Just Bought MacBook...Came with TIGER!? What do I do?

Hi
Against the reccomendations of a poster here, I went ahead and bought a macbook, even tho I knew It wasnt a Santa Rosa.
I just wanted one bad, and I'm find with having 2.16, instead of 2.2 ghz.
BUT... i thought the Leopard disc would come with it.... and it didnt. If I bought this brand new, from an apple reseller...
How do I get leopard? I dont have to buy it do I?

You can find all the information on Apple's Up To Date page.

    You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked.  Plus you have 90 days of FREE phone tech support on top of your standard 1 year warranty unless you also purchased AppleCare which gives you an additional 2 years of coverage plus FREE phone support.
    Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out.  Let Apple deal w/the problems.

    i have just bought macbook air, cant make video calls on skype... why??

    See this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
    If that doesnt pass,
    Suggest looking here, much success has been found:

    so how do I get the same apps for my macbook pro? or is that not possible?
    Not sure if that same Application is designed for Mac Os x, Search for Applications on App Store instead of iTunes on your Macbook Pro, as Applications available on iTunes Store on a Macbook is designed to work only on iOS Device like iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch and whatever is available on App Store on Mac is designed for Mac Os x.

  • I just bought a 2012 with the i5 and 4 gb RAM

    I just bought a 2012 with the i5 and 4 gb RAM. Something is NOT right. Right along side it  -for comparison purposes is my macbookpro -2009  -dula core with the stock 4gb ram.
    The OS is the same  -latest Mtn Lion
    The mac mini is on its knees. With ZERO programs open the RAM available is just 1,100 mb  -with about 6 firefox windows open the sbbod happened ALL the time and the available memory is around 300 mb.
    The mac book pro  -with inferior specs  -right ? -  has the SAME windows etc etc and has 1,900 MB OF AVIALBLE RAM  - HOWVER NO SBBOD!!!!
    The Mini Mac is way to slow...but why? I just bought it 2 days ago  - very dissapointed so far.
    Yes, I know installing 16gb of ram will (may) fix it - but the out of the box expreince is jusy messed up!
    Ideas? Thoughts? Same issue?

    Hi Johnfromoro,
    I'm having the exact same issue as you, my old iMac 2006 seemed more fluent and less laggy/jerky then my new 2.6 GHZ quad core i7 mac mini. If I open a app I get the randbow wheel (yeh nothing else is open) I mean come on a quad core i7 can't open one application fluently?
    I too have experience very high swap files also at a 1GB - this seems very odd considering I had 1.5 GB unused ram left? The applications that ran on my old iMac seemed to work alot smoother, I was expecting with the stats that Apple launched and I read about, that this would eat my old iMac for breakfast but I'm sitting here thinking. "Is this it??" It just lacking the whole sales pitch I was given about 78 % faster here and there!
    Please could you let me know what Apple say about this cause I'm wondering if I too have a faulty machine or is this the "power" the mac mini offers?
    P.S. I ran the disk ultility repair (no improvement), also I time machined all the files/data from my iMac to the new mac mini.
    Kind Regards

  • Reinstall Leopard on Mini that came with Tiger

    I have a Mini that came with Tiger installed just before Leopard came out and I got the disk to update it to Leopard through the up to date program. I updated it to Leopard and have been using this Mini to load and test a lot of different programs.
    I want to re-install Leopard doing a erase and install to start again clean but am wondering if I can do it form the update disk or will I need to install Tiger first and then run the update to Leopard like I did after I received it?

    put in the install disc, and when you're at the screen where you select which disc to install to, click options, and it gives you the option to erase partition and reinstall leopard without needing to upgrade. did i word that confusing? it says that you need v 10.4 *or higher to do the upgrade, BUT if you don't click options and choose the reformat (last option) then it will upgrade and keep your old system folder on the drive. any questions, i'll be checking back at this post.

  • Installing Panther on G4 iBook which came with Tiger

    Anyone help? I want to install Panther on G4 iBook which came with Tiger installed. I've used my iMac Panther disks to install, but although the iBook goes all through the installation process, it won't start up from Panther.

    Lyssa
    Thanks for your reply. I suspected this might be the case but still hope there might be a way round it.
    I want Panther on the iBook first because I prefer it to Tiger. Tiger has some annoying little features - for example, the fact that if you select a whole load of files and Get Info on them you get a separate window for each file - if you want to hide the extensions you have to tick the box in each separate window. In Panther you get a single window applying to all the files - neat! There are various other silly little things like this.
    Second, the versions of Mail in Panther and Tiger are incompatible. If I save an email on the iBook (while away from home, for example) and want to transfer it to one of the mailboxes on my (Panther) iMac, I have to go through the following laborious process:
    1. Save the email on the iBook in Raw Message format. Copy it to the iMac (via a mobile hard drive).
    2. Create a temporary mailbox folder in Mail on the iMac. Close Mail.
    3. Go to Users ... Library/Mail/Mailboxes. Change the extension of the temporary folder from mbox to txt.
    4. Open it (it now opens as an ordinary folder).
    5. Copy the text of the email into the document called mbox.
    6. Close the folder, change its extension back to mbox.
    7. Open Mail again, move the email from the temporary folder into the folder where it belongs.
    8. Delete the temporary folder.
    Ridiculous or what?

    Did you download and install the Windows Support software? If you did, did you use the Boot Camp Control icon to set up the trackpad how you want it?

    You can go strait to SL, all you need is a retail SL DVD available from Apple for $20. The US online store has them at:
