Is it possible to install OS X Tiger onto the latest iMac 24" 2.8GHz?

I just bought an iMac 24" 2.8GHz, the latest model released this year.
It came with 10.5.2.
I am wondering if I can install 10.4.x on this machine because I have to use Xcode 2.x for some reason.
10.5 requires XCode 3.x.
Thank you for your comments in advance.

That is what i am guessing but i was just wondering if there is any work-around.
The older OS won't have the proper software for the componentes in the newer iMac. For example, it won't necessarily be able to control the iMac's fans. And things like that.
This is a bit techy situation and more like developer side issue but...
Since the previous Xcode 2.4x should be used for some reason(which does not run on Leopard)
My suggestion would be to get a free ADC membership from the developer site, log in, and look at the developement tools page. Scroll down and get Xcode 2.5. That can be used on Leopard, and might be close enough to 2.4.x to work for you. If you have to compile for Tiger, make sure you install the Tiger SDK, too, from the cross development category in the installer.

  • Is it possible to install Tiger onto my old iMac G3 ?

    I would like to install Tiger onto my old iMac G3 and give it to my grandson. The iMac is presently running Mac OS 9.1 and has 320 mgs RAM and 6 GIG hard drive. The processor speed is 350 MHz. Is this possible ?
    Can I use the Tiger OS disks that came with my new G5 or do I have to buy another Mac OS Tiger specifically for iMacs ?
    I don't mind buying some more RAM if the above is possible - it is a lovely little machine and runs perfectly right now - I hate just dumping it! Grateful for any help, thanks, Diana.

    I don't know if Apple supports the G3 iMacs for Tiger. You may have to use Xpostfacto in order to install it on it. From what I've heard, performance on a 350MHz G3 with Tiger should be adequate. You might have to update your iMac's firmware before installing it, though.
    Upgrading the hard drive will help some. Plus, I would suggest you get the memory up to at least 512MB. I'm pretty sure your model iMac will take up to 1GB via 2 PC100 slots.

    Is it possible to Install Oracle Apps without having the user in a group dbaI would say no, as the dba group is required to do the database administration tasks.
    What is the point of not using the dba group? Any specific reason?

    Also, I had to install the software twice on my same computer before because I had to reboot the computer. I don't know if this affects the limit.

    You are allowed to have two activated installations so there should not be a problem having working installations on the two machines.  If by chance you have somehow tied up two activations for the one machine you can have Adobe support help resolve that thru chat.

    iphone 3g ios 4.2.1 want ios 5 is this possible itunes says 4.2.1 is the latest for me

    iOS 3 is a better OS than iOS 4 for 3G.
    iOS 4 for 3G is for you to suffer and buy an iPhone 4. iOS was designed for iPhone 4 technically and commercialy.
    There are places on the web with detailed instructions on how to downgrade from iOS 4 to iOS 3.

  • IDVD HD 6 install on the latest iMacs?

    At present I have a 2008 iMac and I'm about to purchase one of the latest iMacs (Mountain Lion).  I want to continue using iMovie HD 6 but not sure if it can be transferred to & used on the new iMac.  I had a reply to one of my posts in discussions that it will work but I can't find the reply in the 'My Stuff' of my account or remember who the reply came from.
    Can someone please give me confirmation about this and how to do it?  Thanks.

    Yes, it is definitely said to work, but you may have to install it from your original iLife 6 disk.
    If you new iMac includes iMovie 11, you can have both:
    Happily this is easily achieved, but it has to be done backwards.
    Delete iMovie 11 (just drag it to the trash). Now install iMovie 6 from the iLife 6 install disks. Update it to iMovie 6.0.3.
    Now re-install iMovie 11. This automatically moves iMovie 6 into a folder it creates in your Applications folder called iMovie Previous Version.
    Then reinstall iMovie 11.
    iMovie 6 works great with iDVD 7.
    Now you have them both, and you can have both in the Dock as well.
    Alternatively you could try this method, suggested by poster Uitech:
    Open a terminal and type "touch /Library/Preferences/com.apple.iLife011.plist"
    (No quotes)
    Install iMovieHD6 from the iLife 6 install disk.
    This works with both Leopard and Snow Leopard Macs.

  • How do I download and install Firefox 6 instead of the latest version (I'm currently running 3.6.23)?

    I don't want to update to the very latest version of Firefox because I'm using a Learning Management System for my online master's program that doesn't currently ensure compatibility with the latest version of Firefox. It only ensures compatibility up to Firefox 6 right now. How do I download and install Firefox 6 instead of the latest version? I'm currently running Firefox 3.6.23.

    Firefox 6 is no longer supported and the usage of such versions that have known security vulnerabilities is not recommended.
    You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.

  • It 'possible that Logic 9 is incompatible with the latest update to lion 10.7.5?

    It 'possible that Logic 9 is incompatible with the latest update to lion 10.7.5?

    Where can I find the "All Images" list?  When I go to Finder - Pictures there is nothing there (just the new iPhoto library that is empty).  They are not in the "All My Files" folder nor the Trash. Though, when they were in iPhoto previously, I could never see them in the "All My Files" folder, either - which I thought was weird.  Thanks again for your support.

  • Is it possible to install OS 10.4.5 on an iMac?

    I recently bought a Mac Book Pro that came with Mac OS 10.4.5. I also have an old iMac desktop, which is running OS 10.2.8. Is it possible to install Tiger on the iMac? I've tried it but it doesn't seem to work.
    Any help welcome.
    Thanks

    Welcome To Discussions Hanskundnani!
    Some additional info.
    Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
    If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can also be purchased rather inexpensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, AppleRescue, FastMac, etc.
    As already posted, be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
    The disc should look like the image in the above links.

  • Possible to Install Logic 9 Content onto Another Drive?

    I am using a small 60GB SSD drive, but I also have a larger drive inside the Mac. is it possible to install the additional content onto another drive? Otherwise I won't be able to use Logic 9 at all. Lame. :-(
    Thanks in adva

    I have the install DVD's but it only allows me to install the apple sound effects to the other drive. Believe it or not, I have now attempted to download it from the app store because it's smaller. I've seen some posts on YouTube about moving the files and I might try their techniques but I'm at a loss as to what to do.

  • Is it possible to install 6 and 7 at the same time?

    Regardin this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1308255
    I'd like to try to install 7 again, but I want to keep 6 going in case 7 still won't work. Is that possible?

    Installing iTunes 7 will uninstall iTunes 6 so you can't have the two version working together.
    However you can get old versions of iTunes from FileHippo, so you could remove iTunes 7 and put back 6.
    http://filehippo.com/download_itunes/
    If you are thinking of doing this make sure you make a copy of iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music library.xml which are in the iTunes folder - the libraries are not backward compatible. iTunes should be closed when you do this.
    Although a backup copy of the library should be made when you upgrade, it is best to be safe.

  • Is it possible to install a single component from the install dvd?

    My install went very well, however the only problem is that the colorsync utility will  not launch. I would rather not do a complete reinstall of the entire system... ( particularly because of my shrinking HD). Can I do this?
    Thanks in advance, Carl

    Carl, you could try a couple things that may solve your problem.
    1) Run "Repair Disk Permissions" using Disk Utility which is found in your UTILITIES folder inside your Application folder.
    2) Startup your computer holding down the SHIFT key. Wait for the computer to startup completely, then restart again.
    3) Find your ColorSync preferences and trash them. Perhaps a corrupt preference file is not allowing you to launch the app.
    Good luck!
