HT4739 Support for PPC Macs

So did Update 10 fix the vulnerability in Java 1.6.0_24? I can't tell from the description.

Bob
You may be right--been having trouble lately with Java on Safari 5.0.6 on PPC and heard there was an issue with Java and Apple is no longer supporting PPC.
Thanks for your interest.

My Fix for PPC Mac flash download

I tried every suggestion people made on this forum to correct
the Flash Player download issue for PPC MAC and separately nothing
worked. I was finally able to put it all together to get the
download to work. Here is what I did step by step. I really hope it
helps some of you.
1.) Download Flash uninstaller
2.) Save the uninstaller program to the desktop by dragging
and dropping
3.) Run uninstall program
4.) Send everything adobe flash to the trash
5.) Go to Library then internet plug ins and delete any file
that has to do with Adobe Flash, EMPTY TRASH
6.) Open Quicktime, select Quick TIme Preferences, select the
advanced tab, click on MIME settings.
7.) Click the triangle next to Images and deselect Flashpix
image. Then select the triangle next to miscellaneous and deselect
flash media
8.)Select Applications, Utilities, Dish utility

Thanks - I will give it a try ....again.

What r all the boot loaders for ppc macs

i need a boot loader for ppc macs something like this
But thats my intel macbook
if anyone has any idea plz reply
thanks mike

Hi, Klaus.
Klaus's method:
Selecting the boot partition can be postponed until the code common to all OSes is executed: firmware in chips, if, 'Alt' pressed, pause and display screen in NVRAM; then execute the first byte on the first boot partition pointed to by the partition table on the drive selected in NVRAM (changed by 'system preferences').
Boot Loader:
Firmware executed, then first byte on default boot drive. This has 'boot loader' with text menu offering OSes. Pause. Marks boot partition on selected drive, and sometimes copies first record of this boot partition over itself (the boot loader) and changes the CPU pointer back to first byte of new boot drive (chain loading). Very clean.
Other methods 'shoot' to permanent boot loader (with spiffy graphic menu shown) and back. All that matters is that first byte on drive where OS should continue is eventually the first byte of the OS you want.
Snow Leopard (HFS+) and GNU/Linux (ext3) make a qood pair. Both can read and write HFS+ natively. Still, if you kept eMac with Ubuntu and Firewire cable, drive damage on either could be fixed.

ITunes no longer supported on PPC MACS!!

This can't be right?? Apple is leaving all it's long time supporters using PPC macs out in the cold for future updates to iTunes? But they are still supporting Windows XP and up?? Please tell me this is just an oversight and a fix is coming. For those of you wondering about why iTunes will not update on your MAC, if you don't have a Intel machine, you are out of luck it seems.

Dosn't support the original iPad?
My mom had that problem but we went through it all and updated to ios 5 without any real problems. You do need to have the ipad connected to the computer to get the update for vsn 5
But it worked on her original iPad. There were some scary messages about it not being backed up and stuff for many of her apps. My theory is those apps weren't recognized by the older ios she was running.
Are you seeing this in the system requirements for ios 5?

Possible to use iMac 27" as monitor for PPC Mac Mini (DVI)?

This question appeared on the support community, about 4 years ago, but the adapter mentioned as a solution is now discontinued.
DreadnoughtNov 14, 2010 12:27 PM
I have an old PPC-based Mac Mini that I would like to connect to my new iMac 27", but my Mac Mini has DVI output and the iMac 27" has Mini DisplayPort input. Is this the only way to connect a PPC Mac Mini (or any DVI device) to the iMac 27"?

I am in the same exact situation, and would appreciate any suggestions!
Thanks!

Sorry, no the MM is simply too old. Please read Apple's FAQ on Target Display Mode and you will see:

Simple AVCHD conversion for PPC Mac

Hi,
I've got a Power PC Mac (dual 2.5) with Final Cut Studio (version 5.1.4) and want to do something really easy (at least easy in my mind this should be easy)--I want to purchase an HD camcorder, record a video and then edit that video in Final Cut Studio.
Here is the rub--for some unknown reason, apple does not have the technical ability to allow AVCHD to be edited in the older version of Final Cut and/or on a Power PC based Mac. So, what I need to do is convert the AVCHD to a format that my version of Final Cut can work with--any ideas on how to do this....as Quicktime can't seem to do it (and no, I refuse to spend $3,000 for a new computer and 500 for a software upgrade).
Right now, I'm being forced towards getting a JVC GZ-HD6 (instead of my favored Canon HF10) since it's file format can be converted in Quicktime for use in Final Cut. What gives...is AVCHD video conversion really that hard--if it is...why is AVCHD so popular when JVC puts out something that works--their version can be converted easily. And for that matter, why can't Final Cut simply just work with the JVC file version?
Another question I have...if someone can help me out.... why is there such a compelling drive to have final cut work with specific cameras? Why not just download the video to the hard drive and work from there?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Its not an unknown reason, Victor. Your older version of FCP was coded prior to the establishment of AVCHD as a mainstream consumer format that might reasonably be expected to be need to be supported. Just as my old 4:3 black and white TV can't display a color picture or an HD picture or a full frame 16:9 picture, because it was engineered prior to the establishment of such formats, I'd need to upgrade it (replace it with a newer set) to get support for such newfangled technology ... you need to upgrade your version of FCP if you want support for the latest video formats.
I would beg to differ here.....its not like we are changing from an analog signal to a digital one (fundamental hardware differences), we are talking just a data compression format--just a different way to visualize and store data--it shouldn't take a $500 upgrade to do that--and with the previous analogy, it would require an upgrade of my Macintosh...which it shouldn't require, because in the end, it is just 1's and 0's and how they are stored on a hard drive and manipulated by the CPU and video card. So I'm still having a difficult time understanding why AVCHD can't work on a Power PC based Mac other than someone just doesn't want to code it.
what I need to do is convert the AVCHD to a format that my version of Final Cut can work with--any ideas on how to do this
You can try VoltaicHD from ShedWorx, which can convert your source files to a format (Apple Intermediate Codec) which is supported by your hardware/software
http://www.shedworx.com/?q=volmac-home
Thanks!
What gives...is AVCHD video conversion really that hard
Yes actually it is very complicated. AVCHD is a highly compressed acquisition format and certainly not a post production format as the complexity of the compression algorithm does not lend itself to real time processing (at least not yet with the current state of technological advancement).
But doesn't the latest version of Final Cut (only on an Intel based Mac that is) work with AVCHD? If so, why can't it work on a Power PC?
why is there such a compelling drive to have final cut work with specific cameras?
As with any complex hardware/software setup. Some configurations will be known to be fully compatible and some less so. This is just the real world and the way it works. You can find a full list of directly and fully supported hardware on Apple's Final Cut Studio support site.
http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/resources/supportdevices.php
What I meant here is why is Final Cut wedded to specific camcorders rather than being an open system that is wedded to data formats--if it is tied to a data format, vice hardware, upgrades to different data formats should not be difficult--a SOA and open ended architecture should be standard in this day and age.
Again, thanks for all the help and information!

Client support for Intel Mac

Does anybody know if and when there will be support for MacOs on Intel Macs for the client libraries?

Unfortunately not many people who use Oracle also use Macs (let's face it, Macs are a small percentage of desktop usage in most business spheres). Combine this with the fact that the Intel Mac is a recent innovation and so currently represents a sliver of Mac usage compared to PowerPC, and you'll see that Oracle clients on Intel Macs must be quite low on the priority scale for porting.
I agree that this is frustrating for you and your clients, but Oracle have to make hard commercial decisions. One of those decisions is to favour the mainstream OS flavours over the niche ones. They never supported Macs until Apple switched to a Unix-based OS, because the previous OS would have been too much work for too lsmall a market segment. They never supported BeOS either, for precisely the same reason.
I guess they will eventually port the Oracle clients to Intel Macs, but not just yet. Still,Any word on MacIntel support? you're not alone.

Does Active directory support for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?

Hello everyone,
I am pretty new to Active directory and my company has few requirements which he need to achieve by implementing Microsoft Active directory. I tried reading some blogs/documents on google but was not able to get the clear understanding. So would request
you all to please help me in getting the correct answers.
1) Does AD supports linux/mac/ubuntu clients getting authenticated from it?
2) Does AD supports root/non-root privilege login which is like admin/non-admin rights in windows for linux/mac/ubuntu?
3) Does Password policy works well on linux/mac/ubuntu cleints?
4) Does AD support auto-loading application after successful login in linux/mac/ubuntu clients? For eg: Logging into jabber client as soon as user logins IN.
5) Can AD trace and log the authentication information for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
6) Does AD support rules based login for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
7) Do we have high availability in AD runing Active-Active?
8) can we push patched/security policies via AD on linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
9) Can we schedule crons for linux/mac/ubuntu clients via AD like we have task schedules set-up in Windows?
10) Can linux/mac/ubuntu cleints be included part of GPO?
11) Auto-backups or auto mapping of shared drives by AD on widnows/linux/mac/ubuntu cleints?
12) Can we capture licenses etc(Server management) thing in AD.
13) Does AD support communication over SSL.
14) Does AD supports SSO authentication for linux/mac/ubuntu clients?
Thanks guys in advance
Regards
Sam

While I cannot speak for mac clients, there is a labour intensive method that allows linux distros to be able to connect to AD in a windows environment. Take a look at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2008.12.linux.aspx
for tips. Please note, it was designed with the Fedora/Red Hat Core in mind, but ubuntu distro's will also work, you just need the appropriate packages.

If you format in Guid for Intel Macs, Apple partition for PPC Macs for Boot drives, then why do my PPC Hard drives Boot in my 2007 Mac Pro, what gives?

I recently purchased a 2007 Mac Pro for a song, swapped the CPU's for octo chipsets and proceeded to wait for new Hdd's in the mail. I was told the Hard drives in my old G5 would not be bootable unless they're in Guid format. Disc Utility confirmed to use the specific maps as well and yet all of my 2006 PPC Power Mac G5 Hard drives boot in my MP without a hitch, although a few none universal apps do not work. So what am I missing, does it really matter which Apple partion map to choose from or is this a fluke?...

all of my 2006 PPC Power Mac G5 Hard drives boot in my MP without a hitch
Yes, and what version of Mac OS are they booting?
>> They will boot the OS that is on them, but not a later one.

4GB of RAM is supported for the Mac mini not 2GB

Hi everyone,
Its my first post and this is by no means the first one on this topic or with this finding, so your patience is appreciated.
I just wanted to tell everyone how happy I am that I put 4GB of DDR2 PC5300 RAM in my brand new Mac Mini and it works great. Apple say it only supports 2GB, why? The mac mini is not the easiest thing to upgrade I must admit. If you don't know your way around a PC then get a service centre to do it. But there is plenty on youtube etc to help you out.
Lots of people are only going up to 2GB as they do not want to risk paying for 2 x 2GB and it turns out not to work. It just so happened my Acer laptop had 4GB of the exact same RAM so I tried it out and it worked perfectly.
4GB in an Mac Mini is great as it means a fully functional mac for under £600 (inc RAM upgrade). I almost spent over twice that much on mac book pro and for my needs the mac mini matches it (any extra capacity the mac book pro has would go unused).
So I made the jump from PC to Mac and I am really happy. Macs are great esp for my creative needs. But they are generally tools and toys for rich people which is why I avoided them for so long.
Lets not forget guys if Apple supported the fact that 4GB works then why would you go out and spend all that money on a Mac that other than having a great screen (iMac) only offers 0.2-0.6Ghz more in power than a Mac mini that costs less than half the price.
iMacs are great as are mac books pros, but my Mac mini other than its graphics card offers me the same and looks great!!

No problem.
The mini is a steal and one of Apples best products I think. Design is great, value for money is great, features are great. It is a Mac for under £500! I have just purchased a RAID 1 based 800GB firewire drive for £130 from Amazon to make up for the small disk on this baby so my setup is even better. I have spent less than £700 and I am over the moon with my purchase. Find me another Mac or PC for that matter that provides me with so much for so little.
Oh and it also work great as a music player too. Comes with a remote for Front Row so when you are not using it as a computer it works amazing as a hi fi. It is amazing.
2.0ghz is more than enough juice for many things. I am running my Logic Studio and it is working very well and such an application requires above average juice. So for the average user who needs to pay twice as much for the extra .2 or .4 ghz.
I am going to get over this soon guys. Just happy thats all.

Best file system for PPC Mac, Intel Mac, and Win 7 PC

I really was nut sure which section to post this in, so this seemed like the best place. I have a 3TB external hard drive, that I need to read and write to on a G5 running 10.5.8, A MacBook Pro running 10.8.2, and various windows PC's, what is the best file system to use, or better yet, format, depending on what terminology you use, adn I need to transfer large files(larger than the 4GB limit on FAT). Im willing to try any suggestions. I would prefer not to use extra software, if it is neccessary though, I can on the mac's but not as easily on the Win PC's. I would also prefer an app from apple, I seem to have bad luck with third-party software, but if you know of one that works nicely, again, I'm willing to try any suggestions.

Another alternative is a two-partition external drive. All platforms supported without special software on one drive. You could use mnemonic partition names like HFS and EXF for mounted recognition. Think of this as a functional, single-drive, mirrored RAID set (RAID 1). A file copy to each partition (if needed) provides redundant platform interoperabililty and file backup.

Photoshop for PPC Mac

I have aPPC Mac, not an Intel Mac (Imac G5, 10.5.8). I want to purchase either Photoshop (CS2?) or Photoshop Elements. All I find are versions that require an Intel Mac. How can I find and purchase versions that will work with my computer?

As a former G5 iMac owner, I can say with a good level of certainty that the days of your PPC iMac are numbered. The software issue might be moot for that reason. Since the average lifespan of a G5 iMac has manifested itself to be right around three years, anyone running a G5 PPC iMac will be finding themselves in the position of replacing their computer with an Intel based Mac in short order.
