Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard update question

I am considering updating from os x 10.5.8 to os x 10.6.4 in order to use a software application that requires os x 10.6. Should I expect any performance issues with Final Cut Pro 6.0.1?

Thanks for the good advice. I'm having some trouble with the updates. I downloaded ProApplicationsUpdate2008-01, 02, and 04, which contain Final Cut Pro updates 6.0.3, 6.0.4, and 6.0.5. I installed the updates and received the installed successfully message, but the Final Cut Pro version remains unchanged at 6.0.1. 6.0.6 will not update because 6.0.5 is not installed. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Snow Leopard Update Broke 2 Printers (Samsung, Brother)

One of the Snow Leopard updates has broken both of my printers. Both are hard-wired network printers that previously worked fine.
1. Brother HL-5250DN B/W laser
- When I print HTML pages, the page background color defaults to black, so I get a solid black page with graphics stuck in. I first noticed this in Safari; changing the "print backgrounds" setting doesn't fix the problem. I then saved a page (www.apple.com) to HTML source and tried printing it from other apps. Firefox & Text Edit both had the same problem. MS Word (Office 2004) did not.
- If I create a PDF file from a web page in Safari, then print it using Preview, the problem occurs. If I print it using Photoshop Elements, it prints correctly.
Note that images LOOK fine. The all-black background only occurs when printing.
2. Samsung CLX-3170 Color Laser
No matter what I try to print, I always get the same error: "couldn't create rgb colorspace". I have searched both these forums and the web and can't even find a description of what might be causing this (although may Mac owners seem to be having variations of the problem).
3. Troubleshooting -- What I have tried (systematically, multiple times)
- Re-installed latest printer drivers from Manufacturer's sites
- Installed Gutenprint 2.4 CUPs drivers
- Repaired permissions
- Reset the Print subsystem and re-installed all printers
- Tried different printer drivers where available (the Brother has a BR-script driver)
- Run OS X software update
- Restarted my system
- Removed printer-related items from Logon
- Reset Safari
- Run Onyx and cleaned all caches and nearly everything else
4. I have an iMac G5 running 10.5.8. It prints all of the above to both printers with no problems.
At this point I'm starting to wonder how well Windows 7 might run on my iMac... (only half kidding).
I've wasted hours on this problem. I hope that someone at Apple has a solution.

If you are using the Brother driver, have you tried using the Generic PostScript PPD as a workaround?

Which driver are you using when adding the printer? Have you tried the other one? Samsung has SL drivers for this model, so you shouldn't have to use the Gutenprint driver.
I hope that someone at Apple has a solution.
Apple doesn't write the drivers, so if using the Generic PostScript PPD or switching drivers doesn't work, you might have better luck contacting Brother and Samsung.

Ipod doesn't show up after snow leopard update

since i made the snow leopard update my iPod doesn't show up in iTunes, in iPhoto it still works... any ideas to solve my problems?

First, click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen then click Software Update...
If the system is up to date, try reinstalling the AMDS...

And if you have anti virus software installed, disable that before connecting the iPod to your Mac.

BH-503 + Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (re)connection...

I have recently purchased a Nokia BH-503 and I am having issues when using it with my mac ( Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard [10.6.2]).
The device pairs successfully, but when trying to connect, usually the first attempt either fails, or I get sound with a tinny voice, truncated and accelerated as if playing double speed.
If I go to the Sound Options, change the audio to Mono and back to Stereo, the audio is fixed though.
Does anyone know of a fix/firmware update for this problem?

I have the same bluetooth phone and a Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Do you find any solution?

IPhone SDK 3.1.3 XCode 3.2.1 Snow Leopard update (lcrt1.10.6.o not found)

Today I downloaded the iPhone SDK 3.1.3 XCode 3.2.1 Snow Leopard update.
After installing it, I looked in the Project Info. In the Deployyment section, the "Mac OS X Deployment Target" is set to "Max OS X 10.5".
Naturally, as fussy I am, I changed it to Mac OS X 10.6, which is what I want. After Building, it reports an ld error: i.e.
ld: library not found for -lcrt1.10.6.o
Why does this happen? Did others have the same experience?
Is this normal or how to fix? (Other than the obvious step to go to look for the missing library and try to install it myself).

Snow Leopard Update Keyboard Issue

hi all,
i recently updated my mac pro from ~2007 to snow leopard (finally!) and have encountered a fairly serious problem. Everything seems to work fine, but there are a few instances in which my keyboard fails to read my typing: in Spotlight and, most importantly, when the OS asks me for my root password for system updates.
The prompt appears, and I can alter my user name all I want, but when I try to type in the password box, it remains blank. I cannot copy and paste into it. I thought it may have been an issue with the drivers for my microsoft keyboard, but I attached a brand new apple keyboard and it had the same problems in the same places.
My keyboard works in safari, pages, word, and in the finder search, and everywhere else I've tested. Any ideas why this could be happening? I was not able to do a clean install because my backup is currently unreliable, if that's information you ideas. Any responses would be greatly appreciated, as this has seriously dampened my excitement for the new OS... it's basically unusable if I cannot update anything, and I suspect I may have the same problem if I tried to install something requiring the root password.

Repair permissions and restart your computer.

HT4592 My Mac OS X 10.5 Snow Leopard is missing Java, any suggestion to restore?

I am experiencing problem in getting any Java chart on a webpage, which suggested me to download Java Virtual Machine. My understanding is my Mac OS X10.5.8 Snow Leopard should have come bundled with Java. Appreciate any suggestion to rectify this. Thank you very much in advance.

Make sure to ask for the 10.6.7 version as they sent me 10.6.3 which has no App Store that is needed to install Lion, or Mountain Lion. They said it is in the update but I just updated and still no App Store visible. Argh! You have to get the Snow Leopard Disk via mail but will be able to download Lion and/or Mountain lion directly from the App Store, and why you need to make sure they send the correct version if you do order the SL disk. Just an FYI!:)

Although the Snow Leopard updated to 10.9.2 Maverisck, so I then installed FCPX 10.1 I can not pour 4k video on your computer because it can not see the Sony FDR Ax100e. Thing left for me to do?

Sony has put in a position that the camera was connected with their software called PlayMemories Home . This then allows you to import movies and photos on the computer and then use them in different ways. However, when the camera is connected to the mac and I said Mass Storage USB Connected , then you execute this program I told you about two seconds later , however returns an error message that is: Connect the device to your computer or multimedia support . I do not understand .

Imac i5 snow leopard update

Hi I bought an imac i5 27inch just before xmas 09. No problems. I bought the snow leopard update today ($40 from Harvey Norman) and tried to install it. Initially it started ticking over. It initially said 45 miniutes to install. Then I went back about 5 mins later than it said 49 mins to install. I then came back about an hour later and there was a white screen with the apple logo. I left it for another hour.....just the same. So I switched it off and on with the power button. White screen reappeared. Left it for two hours and no change. Took out all the peripherals. Switched it off and on....and left it for 5 hours....still the same. The mac does not respond. I cannot get the snow leopard disc out. Not sure what to do. The imac is getting quite hot (like it is doing something) when it is on....I have now switched it off. I would very grateful for any ideas. This imac was not loaded up with much.....most of the hard drive is free and there is extra (apple) RAM.

I don't understand why you bought a Snow Leopard upgrade disk. The 27" iMac i5, introduced in October of 2009, comes with Snow Leopard installed. Are you sure your iMac is the one described in this Technical Specification?
If so, the retail Snow Leopard DVD, released several months before it, does not fully support the hardware in your iMac & you should only reinstall the OS if needed using the system discs that came with your iMac.

Snow leopard update lost iPhoto

Hi
Sorry but the preamble is a bit long.
My son gave me his mac mini - great. Had installed windows on it instead of snow leopard (why???).
He had bought the Snow leopard update disc - Mac came with Leopard.
I want Snow leopard.
I inserted the Snow leopard disc and installed it fine.
Where has iPhoto gone?
I think it's on the original Leopard disc but it's not in the optional instals.
The Mac will not boot from the Leopard disc (I suspect because it's the previous OS).
Can anyone help?
I realise that I should have installed the original Leopard disc before the Snow Leopard update.
Thanks
Chris

I am surprised that you were able to install OS X 10.6 without your system having a previous version of OS X installed - in fact, I thought that was impossible from the upgrade disk.
This is only true for the special Snow Leopard upgrade discs that are not retail products. One example is the white "CPU Drop-in DVD" that came with some Macs manufactured shortly after Snow Leopard was released or still may come with some refurbished older Mac models that Apple sometimes sells. All these Macs originally came with Leopard installed (& that is what their included grey system discs install). The "drop in" disc allows users to upgrade these Macs to Snow Leopard but does require Leopard to be installed first for licensing reasons.
I received one of these discs in the box with the refurbished 2008 20" iMac I bought from Apple. You can't mistake it for a retail disc -- although both are white & have the same Snow Leopard picture on them, the "CPU Drop-in DVD" label & the "not to be sold separately" notice make it clear it isn't a retail product.

You do not need Snow Leopord (10.6.X), but you do need Leopord (10.5.8) and iTunes 10.x for iOS 4.3. You need iTunes 10.5 for iOS 5
For the Current (iOS 5 iPod touch specs)
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.5.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes 10.5 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)7
