IMac 20" 2 GHz - Is it compatible with Panther?

We recently purchased a couple of new iMac G5 2GHz machines to ad to our army of iMacs, but when we install the image we have for our users, the fans run at full pelt.
Apparently (according to our suppliers) the fan settings are contained within Tiger, but I was wondering is there anyway to run Panther on these machines without the fans running so loud.
Thanks

Those iMacs shipped with Tiger. Therefore Tiger is the earliest OS that is supported on those iMacs. Running anything earlier (Panther, etc.) can damage those iMacs.

Why i can't run fcpx on iMac 3.06 Ghz core 2 duo with 16Gb ram?

I Can't run FCPX on my iMac.
It's working in theory, but it's stopping playback even without any effect, (video frames were dropped during playback - message), i can't preview any effect, as loading preview taking for ever.
I recently upgrade RAM from 4Gb to 16Gb 1067 Mhz DDr3, and I thought that's make a difference but not.
I have latest Lion 10.8.1 update. FCPX ver 10.0.5.
I try to work on 1080 video files located on main HDD , not external. they are from digital camera, 1920 x 1080, 1080p and codecs H264 linear PCM, 29.97 fps stereo.
Any suggestion?

You have loads of power so something is not OK.
Is your internal HD more than 80% full?
For a start trash your preferences using http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
Incidentally if you are using 50p/60p footage, that could be the problem especially on an internal HD.
You should always transcode 50p/60p AVCHD to ProRes 422.
Do that and I am sure you will see an improvement.

Is i mac OS 10.5.8 compatible with hp office jet pro 8615e printer

can an imac osx 10.5.8 be compatible with an hpofficejet pro 8615 e printer?

Hi @dennisbriggs
I understand you have 10.5 and are trying to use the HP Officejet 8615 . The only suggestion I can make will not likely be ideal, but you could email anything you want to print from the computer to the printer.
Each HP ePrint-enabled printer, such as the 8615 , has its own unique email address. After you enable HP ePrint on your HP ePrint-enabled printer, you can print from your mobile or network-connected device by sending an email to your HP printer's email address. With HP ePrint, you can print from anywhere, at any time. If you can send an email, you can use HP ePrint.
This blurb, and more information, can be found in the following HP Document, ePrint Product Specifications.
As mentioned. This is likely not ideal, it really depends on how much printing you plan to do. If this is practical for you as a work around then mission accomplished, we found a solution, if not.... The only other options would be to consider taking the printer back and getting a different model that is compatible with 10.5, or upgrading the OS if that Mac can allow for an upgrade to 10.6
I know you'd rather not upgrade, but you might consider treating yourself, there are some nice new shiney Macs available.
What ever you decide, if you would like additional assistance, feel free to post back as I am happy to help.
I hope my recommendations resolve your inquiry.

Illustrator CS compatible with OS Mavericks??

My old computer finally died, and so I just bought a new iMac with OSX Mavericks... I am wondering if my old Illustrator CS can be installed
into my new iMac and if it would be compatible with OSX Mavericks? (I successfuly reinstalled my Photoshop CS4 and it is compatible with OSX Mavericks, but I am skeptical that such an old version of Illustrator will also install successfully)

Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2 or older products, Acrobat 7
That aside current versions of OSX don't support any PPC code, not even in emulation, so it would be technically totally pointless to even try and install it.

According to the Lion webpage, you would need to add more RAM to your computer and check to make sure you have about 7GB of free hard drive space.

Running Mavericks on an iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, I've been trying to install Adobe CS3. All components install except InDesign. Is this an installation disk problem or is it not compatible with the OS?

Running Mavericks on an iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, I've been trying to install Adobe CS3 Design Premium. All components install except InDesign. Is this an installation disk problem, or is there a compatibility problem with the OS?

I fear that you are trying to download OLDER Software on a newer Operating Sysytem Meaning that you need to Install the Latest Version of Adobe on the Newer Operating System for it to work Properly. Be sure to always check the minimum System Requirements.

Is Windows 7 64-bit Compatible with This iMac late 2013 ?

Is Windows 7 64-bit compatible with this computer?
Hardware and software:
• Late 2013 iMac 27", 3.5 GHz I7, 32 GB memory, 1 TB hard drive Flash
* 4GB Graphic Card
• Mac OS 10.9.1
• USB thumb drive 2.0 16GB
• Boot Camp Assistant 5.1.0
• Windows 7 64-bit install disk iso image
Install steps:
1. Use Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 7 install (from iso image) and Apple Support Software (creates WININSTALL USB drive)
2. Use Boot Camp Assistant to create Equal partition (500GB) on iMac internal drive and start Windows install
3. Complete initial install steps until given option to select install partition
4. Select 500 GB partition. Error message that partition is not formatted correctly. Use Advance Options to format (presumably to NTFS)
5. Select 500 GB partition again and click "Next"
6. Get error message "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information."
7. Install quits at this point
I'm wondering if Windows 7 and/or Boot Camp is compatible with this iMac. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Many thanks.
Joe

Hi, Indeed. I am selecting the Bootcamp partition, and If I do Format, It informs me that all we be deleted, ok fair enough. then I can click the NEXT button, but I got then a msg stating :
Setup was u nable to create a new system partion or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup Log Files for more informations.
I have not more option here, I can delete, then create a new one with same size then format again, but same message at the end. this is my issue.
A guy done a Youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD7dbSl9-b8
I am all ok up to 5min 50 on the video. Then My issue is what he has....
However, when he format the partition he does not have my error msg stating Setup was unable to create. etc...
This is my issue.

Illustrator CC isn't compatible with my 2011 imac

I tried downloading illustrator CC tonight, only to find out it's not compatible with my imac. I'm wondering if I have to purchase a new computer. Here are my specs:
21.5-inch, Mid 2011
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB
Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
I currently own Cs6 and that's running fine. Does CC require more GHZ or memory in order to be compatible? I'm not sure what to do in this situation..

Hi,
What exact is the issue ?
1) You are not able to download it through Adobe Creative Cloud application ?
2) AI CC is installed on your system but it displays a warning dialog of compatabilty when launched ?
If 2nd is the case then can you share the screen shot of the dialog with us.
With Best Regards,
Raghuveer

Is my Imac compatible with Snow Leopard?

Hi, I have been reading through the posts trying to find a solution for the strange things my computer is doing (or rather, NOT doing) since I installed Snow Leopard.
I read that SL is not compatible with all machines... Could anyone tell me if my machine DOES qualify? Could an "incompatability" be the source of my computer strangeness?
When I click on "About this Mac" I am told I have "Mac OS X Version 10.6" (but it does not specify which version of 10.6). Is that normal?
My Hardware Overview is :
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac6,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2,16 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 4 GB

SMC Version (system): 1.10f3
Hardware UUID: 00000000-0000-1000-8000-0017F2C4F6F8
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INPUT!!!

Could an "incompatability" be the source of my computer strangeness?
Most definitely. Quite a few applications & other kinds of software are compatible with one version of an OS but not with the next. Without a clue about what kind of "strangeness" you are experiencing, it is hard to make specific recommendations, but you should make sure everything you have installed that did not come from Apple is the most up-to-date version offered & known to be compatible with Snow Leopard.

No, it's not compatible with Mountain Lion. See:
Macs that will support OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion
As usual, the newer the Mac the better:
MacBook Pro – 13″ from mid 2009 or later, 15″ from late 2007 and newer, 17″ from late 2007 and newer
MacBook Air – late 2008 and newer
iMac – models from mid 2007 and newer
MacBook – 13″ aluminum from 2008, 13″ from 2009 and newer
Mac Mini – early 2009 and newer
Mac Pro – early 2008 models and newer
XServe – early 2009 models and newer
Macs that are NOT expected to support OS X Mountain Lion
Older Macs and those with weaker GPU’s will likely be left behind:
Anything with an Intel GMA 950 or x3100 integrated graphics card
Anything with an ATI Radeon X1600
MacBook models released prior to 2008
Mac Mini released prior to 2007
iMac models released prior to 2007

Is iLife '05 iMac compatible with iLife '05 eMac?

I accidentally deleted iDVD and need to reinstall it except my disk is lost. I could get the iLife '05 from the iMac but don't know if it will work on the eMac.
Please someone help me before my life ends....
Thanks

"The eMac was purchased in 2005. When we tried to install iLife '05 on it, it said "not compatible with this system".
The eMac has OS9 not OSX, we tried upgrading but that was not successful.
Would the OS be a big part in not allowing the install?
What sorts of trouble shooting can I do to get iLife '05 to install on the eMac? The program iLife '05 is originally from an iMac but both are PowerPC. I'm thinking the eMac just doesn't have enough memory to support it. It has 1 GB Ram and 1.44 Ghz processor but NOT intel core duo.
Not that that should matter but I'm at a loss for ideas.
iLife requires OS X. It will not run under OS 9.

IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open. So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

Maybe. See:
Reverting to previous version of Numbers

I bought a new imac running Loin and Office 2011. The server we use to access emails runs exchange 2003 and my IT person says the imac is not compatible with the server. The server does not want to let me access using any email software.

I bought a new imac running Loin with Office 2011. I am the only mac in the office and the Server we use to access emails runs exchange 2003 and my IT person says the imac is not compatible with the server. The server does not want to let me access using any email software other than webmail access through our website. It looks as though 2011 is not compatible with 2003 per some searches online, but what are some options I have to gain full access again? I purchased parallels in hopes that this my help and I am able to use remote desktop connection to log on to server but can not drag and drop files I need. There is a shared drive on that Server we all use to exchange files.
The two main issues are gaining access to my email again and ability to drag and drop files from mac to pc. I hope this is enough info to get some solutions.
PS - IT person says my iMac's IP is what his server does not understand so that is why I can not login.

Office 2011 is not compatbile with Exchange 2003.
I suggest you post further Office related questions on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac software:
