IShockII-- Will it work on snow leopard?

I have snow leopard, 10.6.2, and I just ordered a game controller called the iShockII-http://www.macally.com/EN/Product/ArticleShow.asp?ArticleID=114
It said that it is compatible with Panther. If it works with Panther, will it work with Snow Leopard?
Thanks,
Steven

Hi Steven and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Sorry to say Panther is an outdated version of the Mac OS X. The game controller is not compatible with Snow Leopard.
Actually 10.2 which they indicate works, is Jaguar, not Panther. That goes back to 2002.
Anytime you purchase 3rd party software or hardware to use on a Mac, check the site first for "system requirements" for compatibiity.
If you try to use outdated hardware with your Mac, you could experience kernel panics.

CS4 will not work with Snow Leopard

Does anyone know what the problem is? I have been reading on other message boards about CS4 programs crashing. I can't even get mine to open. Does anyone know a fix or something that can help?

Hi, I've got the CS4 Master Collection running at home on a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard.
Here is my report:
*Adobe Acrobat Pro* - is working perfectly.
*Adobe After Effects* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Bridge* - WILL NOT OPEN - Use Bridge CS3 if you have it.
*Adobe Contribute* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Device Central* - Very buggy. - Use Adobe Device Central CS3 if you have it.
*Adobe Dreamweaver* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Dynamic Link* - NO MAC SUPPORT.
*Adobe Encore* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Fireworks* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Flash Professional* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Illustrator* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe InDesign* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe OnLocation* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Photoshop* - is working well; however it also has NO 64-bit support! with no future 64-bit support planned. Sorry.
*Adobe Premiere Pro* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Soundbooth* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
*Adobe Version Cue* - is working well.
*All Adobe CS3 Application are functioning well.*
My suggestion is use CS3 until these bugs are fixed in CS4.
These tests were done on:
Mac Pro (2008)
2 x 2.8GHz Intel Xeon Quad-Core Processors.
6GB 800MHz DDR2 ECC FB-DIMM
1600MHz FSB
Data Path: 64-bit
Address Path: 64-bit
500GB (Startup Disk)
1TB (Bay 2)
512MB GeForce 8800GT
Hope fully you may find this information useful, but definitely check Adobe for updates ASAP
Kind regards,
Peter.

Canon pixma IP4000R will not work with Snow Leopard

After upgrading to Snow Leopard, my Canon IP4000r printer will not work. I have tried both the Canon Printer Drivers 2.3 (my printer is listed) from Apple and the latest printer driver from Canon. There are multiple problems ... the first thing I noticed is that not all of the printer options are available on the print dialog. When I tried to print, I got "fatal::internal error -9660."
It looks like both drivers I've tried so far are CUPS (which is probably why all of the printer options are not supported).
Anyone have any ideas? Other than buying a new printer ...

The driver version provided by Canon is v10.26.x while the update provided by Apple will increase the version to 10.30.3.0. The v10.26 and v10.30 drivers provide all the features that the previous v4.8.3 driver for OS X 10.5 and earlier provided. However the layout for these menus is definitely different.
Also, a lot of user who upgrade from a previous OS X may not realise that the default print dialog is in a minimised view. You need to press the disclosure triangle next to the printer name to get the expanded view.
When I tried to print, I got "fatal::internal error -9660."
I suggest you try a printer reset.
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse
4. Click "Reset printing system ..."
5. Restart your Mac
This will remove your iP4000R print queue but not the printer drivers. So you will only need to add the queue again.
It looks like both drivers I've tried so far are CUPS (which is probably why all of the printer options are not supported).
Yes they are both CUPS by name as they are both made by Canon. But this is not your issue. If you believe that a particular option is not available then please reply with what that is.

Aperture will not work after snow leopard instalation,

Hi,
I have avoided upgrading to Snow Leopard but my children bought me the upgrade for Christmas as they want me to use Face Time. So I did, now aperture will not open and it says contact the originators of the program. I am a pro photographer and all my current work is on Aperture and I have a wedding in two days time and so this is somewhat disturbing as all my post production in done in Aperture. Can anyone help me I have done all the software upgrades etc.....

Are your images files managed in the Aperture Library, or Referenced? Do you have an external disk drive in the configuration, and if so, is it formatted as Mac OS Extended?
If you hold down the Option key while clicking on the Aperture Icon in the Dock, do you get the dialogue that allows choosing between different Aperture Libraries, or even creating a New Library?

Hp Photosmart C7280 all-in-one will not work with Snow leopard

My nephew just installed Snow Leopard on my IMAC 2008. I cannot get to printer to work. I have tried uninstalling the HP software and reinstalling. I have updated the software thru Apple updates. It still won't print or scan any documents.

I would recommend these instructions (they don't hurt anything), however, different circumstances require different solutions.:
Try deleting the printer .plist files and see if that helps.
Go to ~/Library/Preferences and move the following files to the Trash.
com.apple.print.add.plist
com.apple.print.custompresets(your printer manufacture name).plist
com.apple.PrinterProxy.plist
com.apple.PrintingPrefs.plist
Restart your Mac.

Will fcp5 work on snow leopard?

I had Final Cut Pro 5 installed on my laptop and it worked fine for when I was just running leopard, when I upgraded to snow leopard the program would no longer open (I forget when the exact error message was, something on the lines of "can not open, try again").
I removed the program all together and was successfully able to install fcp10 and run it. I'm not a fan of 10 and when I removed it and tried to reinstall 5.When I try to reinstall all I get an error right away saying the computer does not meet the requirements (the only thing that has changed since the last install would be the newer OS).
Basiclly I'm just wondering if there is anyway to get fcp5 running again without downgrading the OS back to leopard.

FCP 5 was written for PPC processor Macs. It is not compatible with Intel processor Macs. You need FCP 5.1 or higher to work properly on your MacBook.
FCP 5.1 was known as the "universal version" meaning it was written for both PPC and Intel Macs; the first version to do so.

Safari will not work after Snow Leopard Install

Safari does not work. It opens briefly, then closes. I get a message to "click reopen to open application again," but the same thing happens. Please advise.

Janice,
Quit Safari if it's open.
Locate this file. com.apple.safari.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Launch Safari. If it launches without crashing, then that .plist file is corrupted. Drag it to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.
If Safari still crashes...
Go to ~/Library/Caches/Safari and delete all the sub-folders within that one.
Go to /Users/YourName/Library/Safari and delete Home/Library/Safari and delete any of these files you have there:
Downloads.plist
History.plist
LastSession.plist

Can iwork 09 work with Snow Leopard

If I order iwork 09 will it work with Snow Leopard or do I have to have Lion?

Macy...
You can buy the components of the iWork suite of software individually (Pages / Keynote / Numbers) from the App Store for Snow Leopard v10.6.8
Minimum requirements: Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later

Will an 11-inch MacBook Air work with Snow Leopard?

Will an 11-inch MacBook Air work with Snow Leopard? If yes, can you downgrade from Yosemite to Snow Leopard?

1. For actually booting Snow Leopard, it depends on the model; click here and see what the mimimum OS for yours is.
2. All of them can run Mac OS X 10.6 Server inside a product such as VirtualBox or Parallels Desktop.

I have some OLD software on my Mac Pro. How do I know if it will work with Snow Leopard? Currently I'm using 10.5.8.

I have some OLD software on my Mac Pro. How do I know if it will work with Snow Leopard? Currently I'm using 10.5.8.

Michael Wasley's link (wikidot) is as accurate as any I can find.
It's still wise to check with the vendors' websites for compliance.
Biggest source of problems seems to be printer and scanner drivers.
Appleworks 6.2.9 works fine in SL under Rosetta (note; Rosetta is installed by default in Leopard - in SL you may have to select it from the optional installations).
Check particularly with Adobe products; some you'd think should work ok suddenly don't.

Will the bash fix for Lion work on Snow Leopard?

Will the bash fix for Lion that fixes a security flaw in the bash UNIX shell, work on Snow Leopard?
OS X bash Update 1.0 - OS X Lion

I agree. When I tried using symlinks to send calls to bash & sh to tcsh instead, I found a lot of broken shell scripts. I don't think tcsh has been maintained very well since it's use with OS X 10.0 through 10.2. I had better luck with xsh, though.
This is what I used for a day or so with Mavericks:
sudo mv /bin/bash /bin/bash.bak
sudo mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.bak
sudo ln -s /bin/zsh /bin/sh
sudo ln -s /bin/zsh /bin/bash

App Store Pages no longer works on Snow Leopard after upgrade

I bought Pages (and Numbers and Keynote) from the App Store last summer. I have been using it on Snow Leopard (10.6.8) with no problems up until a few weeks ago. Since then I must have told the App Store application to update all applications with updates (though I don't particularly remember doing that), and now when I attempt to open Pages I get a dialog box saying "You can't use this version of the application Pages.app with this version of Mac OS X. You have Mac OS X 10.6.8. The application requires Mac OS X 10.7.4". This is outrageous. How can a routine update of a App Store app stop it from working without any kind of warning? How do I revert to a version that will work on Snow Leopard? Don't just tell me that Pages isn't supported on Snow Leopard, because the version I bought last summer has been working just fine. Am I supposed to Google through pages and pages of information looking for warnings before I upgrade each application before updating? (I also own Aperture.) And what if I make a mistake and accidentally upgrade to a version that no longer works?

Which version of Pages 09 do you have? You don't need higher version than 4.0.4 on Snow Leopatd. Here you can download the iWork 9.0.4 update.

Brother MFC 9700 and Canon i960 will not print under Snow Leopard

After checking the compatibility documentation which indicated that the above printers had drivers which would work w/Snow Leopard, I upgraded to10.6. Now neither printer will work i.e. the document goes into the print queue but won't print. I've unplugged/disconnected the printers and re-installed the drivers from the respective manufacturers web pages. I've checked the forum and couldn't find any info. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Hello Scott.
I suggest you try resetting the printing system, if you haven't done so already.
*How to Reset the Printing System*
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse (or right click if supported).
4. Click "Reset printing system ..."
5. Restart your Mac
This will remove your printer queues but not your printers drivers. So you will need to add your printer queues again.

My iMac will not boot through Snow Leopard but will boot through Windows OS

My 2010 iMac will not boot in Snow Leopard, only Windows. Have tried reinstalling Snow leopard a few times and works only for a couple of minutes before freezing and doesnt reboot. Windows works perfect. Snow leopard just doesnt want to boot up past the Apple Logo. It was working fine one day and the next day it froze up and was able to reboot back into Snow Leopard but kept freezing. Now it doesnt load at all into Mac OS.

Possible scenarios:
1: The 10.6.3 SL retail disk is bad, it happens.
2: Your not using the 10.6.3 SL retail disk but one from another machine which doesn't have the drivers for that machine.
3: Your optical drive is funky or some other hardware issues.
4: Your trying to install 10.6 onto a PowerPC based Mac, no can do.
5: Your not using a wired keyboard for boot key commands, have some other hardware conflicts.
Possible solutions.
1: Copy the SL 10.6.3 disk using Disk Utility to another DVD, the error checking may resolve the original disk's issue.
http://www.brokenhomeboy.co.uk/pierow/blog/2011/10/make-a-bootable-backup-snow-l eopard-install-disc/
2: Make a SL bootable USB
http://www.maciverse.com/install-os-x-snow-leopard-from-usb-flash-drive.html
3: Call Apple for a new 10.6.3 disk (and make copies for backup before Apple discontinues selling it)
If your upgrading to 10.6 to get to 10.6.8 to upgrade to 10.7, be warned of this:
1: Your 10.5 software will not work in 10.7, no more Rosetta or PPC based code.
2: Your hardware will not qualify if it's a 32 bit Intel Core Duo, also you may experience slowdowns in performance over 10.6 (10.6 is the fastest OS X version for Intel Macs) in older Intel hardware (I suggest Early 2011 Mac's and later only for Lion)
3: Mountain Lion 10.8 is reportingly coming out this summer and will not run on a lot of older Intel based Mac's because of heftier graphics requirements.
4: 10.6 has the widest range of current avaialble software and drivers for third party hardware.
My advice, stick with 10.6.8 and stay there, buy a new Mountain Lion machine after this summer. Skip Lion completely.
