Is a Mac Power PC (not Intel) on OSX 10.5.8 compatible with FF4?

I have a Mac Power PC G5 (i.e. pre Intel) and I am using OSX 10.5.8. My current Firefox is 3.6.24 and they tell I should upgrade, I guess to FF 4, but tech. spec. recommends Mac Intel. Is a Power PC compatible with FF4? Thanks

No, Firefox 3.6.x. is the last version of Firefox from Mozilla for PPC Mac's.
For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

How do i update my Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard software so it is compatible with my iphone5?

how do i update my Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard software so it is compatible with my iphone5?

If you have a PowerPC iMac, you don't.
If you have an Intel iMac, phone the online Apple Store and order a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.

In what file type and compression format did you download the YouTube content? I.e., to avoid such issues, you would normally download the source files as content that is natively compatible with your target player or convert incompatible file type/compression format combinations to files that are compatible with your targeted media player.

Yes and no. Yes, there is a version of Aperture that is compatible with your machine (3.2.4), but Apple no longer sells it on the Mac App Store. The retail version is still available from Amazon, but it's about $20 more than the Mac App Store version.
If you do buy the retail version, you should be able to use Software Update to update your copy once it's been installed.

Hello, mac mini will not boot. I get a file symbol with a question mark, then a white screen, Hello, mac mini will not boot. I get a file symbol with a question mark, then a white screen

Hello, My mac mini will not boot. When I turn it on, I get the chime, then the white screen, then the apple symbol, then a file symbol with a question mark, then the white screen and then it stays like that.
Is this a bad hard drive?

Sounds like it. Try booting from your OSX restore DVDs - startup and hold down "C". This will take AGES! Then run Disk Utility from the menu.
The flashing ? means your system is corrupt, dead, not there, on a dying HD, etc...

Mac Mini will not boot OS, can I get to files with another Mac?

My mac mini will not boot the OS proserly, it goes to a screen that tells me that some root folder can not be found.
The install CD works and I can boot to it. The disk utility reports no problems, all disk repairs done and OK.
The computer still will not boot to the OS.
How can I get the files I need off the drive before I reinstall the OS?
I have other Macs and fire wire cables, cross over cables, regular eithernet cables. What can I do?
Thanks!

How can I get the files I need off the drive before I reinstall the OS?
Connect it to another Mac with a FireWire cable and start it up with the T key held down.

I am running OSX 10.5.8 on a 2008 Imac with Intel Core 2 duo am I compatible with OSX 10.6 snow leopard, much less Lion and Mountain Lion?

I want to link all my apple products so I can use icloud with ease but I am running OSX 10.5.8 on a 2008 imac with intel core 2 duo and not sure it's going to be beneficial or compatible. Is my desktop really just an external hard drive alreadt in 5 years? I just purchased a mac book pro 2012 and also have a 3Gs iphone I just want to have a happy apple family ; )

Your computer is compatible with all of those OSes, but may need more RAM to run 10.7 or 10.8. As the RAM requirement is the same for both 10.7 and 10.8, don't bother with 10.7 unless you're using software incompatible with 10.8.

MAC: color management failure. Mac OSX 10.4.3 compatible with PS Elements 2.0?

Can't print directly from PS Elements 2 on my Mac: G5 single 1.8GHz processor; 1.5Meg RAM; over 220 gig free space on hard drive; Mac OSX 10.4.3; Epson Photo R800 printer and paper with Epson ICC profiles installed and working.
PSE 2 slaughters the color on printout (this shows up in preview, too). I've downloaded and installed the "Ignore EXIF Color Space" plug-in, it loads during PSE 2 startup, but the sRGB color space is still indicated in the PSE 2 print dialogues.
A second problem: iPhoto indicates that files written by PSE 2 (.psd or .jpeg) are unreadable and will not open them.
However, I can open these PSE 2 files and print them with the Mac Preview application and everything seems to work ok. This all feels like an incompatibility issue between PSE 2 and Mac OSX 10.4.3. Will I have to buy PSE 3? (Although the Adobe web site only says PSE 3 is compatible with Mac OS X v.10.2.8 or v.10.3; there is no mention of "or higher" or of Mac OSX 10.4.3 in particular.)

Thank you for your helpful and quick advice.
Unfortunately, I did not have the latest version of Disk Warrior. Your probably right that zeroing the drive was overkill, but what a great feeling to start over! I feel like I just took a shower, broke up with my girlfriend, and moved to Italy to start a new life.
I went ahead and installed a retail version of OSX 10.4.3 and I am back up and running. I am going to stay a away from the latest OSX software updates for now to see how things play out.

Zeroing is not necessary in most cases. A bad node
can frequently be repaired by Alsoft Disk Warrior
(assuming your data is backed up). If your data
isn't backed up, a bad node can often be read through
by Prosoft Data Rescue.
If I didn't catch you in time to stop your zeroing,
if installing the operating system you have
difficulty with zeroing, then perhaps the drive has
failed or its connector has failed. Be sure when you
go to install to only install the operating system
that came with the computer or a newer retail
operating system.

My mac osx version isn't compatible with Firefox4 & can't retrieve earlier firefox version

I am running mac tiger. Today I downloaded firefox4 for upgrade, wrote over older version of firefox (3.6?), then when I tried to log onto internet using firefox4, I got the message that it was not compatible with my current operating system. How can I get back to older version of firefox?

You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

I am not getting the site launcher that is compatible with firefox 5, so by when it will be launched?

i am using firefox 5, it is very good but it has compatibility problem with site launcher, mean the site launcher for ff5 is not available. I have downloaded the site launcher 1.6.4 and installed it but it is not accepting any shortcut and it is not triggered when ctrl+shift combinations.
so by when it's latest version will be out for use or launched.

I was wondering if it was the sites use of [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3868299/is-autocomplete-off-compatible-with-all-modern-browsers/21348793#21348793 autocomplete-off] but that changes with Fx30 (already changed in pre-release) and already differs in some other browsers and you continue to have the problem with other browsers.
I need to be clear exactly what you do and see. It would also help to know what the site is, although unless it is public and free it probably can not be tested by others, but it does at least enable a search to be made for reports of the problem.
Can you list exactly the steps you take and what you expect to see or happen compared with what does or does not happen.
If this does hinge on how a particular individual site behaves it is not actually a Firefox problem and although someone may provide an answer it may be better asking somewhere else such as

Have you ruled out that other security related software could be interfering, and if this is a problem at work have you asked your IT department.

Can anyone tell me why Apple does not sell a Bluetooth Headset that is compatible with the IPhone 6?? The Bluetooth 4.0 version that the 6 runs has been in place since 2010.

No Bluetooth headsets are compatible with IPhone 6 series-

I originally wrote this post to see if anyone else had come up with a solution to Apple's inability to engineer the Iphone 6 product line to be compliant with Bluetooth 4.0 that has been around for ONLY 5 years. Since you want to talk about driving while talking let's look at your evidence. 1) When you consider that the Washington Post will not admit to the number of participants participating in the study they site makes the study in valid as you cannot tell if any conclusion is statistically valid. The National Safety Council does not give what data it had or where it came from but is pure opinion- not factual. 2) When you look at your second source from Forbes- did you realize that the person who wrote it is a CONTRIBUTOR with no scientific data to back his conlusions? I happen to have be a licensed Insurance Agent for over 30 years. The largest insurance companies (who pay the claims) have not been able to draw conclusions about talking and driving as the number of incidents per million miles (determines the rates charged for coverage) have not been statistically different enough to go to state insurance commissioners to ask for rate increases due to talking and driving at the same time. The states that have enacted Hands Free Laws did so for 1 reason- if a person has 2 hands free to try to avoid an accident there is a higher probability that a driver will maintain control of their own vehicle vs. 1 hand. Can we stick to the subject- Do you think that APPLE should have made the IPhone 6 Compatible with Bluetooth Headsets and why haven't they done so yet?

Running 10.5.8 on Mac Power PC (non-intel) - when I try to download anything I'm only getting .part files this goes for any type of file, large or small.

I've resorted to running Safari when downloading anything. I really would like to remain with Firefox, but I can't figure anything out. I recently upgraded to 10.5 (Leopard) and that's when the downloading issues started.
In addition my default location to download files was the desktop, after the OS upgrade, Firefox will not even allow me to choose the desktop to download to.

Has nobody got any suggestions?

I need help finding a version of Adobe Flash player to run on my PowerMac G5. It is a Power PC, not Intel

I need a version of Adobe Flash Player to work on my PowerPC. Adobe has not been able to help me at all.

Hello,
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!
Or simpler yet...

And the Standalone Player if you need/want it.

Old videos from Power PC not working in OSX

I have old videos (converted from a camcorder to digital) that worked on a Power PC but no longer work in OSX.
The files are still intact, or at least are as large as they were, but do not seem to contain a file format. "Get Info" says they are a document (many GBs in size).
These were originally videos that I took on a camcorder and had then streamed onto an old Power Mac G5 to get them off of tape and onto a hard drive. They worked just fine on the old G5 and I could watch them with no problem. Fast forward through a move and I had backed that old G5 on to first a 500gb brick then on to a drobo and everything seemed just fine.
I moved and got rid of the old G5 after making sure I had all the old files. I went to play them recently on a new Mac Mini and they simply do not work. As I note above, they seem to have had their format removed.
Any help GREATLY appreciated.

I have solved the problem! I used Mediainfo and determined they were .dv files (not a format I was ever familiar with!) which of course just stands for digital video.
I renamed them with .dv and quicktime recognized them.
Thanks for offering help and hopefully this helps someone else.

"The Office for Mac installation did not complete successfully because there was a problem with the installer."

I had Microsoft 2011 installed on my macbook, and my macbook had crashed recently. Luckily I had backed up my drive before. After fixing it i tried to restore my files and when i tried using microsoft office i was given the before mentioned error message. Unfortunately I had misplaced my office box when moving and so I don't have the CD or reg key. I also tried copying the app from my brothers macbook, but i still go the same error message. Is there any alternative way.

Office usually can't be restored intact without a good activation key. The only thing that I can advise is getting in touch with Microsoft to see if they can retrieve the key for you.
When you get the key, you can download a digital, dmg file of Office.
Good luck,
Clinton
