Install openmotif and X11 on imac 11,2?
I have a 3D software package (NX) that I cannot use because it requires the installation of openmotif and x11.
I have a standard imac 11,2 which has X11.
But I can't find or figure out where to get openmotif. Does anybody know anything about this program?

I've not tried it myself.

Installing iCab and Stuffit to iMac OS 8.6 from CD burned on Windows XP
Hi there
I used to have an iMac as you can see from my details but swapped over to the dreaded Windows about 4 years ago now.
My brother was given an old iMac recently, which is running OS 8.6 He couldn't get IE to work as the version was too old, so he couldn't get on the net to download iCab, which I suggested (used to have it on the iMac I had). So, I downloaded iCab and Stuffit for OS 8.6 from the net onto my Windows XP laptop and then burned a cd for him. Trouble is, my brother says the cd won't work on his iMac. He said it makes a whirring sound like it's trying to read it but then stops and nothing happens.
I said I didn't think it was a compatibility problem between Windows and Mac, as the files dowloaded were Mac files.
Any help would be appreciated. It's amazing how quickly I've forgotten how to do things on the Mac but I still feel loyal to Macs rather than Windows!
Thanks in advance.

The original browser was an old version of IE and my brother couldn't get onto the net at all with it.
Was it possibly Internet Explorer 4.01 (in an Internet folder)? Usually, nearly all browsers will work to a certain extent, but an old version may prevent you from opening many web pages and from using some functions. An Internet service provider may require proxy data (under the web browser preferences).
an error message coming up that Microsoft no longer supports that version and to download the latest version
That almost sounds like a message appearing once you actually are on the Internet.
so, that puts paid to the e-mail idea as well, as he can't get a connection at all.
A browser would, of course, be needed for web mail. However, a separate email application (e.g., Eudora or Outlook Express) should be fine, as long as the Internet connection as such is working.
The connection is a dial-up one.
For the Internet connection, the things to check would be that the TCP/IP control panel has been set to connect via PPP and that everything in the Modem and Remote Access control panels is OK (the ISP should be able to help with details).
I did check the cd after I'd burned it to make sure the programs were on it
As indicated earlier, that CD should (normally) be readable in an iMac.
Thanks for the info about the extensions.
The extensions are important. Otherwise, the iMac may not properly show discs and/or contained files.

I have an imac 20 in. The old hard drive crapped out on me. i put a new harddrive in and am now trying to install linux. But the imac doesnt recognise any keyboards
Without a bootable backup/clone or a Time Machine backup of your previous Snow Leopard installation or a saved copy of Lion's install app, you'll have to upgrade your Leopard volume to Snow Leopard (10.6.6+) so you can waste another hour or more DLing the Lion thing again.

Hi
I am planning to install window 7 on my imac ( version - ox mountaion loin - 10.8.2, purchase this year in may 2012) but before installing the same pls let me know what i would required means - is there required any special software or hardware.... or is there any different cd for mac windows.....
Thanks,
Punit GargYou require Windows 7.
Windows 7 is the same and will run the same as it would on a Windows computer. All programs that run on a windows computer will run on your Windows once installed. You will need anti virus software for your Windows partition. Microsoft Security Essentials is free and it works well.
Read the help files before installing http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/. -
I just installed iLife on my new iMac 10.8.2 version and now I can't open my iPhoto app. It says it is damaged or incomplete. What can I do to get it back along with all of my picutures? I was told by an Apple employee at my one to one training that it was OK to install iLife to get the iDVD that I wanted. Help!
I have installed iLife a few times and because of photostream, the version on the disc must be updated. Software update usually takes care of it. It sounds like you installed an old version over a new version. I've not tried that.
You have a late 2012 machine, if you open the Mac app store from the dock, you should be able to go to the purchased tab and download/install the right version of iphoto. Honestly, you should not have used that disc on this new of mac or at least only installed iDVD & iWeb but not garageband, iphoto, and iMovie.
If the Mac App Store shows iphoto as installed already, drag the app from your applications folder to the trash and reinstall it again from the Mac App Store. That is the version you need. You may find garageband and imovie have similar problems.
good luck.
PS. your photos are in your photo folder in your home folder. don't touch those, I'm talking about the app "iphoto" in the applications folder. -
I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have just bought Apple iLife 11 on dvd so that I can install iWeb and iDVD, as macs no longer ship with these apps. When I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate.
Next problem is that when moving through the installer and get to custom install, as I only want to install iDVD and iWeb, I am presented with the option to install iDVD, Sounds & Jingles and iWeb, but not sure what is going on with the other 3 options iLife Support etc, they seem to be greyed out but still look like they may install over the top of the newer versions already on my imac. Is it ok for me to just go ahead and hit install? Or do I have a problem?Yep, just install iDVD (plus sounds and jingles) and iWeb if you want it (but note that iWeb apparently won't work if you upgrade to Mountain Lion).
Then use Software Update to get any late iDVD updates. -

I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets on the network have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer. Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!

I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go. The printer does'nt show up. I'm fairly new to the Mac, after switching from windows. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
Hold down the option key and select
▹ System Information...
from the menu bar. In the window that opens, select
Hardware ▹ USB
from the list on the left. On the right you should now see a list of all connected USB devices, as well as some built-in components. Is the device shown? -
Unable to install Netgear XE102 on my iMac. Checked Netgear website and could not find a setup.exe file for Mac.
That means either no software needs to be installed on a Mac or the product is incompatible with Macs. Contact NetGear tech support for help.

Intel iMac running 10.5.8. Belonged to a relative who has passed away. I want to wipe all data and give the iMac to my grandson. I have no install discs. How do I proceed?
Contact Apple (call AppleCare) and for a nominal fee the discs will be replaced. You can do that or purchase Snow Leopard (still availble from Apple for $20) and do an erase and install of OS X making the machine like a new machine.

What I am wondering is if I can install Windows 7 on my iMac 2014 without using BCA to install drivers and using the manual download Support software without bricking my system. The issue is that I recently moved into the country without a reliable data connection, so I'd like to download all the drivers from when I'm in town generally. Any info is appreciated.

Hello,
I'm trying to purchase inexpensive computers for my classroom. One of the computers I'm looking at is the new $200 HP Stream 11. My school's IT department said it might be difficult to install the district's copy of Windows 7 on these computers if I purchase them. Does anyone know if it's actually possible to uninstall Windows 8.1 and install Windows 7 using an external USB or external CD Rom Drive? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The District is right to say what they told you they can't install Disctrict Windows 7 on your computer because they have a license agreements with MS and doing so will violate their Terms of Agreement. And you shouldn't be asking something like that to start with. If that laptop can't install Windows 7 it then your stuck with WIndows 8 unless HP has downgrade to go back to Windows 7 on it otherwise if none exist you will not get any drivers or support for it. You best luck is to find a used Windows 7 laptop and order the HP recovery media for it and wipe it clean to factory install and register it to you and that will give you a Windows 7 maching to start with.

How do I install LION and partition SL 10.6.8 run on same imac?
Hello If one could tell me step by step instructions:
I would like to install LION ( because icloud), but can I install LION and partition the OS so that my imac can run both SL 10.6.8 and LION?
SL 10.6.8 still runs some applications that LION will never be able to run.
So I really need LION installed,but also have SL 10.6.8 partitioned so I can run imovie HD6 with plug ins with SL 10.6.8.
Please if this can be done so I can run Lion and SL 10.6.8 on same computer
thank you so much in advance
please advise
scottWow, thank you Niel. I have looked on this site and have found many different ways listed on partitioning and using 2 OS on a computer. But there steps seemed very long and tedious- but of course if that is what is needed then i would do it that way. Again i was seeing a lot of different ways. But yours seemed direct.
I went thru the steps up until using the thumb drive for LION to install. I went in to disk utilities, i selected mydrive, clicked on the partition tab, and then i saw i had 96.7 GB available--without changing SL10.6.8 HD size.
it looks like you can drag and increase/decrease the partitions with the mouse control.
I really need LION for icloud, and if so all other applications EXCEPT imovieHD6
So i need to run SL for imovieHD6 the other applications like word, adobe creative suite, excel, etc ican use LION.
do you recommend having the partitions equal in GB?
I have a 250gb hard drive
should I split the partitions evenly between the two OS?
or should one OS get more GB than another? -
I have a new mac mini I5 - I cannot find and copy Maverick onto a flash so that I can install on the other 7 iMacs - don't want to download from App store to each machine - files too big
Please assistYou need to download it on one of the iMacs via App store but not install since after it installs the installation download gets deleted.
After it is downloaded you can copy to a USB device. You can also make a bootable USB install device by:

This is really just a philosophical question. The language allows a literal to be used to initilaize an array like this int[] arr = {1,2,3,4}but later in the code you cannot write arr = {4,5,6,7};I have always wondered why. Anyone got an insight?
