Old wine version

Dear all,
i would like to have an older version of wine (pre wine 0.9) because wine 0.9 does't run flash MX if i am good informed.

For the record, you can use Arch CVS to get PKGBUILD of previous versions: http://cvs.archlinux.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/

[How?]More than 1 Wine version simultaneously

As a frequent Arch user, I want to broaden my knowledge and skills with Linux - this time, I'd like to be able to have 2 Wine versions - new 1.1.38 and stable 1.0.1. Right now I only have 1.1.38 installed under /opt/wine/. In q4wine it's possible to set different Wine versions, so it looks like something entirely doable and not that hard.
I looked under the PKGBUILD of wine-stable at AUR to see where it installs (I hoped for something like /opt/wine-stable/ to make my life easier), but it didn't tell me much. Because of my newbieness, I don't understand the relevant part:
build() {
ar x $(basename ${source[0]}) || return 1
tar xf data.tar.lzma || return 1
cp -rf etc/ usr/ "$pkgdir"/
But it doesn't look like it's getting installed to /opt/wine-101 or something close.
So, my questions are:
1) Where does wine-stable from AUR install as default?
2) How can I change it to install the binaries to /opt/wine-stable?
3) Will it read my current virtual drive ~/.wine/drive_c/ with any problem? Or I need to setup a separate drive?
4) Will there be two separate instances of winecfg?
Thanks for your help! It is greatly appreciated!

I Ctrl+C'ed it, because obviously it needs sudo permissions. But I don't know if I should run makepkg as sudo, because 1) it could be dangerous, since the PKGBUILD is yet unproved to be safe 2) there is something like fakeroot to use in PKGBUILDs, no? How do I do this?

[SOLVED] Downgrading Wine versions?

The game I'm trying to play keeps crashing after several minutes of play. Upon researching the problem, it seems that this is a confirmed problem with Wine version 1.1.38, which is the version currently in the AUR. Downgrading to 1.1.37 supposedly fixes the problem.
How do I do this, however? I know pacman has a downgrade feature but as I understand it only works off cached packages, and I never had 1.1.37 installed on this system so I don't think it can downgrade for me. On the AUR page I didn't see any link to old versions. Supposedly the game in question works flawlessly under 1.1.37 (it had gold and platinum appDB ratings on old versions, dropped to bronze with the latest).

Alright I see the part of PKGBUILD you're talking about. I changed the source line but how do I get the sum for it other than downloading it and calculating it myself?
Also, it says "sha256sums" and not "md5sum". I assume that I cannot calculate the md5sum and have it work there?

Need old wine 0.9.15 for Fallout 1

It is recommended on the Wine AppDB that Wine versions 0.9.15 and earlier are better for playing games that are heavy on DirectDraw like Fallout 1 and 2. This is because that the DirectDraw implementation was rewritten for better or worse in 0.9.16. Unfortunately there are no binaries for that version for Arch.
Anyway I just modified the version number in the PKGBUILD for wine from the ABS to see if that worked. It started compiling, "yay" I thought untill it died trying to do wine-0.9.15/dlls/gdi/freetype.c
Luckily I have access to Codeweavers' old builds, but I don't know which one was just before 0.9.15 since the version numbers don't match.

I have to use NeoOffice to open my documents of many years of work.
Is there an option to organize a corporate complain to Apple to be heard?

We have been doing nothing but for 10 months.
Here is the response:

New firefox installed - didn't give me the option of not installing it before telling me that (essential to me) add-ons were incompatible. How can I get the old firefox version back?

I would not have installed the new firefox if I had known in advance that two of my essential add-ons would no longer work. Now I want the old firefox version back so I can continue to function until the add-ons are updated. Suggestion: when you notify user that add-ons are incompatible, give the option of reverting to an earlier firefox version.

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

I use an Iphone 4 which had to be replaced recently. However when i did a backup it was on the new IOS version 7, but now that my phone was replaced and i am back on the old IOS version 6 i how do i restore my backup??

I use an Iphone 4 which had to be replaced recently. However when i did a backup it was on the new IOS version 7, but now that my phone was replaced and i am back on the old IOS version 6 i how do i restore my backup??
When i try to restore my Back up using Itunes this is the message i get - "Unable to restore backup as the software is old - Please setup as a new device and then try to restore your backup" - Please advise. If i do so are there any chances of loosing my data. At this point in time i would be happy if i could just retreive my contacts list. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Nope - you cannot restore a backup from a newer iOS version on to a device running an older iOS version. The reverse works, but in your case to use your backup, you must update to iOS 7.0.3 - no other option if you want to use that backup.

ITunes says my iPhone 4 is updated, but I've got the old Bluetooth version and haven't got the new menues? Music that i've loaded to iTunes directly is not synced to the iPhone either, but the other way it syncs...

iTunes says that my iPhone is updated, and I've done all the updates, but I've still got an old Bluetooth version and not the new menues. If I download music to iTunes directly that music does not transfer to the iPhone when I sync it to iTunes, but music from the iPhone is copied to iTunes... Any one else who has experienced this and/or have a solution? I'm having big problems with using bluetooth handsfree and I've heard that got better with the new bluetoothversion.

Doing a factory reset will delete your Firefox install. Even if you move the app to the sdcard.

Differences between old & new version

Hello folks,
I got the new version of iMovie but can't find all the functions that I had with the old one version.
For example how is it possible to add the "rallenty" function?
How to modify audio settings to the mic (example: echo, cathedral...)?
How to add effects like rain?
Hope you'll help me.
Already thanks,
Irene

Why doesn't Verizon just fix it?

HT1338 looking for an old mail version

Hi, i'm looking for an old MAIL version for 10,6,8 OSX.
I can't find it in the installation CD. I can't find it on the web.. Someone coud help me ? Thanks

Yes. The mail version you require is 4.6 (1085). This should be on the Snow Leopard Combo update per the link below.
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
If you are still on 10.6.8 it will not hurt your files to download and apply it but be aware, it is a big update and takes some time.
Oh, and if you do take up the Combo download, there are several software updates you must follow up with, dealing with security and iTunes.

Glenn,
I tried upgrading to leopard, even bought the software and brought it home but it wouldn't let me. So i went back to apple, gave them the specifications of the machine and been told my machine is simply too old for leopard. This is incredible to me because it really isn't THAT old (i think just a little over 6 years maybe) and yet i'm left out on the curb when it comes to using newer apple products. I understand technology moves on but the mindset that i am supposed to dump a perfectly working machine after a couple of years or face not being able to use any other apple product is counter to what thought apple was about.
