OK to install some apps from 10.5 install disk into MBP w/ 10.6 installed?
I recently re-installed 10.6 on my MBP which originally came with 10.5 installed. I wiped the HD before loading 10.6. After I was done, I noticed I didn't have a lot of the apps that came with 10.5 so I loaded them off of the 10.5 disk using the Apple installer.
I'm just wondering, is this a good idea?
Absolutely no problem installing the 10.5 bundled software (i.e. iLife, Comic Life, etc). You already have the licence for them and they should all work perfectly well. It's really no different from re-installing 10.5 then running the 10.6 retail installer to upgrade.
If you need Rosetta for any legacy apps like Appleworks, note that you may need to install it seperately from the Additional Installations on the 10.6 disc.

I have deleted some apps from iPad.
I have deleted some apps from iPad. When I connect it to Mac, Itunes starts to sync ipad and all apps installed back!!! Why??? I wanted to send one m4a file to iPad, but iTunes started a huge sync process all over 3 hours and + 1 hour I was deleting not needed apps. Please - help! We all need one app iTunes - to have a simple tool to sync devices, but this process became NOT simple. Now I am afraid of it! I want to do everything not to connect my iPad to Mac.
Please - make it simplier! I want to have a control of this process and do what I want to do.Thank you very much)

I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?
You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps. Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with. This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

My iPad air is missing some apps from my phone. It keeps saying, " there is not enough storage available to download...." I purchased additional storage twice, my device now shows 18GB free of a total 25GB, and still I cannot download apps I've had for yrs
iCloud space is for backup only.
You need more local storage; free up space on iPad:

I'm unable to download apps from phone when I got into App Store, it asks for my password but never downloads, I have to hook up to computer to download apps to my phone
Have you tried turning your phone completely off and then back on? After trying that you might want to Reset your phone by depressing the Sleep Button and the Home Button at the same time for at least 15 Seconds. Then try your App Download again. If those efforts don't work there are additional threads about various App Download issues you will want to review.

Installed apps from Macbook Pro Tiger disk to a Powerbook G4
I bought a used powerbook G4 that came with Tiger installed, but no tiger disk included in the sale (so i'll have to buy my own copy of it if i want to reinstall anything). Everything on the machine worked perfect... until one day.... okay here's the dumb thing i did: My friend has a new Macbook Pro (with Intel) and i hoped i could install programs from his Tiger disk that i didn't have on my computer (like Garage Band). So i put in his Tiger disk that came with his Macbook Pro (even though someone had advised me that it wouldn't work on a G4!) and in it i found a package of optional applications. I couldn't find and select Garage Band separately on the disk so i decided to just install all optional apps from that package. I figured my computer wouldn't let me even start all this if the Tiger disk was incompatible with my G4. Well, it did proceed along and I watched as it installed a bunch of standard programs i already had on my computer. But oh well i figured it wouldn't hurt anything to reinstall apps like that. Then, I just couldn't find a way to list and select individual programs to install, so i just gave up on the whole idea of getting my friend's Garage Band.
The next day some of my apps were acting funny. Had problems with Mail, Safari and Itunes. Fortunately, doing an update online fixed mail and safari. But itunes continues to not act right and it's always crashing and i have to force quit. Also my netzero software has become corrupted 2 times since the messing with the Macbook Pro tiger disk, and i've had to reinstall the ISP software. If i buy my own Tiger disk for G4 then i can reinstall itunes completely and hopefully that would solve it's problems. But i'm worried that when i messed with the Intel tiger disk i may have put some code on my hard disk that's harmful and useless to a G4 and could cause further problems down the road.
So my question is: Has anyone heard of this happening before and what would be the best thing for me to do? And i hope that if i must reinstall the whole OSX tiger, that i can use the "archive and install" mode so i won't lose any 3rd party software on my powerbook.
Thankyou for reading.
powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 10.4.6 installed then updated to 10.4.7I would not advise an Archive and Install because it will preserve components of the old system such as your users folder (unless you opt not to do that) which may contain items that are now not compatible. Archive and Install also keeps applications that now are incompatible.
I would recommend the following:
1. Boot from your Tiger DVD. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button, then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Now proceed with OS X installation. -
hi i need to find out if i use icloud which i dont know how to yet to download an app from my ipod to my grandsons new ipad mini will the came come through at the point that it is in, i mean will the app on the ipad be restarted the game
It depends on the game. If the game itself supports iCloud-based saves or account saves (say for instance you login with an email address/password) and is NOT tied to the device's universally unique identifier (UUID), then everything may transfer over to the new device. But then again, it may not. As mentioned, UUID is used on some games/apps and ties that particular device to the save game (or other data).
The only way to know for sure is to install the game/app on the new device and try it. You'll need to be using the same Apple ID to download the game to the new device (or repurchase it if it's under a different Apple ID) and you'll probably need to also login/sign in to any associated accounts for the game. -
My Ipod touch wont allow me to get into itunes. So I downloaded some apps through istore onto the itunes on my computer, yet it still wont allow me to sync them to my ipod. It doesnt even give me the option to do so. The only things syncing to my ipod are music and pictures. Can anyone please help me??
You need to restore the iPod on the new computer. You can only sync apps (and some other stuff) from different computers/libraries but you can manage music and some other stuff among different computers/libraries.
You need to restore you iPod and see the following regarding the pairing error message.

I cannot delete some apps from my Iphone.
I cannot delete certain apps from my Iphone. (Not System Apps) They are blacked out, if I press and hold the app the option is there to delete it however it does not delete. After pressing the X it says "deleting xxxx will also delete all of its data" I click delete, but nothing happens. I verified that i do not have any restrictions. Any suggestions?
Hi andyhany,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the apps may not have downloaded to your iPhone completely. I recommend trying the solution from this discussion thread first:
App updates won't download on my iPhone, they just say waiting.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.
Regards,
Jeremy
