Hello, is the video issue because Flash is disabled?
You must get 10.6 first if you want even later.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory, I say 6 GB
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, I say 50 GB.
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

  • What is the easiest way to upgrade from OS X 10.4.11 to 10.5 Leopard

    what is the easiest way to upgrade from OS X 10.4.11 to 10.5 Leopard

    You should consider this:
    Here are the minimum specs your Mac will need to run Leopard, according to Apple:
    Intel, G5, or 867MHz+ G4 processor
    512 megs of RAM MINIMUM (though if you only have 512 megs of RAM you may actually find you need more.)
    DVD drive (Leopard is shipping on a DVD, and your Mac needs to read it to be able to install it)
    9GB of free disk space
    Hope this helps

  • I recently upgraded my Mackbook Pro ma operating system from OSX lion to Maverick, but in the process I can not access my iphoto 9.1.5. How do I access it?

    I recently upgraded my Mackbook Pro ma operating system from OSX lion to Maverick, but in the process I can not access my iphoto 9.1.5. How do I access it?

    Download the Mavericks version from the App Store.
    The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.
    iWork and iLife for Mac come free with every new Mac purchase. Existing users running Mavericks can update their apps for free from the Mac App Store℠. iWork and iLife for iOS are available for free from the App Store℠ for any new device running iOS 7, and are also available as free updates for existing users. GarageBand for Mac and iOS are free for all OS X Mavericks and iOS 7 users. Additional GarageBand instruments and sounds are available for a one-time in-app purchase of $4.99 for each platform.

  • Emac upgrade: What's the easiest way to upgrade from OS 10.2.8 to OS 10.3?

    I just gave my Emac to my parents...I want to upgrade from OS 10.2.8 to OS 10.3 and continue upgrading so the computer is as current as it can be. What is recommended? Downloading OS 10.3 from Mac downloads and progressing through upgrades until I hit OS 10.5 or is there an easier way? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Right now, I can't upgrade at all until the system gets OS 10.3. At least, that's what the downloads page is telling me.
    Thanks for your time...Steeler58

    The version of Mac OS X 10.2 you have, 10.2.8, is the highest you can get for free. You cannot download Mac OS X 10.3; that has always been something you would have to pay for. The same applies to Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard); each would be a separate purchase at retail. If it were me and my machine, I'd skip 10.3 and find a retail copy of Mac OS X 10.4. You may still be able to purchase 10.4 from the Apple Store if you call them (it is not available for order from the Apple Store via the Web). You may also be able to find a copy through one of the computer dealers that specializes in discontinued software or through eBay. You must get the full retail version; a system installer disk intended for some other model of Mac will usually not work and is not legally licensed for separate sale and use on other systems.
    Note that the normal 10.4 installer only came on DVD - CDs were only available via special order - so your eMac will need to have a DVD-capable drive, either a Combo drive or a SuperDrive.

  • What is the easiest way to upgrade multiple iphone 4's to iphone 5's?

    I work for a small company.  We have 11 iPhones (10 4's and 1 3GS) and we are upgrading everyone to iPhone 5's.  Each phone is managed by it's owner and either synced to a home computer, a business computer or through iCloud.  Is there an easy way to transfer everything between the old phones and new phones?

    The number of devices is irrelevant as there is no mass way to migrate multiple devices.
    Each device is upgraded/replaced one at a time.

  • What is the easiest way to upgrade 100  Ipads to IOS5.

    Got 100 brand new Ipads, want to upgrade them all to IOS 5.  Right now I'm having to register every one, naming them all like they should be, and then manually upgrading each one.  Please tell me there is an easier way.  I see Lion Server lets you manage them, but I'm not sure if that would include upgrading.  Probably in the next 6 months, we're going to be responsible for another 100-200, so I'd like to have something in place.  I've used the Iphone Config Utility to setup the wireless and make a few changes, but nothing really big.  Would a MDM be able to upgrade them?  Is Lion Server an actual MDM?
    Thanks for any help.

    This says that you can update IOS.  Gonna play with it later.

  • What is the easiest way to export all tables data from Oracle to MS SQL Server?

    Hello MS,
    I would like to export all tables from Oracle 11.2 to MS SQL Server 2012 R1.
    Using the tool "Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant v6.0 for Oracle" did not work for me because there are too many warnings and errors regarding the schema creation (MS cannot know it because they are not the schema designer). My idea is
    to leave/skip the schema creation to the application designer/supplier and instead concentrate on the Oracle data export and MS SQL data import.
    What is the easiest way to export all tables data from Oracle to MS SQL Server quickly?
    Is it:
    - the „MS SQL Import and Export Data“ Tool
    - the “MS SQL Integration Services” Tool
    - not Oracle dump *.dmp format because it is a propritery binary format
    - flat file *.csv (delimited format)
    Thanks!

    Hi lingodingo,
    If you want to directly export all tables from Oracle database to SQL Server, I suggest you use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard. Because you just need to follow the wizard with GUI, this is the easiest way.
    If you want to make some modification for the tables‘ data before loading to SQL Server, I suggest you use SQL Server Integration Services package. For more details, please refer to the following similar thread:

  • What is the easiest way to download a document from SAP DMS with C#?

    Hi,
    I've been sifting through this forum and looked at various posts and sample code, but so far my quest hasn't been fruitful.
    What is the easiest way to download a physical document file from SAP DMS using C#? I'm using the NCo 3 (SAP .NET
    Connector 3).
    Requirements
    - As few dependencies as possible (not adding or changing functionality in SAP)
    - C# code (MS Visual Studio 2012)
    - SAP Environment: NetWeaver 7.4.0
    Thanks for all help.
    Regards,
    Frank

    We've been using BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKOUT2, but there seems to be a limitation. From what I've found on Google, you must enable the use of the SAPGUI through the flag UseSAPGUI when connecting to SAP.  It works, but my issue is that when I use it on a web server, I end up with some error when trying to start the GUI.  There is very little recent information for this out there right now.

  • What is the recommended way to upgrade system ruby and python binaries and their libraries?

    I'd like to upgrade my system ruby to 1.9.2 instead of old 1.8.7. Also was wondering what's the recommended way of upgrading any scripting languages installed on system?

    Hi Sogaard,
    see below:
    How does SAP recommend to integrate Webi-report in the SAP Portal? Is it through an URL iview, the iview templates (thumbnail, folder and alert) or through the Master Iview?
    The sample iViews are just samples for a particular case. The iView template allows you to use any application on the BusinessObjects system - including the viewing of content. What you are looking for is the creation process for WebI. So you have 2 options: you can use the KM integration and you can build a java application that offers the workflow you looking for and integrate it with the iView template
    Depending on what method should be used, I'd like to know which settings to be focused on. For instance, if the Master Iview is to be used, should opendocument be used instead of reports? And what other customizations will have to be done in order to integrate a Webi-report instead of a Crystal-Report?
    OpenDocument is for viewing reports. The Installation Guide outlines the integration of the iView template and the KM part.
    What is the intended use for the BOBJ repositoy manager? Would that be the way to integrate the Info-view?
    This is the integration into the KM repository which provides a richer functionality then just an iView.

  • Im new to Mac and wanted to know what is the easiest way to transfer files from a mac computer and mac extenal hardrive to windowns and vice versa?

    Im new to Mac and wanted to know what is the easiest way to transfer files from a mac computer and mac extenal hardrive to windowns and vice versa?

    For small amount of files, a regular USB stick or drive, it's already formatted with a MBR and FAT32 most likely which works both on PC's and Mac's.
    External drives if you need more space.
    However FAT (or Fat32 or MSDOS) has a 4GB file size limit. So if your transfering files bigger than that then you need to format it exFAT on the Windows machine.
    Vista and Win 7 can do this, Windows XP one can download a free exFAT upgrade from Microsoft.
    Mac's can read/write the MBR and FAT/exFAT (10.6.5 and later) formats, it's best to format it on the Windows machine, even though the Mac can format it too, it's better to do it on Windows then take it to the Mac to confirm.
    Rack your brain here on it.

  • I have a new iMac. I have set up a user page for myself, for my wife and an administrator page. My question is my wife needs files from my user page transferred to her page. What's the easiest way?

    I have a new iMac. I have set up a user page for myself, for my wife and an administrator page. My question is my wife needs files from my user page transferred to her page. What's the easiest way?

    I've done this by dragging files from my user page to her drop box. In Finder, drag the required files and hover over the hard disc icon in the navigation bar on the left. As you hover, it will open another finder window showing the contents. Work your way down these windows into <Her username | Public | Dropbox>. Drop the files into the dropbox. She can then retrieve them from her user page.
    Good luck,

    Does anyone know whats the easiest way to tranfer files from pc to mac

    What kind of files, how many files, total amount of file space? There are many ways to move files from platform to platform, but until you tell us what the nature of the task is we can't give you a proper solution.
