Installing a Torrent Download of Mac OS X 10.4 - does it work? Is it safe?

Does anyone know about Torrent Downloads? The service is not free, so I want to be sure it's alright before signing up. I want to upgrade my Panther OS to Tiger. I have a 30GB hard drive. I also have a DVD drive.

Maybe I wasn't clear. I wasn't suggesting he install Leopard, I was simply making the case that since Leopard is available from Apple Phone Sales, Tiger might still be, as well. But he needs to try Apple Phone Sales UK (assuming that exists.) But thanks for pointing that out, in case it led him to believe he could install Leopard.

I'd be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and think that perhaps he wasn't considering, or even aware of, the legal implications. I think a lot of people simply don't realize what this means and his post was possibly completely innocent. (It sounded that way to me.)

  • Plz Recommend an "Automatic" Torrent Downloader for Mac/OSX Yosemite

    Hello. I was hoping somebody could please recommend an "Automatic" Torrent Downloader for Mac/OSX Yosemite..
    I know that there are a few options out there, but most of them seem to be directed towards TV Shows.. which isn't a problem, but I was hoping for one that could be used for pretty much anything.. like applications, music, movies, TV shows, ****, whatever..
    Basically, something where you could enter a "keyword" or "artist", for example, and have it automatically add whatever new torrents come up in whatever specific parameters you set (so you could basically set a music artist's name, for example, and specify music only, so that it's not downloading every video, image, or whatever that also contains that "keyword")..
    Does something like this exist for Mac/OS X Yosemite? Would really love a recommendations! Thank you!

    You need to transfer the iTunes Library from the most recent backup you made before the hard drive was replaced.
    You can't transfer the full iTunes Library from the iPad back to iTunes.
    There are third-party Windows applications that will transfer data from an iOS device, but they don't re-create the iTunes Library exactly as it was before.

  • I have a new laptop and I am trying to download CS3. The site on adobe gives an error message and the one I tried from this forum downloaded CS3 extended, so my serial number does not work. Does anyone have any suggestions. Regards Vicki

    Hi,
    I have a new laptop and I am trying to download CS3. The site on adobe gives an error message and the one I tried from this forum downloaded CS3 extended, so my serial number does not work. Does anyone have any suggestions. Regards Vicki

    The trial is always extended. The serial number you enter determines whether it runs as standard or extended.
    I'm getting through fine with that link, so it must be a browser issue or some such thing. Try another browser.

  • BLOB download from report region in translated application does not work

    We created an application (APEX 3.1.2) with a base language dutch (300) and a translated application en-uk (3001). The problem is that in the translated application downloading BLOB's from a report region does not work and results in an error (page cannot be found).
    The query source for the region is:
    select naam
    , dbms_lob.getlength(bestand)
    , mimetype
    from bos_documentatie
    The column 'dbms_lob.getlength(filename)' is defined as a 'BLOB Download Format Mask' with the following setting:
    DOWNLOAD:BOS_DOCUMENTATIE:BESTAND:NAAM::MIMETYPE:FILENAME:::attachment:Open
    The URL's to the BLOB documents are different between the dutch and en-uk application:
    dutch:

    en-uk:
    http://nldvnr01ux002:7792/pls/xvapexd/apex_util.get_blob?s=4260101889649158&a=300&c=12455124581749125.3001&p=1001&k1=Application Multi Language.doc&k2=&ck=7FF0C64FDD48A4D7A6892CFB2B6BCA57&rt=CR
    As you can see the c parameter for the en-uk version has a '.3001' at the end, the internal ID of the translated application. I don't know if this can be the cause of the problem?

    Hi Peter,
    Thanks for the suggestion. However we have a lot of APEX applications build in that same APEX version (one development database) and upgrading now to a higher APEX version would mean we would have to re-test all our applications and upgrade all our test and production environments, just for this bug. And, maybe the higher APEX version may not solve our problem.
    Thanks and regards,
    Patrick

  • My Mac (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5) downloads the newest version of Adobe, it does not work. Why?

    My Mac (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5) downloads the newest version of Adobe, but Adobe does not seem to be working, as I cannot download the pdf documents I need (and I get yet another message stating I need to download the newest version of Adobe). Everytime I try, I get a message saying it will not download. I have tried to download the newest Adobe version dozens of times. WHat is not working?

    ...of Adobe what ?  Adobe is the name of the company that literally offers hundreds of different software products, each of which has a specific name.  Unless you tell us what you downloaded, we have no idea what "does not work".

  • Mac Mini + A1038 Cinema Display does not work

    Hi,
    I have a 2009 model Mac Mini with mini-dvi and mini-display port's on the rear. I can connect any of my DVI based monitors to the mac mini using either the mini-dvi to dvi cable or the mini-displayport to dvi cable. All monitors except for the A1038 model Apple Cinema Display.
    The cinema display works with 3 other computers with DVI ports, turns right on and is detected right away. When plugged into the mini it does nothing. Sometimes I can get it to work with the mini-dvi to dvi adapter but that is sporadic.
    This is the same behavior with a 2009 model mac book pro and macbook. Using the mini-displayport to dvi cable the cinema display does not work but 3 other monitors do.
    So my question is, why does apple hardware only work with non-apple hardware?

    Is the A1038 the old, plastic Cinema Display that doesn't have a power cord or power supply? It only has a video cable with the special ADC on it? If that's the case, it needs this to run from a newer Mac:

  • Mac and software issues, Dictation does not work....another update another round of new software.

    just installed Mountain Lion, tried to use Dictation in Pages 08 and nothing worked, tried turning it on, activating it using fn fn and nothing!!  Does this mean i am going to have to buy new software AGAIN??

    The single beep could indicate that you don't have your cursor in an area that can accept text input.
    In other words, Dictation cannot be turned on unless you are in a place where you could be typing on the keyboard and seeing it appear on the screen - in an email, Word document etc.  Dictation can only be turned on when you're ready to use it, it doesn't wait in the background.

  • Mac Lion. Search function does not work in mails.

    Hello,
    I already wasted several hours trying to find solution for a problem which appeared with Lion, search function does not work, in mail at least.
    I was not using Leopard before and I am not a mac expert.
    (search function was already bad in the normal it was already bad in the normal 10.7 set up but at least it was working in mac mails).
    I tried reindexing via spotlight privacy settings (adding and removing HD) but does not work much better.
    I don't want to go to terminal, as as mentioned I don't know enough about mac to try this.
    What to do?
    Thanks,
    C.
