I have a G4 with OSX 10.2 and my printer died.  New printers only seem to work with 10.4.11 and newer - can I upgrade my G4 enough to use a new printer?

I have a G4 with OSX 10.2 and my printer died.  New printers only seem to work with 10.4.11 and newer - can I upgrade my G4 enough to use a new printer?

Aha!
Well in outer Mongolia ASAP means something totally different and involves weaving tent fabric from camel hair so that has taken me a bit of time....  However if you have the patience of a saint and the compassion of Mother Theresas' more helpful sister then....
So it would appear I have the following supersonics:
OSX 10.2.1
60 Gb HD
G4 dual processor 1GHz
Now the critical issue here is that I get the computer up to speed enough to be compatible with a modern photo printer - which I think needs to be 10.4.11 or even 10.5
Any assistance would be most gratefully and humbly recieved.

  • Have discovered how to split visual and audio tracks. However the cut away only seems to work with still images from iPhoto!

    trying to cut away from one video clip to a second one, while keeping the original sound track, works with still images imported from iPhoto, but cant get the video to drag/drop. please help thanks

    Drag clip over target, green plus sign appears.........clip appears at front of video, no menu option appears,
    OK that sounds correct. Just to clarify, when the sign appears, as you release the mouse button (or whatever you are using), no menu pops up but the clip immediately positions itself:
    at the front of the target clip, OR
    at the very beginning of your project
    Not sure where I'm heading here, just trying to get the complete picture.
    I di it once, but not again, do i need to double click/right click or something?
    No, there is no double-click or right-click involved at all. Just drag and drop, then select from the pop-up menu. You should be able to repeat this with no issues. I've also tested dropping video onto a still picture - the cutaway works on that as well.
    Something is definitely not working correctly - strange! Quit iMovie, then try deleting the preference file as I described in my last post. Quitting and relaunching iMovie might even fix it. Also, try restarting your Mac - that sometimes helps.

  • Time capsule only seems to work with my macbook pro, not vista. (wifi)

    So I received my TC today and set it up. Everything is working perfectly except the new wifi network I created only works with my macbook pro, not my other laptop that has windows vista installed on it. It only works with vista when I take off the password from the network. When it's on, it says something about the settings being invalid for that particular computer. I think it has something to do with the WPA2 encryption.
    Any suggestions?

    Nobody?

    What have you tried?
    You are going to get nowhere quick with the 6.1 utility in Mountain Lion if this is the only OS you have available.
    Look up how to install 5.6 utility under ML. At least then you can see printers. That is assuming you are trying to use USB.
    Has this worked ever on Mountain Lion? Did you download the drivers for that printer for ML?
    Plug it into a computer directly.. does it work? If it doesn't work locally it sure will not work via the network.

  • New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

    New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:

    I had iLife pre-installed on my aluminium Macbook 2009 with OSX Leopard on it. My hard drive broke but got most of the info off it and just installed snow Leopard on to a new drive and then downloaded and installed Mountain Lion over it. Now I don't have iLife anymore. How do I get it back?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Mac OS X doesn't come with iLife applications, so you have to install them manually after installing Mac OS X.
    Insert the Applications disc or Mac OS X Install Disc 2 DVD and install iLfe applications. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the latest update. If you want, you can purchase iMovie, GarageBand and iPhoto in the App Store, so you will get the most recent version

  • Hi I have a Lexmark all in one printer how do I get it to work with my ipad mini

    Hi I have a Lexmark all in one printer how do I  get it to work  with my  mini ipad

    It depends upon the model. It's wifi-enabled ? And is it listed on this page as supporting AirPrint : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 ?
    If not then do Lexmark have their own app in your country's store that supports that model ? If they don't then there are a number of third-party printer apps such as Print n Share and PrintCentral Pro which might work with it.

  • My New HP P2015d Printer ($400) doesn't seem to work with New Pavilion Slimeline 64 bit PC !

    My New HP P2015d Printer ($400) doesn't seem to work with New Pavilion Slimeline 64 bit PC ! I need some suggestions. Any help would be appreciated.
    The printer worked for a while and then out of the blue stopped working. We have a virus protection system, so I doubt it is a virus issue.
    *** We already tried to download the latest drivers and that doesn't seem to work ***

    Hi
    Are you trying to find your printer's email address? If so, check out details below

  • I have some OLD software on my Mac Pro. How do I know if it will work with Snow Leopard? Currently I'm using 10.5.8.

    I have some OLD software on my Mac Pro. How do I know if it will work with Snow Leopard? Currently I'm using 10.5.8.

    Michael Wasley's link (wikidot) is as accurate as any I can find.
    It's still wise to check with the vendors' websites for compliance.
    Biggest source of problems seems to be printer and scanner drivers.
    Appleworks 6.2.9 works fine in SL under Rosetta (note; Rosetta is installed by default in Leopard - in SL you may have to select it from the optional installations).
    Check particularly with Adobe products; some you'd think should work ok suddenly don't.

    Have changed my apple Id to a new email address. its all working fine on my PC and also on come up with the new ID on my  icloud page on my iphone but when i try to buy something from itunes etc on my phone, the log in box still contains the old id.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    It doesn't sound like you "changed" your Apple ID, sounds like you created a new one. Bad idea. All content bought with an Apple ID is forever tied to that ID. The ID that bought the content is the only ID that can update the content. Apple does not merge IDs not does Apple transfer content from one ID to another.

  • How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

    How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro? Or am I SOL?
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:    MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:    MacBookPro6,1
      Processor Name:    Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:    2.8 GHz
      Number of Processors:    1
      Total Number of Cores:    2
      L2 Cache (per Core):    256 KB
      L3 Cache:    4 MB
      Memory:    8 GB
      Processor Interconnect Speed:    4.8 GT/s
      Boot ROM Version:    MBP61.0057.B0F
      SMC Version (system):    1.57f18

    You can't. Theoretically, Thunderbolt devices that only transfer video and audio should work with Mini DisplayPort MacBooks like yours, but it's not the case of the Thunderbolt Display. Its firmware doesn't allow it to be used with non-Thunderbolt Macs, so you can't use the Thunderbolt Display with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
    Instead, you have to look for another screen, or you can get an adapter and connect the MacBook Pro to a TV

  • I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on

    I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on my phone. Can/should I delete the accounts on my phone and start over? It is somewhat of a nuisance to have two email accounts and double the amount of emails. The only thing different about the two iCloud accounts is the email addresses. Thanks.

    Well, seems I managed to unscrew this...I deleted my iCloud mail account and reinstalled it on my phone. That got rid of the duplicate .me/.mac email accounts.
