Mac Leopard Upgrade

Hi there, I'm probably one of the many to ask this but I bought my first mac, a MacBook Pro the other day to find that the new leopard system is due to be released soon in october and I was wondering if any of you knew whether I would be able to get a free upgrade to leopard or what the situation on it would be considering my situation when I could have waited a while longer and got the newer system?
Cheers

While you may be correct, just where would you get Tiger install disks? As far as I know you cannot buy Tiger for Intel machines because they ship with Tiger now. If you go to the Apple Store and check on Tiger you will see the hardware requirement is "PowerPC G5, G4 or G3 processor"--not Intel. When the machines ship with Leopard you will have Leopard install disks and you'll be out of luck. Also I seem to remember that Apple does not recommend installing a system older than the one the machine ships with. Perhaps it would work anyway (though even if you knew someone with the same machine purchased with Tiger installed, you would both have to violate the legal terms for you to "borrow" and install it), but I'm not willing to take any chances nor to violate the legal thing. I'll be buying my new Mac at the end of the month.

  • Cannot upgrade from Mac OS X (10.4.11) with  Mac OS X leopard upgrade DVD

    I tried to install the Leopard today and I was unsuccessful. I was kept from proceeding to the initial install with a box that said Mac OS X cannot be upgraded to V 10.5 on your computer- Mac OS X v 10.4 or later cannot be found on your computer. At this point I can proceed and I had to quit. I brought my Macbook Pro last October just as the Leopard was being released. I purchased for a very small sum the Mac OS X Leopard Upgrade DVD but i used it today and no success. If anyone can assist me in this matter I would appreciate it. I am up to date with firmware and all other soft ware updates etc. I have also have v 10.5.1,2,3 in a folder ready to be added once I can install the my Leopard DVD

    I posted a few weeks ago stating that I was unable to upgrade.
    I ran Utilities and tried again to no avail.
    I called Apple and they told me to backup everything and do a fresh install. Before doing that, I decided to see if the Leopard Upgrade DVD could see my backup because I created it so that it would be a bootable hard disk.
    It did recognize my external disk, so I clicked on the Utilities application to see if it could see my hard disk and it couldn't. When I got back to the window that allowed me to select a hard disk, suddenly my internal hard disk appeared.
    It worked, and now I'm using Leopard. I don't know if it's a workaround, but it was a lot better than deleting everything off of my computer, installing the new system, and copying it all back onto my internal hard disk.
    I hope someone else will find out that this works for them...

  • Mac OS X Leopard Upgrade CD 10.5.1

    When I run the installer on the Mac OS X Leopard Upgrade CD 10.5.1, the computer check just after the language check does not detect my operating system, 10.4.11. It does not even detect my hd so I can restart using 10.4.11. I have to restart holding down the Option key. Lucky for me I know that. Any ideas?

    I recall somewhere that if you wait a long time it will find your OS. I recall many of these things when Leopard first came out and usually it was a matter of waiting a very long time.
    No guarantee, but if you search this forum you will see those instances I refer to.

    Video: Software Final Cut Pro X  10.0.8
    I use the imac mainly for editing Video which when doing so it has reached temperatures of near to 60° C which causes the program to become unstable and needs to be cooled down to operate correctly.
    An Apple technician (by phone) advised me to download an smcfancontrol.  This allows each individual fan to increase speed and also advises the current temperature at °C.  The smcfancontrol has been downloaded but this has not resolved the problem.  By increasing the speed of the fan more heat is generated and creates additional noise. 
    I have since taken the iMac to an Apple Store for examination as suggested by APPLECARE when the fans were found to be working correctly.  An Apple Store technician carried out a test, but not whilst working under the pressure of FINAL CUT PRO when the iMac generates a high temperature.
    The Temperature Specification  for this model is
    Operating Temperature 20 °c to 35°C
    Storage Temp.47°c
    Clearly the temperature my iMac  is operating at is excessive and could cause the computer to break down prematurely.  Has anyone experienced this problem.

    When was the last time you cleaned/vacuumed out all of your iMac's vents, slots and ports.
    You need to do this with the iMac powered down, disconnected from power and everything disconnected.
    Lay your iMac, screen down, on a soft surface, like a heavy towel. Use a small electronics vac, or portable or full size vac with hose and a crevice tool attachment and carefully and slowly vacuum every vent, slot and port on your iMac.
    Then reconnect everything up, power up and download and install iStat Pro. Start working, then report the temps of your iMac after this has been done.
    When using SMCFan Control, it is important not to run the fans at too high an RPM. This doesn't generate heat on its own, but will suck in more dust, lint and dirt into your iMac, and that will be the cause of additonal increases in heat.
    I run my fans in the range of 1400-1600 RPMs. You can go as high as 1800 RPMs but it is important to keep the RPM range below either 1800 or below 2000 RPMs.
    I, also, run a very small desktop fan pointed toward the upper back of my iMac to keep temps down even further.

  • Mac Noobie will Snow Leopard Upgrade Wipe My MAC

    Hi,
    I am a noob when it comes to macs as I am more of a windows person :o but I have a macbook to. I am looking to preorder for a mac snow leopard upgrade. but I was wondering when you install the new OS will it wipe my harddrive like it would on a pc

    I preordered myself and am also a noob to Apple computers.
    I believe it will be fine because of you read the apple write up is says that it looks for programs that won't run on it and "puts them aside." This statement tells me that it doesn't erase the programs. I hope for you me and everyone else i'm correct.

  • I am using a Mac Leopard and want to know if I upgrade to Snow Leopard (so I can use the new Lightroom 4) will any of my programs be affected.  I will not be able to restore some software and want to know if I'll lose those programs with the upgrade?

    Hello,
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It looks like they do still have it:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
    And it's been reported that if you have a MobileMe account Apple will send one free.
    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.

  • Get new restore disks if Mac shipped with 10.4.x and Leopard upgrade DVD?

    Hi,
    I am new to the forum and I have searched the topics for quite some time but have not quite found an answer so please forgive any redundancy.
    I have a 9 month old MacBook Pro which shipped with a Leopard upgrade disk. I have tried to do a clean install using the 10.4 disk and then the upgrade disk again but I keep getting an error on install saying the disk is corrupted. I think it may have been scratched.
    I am wondering if there is a way to get a Leopard restore disk without purchasing a retail Leopard? When I called Apple the lady said she did not know and they would call me back in 48 hrs. I have not heard yet and am wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Thank you very much!

    Hi,
    Thanks for your response. I have tried repartitioning and zeroing the drive and I ran my TechTools Pro drive checker (which also repairs) to make sure it was not the drive. I am sure it means the disk and not the HD as well. I was hoping not to have to buy Leopard. One would think that if Apple already gave you Leopard once they should be able to give you newer restore disks. Anyway thank you very much for your input. If there are any other ideas I am all ears. Thank you!
    Sometimes a copy of a disk is "better" than a scratched or damaged original.
    You might copy the install disk. Copying reads and rereads marginal areas on disks and sometimes results in a disk that works when the original does not.
    It's worth a try.

  • IPod no longer mounts since Leopard upgrade

    My iPod no longer mounts since I upgraded to Leopard. I'm using a USB 2 port that's part of a third party PCI card I installed myself. Used to work fine before the Mac OS upgrade.
    If I reboot with the iPod already plugged in, it mounts.
    Help?

    Forgot to mention that I had tried those:
    Authorize your purchases from an administrator account
    -> Yep, I'm the admin
    Authorize using the correct account name
    -> Nothing changed- I am only authorizing my devices, and only use my account on the machine. Definitely using the right account name.
    Turn Off User Account Controls (Windows Vista and Windows 7 Only)
    -> Did this a long, long time ago, so definitely not the issue.
    Remove the SC Info folder
    -> This was the only new thing that I had seen yesterday when I tried it, and went through these steps, to no avail. Still exactly the same problem. I closed iTunes, deleted the folder, rebooted and relaunched iTunes and synced the device. Same thing.
    The problem is the computer IS authorized, and I can sync one device, but not the other. No problem with iPhone 4- just iPod Touch, 3rd gen. It seems to be in a weird state.
    One thing would lead me to believe it's a PC/iTunes problem, but then it is only with one device and not the other. Hard to point to the root of the problem. I just don't want to lose the data on the iPod- I've done a lot of work on it.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

  • My iMac will not boot up from the Leopard upgrade disk nor will it eject it.

    My iMac is very slow and sluggish.  Followed online instructions to use the Disk Utility to run repair.  After doing so it told to reboot my system from the install disk and then run the Disk Uitility to run repair from it.  I put in my Leopard upgrade disk and tried to reboot.  I get the chime and  the Apple logo and hear the disk trying to be read, but after about 5 minutes my iMac shuts completely off.  I have tried to eject the disk using all the methods found in the community and nothing works.  I want to try my orignal Mac OS X install disk to see if that works.  My computer is about a 2007 model.  It worked great until just a couple days ago.  Frankly I can't afford to take it in so I will have to figure this out on my own with your help. :-(

    I cannot open terminal.  When booting I get the gray screen with the Apple logo and the twirling comb goes for a while and shut the computer completely off.
    I got into the single-mode user and learned the following: disk1s3: I/O error.  SAM Multimedia: Read & Write failed, SENSE_KEY = 0x03, ASC = 0x02m ASCQ = 0x00. 
    Singleuser boot -- fsck not done
    Root device is mounted read-only. 
    If you want to make modifcations to files: /sbin/fsck -fy
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    I typed in the drutil eject and got:
    SAM Multimedia: Read & Write failed, SENSE_KEY = 0x03, ASC = 0x02m ASCQ = 0x00.
    Library not loaded.  Reason: not suiteable image found. 
    It did find:

    I have tried holding the left mouse key, the eject key and nothing happens.  To bad I can't pull the
    thing out with tweezers. 
    So where do I go from here?

  • Can't Print After Snow Leopard Upgrade

    I have a home network centered around an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station. The base station is wired to a Linksys network switch which, in turn, is wired to two computers - an Apple Dual G5 running OS X 10.4.11 and a and Mac MIni which, until yesterday was running Leopard. I have an HP Laserjet P1006 connected to the USB port of the AEBS and, until yesterday, everything worked fine. Yesterday, I ran the Snow Leopard Upgrade on my Mini and now the Mini won't print to the HP over the network. If I connect the printer directly to the MIni, it works fine; as soon as I reconnect the printer to the AEBS, the Mini will no longer print. The lights on the printer will flash but nothing comes out. I have downloaded the HP Printer driver update from Apple but this didn't help. I have reset the AEBS, to no avail. The G5 running Tiger has no problems with printing. And, my daughter just got a brand-new MacBook Pro loaded with Snow Leopard from the factory and she can print to the HP over the network without any problems.
    Any ideas?

    When I upgraded iMac from Leopard to Snow Leopard 10.6 it also stopped printing wirelessly to Brother MFC6490CW.
    I thought I had this same issue with my Epson printer when wireless printing. Actually, in SL, wireless printing is very slow at least with an Epson. Takes about 5 minutes or so for wireless print to even start. When checking the printing status app, it will start out saying "printer ready." Then after a few minutes it will say "looking for printer." A few minutes later it will say "printing."
    When I go into the next room where the printer is, the green light is "flashing" letting me know that "printing" has started.
    So I guess what I am trying to say is to check the printing status app after you click "print." It's possible "Brother" is just as slow as "Epson."

  • IChat video no longer working after Leopard upgrade

    I always used to be able to video chat with everyone and then after my Leopard upgrade, no such luck... I looked through the user tips and here is what I have done.
    1) Have you done the Quicktime Streaming setting ?
    Yes, I have it set
    2) Are you running your Mac with the Firewall On ?
    Nope
    3) Did you upgrade from Panther ?
    Nope
    4) How are you connected to the internet ?
    Airport Extreme. Do I need to do set anything? We use it in 802.11n and nothing else.
    5) Do you have any iChat Add-Ons ?
    Nope
    7) Does it have anything to do with connecting to a PC ?
    See Here and here
    8) List your Connection speed
    6.7Mbps
    Any ideas??
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    2) Set the Firewall in Leopard to Allow Specific applications and service and add iChat to the list.
    With an Airport Extreme I expect you have been getting Error 7
    If the Modem is a Cable modem then nothing should be done to the Airport
    If the modem id SDSL and routes then the Airport should not Share An IP and also the ports in the modem need to be opened with UPnP or pointing at the IP the computer has after you stop it Sharing an IP.

  • Tiger to Snow Leopard upgrade fails  with buffer overflow

    I'm not sure where to proceed with the following situation:
    I have a 17" MB pro with 1GB memory and 22GB free hard drive space. I booted into the installer from the CD and stepped through the prompts without changing any options to the point where the install starts doing it's magic. Shortly after starting, the install will crash complaining about a buffer overflow during/just after the part where it's finding system files.
    I originally tried to do this with only 10GB free, but after the first failure, I did a repair disk using the Disk Utility and removed a bunch of really old files I no longer needed, which brought the available disk space to 22GB, but this did not help anything. At this point, I'm not sure what to do. I use Carbon Copy Cloner as a backup so I can do a full wipe and install, however I would prefer to avoid that as it is a lot of work to get things back.
    Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
    Error log follows. I cut out a lot of stuff so please let me know if that detail is needed.

    Regarding the need to buy the packaged bundle, I keep seeing folks here and elsewhere claiming that is not necessary.
    That's because they have not read, or concern themselves with the license agreement. Section 2. "Permitted License Uses and Restrictions", section C says on http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/macosx106.pdf
    It's been read forwards, backwards, and upside down. Nowhere on the packaging is there any identification of the $29 (or $49 family pack) version as only suitable as a "Leopard upgrade" version. There are vague mentions about it on Apple's online sales page and in press releases. I've read the license terms thoroughly and the only conclusion that could reasonably be conferred is that the $29 version carries a "single user" license simply because it doesn't say "family pack". There are plenty of reports that it installs over Tiger just fine.
    Granted I've read numerous reports and I installed my copy over Leopard. However - imagine someone who vaguely heard about it, walked into a store and bought a copy, thoroughly looked over the box and the license terms (within the disc), and installed it in good faith over Tiger. There is ZERO, ZIP, NADA on the package that would lead anyone to believe it is anything but a copy with a "SINGLE USER" license where the terms don't preclude installing over Tiger.
    C. Leopard Upgrade Licenses. If you have purchased an Upgrade for Mac OS X Leopard license, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License, you are granted a limited non-exclusive license to install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-branded computer as long as that computer has a properly licensed copy of *Mac OS X Leopard already installed on it.*
    The emphasis above is mine.
    While this may not be enforced by a software key, it is there in the license agreement on the PDF included on the CD, when you purchase the under $100 licenses, which are also called "Upgrade" on the store.
    There's an opinion that "Leopard upgrade" only applies to the "Up To Date" versions that require proof of purchase of a recent Mac computer. The reports on those installer discs are that they do in fact check for a valid Leopard installation.
    The following has the most in-depth discussion on the subject of whether or not the license allows for Snow Leopard over Tiger that I've seen so far:
    http://www.mackb.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/mac/26361/the-29-purchase-price-of-Snow-Leop ard
    This is the best description I've heard on it, from someone who identifies himself as "David Empson":
    http://www.mackb.com/Uwe/Threads/Single.aspx/mac/26361?ArtId=1j5mofd.1pw6lllbtpj dwN%25dempson%40actrix.gen.nz
    If someone walks in and buys Snow Leopard, without written notice from
    Apple that they are buying an Upgrade version which requires Leopard,
    and without discussing that point with the seller, the buyer is under no
    obligation to have researched their purchase in advance and know all of
    Apple's publicity statements from three months ago.
    They are buying it in good faith, and the contract (licence) is valid.

  • Isight no longer works after snow leopard upgrade

    my isight no longer is available directly after snow leopard upgrade on my macbook black. Anyone else with the same problem? The isight does not show up in 'about this mac' under USB and I tried resetting SMC and PRAM.

    Hi,
    In Leopard there was an App called iSight Update app that was in Hard Drive/System/Library/Core Services
    This does not seem to be there in Snow Leopard.
    An issue with some computers with the camera was that in System Preferences > Displays the Colours needed to be set to Millions.
    Also check the Hard Drive/System/Library/Extensions folder and see that you have the Apple_iSight.kext (this is likely to handle the Internal iSights as well).
    One last thing.
    Some Web sites can make use of the camera using Flash.
    If that tab is still open the Browser may have use of the camera.
    It sounds like you have done computer restarts and this will not be the case unless the browser is set to go back to that page.

  • How do you RE-INSTALL Leopard 10.5 over already installed LEOPARD upgraded?

    I have an iMac computer that originally had Tiger installed. I did all the updates to Tiger and was ready for Leopard. I used "Super Duper" and cloned my hardrive before I installed the new Leopard (10.5 dvd) using th UPGRADE option. After installing Leopard (UPGRADE) and upgrading to 10.5.2 I felt I might get better results with either a "CLEAN INSTALL" or an "INSTALL & ARCHIVE." So, I put the LEOPARD 10.5 DVD back in my Mac, thinking the INSTALLER CHOICES of UPGRADE, ARCHIVE & INSTALL or CLEAN INSTALL would show up again and I could just ERASE this version of Leopard and do the CLEAN INSTALL or ARCHIVE & INSTALL and start over! Well when i put the DVD in the BIG X with the install and restart but not the INSTALL CHOICES? i tried 'OPTION" key hod down and "C" key hold down. what do I do? Thanks in advance for your support and help

    If you installed the Time Machine & Airport update, the install disk probably doesn't recognize the HD.
    really?? I would find that very strange. Archive and install should definitely be possible anyway. At the screen where one sees the choice of a disk to install to, there should be an "Options" button. Clicking on it should bring up a screen with a choice of upgrade and install (I believe that's the default), archive and install, and erase and install. Choosing archive and install should allow one to proceed.
