I just bought a wiped Mac PowerBook G4 where can I find a software disk like OSX it's asking for?

I just bought a Mac PowerBook G4 from Cashland (which is a pawn shop) and they totally wiped all the software off the computer which is company policy, but now I can't use it because of that. The computer is asking for OSX software which I have no disk, where can I obtain the disk to put the correct software on this computer? It's also asking for a password and I have no idea what it was because Cashland didnt obtain it when they bought it from the previous owner...

For starters, try asking this question in the correct forum and NOT and iPhone forum - did you not look before you posted?
Probably best to take it back to Cashland for a refund as there will be nothing you can do and you may never be able to use it.

  • Just bought my first Mac. How/where do I find the preinstalled office

    Just bought a my first Mac. Where can I find preinstalled Office?

    Hi there,
    Microsoft Office does not come preinstalled standard on your new mac. You may certainly purchase it or even iWork, which is the Apple version and is significantly more affordable, and available from the Mac App Store.
    Welcome to Apple
    Cheers.

  • Where can I find one of those silicone body covers (not hardshell) for the Mac Book Pro? And is this a good idea?

    Where can I find one of those soft silicone body covers (not hardshell) for the Mac Book Pro? And is this a good idea since Apple no longer makes them? I-phones use them now.

    Personally I use the Speck hard case on both of my MacBooks and they are the greates! Look around on Amazon and eBay and you can find them for $30-40. I wouldn't really recomend a silicon case for a macbook, but it's your preference.

    I had this problem as well. I was under the gun on time and just purchased it anyway. After installation I contacted support and they refunded me the amount.
    You should have a backup of your servers regardless of circumstances. You would then be able to restore the server software.
    When Apple repair machines they will often just swap it or swap the hard disk and will not make any effort to transfer your files. They assume you are doing a backup. Anybody running servers absolutely has a responsibility to ensure they have aduequate backups even more than 'normal' users. While Time Machine may not be wholely suitable for backing up servers Time Machine is so simple even normal users can use it and therefore no longer have any excuse for not doing backups.

  • I just bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. Where can I get the serial number to set it up?

    The serial number is not on the box.

    Serial numbers are never on the box;  They are normally inside the box for security reasons and they should be on the CD sleeve as shown in this picture:
    Some big stores in the States normally insert a leaflet inside the box with a Redemption Code on it as shown in this picture:
    If you have a redemption code then you need to go to this link and redeem it for a real serial number:

  • HT3669 i have just downloaded my new software for my epson xp 605. installed pkg , can't find my software in my applications , i am looking for my epson scan

    Yes I have just downloaded my epson XP605 new software from apple ,  i  have installed it , but i cant find it in my applications , ? also cant find my epson scan? any help please.

    Apple only distributes the printer drivers. If you want the tools that go along with your printer/scanner, you need to download them from Epson.
    The utilities (ink levels and such) are usually stored in /Library/Printers/EPSON.
    You should be able to scan with Image Capture, but it is very basic (but sufficient for everything I do). Although I imagine it has gotten better over the years, I always hated the bundled software. I stopped installing that stuff years ago and just use the built-in tools, where possible.

    Where can I find fre software to print CD/DVD labels for the Mac?

    CD/DVD labels should only be used on tray loading burners.  Not slot loaders. 
    Use magic marker pens to label your CD/DVDs. 

  • I just bought a recertified Mac Mini, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.

    I just bought a recertified Mac Mini core duo - it's not the newer model-, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it  and using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.
    The company I bought it from is not Apple, and I may regret that. It was in my price range, though.
    This is the first time I've used this community, and I've been a Mac owner since 2000. Thanks in advance!

    when you say "Mac flat screen LCD", do you mean this:
