L/R 2 - Snow Leopard - "Jams": Re-start req'd. - when using Adj. Brush
When using the Adjustment Brush, in L/R2, quite often L/R jams up (spinning beach ball) & requires a re-start. ALL editing previously done to that photo disappears and thus the photo needs to be re-edited from the beginning. (Annoying). Also ALL adjustment sliders move erratically, in a "jerky" fashion, resulting is sudden adjustments being made to the photo, as well. These issues only appeared after Snow Leopard installed. Each photo I normally edit, (in RAW) is around 20-25Mb. It seems as though Snow leopard is the issue here, but are is there anyone else out there that have experienced this issue and does anyone have a solution. I use a Power Mac and normally do not have issues with memory, etc. I have been told that my Video Card is OK, being a 512Mb Nividia, running : 1 x 30", plus: 1 x 26" NEC Monitors. Any advice or assistance welcomed. Cheers. Hyrom Jones.
Thanks Ian, your info was useful.
I was opening L/R in 32 bit mode and not 64, as you suggested. That change appeared to assist. The sliders for the "clarity" settings as well as other sliders move a little more smoothly, even though you cannot rush them, but that is not what editing is all about. Overall, an improvement appears relevant.
I am running Mac O/S 10.6.2 and have previously "optimised" the L/R catalog.
Speaking about catalogs with L/R, is it necessary to keep all the previous catalogs that have been "backed up over time, or can I delete those previous ones, to save disk space. ??? Your comments appreciated.
I have some Catalogs going back to late 2007, which I do not think the L/R uses anymore. I normally back up my catalog after edting a Shoot, but usually do not back it up during that editing process. Some of my shoots have around 500 to 600 photos, so as you can see my editing processes are normally quite lengthy, at least a week or so.
Last Question: I transfer some of my images to Photoshop CS4 for additional editing, I noticed that I have the option of starting photoshop, using "rosetta". Can you briefly describe to me what "rosetta" is and means ??? and whether it would be any advantage for me to start P/S in that mode. I transfer images from L/R to P/S, by "right clicking" on the image in L/R and selecting the "edit in P/S" command.
As always, your comments are welcomed and appreciated. Cheers. Hyrom.

After having upgraded my MacBook to Snow Leopard, the following error message pops when I try to access iTunes: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a new version of iTunes". So, now after the upgrade, I cannot access iTunes. How do I resolve this??
Thankszepel has it, but perhaps some more detail will help.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

How can I install Snow Leopard on my 15" MacBook Pro without using its DVD drive?
How can I install Snow Leopard on my 15" MacBook Pro without using its DVD drive?
I'm assuming your dvd drive is broken? if you have a thumb drive large enough (8GB or better), you can use another computer to make a bootable image from the install dvd to the thumb drive. then you can install from the the thumb drive.

I want to install Snow Leopard Server on our MacPro(2.66) using Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server disks? I kept getting an error for backwards compatibility. Is this possible or do I need topurchase another copy of Snow Leopard Server?
The OS disks that are shipped with a particular product
are set up so that tey will only install on that product.
It will install on any Mini of that exact vintage, but that
is all.
This is to prevent people from doing exactly what you
are trying to do. The license for OSX shipped with any
is only valid for that product. Also, Snow Leopard,
including Server, is only permitted to be run on one
computer at a time. Bottom line, unlike Lion, legally
you cannot install the same copy on multiple
computers unless some "family pack" or site license
is purchased.
Yes, you need to purchase another copy.
The copy of Snow Leopard license is here:

I have a macbook purchased in 2009. I just purchased a new ipod and am in a loop of updates that seems to have no end. Do I need snow leopard? Will that then let me use the latest itune update?
You need to buy Snow Leopard from the online Apple Store. You don't need Mountain Lion.

Cannot download OSX Maverick? My current system is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and even when logged into the app store I'm getting the message that I can not download at this time. Try Later?
Are you connected via wifi? If so, and it is an option, try connecting using a ethernet cable. It sometimes seems to help as it can give a more reliable connection for the 5.3gb download.
If you do manage to download it you may want to make a copy of the installer file - which gets downloaded to the Applications folder - before running it as it self-deletes on successful installation. It may save you another monster download in the future. -
I just upgraded OS from 10.4.1 to Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Now when I tried to open Reason 4 it asks for me to insert a disc and prompts me to enter my ID for permission. What can I do?
First off, you can't have upgraded from 10.4.1, as that won't run on a MacBook. 10.4.4 is minimum. 10.4.10, and 10.4.11 are different from 10.4.1.
Secondly, it appears Reason 4.0.1 is needed for 10.6:

There may be other upgrades on:

Check with the developers in question if they are aware of any bugs in the upgrade process. -

HT201364 If I upgrade to Mavericks from Snow Leopard will I still be able to use Microsoft office??
If I upgrade to Mavericks from Snow Leopard will I still be able to use Microsoft office??
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Only if you have Office 2008 or 2011. Older Office versions are PowerPC apps, so they no longer work with Mavericks.
If you are running Office 2008 or 2011, open any Office app, go to Help menu (in the menu bar) > Check for Updates, and install the latest version.
If you are using an older Office version, uninstall it and install another application:
Upgrade to Office 2008 or 2011 by buying it from the Microsoft website.
Install Apple iWork applications after upgrading to OS X Mavericks.
Install LibreOffice > http://www.libreoffice.org.
Remember to make a backup of your files with Time Machine before upgrading. -
Two days I ago I installed 10.6.8 through Live Update. But, since then, I can't open Snow Leopard! Everytime I got the grey page and the request to reboot turning the Macbook off and then on. I could use Safe Mode, used Utility to repair all the processes and deleted any cache but nothing, tried a procedure of renaming the kernel found on the net and now I can't even open the Safe Mode. I don't even have here my Snow Leopard dvd! What should I do? Called the customer service twice but not that great help. Can I try to use another Snow Leopard dvd (i.e. from a friend of mine)? Should I format the partition and reinstall it? I'm really angry about this, got this Macbook since less than one year and it crashes after an autoupdate, probably forcing me to 700 km x 2 trip to get that dvd (and of course those of any other app I got?!)? Grrr.
... tried a procedure of renaming the kernel found on the net ...
If you've been doing things like that, you probably destroyed your system. You need the installation disc that came with the machine. Another one won't work, unless it's for the same model.
I'm really angry about this, got this Macbook since less than one year and it crashes after an autoupdate ...
It failed to boot because of incompatible third-party system modifications that you installed. We know that, because it started in safe mode. Then, instead of removing the modifications, which would have solved your problem, you did something that immobilized the machine completely. You should not have updated the OS without having an installation disc available, and you shouldn't be using a computer at all without backups. Apple can't protect you from the consequences of making bad choices. -
Bought used iMac, reinstalled snow leopard, stuck at start up screen
I bought a used iMac from someone who has owned it for about a year. He had upgraded to Lion from snow leopard but I wanted to reformat everything back to the original settings(like new) so I could start from scratch. I used the original snow leopard start up discs that came with the machine and held down c when restarting, the installation went fine but when the computer restarted after the installation the apple in the grey screen appeared and the spinning circle at the bottom spun for a few seconds then froze. I let it sit over night thinking it was just taking a while to start up but in the morning it was still on the same screen, nothing had changed. Any idea what the problem is?
-ClemYou have to use Disk Utility to erase the ENTIRE boot drive by selecting the drive makers name on the far left, it will have the disk size too.
You need to do this to erase the 10.7 Recovery and reset the partition map back to 10.6 acceptable version so your 10.6 Disk Utility can repair the drive (and get the machine to boot) and remove the 10.7 EFI partition for 10.6 version.
I suggest you also use the Security Option > Zero all data, not for scrubbing the drive, but also for mapping off any failing sectors.
Reducing bad sectors effect on hard drives
Once 10.6 is installed, setup and Software update until clear.
then install programs, then files and only to 50% of the hard drive if possible for best performance.
don't go over 80% as it can start having issues as it gets near full.
Good Luck, setup a clone and then you can boot from the external clone drive anytime and in seconds.

My iMac G5 was running too slow. I tried everything I could think of or find in the literature, but finally had to start over by reinstalling OX and then Snow Leopard. I lost all my folders and applications, so I used the Migration Assistant on my MacBookPro to copy everything onto the iMac G5. The applications all came through fine, but all of my folders have the "no access" icon on them. I followed the instructions I found on line, but none of my user names worked. What do I do now? Am I just out of luck? The only other alternative I can see is to transfer all my folders onto a thumb drive and put them into the iMac, but that will be slow and cumbersome.
Are you now using a different username from the one you used prior to migrating? If so that is the reason for the problem. You might, then, give this a try:
To fix Home folder permissions
Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed. -
Oct 2014: from Snow Leopard, can you do a clean install using download of OSX10.8?
Hi there,
I'd like to do a clean install from Snow Leopard using the OSX10.8 download from Apple's website. It states there that i must have Snow Leopard already installed to do this, so does that mean it's impossible to do?
I'd appreciate any help on this please.
Thanks for your time,
Richard
MacBook Pro 15", mid 2010 running Snow Leopard 10.6.8, 8gb ram, 500gb HD, Intel Core i7Hi QuickTimeKirk, thanks very much for your prompt reply.
The fact that it's only sold via the App Store with a redemption code - does that mean it's not a full version of Mountain Lion in its own right? It's just an upgrade?
The reason for the 'clean install' is really because part of this whole process is the need to update certain legacy software, and also the machine is starting to show a few unusual behaviours. Nothing too earth shattering, just enough to cause me a bit of grief. So with everything considered i just thought, 'right, time to overhaul the whole system' - what better time to start - repair the HD (if necessary), go through the usual back-up routines and wipe the disk. Hence the decision for a completely clean install.
So, if you happen to know if the Mountain Lion download is a full version that would be great.
Thanks for your help Kirk, it's appreciated, and hope to hear from you soon. Best wishes, Richard -

Gotcha, Bingo, Bazinga!
Moving the antivirus to trash does not delete or disable some parts of the application.
How to remove the remaining parts of the application depends on the application as the different AV-Systems place there parts at different places and use different preference files.
At first check if the AV is still listed in the startup items (System Settings - Accounts - your account - startup items) and remove them from that list.
