Installing new OS and Adobe CS3

Hello,
I have an old Powermac G3 with a Power PC G4 400MHz processor installed and 512 MB memory.
I would like to install Mac OSX10.4(Its currently running 10.3.9) and Adobe CS3.
Will it have enough memory to install these?
If not, how much memory can I install?
The memory is in the form of 4X 128MB memory at the moment.
Any help appreciated.
Angela

What size hard drive do you have & how much free space?
Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available from Apple. For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4) . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.
Also check this web store http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521
Possible Alternative - OS X Tiger 10.4 Upgrade DVD $74.95
http://www.yourmacstore.com/shop/shopexd.asp?id=376&bc=no
After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Look at this link Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page
http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/
You can also download the Tiger Installation and Setup Guide
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/TigerInstall_SetupGuide.pdf
When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710

    Adobe document services require access to fonts that are installed with the Font Manager Module. This module contains a number of Adobe bundled fonts installed in /usr/sap/<SID>/J<xx>/j2ee/os_libs/adssap/FontManagerService/fonts/adobe.
    Create a subdirectory called fonts below the
      /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/FontManagerServicedirectory  
    Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts directory created in the previous step
    Copy your font file(s) into the customer directory
    Restart the "Document Services Font Manager" for the changes to take effect.Use Visual Admin on the Adobe Document server

  • So I just bought a used MacBook from Amazon with OSX 10.5.8.  I am trying to install new software and operating system, but I don't have the passwords to the Users set up in the computer.  What do I do?

    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.

  • Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new sad and upgraded to Mountain Lion., but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this?  Graham

    Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new ssd and upgraded to Mountain Lion, but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this?  A backup run did not install either photos or songs. Graham

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

    Apple dropped playback support for .swf formats in QuickTime almost ten years ago.
    Adobe Flash Player is the only way to view them.

    Hi,
    Sounds like it isn't to serious. the Bluetooth connection had an error and that is that generated
    the Problem report.
    When the Blackberry started to use Bluetooth the "gold standard" was using Microsoft's
    "native" windows drivers. Now, every major PC company has there own version
    Thus the problem report.
    There is  rather involved and lengthy procedure to check and install the correct Bluetooth drivers
    in the Dell, but I really don't think you want to take that on.( Nod you head and say H*LL YES)
    Here is what I propose;
    The problem report needs to be resolved or it wont go away. Read the manual, call Dell,
    try apologizing to it and that you'll never never do it again, what ever it takes!
    Make the best investment you can make for your Blackberry, buy a media card.
    All the memory in the BB is dynamic, this facilitates the functions of the phone.
    By storing media in that memory, you effect are wasting X amount for file storage.
    Store all media and files on the media card, and you will have a smooth running device.
    They run about $25.00usd, they are easy to install, and they also make moving your
    media a snap. You will need the USB adapter that came with it, but you can get that at
    your local carrier store.
    So if you agree with this I need some info.
    On the Blackberry go to the options icon,click then scroll up to ABOUT.
    I need your software version number, it's listed in this format: 4.x.x.xxx.
    Send it back to me and I can tell you what size card you can get.
    Let me know your thoughts!
    Thanks,

    I went on Itunes to install new software and backup. It has been running all night and still saying preparing Iphone for restore. How long is this suppose to take?

    Preparing your iPhone for restore its supposed to be about 1-2 minutes! Do you see any errors the time you plug in the wire from your iPhone to iTunes?

  • Problem installing new email and calendar update o...

    Confirmed!
    It's an anti-virus related issue. First tried to disable only protection, firewall, etc., but it did not work fine.
    As suggested, so I deleted KMS (but keeping the application settings and objects in quarantine), and was finally able to complete the installation of the update.Then installed again KMS and everything still works fine.
    No experience of Wi-Fi issues.

  • Windows 7 and Adobe CS3 Production Premium?

    I'm about to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, and would like to know if Adobe CS3 Production Premium will install on
    Windows 7 64-bit?
    Has anyone experience any problems?  Is there anything I should be aware of, or extra steps that must be taken during the installation of CS3?
    Thanks.

    It should but why in the world would you stick with 32 bit video apps if you're moving to Win 7 64 bit? You can upgrade for a pretty reasonable amount and take advantage of the new machine. Put a boatload of RAM in there and you'll be a lot happier.
    You can save $40 right now on Amazon with free shipping: http://amzn.to/e7sMSp
    Finally, I'm assuming that this is about a new machine. If you truly mean you're upgrading Windows, then make sure you do a CLEAN INSTALL. Do not do an inplace upgrade of Windows.

  • Installed new version and firefox will not fully launch ... get firefox not responding message...tried to reinstall but no fix.

    My Firefox stopped responding and freezing. I downloaded and installed a new version and this did not help. Reinstalled several times.

    SJ1122 have you removed the migrated InDesign CS6 installation using the uninstaller located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder?  If so then please also run the CC Cleaner tool - Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html to ensure complete removal.

  • Problems with new iMac and Adobe Creative Suite 2

    Just wondering if anyone can help me out. I am a Graphic Design student and just bought Adobe Creative Suite2. I installed it on my new iMac, and it wouldn't open InDesign or Photoshop although I had no problems with Acrobat and Illustrator. A pop-up window stated that the program "unexpectedly quit". I have uninstalled and reinstalled three times and was on hold with Adobe Tech Support for three hours until I finally gave up. If anyone knows what's going on I would appreciate it!

    I dragged the installer from the install disk to my desktop and was more successful in installing problem CS2 apps. Make sure to update everything as well. Some times it takes a restart to get the finickiness out of PS.

  • Spaces and Adobe CS3 (Creative Suite 3)

    I've noticed a strange flaw with Spaces and Adobe Creative Suite 3.
    I initially set up a space for InDesign CS3. Then, because I needed to test something, I attempted to set up a separate space for InDesign CS2. The Spaces Preference Pane won't allow this!
    It appears as though the creator codes (or whatever) are identical for CS2 applications and CS3 applications. If you have both installed on your Mac, the system only sees the latest version-CS3. If you have a CS3 application assigned to a particular space and then try to add the corresponding CS2 program, nothing will change. If you delete the CS3 Spaces assignment and then try adding the CS2 application, it will simply add the CS3 version again.
    My question? Has anyone found a way to get CS2 and CS3 programs to live together in the Spaces Preference Pane simultaneously?

    Hi there,
    Thanks for the additional information.
    Please utilize any available Adobe uninstallers in the Programs and Features control panel.  Once you have removed all Adobe software you can use the CC Cleaner Tool to help ensure complete removal.  You can find details here- http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
    Once you have completely removed all Adobe software and have run the CC Cleaner Tool you can then try reinstalling.  If you need a fresh copy of the installation files the retail installers can be found at Download CS3 products.
    Please let me know if this helps,
    Madison

  • MacbookPro...what is speed when with iLife08 and  Adobe CS3...?

    I will be buying a 17"Macbook Pro next month and I know that it will ship with iLife08. But am also going to be purchasing Adobe CS3. So with all these graphics heavy programs, any thing I should be aware of in terms of speed, specifically if I am editing a movie in iMovie? or importing a quicktime movie into a Web page design? I'm also going to be getting iWorks to do presentations. Lots of graphics. Plus I will be doing a lot of work editing photos in RAW in Photoshop.
    It's a big investment and want to make sure that it's going to help me with my work rather than cause frustration because editing a movie will take as long as it does now on my G4 Powerbook.
    Do I need to customize the Mac when I purchase it so that it has whatever it needs to run faster? I don't want to have to do this after I've purchased it if I don't have to.
    Thank you from a non-techie type person--so please, in layman's terms! Would appreciate it.

    RAM is very important for the tasks you mentioned, and the price Apple charges at the customization stage on their online store is obscene. Replacing the RAM on the MBP is very easy and I'll paste some links to help you decide whether you'll be up for the DIY install. And yes, you should experience a nice speed bump over a G4, even editing in HD.
