I've got 10.3.9 on eMac 1.42 GHz. What's the order of available updates?

I want to update my OS ultimately to 10.5.9, the maximum I understand.
I'm running up to 10.3.9 on eMac 1.42 GHz.
Simply put, can i install 10.4.3, or even 10.4.11 without 10.4.1 or 10.4.2 without any problems, or is there a official order of available updates, whether that means buying updates or +downloading free+ updates, that I can follow knowing I've updated my OS properly?
I hope this makes sense. it should be simple but that's why I'm here, for knowledge, hopefully without fuss and with clarity.
Thank you for your time.

wilberforceroland , welcome to Apple Discussions.
You can skip Tiger & go directly to Leopard. One consideration. If you are currently using old apps in classic mode, Leopard doesn't support classic mode. You'll have to use Tiger.
*OS X 10.4 Tiger Requirements*
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301341
*Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements*
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard (& Tiger) is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*.
When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710
Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.

EMac: What's the CRT's Dot Pitch

Hi. I'm planning to mod an eMac at a thrift store for $27 equivalent (not sure how hard it can be revived but they say it doesn't start. It's got no keyboard nor mouse but it has 128MB memory and the power cord's still there) for it to work as a regular TV for retro gaming on a Dreamcast with games doing VGA resolution but what is the dot pitch of the eMac's CRT? Is it .22?
Also if anyone has a link on how to mod the eMac as a VGA monitor so it can be connected to a Dreamcast with a VGA box, that'd be very time saving and very helpful.
Thank you in advance.
God bless, Rev. 21:4

According to the Apple Development notes for the 1Gen (USB 1.1) eMacs:
The built-in video display uses a 17-inch CRT (16-inch viewable diagonal). The CRT uses shadow-mask technology and has a dot pitch of 0.25 mm. The display has a fixed horizontal scan rate (72 kHz) and supports five resolutions. Table 3-6 lists the resolutions and the vertical scan rates supported.
The display has a mode called Theater Mode that increases the display luminance when playing full-screen video material. Theater Mode is an option in the Displays control panel and is active only when an application requests it.
The display supports pixel depths up to 24 bits (millions of colors) at all resolutions.
Table 3-6
Resolution
640 by 480
800 by 600
1024 by 768
1152 by 864
1280 by 960
Notes for the 2Gen (USB 2.0) eMacs show the hardware specs are basically the same.
Unfortunately those documents do not show any video pin details that would help you with the modding.

I got new hard driver for my MacBook I don't have the cd but I do have flash drive that has the software I need help because when I turn on my laptop it shows me a file with question mark how can I install the software from the flash driver?

Hold down the Option key while you boot your Mac. Then, it should show you a selection of devices. Click your flash drive and it will boot from that.

It says I've got 12,3 GB free space left, of my total 25GB. But my iPhone tells me there is no more space to take pictures or download stuff. It clearly says I have 12,3 GB left. What's the issue here??

The issue is probably space on the phone, not in your iCloud account. (Space in your iCloud account does not give you more space on your phone.) Check Settings>General>Usage at the top to see how much available space you have. If it's low, you'll have to delete or sync something off our phone to make room for more.

HT2998 Hi, I try to conect Mac Mini from 2009 with my HD Tv Samsung F 6400 . With Mini Dvi conection and adapter to HDMI input in TV I got picture but not sound! I have analog cable from the phones out from mac but imposible to conect to TV? Can you HLP

Hi, I try to conect Mac Mini from 2009 with my HD Tv Samsung F 6400 . With Mini Dvi conection and adapter to HDMI input in TV I got picture but not sound! I have analog cable from the phones out from mac but imposible to conect to TV? Can you HLP?

You really need a newer Mac Mini with a true HDMI output, because that Mac Mini's DVI output does not support Audio.
You might try a 3.5mm to RCA adapter
from the Mac Mini's headphone jack to the TV's audio input,
but that would require being able to select the Audio input in the TVs menu while using it's HDMI input.
Optionally you could also use an external 2.1 Speaker System or patch the audio from the Mac Mini to your home stereo system to enhance that older Mac Mini's audio.

I've got a new computer and when i plug in my ipod, the message says this ipod has a different itunes library do you want to delete it and use this new library/ you will loose all content. I want one itunes account but can't figure out how.

i've got a new computer and when i plug in my ipod, the message says this ipod is synced with another itunes account. do you want to erace the contents and set up with this itunes. i want one account only but don't want to loose my ipod contents. tried uninstalling itunes and redoing get the same message.

Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

My wife and I got Iphone 4S same day 2 years ago. I used the same Apple ID for both. We do not use iCloud, but today after I updated my phone to IOS7 I keep getting her texts on my phone ans vice versa.

My wife and I got Iphone 4S same day 2 years ago. I used the same Apple ID for both. We do not use iCloud, but today after I updated my phone to IOS7 I keep getting her texts on my phone ans vice versa. I turned off imessage in message settings. Seems to have stopped now? Never did this before IOS7. Will I have more troubble when her phone updates to IOS7? Is icloud going to be forced on me then?

This is being caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage on both phones. To separate your messages, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
Either uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on both phones; or
If you want to continue to receive iMessages at this email address, on one of the two phones, tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using a different Apple ID.

If you just got it back and it isn't fixed or something else is wrong with it take it back and have them do the repair correctly.

Did you remove your account information from the other person's iPhone?

I just recently got back from iraq and bought a iphone 4 like 4 months ago. I finally got my computer back and I hooked up my phone to the computer to sync and register my phone. I clicked on restore previous settings and now my phone has all my old stuf.

I just recently got back from Iraq like 4 months ago and I bought the new Iphone 4. I didnt have my computer with me because I was moving to a new duty station. I just got my computer yesterday and I hooked my iphone to the computer. Instead of hit set up as a new phone, I end up clicking on restore previous settings. Now all my new pictures, contact, videos, etc, are gone. I have my phone with old stuff from over a year ago. Is there a way for me to get my current stuff back. Did itunes save it somewhere and I dont know how to get it. Please help me out. Let me know if I can get it back or not.

If you restored your iPhone rather than synching it, you've lost all that data.

I have a friend who just got a cell phone but it's not an iPhone but the person who use to have the number she got had or has an iPhone, I can't message my friend, the messages go out as iMessages and go to the other person. Is there a way to fix this

I have a friend that just got a new cell phone, it's not a iPhone, but the person that use to have the number that she got did! I can't message my friend, they go out as iMessages to the other person! How can I fix this without turning all my iMessages off?

She needs to call the carrier on her old iPhone and have it removed from her account.
Once she does that you will not be able to use iMessage because that only works Apple to Apple.
You will need to use something else like Skype instead.

When I open Muse, I get a message that a new update is available. When I hit install it just closes and nothing happens. Then I got a message I needed Adobe Creative Cloud App to resolve the issue. I downloaded a copy of Creative Cloud desktop but it says that my Muse is up to date. It was last updated in May but you have a new update today and it will not update. I thought maybe I am not suppose to have the Creative Cloud update because all I have is the individual app Muse and the photography program. So I uninstalled the CC desktop. Then when I open Muse it says I need the CC desktop to help with the update. So I get stopped either way. Now I also had a Pre-Release Muse on my computer and I don't know if that complicated things. Please advise.

All future installs/updates of Muse (and most other Adobe apps) are through the Creative Cloud desktop app. Thus you do need to have it installed.
Are you on Windows or Mac? What OS version?

your phone has not been compromised. There have been no viruses, worms or trojan horses ever reported.

I got a new PC. I was able to back up the old one and dowloaded my iTunes library. I keep getting a message that says: This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on this iPod." It asks me to authorize, which I have done 20 ti

My old PC died and I got a new one. I was able to back up the old PC and downloaded my iTunes library on the new PC. I keep getting a message saying: "This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on this iPod. Would you like to authorize this computer for the items purchased from the iTunes store?" I have authorized the new PC, but it continues to ask me over and over, and if I authorize it again, it tells me I already authorized. So frustrating! I deactivated the old PC and activated the new one.
Also, I purchased a song from iTunes store and while it shows in my library on the PC, it won't download to the iPod. Why won't the new song download to the iPod?
Any ideas. suggestions?

Well Authorize the Computer...........

TS1292 hi, I've got itunes music card for my birthday and when I scratch the back to redeem the code everything gone, so no code, what can I do?

hi, I've got itunes music card for my birthday and when I scratched the back to redeem the code everything gone, so no code, what can I do? I've been to tesco to customer service and they told to contact itunes support

These are user-to-user forums. If the page that you posted from doesn't help then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes
