Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Apple isn't providing more updates to Mac OS X Snow Leopard because it's a discontinued Mac OS X version. Now, if you have to use plugins as Java or Flash, it's dangerous to continue using them with Leopard, so I recommend you to upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard at least > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

HT1222 Are there any security updates for the Mac OS 10.4.11?

Are there any security updates for my G4 PowerPC OS 10.4.11?

No. Tiger is an obsolete and unsupported OS at this point. If there were any updates you would find them using Software Update.

Are there any firmaware updates for time capsule?

Are there any firmware updates for Time Capsule/Time machine?
I just had a new hybrid (SSD and spinning disk) drive (750 GB) installed on my MacBook Pro and used Boot Kamp to partition it and run Windows xp. Now, my previously working Time Machine won't function. It says the "sparsebundle" is open (or in use) preventing the back-up from working properly. When I try and remove and re-install Time Capsule as the disk to back-up to, it still doesn't work. My plan "B" is get a second Time Capsule and dedicate it to the MacBook. But, I fear I'll face the same problem.
When I open to reconfigure Time Machine, the Time Capsule disk is identified as the back-up, but it's also seen in the "available disks to use for back-up" along with with Boot Kamp disk which is part of the new SSD hybrid hard drive just installed. (Remember it's the partitioned part running Windows xp.)
I've unplugged/plugged-in the ethernet internet connection and the power cord many times to no avail. The message still says the sparsebundle is in the way.
Do you think deleting Boot Kamp disk from the list of available hard drives might solve the problem?

TM can only use AFP and only on disks formatted HFS+ (ie Mac Extended Journaled) so it should not bring up a boot camp partition as a possible destination at all .. but I have not done that seutp.
It says the "sparsebundle" is open (or in use)
That error is well known. It should simply required the TC to be restarted..
That sometimes gets things working where the simple restart won't.
I would recommend using short names, with no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
That is C9
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
If you have a more complicated setup.. I would recommend firstly doing a TM reset in the computer.
See A4 in the same reference.
Do a verify then of the sparsebundle on the TC.. A5 but you might need to inherit the old backup if you want to continue an old backup.. A new hard disk will make the TM consider the old backup no longer belongs to the computer.. there is a UUID connection to the actual hard disk used in the backup.
Again read the info in pondini. B5 and B6.
The sparsebundle in use is C12 but there are a number of sparsebundle issues in section C.. C17 is another common issue.
Some of what you have done is not adequate.. eg disconnecting ethernet is not enough.. you need to reboot the TC.

Are there PCI thunderbolt cards for mac pro 3.1?

It's that last sentence I'm curious about. "However a MacPro already has much more capability already built in than Thunderbolt can add."
I'm thinking of getting a Mac Pro, but see that it doesn't seem to have Thunderbolt. I'm not sure if I care. The reason for the Mac Pro is that I'm topping out my 8gb RAM 27" iMac capacity with the volume of work going through it, and my tech tells me I'm pushing it too hard. I use it to run a small law office, but usually have about 15 apps open, with lots going on in the network in the background.
Is there any reason to wait until Apple puts Thunderbolt into the Mac Pro?
Thunderbolt will not increase the performance capability of the MacPro. It will add a bus that can be convenient, especially later on when Thunderbolt devices become more common, more mature and better supported - oh, and with more common will come less costly. From a pure performance standpoint the existing PCIe slots are much more capable and cheaper to implement. You would be giving up nothing with a current MacPro.
My opinion. Thunderbolt is really a great move forward in the long run - needed something to replace Firewire and this is it. But there is no reason to wait on Thunderbolt on MacPro - it is redundant.

Why are there so few games for Mac OS X?

Yes, I do know the answer, because everybody writes software for Windows.
But aren't we at a point where times are changing? Many people exchange their PC's for a Mac nowadays, and the number of Linux (which is basically the same under the hood) is rapidly growing too. Those people like to play games too, don't they?
Does anyone see some light in the distance for companies porting their games to the Mac too?

Agreed. You have to remember everything is drive by economics in our capitalistic society so games are written for the OS that has largest market penetration and most likely to return huge profit and currently that is Windows. That is also why one of the most famous game programmers, John Carmack, just recently rewrote some of his games for iPhone/ipod touch and made quite a nice profit from his own account.
"Carmack said that there was a lot of "hand wringing" initially over the idea of spending the company's own money (there was no publisher to help fund development) on making games for the iPhone. Doom Resurrection, when it hit, was probably the most expensive game to develop for the iPhone, Carmack says.
"It did really well for us," he said. "It was Wolfenstein Classic that made the argument for iPhone development for me. We made quite a bit of money off of that."

That is not to say that Mac's can't be used as game machines since Apple actually has a webpage dedicated exactly to this you can check out:
http://www.apple.com/games/hardware/
So in a nutshell to answer the OP question the reason you see fewer games on mac's is because it's not profitable. As you can see if there is no technical limitations writing games like Doom3 for iphone there is none for the mac.
I know I've personally not bought a macosx game since I also have a pc and use that for games so I'm not helping the business case for more games for mac. Vote with your pocket and go out and buy more mac only games if you want to see more for the mac.

Are there any video joiners for Mac?

More and more downloadable movies are split and need to be joined back together to be viewed. I've searched the web over and can't find a Mac program to do this. I'm speaking of files that end in consecutive numbers like .001, .002, etc. Is there something along the line of Hjsplit for Mac?

Why are there so many updates for Adobe Flash & Reader?

It seems like I am having to update at least once a week. This is very tedious. Also, $39 to chat with someone about my issue???

There aren't that many. For instance Adobe Reader XI had updates in January, February and May, only three this year.
What there are is a great many SCAMS from people who say they want you to update, and instead fill your computer with goodness knows what.
If you aren't sure whether you have been taken in by one of these, a good thing to do is to post a screen shot of the message telling you to update (don't try to reply with a screen shot in an email, it won't work).

Are there any know viruses for mac?

I just received a message from a friend and when I replied to it, he said it wasn't from him and that his computer had a virus. He only has a Mac, so wondering if there are any new problems with Mac or viruses.
Thanks

There are no known viruses, but there is a live trojan. However, you cannot be infected by a trojan simply from receiving it in an email. Nevertheless, you can check your system:

A link to a great User Tip about the trojan: Flashback Trojan User Tip
A related link in the tip to a checker: Malware Checker Dowload Link
A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started.

I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549) and there is free update for Maverick will I have problems since there were no free updates prior to this?

I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549) and there is free update for Maverick will I have problems since there were no free updates prior to this? I just do not want to loose any data. Thank you for your help.

you should always make a backup of data regularly, especially when upgrading to a higher version of OS X. Just because it's free has no bearing on it giving anyone any problems. The only concern you may have is not all older programs will work with 10.9 that do with 10.6. Check here to see if you have any programs that would not run in 10.9: https://tidbits.com/article/12156

After updating to ios 5, my calendar sometimes freezes when entering a new event. I have tried syncing but it doesn't fix the problem. Are there any bug fixes for this? Any ideas would be great thanks, I don't really want to have to reset everything!

Try to reset the iPod by pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches after installing new software or apps.
