In need to install classic on a g4 running with 10.3.5 instalationdisc from

i just got a dual 533 hz g4 and i want to upgrade it for my studio
i got a powerlogix upgrade {dual 1.2 with L4 cache]
the hardware instalation is no problem but i need to upgrade the boot rom to version4.2.8 which i was told by powerlogix can only be done in the classic enviroment
the g4 came preinstalled with panther 10.3.5 but without classic. i also don't have the original system disc for it
what i do have is the instalation for panther for a g5. i reinstalled panther and it works like a charm. As soon as i want to install the classic option it tells me that the computer model does not support this type of disk [a dvd] and spits it ouT. [i installed a dvd drive]
help :]

The Classic version of OS 9 supplied with G5s cannot boot the computer. New Macs cannot startup in OS 9, they can only use Classic. You need to obtain a bootable OS 9.1 or higher installer CD. You can probably buy one on eBay.
Are you sure the computer requires the firmware update? It may have already been done. Open System Profiler and check the Boot ROM version.
You should not install OS X from a distribution disk that came with another Mac Model. These versions are special builds developed for the Mac model they came with. Furthermore, it violates your license agreement to install the OS on more than one CPU.

Newbie Question: Do mobile apps created in flash builder 4.7 need to install Air in order to run?

Do mobile users using Android/Apple apps created in flash builder 4.7 need to install Air in order to run the apps? Can the apps be ran without Air installation?

I haven't seen this come up, however you might want to give our latest AIR 3.5 build a try (12/11/2012 - AIR 3.5 Runtime and SDK Update). If it still occurs, could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? Please post back with the URL so that others affected can add their comments and votes.

Tried to install Lion. MacBook is running with showing Apples and other signs (questionmarks etc.) without getting finished after hours. What to do?

The download took hours. But it was completed. After that i got a message that the hard-drive should not be ok. But it started updating the operating system.
Yesterday I now installed Snow Leopard again and started the download of Lion again. Worked faster and is installed now. Now i have a problem with the charger or the battery.

Need help installing classic/OS X (10.4) on PowerMac G4

I'm hoping someone can help me, my brother bought himself a new computer and gave me his Powermac G4 http://support.apple.com/specs/powermac/PowerMac_G4_Quicksilver2002.html the M8666LL/A model. Now this computer is a mess so I want to completely reformat the drive and install what I need.
Here's my problem, he cannot find his original disk that came with the computer. I want to install OS X and also have Classic run, I need classic for all the games my kids have that only run with OS 9.
Where should I start, I would like to have 10.4 on, can I install 10.4 and classic with retail copies. This is what I have:
Mac OS X v10.1 Retail (Mac OS 9.2 CD included)
Mac OS X v10.2 Retail
Mac OS X v10.3 Retail
Mac OS X v10.4 Retail
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, got real busy with work I have not had the chance to follow up. I will be trying this over the weekend, so lets see if I got this right.
Boot from the 10.4 Retail disc, reformat the drive, install 10.4 and then I assume I have to boot from the 9.2 disc to install OS 9 and after when I reboot into 10.4 classicc should work?

Need to install Classic on a new iMac.

Since I've read everywhere that I need a machine specific install disc to install OS9 for classic , I'm worried that since there isn't a disc that comes with the new iMac machines that I won't be able to install Classic. Any ideas on how I could get the right disc or a disc that would work. Thanks for the help!

Hi, Darrell -
The original disks that came with the G5 iMac should have the ability to install Classic; it is done via a combination installer, rather than using a separate stand-alone disk.
One or more of these Apple KBase articles (depending on what OS the machine originally shipped with) may help in doing that -
Article #151871 - Mac OS X 10.3: Installing Classic
Article #301408 - Using Restore discs with computers that ship w/ OSX 10.3.7 or later
Article #86775 - Install Mac OS 9 to Use Classic Applications

In 7.0 we have the option to chose the usage types during the installation steps. But in 7.0 with EHP1 SR1, what the right way to install to BW component. Please help us
Regards

Hi,
You will not find BW seperately, You have to proceed with the option 3. SAP application server ABAP.
SAP_BW is the base component of the SAP ABAP system, Later you have to install the BI content.

(Vista64)Do i really need to install QuickTime, Bonjour, etc...with iTunes?

So i was about to download iTunes for Vista 64bit, then i found out that other software comes with it too, such as QuickTime, Bonjour and some kid of Apple's update software, do i really need these extra apps?
I am ok with QuickTime but how about the other two, or is there more then two?
Thanks in advance.

I have deleted bonjour, I believe you only need it if you share devices (libraries etc) but don't know for sure. I have the Update Apple, however, when it tells me there is an update, I go to the apple website, I don't download from this application.
Here is the bonjour page for more information http://www.apple.com/macosx/technology/bonjour.html

Need a 5.1 Sound Card to run with my Logitech Z-5500 speaker sys

Hi everyone,
I would to pick your brains a little please
I have got the Logitech Z-5500 Digital 5. Speaker System.
I would like to purchase a sound card to run with the system but was unsure on what card to get. I obviously need a 5. card, right? So will I need an X-FI or an Audigy? This is where I am getting confused, I got told that the X-FI's are 7. and the Audigy's are 5., I'm not sure if this is true?
Would someone be able to recommend a compatible card please? I have a budget of about ?00 (GBP) or 'about' $90 (USD).
I would like a card that's good for music, games and to watch movies.
Any replies would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advanced,
Tulsi

My fault Catherina, sorry.
Jo6Pak - Thx for your reply and suggestions.
Reihead - Thx again for yours too and your right, those speakers deserve a quality card.
I've got some good news One of my friends has the X-FI Extreme Music card and has let me borrow it in exchange to borrow my PS2 lol just so I can test it out. The good news is that it seems to work!
So far there has been no issues with the card what so ever! I was quite surprised after reading other users comments about the crackling and popping issues with mainly the nForce 4 chipset mobos.
The sound is awesome compared to before Just played Counter Strike for a while to test things out and WOW!!! No issues just quality sound! If I don't get issues with the card, I'll buy it, definitely worth it.
I do have about half of my services disabled and have some personal reg tweaks n things. Maybe that's a benefit. Could also be the x64 bit version of Windows... who knows!
Still early days... I 'could' still get crackling and popping sounds after a while, only time will tell.
I will keep this thread updated with my progress or non progress lol.
Thanks

Help needed to install Classic

I just bought a iMac G3 for my daughter. It came with OS 10.3 but I need to run programs for her that are only compatible to up to OS 9 or OS X Classic. The seller gave me a OS 9.1 disc to install OS 9.1. I did this in 10.3 setting and it says it's installed, but when Classic starts, it prompts a message that says something to the effect that it cannot start classic because the disc is read-only. I started the computer using the OS 9 CD out of the CD player and started the installer, but when it gets to the step to select the designation, the drop down menu shows nothing so I cannot install it. I called the seller and he's not returning calls. Am I totally out of luck? Can anyone help me to get this working? Thanks!

Hi, newton520, and welcome to Apple Discussions. Your inability to select the iMac's internal hard drive as the destination disk for an OS 9.1 installation probably arises because when OS X was installed, the drive was erased and OS 9 disk drivers were not reinstalled afterward, as one of the selectable options in installing OS X.
Start up in OS X and choose "About this Mac" from the Apple menu. Click "More Info" in the Info window to open System Profiler. In System Profiler, click "ATA" under the "Hardware" heading in the left pane. The right pane will display information about your hard drive and optical drive. What is shown next to "OS 9 Drivers" under your hard drive: Yes or No?

How can I install Classic on my iBook running 10.4.11?

I wan to install an older version of OS on new G3 iBook so I can run an older version on Photoshop and Illustrator. How can I accomplish this?

Unfortunately I've realized, after looking carefully at that "ID your iBook" article I linked above, that it doesn't enable you to distinguish reliably between some models on the basis of visual cues alone, and some of the ones that could be very hard to tell apart require different minimum versions of OS 9.
So I'm going to propose an alternate approach to getting Classic onto your iBook — one that probably won't cost you anything. This method will NOT enable you to start the iBook up in OS 9. It will only enable you to use OS 9 in Classic mode, that is, within OS X.
Start up the old desktop G3 and check the version of OS 9 that's installed on it. If it's connected to the internet, download the necessary OS 9 updaters (linked in my first reply above) to the G3 and apply them to its installed OS. (If the desktop G3 doesn't have internet access, download the updaters to the iBook while running in OS X, then copy them to the G3's hard drive using a USB flash drive or a burned CD.) When you've finished upgrading the G3's OS to 9.2.2, copy the System Folder from that computer onto the iBook's hard drive. In the Classic pane of System Preferences, designate that System Folder to be used for the Classic environment. OS X will probably tell you it needs to update some files for Classic operation. OK that, and you should soon be ready to use your old applications in Classic mode within OS X.

I need to install an App that will work with my iOS. How do I get an earlier App that is not now in the App Store?

I have an iPod Touch that can only run iOS 3.1.3. I have had Zinio & PressReader (both free Apps) installed on it for many years, and subscribe to a number of Magazines and Newspapers. I had backed up the iPod in September 2012. Today, I had to restore the iOS from the backup, but saw that Zinio and PressReader had not been installed. I am aware that the iTunes store explains that the latest versions are for iOS 4.3, but I need the latest version that will work with my iPod on iOS 3.1.3.
Does anyone know how I can get hold of the earlier versions of the "ipa" files, short of asking the publishers themselves?
And, should I expect the Publishers to release the appropriate ipa to me?

You aren't being left in any lurch. Your hardware is obsolete, and the software world has moved on. If you have a qualm about the matter then discuss it with the software's developers. Apple is not responsible for software they do not develop. This is technology, and you will just need to get used to it.

In order to stream into a local radio station, I would need to install Silverlight. Is this compatible with MacBook Air?

Is Silverlight compatible with MacBook Air and is it OK to install? I am trying to stream into radio station and cannot, I'm told, w/o installing Silverlight. Please advise. Thank you.

Hey!
Silverlight requirements:
Mac OS X 10.5.7 (Intel-based CPU) or newer and works with browser Firefox 12+ or Safari 4+
Macintosh (Intel-based)
Intel Core Duo 1.83-gigahertz (GHz) or higher processor with 512-MB of RAM
You want to stream into a radio station?
Like broadcasting signals from you mac to a radio station?
Or do you want to lisen to radio on you MacBook Air?
If you want to stream online radio stations on your Macbook Air, it is sevral options.
1) You can download a app from App Store
2) Stream online radio from your web browser ( cud be that some websites tell you that you need Silverlight plugin)
3) You can add an radio station to an iTunes playlist (needs a few steps before you have it in playlist)

I need to install 3.6 Firefox to work with SiteBuilder, how can I get a Download for MAC?

Please send me a link to download the MAC 3.6 version of Firefox. Register.com told me it is the only way to solve a compatibility issue with their ancient SiteBuilder software. I'm stuck until I get it. Thank you

Here [http://ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.6/mac/ Mozilla releases] you can download firefox 3.6. The setup is in your language folder. Before you install this version i must tell you that is dangerous to install a old version of firefox for your security when you surf the net.
