Is there an update available for an IMac G3 with OS X running 10.3.9

I have an old IMac GE running OS X ver. 10.3.9 build 7w98. Are there updates for this OS or should I and can I update to a newer OS?

G3 iMacs with tray-loading optical drives, and slot-loaders with 350 mHz processors max out at OS 10.3.9. If it has a 400mHz or faster processor, it will support up to OS 10.4.11 "Tiger." However, you may need more RAM for effective performance. Models taht supoprt Tiger can handle up to 1GB RAM; for most people 512MB RAM will run Tiger fine on a G3.
So this boils down to the question, "Which iMac do you have?" Probably the easiest way with an older Mac is to use this website's tool that translates a serial number to a model name:
http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/
If you do not want to enter your serial number there are other identifiers you can use. They are explained on that page.
True retail install versions of Mac software like Tiger are still in high demand. As Apple no longer sells old OS versions, you are at the mercy of the open market and some copies may cost 2-4 times the current value of a G3 iMac, so be forewarned.

If possible you need to Upgrade your current OS X to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

Other countries...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes...
You should now be able to Sync your phone.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

I purchased Creative Suite 5.5 two years ago and never installed it. Can I now load this on either a new Mac or PC? Will there be updates available for this software?

I purchased an upgrade version of Creative Suite 5.5 two years ago, but never installed it on my PC. I plan to purchase either a new Mac or PC soon. Will I be able to load this upgrade 5.5 on my new computer and get existing updates?

You will have to install it on the same type of platform for which you originally purchased it... Windows or Mac... suites are platform specific, and CS5.5 is not eligible for a platform swap. Whatever updates exist for CS5.5 will be available to you, but it is not likely that there will be more produced.

Is there Java API available for third-party integrations with SCCM 2012? I went through the "Developer's Survival Guide", and it seems that SCCM 2012 SDKs only support C# and PowerShell

Hi All,<o:p></o:p>
My team and I are developing a software using java that works closely with IT management software such as SCCM. Our software will be highly dependent on data stored in SCCM. Basically
our software will talk to SCCM to get information about a system managed by SCCM. To be able to do that, our software needs to use a java API that talks to SCCM. Is there a java API for SCCM 2012 that we can use? If there is not, what is the work around to
this issue (integrate a java project with SCCM SDKs)? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!<o:p></o:p>

Hi,
As you mentioned, it seems that there is no available Java API for SCCM .
Just curious, what's information you want to get from SCCM.
Based on my experience, you could query the SCCM site database to get almost all the information.
Otherwise, your question seems to be related to SCCM 2012. You may also choose to post there to get more effictive help.

are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this

Is there any updates available for Acrobat 7.0 to be used with Vista?

It seems to be an uncompatibilty with Vista that I acquired yesterday. No problem with XP but struggling with Vista. A guy in Dublin over the phone (when I registered the product) said it was not compatible and that is it. No solution he was aware of. The message given as a code error is 93: -2 or a window appears in Acrobat saying:
HKCMD.EXE and IGFXTRAY.EXE - BAD IMAGE
C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/IGFXRES.DLL IS EITHER NOT DESIGNED TO RUN ON WINDOWS OR IT CONTAINS AN ERROR.
The suggestion is to desinstal and reinstall software. I have tried this but still the same problem. I have tried so many times that I could not activate the software automatically over the internet - so called this guy in Dublin...
I reckon that the suggested update to Acrobat 7.0.1 is not good as when installed, repeated error messages come up! I am reluctant to try to download it again just to try because I am scared that I will have to call Dublin again to activate the software...
Any suggestion on the above?
Thanks guys.

Starting here http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
You could click the individual update links to read the descriptions of what is included in each update
The current version 9 is designed for Vista (as well as XP)
As far as I know, version 8 would work with Vista AFTER you applied the updates

How can i update my old 2006 iMac Intel core 2 duo running 10.6.8 to OSX Lion so that I can sync using iCloud with my newer devices? Mountain Lion is not an option for my older model and Lion is no longer available at App store.

Call Apple's online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).

I have a hard time understanding why I can't contact support about THEIR problem. I plugged my iPhone into my pc. iTunes came up. It said there was an update available for the phone. I accepted that. Clicked on the "download only" because I didn't have the time to install it at that point. It downloaded but didn't stop. It continued to the 'backing up your iPhone' segment then froze. I waited at least an hour with no change. Finally I unplugged my phone..iTunes wasn't responding.I rebooted my pc then tried the same thing again. Same outcome even though I let it "Back Up" for 7-8 hrs while I slept. Same Story............... iTunes 10.4.0.80 is the software I'm using. When my phone is 'plugged' in what I see on it's face is "Sync in Progress".....for hours!

It is the same installer. You can run it as 30-days trial (CC version) and decide later for CC or stand-alone. To license as stand-alone, follow this guide.
If you already have the LR6 license key, you can enter it during setup and do not need to follow the guide.

HT4623 Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

- The 2G iPod can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. It does not have the hardware to support a higher iOS version.
- Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
- You can only download the current version from the App store.

HT1688 I just tried to install the latest software update for an iPhone 5, and now the phone is stuck in recovery mode. Are there any options available to avoid going through with the recovery. This seems really lame.

No.
You must restore.

Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and download Mavericks from the Mac App Store.

I currently have Iphoto v. 9.1.4. There is an update v. 9.4.3 that I am unable to install. I keep getting a message, "you have updates available for other accounts. To update this application, sign into the account you used to purchase it."

I have iPhoto v 9.1.4. Update available is 9.4.3. I keep getting this message: "You have updates available for other accounts. To update this application, sign into the account you used to purchase it". I have done this and I keep getting the same message over and over again. Please help me!

Please try each of the following steps you haven't already taken, until the issue is resolved. After each step, relaunch the App Store and try again.
1. Follow the instructions in this Apple Support article.
2. If any App Store purchases were made under a different Apple ID, or if the bundled iLife applications were accepted under a different ID, sign in to the App Store with that ID to update.
3. Alternatively, delete the probem applications and re-download them with the ID you're using now. If you haven't already purchased them with that ID, you'll have to do that first, because purchases can't be transferred from one account to another.
4. Select the Purchased tab in the App Store window. If you see an item in the list marked "You have 3 apps to accept," click Accept.
5. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu. A Finder window may open with a file selected. If it does, delete the selected file. You may be prompted for your login password.
Then repeat step 4.
6. Select
Store ▹ View My Account
from the App Store menu bar, then select View hidden purchases. If you're trying to update any hidden purchases, unhide them.
7. Launch iTunes and select
Store ▹ Authorize This Computer
from the menu bar.
8. If you've moved any App Store apps out of the Applications folder, or into a subfolder, put them back. Never move or copy those applications. If you have backup copies of the apps on another volume, unmount it and try to update again.
9. Contact Account and Billing Support.
