Installation and performance wonderful!

Just completed installation and testing of Aperture 3. 20K images, mostly RAW from Canon 40D and 5DM2 (11 to 23 MB RAW files), around 300GB.
Ran Consistency Check and then Rebuild on Aperture 2 libraries before starting move to Aperture 3.
Backed up Aperture 2 Libraries on several hard drives (belt and suspenders).
Installed from Ap 3 disk.
Did software updates re slideshows and new RAW update.
Turned off Faces (can run this later).
Did not reprocess files, just the update. I will reprocess as needed, when I want to use new tools on old files.
Update on both Mac Pro (2006, 2.66GHZ, 7GB ram) and MacBook Pro (2008, 2.5 GHZ, 4 GB ram). No other application slowed down at all during update. Update took about two hours on each machine.
Library and adjustments are very snappy.
Printing went exceedingly well, after re-entering my presets.
Image Browser shows Aperture library.
Not a single problem so far. I've spent almost a week reading the posts here and I've seen all the problems some people have had.
In my view, a very, very impressive new version.

I know it really probably will not help but I submitted a bug report.
"17-Feb-2010 12:16 PM Brian Hursey:
Summary:
Major issue with Aperture 3 when converting A2 library's and projects to A3.
Steps to Reproduce:
Senerio 1. Open an existing aperture library. It tells you you will need to convert the library conversion only gets to about 5%.
Senerio 2. Importing and not converting an existing A2 library into a A3 library.
Senerio 3. Reprocessing masters on a imported A2 project.
Expected Results:
Conversion, importing processing needs to keep from locking up the system and making it unusable.
Actual Results:
Uses all systems resources and creates a 43+ gig swap file. Used 100% of both cores of my 2.0 ghz 2009 mac mini, and used all of the ram.
Regression:
System: Spring 2009 Mac mini. 2.0 ghz core duo, 2 gigs of DDR3 ram, Snow Leopard 10.6.2 , Aperture 3.
Notes:
Possible work a rounds 32bit mode will test tonight. "

  • Two independent installation and performance issue

    Hi,
    We have installed two independent DBs (11gr2 enterprise 64 bit)on a large box with 80 cores 256GB RAM.
    The data files for both DBs are on ram. The objective is to find if we can double perf number with two instances.
    What we see is that when both instances are run the "log file sync" event takes 5 times more time (there are other wait events also go up).
    db2: (when db2 running alone)
    log file sync 202,445 21 0 .9 Commit
    db2: (when db1 & db2 running together)
    log file sync 267,512 97 0 4.5 Commit
    The CPU load average -1 comes down from
    14.1 to 1.68 though CPU utilization jumps from 41% to 82%.
    There are two independent installations. We are trying to find out how one instance of DB can affect other (make other wait more), unless there is an underlying issue in the common resource used by both.
    The SGAs should be allocated and accessed by DBs separately, right?
    ipcs -m shows:

    I am not very familiar oracle and do not know how to find memory layout of oracle DB. Any help/pointer is appreciated.
    What is the best way to find out that two DBs do not share the same SGA/resources?
    The two DBS have everything different except ora inventory.

    Without a lot more information there really isn't much one can say other than that, properly installed, the two should be completely independent of each other.
    That said it seems that is not the case which takes us back to what none of us out here can know ... what isn't as you assume it should be.
    What is most confusing to me is this statement:
    The data files for both DBs are on ram. The objective is to find if we can double perf number with two instances.I have no idea what either sentence is intended to mean. The first because datafiles are not "on RAM" and the second because two instances will never double anything other than resource utilization and overhead.

  • Can I cancel installation and start it again later without having to pay again?

    I just purchased OS X Lion and I realised that my internet limit is fully used. I paused the installation and now wondering if I can cancel it at all and start it later again without paying for it again.

    No need to cancel, just "resume" when it's convenient.

    FYI... Lion is approximately a 4GB file. Even with high speed internet access it can take about 45 minutes to download.

  • My friend have new Macbook Air with OSX Mavericks and I have Macbook Pro with OSX Mountain Lion, Can I create a bootable maverick in pendrive from macbook air and perform a clean installation/update on my macbook pro with osx mountain lion?

    I have late 2012 edition Macbook Pro, I have a internet connection with does not run smoothly It gets disconnected and reconnects Thus I failed everytime when I update my OSX Mountain Lion to Mavericks in App Store. My friend just bought 2013 end Macbook Air whicch have OSX Mavericks pre installed.
    I was hoping if I can create a OS X version in pendrive from his laptop and use that to install and thuss also update OS on my Mountain Lion.
    Kindly explain me in detail how to perform this.
    I have already taken back up of all files and I am ready to total clean my laptop.
    And I want to update to Maverick so I can thus further update to upcoming OS X Yosemite.

    The Mavericks on the Air is probably machine specific since it came pre-installed, so it wouldn't work on your computer. See if your friend will let you access the App Store, where you can sign in using your Apple ID and download the installer. You can use this free program to copy the installer and update your computer.

  • Satellite U840W PSU5XA - Win 8.1 installation and effective SSD usage

    Hello.
    Im hoping for a solution to two issues.
    The second I suspect is caused by the first.
    Satellite U840W PSU5XA-001006
    Started to receive BSOD with various faults.
    Most persistant was IRQ LESS or not EQUAL- iaStorAV.sys
    Many hours of searching and I cannot locate a solution nor post that actually has the "AV" extension on on iaStore.sys.....
    So, i factory resetted, and various other issues (BSOD's) persisted.
    So, I Clean installed Windows 8.1 straight over everything and deleted all previous files.
    I noticed the system was not running any factory TOSHIBA Branded utilities etc. and seemed to be a lot slower. I suspected that this was caused due to the 32GB SSD used for Cache had now seemingly been bi-passed and everything was now strictly running off the 500GB HDD. I dont recall BSOD's but the system was significantly slower on boot and performance.
    Sooooo, (SIGH), I again reset back to factory settings and this gave me back TOSHIBA branded utilities such as service station and the like.
    HOWEVER, The BSOD's remained and once upgrading to windows 8.1 KEEPING files and settings, the iaStorAV.sys error has returned (specifically when closing lid into sleep mode) forcing CRITICAL error and forcing system into reboot instead of awakening from sleep.
    Note: Windows is a legit MS copy so that isnt the issue either. Even stranger is that the 8.1 instal had been running at least 8 months no issue prior to sudden BSOD Page file and iaStorAV errors. Readings and posts have me believing MS Updates to bee the culprit here for the beginning of these issues.
    I read a similar post regarding enabling RAID CACHE PRIOR to Windows 8.1 install. My intuition tells me that these two may just be related. i.e. If windows has not installed RAID CACHE properly, then CACHE isnt being strored correctly and causing BSOD's. Im a newbie at this stuff, so be patient.....
    What I really want to know is, How can I now Factory Reset Windows 8, making positive the 32GB is being used as CACHE and assisting fastboot etc, then safely upgrade to Windows 8.1?
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    THINGS ALSO ATTEMPTED: IRST and RAID re-Install, Memory Diagnostic (Passed), BIOS Upgrade to 6.70, Rapid Storage Drivers re-installed
    Thanks ahead of time,
    Mr Frustrated............

    Ok, well, its been a while and no-one had really come up with a solid solution. But thank you JakieStewart for the RST information.
    Note: Updating RST drivers alone, failed....
    However, I have been able to work around the issue in a way:
    I have lost the ability to use the SSD as a cache, which really annoys me, as all the reboots, and suggestions i have read, re-installs etc proved flawed in some way or another.
    So, I have instead chosen to clean install windows 8.1 then followed a post relating to Diskpart and setting SSD hibernation partition.
    A link to consider would be http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide.pdf
    However i followed a somewhat abbreviated version.
    Conclusion:
    1. Now I can close the lid on my U840W (INTO SLEEP or HIBERNATION Mode and not get a "System Thread Exception iaStorAV.sys error because I have 1. Reluctantly Clean Installed Windows 8.1 over factory image and 2. now created a >Hibernation Partition< on the SSD
    Even though SSD Cache may no longer be available, creating this Hibernation Partition assists with Rapid START Technology and the associated iaStorAV.sys type errors
    You can find your Toshiba Rapid Store Technology Drivers for your model here:
    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?keyword=Intel%C2%AE+Rapid+Storage+Technolog y+%28Intel%C2%AE+RST%29
    2. I no longer have the option to use the SSD as a cache, but overall my system runs a lot better now
    3. The SSD is not visible in explorer (which it never was under the original settings anyway)
    3. Downside: I can no longer boot or reset back to original Toshiba factory settings and can only recover from the new recovery disk (USB) i have made.
    I have now also downloaded and stored on a USB all the original TOSHIBA U840W Drivers from http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/ultrabook/u840w/psu5xa-001006/download?os=30
    If like me, you clean install windows 8.1 I highly suggest getting your drivers downloaded locally so that you don't have to keep going back to Toshiba or Intel unless updates are required.
    4. Note: Make note to set the BIOS Hibernation mode to "Immediately" if you choose to go this route as per the instructions on the Intel Link
    5. Change "Toshiba Power Options" to make sure that closing Lid send laptop into Sleep or Hibernation (Both work) Do this by searching for "power options' in windows charm search and >select power plan >Change power plan settings >Change Advanced Power Settings >Power Button and Lid >selecting either Sleep or Hibernation (both work as i said earlier)
    ON THE PRO SIDE: My HDD boot from total Shutdown State time is "about" 50 seconds but more significantly, closing the lid into sleep keeps my work available again, and takes 9.5 seconds to boot from sleep into usable actions!!!!
    So despite losing SSD Cache, I now know a lot more about my computer, and the sleep function and Hibernation work supremely well.
    I hope someone finds this thread useful...
    Shane
    Laslty, it is sooooo strange how this all happened overnight with the iaStora.sys; iaStorAV.sys iaStora.sys errors...and how restoring back to previous states didn't work, and how it seemingly corrupted even the Flash Stored Cache settings and Operating System! At least I now understand my computer better and luckily this didn't occur during previous Diploma studies. Phew.....

  • Forms and Reports: Automated Test tools - functionality AND performance

    All,
    I'm looking to get a few leads on an automated test tools that may be used to validate Oracle forms and reports (see my software configuration below). I'm looking for tools that can automate both functional tests and performance. By this I mean;
    Functional Testing:
    * Use of shortcut keys
    * Navigation between fields
    * Screen organisation (filed locations)
    * Exercise forms validation (bad input values)
    * Provide values to forms and simulate user commit, and go and verify database state is as expected
    Performance Testing:
    * carry out tests for fixed user load
    * carry out tests for scaled step increase in user load
    * automated collection of log files and metrics during test
    So far I have:
    http://www.neotys.com/
    Thanks in advance for your response.
    Mathew Butler
    Configuration:
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux x86-64 architecture v4.5 64 bit
    Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 ( with patch 10.1.2.3 )
    Oracle Developer Suite (Oracle Forms and Reports) V10.1.2.0.2 ( with patch 10.1.2.3 )
    Oracle JInitiator 1.3.1.17 or later
    Microsoft Internet Explorer 6

    are there any tools for doing this activity like oracle recommended tools?
    Your question is unclear.  As IK mentioned, the only tool you need is a new version of Oracle Forms/Reports.  Open your v10 modules in a v11 Builder and select Save.  You now have a v11 module.  Doing a "Compile All PL/SQL" before saving is a good idea, but not required.  The Builders and utilites provided with the version 11 installation are the only supported tools for upgrading your application.  If you are trying to do the conversion of many Forms files in a scripted manner, you can use the Forms compiler in a script.  Generating new "X" files will also update the source modules (fmb, mmb, pll).  See MyOracleSupport Note 955143.1
    Also included in the installation in the Forms Migration Assistant.  Although it is more useful to people coming from older versions, it can also be used to move from v10 to 11.  It allows you to select more than one file at a time.  Documentation for this utility can be found in the Forms Upgrade Guide.

  • Recently Got a Mac Book and was wondering if there is any software that Apple recommends to import my music/pics/video from my Iphone onto my computer. I no longer have the previous compture and if I sync my Iphone I'll lose everything.

    Recently Got a Mac Book and was wondering if there is any software that Apple recommends to import my music/pics/video from my Iphone onto my computer. I no longer have the previous computer and if I sync my Iphone I'll lose everything.

    This is the iTunes for Windows forum...
    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new windows installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup! (Windows tip). For a Mac use Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • Oracle Enterprise Manager Agent deployment (Installation and Configuration) Error

    Hello,
    I am trying to create an agent on a linux server using Oracle Enterprise Manager 12.1.0.3. The user is created with root privilege on the server, by change /etc/sudoers entry username the same as the root entry. After that I tried to add host target by clicking Setup->Add Target->Add target Manually->Add Host Targets in the Oracle Enterprise Manager.
    In the Add Target view: I clicked on add, then I entry host and platform information. After that I click next. Then I provided the Linux x86-64 : Installation Details for
    Installation Base Directory, Instance Directory, Name Credential ... then click next. then click Deploy Agent.
    In the Add Host Status view: stages Initialization and Remote Prerequisite Check successfully passed, but in the stage Agent Deployment, it failed in the Installation and Configuration phrase of the Agent Deployment stage.
    The log content is shown below. There are numerous SEVERE Errors. But I don't have much experience in dealing with these type of problems. I thank you in advance for all the helps.

    “This  happen if the software library is not accessible, readable or unmounted (if it is in shared file system).”
    On Enterprise Manager server [nsn175-105], we did the following:
    1. we modified /etc/exports to include this line: /export *(rw,no_root_squash,sync)
    we start nfs service by executing command “service nfs start”.  
    On Management Agent server (nsn175-89), we verified that we are able to mount /export directory of EM server.
    On Management Agent server, we started firefox browser and were able to run successfully https://nsn175-105.us.oracle.com:4904/empbs/genwallet
    After making this change, we ran agent deployment again. We encountered the same error as shown above.
    “You can fix the software library or you can download the agent bits in offline mode.”
    For fixing the software library, select Setup->Provision and Patching->Offline Patching, then select Offline Patching radio button, download: https://updates.oracle.com/download/em_catalog.zip. Next upload this zip file.

    We are not sure what agent bits are. Would you please explain this and provide procedure how we can download this?

  • Windows 8 64-bit, failed installations and RAID 1 resync on HP ENVY h8-1520z

    I recently purchased an HP Envy h8-1520z with a single SSD and 8 GB RAM running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.  I installed 2 Western Digital 500 GB WDC WD5000AAKX-001CA0 HDDs on SATA ports 5 & 6 and configured them as RAID 1 in the BIOS.  I have started installing apps on the RAID 1 array (E since the SSD is only 256 GB.
    While installing software, some install fine, but often the installation hangs with no errors indicated and I have to kill the installer task through task manager.  I usually follow that with a system shutdown or restart and almost every time that results in a resync of the RAID array.  Sometimes the shutdown or restart is quick, and other times it takes several minutes with intermittent disk activity as indicated by the drive light.  I have sometimes given up after 10 minutes or so and powered down by holding down the power button.  I can understand a resync after the forced power down, but it seems that all it takes to cause a resync is a failed installation, and that seem to happen a lot, even with software that explicitly says it is Windows 8 compatible.  Sometimes the applications run fine even after an apparently failed installation and other times not so much.
    Has anybody else seen this behavior or have any suggestions?  I’d like to get this sorted out before I load any more software.

    Hi,
    Did you check each hard drive for straps? There should not be any straps installed on the hard drive. These drives do have strapping posts.
    Did you use the AMD RaidExpert to create the array volume?  Did you wait until the RAID migration was complete before using the array volume?
    Check the AMD RaidExpert for errors. It's possible that you have a bad hard drive(s).
    Many applications want to be installed on the C drive.  Your SSD is 256GB so you should have plenty of space for most applications and the application performance will be improved.  Use the RAID 1 array to keep and store your data. The mirroring process of RAID 1 will protect it in case one hard drive fails.
    You might want to consider removing all of the data etx.. from the array, use the AMD RAIDExpert to delete out the array volume.  I would then run for hard drive diagnostics.  If the hard drives are free from errors then use disk management to separately reformat each hard drive.  Now go back to the AMD RaidExpert and create your new array volume.
    Be sure to review the software and bios updates for your PC.

  • Exch 2013 Installation and configuration from a SBS point of view?

    I was just wondering if anyone has stumbled upon any good "how-to" sites for those of us that (up to now) have been used to using SBS servers but now find ourselves needing to go the manual route with separate new servers (domain controller and
    Exchange 2013 server)?
    I'm trudging along with my first Server 2012 R2 and Exchange 2013 SP1 installation and configuration, but since I'm used to things configuring themselves in SBS, the piecemeal approach to 2013 is presenting challenges for me.  
    Considering the market for SBS is small business (and for me, typical 20 users), I'm looking for some direction and help in configuring these new servers to act like SBS 2011 replacement servers, with similar capabilites, etc...from the viewpoint of an SBS
    administrator, per se.
    Maybe nothing exists and we have to start from scratch, but I was hoping with as big as the SBS market was, there would be some useful info out there with the realization that we're coming from SBS.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    It seems you have installed the Exchange Server and preparing to move mailboxes to the new host. You can check the application log to check whether the new installed Exchange works
    fine.
    If there are any error ID/reports, you can post them here for our referernce.

  • OEM 10.2.0.1 installation and upgrade to 10.2.0.3

    Dear all,
    I want to install the latest version of OEM 10.2.0.3 on Linux RedHat 4. However, after downloading the OEM 10.2.0.3 and reading the release note, I realized that the download is just the 10.2.0.3 upgrade patchset. I have to do a fresh base installation of OEM 10.2.0.1 first. Is this correct?
    After installing OEM 10.2.0.1 with an existing 10.2.0.1 database, I need to upgrade OEM 10.2.0.1 to OEM 10.2.0.3 using the patchset I downloaded. Because both OMS and AGENT will be upgraded, I am not sure what installation destination I shoud supply? OMS_HOME, or AGENT_HOME, or just a new home for upgrade? What are the required steps to upgrade OEM 10.2.0.1 to OEM 10.2.0.3?
    Are there any documentation or articles that I can follow to do the upgrade?
    Thanks a lot in advanced.
    Xiaoping

    There is a README.txt file in the 10.2.0.3 patchset zip file that has the instructions for upgrading 10.2.0.1 OEM to 10.2.0.3.
    You download 10.2.0.1 separately which delivers a 10.1.0.4 database. Apply the one-off database patch to the db10g 10.1.0.4 Oracle Home via opatch, then use runInstaller to upgrade to 10.2.0.3 via 3731593. You can optionally create a db10gr2 10.2.0.1 Oracle Home, apply the 10.2.0.3 patchset then run dbua to upgrade the 10.1.0.4 repository database to 10.2.0.3.
    You probably would have had fast response posting to the Enterprise Manager Grid Control forum:
    Enterprise Manager
    2. Fresh Installation of Enterprise Manger 10g Grid Control Release 2 and upgrading it to Release 3
    In order to install Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Release 3, you must install either 10.2.0.1.0 or 10.2.0.2.0 Grid Control environment. This section describes steps to install Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Release 3 environment starting with 10.2.0.1.0 (10.2.0.2.0 for Windows) install
    2.1 Install Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Release 2
    Installing 10g Grid Control Release 3 requires any previous releases of Grid Control, that is any 10.2.x.x.x installation, and upgrade to 10.2.0.3.0 release. If you do not have a previous release, but want to have a 10.2.0.3.0 Grid Control environment, then first install 10.2.0.1.0 Grid Control (10.2.0.2.0 for Windows), and then upgrade it to 10.2.0.3.0. Start with the Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Release 2 Grid Control media pack (DVD) and install 10.2.0.1.0 (10.2.0.2.0 for Windows)
    - Insert DVD into your computer (note: It is better to copy the DVD contents to local hard disk for faster performance)
    - Run runInstaller (setup.exe for Windows) to start installation
    - When asked for "install type" option, choose "Enterprise Manager using New Database" option
    - Complete installation as per install guide
    Important: For information about installing 10.2.0.1.0 and 10.2.0.2.0, refer to the installation guides available at:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/oem.html
    2.2 Apply required patches
    In the case of Grid Control environment installed via "Enterprise Manager using New Database" option, repository database version is 10.1.0.4.0. Before upgrading to 10.2.0.3, apply the patch for bug 4329444 on the Database Home. In order to apply this patch for the Solaris platform:
    - Copy the p4329444_10104_<platform>.zip file from the DVD to any directory on the host which has the repository database running on.
    - Unzip the file using following command:
    $ unzip p4329444_10104_<platform>.zip
    - Follow the instruction in 4329444/README.txt to apply the patch
    For more detail on this, refer to the release note.
    2.3 Install Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Release 3
    2.3.1 Copy the p3731593_102030_<platform name>.zip patch set installation archive from the DVD to any directory on the host which has the Oracle Management Service running on it.
    2.3.2 Perform the installation
    - Enter the following command to unzip and extract the installation files from the downloaded image described in section 1.2:
    $ unzip p3731593_102030_<platform name>.zip
    This extracts the files to the "3731593" directory.
    - Navigate to the 3731593/Disk1 subdirectory
         $ cd 3731593/Disk1
    - Set the ORACLE_HOME variable to the Oracle Management Service(OMS) oracle home.
    - Execute the runInstaller (setup.exe for Windows)
         $ ./runInstaller
    The upgrades process then upgrades the Oracle Management Service (OMS), Oracle Management Repository and the Management Agent on the same host as the OMS to the latest Enterprise Manager 10g release 3 version.
    Important: The same Patch Set can be used for patching OMS,Repository, and Management Agent. For more detail on installing the patchset, refer to the release note.
    2.4 Optional: Upgrading Repository Database to 10.2.0.3
    If you installed Grid Control 10.2.0.1.0 (10.2.0.2.0 for Windows) via "Enterprise Manager using New Database" option, your repository database version is 10.1.0.4. In order to upgrade your repository database to 10.2.0.3, follow the steps below after upgrading your Grid Control environment to Enterprise Manager 10g release 3.
    a. Upgrade the database to 10.2.0.1
    b. Install 10.2.0.3 database patchset

  • Hi I bought a macbook in 2007/2008 and am wondering if it is possible to update the operating system? Here are my system details: Hardware Overview:    Model Name:     MacBook   Model Identifier:     MacBook4,1   Processor Name:     Intel Core 2 Duo   Pro

    Hi, I bought a Macbook in 2007/2008 and am wondering if it is possible to update my system so I can get the new version of iTunes?
    Here are my current system details: Mac OsX Version 10.5.8
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:    MacBook
      Model Identifier:    MacBook4,1
      Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:    2.4 GHz
      Number Of Processors:    1
      Total Number Of Cores:    2
      L2 Cache:    3 MB
      Memory:    2 GB
      Bus Speed:    800 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:    MB41.00C1.B00
      SMC Version (system):    1.31f1

    The model 4,1 can run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.  The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    System Requirements for 10.6:
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
      Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
    You can upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.5 should run under10.6. See this list for third party programs compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/  You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications 
    http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/  
    Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. Or go to http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion and purchase it there. The price is $19.99.
    Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • Would it still be possible to retrieve encrypted files from a Mac OS X 10.8.5 after clean install and performing command p and r?

    I'm just wondering, if it would still be possible to retrieve encrypted files (such as home folders using legacy filevault) from Mac OS X 10.8.5 after clean install of new OS and performing command-p and -r during bootup? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Something to know. All of these tools have two things in common:
    1) You must have another drive to save the recovered data to. You cannot save it back to the same partition you are recovering from since doing so could overwrite data you are trying to save.
    2) They take forever to complete. In Windows, a deleted file or folder simply has a flag changed on its entry in the file table so the OS knows the space it used to occupy is free to use for other data. To unerase, the software simply changes the flag back to "live". That's why they work so easily and fast in Windows. How long an item has been marked as erased determines whether or not the space it sat on has since been used by new data.
    On a Unix system (which OS X sits on top of), deleted data has its file table entry removed. The only way then to find deleted data is to scour the entire drive for BOF (beginning of file) markers and reading the data of each one it finds to its EOF (end of file) marker.
    So be prepared to wait for hours for a search to complete. It could take more than a day for a terabyte or larger drive. It also doesn't help that recovered data rarely has any of the original names.
    Edit: Also, did you do a simple erase of the drive, or a zero write erase? If the latter, your chances of recovering anything is virtually nil.
