I can't install mac os x 10.2.1 from mac os x 10.1.5 installed.
I can install mac os x 10.1 perfectly but when I try install mac os x 10.2.1 the the mouse pointer freeze in the upper left corner and I can't click the "continue" button of the installer. I tried with a USB mouse but I can't type after install, the keyboard freeze too.
That version was not made for your model iBook. Some software is model-specific. That may be what you're running up against.
A retail version of Mac OS X 10.2 should work for you.

How do I know what size hard drives I can install? I currently have 4 x 2TB drives installed and am looking to go bigger. 4 x 4TB would be ideal and if you have suggestions on which drives might give me best performance for HD video editing that would be nice too.
Also can I install more RAM?
ere is some information to help.

i have a mac mini early 2009 and i want to install 8 gb ram but it doesn,t work.
it says on the OWC site that i have to install the EFI firmware 2.1 update but it won,t let me,it says(the mac mini)that i don,t need this update.
my kernel is 32bit but my EFI is 64 bit,how can i install 64 bit so i can use the 8GB cause with 32 bit i can,t use more than 4gb ramCheck your computer's EFI Boot ROM version;
1. From the Apple () menu, choose About This Mac
2. Click More Info Under Contents
3. Select Hardware
If your Mac mini's Boot ROM version is the following or more recent, then you do not need the update to use 8 GB of RAM;

Can I install a Lacie D2 Drive in my Mac Pro
newbie question, sorry!
I have a Lacie D2 500 gig external drive that has crapped out on me. I was told that it could be possible that the enclosure is the problem and not the drive itself. If I take the drive out of its enclosure can I install it in one of the Bays in the mac pro?

It could just be the dead/defective power adapter Lacie seems to be a known for. Before you crack the drive open, i would strongly recommend that you test it with a known, working power adapter. Perhaps a friend with the same drive? If you're lucky, i've seen some of the Lacie drives set up in Apple Retail Stores, and perhaps an employee might let you test your drive there. Worst case scenario, you could order a new adapter which will set you back $19.00.

Can I install an internal hard drive in i-mac intel 17" ?
Where can I get an internal hard drive compatible for intel i-mac? I need a larger hard drive, like 250gb or something. Can I install it myself?
You can go to a apple service center like CompUSA and have them install one for you. If you buy the drive from them, they will install it for free, otherwise it is like a 40 dollar charge. DO NOT attempt to install it yourself, not only will you void your warranty, the intel iMac is very difficult to open and work on and you will probably break something.

How can I install windows 8 on a mac without superdrive?
Hi there.
I have an old Macbook pro (early 2007) which is still quite good, except from the superdrive which got broken.
I would like to completely wipe out OSX (Lion) from that and install Windows 8 instead.
Problem is, I cannot install it from optical drive, since it's broken (and plus, I don't have access to an external drive).
Is it even possible to install windows 8 from USB on this computer? If so, what should I do?
Thank you!You can only install Windows from an external disc drive or an USB drive in one of these computers:
- MacBook Pro with Retina display.
- MacBook Air.
- iMac (Late 2012).
- Mac mini (Mid 2010 and newer).
As you don't have any of these computers, you need the SuperDrive to install Windows 8. In your case, you have to install a SuperDrive in your MacBook Pro in order to install Windows by using Boot Camp -

Power Mac G4 (Dig Audio) Can't install OS 9.2.1
I'm having an issue with trying to install OS 9.2.1 on a PM G4. I boot from the CD, but when I get to the actual install phase, it stops and gives me a general error. The Disc itself is clean and I know it works (used it on my iMac G3). I'm using a freshly formatted HD.
I just had to replace the logic board battery, I don't know if that had anything to do with it. Is 9.2.1 even able to be installed on this mac? I also try OSX 10.3, but I get a broken folder icon. Hardware test says everything's peachy, but nada.
Strange thing, when I first boot to the OS9 CD, it tells me that there's a problem with the CPU. Does anyone know of a test that I can run from say an external HD since it only has one DVD drive?Nicholas Chase wrote:
Well, I can't install any software since I can't get a stable OS9 environment. The thing barely boots at all. How would I go about making my own installer?
I haven't make an 9.x installer in so long, I've forgotten. Basically you want to clone it say to a disc image (add the bits you need), then burn the image. There are special tricks in 9.x because you have to make sure the cloned system folder is blessed. Hopefully other in this thread who know the details will step up to answer that part.
I emailed Sonnet about the problem, but I have yet to hear back. If they can tell me which processor I have in here (if the system profiler is even telling me useful info about the cpu) I can get the right firmware update an it. Just buy the description I'm fairly sure that http://www.sonnettech.com/support/downloads/processorupgradecards.html#encorefir mware is the one that I need.
We'll with a DA, it's definately the "Encore" series, and not the Encore ZIF line (which are for the B/W and G4 PCI graphics). The page I linked earlier:
http://www.sonnettech.com/support/techtips/encorest.html
problem one mentions some software needed to get proper reporting of the CPU speed.
Problem is I can't find the mentioned "Metronome" utility. My guess is that it's included in the "Crescendo/Encore Processor Upgrade Software". That's not a firmware update, looks like OS level support software.
If you can't get a stable Mac, do NOT try to upgrade the firmware of the CPU. That's asking for trouble; you could end up in a worse position than you are now, e.g. a messed up upgrade.
Sonnet tech support is pretty good, I've dealt with them in the past.
There may be a sticker on the card that can help identify the card. Indeed it may help to know which exact model is in there and what it looks like. With recent Sonnet upgrades, the heatsink is already attached as a single unit -- that's typically a good think since you don't have to worry about the heatsink/chip interface (thermal paste, etc). There was a time with some Sonnet's where you would reuse the existing heatsink; I'm not sure if those were ever available for the DA but raises issues of whether thermal paste/grease was properly applied.
For the moment do NOT attempt to remove the heatsink, you've gotta be sure which model you have before moving on.
Mind take a look at the following page to see if any of the current models look like what you have inside?

I'm still pretty new to macs, but if the course of futzing with this one I've learned quite a bit. Still not enough to make an installer.
Just a question, but where did you get this Mac? Did you know ahead of time that it had a CPU upgrade in it? This sort of thing can matter, which unfortunately you found out.
I've done a lot of upgrading (incl. CPUs) and tinkering of a G3, DA, and MDD G4s. So some of the issues that can arise I still have somewhere in my brain -- I'll see what I can do to help you through this. Whenever I've done CPU upgrades, I've always kept the original CPUs just in case. In fact my DA 733 still works because I kept the original parts; the upgrade I stopped working at the end of last year. The seller of the Mac didn't happen to give you the original parts? -

Safari won't quit, so I can't install Office Mac.
Hey guys. I got my new Office Mac, and I was hoping to install it. It said Firefox and Safari needed to close. Firefox was a snap (good job guys!), but Safari is doing HORRIBLE. It is not forcing to quit at all, and I don't want to restart or shut down (I bet it wouldn't work.) Now, according to THIS issue... I can't install my Mac Office 2011, and THAT on the other hand stinks, because I need it for school projects.
Is anyone willing to offer advice??? Thanks!!!
~AppleFan17You say even force quitting won't work? When Safari is open hold down Option + ⌘ + Q.

Hiya, i am new to the latest version of creative cloud. Wonder if i can install creative cloud in both mac and PC? And up to how many computers can i install the creative cloud? If I am going to graduate in a few months time, can I still use student discount to purchase the one year package and pay it off in one go? Thanks! !
Sure , you can install on both Mac as well as PC .
Max activation allowed = 2 computers.
Student discounted price will be valid for one year.
Later you can purchase with different Adobe ID , with valid proof of eligibility .
Once you had purchased yearly prepaid subscription , it will not expire for another one whole year , whether you are still student or finished graduation. It will expire after year. -

How can I install OSX lion on my completely wiped mac mini?
I have a 2011 mac mini server edition (Without CD drive), and tried to partition it to a RAID0 last night. I reformatted both drives (Just the inner partitions, so It shouldn't have affected the recovery partition), and now it will not boot.
When I turn the computer on, it flashes a question mark folder, and when I boot with option, it gives me a list of wireless networks on a grey screen. When I select my network, it logs into it, but doesn't do anything further. It will not let me boot into the recovery partition at all.
How can I re-install lion on this computer? I do have a firewire cable, so I could do target disc mode if that's even possible.
Thanks!DopeyBovineMan wrote:
That just isn't practical for me, to be booting off an external.
Would a flash drive work, or something to that effect?
nope, you need a external drive 1TB in size to hold all the data from the 2-500GB's and double as a backup when the RAID 0 fails which they are twice as likely to do.
you can only install OS X on a Mac, so once it's there you clone it to the 1TB, option boot from it, create the RAID and reverse clone.
no Lion Recovery, that's why you need another way to get Lion back, that's why you got to make the Lion Recovery USB first before doing anything.
