the computer??
If you want to, yes. If not, no.

How can I format my intell based imac without the original Tiger discs? I have a user account on it that I dont want. I have upgraded to Snow Leopard but I want to to start affresh. Thank you. I have tried loading the Snow Leopard disc whilst holding down th C key but it goes straight into install mode. I am new to Macs and I have inherited this machine.

Hello, many options...
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
   2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
      *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
   3. Click the Erase tab.
   4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
   5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
   6. Highlight the drive, select Partition Tab, then Format type... MacOS Extended Journalled, select the Security Options button, choose Zero Out Data, Erase... after completion do a new install.
Or...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
In the same pref pane highlight your old account, click the little minus icon, then use Disk Utility to Secure Erase Free Space.

MIFI4620LE Jetpack blinking amber light--does this mean the battery is bad? Should the unit operate without the battery installed if plugged in?

MIFI4620LE Jetpack blinking amber light--does this mean the battery is bad? Should the unit operate without the battery installed if plugged in?

The MIFI4620LE Jetpack does not work without a battery installed, even when connected to an external power supply.
I personally think that was a dumb design. I would think the unit would use more electricity when continually charging the battery than just powering the unit it's self, but that's the way Novatel made them.
If your Jetpack works with the battery installed and connected to an external power supply, but does not power on with power supply disconnected, I would say that the battery is defective or worn out.
You should be able to go to a nearby Verizon Store and have them either test the battery or put a new one in it to see if it works. Then you will know if you need to spend the $$ for a new battery. OR if you always use your Jetpack at home, or in your car, just use the old battery connect to a power supply or your cigarette lighter and save the cash.
As the Customer Support person stated, the slow blinking amber light is a normal state when the Jetpack is turned on and connected to Verizon's service.
I hope this solves your problem.

Can I install PSE 10-13 Win7-8 without the Organizer (uses a lot of resources)?

You can't install them separately, but it is easy to place unique shortcuts on the desktop for organizer and for editor.
In Organizer, go to Edit>Preferences>Auto Analyzer options and uncheck analyzer and people recognition if you don't use them - may improve resource utilization.

latest message indicates I need Apple Application Update
With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Is it a good idea to use the A/C adapter without the battery installed?

Hi everyone!
I have a question. When using my iBook, is it a good idea or is it adviceable to power my iBook using the A/C adapter only, without the battery installed - for the purpose of preserving my battery? I tend to use my iBook heavily and as a desktop computer replacement.
My iBook is a G4 1.33 Ghz 12" model running OS X Version 10.4.10 and my peripherals are optical mouse, keyboard, powered speakers and an external hard drive.
Thanks.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Well the service manual says:
"Warning: Never turn on the computer unless all of its internal parts are in place and it is fully reassembled. Operating the missing parts can damage the computer or cause injury."
Without a battery in place the battery connector would be exposed and things always find their way into the opening. I've heard of people keeping a bad battery in place just for that reason. Also if you keep it plugged in all the time it won't lose it's date/time.
If you check "set Date & Time automatically" in the "Date & Time" system preferences the iBook will automatically reset the time if you have a internet connection.

Yes. Once you select the line bar a new entry will appear where you can select what type of line. Based on my experience whether or not it will change is iffy.

Firefox crashes for unknown reason lately, so I removed it and reinstalled it. How can I put my Favorites (bookmarks) back into the newly installed FireFox???

Firefox crashes a few times when I was on Facebook and with email, also watching dramas online. Most of the time due to Adobe Flash and I did submit crash report. Later it crashes for unknown reason while I have email and Facebook on different tabs -- when I was on the tab of email, it looks system hang and not responding. This happened to my laptop that uses Windows Vista as I noticed. I don't remember it ever happens to my desktop that uses Windows XP.
It's pretty annoying of such known crash, but before removing Firefox, I did try to update all add-ons or plugins and it looks like doesn't work out. After updating for couple times and it still crashed like that, I removed Firefox and reinstall it.
'''Now I want to know how to put the shortcuts from my Favorite folder into the newly installed FireFox's bookmarks.''' I didn't backup the bookmarks by using Firefox. I even went to Firefox help for instructions, but it only mentions how to merge/input the bookmarks from other browsers. Please note the version I've removed and inrestalled is the same -- 3.6.13.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
