Need Tiger for iPhone, but will my G4 support Leopard?

I bought my g4 Powerbook in Spring '04. I need to update to at least Tiger for the iPhone, but given that Leopard will be out in a few weeks, I may just wait to get the new OS.
My real question is whether or not my computer will support Leopard. If not, there's no point in waiting. There seems to be little news regarding where Apple will make the cutoff for necessary compatability for old Macs wishing to upgrade.
Any information is greatly appreciated.

Hi there,
sorry for the late reply, but even though you said that all the G4's will be supported, does this mean that my G4 Digital Audio will run leopard? Granted that I haven't upgraded my processor yet. My ram is at 1.5GB. I also use my mac for everyday tasks and am not a video designer nor a gamer, therefore I don't need the expensive power overhaul of the Mac Pro machine.
Please let me know if Leopard will run on the Digital Audio G4.

  • HT4528 hi, my iPhone is already completely updated and I want my iMessages to go to my phone number, however my phone number shows up on the settings screen for that, but will not let me select it to be used. How do I fix that?

    Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
    Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
    The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
    Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
    I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
    One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
    Thanks for your comments.

  • Rumor confirmed:  CS4 will remain 32-bit for Mac, but will be 64-bit in Windows

    Photoshop, Lightroom, and Adobe's 64-bit roadmap
    http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/
    CS4 will remain 32-bit for Mac, but will be 64-bit in Windows.

    i For the most part, it seems like most of us in prepress/photography/creative are fine with our Macs with 4 to 8 or 16 gb of memory installed. A 64 bit app isn't going to change MY life or how I work.
    Well it may do, considering the roof is well below the ram capacity and the OS has to do the hard work.
    "In our testing, when an app isn't using a large data set (one that would otherwise require memory swapping), the speedup due to running in 64-bit mode is around 8-12%."
    Look to when that actually starts happening...its not where your ram roof is.
    Probably a cross grade here...we've been running 64 bit with 3d for a while now, and shifting that roof has allowed much more heavy scene data to be created easily.
    Read the article, it's not just PS that's affected...there may be limited scope for the need in AI, but AE would see the light.
    Put it this way, we can see the advantages...and obviously adobe can...they just havent been capable of applying that to the apple yet.

  • HT1414 my iphone 4 doesnt turn on, i tried everything and when im restoring my phone in the screen is only the apple logo and in my mac says waiting for iphone but is not doing anything . just waiting and waiting

    my iphone 4 doesnt wants to turn on. i tried every step i found to restart it.. and is not working..
    i restored it with my mac.. and after that the apple logo is in the screen and in my computer says "waiting for iphone"
    but is like that for hours and nothing happen. i really tried everything.. i have the most new version of itunes.. my comp is ok. everything is ok..
    i dont know what else to do.. some help?

    First, to get the tray open. You need to push harder.
    Secondly, Does it have a wall power plug? If the battery is dead, it's won't work. Try to charge it with the wall plug adopter and not through the computer. Some USBs don't put out power so, are you pluging it into a Powered USB?
    Try these and let us know.
    OH! If you got it wet, you may have ended it. Did you get it wet? You could try putting it in a bag of rice, and hope it works.

  • Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.

    Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.   Keeps telling me "unable to verify address" and says it is sending me a verification link to my email address but I never get anything.   Crazy. 
    After a while it tells then me that it cannot verify my email address because of a network connection  ("Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again. ")
    Does anyone have any ideas?

  • Why is visual voicemail free for iPhone but not for other phones?

    I recently activated an iPhone on my line -- temporarily -- and found that visual voicemail was included and didn't cost a dime. Can anyone explain why visual voicemail is free for iPhones but if you want it for any other phone it bears a monthly charge?

    Also VVM is also free for everyone. The $2.99 is for the premium version. You can search the FAQ and there's a pricing list and shows what you get.

  • Can you build a battery for iphone that will last till the end of the day?

    Can you build a battery for iphone that will last till the end of the day?

    No, I can't. I've never taken any classes in either electrical or chemical engineering.
    While you're looking for someone who can, you may want to try searching the forums for the many other threads that give tips on extending your battery life (things like turning off Background Refresh). You may also want to look at battery cases such as those made by Mophie.
    Best of luck.

  • Running Snow Leopard but need Tiger for ONE application... Possible?

    Hello all... I currently have an intel Macbook Pro which is about 3.5 yrs old. My OS is Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and I love it.. however, I also need to use an old version of Avid Xpress Pro which recommends running 10.4.6-10.4.8 (Tiger). This is the only application that I have that requires this OS... Unfortunately, I need the app for now.
    My question is this:
    Can I partition (or by any other means) a portion of my Mac for Tiger 10.4.8 and the rest for Snow Leopard?
    If so how do I go about it?
    Many thanks!!

    Having the original disks does not matter... the question is, what did your Mac _ship with_? If it shipped with Tiger, then you can certainly partition and install Tiger on a second partition. Of course, if it were me, I would probably just buy an external drive and install Tiger on that, but that's just personal preference. If you choose to partition, just make sure you've got a good set of backups. You should be able to do it without erasing, but should not gamble your data on it going off without a hitch.
    OTOH, if your Mac shipped with something other than Tiger, you simply cannot run Tiger on it. See:
