I get a message that something isn't supported by "this architecture"
I am trying to install a new printer and when I insert the software disc a message comes up saying it can't open it due to the wrong "architecture". I have never heard of this before! The disc plainly states that is supports OS 10.5.8.
Thank you, I do have an older 10.5.8 that doesn't have Intel, so that seems to be the problem! (Want to buy a brand new printer? )
The printer is an Epson XP-610, and the disc said OS 10.5.8, so word to the wise with old computers!

I'm trying to set up my iPad2. I am entering my Apple ID and get a message that says "try another apple id, this ID is already being used. The only time I've used this Apple ID (my emal) was when I purchased a mac for my college aged child.
Thank you...I had selected the incorrect option to create an Apple ID....so backing up a few pages and doing as you stated worked!

Cannot download OSX Maverick? My current system is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and even when logged into the app store I'm getting the message that I can not download at this time. Try Later?
Are you connected via wifi? If so, and it is an option, try connecting using a ethernet cable. It sometimes seems to help as it can give a more reliable connection for the 5.3gb download.
If you do manage to download it you may want to make a copy of the installer file - which gets downloaded to the Applications folder - before running it as it self-deletes on successful installation. It may save you another monster download in the future. -

How do I download iPhoto to my iPad 2 iOS 6? It refuses to fully download. Towards the end of the download, I get a message that says "unable to download at this time." This time has now lasted two weeks. I already have iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. Many thanks.
Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Today I turned on my iMac (OSX 10.5.8 1.8GHz PowerPC G5, 1.25 GB DDR SDRAM) mounted Firefox and was prompted to Download and install Firefox4 (FREE) which I did.
I was prompted to replace the previous Firefox with the newly downloaded and now I can't find the old version and the new version says it isn't supported on this architecture. The icon has a zero with a slash across it.
What do I have to do?Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

IPhoto "isn't supported by this architecture"?
On my iMac (circa late 2008), whenever I try to open iPhoto, a window pops up that says that the application can't be opened because it isn't supported by this architecture. The icon is no longer the sunset photo with the camera in front of it, its just a "no" sign (circle with a cross through it). Is there any way to recover iPhoto?
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.
