Multilngual Braille Output available for Snow Leopard

Hello all,
My package for Braille output in languages other than U.S. English is now available for Snow Leopard. It's very easy to install, and allows uncontracted Braille to be shown on your refreshable Braille display using your own language's dotcodes.
The languages are Danish, French, German, Greek/Coptic, Hebrew, Norwegian, Russian and US Unicode (which gives the non-Latin languages). They are available as a free .dmg download from CeciMac. The site is in French, but don't worry, the Multilingual Braille package is the only .dmg download link on the home page. The installer is localised in French and English, and once it has run and you've restarted your Mac, the whole list of output languages is available via the popup menu in the Braille tab of VoiceOver Utility.
I'm currently working on a number of other languages, which will be released as soon as possible. They include Arabic, British English, Croat, Czech, Dutch, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish. If you want any other languages, please let me know by e-mail to conseil at anarchie dot org dot uk.
Enjoy Snow Leopard!
Archie

Hello again, all!
I have now added new languages to the CeciMac Multilingual Braille package.
The full list is Arabic, Danish, French, German, Greek/Coptic, Hebrew, Italian, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish and US Unicode. The pop-up menu now includes specific items for all of these, as well as the original Apple US English.
The installation instructions are only provided in English and French, but they are very simple.
To download the package, please click on the following link:
Download CeciMac Multingual Braille.
Feedback is welcome to conseil at anarchie dot org dot uk.
All the best!
Archie

Are there any free down loads available for snow leopard os x10.5.8?

ARE THERE ANY FREE DOWNLOADS FOR APPLE SNOW LEOPARD OS X 10.5.8?

If you're trying to upgrade the OS, no; you need to buy 10.6 on DVD from the online Apple Store.
If you're trying to download something else, it depends on the product.

HP Scanjet 8250 No Drivers available for Snow Leopard 6.3.1 Help!

Hello:
I wanted to know if anyone else using Snow Leopard 6.3.1 has run into a problem using the HP Scanjet 8250 Scanner? HP does not have drivers for this unit and does not plan on having them any time in the near future. If you know of a third party site that has drivers for it and works, please let me know.
Thanks,
Steve

I can confirm TeenTitan's experience.
On a clean install of 10.6.4 I installed the SANE packages referenced above.
I then downloaded and installed:
HP Photosmart Studio: includes support for Mac OS X v10.4 and v10.5 (Leopard) v1.0 8 Feb 2008
(a newer version than referenced by TeenTitan)
The HP installer listed the correct scanner series and allowed the install to complete. After the install, but before the reboot, I received an error about /System/Library/Extensions/hpPlugInInit.kext not being installed correctly. The permissions were incorrect, so I did a chown root:wheel on the file and the error didn't return. For what it's worth, this same kext is a PPC kext and doesn't appear in the Extensions list of System Profiler.
So far, the only oddity I've noticed is that the pre-scan appears garbled at first. Once the scanner cycle completes, the pre-scan refreshes and looks normal. I've done several scans to PDF and the IRIS OCR looks to be working fine as well.
Thanks TeenTitan. I was going to go with SANE and the Scan Again GUI, not even imagining that HP's software would be able to work with SANE.

Is aperature 3.3 not available for snow leopard

I just recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and went to purchase Aperture 3 today. The app store tells me that I had to have OS X 10.74 to purchase. Does this mean that I now have to purchase Lion to be able to use Aperture 3? I was told that it would work on Snow Leopard.

In the upper left corner, choose "About this Mac." The dialog will tell you the OS X version you're running.
Note if you're able to run the Mac App Store already then you must be on 10.6.6 or later. The App Store came with 10.6.6.
You'll still probably want to use "Software Update" under the Apple menu to ensure you're updated to 10.6.8 first.
Do note that Mountain Lion has been announced to be coming out in July (i.e. this month) and will cost $19.99 as an update from either Snow Leopard or Lion. So if you wait until it releases, you get it for $19.99. If you want to buy Lion now it's $29.99, and then you may have to pay another $19.99 to upgrade to Mountain Lion from there.
If it were me, and I had a machine that could run Mountain Lion, I'd personally go that route. You need to go to Apple's Mountain Lion page to see if your machine can run it, though, as some of the machines from 2008 and earlier cannot run it.

IMessage for Snow Leopard (10.6.8)

I am on a MacBook Pro, 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo, with 4GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM, running OS 10.6.8.
I am currently deployed to Afghanistan (p.s. the internet is pretty slow over here).
I always have my iPhone with me for taking pictures, and there are a few hotspots near the USO area where I can access the wifi and use iMessage with friends and family back in the world, email, Facebook, etc..
When I am in my room, I do have wired internet that I pay for through an ISP called sniperhill. I use my MacBook Pro here in my room.
Is there a version of iMessage that I can install on my MacBook Pro to replace iChat and then be able to iMessage my friends and family on their iOS devices (the folks I am messaging all have iPhone 4S or newer). I found a place to download iMessage for Mac, but after a 45+ minute download, it turned out to require 10.7 or later. D'oh!
I use iChat sometimes to video chat with my wife and kids, but they aren't always on the MacBook at the house. If I could iMessage them while in my room on my laptop, then we could coordinate to have them power up and hop in front of the MacBook at home, then I could use FaceTime 1.0.2 to chat with them.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

HI,
Sorry about the delay.
I also see there are 19 "Me Too" clicks.
iMessages is the service run by Apple that basically started with the iOS devices and was a beta for a time in Lion (OS X 10.7) which also was date limited and ended on the 14th December 2012.
It is no only available with the Messages app in Mountain Lion.
FaceTime is available for Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) and can then FaceTime to those iOS devices.

Current iMovie '11 for Snow Leopard?

Hi all,
I'm using an iMac at work that came pre-loaded with iMovie '09. Never had to use it until recently we've started doing some video projects, and I've become extremely frustrated with '09s lack of any sort of normal timeline. I see that '11 offers a timeline once again - great - and was once available for Snow Leopard - even better. But when I hopped into the AppStore I see that the system requirements say OSX 10.7.4 or later... which is Lion.
Is iMovie '11 no longer available for Snow Leopard?
Any suggestions? I'm at the end of my rope with frustration over this iMovie '09 business, but I don't think my work will spring for Final Cut....
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
Matt

So I decieded to try something I took my wife's computer and hooked up my external hard drive to it and copied iMovie11' from her applications folder and then copied it to my applications folder and imovie 11 works offically on 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) on both our computers. So it is possible to get imovie11' on your 10.6.8. OS. You just have to fiqured out a way to get a disk or copy it from another computer. We don't have Mountain Lion but you might be able to try and copy from that and install on Snow Leopard.
Cheers!

Safari for snow leopard

I use SL 10.6.8 and I have safari 5.1.10. I like SL and have no real reason to change for my use. I keep getting asked by Yahoo.to upgrade safari. When I hit software update it tells me there is no safari update. So either Yahoo is wrong or software updae is wrong. Can someone tell me what is or has happened?

You're right - if you have 5.1.10 there's nothing later available for Snow Leopard.

FaceTime for Snow Leopard?

Is FaceTime available for Snow Leopard? I seem to recall it was, and I even seem to recall paying for it at some point, but I don't see it on this particular Mac.
If so, are there steps posted anywhere to obtain it and set it up?

Click here. If you’ve already bought it from your Apple ID, sign into the Mac App Store with it and download FaceTime from the Purchases tab.

What is the latest version of XCode for Snow Leopard?

I have XCode 4.0.2 for Snow Leopard installed. Is that the latest version available for Snow Leopard?
Is Apple pushing us to upgrade to Lion to get a version newer than 4.0.2. I see that XCode 4.2 is available for Lion.
David.

This information might be useful for those who are not members of the $99/year iOS Developer Program. I am not a member, I have Snow Leopard, and I purchased Xcode 4.0 for $5 from the Mac App Store in March 2011. Just for fun I searched the app store for Xcode. As expected, the only search result is Xcode 4.2 with stated minimum requirement 10.7 (Lion). I am curious why it even shows Snow Leopard users the active Free button that implies I can download it. I don't know how the app store works but I assume it would not let me install this on 10.6 Snow Leopard.
But the Purchased view shows Xcode for Snow Leopard. I noticed the button on the right showed Update rather than Installed. Clicking the item name to find details including the version number shows Your request could not be completed. I decided to update in hopes this would be 4.2. I deleted Install Xcode from my Applications folder, restarted the App Store, then pressed the Update button. 1.77GB later I have Install Xcode in my Applications folder, preview shows version 4.2 (used to show 4.0.2),
The installer just finished running, I now have Xcode 4.2 build 4C199. About Xcode.pdf in the Developer folder starts with Developer tools for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and iOS 5. So this is clearly not exactly the same as Xcode 4.2 for Lion. It does include the iOS 5 SDK, LLVM 3.0, etc. Not sure what is different in the Lion build.

IMovie version for Snow Leopard ?

Is iMovie version available for Snow Leopard?

All versions of iMovie from version 6 onwards will work with Snow Leopard.

Safari 5.1.8 for Snow Leopard available

But only as part of a recent security update. Still, those still with Snow should take advantage of the security upgrades that we thought would not happen.
Available through Software Update.

Are you kidding? That would be a HUGE step backward. It's almost as if Apple snuck this into the security update just so they could sabotage Safari for Snow Leopard. Is Apple that desperate to get us to leave 10.6.8 and go to Mountain Lion?
It's really screwed up that I'm now going to avoid a security update just because Apple decided to sneak a Safari update inside of it. This is a highly unusual and suspect way to "update" Safari.

How can I obtain the Pages app which I previously purchased from the App store for Snow Leopard? The only download now available is for Mountain Lion which my computer can't run. Thanks

Try Amazon but look for the iWork suite of software. It's only sold separately as Pages, Keynote, and Numbers from the App Store.

Beta version of FaceTime no longer works on my iMac. Was directed to iTunes store to buy version for Snow Leopard but message tells me that Face Tine not available in UK store ? Don't want to upgrade to Lion yet. Why is FaceTime App for iMac available in USA iTune stores and not UK ?

You wanted to say "for snow leoprad" instead of "for iMac"

Is there a working version of xcode for snow leopard out there?

I downloaded v 4.2 from developer.apple and when I try to install it on my computer it says "unknown installation error occurred" and "you may want to contact the software manufacturer." It doesn't give me anything else...
Similarily, I used adobe flash pro to build my .ipa file and am curious if I even need xcode - is there a working version of Application Loader for Snow Leopard available for download?
Thanks a bunch.

I need to upload my .ipa file to itunes connect...
I have an older mac with snow leopard 10.6.8 and an old version of Xcode (3.2), but no Application Loader to load my .ipa to itunes connect. The Application Loader you can download in itunes connect requres OS 10.7 or higher, and I I can't upgrade my OS without increasing RAM.

Aperture 3.3 for Lion, but... how to install 3.2.4 for Snow Leopard?

New version Aperture (3.3) is not available on Snow Leopard (only Lion). Ok... but how to buy/reinstall Aperture 3.2.4 on my Mac of Snow Leopard?

You still might be able to buy a boxed version of Aperture 3 at a local Apple store, but that will be much more expensive than the download from the App Store.
Since you cannot upgrade your machine to Lion, I'd stick with iPhoto, until you will invest into a new computer. iPhoto libraries now can be opened by Aperture, so any work you invest into an iPhoto library will not be lost, once you transit.
No, I dont' want iPhoto. I need Aperture 3. It was available in the Mac App Store for Snow Leopard for a good price. At this moment I feel just cheated. Many people have a problem now - they have bought and can not update / reinstall. I can not buy. It should not be so. I'm sorry for my english.
