Old software

Hi
I have just purchased the Officejet Pro 6830 and have hit a problem as the operating system on my Mac is 10.6.8.
I have tried to install an update but cannot do it (I think the Mac is to old). Is there any way around as the printers useless if I can't install teh printer software???
Thanks

@Dago53, Welcome to the HP Community
I have personally checked out the available drivers for the Officejet 6830, and unfortunately this model is not supported on 10.6, only 10.7 and higher, therefore an upgraded OS X would be needed for the printer to be compatible and install properly. I left a screen image below for you to see as well.
I hope this info helps you out! If you wish to send me a "thanks for attempting to help", click the thumbs up icon below

How do i install the old software on my mac

how do i install the old software on my mac, i hate Yosemite

Please explain me as in what kind of old software do you intend to install on your macbook pro.
-    Please tell what OS X do you wish to run on your macbook, as you said you hate Yosemite.......??
-    Do you wish to do a clean install of your favoured OS X and later reinstall your old software...??
-    Also, do you want to restore the entire system files means the OS X along with the old software or just want to re install your old software on the existing OS X ...??

Using old software on macbook

Can I use my old final cut software without upgrading to the universal bi on my mackbook including photshop etc.
Again I just want install my old software.... is this possible.
thank you for your help.
1.5ghz Powerbook G4, 1ghz Yikes, 3.4ghz Vaio, Shuffle Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Yes it's possible.
It will run a much slower speed, but yes it is possible.
I tested my FCP non UB on my MacBook before I crossgraded and the performance was much slower than the updated UB version.
It will run smoothly enough to edit.

Mac book pro -intel duo - will my old software work with it?

Not sure if I should get the 2.4 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo Mac book pro as I have heard old software will not work on it and I really do not want to have to buy new software, just to add on to the cost.
Can anyone help.
The software I have that I want to work with it is:
Micro Soft Office Version 10.0.0
Photoshop Version 7.0
Final cut Pro HD Version 4.5
I am have OS X TIGER 10.4.6 although the operating system that will come with the new Mac book Pro will be leopard - I guess.
Can any one help with my dilemma?
THANKS

Microsoft Office v.X will work fine, Adobe Photoshop 7 should be able to do its thing as well although you might have problems installing it (some of the Adobe installers don't work right). However, it's not recommended that you use less than FCP 5.1.
Sure having to upgrade software is a pain and can substantially add to the cost of transitioning to Intel system but as time most applications will need to be upgraded anyway. It just pushes the costs forward a bit. Just remember you pay upgrade costs and not new package costs.

Restore from your backup?
What happened that your old software is not on your iPhone?
Did you restore the iPhone? Did you update the iOS version?
Need a little more detail as to what you were doing when the
software disappeared.
Or are you asking how to return to a previous version of iOS?
If that is the real question, the answer is that you cannot.
There is no supported way to revert to an earlier version of iOS.

Hi, can I go back from software version OS X 10.8.1 (12B19) to my old software?

Hi, can I go back from software version OS X 10.8.1 (12B19) to my old software?

Which version old software?
Which exact model computer?
Did you make a complete clone backup of your old system before upgrading and are you prepared to have things revert to that?
Usually downgrading operating system requires a complete erase of the computer. You then clone a previous backup, or completely re-install the operating system and all software plus data files you put somewhere for safekeeping while doing all the other things. Also some of your data files may have been irrevocably updated to newer versions that will not open on the old system. Basically, downgrading is not simple unless you prepared for the eventuality in advance.

Reverting to old software

I just connected my iPhone1 to itunes after a long time and updated it. Now my phone no longer works, saying that my SIM card is not supported. How can I revert back to the old software?

Rolling back to previous versions of iOS is not supported.
Regardless, doing so cannot fix a SIM card not supported message.
Try the basic troubleshooting of reset, restart, restore. If none of those resolve the issue, then either the SIM card is bad/failed/not supported or the SIM card reader in the device has failed.

Clearing out old software

I am trying to clear out all remnants of old software, before upgrading to Snow Leopard. (I don't want to do a clean install, just put everything in order before doing a normal one.) For example, I discovered that my trial of Retrospect 8 had left the engine running, so to speak. I just now managed to remove that (after a bit of research).
I also see that MacFUSE has left a preferences pane. I don't know what this software is, but suspect it was installed by some other software. Anyway, it has a button to Remove the software, but when I press it, it says the software doesn't seem to be installed. How do I get rid of this preferences pane, and make sure all trace of MacFUSE are gone?
And how do I make sure there aren't other half-uninstalled things lying around?...
TIA

I can't get the CS4 Design Standard to download onto my computer... I just purchased a new MAC and I can't install my old software.

I'm having the same issue. All my applications transferred over. Lightroom is working, but when I went to edit a picture in Photoshop, I got an error message. It told me to restart, but the program still won't open after restart. It says licensing has stopped working, but what does that mean? I can't tell whether it's unsupported/blocked, or if it's a malfunction. The error code is 150:30 See screen shot.

Old software on a new Mac

I'm not sure if this is the right forum thread to post this, and I apologize if it isn't.
I am happily awaiting delivery of my new Intel Imac! I was wondering if it is okay to put old software on a new computer. My G4 is officially dead, and I have an old version of Photoshop that I would like to continue to use until I can afford the software suite for the new computer. Is this okay to do?
Thanks,
Barb the Computer Illiiterate

Photoshop (an OS X version) will run on Intel Macs, however it will run in the Rosetta emulator so expect performance to be slower than you might expect.
Of course the older the version the less compatible it may be with the version of OS X that will come installed on your new computer. OS 9 versions can not run on Intel Macs.
You should have a minimum of 1 GB of RAM installed (2 GB will be better) because Rosetta will demand more resources.

Old Software with Parallel Dongle or Hardware Key

Hello,
I'm trying to run old software that uses a HASP/hardware key/dongle on the parallel port. Any helpful ideas on how to get the software to see it in Virtual PC, XP Mode?
Much appreciated,
Dave

Hi,
Parallel ports are not supported by XP Mode in Windows 7.

Only by purchasing a newer model iPod.
To more easily find compatible apps for your 2G
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

I in stalled Keynote 5.2 on MacBook Pro but it won't read older Keynote 2.0 files. Is this expected, meaning I have to use old software only to present these files?

I do not know, but it sure is expected- macs never back-compatible.

I have some OLD software on my Mac Pro. How do I know if it will work with Snow Leopard? Currently I'm using 10.5.8.

Michael Wasley's link (wikidot) is as accurate as any I can find.
It's still wise to check with the vendors' websites for compliance.
Biggest source of problems seems to be printer and scanner drivers.
Appleworks 6.2.9 works fine in SL under Rosetta (note; Rosetta is installed by default in Leopard - in SL you may have to select it from the optional installations).
Check particularly with Adobe products; some you'd think should work ok suddenly don't.
