Installing 10.6.3 or recent applications.

I just purchased a second imac that comes with OS X 10.6.3. I wanted to upgrade the itunes on my 1st computer (10.5.7, intel) from 8.0 to 10.0. However, I get a message saying I need to install 10.6 before I can do this. When I try to install 10.6 it says that it cannot be installed on this computer. How can this be? My 1st computer is less than two years old and only one version down in OS X.

You can purchase the Snow Leopard install DVD for $29.

  • How do I install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings

    I need to update my system, I realized that I need Snow Leopard (quiet late) before Maverick. My question is, how can I install it keeping files and all the data. I found this on Internet, does it work?
    Install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings
    If you follow these steps, the installer will replace your operating system if one is already present, but will preserve your account information and personal files.  You may have to reinstall some applications, however.
    Insert the install disc (or the first install disc if you have more than one) into your disc drive. Restart your computer while holding down the c key. This causes your computer to start up from the install disc rather than your hard drive. When you see the gray Apple insignia, release c . 
    The Mac OS X installer should open automatically. Follow the on-screen prompts to read and accept the license agreement and begin the installation. When prompted to choose a destination disk, select your preferred location and click Install. 
    When the Mac OS X installation finishes with the disc, restart your computer. After the installation completes, a configuration program may begin automatically if you are installing for the first time. You will need to supply basic setup information for your computer. 
    Update your system software to ensure that you have the most recent operating system components.  From the Apple menu, select Software Update... , and then follow the instructions on the screen. Often, you will have to restart your computer, and you may have to run Software Update multiple times before it can completely update your system.

    That's why you need to back it up. You won't need to restore the backup immediately afterwards unless something goes wrong during the upgrade, but you'll need it later; the drive will eventually fail.

  • I need to re install creative cloud and related desktop application after hard disk formatting. Please advise?

    My hard disk got reformatted recently, please advise how to re install creative cloud and related desktop application like LR & PS on the same machine.

    Hello,
    to reinstall CC shouldn't be a problem. You could download all the programs you need in the "try" Version from Adobe's download website. Because you have all needed serial numbers and so on, you can change your programs into "real" versions.
    Maybe it'*s necessary, that you have to activate/deactivate pleae have a look there:

  • Recent Applications remain seated

    I've just noticed some strange behavior on my OS2.0 Playbook and can't determine if it's the Playbook itself or software.  After opening/closing up to 6 apps, they seem to remain seated in the background of "Recent Applications" 2.0.0.56 and I am unable to open a seventh app or more.  There seems to be no way of clearing this cache (assuming that's what it is) without rebooting.  
    While I'm on the subject... I purchased my playbook approximately 4 months ago.  As far as you know, have there been and hardware changes to the Playbook since that time?  Not referring to specs like RAM or anything.  I just wondered if there was any chance the BB Playbook has had any product tweaking that I may have missed out on at all.  
    This thing does a few things that it shouldnt be doing.  For instances the backlight seemsto have a mind of its own regardless of manual setup.  Sometimes out of the blue the screen will suddenly brighten up or down for no reason and at other times, applications start and then dissapear within a split second of starting up.  
    It's been like this since I bought it and wiping and reinstalling makes no difference.

    I have seen this before as well. To explain it I think it is the android player in which the apps you see are android apps. They always seem to be open in this recent list even after you remove them from the home screen. I have asked the development team if they would be able to make it easier to find out what apps are android or blackberry playbook apps. However they didn't see why we wanted to know the difference. 
    For now I just don't install ones I think are android apps because even now it seems very experimental. I love the playbook but I wish they would open it up more and give developers more of an edge for developing not just through an api.

    You don't.  Apple no longer ships Front Row... it's part of the OS... so it goes away when you upgraded.

  • Does Installing J2SE 5.0 Break any Applications?

    1. Does J2SE 5.0 contain a newer JRE, and if so does installing J2SE 5.0 Break any Applications due to the new JRE?
    2. What information frrom the operating system do Java Applications need in order to find the "correct" version of JRE. Do they get information from the registry or the path.
    3. Is there a reason to continue using an older JRE, and if so, how would one do it?
    4. Does Sun publish any application notes that address the above questions?

    1. Does J2SE 5.0 contain a newer JRE, and if so does
    installing J2SE 5.0 Break any Applications due to the
    new JRE?A few small incompatibilities. A simple test should reveal them quite quickly.

  • How to install a specified version of an application

    Hallo, how can I install a specified version of an application like LibreOffice and the 4.0.x branch and keep it in that branch or version?
    Thank you.

    Ok, I have removed the libreoffice install in my system and downloaded libreoffice-core-3.6.7.2.tar.xz from the libreoffice archive. But I can't install it:
    pacman -U libreoffice-core-3.6.7.2.tar.xz
    loading packages...
    error: missing package metadata in libreoffice-core-3.6.7.2.tar.xz
    error: 'libreoffice-core-3.6.7.2.tar.xz': invalid or corrupted package
    Other packages like libreoffice-binfilter-3.6.7.2.tar.xz or libreoffice-translations-3.6.7.2.tar.xz don't work, too.

  • Installing Adobe Creative Suite to Shared Applications folder

    Hello,
    I have a client asking to install Creative Suite to a shared application folder on the server. Can you anyone with some experience on this provide any feedback on performance, issues, stability etc? Is it even doable with Creative Suite to host it on the server, without using Home Directories?

    If it can even be done performance is going to be devastated because of the fact that everything that "runs" need to be loaded over the network as opposed to from the local hard drive. If you think it takes too long for Photoshop to open now, you ain't seen nothing yet.
    Without actually trying it first hand I can say it's not likely to be easy. Simply running the installer on the server definitely won't work. Creative Suite isn't a simple drag and drop install. There are a lot of shared components that get installed into locations other than the Applications folder and the clients won't know where to find them.
    I hate to think the worst but the only reason I could even suspect wanting to do this would be to utilize a single licensed copy amongst multiple users which would be a license violation. I'd be wary.

  • I can't install pages 09 on a recent iMac running 10.9.1.

    I can't install pages 09 on a recent iMac running 10.9.1. I am using a retail dvd - I get the error message that the "installer is damaged".
    Any suggestions? THANKS

    Open your System Preferences and go to "Security & Privacy". In the General tab set "Allow apps downloaded from:" to Anywhere. (You may have to click the lock and enter your administrator password first before you can make this change).
    Now try the installer again. Make sure you change the setting back to it's previous setting when you are done and check the App Store for any updates to your iWork apps before you start using it.

  • I recently downloaded / installed FCP X before reading to NOT install it on a volume containing a previous version of FCP. I installed FCP X in the same Applications folder as FCP v6. I have moved FCP 6 to the trash, but now, should I reinstall FCP X?

    I recently downloaded / installed FCP X into the same folder as a previous version of FCP before reading to NOT do that. I've trashed the older version of FCP, but now what? Has there been damage done? Should I trash FCP X and reinstall it?

    Hi Andy, You say that when installing FCP X the old FCP should move to a new folder called Final Cut Studio. I have just installed FCP X Trial and checked in the applications folders and nothing has changed. Final Cut Pro is where it has always been.
    Hmm. I din't have experience of the trial version - maybe it doesn't move legacy FCP.
    Make a new folder (Final Cut Studio) in the Applications folder, and drag FCP there.
    I have also found that the sound effects in FCP X keep disappearing and I need to re start FCP X for them to appear again. This has happened several times today.
    This could be a case of a conflict with Final Cut Pro. What do you think?
    I doubt it, but FCP X is a fickle application.
    If moving FCP doesn't fix it, post a new topic to ask about this.

  • Though installed firefox 10.0, I recently have the application updater.exe running as soon as firefox is launched. The problem disappears when forcefully closing updater.exe, then also firefox calms down. How to avoid this problem?

    It consumes 30% of cpu and takes with it firefox, together consuming more than half of CPU and going on >1/2h.
    This is a new phenomenon which slows down all other activity on my computer.

    After updating to version 10 I closed Firefox.
    I noticed that there was a lot of CPU activity.
    Checked Task Manager and noticed that in Processes, firefox.exe and plug-in container were running. Opened Firefox and closed again but the processes were still running in TM.
    Highlighted firefox.exe in TM and clicked End Process. Both processes disappeared from TM.
    Have opened and closed FF a couple of times since with no problem.
    However, the OP seems to indicate that this is a problem that re-occurs.
    Why is FF not shutting down properly? Is it possibly something to do with the automatic check for add in/extension updates?
