Not possible to install Leopard after HD-exchange

My HD crashed, the new one (Seagate momentus 7200.2 160 GB sata2 8 mb gfor) is already inside the MBP. But it isn´t possible to install Leopard! "You cannot install Mac OS X on this volume. To enable installation on this volume open Disk Utility menu and repartition this disk as GUID Partition Table..." I have tried to repartition the disk, but nothing happens. What can be wrong?

When you use Disk Utility to repartition the disk--and this will erase everything on the disk, but I assume you don't care since it is new--you need to click the "Options..." button in the partition pane and select the GUID option. Otherwise, it will just repartition it the same way it is currently partitioned, which you've noticed isn't very useful.

  • Multiple usage of Source System is not possible with installed DMIS version on source

    Hello folks!
    I`ve got a problem trying to adjust the Data Replication to SAP BW (on HANA) using SAP LT Replication Server.
    I`ve deleted one connection and after that I`m trying to create new one through  Configuration & Monitoring Dashboard (transaction LTR) with the same source / target systems.
    As result when on the second step (Specify Source System) I specify RFC destination of the source system it appears an error with text
    "Multiple usage of Source System is not possible with installed DMIS version on source".
    But there`s no any adjusted connection in system now..
    Please, help me to understand  how to fix that problem, I can`t find a solution

    Hi,
    When you say that you 'deleted one connection', did you delete the RFC connection or the SLT Configuration? If it is not a real multiple usage scenario, then deactivate the 'allow multiple usage' flag, else install the correct DMIS version on both SLT and source.
    Thanks

  • Why it is not possible to install apps on an SD card on a Win 8.1 tablet?

    Why it is not possible to install apps on an SD card on a Win 8.1 tablet? If it is possible to install apps on SD card in Windows phone 8.1, why is it not possible on Windows 8.1? What sort of design philosophy you follow that gives better features on
    a mobile version of the OS but not on the parent OS? Kindly explain if you can!

    why is it not possible to install apple remote desktop (from appstore bought earlier) on my new imac 21?

    You haven't given us much to go on here.  What exactly are you doing and what exactly happens when you try?  Which specific version of each program are you using?  (Go to Help>About...)
    On a side note, a simple, brief thread title is all that's needed.  Something like "After Effects Issue" would be fine.  You don't need the full question there.

  • Possible to Install Leopard on External HD and Boot on Another Mac?

    Is it possible to install the Leopard upgrade DVD onto an External HD, AND THEN use the external HD to boot Leopard onto another Mac? Also, since the upgrade disc is an "upgrade," would I have to first install Tiger onto the External HD?
    If possible...
    Am I able to create an External Boot Drive that can boot both onto a PPC Mac and also onto an Intel Mac? Or will I have to create separate partitions?
    Lastly, can Intel Macs boot from an External USB Drive? Or are FireWire Drives required? Thanks!

    Yes, you can install on an external drive and boot the Mac. I do it all the time.
    I'm not 100% sure whether the same drive can boot PPC and Intel Macs -- I don't think so because PPC macs require Mac formatting and Intel Macs require GPT formatting to boot.
    Intel Macs can boot off both USB and Firewire external drives. PPC Macs can only boot off Firewire external drives. In any case, Firewire is better as it's quite a bit faster.

  • Re-installing Leopard after installing Snow Leopard?

    I recently installed Snow Leopard, but want to re-install Leopard instead without losing all of my current data (Applications, folders...aka everything) - is this possible?

    First, note that above I said: "final step is to do an erase and install of Sno." Where I said Sno, I meant Leo.
    You can do your reinstall of Leo more simply than I mentioned before. What I was am trying to do is to give you the best chance of moving back to Leo successfully without having to reinstall your apps. What I was going to tell you about is complex.
    To avoid the complexity, here is what I recommend. Make the Sno clone I mentioned before for safety and to have easy access to your data for future drag and drop. Now, just do an erase and install of Leo on your internal drive; reinstall your apps by hand; and drag and drop you data into the appropriate folders on your new install.
    If you don't want to reinstall your apps by hand, then I'd recommend that you go the more complex route I started describing. I am hoping that you don't have so many apps that you won't choose the more complex procedure. I apologize for the confusion I probably have created. Just let me know which way you would prefer to proceed.

  • Is it possible to install leopard from external USB DVD drive?

    Hi all,
    I've read through the various posts on the subject and there doesn�t seem to be a definitive answer on this. I've got a Lacie USB2 DL DVD drive which I'm trying to use to install leopard on an earlier MacBook Pro (core duo 2.0ghz). I've tried the various suggestions (hold c on boot, hold option key on boot, set dvd as startup drive), and so far been unsuccessful. The drive is just not recognized.
    The DVD media is fine(I've got family edition of Leopard), I've successfully installed it on my G5. The Lacie drive recognizes it fine, when I'm in tiger on MBP and insert the disk it is mounted as I would expect. I did try dbl-clicking the install icon as well (in case you were wondering)
    So, does anyone have any other ideas for me to try, or should I go and get a refund on the Lacie drive? The guys in the store (Apple authorized reseller, not Apple Store) assured me it would work, so I don't want to look like a clown if it is possible and I'm just doing it wrong
    Anyway, thanks in advance for any replies.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. Yes the MBP is currently running Tiger, I want to flatten this with a fresh install of Leopard. I can view the install DVD when in Tiger currently.
    I haven't tried what you have suggested, but I have seen various posts suggesting this approach. I've also seen several posts explain how to create a partition on an external firewire Harddrive and this seems to have worked for various people.
    This would however mean that I didn't really need the external Lacie drive at all, as I've got access to my G5s DVD drive over the network. The more I search on this, the more convinced I am the USB drive was a bad idea.
    Once again thank for the response.

  • Can't install Leopard After installing Linux

    I installed Debian on my power book G4 for a work project knowing I was going to buy Leopard and install that any way. Having finished with Linux I purchased Leopard but I can't get any further than "You nee to turn of your computer" screen that comes up after a few seconds of reading the ROM. I have tried trashing the Linux build with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=4k count =100 which trashes the Linux image but does not help me install. Can anyone suggest anything as I want my apple back

    Have you tried forcing the notebook to boot from the optical drive by holding the 'C' key immediately after starting the computer? (Obviously you must put the disc in too.) Hold the 'C' key down until the grey Apple appears, then you can release it. Getting the computer started, holding the 'C' key and popping the disc into the computer all at once can be a handful so sometimes you have to power down the computer and start it a second time.

  • Still can't install Leopard after...

    After reading post thread ID#1667234 same MacMini specs. I have a used late 2006 with current firmware...
    Model Name: Mac mini
    Model Identifier: Macmini1,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
    Processor Speed: 1.66 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 2

    SMC Version: 1.3f4
    Serial Number: G87243UBW0C
    I can't tell about the RAM issue, I'm assuming it would have the original RAM because of where it came from. I don't know if it is able to be opened anyhow. I have plenty of room left 42GB.
    My hard drive passes verification and so does the password verification.
    Any ideas how to get this installed? Wipe hard drive first?'
    If so, how do I do it?

    Boot with the install disk, holding down the D key (should say so on your disk) launches the Apple Hardware Test program. Run it at least twice, using the extended tests. That checks out the RAM. If your installed RAM passes, then download and run Rember. Once the RAM's been cleared, reboot with the install disk, holding down the C key, select your language, then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu and repair the disk. If it passes, then you can erase and reformat the internal HD. Note that this wipes out the current data, so make a bootable backup/clone onto an external HD (preferably FireWire) and test it before continuing, then after erasing the HD, use the Erase & Install option to install Leopard and migrate from the backup/clone.

  • HELP"apple application support not found when installing itunes after a hard drive crash and replace

    HELP"   error "apple application support not found" when downloading itunes after a hard drive crash and replacement????

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
