Leopard and mobile me

I have leopard 10.3.9 and can no longer view my .mac mail as I cannot load Safari 3 on my ibook because my software will not support it. Is there any way around this problem?

Greetings,
Leopard is 10.5.4, currently, 10.3.9 is Panther. The iBook may not meet the necessary specs to load Leopard, and you won't be able to use those apps you mentioned with Panther.
Check the specifications and minimum requirements for Leopard before you buy it, if you plan to.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Snow Leopard and GSM Modems (Vodafone)

I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this, but I'd like to share my experience with GSM (GPRS/3G) modems and Mac OS X. The main reason for doing this is the fact that I wasn't able to find any related information for my issues on the web and I think I'm not the only one with those issues. Feel free to post any feedback here
Few months ago I started using a 3G modem with my Macbook Air. The service provider is Vodafone and the modem is incorrectly marketed by Vodafone on the web as a Huawei device (E169), but it is a ZTE K3656-Z modem (I'm not sure if the companies are different or if the hardware is, in fact, different, but the kernel module is definitely different :D).
The first thing that annoyed me is the Vodafone Mobile Connect application. The 'response time' between plugging in the modem and actually getting online is quite big, and I really wanted to get it out of my way. I'm not using any SMS functionality, so from my point of view, the application was totally pointless. When you plug in the modem, it acts as an external CD Drive. If the Vodafone Mobile Connect application is installed, it will automatically eject (unmount) the drive. Unfortunately,
this usually (not all the time, but quite often) generates a crash in diskutil (quite annoying).
But what annoyed me the most, was the fact that, when online, the Vodafone application was taking at least 35% of my CPU. Now, this is unacceptable Under normal load (Safari, Adium), this was quite acceptable. But under slightly higher load, the CPU was getting quite hot, causing the kernel_task to try to slow down the system (and cool down the CPU) by taking about 135% of CPU (according to Activity Monitor) and making the system unusable. Of course, another side effect was the cooler running at 6400 RPM, faster battery drain and generally, making the system quite unusable. My 1st Generation Macbook Air wasn't able to deal with all that
When I first saw the high CPU usage by the Vodafone application, I immediately thought of the old 56Kb WinModems Back then, it was quite a common practice to develop modems that would use the CPU to compress/decompress or process the data/sound in order to make the modem as cheap as possible, but inflicting a huge system slow down - Yes, I'm that old :P
Given that experience with those modems, I figured that the Vodafone application was somehow doing that as a 'user space module' Boy, was I wrong
So, this is what I did: First of all, you need to properly identify the GSM modem. In order to do this (no Terminal involved) is to set up connection using Vodafone Mobile Connect, then using the System Preferences, head over to Network and check the available interfaces (no, this is not a tutorial, but a guide :P ). You should see either a Huawei Modem or ZTEUSBModem/ZTEUSBATPort. Keep in mind the modem you have, then disconnect. At this point, you need to use the Vodafone application to change the PIN settings on your SIM card. Use the application (Preferences -> PIN) and disable PIN check. Now you can safely remove the Vodafone application
The second step is to install the proper modules/drivers/kexts for this. You can either get them from the web (at this point, you already know what modem you have) or you can use the packages located inside the Vodafone Mobile Connect application installer. To do this, simply use 'Show Contents' of the installer, then locate the packages (pkg) inside the Resources folder for your modem (the names are quite clear :P). Install that package and you'll have the modem drivers installed on your system.
Once the modem drivers are installed, when you connect the GSM modem, the external CD Drive will 'mount'. Eject it and wait a little bit (few seconds) until the SIM card is initialized and the modem is available. Go to System Preferences -> Network and add a new interface using ZTEUSBModem (not ZTEUSBATPort). Set it up as a Generic Modem, GPRS Modem and configure it with your provider settings (APN, username, password). Set the dial up number as *99# (you can find a lot of tutorials on the web about setting this up - the tricky part was installing the proper modules and disabling the PIN check). You may now connect.
The downside of this is the fact that you need to manually eject the drive when connecting the modem, otherwise you won't get the modem functionality, no SMS functionality and no PIN security.
The upside is a very quiet system (the fan runs at 2400 RPM as opposed to 6400 RPM), a fast one (I can't see any noticeable slow down at all) and better battery life time.
I'm not sure what is the effect on other systems, but my 1st Generation Macbook Air was totally unusable after few minutes of online time. Now it works perfectly
I really hope that this is useful for other people Feel free to ask any question, I'm aware that my 'tutorial' skills are quite poor :P

Oh, I forgot to mention: This works both on Leopard and Snow Leopard (tested on both systems). I've used the modem drivers located inside the Vodafone Mobile Connect installer (I couldn't find any ZTE modem drivers on the web).

Share "MobileMe" and Mobile Me Icon do nothing to publish

Not sure if this is a Mobile Me error or Iphoto, but this was not always the problem.
When in iPHOTO, I select an album, event, photo, then go to Share->MobileME, it does nothing. I try to select an album, photo, event and click the MobileMe Icon within iPhoto on the right, it does nothing.
I watched the very basic video tutorial, added a new album, clicked the MobileMe Icon, and it has nothing in here to publish the name, etc.
Something is really gone bad with publishing to my MobileMe from iPhoto. On Leopard and latest iPHOTO.

Close iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, open iPhoto and try again.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Snow Leopard and the original MacBook Air?

My original MBA has an Intel graphics chipset. Does anyone know if the upcoming release of Snow Leopard will run on it and just not take advantage of the graphics enhancements?
(I'm pretty sure I read the footprint will be smaller than Leopard and I'm hoping to benefit from that...the 80 GB hard drive is a little tight..otherwise I'm very happy with it)
Thanks.

I have the original MBA version and am running SL. No problems.
Same here, and quite snappy too.

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess

Can I install both Snow Leopard and Windows 7 on the same version of VMWare 5?

Even though I am running Apple OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.3 on my new 2013 iMac, I have just installed VMWare's "Fusion 5" so I can have Windows 7 installed on the "Fusion 5, for limited usage needs.
I also would like to have a running version of Snow Leopard available to run my large collection of original Lynda.com training DVD's and CD's ... which unfortunately, now only allow the Lynda.com GUI player to operate in (and up to) Snow Leopard (at least this is what the Tech folks at Lynda.com have told me).
Since Lynda.com is no longer producing any or their training programs on CD or DVD any longer, and because they have stopped supporting their training programs to run on Lion and above, I will have to have a version of Snow Leopard installed to run these training programs, and still be able to run them using the Lynda.com GUI player.
So here's my dilemma:
1. Can I install both a version of Snow Leopard OS on my "VMWare "Fusion 5" .... along with a running version of Windows 7 on the same "Fusion 5"?
2. Do I install only the Windows 7 on the VMWare, and find some other "device" to run a version of Snow Leopard off of?
3. Do I consider using "BootCamp", in conjunction with "Fusion 5", to get access to both Snow Leopard and Windows 7?
Has anyone had any experience installing BOTH a previous (older) version of Apple OSX ... AND ... a Windows OS version on one installed version of VMWare "Fusion"?
OR
Any suggestions on how to set up having access to both Snow Leopard and Windows 7 .... while keeping OS Mountain Lion as my main OS?

Thanks ... the "You have to purchase Snow Leopard Server" I knew about, and a few days ago I just ordered a copy from the Apple Store:
Snow Leopard Server - Ordered at: 1-800-692-7753 ... OR ... 1-866-254-8313
I asked for Apple Snow Leopard Server (Model MC588Z/A (SLSVR)
"Unlimited Client License"
It was around $25.50 (USD) with sales tax and shipping (NYS).
One thing though ... when you mention: "you should make two virtual machines".
Not being too familiar with "Fusion 5" yet, Is setting up "two machine" all done under one installed version of "Fusion 5"?
Would you have "links" to any "Fusion 5" installation instructions/info for setting up the
"two machines" (one for Snow Leopard and one for Windows 7)?

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion. Then I found out it was not compatible with my HP Printer (HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one) so I called Apple support and the tech told me to erase the hard drive instead of going in the time machine. Well I did that and then it took about three hours three days a week for about three weeks on the phone with an apple tech to get all my stuff back on my computer. I have had trouble with my printer (won't do the scan anymore and wasn't printing on my DVDs. Also the computer keeps freezing up when it is in the sleep mode, etc.
When I tried to list my problem on this forum it lists your OS at the bottom and mine had Mountain Lion listed as what I was using so apparently it didn't erase it. Want to know how to get Mountain Lion off and put my Snow Leopard on so things start working right.

Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

I GIVE UP! Is it possible to uninstall Leopard and go back to Tiger?

I am ready to give up for now. Is it possible to uninstall and go back to Tiger?

If you were wise you would consider other options just besides getting rid of Leopard and throwing it away. First, you could wait until Apple releases OS 10.5.1, then install and update to it. This might help take care of some problems. You could dual boot OS 10.4.10 and 10.5 as long as you have the OS 10.4 full install Disk and the OS 10.5 full install disk. I personally will wait until at least Christmas time before I install Leopard. New OS's are always full of bugs. On the Microsoft side, I've read where Windows Vista is still having major problems and is taking a long time to become widely used. These problems take time to fix. When Windows XP came out nobody would upgrade to it because of all it's bugs, now Windows XP is considered the standard on PCs. Mac OS 10.4 was also full of bugs at first, but now we talk about how rock solid it is. Simply give Apple time to fix these problems.

Leopard and Adobe Photoshop CS2 problems...

I've been reading the posts about Leopard and CS2 problems and have to say that I'm confused. A great many of you have had issues from the very beginning as soon as you upgraded to Leopard. I did not. I use a VERY basic set-up without third party plugins and suspect that to be why I had no problems. At least until now... I looked back through my documents to be sure, and my Photoshop was working beautifully through the first week of January. Somewhere between then and now there had to be an update from Apple that broke Photoshop. I haven't changed any settings since it last worked, and there certainly haven't been any updates from the greedy buggers over at Adobe because they don't support CS2 anymore apparently. What could Apple have updated that might have accidently corrupted my Photoshop?? I don't really feel it could be anything else, but who knows... Does anyone have any ideas? I would hate to have to downgrade to OS 10.4 just to use my Photoshop and I certainly can't afford to shell out the extra $$ for CS3.
I appreciate any light you guys can shed on the topic...
Stan

Actually the 10.5.2 update does seem to have improved things for me with Photoshop CS1. I can now actually type entries into the little boxes for things like crop and brush sizes. The File Browser is still prone to crashing the application though, and there is still some weirdness with opening files by a drag and drop onto the app icon in the Dock. But nothing got worse, and several annoyances disappeared.
One thing to try is to create a brand new admin test user, with no additions (that includes not adding fonts), log into the new account and see if Photoshop will work there.
And speaking of fonts, do you have Linotype's Font Explorer installed? If so, did you get the new updater for it? Some people who use Font Explorer were having a lot of problems after the 10.5.2 update, including Photoshop failure to launch, that were fixed with the Font Explorer update.

In limbo between Leopard and Snow Leopard - stupidly didn't back up

I've got an old-school black MacBook, about four years old now. I never cared enough to upgrade it to Snow Leopard, but now I want Lion. So, I borrowed my parents' five-license Snow Leopard install disc and started off on the journey to upgrade to Snow Leopard, download the App Store update, then download and install Lion. I didn't get far.
First, let me say that I didn't back up my hard drive. Like an idiot. Yes, I know it was stupid, so there's no need to say anything. My previous installs (a few clean re-installs) have gone without a hitch, so I figured I'd trust Apple and just run the installation without backing up. Dumb.
The Snow Leopard installation started fine, but was interrupted when the installer said the install failed. Restart, try again. Booting from the install DVD, things seemed to be going fine a second time around -- picked my language, got to the install set-up screen, picked Macintosh HD as my installation drive. And then things stopped working. The installer said my HD could not be written to and that it needed repair. So I went to Disk Utility to try that. Repair Disk wasn't available, so I clicked Verify Disk. That got interrupted when it said the disk needed to be repaired, after which the Repair Disk button was clickable. Tried to repair, but apparently my HD is screwed beyond the capabilities of Disk Utility.
I tried to reboot the MacBook from the HD, which Disk Utility said still had Leopard running on it. The computer wouldn't boot up. Safe Boot didn't work. So, without any other real options, I thought I'd try my luck by just trying the install again. Booted up from the install DVD, and ran into the same issues. Didn't magically fix itself, of course. So my MacBook is stuck in limbo between Leopard and Snow Leopard, won't boot from the HD and won't let me repair the disk when booted from the DVD. What do I do?
I plan to try a couple third-party disk-utility programs tomorrow (8/25/11) to recover the files on my HD. There's not much I care about on there (just some iPhone photos and my resume, really), so doing a clean wipe of the HD and installing Snow Leopard is an option. But I'd of course rather be able to recover my personal files. Is this possible at this point?
Another question I have regarding a clean wipe: If I end up having to clean off the HD and lose all my data, I'll lose the iTunes configuration for my iPhone. Will iTunes be able to import my apps and settings from my phone if I plug it in?
Thank you very much.

Am using Macbook pro mid 2010 running on OSX 10.9.5. It does not read my old Seagate back up plus ITB ext hard disk which opens and works on snow leopard. The back ups were made on snow leopard and mountain lion. How do I make it work on Mavericks?

I have been making back ups on a Seagate Back up plus drive on a macbook pro running on Mountain lion. Sadly the mac was stolen and all I had was the seagate back up. I tried opening it on my old iMac running on snow leopard and after several visits to this forum managed to open it. The data was safe and sound. Now I have received a hand me down macbook pro which runs on osx 10.9.5. I'm assuming there is a compatability issue as the drive does not come on at all when I hook it up to the usb port. I checked the seagate drive once again on the imac and its light came on on that system. Then I suspected there may be a problem with this macbook pro usb port. But it seemed to work fine when i hooked my camera cord into it. Is it that I must reinstall mavericks. In which case how do I back up before reformatting or reinstalling. BTW I did the command+ R thingy and repaired my internal Hard disc which was showing errors. What do I do next, your help is most appreciated if you have had a similar problem.

Your 2010 MBP would be able to handle Yosemite, but I would strongly suggest that you get the current problem sorted out before trying to upgrade to Yosemite. I'd also recommend another backup that isn't created by Time Machine if you are thinking of upgrading. SuperDuper and CarbonCopyCloner can make bootable clones of hard drives. If you clone your existing system to a fresh external drive, you would be able to boot from that drive and recover quickly in the event that your Yosemite upgrade didn't work out. Time Machine backups are not 100% reliable.
It's possible that, if your internal HD is the one that shipped with your MBP in 2010, it may be failing. If it keeps needing repairs, that is probably a sign that it is approaching the end of its useful life.
Have you run Disk Utility's Repair tool on the external drive as well?
I mentioned the hub because some people have reported here that attaching their USB 3 drives through a USB 2 hub solved some disconnection problems. A good-quality powered USB 2 hub won't cost much.
My most recent brush with random disconnections involved a nice new OWC drive enclosure. I used the cable that came with the drive, but the drive kept disconnecting. Using a different cable solved the problem. You wouldn't expect that what appeared to be a high quality cable would be a problem straight out of the box, but it was.

Jabber and Mobile Connect

Just setup Jabber (9.0.2) on iphone with Mobile Connect (CUCM 7.1.5). I run into incoming call issue where both Jabber & mobile phone would rings about the same time. I did some of research and Cisco doco below state Mobile Connect should automatically inactivated when Jabber is running and connected to the corporate network.
Anyone has this issue or could point me to the right direction?
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/jabber/iPhone/9.0/JABI_BK_J29330BB_00_jabber-for-iphone-admin-guide_chapter_011.html#CJAB_TK_ADA0EB97_00
Add Mobile Connect and Mobile Identity
Mobile Connect, formerly known as Single Number Reach (SNR), allows the native mobile phone number to ring when someone calls the office number while Cisco Jabber is not available.
When Cisco Jabber is running and connected to the corporate network, and thus available to receive VoIP calls, Mobile Connect is automatically inactivated.
The user requires a Mobile Identity to transfer Cisco Jabber VoIP calls to the mobile voice network.

Remote Destinations will always ring, regardless of whether the TCT device is registered or not. A Mobile Identity will not ring when the TCT device is registered to CUCM. This is especially important as you don't want the cellular phone and the wifi phone app contending for the user to click answer on both on the same device. You may still want to use RDP if the user has a home office in addition to their smartphone.

Anyone else having a Problem with Leopard and Photoshop CS3?

I'm using CS3 with Leopard 10.5.4 at work and there are some very aggravating anomalies, that I'd like to nail down to a cause. Most frequently, when switching from apps to P'Shop, the menu bar stays for the previous app, i.e. when going from Finder to P'shop, the menu bar still says Finder and has Finder options. Changing from Lightwave to P'Shop, the menu bar remains Lightwave.
Occasionally, an Adobe app - P'Shop or InDesign - will simply disappear and not come back. The icon in the dock shows it as active, but no amount of clicking, Command-Tabbing will reveal the app and I have to Force Quit, losing unsaved changes.
I have a feeling it's Leopard, since, I've used CS3 on Tiger and CS4 on Tiger and never had a problem.
I'm wondering if upgrading to the latest Leopard would make much of a difference.
Has anyone come across this and found any kind of answers?
Thanks for any suggestions.

> Just because it doesn't happen to Phil (who may not use all of the same features of the Suite that others do anyway) does NOT mean that these problems are not real and are not mere PEBCAK.
Right. If someone is having a problem associated with Tiger, it's PEBAK. If Leopard is involved, it's automatically because of Leopard. Apparently, with Apple's latest OS, trouble shooting problems are no longer necessary - just blame it on Leopard and call it a day.
b FUD
I find the dynamics here really interesting. This thread would have been very different if Vincent had posted with problems involving Tiger. Would have gone something like this:
After admonishing him for not providing more information about his setup by posting the obnoxious big blue link on how to ask questions (ahem - we know NOTHING about his machine or configuration, such as which machine, how much RAM, scratch disk or attached peripherals), there'd be all kinds of trouble shooting advice given - "try a new user", "repair permissions", "run DiskWarrior, and on and on ...
But no, since he mentions Leopard, none of that is apparently necessary and the completely, utterly
b irresponsible
advice is given ... "that's just the way Leopard is".
Those are some serious problems he's reporting that have nothing to do with Leopard. Something is obviously hosed!
As for discounting my experience because I don't use every app in the suite as extensively as I do Photoshop, I'm FAR more qualified to discuss Leopard and CS issues than Ann or Neil who do not use Leopard at all (and have never used it as far as I know.)
"Others have problems with it", is their battle cry but it's extremely weak. Do I really need to remind you all that these forum are ALWAYS filled with people who have problems, regardless of version or OS? You act as if this forum was a ghost town when Tiger and CS3 were current!
Gee, Ann ... people are STILL reporting problems with 10.5 and CS3? How shocking! Guess what - people are STILL reporting problems with 10.4 and CS3 too! Let me make a prediction - people will have problems with 10.8 and CS9!
Vincent-
> I don't really deal with fonts anyway ...
Yes. You do. Even if you never type a single line of text, every application uses fonts to create menus and other GUI items. If one of those fonts are bad, it can create all kinds of problems, including the very problems you mention.
The fact that you don't seem aware of this and you're still using 10.5.4 leads me to believe you're not familiar with the basic practices of maintaining a healthy system. Again, how did you install Leopard on that machine?
Look, if you're simply trying to justify using CS4, go right ahead. It's a worthwhile upgrade in it's own right. However, if you install it on that machine in it's current state, CS4 will NOT fix your problems because you do NOT have a healthy system.
You asked for experiences with Leopard - I can launch every application in both CS3 and CS4 suites
i simultaneously,
and STILL not have your issues. I haven't experienced anything like your CS3 problems in Leopard - on both a 2006 Mac Pro and a 2008 Macbook.
If you'd like help to try and figure out the real problem, I'm more than happy to help. If not, Adobe will gladly take your money ...

I tried copying a photo and pasting it in another event/group within iPhoto but the paste feature doesn't work. This wasn't an issue with both Leopard and Snow Leopard. Do you have any solutions or tips?

I bought a new MacBook Pro with OsX Lion as operating system. I use iPhoto a lot and when I tried copying a photo then pasting it to another event/group, the 'paste' feature doesn't work. This wasn't the case with Leopard and Snow Leopard where the 'paste' feature worked. What I did was to paste the photo first to the desktop before transferring it to the new event/group. I brought my Mac to the Apple store where I bought it and the technicians were themselves surprised that the 'paste' feature didn't work. Chalked it up to glitches in the Lion os. So how do we fix this? I just find it absurd that a feature that used to work in Snow Leopard has been disabled in Lion, and the user still has to undergo an additional step to make it work, when new technology is supposed to make things easier for users.
Also, hasn't anyone noticed that it takes longer for the computer to boot upon opening?

Instead of copy and paste drag the photo to the new event. Or flag it and use the add flagged photos to selected event command
