I have a mac mini os x mountain lion can i put snow leopard on the partition

on the same partition?  no.  you'll need to create another partition if you want to dual boot, and install SL there.

    I have the 2008 version Mac OS X 10.5.8, will I be able to dowload Lion

    Hi
    No. Read this:

    It will tell you what you need. You can't download Snow Leopard. You'll have to purchase it. See here:

    Hi all,

  • Sharing iTunes with a Mac Mini OS X Mountain Lion Server

    I'm adding a Mac Mini OS X Mountain Lion Server to my home network. What options do I have to inetgrate iTunes into the server? Currently my master iTunes library is housed on a RAID on a Mac Pro, home sharing is on, and it interfaces over the network just fine into Apple TV (3rd gen). For instance, with Server can all devices on the network have access to that library?  Could the library stream to the Apple TV in the living room, an iMac in the office, an iPhone in another room all simultaenously? Also, can any Server member order iTunes Store content and cause it it to be placed into the master library on the Ser

  • If I purchase a mac mini now - will Mountain Lion be avilable free?

    If I purchase a mac mini now - Will Mountain Lion be available free - or should I wait to purchase the mac mini?

    No. It will come with Lion installed. A free upgrade to Mountain Lion would only occur when Apple announces such an option, and only to those who purchase the computer within some period of time after ML is released.
    If saving $30 or so to upgrade to ML is your goal, then wait until it is released and Apple initiates an Up-To-Date program.

  • If you buy mountain lion, can you put it on both of your machines, or do you have to buy it for each?

    If you buy Mountain Lion, can you put it on both of your machines or do you have to buy it for every device....?

    You can use it on all the Macs you own. To save time downloading, after you DL it the first time,choose "Install Later". Then duplicate the "Install Mac OS X ML" in your Applications folder and save it off to disk. Then go back and double-click on "Install Mac OS X" in your Applications folder to begin the install.

    Hello,
    If you just do a normal time machine backup on your macbook pro and then plug that harddrive into your new air; you should be able to just use migration assistant to transfer all your files. You wouldnt need to upgrade to mountain lion on your macbook pro.
    Hope it helps,

  • Is mountain lion can out put 10 bit colour? I nee to buy EIzo Monitor

    Is mountain lion can out put 10 bit colour? I nee to buy EIzo Monitor.

    No. OS X cannot do it. If you want to drive an Eizo at its full 10 bits per channel you need to use a Windows PC.

  • I downloaded Mountain Lion from being on Snow Leopard and lost my entire Office 2004 suite, including Entourage which was my main email server. If I download Office 2008, will I retrieve all my lost Entourage email folders?

    Other options?

    It's not that simple. You didn't lose your Office 2004 suite. Office 2004 won't run in Mountain Lion. You need to update your Office software. You need to purchase either Office 2008 or 2011. Either one can run in Mountain Lion.

  • I just downloaded and installed mountain lion on my macbook pro but it didn't change the picture on desktop to mountain lion in is still snow leopard is that supposed to be that way.

    I just downloaded and installed mountain lion but it kept snow leopard on my screen is that supposed to happen or did i miss something?

    Then you're good to go.  Updating your OS doesnt change your desktop background, you can do that manually, if you wish.

    Sorry, but that is correct. You need Snow Leopard to sync your phone and the latest version of iTunes and you old G5 cannot run that.

  • Just brought my imac out of retirement and I need to go from 10.5.8 to Moutain Lion but I can't find snow leopard in the mac store?

    I also live in Dubai so getting them to send out a disc isn't an option and the stores here are not stocking snow leopard anymore.....I wish I still had the disc I used to upgrade my MBP!

    Upgrading to Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
    Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
    Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
      1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)

  • Bought you Mac Mini from Amazon? Did it come with Snow Leopard installed?

    I want to buy a Mac Mini from Amazon simply because it's cheaper and there's no tax, the question is, does it come with Snow Leopard like the one from Apple does?
    I am not being a cheap @ss here, i lost my job and trying to save every penny i can.
    Totals:
    Amazon: $577.95
    Apple w/student discount: $599.78
    The 9.75% tax is killing us here in CA

    Even if it does not come with Snow Leopard installed, or the upgrade drop in disk, you should still be able to get it for S&H from Apple thru the Up-to-Date program.
    ... If you’ve purchased a qualifying computer or Xserve on or after June 8, 2009 that does not include Mac OS X Snow Leopard, you can upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard for $9.95.*
    This program ends December 26, 2009. Your completed order form must be postmarked or faxed within 90 days of the date of your purchase of a qualifying computer or Xserve (described in this offer) or by December 26, 2009, whichever is earlier.
    Also, you may want to look into Apple's refurbished Mac minis. They are usually a Mac that was DOA when shipped to a customer new and has been repaired by Apple. They are technically brand new and carry the same warranty. Occasionally they have surprises, like upgraded RAM.

  • I have OS X 10.5.8.  Can I load Snow Leopard without losing data and then upgrade to Lion?

    I am using OS X 10.5.8.  I have a disk with Snow Leopard on it, but I don't know if I downloaded it.  Can I download this Snow Leopard disk without risking a loss of data on my MacBook Pro?

    If by "download" you mean "install," then you can install Snow Leopard over a Leopard system. But anything can happen, so it would be wise to backup first.
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from the Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Install Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Boot from the Snow Leopard installer DVD.  Follow the onscreen instructions. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
