Is there tech support for snow leopard

I'm trying to install windows 7 using boot camp.  i'm a little discouraged.  I've been waiting for about 40 hours for an answer to this question
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15218517#15218517
and have not gotten one yet.  I'm afraid I won't get one.  The nearest genius bar is an hour away so I'm not keen on spending two hours plus about 10$ in gas to solve this problem. 
Do I get complimentary tech support with snow leopard.  It doesn't look like i do but i want to be sure.

You get a certain amount (I forget how much) of free tech support with a new machine.  Not with the purchase of Snow Leopard.  If you have paid for Apple Care, then you can call them for free, otherwise you have to pay for phone support.  Driving to the Apple Store would be cheaper, probably.

  • Is there Tech Support for ITunes?

    Is there tech support somewhere for ITunes or are the discussion lists it?

    Thank you! Actually someone already answered my questions. I thought ITunes was the place to go to buy music videos and audios for handheld devices, but I was wrong apparently! It's only for IPODS and for watching/listening on the PC.
    I wanted music videos for my PDA (uses Windows Media Player) and music audios (MP3s?) for my phone, and I thought I could buy them here.
    I didn't realize that ITunes was it's own little Apple prison where music videos and songs have to remain - and in a format that my devices won't play.
    I don't want to sit and watch them on my PC -- I want to take them with me on my PDA and my phone.
    I suppose I will have to make my own.

  • Apple support for Snow Leopard

    Is it true that Apple will stop supporting/updating Snow Leopard when Mountain Lion ships?  I've been told they only support the previous OS.

    I agree with you I have several G4 and two G5 imacs one of which died due to bad capacitors.
    When I lost BBC ipayer i was gutted and I don't know why.
    I wrote to the BBC who could only suggest an unsupported and none Apple bug fix from a man in Texas.
    I also was disappointed when one of my machines ate my 10 x user OSX PPC install disk and the replacement install DVD apple sent didn't work.
    That was a waste of £30 
    I even wonder what will happen when I next try and install an OSX system on my PPCs and ask it to update.
    The issues is these machines used to work well so why have all the updates made them redundant

  • Canon Support for Snow Leopard

    Canon has posted their support schedule for Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) for their consumer printers.
    http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/8200620400.html
    It looks like if your product is a few years old then it is not advisable to purchase 10.6, or be ready to buy a new printer.
    As for their business products, such as the imageRUNNER series, none of the current Canon printer drivers work on 10.6. Having been involved with the 10.6 seed testing I found that while the drivers appear to install okay, the creation of a network printer queue fails. This occurred with the following drivers.
    CUPS PS v2.11
    PS v1.81
    UFR2 v1.80
    Fax v2.20
    So if you feel the need to update, then beware.
    If your Canon device supports PostScript, then you can use either the Generic PostScript included with 10.6 or install the Canon PPDs so that you get some finishing options.
    If your Canon device only supports a Canon proprietary protocol, such as UFR2, CAPT or GARO, then there is currently no solution for them with Mac OS X 10.6.
    Pahu

    if you have a PPC only driver, it is like for a printer that is 5, 6 or 10 years old.
    LOL, nobody using Mac OS X is using drivers 10 years old. Mac OS X didn't exist ten years ago! I also wouldn't make such an assumption, given how many different printer companies are out there and how much skanky software I've seen from them. (Once, I downloaded a Canon driver that was an installer on a .dmg that was both zipped and stuffed, and the installer installed an installer that installed the driver. Absolute foolishness!)
    Maybe you should go to your fav web site and get a new $79 model that is 4x the speed and 2x the resolution.
    People who are using old printers with old drivers are unlikely to be using old, cheap printers.

  • TRIM support for Snow Leopard!

    All of you Mac Pro/SSD owners might want to give this thread a look-see!
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1125400
    Very neat. Nice simple GUI to enable TRIM on TRIM-supporting SSDs under Snow Leopard.

    As for using hacked ktext, there can be trouble booting which you should know about first.
    As a reminder, TRIM will keep the writing performances of you SSD high. without it, the writing performances decrease rapidly, most notably for the data transfer rate.
    [Update] Some members had problem when rebooting the system.
    How to activate TRIM on any SSD

  • Is there going to be Nikon d7100 Raw Support on Snow Leopard?

    Hi, i just bought a Nikon d7100 and I realized that I cannot see RAW files in Aperture when running Snow Leopard
    OK, i understand that I can upgrade to Mountain Lion to solve the problem by using the RAW support released a few months ago or use other s/w than Aperture but I would rather not.
    So, does anyone know if Apple has plans to support the camera to be used in Aperture on Snow Leopard?

    Very doubtful there will be anymore support updates for Snow Leopard v10.6.8, security update possibly.
    If you are thinking of upgrading to Mountain Lion, make sure Mac meets the requiremetns Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.

    I have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion with Safari Version 5.0.5. Now I can not update to Safari 5.1. There is no update in the Software Updater, and on the apple-download page, I only found a Safari 5.1 for Snow Leopard. When executing it, there is an error message, that it is for 10.6 only.
    It seems that I should have first updated Safari, and then only to Lion, which I didn't. Any idea how I can fix this now without having to rollback to Snow Leopard, update Safari and then go back to Lion?

    Try this Safari5.1 from the installer package

    The download worked better with Firefox not sure why. At the bottom of the page after the captcha>> slow down load is the Free link,  it took about 4 minutes to download on my test.

  • Is there a working version of xcode for snow leopard out there?

    I downloaded v 4.2 from developer.apple and when I try to install it on my computer it says "unknown installation error occurred" and "you may want to contact the software manufacturer."  It doesn't give me anything else...
    Similarily, I used adobe flash pro to build my .ipa file and am curious if I even need xcode - is there a working version of Application Loader for Snow Leopard available for download?
    Thanks a bunch.

    I need to upload my .ipa file to itunes connect... 
    I have an older mac with snow leopard 10.6.8 and an old version of Xcode (3.2), but no Application Loader to load my .ipa to itunes connect.  The Application Loader you can download in itunes connect requres OS 10.7 or higher, and I I can't upgrade my OS without increasing RAM.

  • I've paid $ 3,99 for Xcode for Snow Leopard. Now there is a new Xcode for Lion, so I downloaded the new one but the installed continued to be the old one. Now App Store says "Installed" and don't allow me to re-download Xcode. How can I proceed?

    I've paid $ 3,99 for Xcode for Snow Leopard 12 days ago. After installing Lion I saw there is a new FREE Xcode for it, so I downloaded the new one but after installing automatically Xcode for Lion the Developer folder contained the old one. I deleted the old Xcode but the App Store says "Installed" and don't allow me re-download Xcode.
    How can I proceed? I'm guessing whether this problem will occur each time I buy an application from App Store.

    Yes, that's righ, Xcode installer was in the Apps folder. I assumed it had been automatically installed and the installer deleted after installation (the same way as Lion is installed).
    I tried also the procedure for redownloding applications, and MAS showed both Xcodes (Lion and Snow Leopard) and OS X Lion. We see that buttons for Lion and Xcode for Snow Leopard say 'Install' but Xcode for Lion says 'installed' because there is an Install Scode in the Apps folder.
    Thank you.

  • I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
    Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
    If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

    If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:
    http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/24/free-snow-leopard-discs-for-mobileme-users-n ow-arriving/
    Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using.

  • Is there a stand along application for Pages that I can download for Snow Leopard?

    Is there a stand along application for Pages (that's not part of iWork) that I can download for Snow Leopard?

    Go to the Mac App Store and search for Pages.  That is the only source of a stand alone version, but it requires 10.7, so it does not appear to be possible.

  • Is there a 12/23/2014 security update for Snow Leopard.  Does it need one?

    Is there a 12/23/2014 security update for Snow Leopard?   Does it need one?  

    The ntp-4.2.8 folder that's created when you download the /ntp-4.2.8.tar.gz file and unzip it. Inside it are subfolders, such as clockstuff w/propdelay.o and libntp w/a_md5encrypt.o, assertions.o, atoint.o, etc. Many .o files abound.
    OK, but this isn't .o, it's -o. I don't know of any file extension that uses the - hyphen. Are there any?
    Anyway, at the end of flatsixracer's instructions, for sudo ntpd --version, he wrote, "(should now be: ntpd [email protected])" So, since he gets that when running the update, I'm thinking this can go either way, with or without the -o, and be normal.

  • Is there any driver Konica Minolta Di2510f for Snow leopard?

    Is there any driver Konica Minolta Di2510f for Snow leopard?

    You have a very old printer. The lastest driver I saw was one for Tiger. Whether it works in Snow Leopard?
    Are you able to physically attach the printer to your Mac (unknown), because being very old, it may not even be able to plug into it. Most modern Macs require USB.
    The link I found, though I don't think the software would be all that useful.
