Install issue ARD on imac intel duo G5

On installing Remote Desktop Administrator then the update to 2.2, I get the following error:
"The Remote Desktop Administrator software failed to start due to an unexpected error.
The Remote Desktop software may not be installed correctlyor the computer may require a restart."
I've run it just fine on an older 10.4.5 G3 533 mhz dual and never had an issue. Is there some update the intel duo imac needs? It's 2.0 ghz. I've restarted, cold-booted several times as well as restarted, resinstalled, removed the .pref file and reinstalled all to no avail. If anyone can make any suggestions I appreciate it.

ARD 2.2 will not work Intel Macs without modifying items in the System folder.
Even then it will not be supported by Apple, so use at your own risk.
Simply do the following:
Ensure ARDAgent.app is not running (make sure that Remote Desktop is disabled in System Preferences -> Sharing)
Then go to System --> Library --> CoreServices --> RemoteManagement in the Finder, and Get Info on ARDAgent.app. Check "Open using Rosetta".

Crashing Imac intel duo 2.0. with deep buzzer sound

I've been working on a imac intel duo 2.0 gig (4 gigs ram, 250 hd) and It's been driving me crazy as it crashes between 2 and 5 times a day. I'm doing constant photo shooting and processing from capture pro to photoshop, but the files are all pretty small- like 8-12 megs each, and I have to say that I've used these programs for years and found them to be extremely stable. There is still like more than half of the hard drive available for files, and I try to keep it that way by pulling old files off it to an external drive.
Often the machine will crash while in a finder type function often early in the day, before I've even opened any photo files or apps. Usually it just freezes. Rarely it will have a screen black out, and when that happens, I hear the deep buzzing sound that must signify something- I don't know what.
I've tried running the apple disc utility, and repairing the permissiions from there, but it hasn't really helped. I've disconnected and reconnected the camera, the external hard drive, my Wacom tablet, nothing really helps. Now that I think of it, I haven't replaced the mouse- could that possibly be the cause?
Oh well, any wisdom on this topic would be appreciated, especially what is that loud buzzer trying to tell me.
Thanks-TD

You are right it's not an available space issue so now I'm beginning to agree with Allan. If you don't know how to run AHT, please click the Hardware Test link. Run it in Extended Mode too, not using Extended Model does not test very thoroughly. If it reports back with no errors run AHT 2-3x in Extended Mode to be sure. This test is time consuming so start it and come back in about 40 - 60 minutes. If it reports errors then you can either Google them or post them here and someone will try to interpret them. However whatever the error is you should write it down and bring the machine in for service at your local Apple Store or AASP.

Using iMac Intel Duo/Tiger to burn bootable ISO images for another OS?

Is there a third-party "toaster" software package that will allow me to burn CentOS or Ubuntu Linux ISO images obtained from the Internet to my SuperDrive?

Is there a virtual pc or Windows emulator for iMac intel duo?

Hi there,
I just got a new iMac intel duo last week and its fantastic. Unfornatuly I need to run a stock market program that only runs on windows...
This is the only program that i need to run on the windows platform.
I was told to get the intel duo as it was the way things were going and that I may have to wait for the software side of things to catch up.
I currently have a workaround that is painfull, but I would like to have it all on the one machine...
Is there a virtual pc version for the iMac intel duo or are there other emulators I could use??
Desparate..

Sharing hard drive with windows xp on imac intel duo core

Hi,
I was wondering whether I could give over anymore of the hard disk on my imac intel duo core to Windows xp? If so, how would I go about doing that?
Thanks in advance

At this point I think that you would need to use Boot Camp to remove the current partition and then make a bigger one and reinstall Windows.
Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows.
The Forum is at the bottom of the main Apple Discussions page under Windows Compatible Technology.

ILife 05 on the iMac Intel Duo 2GB?

Can iLife 05 be used with OS 10.4.9 on the iMac Intel Duo 2GB?

Hadn't thought about that. Good thing you jumped in.

Is the iMac intel duo plug and play?

I am getting a iMac intel duo for christmas and this will be my first mac. Does it recognise new hardware like a usb memory stick or do you have to manually detect it?

I don't think that I would trust that idea. It would be safer and save you a world of hurt from finding out the hard way to eject anything that appears with an icon on the Mac desktop, especially if that icon is accompanied with the eject arrow icon in the left-side panel of a Finder window. There are plenty of folks who have screwed up Firewire/USB devices by just at will disconnecting them. USB key drives, in my experience, are pretty much nonrecoverable if you fry them.

I have installed Lion on an iMac Core duo by mistake - how do I rectify..?

I have installed Lion on an iMac Core Duo, via firewire from an iMac i7.
The Core Duo now goes to grey screen, folder with "?", then the "prohibited" sign for a 30 secs and then turns off,
(I now realise Lion is 64bit and the core duo only supports 32bit...).
The core duo will chime but will not boot off the original install disk or mount as a fire wire target disk.
How do I wipe Lion and reinstall Leopard...?

Sounds like hardware error.
Maybe the target-mode did something bad to the EFI, like fed it 210 proof "Everclear" ...
Try a diferent USB keyboard ...
Last resort for me before Genius Bar is either SMC Reset (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964) and/or PRAM reset (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mh26871.html).
I am out of ideas if the resets cannot bring back "C" boot.

Unable to install on 2006 model iMac Intel Model

I recently purchased a Macbook which came with snow leopard installer DVD.
I also have a iMac Intel Model(2006) which is currently on Tiger 10.4.* (2GB RAM)
When I tried to install snow leopard from the Macbook DVD on the iMAC, I got an option to select the language and then encountered error message which said " The installation cannot be done on this device"
I backed up the data and formatted using disk utility and then tried to install again from the Snow Leopard DVD which failed with the same error message.
Can you please advise if I can use the MacBook installer on iMac.

Any idea if the other DVD which came with the MacBook 'Applications Install DVD' would work .
It will not work. Even if you try to use the installers hidden on the disc for the apps it contains, you will get a message telling you that you cannot run them directly & instead must install them from Disc 1.
This is because those apps are licensed for use *only with the Mac they came with* & Apple has no interest in helping users steal the use of its software without paying for it.
Please read the licensing agreement that came with the new Mac. You own the Mac but Apple owns the software & only grants you a license to use it in specific ways.

Does anybody how how to install a software to imac (intel), does anybody how how to install a software to imac (intel)

does anybody know how to install a new software to imac (intel)?
I have tried and is doesnt' automatically load up when a program is placed in the drive.... its like it isn't reading it or something

In addition to stedman's, you really should not need any software for your camcorder. What is it supposed to do? You already have software on your Mac to work with video: iPhoto and iMovie.
Edit: take a look at this article:

Poor Internet Performance on my new iMac Intel Duo

Hi,
Just purchased a new iMac Intel 20" intel dual-core. My internet performance stinks. I have a Windows laptop sitting right next to it, plugged into the same ethernet switch, and it gets twice the performance of the Mac. I measured this using the Verizon Fios speed test. Additionally, web-pages load noticeably faster on the windows machine than on the Mac.
I have the problem whether I'm using Firefox, Safari or Internet explorer.
I have both machines plugged into a 100BaseT ethernet switch.
I'm very frustrated, and tempted to return the blasted thing.
Any ideas, RTFM's or configuration options will be appreciated.

Me too MIchael. My PC (right next to my iMac Intel) is getting 10 meg dl speed; mac only gets 5 (at best).
Direct connect from cable modem to Mac yields 7 or 8 , direct connect from cable modem to PC yields 10 megs.
PC gets 10 dl speed even thru a router; Mac can't get past the 5 mark.
I'd really like to know what's up with this.
ISP and Router Manufacturer are no help.
Any ideas guys?

Help! imac Intel duo core crashes/ model 6,1/10.4.11 must restart each time

The Imac crashes each time and I must restart it almost every hour! After restart I need to cool the machine otherwise I need to restart more then 5 times
before it starts running again. When I work with pictures there are horizontal stripes on the screen and see some delay in the finder screen. It looks like a video error.
My question is if this is a hardware problem or an OSX system problem? If I want to install Panther should this work in combination with this machine?
Hopefully somebody can help!

If you say cooling helps then that's likely a hardware problem. Maybe even something as simple as too many dust bunnies inside. You'd need to ask on the iMac forum on how to clean inside. Overheating can cause various problems, including video. I guess it could be software, but do you hear the fans racing? I don't know about iMacs but other models will automatically turn fans on at high speed to prevent overheating should the software controlling the fans not run.
Panther? On an Intel Mac? No way. You did mean OSX 10.3 didn't you? 10.6 is Snow Leopard and most people with your machine want to go that direction (or even to Lion 10.7).

How do I install Windows on my iMac (intel based) computer

Hi, I have all the software, Windows xp, and the parallels supporting software. The question is how do I load it onto my computer?

Just a friendly suggestion: update your sig - it is confusing to see the G5 iMac listed there while you are asking a question about the Intel iMac.
In your Utility Folder there's a BootCamp Assistant program. Start it up and make sure your printer has a nice stack of paper - about 25 pages if I recall properly. At the first screen once the program is running you'll have to options: Print Instructions & Proceed with the Installation. Select print and if your printer is slow, go get a cup of coffee.
The highlights: make sure you have a valid copy of XP (at least SP2) or Vista and have your Mac OS installation disk handy, it has files you'll need once Windows has finished installing. The first step is to partition the drive - unless your computer is brand new, I recommend that before partitioning you start up with your Mac installer disk, run Disk Utilities, and repair the drive. When BootCamp Assistant partitions your drive you have to decide how much space to give it - 20GB to 40GB should be plenty unless you are going to use Windows for lots of games. Once the partitioning is finished, pop in the Windows installer and click on the install Windows button that BootCamp Assistant gives you. Now you are in Windows land and after you have entered your Windows Account name and gotten to the Windows desktop, eject the Windows disc, pop in the Mac installer, and let it install the BootCamp drivers. And finally, while running Windows, visit the Apple Support site and download the BootCamp 2.1 upgrade. There are several different versions depending on which version of Windows you are running.

Tiger to Snow Leopard for my '06 iMac Intel duo

I've read that my iMac will run up to 10.6.8 but not beyond, once there it cannot boot in 64 bit mode nor does it support Open CL, what does that mean?

Hi Robert
I have updated my Jan 2006 1.83GHz Core Duo w/2GB of RAM to both Leopard and then onto Snow Leopard as the releases rolled out. I find that for the everyday minimal tasks like Safari, iTunes, iPhoto, etc. there is very little difference between using it and the new faster machines. I also expect that when I do decide to move on to the next maching, that the wife and/or grandkids will contuinue using it for years.
So on that note: Yes upgrading the RAM in your Early 2006 2.0GHz Core Duo with a couple of matching 1GB modules will definitly improve it's preformance.
