Install Snow Leopard on Tiger Mac with WinXP and bootcamp for Tiger

I want to install Snow L in my Mac. The thing is that I have Windows installed on it as well. I used the old Bootcamp (now discontinued from Tiger) to make the installation.
I was wondering what happens if I want to perform a clean installation of Snow Leopard in my Tiger partition....
Please help, it seems hard!!

The Windows installation will be preserved as is.

From Tiger to Leopard. And back to Tiger...

hi =)
i was running tiger 10.4.10.
i upgraded to leopard quite smoothly.
then i installed the 10.5.1 update.
all went downhill from there on. i always verify/repair permissions + check HD before and after each installation, in addition to running the extended hardware test.
this evening, i finally gave up on leopard, erased my HD and reinstalled everything from the DVDs that came with my macbook (bringing me back to 10.4.8), as leopard could not install due to the macbook crashing all the time during installation (thank you 10.5.1).
i then ran my bootable clone external harddrive using superduper (thank you for backups!) to erase the HD and clone itself on the HD.
so basically, i am back to where i was before the leopard upgrade, i.e. in 10.40.
no data loss of any kind and all applications have updated smoothly, etc.
question:
considering the hassle experienced with 10.5.1 under leopard, and now that everything is running fine, should i tempt faith with the 10.4.11 update? or wait for the next one?
i might reinstall leopard eventually, as that upgrade went smoothly. it was only the 10.5.1 that created havoc.
thank you for your thoughts =)

hi barry
and thank you for the message.
i am using a USB modem to connect to the net when in the office, as access to some websites (myspace notably) is blocked on our company network.
these USB modems and their related software proposed here in swizerland are still only compatible up to 10.4.10.
so i might hold off on the 10.4.11 upgrade or going back to leopard until all non-apple applications i use (USB modem + superduper mainly) are compatible.
for superduper, i was manually updating all important files and folders on the lacie eyternal disk, so as not to lose its bootable capacity, which would have been lost by running superduer with leopard.
worked well, but a little time consuming =)
patience is the game sometimes.

Video between a Leopard user and a PPC Tiger user

Is this possible? We bought my father-in-law a web cam for Father's Day so he can see the baby when we move across the country. He's on a PPC PowerMac G5 using 10.4.11 and I have 10.5.7. Thanks!

Hi,
It depends on the camera you bought.
If it is UVC compliant (USB Video Class) and he has a USB 2.0 port to plug it into (Some keyboard are not) then the MAC OS have a Generic Driver in the OS for these cameras.
These cameras can be marked on the Box as "Vista Certified"
Other USB 1.1 cameras are likely to need Mac Drivers and a Utility for iChat called iUSBCam
Some manufacturers supply Mac drivers either on a CD or on their Web site.
So do not. The iUSBCam page has a Camera Guide page top right will links to at least two Generic Third Party Drivers that will work for some cameras.
If you managed to acquire a Firewire Webcam this should work without any need for Drivers (Or the Utility)

Can I keep BootCamp as is and upgrade from Tiger to Leopard?

Just about to move to Leopard, and wondering if I can just leave my BootCamp as is and will it work with Leopard. I've got BootCamp 1.3 and will upgrade to 1.4 - but then want to install Leopard. OK I'm guessing I can leave it and then install the version of BootCamp which (I believe) comes with Leopard-- and which (I believe) is no longer a "Beta", rather a standard issue version.
Any comments appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

I have a problem after upgrading to Leopard.
I was using BC 1.2 as I forgot to update the drivers to the latest version then, before 26th Oct.
I bought and upgraded to Leopard today and whenever I boot into Windows XP, 10 seconds into the XP desktop a small (it doesnt fill up the whole screen) "blue screen of death" pops up in the middle for a split second (not enough time for me to tell what the error msg was) and the system restarts itself.
I have tried thrice so fast and still am not successful in performing tasks in XP. I play games mostly in XP.
Anyone has encountered this?

Mac OS 10.5.6 but have 10.4.6 (Tiger) Disk and Bootcamp 2.0

Hi,
I have a MacBook which is running 10.5.6 I think that means I have Leopard. But I am not sure.
We recently got the MacBook working again and when we reinstalled Mac OS with the only disk we had which was a 10.4.6 Tiger Disk it updated it to 10.5.6 and installed BootCamp 2.0 which was great. I used it to get Windows XP running on it. However, all the literature tells me I have to insert the Leopard disk to get the Drivers. We don't have one. Never did. So I can't get Windows running properly. Bootcamp didn't ask me to make a drivers disk and it is defintely version 2.0.
Should I be able to use Bootcamp and has something gone a bit weird for us during the update? Or am I just getting confused thinking that we have Leopard but we actually have 10.5.6 Tiger?
Please help, I am very confused!

I understand all that. Hence this post.
About this Mac tells me its 10.5.6, I have the disks for 10.4.6 Tiger. The drivers are not on this disk.
We installed a clean OS with the 10.4.6 disk and when it finished updating itself it was 10.5.6 with a shiny new version of Bootcamp 2.0. I remember the sales man saying this would happen when we bought it way back because Leopard was just on its way out.
We don't have Leopard disks but we have 10.5.6 and Bootcamp 2.0 (all legit I promise you) I need to know if I am missing something here, should I be able to get them from somewhere on the system itself?
Because I don't have the Leopard Disk (never did) and I would really like to be able to dual boot windows.
Its a pain in the arse that Apple don't just have support for the drivers that you can just download instead of being all "They're on the disk!"
It vexes me somewhat.

Solution To Network problems with Leopard systems and tiger and vista

After lots of research and looking into sharing data with leopard systems and other os, i finally found a Solution. Before i state what you have to do to fix it here is what the problem is.
Mac Os x( Leopard) systems trying to find computers or share data to other systems on the same lan can't find each other or simply if are found cant share data with each other.
Reason for the problem.
- By default tiger , windows and some linux distro's automatically join WORKGROUP under workgroup in WINS. with leopard this is changed to join local under workgroup. This effectively causes the systems to fail to communicate with each other.
- By default shared folders on leopard has smb not checked by default.
Solutions
-in order to see computers on the same network or workgroup. find out the workgroup with which all the local machines are connected to, then on your leopard system goto Apple->System Preferences->network ->advance and head over to WINS tab from here either select your workgroup or type in your workgroup. hit ok then apply in the network window. ( restart your mac at this point int time and try browsing the computers in your network)
- to make sure you can share folders with windwos machines goto apple->system preference ->Sharing. Make sure file sharing is selected then choose the folder you want to share or add a folder you want to share. next click on options and enable Share files and folders using SMB enter your password if it asks and then hit done.
hopefully this helps people with problems on their mac's. other wise you have three options if this is too much trouble install vmware fusion/parallels on your machine and install windows / install windows using bootcamp / and last get a windows machine ( although this choice is highly unlikely it's still a choice). Please note this is not a windows vs mac subject is just that apple has changed the network stack protocols and architecture so stuff is being done differently , you just got to think different to get stuff to work. but after it's all said and done all your system should work in harmony now.

Thank you all for replying. I upgraded to Tiger from Panther the first week and it worked AWESOME! I do have to say that I truly and beginning to feel like I'm having issues I would experience on a windows machine. I know that Apple will fix but it is frustrating that I'm having the issues that I'm having.
I just need to finish up the project I'm working on and then I'm going back. I'm currently without any admin rights on my computer but I'm working away. I actually don't know what to expect next so I'm just backing up my data from time to time and working hard to get this done and get back to Tiger (that will be a long process so don't want to get started).
Again thank you all! Also I want to call Apple about this but don't want to wait on hold for the tech. AND they are only open during business hours. Guess what, I work during business hours. What's up with that? Adobe is available all the time.

How to Uninstall Leopard Upgrade and go back to Tiger

I would like to go back to Tiger and was wondering how to uninstall the Leopard upgrade without having to do a full reformat. Is this possible? Thanks in advance!

First, welcome to the Apple boards.
Backup what you have because it probably contains things from the original update you want to keep - network settings, passwords, etc. A bootable clone is your best bet - and test it out.
Then you need to format your HD (full, not quick) with the Leopard DVD and then reboot with the Tiger CD and install it. I am not sure how much you can migrate "downwards" from the Leopard backup, but some things will probably come along OK. Not sure about mail since it was converted by Leopard - will it unconvert? Don't know.
I have read of some who tried to simply install Tiger over Leopard but the results were less than great. You can try it once you have that clone backup, because you won't be losing anything.
I would suggest unplugging the clone during the erase and install process until you get to the migration point.

I have a brand new Leopard based MacBook Pro that I need to revert to its previous cat form of Tiger. Would you mind walking me through it? I have Tiger disks that came with another MacBook Pro so those should have all of the machine specific items I will need. As I understand this, I start the computer from the included Leopard disk and do a full format. (I noticed that there is a new partition style named GUID Partition, is this Leopard only?) Next, I load in my Tiger disks and install from those? I do not need to do any system backups as I have no information on this computer as of yet. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Brian

I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. After a few weeks the HDD failed. New Leopard install reports: "insufficient memory". I need Tiger install disks so I can install

I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard.
After a few weeks the HDD failed. I bought a new disk, installed it and trued to install Leopard, but the install fails reporting "insufficient memory".
I assume the installation requires more memory than the OS actually needs to be able to run.
I need Tiger install CD/DVD so I can install Tiger first and then upgrade to Leopard.

Call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a reasonable fee, they will supply a replacement set of system discs (if available).
The discs will be for the original version of the OS that was pre-installed when the Mac was manufactured.
You need much more RAM than that.

TS2951 after installing snow leopard 10.6.3 from tiger 10.4.11 everything upgraded and opens correctly except the dock. It is still running with the old dock.

help, the original HD (10.5.8 leopard) crashed and i replace it with one a little smaller HD (10.4.11 tiger). It was real jerky and i couldn't play a lot of my games. Since I had always wanted to upgrade to snow leopard anyway I did. Always wanted to get the app store. Still don't have it! what did i do wrong or better yet, how to i fix it?
up graded from 10.4.11 with 10.6.3 - everything is great except it is using the old dock. I don't have the download icon, the utility icon the app store icon in my doc. - and when looking in finder i don't find the app store application - not real sure what else or where else to look.

De-installing Leopard and re-installing Tiger

After installing Leopard, my Final Cut Express won't work, so I want to de-install Leopard and Quick time 7 and re-install Tiger and earlier versions of Q Time. Do I do this?

By erasing your hard drive then reinstalling Tiger and all required updates. Be sure to backup your files first so they can be restored after the reinstallation.

Upgraded to Leopard - What About Bootcamp?

I just upgraded to Leopard and was wondering what I need to do, if anything, to my existing Bootcamp setup? I'm running XP Pro and was curious if I had to make a new driver CD or anything like that. Thanks.

As with any changes or updates, step one is usually to backup your partitions so you will be able to recover or restore.
Clone your OS X partition. And WinClone 2 can backup your Windows partition from inside OS X to another drive.
Even if only 10% run risk of losing one or both partitions, the upgrade to Leopard has impacted users, on Windows or OS X side if not both. My feeling on this is that Leopard makes changes to disk partitions from what Tiger and BootCamp beta used.

Bootcamp on tiger in a post beta world

A few days back the public beta program for bootcamp ended and leapord (with bootcamp built in) was announced.
Starting from scratch on tiger (I do not have any previous bootcamp intalls or downloads), is there a way to run bootcamp on tiger today?
I'm motivated for such because I have just purchased a new mac, but I would rather run tiger until leapord has a revision or two under its belt.

Are you sure it is expired TODAY?

How to FIND BootCamp for Tiger? (own Leapord)

I have Leopard but won't install until Pro Tools and all the OS 10.5 bugs (10.5.2 supposed to be huge), fix comes out - in the mean time, any way to get a copy of bootcamp for TIGER as this is supposed to be the best way to get your mac to run the fastest with games in windows. Parallels on a Macbook Pro is a joke (regarding gaming) and is extremely choppy.
Thanks

"Important: The license to use Boot Camp Beta version 1.3, 1.4 expired when Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard was released. To find out more about Boot Camp 2.0 (which is included with Leopard), see this article."
