I dont meet the Mac OS x 10.4.10 requirement for the iphone

Hi,
I hope some one can point me in the right direction here....
I've just realised i need Mac OS X v10.4.10 for the iPhone, and my Powerbook g4 is on v.10.3.9.
Can anyone tell me what this means? will the two not be compatible? And is there a software update or something i can do to fix this?
Thanks,
Sarah

sarahh186,
Software updates for Mac OS X 10 are free, upgrades are not.
An update would be from Mac OS X 10.3.5 to Mac OS X 10.3.9 for example. An upgrade would be going to Mac OS X 10.4 or Mac OS X 10.5.
Mac OS X 10.5 was released on October 26, 2007 at which time the Apple Store online discontinued Mac OS X 10.4. Other retailers may still have copies of Mac OS X 10.4, but I can't make specific recommendations. If your PowerBook G4 has at least a 867 mhz G4, and 512MB of RAM you can upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5. You can check what your machine has by going to the Apple menu in the upper left hand corner of the screen, and then choosing "About this Mac"
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

  • Please tell me the System Requirement for developing Iphone,Ipad,Ipod Apps ?

    Hi All,
    can anyone please tell me the system requirement for developing Iphone, Ipad, Ipod applications.
    Thanks in advance :-)

    Start with the iOS dev center  >  http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action

  • "The software required for this iPhone is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the required software." I get the same error on my iPad.

    I upgraded my itunes to 10.6 and now I get the error "The software required for this iPhone is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the required software." I get the same error on my iPad. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Please help!!

    Edit: 10.6.3. I have uninstalled using the uninstall programs on itunes and then I downloaded again from the itunes website multiple times. This is not resolving the issue. The phone shows up in My Computer.

  • I dont want the iphone to search my GAL when composing a message?

    I have an exchange account set up on the phone. All I want that account to do is send and receive email. When i go into my Yahoo account and start typing a persons name, it searches the global address book of my exchange account. How do I stop the phone from doing this?

    Thanks alot John for your contribution. However that is not the problem. Its not that I dont remember the passwords for all my gmail accounts. Whenever I log in and type in my username and password, the system reverts to the original page and without the information I had typed in.When I repeat the process it reverts again to the original page without the details I had typed in.

  • Mac App Store needs real System Requirements for Games

    After reading about the 2011 Apple Design Awards I decided to download Anomaly: Warzone Earth from the Mac App Store. The system requirements listed are "Mac OS X 10.6 or later".
    My 2006 MacBook Pro runs 10.6.7 fine, so I thought I would be able to play, but my 2 GHz Intel Core Duo, 2 GB ram, and ATI X1600 graphics card are apparently nowhere near fast enough to actually play the game. Sure, the app launches, but the menu interface is jerky and the actual gameplay is completely unplayable. Instead of even laggy lo-res graphics, the screen is just a blank grey field with no visuals.
    If the App Store told me more specifically that a faster graphics card, more video memory, or a faster processor were required to play, I would have not bought the game (or at least waited until I upgraded my computer).
    I was tempted to try the game on my Windows 7 partition via Bootcamp (since Windows seems to have better graphics drivers and can often run the same games faster) but I don't feel like shelling out more money for another version that likely won't run.
    TL;DR
    I wish the Mac App Store listed real system requirements, instead of just assuming that nobody would keep using the same computer for five years.

    You can provide feedback to Apple.

    If you are not 13 as determined by the birthdate you enter, you can't create an account.

  • I keep getting an error message that i dont meet the minimum age requirements.  I am 35......anyone else having problems?

    anyone else having this problem?

    FaceTime uses Wi-Fi, so you have a weak Wi-Fi connection message. Your Wi-Fi needs to be upgraded.

  • My playlist on the iPhone won't sync but is available in i tunes. I have itunes 10.5 and iOS 5.1.1

    Hello there Harvey,
    When you say that the device is not recognized in iTunes, if it is not showing in the sidebar or anywhere in iTunes then I recommend this article named iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591.
    To begin troubleshooting this issue on your iOS device, first follow the steps in the appropriate troubleshooting assistant below:
    iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant
    iPod touch Troubleshooting Assistant
    iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
    If the issue persists after following the troubleshooting assistant, continue with the steps below, testing to see if the issue is resolved after each section.
    Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. iTunes 10 and later requires Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes and Install software updates on your Mac.
    Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you are not sure if your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications. Disconnect other USB devices, and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
    Restart your Mac.
    Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier only: Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
    Additional Information
    In rare circumstances, your device may be recognized after reinstalling iTunes, but after you restart your Mac, the device may not be recognized again. If this happens, and you are using Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard), please follow the steps in this article.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Does the iPhone 5 require a factory reset to switch from GSM to CDMA

    Before I ordered my iPhone 5 from StraightTalk I explained that I wanted to use it as a CDMA (Verizon) in the US and as a GSM (Vodafone) in Europe.
    I specifically asked if the phone would become a CDMA phone again when I removed the Vodafone GSM Sim after returning to the US. The answer was Yes.
    The CDMA function worked well in the US and the GSM function worked equally well in Europe.
    However, when I did remove the GSM card, the iPhone 5 stopped working.
    According to StraightTalk, the only way to return to the CDMA function is to have them do a factory reset, which means loosing all data and downloaded apps.
    Of course, nobody told me that when I asked the question.
    Does anybody know if this is a requirement for every iPhone 5 or just for StraightTalk phones?

    According to StraighTalk, their "resetting" will cause all data to be deleted. It does not make sense to me either.
    After I removed the SIM card, the mesage in the upper right corner said "No Service".
    Resetting Network Settings made no difference.
    When I talked to StraightTalk they made me dial some specifice codes. TFW service showed up in the upper left corner but they could not get it to work.
    My mobile number is still valid. When I dial it from a landline, I get my voicemail.
    As far as I know, StraightTalk uses the Verizon network for CDMA coverage (even if it says TFW on the phone) but I don't know how they tie into that network.
    The problem is that the StraightTalk people seem to work from a script that provides standard answers. They may not know what they are talking about or they they do not want to make the extra effort to resolve this problem.
    Either way, I am stuck with these people. If someone can tell me what should be done, I can ask them to take the necessary actions. Otherwise, I may have go through the exercise of making sure that all data has been synced with my Mac and then download all data and apps after StraighTalk had one their thing.

  • Why isnt the iphone 5 with virgin mobile anymore?

    Well im currently looking for a new phone on virgin mobile, and I dont want the iphone 5s or 5c just the 5. And I went on their website and it wasnt there. Just wondering why? And where I could buy one.

    Apple stopped making and selling the iPhone 5 when the 5C and 5S were released in the fall of 2013.

  • After I activate the iphone with an internet connection..

    After I activate the iphone with an internet connection on my home computer, do I ever have to have internet on my home computer for my iphone to work? Like do I need the itunes store for my iphone if I'm never going to buy anything from it or can I just use the internet connection from my iphone? Because after I activate my iphone I was thinking about canceling my internet on my home computer because I'll have it on my iphone..would that work? Thanks!

    As posted above me here. One of the Requirements for an iPhone is a PC and an Internet Connection.
    1. iPhone needs Internet to communicate with the servers when you do any iPhone Updates
    2. iPhone needs Internet to communicate with the servers when doing a restore
    3. iPhone uses internet when you connect to iTunes to confirm you are an AT&T User so you can see your number in the Summary screen
    Also if you ever want to put music, tv shows, podcasts etc. On iPhone most of this comes from the iTunes Store so that requires the Internet to download the content.
    Also if you want to take advantage of WiFi in your home then you need active internet if you got a Wireless Router
    If you do not use Internet on a PC allot, Check into a cheap DSL package and that should suite your needs for using the internet only when you need it.

  • I have a Mac mini OSX 10.4.11 Intel Core Duo, 512mb, 1.83 GHz with iTunes 9.0.3. What steps do I need to take to get my music library to my iPad. I dont think I meet the requirements to just upgrad to snow leopard and/or lion. I want the music I paid for

    I have a Mac mini OS X 10.4.11, intel core duo processor (not core 2 duo), with 512 mb and 1.83 GHz processor.  I only have version 9.0.3 of iTunes because it hasn't let me go higher, which I believe is because of the operating system.  I want to get my purchased music from the Mac mini to a different computer (that has the latest version of iTunes) and also my iPad.  The Mac mini does not meet the requirements listed to simply upgrade to snow leopard or lion. As far as I can tell.  Forgive me if I am lacking here...this is new to me.  What can I do to get the music transferred.  I have invested alot of money over the past few years on all this music that I should be able to transfer.  Thank you in advance if you can help me.

    If you want to sync it to the iPad from that Mac, you need to upgrade it to at least 10.5.8.
    If you want to copy the music to another Mac, you don't. Move the iTunes folder of the item in the Finder's sidebar over as you would any other folder. If you put it somewhere other than the Music folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and point it to that location.

  • HT201335 I have a UK apple mac and im trying to use mirroring so when searching google, ebay, writting document it shows up on my tv but i dont have the option when i click on the rectangular box in lower right hand corner. ANy one have advice?

    I have a UK apple mac and im trying to use mirroring so when searching google, ebay, writting document it shows up on my tv but i dont have the option of 'Mirroring' when i click on the rectangular box in lower right hand corner. Anyone have advice on how I can do this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.
    Do you meet these requirements.

  • I have a 2010 mac mini referbished and i dont see the Disk Utilitiy in the Utilities on the install disk. Is that because it is refurbished?

    I have a 2010 mac mini referbished and i dont see the Disk Utilitiy in the Utilities on the install disk. Is that because it is refurbished?

    The software that comes with your refurbished Mini should be identical to that which comes with a new Mini. Disk Utility should be in Applications > Utilities. Alternatively, choosing Utilities from the Go menu at the top of the finder windownwill take you directly to the Utilities folder.

  • HT204053 i dont have the icloud icon in my system preference on my mac. what do i do?

    i am trying to find my pics and photo stream on my icloud on my mac and there is no icon for pictures, i have all of iphones and ipads backed up to the cloud but there isn't a picture icon showing they have been uploaded. I go into system preferences on my mac and there is NO icloud icon. what do i do???

    Your signature says you have 10.4.6 (Tiger) - is this correct? (If it isn't please keep your signature up to date to prevent confusion). The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements - if you are indeed running Tiger it's possible that you may not be able to.
    If you are rusing an Intel Mac you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard first to be able to access the Mac App Store - it's available in the online Apple Store. However if you have a PPC Mac you cannot run Snow Leopard and cannot proceed further.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table , and that no system later than Tiger will run the Classic Environment.
